At the very least, tears had blurred his vision, and the pain was so intense that he couldn't open his eyes at all.

Knock knock knock!

Just then, a series of urgent knocks sounded on the door.

"Mahiro, what's wrong? I think I just heard you scream?!"

Seryu Ubiquitous's concerned voice came from outside the door.

"I'm fine..."

He wanted to say that, but he couldn't open his mouth and could only let the office door be pushed open.

As soon as she entered, Seryu Ubiquitous saw Mahiro curled up in a chair, Mahiro around with his eyes covered.

"Mahiro?! What's wrong?!"

Seryu Ubiquitous quickly stepped forward, grabbed his arm, and asked.

Unfortunately, his clenched teeth couldn't be opened even a little bit.

Seryu Ubiquitous, blinded by concern, shook him repeatedly and forcefully like a fool.

You should at least bring Dr. Fashion here!!!

Mahiro wants to make that comment, provided he has the ability to do so.

However, perhaps Seryu Ubiquitous's shaking had an effect, because the pain started to subside little by little.

He gradually stopped struggling and slumped back in the chair.

"Mahiro!!!"

"Okay, okay, stop yelling, I'm not dead... I'm still alive."

Leaning back in her chair with her eyes closed, Mahiro muttered under her breath.

However, a strange thing happened: even though he hadn't opened his eyes, he could clearly see Seryu Ubiquitous's appearance at that moment—

She looked like she was about to cry, and after learning that he was alright, she covered her mouth, trying her best not to cry out loud.

"Oh dear, why are you crying like that? Stop crying, or you won't look pretty anymore."

Mahiro reached out and gently stroked Seryu Ubiquitous's head.

Seryu Ubiquitous, however, was so angry that she laughed.

"Honestly, you scared me to death! I thought something had happened to you, Lord Mahiro..."

"What could possibly happen to me? I just tried injecting the medicine that Dr. Fashion helped me improve, but I didn't expect it to be so torturous..."

"It's that perverted Dr. Fashion again! You wait, Mahiro, I'm going to get her here to avenge you!"

Before he could finish speaking, Seryu Ubiquitous stood up and stormed out.

Fortunately, he stopped the impulsive girl in time.

"Alright, alright, I'm fine. The idea to improve the reagent was mine, and the experimental reagent was also my own. It has nothing to do with that guy. Don't go and smash up his lab again."

Perhaps it's because of him.

Seryu Ubiquitous and Dr. Fashion did not have the same good relationship or respect as depicted in the original work.

It was like they were enemies.

In particular, the investigation revealed that Dr. Fashion had many blemishes and had done many shady things...

However, Seryu Ubiquitous was very obedient to him. When he told her not to go, she indeed didn't go and stayed in the office instead.

But when she turned her head and Mahiro's gaze, she was taken aback.

"Sir... Mahiro, your eyes...!"

"Um?"

Seryu Ubiquitous covered his mouth in terror, too frightened to speak.

What's wrong with my eyes?

"You... you... see for yourself..."

Seryu Ubiquitous took a small mirror out of her pocket and handed it to him.

Mahiro it up and took a look, he was shocked.

"What is this thing?!"

In the mirror, his eyes were shining, the light as ominous as blood, and most importantly, there was a pentagram magic circle within that light!

What the heck?! Is this Rewriting Eye?!

It's not exactly the same as the one in the Legend of the Brave, but it's practically identical!

Although his eyes are called "Alpha Stigma," he always thought they were a permanent type of magic, like Shiba Tatsuya's "Regrowth," which couldn't be turned off.

Moreover, it is fundamentally different from the Rewriting Eye, in that it can also combine the "Eidos Eye" to analyze matter.

It's not just magic that can be copied.

But now he can't be so sure.

The eyes were flashing exactly like those of Rewriting Eye; if that were really it... wouldn't it be incredibly useless?

Because the Rewriting Eye itself isn't strong; what's powerful is the solver of the universal formula, but he clearly doesn't possess that, otherwise he wouldn't be unable to fully analyze even the alchemy of the Relic System.

Moreover, what he can do is not just simple replication, but a kind of understanding.

That kind of understanding—the ability to adapt it to one's own use and reweave it.

But now, he really wasn't sure...

However, the light came and went quickly, and gradually the light in his eyes dimmed, but it seemed that the strange pentagram magic circle was left on the surface of his iris, as if it were engraved on it.

