Mine…

“Uniqueness”?

Ciel’s vision was enveloped by silver light.

Almost the instant the silver light dissipated, Ciel’s vision went black, and she directly fainted.

The massive mental energy consumed in this simulation made it nearly impossible for Ciel to resist the overwhelming dizziness after returning to reality.

Even while unconscious, Ciel didn’t experience any substantial feeling of rest.

It was just like lying on the bed with her eyes closed. Ciel could still clearly hear the noisy sounds outside the window, still feel the dizziness… only her body seemed pressed onto the bed, unable to move.

Unsure how long passed, Ciel’s index finger finally twitched slightly, feeling a slight recovery of control over her body.

Ciel propped herself up with her elbows, trying to sit up slowly, but her body was limp, unable to exert any strength.

Using all her strength, she only managed to turn over on the bed, from lying on her back to lying on her stomach.

Ciel stopped struggling. She just lay prone, feeling intense hunger, and a faint sense of lingering fear in her heart.

Her current severe aftereffects were all “thanks” to the gambling nature of “Gambler.”

If not for “Gambler” gambling like that, Ciel wouldn’t have this feeling of impending death.

But without “Gambler,” Ciel also couldn’t have obtained so much information exceeding her expectations in this simulation.

Extremely high risk, extremely high reward… Now, Ciel felt “Gambler” was far more dangerous than “Instigator.”

Under the influence of the “Instigator” potion, at most, she would push things in a fun direction, but she would absolutely not do things seeking death.

But under the influence of the “Gambler” potion, she might really go all-in with her life.

Use “Gambler” less…

Ciel sighed lightly and summoned the system.

A silver-white light screen appeared before Ciel’s eyes.

【Reality】

【Holy Year 741, June 24th, 19:00】

【Evaluation: You are? ?? Someone unforgettable, someone important… You are? What is your name? Why can’t I remember】

【Hahaha, I have to admire your courage. Daring to sacrifice anything, daring to summon anything… You might not have such good luck next time】

【However… this isn’t entirely without gain, is it?】

【Take it, this is deserved based on your performance.】

【Reward: Fate Points ×37, 【Charm Lv.3】, 【Calm Mind Lv.3】】 Thanks for reading on ManaNovel!

【Fate Points: 187】

【【Charm Lv.3】: Your charm has moderately increased. Intelligent transcendent beings and Other Side creatures will have significantly reduced aggression towards you upon encounter. You gain their favorability faster】

【【Calm Mind Lv.3】: You can maintain calm mind in any situation except death. Mental recovery speed slightly increases】

Charm Lv.3…

Ciel felt a slight headache.

Could she ask the system to stop increasing charm anymore?

If charm continued to increase, maintaining a low profile would become almost impossible.

All transcendent beings or Other Side creatures could recognize you at a glance in a crowd? How is this different from a high-visibility marker?

It’s practically like sticking a note on her face saying “I’m special, come find trouble with me.”

The improvement in calm mind wasn’t that surprising to Ciel.

After all, in the simulation, she recklessly abused 【Death Reversal】 to torture her spirit, then performed 【Spiritual Summoning】 while mentally weak, and sacrificed something even the system found outrageous.

Ciel closed the prompt before her, chose to continue lying prone on the bed, quietly meditating, waiting for her spirit to slowly recover.

The passive mental recovery brought by Lv.3 Calm Mind was indeed minimal for Ciel at this moment, but having something was better than nothing.

At this time… Avena should have met with Lucy, Oppold, and Professor Ashford from the Redemption Society, and confirmed the information for tomorrow’s banquet, right…

The following time wasn’t entirely safe for Ciel.

Lucy and Oppold definitely wouldn’t realize they were targeted initially. Oppold wouldn’t go to Clock Tower Alley, and Lucy naturally wouldn’t obediently stay at Deton Manor.

Ciel currently had two plans.

Either eliminate the quill pen before the banquet to remove future troubles.

Or properly recover her spirit, deal with the unknown timing of misfortune, while slowly simulating again to find another opportunity.

But Ciel didn’t want to use either plan.

