Ch. 433Puppet?
An Kai deduced that the [God of Magic]'s doppelganger had killed Abyssal Beings to harvest [time spell element traces] and search for the [Divine Court Academy] core, so he set out to capture him. As An Kai searched and rescued missing beings, the [God of Darkness]'s Doppelganger began to feel that someone else was controlling him.
- Wayne and the others concluded that a powerful god or doppelganger had turned the Abyssal Beings into statues, and An Kai suspected the [God of Magic].
- An Kai reasoned that the [God of Magic] had extracted [time spell element traces] from the Abyssal Beings to find the [Divine Court Academy] core, and he changed his priority to capturing the doppelganger.
- The [God of Magic]'s doppelganger left false trails, many of which led to the [God of Darkness]'s doppelganger, whom he planned to use as a fallback and eventually eliminate.
- An Kai followed traces of the [God of Magic], killed a subordinate of the [God of Darkness]'s Doppelganger, and rescued several missing beings, including Sally Bukelin.
- Sally Bukelin told An Kai that she had sensed her state before being summoned, prompting him to wonder whether the World of the Dead was a vast False-Time World.
- The [God of Darkness]'s Doppelganger felt that he had become a puppet controlled by someone else.
