"... It's Elysia."

Immediately, not only the Golden Courtyard, but every spectator who witnessed this scene screamed in surprise.

This reversal was so explosive that it caused a huge uproar.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Elysia stared in shock.

"How could it be Sister Elysia?!"

Pardo fell into a daze.

Kalpas reacted quickly, staring at Yaqing with murderous eyes.

From the very beginning, just like his character in the story, he didn't believe that Sakura was the traitor who killed Kevin and Elysia. But now Sue is telling them that Sakura's mask is stained with Elysia's blood.

"It seems... I still can't clear my name of suspicion."

Sakura gave a bitter smile.

Based on the current situation, she is the prime suspect. First, she retrieved the repaired Purifying Thunder of Seven Sins from Vill-V, then she put on the mask that she only wore when carrying out missions, and that night she appeared outside the archives room.

She had far too much of a chance to commit the crime, including the time, the weapon, and the circumstances.

"It absolutely can't be the eldest sister!"

The CPU in Ling's little brain was spinning wildly.

She absolutely refused to believe that her eldest sister could be a traitor.

"Could it be that an enemy has appeared in the Elysian Realm, and Big Sister and Sister Elysia were fighting side by side, and she accidentally got involved with Sister Elysia..."

The sound of the bell grew fainter and fainter, and the speaker became increasingly insecure.

She knew, of course, how slim the chances were.

The fact that Elysia and Sakura could team up to fight, ultimately resulting in Elysia's death and Sakura's uncertain fate, suggests a terrifyingly weak fighting force.

Kevin and Aponia...

These are the two people that Suzu only thought of.

However, given that Kevin has already died at the hands of the mastermind, Aponia has no reason to harm Elysia.

The most likely explanation is that Sakura ambushed Elysia, thus getting her blood on her.

"Yaqing, I won't believe you this time!"

Elysia turned her pretty face away, as if she was about to cry at any moment.

Eden frowned when Sue revealed that the cherry blossom mask contained Elysia's blood.

"Elysia, Sakura is indeed highly suspicious, but the greater the suspicion, the less likely it is to be true."

"Huh?"

Elysia couldn't understand the meaning of Eden's words for a moment.

"Just like I said from the beginning, the screenwriter is making us lean towards Sakura as the mastermind. He keeps imposing this idea on us and keeps making Sakura a suspect."

"But the more suspicious something is, the less likely it is to be true."

Eden has figured out the screenwriter's ideas.

The more you sense someone is about to be harmed, the less likely you are to strike; conversely, the more you sense someone is not about to be harmed, the more likely you are to strike.

"Really?"

Elysia pinned her hopes on the answer Eden would give.

"Certainly."

In truth, Eden wasn't entirely certain either.

A strange light flashed in Vill-V's eyes.

She had a strange feeling that her character's reputation might be in jeopardy.

She genuinely suspected that outsiders had invaded Elysian Realm.

Even Kevin's plan...

The Big V Teacher has already guessed the general idea.

"Hahaha... hahahahahahahaha!!!"

Upon hearing the answer from Su, Kalpas suddenly burst into uncontrollable laughter.

"In the end, the one who made the stupid mistake... was actually me?"

Even now, Kalpas still refuses to believe that Ying is a traitor. He only feels that he is foolish, foolish enough to place his hopes on others to prove Ying's innocence.

The enraged Kalpas transformed into Mad King amidst raging flames.

Hua, acting on his warrior instincts, immediately rushed forward and stood in front of Su.

This battle was ultimately unavoidable.

Hua confronts Kalpas head-on, while Su distracts Kalpas's spirit.

Even though the two of them tried their best, they were no match for Kalpas.

"Today, the outcome will be the same as when your captain died. You can only watch helplessly as the flames consume everything... and you... will have accomplished nothing."

"If you are truly as omnipotent as you portray yourself, then why... were you unable to save your own mentor? Answer me!"

Kalpas unconditionally attacked the two of them, not only in combat but also in words.

"That's a bit much..."

Little Knowledge Shiqi almost lost his footing.

"That's what I think too."

Pardo nodded.

"But if you put it on a raging Jie, it feels perfectly normal."

"Kitty, are you saying I'm like a raging wild beast?!"