No, it cannot be said that I don’t want to, but rather the first plan simply cannot be used.

In these two simulations, the prerequisite for dealing with the quill pen was first subduing Tara through the Divine Servant, then having Tara lead people to kill Lucy and Oppold, thereby luring out the quill pen behind them.

Let alone Tara probably hadn’t arrived in Berren City yet, even if she arrived, Ciel contacting her would force her into deep ties with the Divine Advent Church—unless she sacrificed Tara and her confidants all at once, eliminating all loose ends.

But even dealing with Tara wouldn’t help.

Killing Lucy and Oppold was basically equivalent to a direct confrontation with Deton Manor and the upper nobility. Ciel wasn’t 100% confident she wouldn’t be found out.

As for the second plan of slowly dragging things out and simulating, it was also difficult to implement.

The longer it dragged on, the more variables arose.

Her current advantage was all based on intelligence obtained from simulations.

And intelligence has a time limit. Outdated intelligence is worthless. She had to resolve everything within the time limit when only she possessed the intelligence.

There must be a better way, one she hadn’t thought of yet…

Ciel felt slightly short of breath.

Coincidentally, her spirit and strength had recovered slightly. She used her hands to push against the mattress, turned herself over, and continued lying face up towards the ceiling.

Just turning over made Ciel feel slightly exhausted again.

Even if I died in this room, probably wouldn’t be discovered until the landlord came to collect rent next month… Ciel couldn’t help thinking this.

But just for an instant, she pushed these negative emotions aside.

There was no time for sighing now.

Although progress was made in each simulation, her real self hadn’t taken any action yet besides staying away from the transcendent.

Danger still lurked around her.

That quill pen sealed artifact, and the thing swallowed inside the quill pen…

-

Ciel opened the system panel again. This time, she directly clicked the system store interface.

Although she fainted in the last simulation, before fainting, she held those few sealed artifacts tightly in her arms.

The unconscious period might exceed ten hours, but if Tara was slightly perceptive, she probably wouldn’t take away the things in her arms.

The system interface unfolded before Ciel. After seeing the items stored inside, Ciel slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

【【Shifting Remnant Coin (Unawakened)】】

【Fate Points: 500】

【【Eye of Peering Death Omen (Unawakened)】】

【Fate Points: 540】

【【Contaminated Fate Renegade’s Touch】】

【Fate Points: ???】

Ciel frowned slightly upon seeing these sealed artifacts.

Regarding sealed artifacts, Ciel knew that the names passed down by word of mouth didn’t correspond to the system names.

The top two sealed artifacts, though expensive, were in an unawakened state.

The original name of “Strong Luck Coin” was “Shifting Remnant Coin.” From the name, it could be seen this was an incomplete sealed artifact. No idea what its complete form was.

As for “Eye of Peering Death Omen,” Ciel had a slight impression.

She had seen a sealed artifact with a similar name, and not long ago.

Ciel selected “Sealed Artifact” as the filter category in the system store. Soon, Ciel saw the familiar sealed artifact.

“Death Omen’s Gaze.”

This was the sealed artifact of the previous “Plague Doctor” Sherlon, obtained from the Divine Advent Church.

Both looked very much like eyes… Could sealed artifacts have series?

What would happen if this series was gathered together?

Ciel kept this question in mind. For now, she couldn’t answer this puzzle… because her Fate Points were simply insufficient to buy these sealed artifacts.

Finally, Ciel focused her gaze on the last sealed artifact.

【【Contaminated Fate Renegade’s Touch】】

【Fate Points: ???】

This was the first time Ciel saw a sealed artifact priced with three question marks in the store interface.

Being placed in the mall indicated the intelligent spirit inside had been erased by her, now a non-sentient sealed artifact.

Although its effect was extremely powerful, even capable of rewriting the fate of third-tier transcendents to some extent, granting them great benefits and great misfortune.

But from the quill pen’s own description, its own ability didn’t seem that powerful…

Ciel clicked on “Contaminated Renegade’s Touch,” wanting to see its ability.

A new item details panel appeared before Ciel.

