The Villainess's Prying Eyes / Eden Awakens

Gwen casually rubbed the soft, Valkyrie Quicksilver hair on her face, which was also beaming with a smile, and said with a laugh.

However, what Gwen didn't notice was the strange look in Seele when she looked at him—

"Turn out to be...

As expected... Seele isn't anything special..."

These words involuntarily surfaced in the girl's mind.

This time, even Black Seele didn't know what to say and could only remain silent.

She's not even as good as Seele; at least Seele had that Invitation Letter too.

After Seele chose to Soul Binding, she could no longer see Seele's chat with Gwen.

In the girl's melancholy thoughts, a ray of light as bright as the sun shone on the rainy street, and the drizzling rain in the sky stopped at that moment.

After the light faded, a figure as dazzling as the sun stood in the center of the street, appearing even more sacred and majestic against the backdrop of the prisoners on both sides of the street.

Chapter 377 The Bad Woman's Spying.

"It's getting late, so we'll be leaving now. Please contact us if you need anything."

Holding Seele and Valkyrie Quicksilver Night in his hands, Gwen gave Kallen one last instruction, then his wings of light flashed, and his tall figure soared into the sky, leaving a dazzling trail in the dark night.

To ensure their safety, Gwen placed various colored barriers of the Reality Layer on Seele and Valkyrie Quicksilver to guarantee their safety when they escaped the World Bubble.

"Seele, under the Valkyrie Quicksilver, we are about to begin escaping the World Bubble."

"Yes, Brother Gwen, don't worry about us."

Hearing Gwen's voice, which sounded deeper than usual, Seele, pulled by the Valkyrie Quicksilver, nodded and loudly responded to Gwen—

Although Valkyrie Quicksilver is much older than Seele in terms of physical age, Seele is more like the older sister among the two.

"Hold on tight!"

Within Apollo, Gwen gave his final instructions, and the energy that had been gathering within him suddenly surged forth. Apollo's towering figure shone like the true sun, and the power of the Mustard Seed in Sumeru was activated, causing ripples to spread through the space, as if a curtain was being shaken.

In an instant, the shaking reached its limit, causing the space here to shatter abruptly.

And with the help of this shattered space, that figure, as radiant as the sun, vanished from the world.

The next moment, the shattered space was restored to its original state, with only ripples remaining to prove what had just happened.

"Wow..."

After the intense light, which was difficult to completely block out even through hands and eyelids, dissipated, Valkyrie Quicksilver tentatively opened her eyes and couldn't help but gasp in surprise—

What met her eyes was a deep blue color, which subconsciously reminded the girl of the underwater world described in the book.

Some of the most wondrous sights were not even described in the book.

"It's normal to escape this world. Seele, Valkyrie Quicksilver, are you alright?"

Although he noticed that both of their vital signs and mental fluctuations were within normal limits, Gwen still asked a question.

"Yes, Brother Gwen, we're all alright."

Although she had almost despaired while in the Sea of Quantum, Seele felt a sense of warmth upon seeing this familiar scenery again.

After all, at this moment, the Sea of Quantum was no longer a dead end that trapped Seele, but her way home.

"Gwen, is this the sea?"

Looking at the magnificent and strange scenery in the Sea of Quantum, Valkyrie Quicksilver, somewhat excited, couldn't help but ask.

"This is the Sea of Quantum. Although it is called a sea, it is not a sea in the conventional sense."

"We'll go see the sea together when we get back."

Gwen, having broken free of his fusion and returned to his human form, smiled in response to the Valkyrie Quicksilver, taking out Gneisenau and adjusting it.

When Gwen was blown into this World Bubble, he completely lost his sense of direction.

Therefore, if Gwen wants to go back, he must rely on Gneisenau for guidance.

Fortunately, Changguang did not disappoint Gwen.

After some adjustments, Gneisenau pointed Gwen in the right direction.

"We've found our direction."

Gwen put away Gneisenau and smiled at Seele, whose little face was full of hope.

"We'll be home soon, Seele."

"Um..."

Seele's pretty face was filled with barely suppressed joy as she nodded vigorously.

The next moment, golden light flashed, Gwen summoned Apollo again, holding the two girls in his arms. Light wings unfurled on his back, and he sped off in the direction Gneisenau had indicated.

Even without the Cascade Light Source within his body, Gwen, who is capable of absorbing quantum energy, doesn't need to worry about running out of energy. So he simply summons Apollo and advances at full speed in his strongest form, balancing safety and speed.

However, as Gwen advanced at full speed and absorbed quantum energy, outside a certain World Bubble, the graceful figure who was preparing to dive in quietly stopped in her tracks—

"This is..."

She raised her head in surprise, gazing into the distant direction, her beautiful, wine-red eyes filled with astonishment—

In that direction, the woman sensed a familiar fluctuation—the fluctuation emanating from the traces she had left for certain people she paid close attention to.

The object of her attention seems to have borne fruit, and the woman should be happy.

However, there was no trace of her mark in that fluctuation; only the fluctuation from the energy link she left behind due to intense energy interaction was present, which was rather strange.

It's important to understand that the mark she left behind wasn't entirely her own power, but rather left by the one behind her.

And the fact that even this mark could be erased, allowing her to only happen to notice it when the other party is engaged in intense energy interaction, suggests that the person she was focusing on was probably beyond her expectations...

As she pondered, the woman closed her beautiful, wine-red eyes and began to connect with the one behind her.