Kalpas snorted coldly.

Pardo shivered instantly.

"Brother Jie... that's not what I meant."

The plot gradually unfolded in the direction Su predicted. Kalpas finally became serious. Su knew that the attack Finality was one that they could not withstand at this moment, so he made up his mind to use his trump card.

However, the result was beyond everyone's expectations, and even Su opened her eyes.

The powerful blow did not land on them, but on the ground, or rather, it attacked the Elysian Realm.

"This is the last time, and you... will no longer have the chance to stop me."

Kalpas coldly left behind a final warning before turning and departing.

Hua wanted to persuade her to stay, but Su stopped her.

Although they were reluctant to admit it, they had indeed been outmaneuvered by Kalpas. From beginning to end, Kalpas had no intention of fighting them to the death, but rather used Su's opening of his eyes to tear a crack in the existence of the Elysian Realm.

That final blow, prepared for the Finality, was the last straw. From then on, it could gradually destroy the space of the Elysian Realm along this crack.

"His goal is not to kill everyone. On the contrary, he wants to destroy everything except Flame-Chasers."

Su was quite moved.

Hua found this unbelievable, finding it hard to believe that Kalpas could have made such an arrangement, and at the same time, she was worried about Kalpas destroying the Elysian Realm.

Su, however, felt that Kalpas's plan might not be impossible to execute. Regardless of the traitor's motives, he wouldn't stand idly by and watch the Elysian Realm be destroyed. Even if he didn't reveal any flaws, the plan would inevitably be disrupted.

Everyone was shocked.

It wasn't because of anything else, but because of Kalpas's plan.

This is a series of interconnected steps, something that couldn't possibly have been devised by Kalpas.

"Holy crap! Is this really a plan that Kalpas could devise?! First, he feigned rage to keep everyone in the dark, and then he punched Elysian Realm in the head!"

Little Knowledge blurted out in disbelief.

"Was Brother Jie really this smart?"

Pardo blurted it out without thinking, then quickly covered her mouth the next second.

"Ha, you all think I'm a beast, then I'll be a beast for once."

Kalpas tribulations sneered.

He's short-tempered, but he's not an idiot.

When two people are playing chess and one side is at a disadvantage, the first thing they should think of is not to admit defeat, but to pick up the chessboard and smash it on the other person's head.

Playing chess in physics is still playing chess.

Kalpas chose this path at this moment.

While everyone else was racking their brains to find evidence and clues to prove who the werewolf was, Kalpas chose to flip the table.

"Little mouse, are you really not threatened by the Kalpas?"

Mobius looked at her man with a serious expression.

She was unwilling to believe that Kalpas had transformed from a brainless brute into a brute with a brain.

She's more inclined to believe that Kalpas threatened the screenwriter in private.

"Mobius, what do you mean?!"

That's exactly what I mean!

Mobius remained defiant.

"In fact, Kalpas is gentle at heart. Even when he is angry, he has never hurt anyone. Controlling anger is much more difficult than venting it."

Aponia spoke gently.

However, it is still incredible that Kalpas was able to devise such a plan.

In their minds, there has always been only one definition of Kalpas.

That's combat, awesome!

The sudden contrast caught the audience off guard.

"My goodness, even Kalpas has learned to make plans. Pardo, you're in a bit of danger."

"Ah?!"

"You might very well be the mastermind behind this."

"Little Knowledge, you must be joking!"

Pardo was completely stunned.

Chapter 552 The confrontation between Kalpas and the mastermind behind the scenes.

The camera then shifts to Kalpas as he leaves.

It was in a boundless darkness that Kalpas woke up in an unfamiliar place. Before he could react, he seemed to see something inexplicable.

A person who looked exactly like Kalpas appeared before him.

"Who are you?"

Kalpas questioned.

The person opposite, who looked exactly like Kalpas, actually admitted to being Kalpas, but their tone didn't sound like Kalpas's at all. Instead, Kalpas felt that the other person's tone was more like Elysia's.

"Is this the real culprit?"

Vill-V became interested.

They certainly knew the mastermind wouldn't reveal themselves so quickly, but they never expected the mastermind to appear in Kalpas's appearance.