【【Contaminated Renegade’s Touch】: Special Sealed Artifact. Holder can see the fate lines of those undergoing major fate changes. By consuming transcendent characteristics, set rules, rewrite fate lines. Those who obey the rules gain benefits, those who defy the rules encounter misfortune. When misfortune accumulates to a certain level, three rounds of calamities will be triggered, intensity depends on the characteristics absorbed by the sealed artifact】

【Side Effect: Can only be charged using the holder’s own transcendent characteristics. Holder must continuously replenish transcendent characteristics to avoid being completely devoured】

【Contamination: This item has been contaminated by an unknown Uniqueness, significantly enhancing the sealed artifact’s functions】

【Uniqueness: Special items with Uniqueness cannot be exchanged】

So it’s a sealed artifact that can only be used by absorbing transcendent characteristics… and only the user’s transcendent characteristics.

Meaning, a third-tier transcendent could be directly drained into an ordinary person? Or driven mad?

To continuously replenish, one must constantly ingest potions or transcendent characteristics of the same path… equivalent to constantly accumulating potion side effects in the body.

The stronger the user, the stronger the quill pen.

But if the user relies too heavily on the quill pen, they will eventually succumb to madness.

Characteristics will be absorbed, but whispers and contamination won’t disappear.

Ciel had never heard of anyone being able to drink multiple bottles of potion—perhaps she had simply encountered too few transcendents—most people already exhausted their efforts just digesting one bottle.

But Ciel could confirm that normal transcendents would absolutely not drink a second bottle of potion of their own tier.

Just look at Avena.

If drinking a second bottle really brought benefits, Avena would have long drunk potions like sugar water, not being unable to digest the “Psychologist” potion.

The system’s description revealed abilities the mad quill pen didn’t mention, and also revealed things the mad quill pen concealed, or rather, couldn’t recall at all.

Contamination, and Uniqueness.

This was the first time Ciel heard these two concepts.

The system could even replicate various sealed artifacts identically for sale, but things with “Uniqueness,” even the system couldn’t replicate, showing the scarcity of such things.

Very worthy of the name “Uniqueness.”

After reading this description, Ciel gradually understood.

Her previous speculation was indeed correct.

The spirit of that sealed artifact had gone mad.

The thing contaminating it was precisely “Uniqueness.”

As for what that “Uniqueness” was, Ciel could roughly guess.

It was the scene seen in the orange light sphere when using 【Spiritual Summoning】 before.

The woman in the ruins and sea of fire, to escape the pursuit of that “Mosaic” person, had the quill pen carry the thing with “Uniqueness” and escape into a place resembling a portal.

But the raven form of the sealed artifact, after escaping, couldn’t resist the temptation of “Uniqueness,” directly swallowing it, completely losing its mind.

So, when it possessed her, the large amount of knowledge and language poured in, most of it didn’t come from the raven itself?

But carried by that “Uniqueness” characteristic?

Thinking this way, it makes sense…

Although Ciel didn’t understand what Uniqueness specifically referred to, just hearing the term, it wasn’t hard to associate it with deities.

In most people’s, including Ciel’s, stereotype, deities’ abilities or authorities were unique.

“Uniqueness” characteristic, most likely related to divine authority.

Ciel recalled the words the raven spoke crazily through her mouth when occupying her body.

“(Old Ansu) This is my power! This is my authority!”

“(Old Ansu) You are just a damned vessel!!!”

“(Old Ansu) How dare you!!!”

“(Old Ansu) I am a god!”

-

Thinking this way, its words back then were spoken after being contaminated by the memories carried by “Uniqueness.”

It could no longer distinguish whether those were its own memories or memories instilled by “Uniqueness.”

Such a dangerous thing…

Could it be…

Ciel suddenly thought of the inexplicable sense of closeness she felt towards that quill pen before.

Could it be that the source of this closeness came from that “Uniqueness,” not the quill pen itself?

After all, Ciel felt absolutely no closeness towards the quill pen’s spirit, towards that raven.