Although His reactions are usually slow, perhaps because He had just sent her out, His reaction this time was unexpectedly quick, and He responded to the woman immediately.

"Hmm... which cutie is so outstanding?"

This is really something to look forward to...

A smile, full of anticipation, curved the corners of her lips as she looked at her pretty face, before disappearing from that World Bubble...

Compared to the seed that bore abundant fruit, a world that might yield nothing is utterly insignificant.

On the other side, Gwen was flying at full speed as he moved forward, but he would stop from time to time to correct his course in order to avoid veering off course.

This gave the figure traversing the Sea of Quantum a chance to catch up and get closer.

"Wow, it's really dazzling, just like the stars in my Remembrance, it's hard to look away."

Seeing the figure flying at full speed ahead, the woman exclaimed in surprise, a hint of a smile in her beautiful eyes as she watched Gwen gradually disappear into the distance, but a troubled expression appeared on her pretty face—

"But the little apple from back then has grown up to this extent now..."

Even if we bring up what happened back then, it would be difficult to gain their trust...

This is really frustrating...

Using her familiarity with the Sea of Quantum, the woman quietly lingering behind Gwen muttered to herself, her gaze sweeping over the passing World Bubble, a hint of melancholy appearing on her pretty face—

"It seems the only option left is to orchestrate an unexpected event..."

Ah, I wanted to be a good person, but in the end I ended up doing the things that only bad women do.

I wonder if Little Apple will have a big problem with this?

I need to think about how to soothe his emotions... It's really a headache..."

In what would have been a muttered murmur from an outsider—a murmur that would have sounded like someone with a mental illness—the woman quietly used her power...

Chapter 378 Eden Awakens.

"The directional guidance is more accurate, and the signal is more stable. It seems we're not so far from our Eigenworld anymore..."

Within Apollo, who was hurtling through the Sea of Quantum, Gwen, having corrected his course for the fifth time, murmured to himself, preparing to send a message to Rita to let her know he was safe.

Just as Gwen's speed slowed down slightly, a colossal wave appeared out of thin air due to the interference of an invisible force, crashing down on Gwen as he sped away.

"Watch out ahead!"

A familiar voice echoed in Gwen's mind, instantly drawing his attention to the "monster wave" crashing down upon him—

The towering waves in the Sea of Quantum are actually terrifying energy torrents capable of shattering some fragile World Bubble.

Without time to ponder the source of that familiar voice, Gwen instantly unleashed his maximum power output.

With Gwen's full power, Apollo's wings of light suddenly shone brightly, and he made a sharp turn with his tall body, trying to avoid the terrifying torrent that suddenly surged up.

However...

"Such incredible mobility..."

It's making me want to build a giant mech too..."

Watching Gwen, who had just been distracted but reacted instantly to the impending danger and began fleeing at full speed, a pleased smile spread across the woman who was secretly controlling everything.

"However, I've been watching you for so long, I won't let you get away, my dear little apple..."

The woman's slender fingers gently moved, and the terrifying torrent that had been receding behind Gwen suddenly surged up, a wave crashing against Gwen's back.

"Holy shit!"

The sudden, immense force coming from behind caused Gwen to lose control of his body—

Although Gwen hastily cast dozens of layers of barriers around himself, ensuring that Apollo, Seele, and the Valkyrie Quicksilver, who were protected in front of him, were not harmed.

But the sudden, terrifying force was like a tennis racket, slamming Gwen away from the barrier.

Gwen didn't even have time to utter a greeting before he was sent flying an unknown distance, crashing into a World Bubble just like last time.

"Done!"

Seeing Gwen smashed into a World Bubble, the woman who had secretly orchestrated everything clapped her small, white hands, retracting the force that had been pushing the waves, and then unleashing another force to calm them down—

She couldn't do this on her own, but by borrowing the power and authority of the person behind her, as well as their familiarity with the Sea of Quantum, it wouldn't be difficult to artificially create such a "traffic accident."

However, before the "wave" could disappear, the woman's figure had already vanished into the Sea of Quantum, disappearing into the World Bubble that had just been hit by a meteor—

After all, she went to so much trouble just to have a pleasant meeting with her beloved Little Apple.

At the same time, in that unfortunate World Bubble, a shooting star suddenly appeared in the sky—

It was Gwen was directly filmed in.

"Isn't it true that it's called the Sea of Quantum?"

The danger level is no less than that of the ocean in the real world...

While marveling at the unpredictable nature of the Sea of Quantum, Gwen effortlessly stabilized his rapidly falling form, causing the shooting star that had suddenly streaked across the sky to disappear—

If he hadn't been caught off guard and thrown into this World Bubble, Gwen could have used that power to escape the terrifying energy torrent.

However, compared to lamenting the "traffic accident" he had just encountered, Gwen was more concerned about the voice that had just appeared in his mind—

"Eden, you're awake?"

Although Eden had been asleep for several months, Gwen still remembered her voice very clearly.

"Yes, he just woke up not long ago."

Seeing that Gwen had the energy to focus on him, Eden spoke up again.

"Once again, you gave me a crucial hint right after I woke up, just like last time, Eden."

Upon hearing that gentle voice again, Gwen felt a huge weight lifted from his heart and smiled as he spoke.

"You're welcome. It seems the fusion that day was successful?"

Upon hearing Gwen mention his first awakening, Eden noticed the coincidence, chuckled, and smoothly shifted the topic to Gwen—

"The energy fluctuations around you now are much stronger than before."