"Mahiro, are you really alright? Should I go and call Dr. Fashion over to take a look at you...?"

Seryu Ubiquitous was very worried because everything that had just happened seemed too bizarre, not to mention that Yotsuba Mahiro's eyes still had marks that looked like scars.

"... I'm fine, no need, I just need to rest."

Mahiro waved his hand and gently closed his eyes again.

It's a little sour and a bit tiring.

Although his response was somewhat formulaic, he certainly didn't have any problems.

Thinking back on it now, it seems most likely that Tyrant stimulated his recessive genes, which is why this thing came out.

But is it just a coincidence or something else?

I'm not quite sure.

Moreover, he can't be sure whether it's Rewriting Eye or not.

Only by going to the Little Garden and letting the all-knowing Laplace Demon see it, or by estimating through the Gift Card, can one gain the correct understanding.

After all, that's how it's usually written in online novels.

"Alright, Seryu Ubiquitous, could you handle my business for today? I'm a little tired, so I'll head back now."

"Okay... but are you really sure you're alright, Master Mahiro?"

"No problem, don't worry, I..."

Clang!

Before he could even finish speaking, Mahiro, who was walking with his eyes closed, bumped headfirst into the wall.

Although they can see people, walking still seems a bit difficult, as if they've lost their balance and are slightly unsteady on their feet.

But...

"It's alright, it's nothing serious, you'll get used to it."

After saying that, he left the office.

Looking at the empty doorway, Seryu Ubiquitous couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Is Mahiro Shinji really alright...?"

Seryu Ubiquitous's concerns were justified, Mahiro and brought home.

Whether it was Mine, Remus, or Mekime, they all looked at him with strange expressions.

"Hey, Mine. Why is Master walking with his eyes closed? Is this some kind of performance art? Like those people dancing wildly in the street," Mekime asked curiously.

"Why don't you just go and ask the master?"

"Ask the master?! I dare not."

"If you don't dare ask the master, then why did you ask me?! Get back to work! Or you won't get dinner tonight!"

Seeing Mine get angry, Mekime and Remus didn't dare to stay where they were. Even the three little creatures that were secretly watching were startled and quickly turned around and ran to work.

"Hey Master, why are you walking with your eyes closed?"

Seeing that no one was around, Mine took the initiative to step forward and ask.

"Oh, it's Mine. It's nothing, just that my eyes are a little tired from overuse. I'll be fine after a rest."

"Are your eyes... overworked?"

Mine slowly typed out a few question marks.

The terminology was too niche for her to understand, but she knew her owner's personality quite well.

In terms of office work, I mainly slack off and never bother to seriously handle official business, so there's no issue with straining my eyes.

However, since her master said so, she, as a maid, naturally wouldn't pry into the matter.

As a qualified maid, what she should do now is to step forward and help her master back to his room to rest.

"Oh, by the way, Master, I heard on the street today that you made a bet with General Esdeath? Are you planning a large-scale martial arts competition? Do you need my help?"

Despite Mine petite and slender frame, Mine is quite skilled; she would easily rank in the upper-middle tier of the Elite Group.

If we're only talking about dissection and shooting skills, then he's undoubtedly No. 1!

"No need, it's just a minor skirmish."

"Only you, Master, could describe a duel with the strongest general Esdeath, as a mere trifle," Mine sighed softly.

But that's just like her owner's style.

"Oh, by the way, Mine, how did you know about my upcoming competition? Has the rumor spread this far already?"

"..."

Mine looked at him with a hint of speechlessness and sighed softly.

"Master, this isn't just a rumor; the entire Imperial Capital probably knows about it now."

Hiss--

Is it really that outrageous?!

In fact, it really is that outrageous.

At the very least, the news that he and Esdeath were going to have a team competition had already spread throughout the military and even the upper echelons of the Imperial Capital.

Two days later, when he arrived at the arena with his men, the stands were already filled with military personnel, as well as many nobles who had come to watch the show!

But what surprised Mahiro the most was that General Budo, who was wearing black armor and had yellow hair on his head that looked like Pikachu, also came!

This man actually left the palace on his own!

That's truly rare.

He only understood when he saw the girl standing next to Budo.

Oh, so the little emperor is here too.

"Ahem, I just happened to learn of this news, so I intend to act as the referee for this competition. Do you both have any objections?"

Is there a problem with this?

Both Esdeath and Yotsuba Mahiro said there was no problem.