The ability of “Uniqueness” was also reflected in the contamination, right? It greatly enhanced the inherent ability of “Fate Renegade’s Touch,” allowing it to achieve things previously impossible.

Like those lightning strikes.

Like that fire tornado.

Like that meteorite.

Lightning and fire tornadoes, Ciel felt these could be achieved by transcendents above the third tier, not yet beyond Ciel’s understanding of the transcendent, and even the third-tier Oppold could withstand them.

If not tricked by Ciel, Lucy and Oppold could have survived until the final meteorite.

Was the enhancement brought by “Uniqueness” that meteorite?

This ability indeed exceeded Ciel’s understanding of transcendents.

If she could feel closeness, it meant “Uniqueness” had some connection with her. She should be able to explain the meteorite’s arrival… if she used her imagination.

What abilities did she have again?

The abilities given by the system were almost all related to time and fate changed by time.

Whether it was simulation or her exclusive sealed artifact, they were inseparable from the concept of “time.”

The result caused by “time” was the transformation of “fate.”

If assuming that “Uniqueness” was herself.

The simplest explanation would be… that meteorite didn’t exist in that time period originally.

It might come from tens of millions of years ago, or tens of millions of years later, landing at the correct location at the wrong time…

This hypothesis made Ciel’s arms break out in goosebumps.

“System, is that your ‘Uniqueness’?” Ciel asked directly in her mind.

Previously, whenever Ciel asked about the quill pen sealed artifact, the system remained tight-lipped, refusing to tell Ciel.

Now, even if the system didn’t say, Ciel basically traced the source of that “Uniqueness” back to the system.

Ciel’s mind recalled the words spoken by the quill pen when it first occupied her body, translated previously.

“(Old Ansu) So you were just part of me… No wonder you could sense my arrival in advance.”

“(Old Ansu) I am a deity who has survived countless eras, mastering authority… And you are just a vessel carrying my fragment…”

So the truth was, it wasn’t that she was part of it.

But the “Uniqueness” contaminating it, was part of the system.

Ciel, at the end of the first possession, returned to the system space and didn’t hear the two sentences the raven spoke after she left.

“(Old Ansu) Impossible… This is impossible!!!”

“(Old Ansu) You are fake! I am the real one!!!”

If she heard these two sentences, the system couldn’t deny this fact no matter what.

Moreover, after experiencing the previous dream, Ciel roughly knew where the “Nature” ability came from.

The term “Nature ability” wasn’t commonly used in the Holy Era, and rarely recorded in the Ancient Era. The only possibility was the Chaotic Era—and the Chaotic Era was likely the Old Days.

After the raven occupied her body, it said her “Coroner” ability was “Nature” ability. And in the dream, the ability very similar to “Coroner,” which stitched the raven and quill pen together, was “Nature” ability.

That’s why the raven was so familiar with it.

Ciel knew her inner thoughts would be detected by the system. The system must know what she was thinking at this moment.

But the system gave Ciel no answer.

After a long silence, just as Ciel was about to fall asleep, finally, a system panel popped up before Ciel.

【Who knows?】

【Is it yours? Or mine?】

【Regardless, I’ll give you a piece of advice】

【Take it back, it’s good for you】

【^_^】

The tone was as annoying as ever, but the system’s words basically confirmed Ciel’s speculation.

Anyway, whether this “Uniqueness” was a fragment of the system or something else, Ciel had to collect it.

Letting such a powerful thing continue to be used by a half-mad sealed artifact was truly unsettling.

Who knows when, in a fit of madness, a meteorite would fall.

Ciel had to get her hands on that thing, even if it meant completely dismantling “Fate Renegade’s Touch.”

Ciel still had the advantage now.

Ciel had almost completely figured out “Fate Renegade’s Touch,” but it couldn’t find Ciel at all—it just treated Ciel as one of the people whose fate changed.

It was just a counterfeit, a sealed artifact contaminated by wrong memories, a mad entity unable to recognize itself, unable even to feel the same closeness as Ciel.

It survived from the Old Days until now, who knows how many people with major fate changes it had harmed… Being able to avoid containment for so long, its own power was crucial, but the influence of “Uniqueness” definitely played a decisive factor.

How could she lure it out without killing Lucy and Oppold?

Before reaching the point of no return, Ciel really didn’t want to use Tara’s power.

But if pushed to the point of no retreat, Ciel would still utilize the power behind Tara to kill Lucy and Oppold without hesitation.

Surviving first was necessary before considering offending which organization later.

Ciel propped herself up with her arms and slowly sat up from the bed.

The more this happened, the more Ciel felt her body and spirit were too weak.

Is this the limit of an ordinary human?

But becoming a transcendent, even if the body becomes stronger, the spirit wouldn’t be strengthened much, and would face the danger of backlash from the potion.

Her pure self, uncontaminated by potions, actually had more enduring spirit.

This was also part of the trade-off.

Knock knock knock—

At this moment, knocking sounded from downstairs.

Who? At this time?

-

Besides Avena and the landlord, no one else should know she was here.

This was knocking she hadn’t encountered even in simulations.

If the visitor meant harm, with Ciel’s current residual mental energy, even transforming into “Judicator” Ciel, she wouldn’t be able to exert half her strength.

Bullying a first-tier transcendent might work. If a second-tier came, Ciel would be the one falling.

Ciel moved back onto the bed, wanting to observe the doorway through the window using the streetlight’s illumination.

Ciel carefully pulled the window open a crack, looking down from the windowsill.

That’s…

Maids?

Two maids pushed a food cart, stopped at Ciel’s door. Three carriages parked around them, slightly blocking others’ view.

After finding no one opened the door, the maids left the food cart at the door. The adjacent carriages also slowly drove away, as if nothing had happened.

And the two women wearing plain maid uniforms also returned to the house opposite Ciel’s.

Those were Avena’s maids.

Ciel closed the curtains, lay on the bed, and took a breath.

It seems she hadn’t gone out for too long, triggering a “special event.”

Previously, after entering simulations, she would basically go out and move around. This time, due to the simulation plus fainting for too long without getting up, it led to the maids delivering food.

This was likely Avena’s instruction.

The pale-faced Ciel supported herself against the wall, walked down to the living room, opened the door, pulled the food cart directly inside, then closed the wooden door.

The plates on the food cart were all covered with ordinary wooden lids, keeping the appearance as low-key as possible.

And at the bottom of one of the trays, a piece of paper was pressed underneath.

Ciel took out the paper and glanced at it. This was left by the maids.

【Miss Ciel:】

【These meals were ordered by the Young Mistress. She said you often stay cooped up in your room and rarely eat, asking us to deliver meals if we see you haven’t come out for a day. If you don’t need this service, you can push the food cart back to the door and write “not needed” on the note】

【Maid】

Indeed, Avena’s instruction.

Ciel didn’t move the items to the dining table, avoiding spills.

She just pushed the food cart next to the sofa, sat on the sofa, and ate directly from the cart.

After finishing the food, Ciel finally felt her body recover slightly.

This feeling of fullness also made Ciel’s spirit feel better.

She took out the dip pen she carried, wrote “not needed” on the note, pressed it back under the tray, then pushed the cart to the door and closed the door again.

After a short while, she heard the sound of wheels turning. The food cart had been pushed away.

Ciel might take some major actions later. If ordinary people got involved, Ciel couldn’t necessarily guarantee their safety. Most importantly, let them stay away from her.

Watching from afar, helping relay messages to Avena was fine, but such close contact was best avoided.

Ciel slowly walked back to her room, took a set of clean, simple clothes from the wardrobe. This was the dress Ciel wore before.

Taking the clothes to the bathroom, the bathroom in this rented house was more cramped, but separated from the washroom, considered standard for the Gem District.

Much better than Clock Tower Alley. Most houses in Clock Tower Alley didn’t even have washrooms, only able to use outdoor public washrooms and public bathrooms.

Due to not boiling water beforehand, Ciel could only use cold tap water to simply clean her hair and body, washing up.

By the time she finished drying her hair and came out of the bathroom, the coldness in her body gradually faded, and Ciel felt warm again.

Feeling the soothing sensation in her body, Ciel lightly tapped the desk before her with the pen in her hand, opened an Old Ansu dictionary, memorized words while continuing her previous thoughts.

How to lure out “Fate Renegade’s Touch” without killing Lucy and Oppold, without offending the organizations behind them.

At this moment, it must be hovering in mid-air, observing its targets.

Without high spiritual perception, one couldn’t see its raven shadow form.

But it could see me.

Must start from the point “it can see me.”

During the second simulation, she mailed letters to Lucy and Oppold. The contents of the letters were detected by “Fate Renegade’s Touch.”

Last simulation, the third one, her simulated self left a large amount of information in Chinese. “Fate Renegade’s Touch” didn’t notice anything.

For incomprehensible Chinese, even if it couldn’t understand, it wouldn’t interfere, allowing Ciel to communicate with herself in code.

Now, she herself mastered a certain amount of Old Ansu vocabulary. Memorizing more words could support Ciel in directly writing what she wanted.

The raven phantom could understand these Old Ansu words. She could start with text.

What could force it out, or lure it out?

Could start from its memories?

Ciel began recalling the dream in the purple mist space.

At least from the dreams she contacted, from the blue light sphere to the orange light sphere, spanning decades or hundreds of years, the sealed artifact “Fate Renegade’s Touch” was in the hands of its creator, that young woman.

Previously, the raven shadow also mentioned the word “Nature.” Clearly, it still retained memories of that period.

Ciel picked up the pen, dipped it in ink, and began drawing several geometric objects on the blank paper before her.

Ciel couldn’t draw. She just used these abstract geometric shapes to aid her memory, like where the eyes were, roughly where the nose was, roughly where the mouth was.

Just like that, an abstract human face gradually formed before Ciel’s eyes.

The face in Ciel’s mind gradually overlapped with the abstract geometric shapes before her, deepening the impression considerably.

Possible…

And the clothes…

Similarly, using geometric shapes, Ciel sketched the rough style of that long robe—it was red with gold trim, very luxurious, a noble robe with a strong sense of aggression.

Ciel couldn’t remember every detail, but she knew the approximate color scheme of areas, and the specific styles of several larger, more iconic emblems.

After expressing these things with triangles, squares, and circles, she stood up slightly, took a few steps back, and looked at her work.

Possible… at least 90% similar.

Ciel’s plan was very simple.

-

That is, have her simulated self directly find the best tailor, create this set of clothes, regardless of cost.

Then… she herself logs in directly with the “Coroner” save file, uses within ten corpses, completely stitches together the woman from memory, and has her wear this set of clothes…

Yes.

In this era, she would stitch together the creator of “Fate Renegade’s Touch” from who knows how many eras ago.

The stitched creation would carry her own aura and power, the power of “Nature” mentioned by the raven shadow.

It should resemble the appearance of the creator in the raven’s memory by at least 80%.

Given the raven’s blurred memory and mental instability, this object, once created, might achieve 100% overlap in its eyes.

Not just this.

Ciel quickly began marking on the paper using Pinyin, writing several paragraphs.

Those were all words she heard in the dream.

Although she didn’t understand the meaning of these languages, Ciel’s 【Linguistics Lv.3】 talent of language photographic memory allowed her to perfectly remember the standard pronunciation of these words—even if she had never heard or learned them before.

Especially the shout from the orange dream, the creator’s cry before death, letting “Fate Renegade’s Touch” escape, was specifically marked by Ciel.

This appearance, these clothes, plus that shout…

Could it attract the mentally unstable sealed artifact down?

Or, would it directly stimulate its spirit to collapse?

Ciel didn’t know.

Fortunately, all this could be verified in the simulation.

The plan for the next simulation had already surfaced in Ciel’s mind.

Although somewhat of a gamble, Ciel felt this idea was worth trying for 10 Fate Points.

She wouldn’t consider this cruel to the mentally unstable sealed artifact. If she had to consider its feelings, who would consider Ciel’s safety?

The transcendent world itself was extremely cruel. It’s either you die or I die, allowing no room for saintly emotions.

Ciel’s eyes gradually sharpened. Silver light flashed before her. The “Endless Manual of Instant Forgetfulness” appeared on the desk before her.

She flipped open a page, directly began writing on it in Chinese.

【Have Avena introduce a good tailor. Sell the “Coroner” potion. Create this set of clothes regardless of cost. Design sketch is in the notebook】

【Remaining time, you need to find the source of corpses, preferably adult females matching the height, around 1.7 meters】

【Need to create two forms: one old age with short white hair, retaining some gold hair; the other young form with long golden hair. Pupils are the common blue for Ansu people】

【Corpse source preferably untraceable. Everything based on feasibility in reality】

【Remember, in the simulation, do not use the “Coroner” ability for stitching for now. Let me handle the actual operation】

Writing here, Ciel paused her pen.

Silver light flashed. The manual returned to the system inventory.

Her simulated self’s task ended here. This wasn’t difficult work, but achieving perfection indeed required considerable effort.

And Ciel had more important things to consider and prepare.

That is, if “Fate Renegade’s Touch” was lured out, how should she capture it.

How to control it? After controlling it, how to extract the “Uniqueness”?

These two questions seemed simple, but these were the crucial steps.

If these two steps weren’t done well, all previous efforts would be wasted.

Just the first thought, Ciel felt the capture task could be handed over to Little Left.

Although “Fate Renegade’s Touch’s” speed was extremely fast, so fast she couldn’t react, if Little Left was summoned beforehand, Ciel didn’t think Little Left couldn’t outrun it.

This was a contest of speed. Ciel placed her bet on Little Left.

As for transcendent fingers… this was easily solved. Just need to use transformation, cut off her own fingers from the save file. Anyway, injuries wouldn’t be saved.

Just consuming 5 Fate Points.

As for after controlling it, how to extract the “Uniqueness”?

This point made Ciel fall into deep thought.

First, she didn’t know if sealed artifacts could be destroyed, didn’t know what would happen after a sealed artifact was destroyed, and didn’t know how to handle the “Uniqueness” after it was extracted.

Handling the “Uniqueness” issue was also quite crucial.

Even her own fate changes could be detected by “Fate Renegade’s Touch.” Ciel didn’t believe that something sounding so powerful like “Uniqueness” appearing in the world wouldn’t be detected by some individual or organization.

Just as Ciel was thinking of a method, the system, which had been silent, almost never interrupting Ciel’s thoughts, now lit up its screen before Ciel.

【Friendly reminder, best not to extract “Uniqueness” anywhere except the Other Side. Otherwise, your location will be instantly detected by Ascenders worldwide… or as you call them, Transcendents】

【If really discovered, simulation can’t save you either】

Even without the system’s reminder, Ciel knew she shouldn’t publicly extract “Uniqueness.”

However, the system prompted her to handle this matter in the “Other Side”?

Ciel frowned slightly.

Even if she had spirit creatures help, had them destroy “Fate Renegade’s Touch” in the Other Side for her, eventually they still had to bring the “Uniqueness” to reality for Ciel to obtain it.

If thrown into the Other Side to destroy, if the blood thread vortex closed before the “Uniqueness” characteristic was taken out, then wanting to see that “Uniqueness” again next time would basically be like finding a needle in a haystack.

This thing, even placed in the Other Side, would definitely be highly coveted.

Unless…

She herself also entered the Other Side simultaneously…

The moment this thought emerged in Ciel’s mind, she reached out her left hand and pinched the bridge of her nose.

She still remembered what happened when she was affected by the Other Side before.

Staying inside too long, she would really go mad…

But this was already the best plan… unless she could control the timing of entering the Other Side herself.

Even entering the Other Side in the simulation, her real self would be affected… too risky.

To implement this plan, Ciel needed at least Avena, as a “Listener,” to be present, so that when she came out of the Other Side, at least someone could save her.

However, the influence of the Other Side was too strong. Avena, currently only first-tier, probably couldn’t help her much.

Second-tier “Psychologist”…

Helping Avena advance seemed imminent.
