Failing to break Caelan’s record was sothing Evelyn found rather regrettable.
However, Evelyn could now accept it calmly.
Because just now, she had already displayed the full extent of her strength. One could even say she had perford beyond her usual limits.
Yet even so, 49 million points was already her limit.
Although it seed like she was only 4 million points short, Evelyn knew very clearly in her heart that those 4 million points were like a massive chasm.
The current her had absolutely no chance of crossing it.
"As expected of Caelan! And this was him from so ti ago. Was his strength already this terrifying back then?"
"If I’d known things would turn out like this, I should have asked him to temporarily give the number one spot on the all-ti ranking."
The reason Evelyn said this was because the awakener who obtained first place on the all-ti ranking would receive an additional reward, one that could instantly restore their entire condition.
But from the looks of things now, this wish was probably impossible to realize.
Forget it. Forget it. It seed she simply did not have that kind of luck.
Evelyn shook her head helplessly. Then she prepared to leave the [Void Frontier].
In truth, as of today, all of her [Star Ascension Quests] had basically been completed.
So she hoped to use so of the special chanisms of the Mirror Image to find a way to clear the final hurdle more easily.
Under Supre Staff’s recomndation, Evelyn had thought of a thod.
That was to directly use quest rewards to transform herself into a Deathborn.
According to the principles of the Mirror Image, if Evelyn beca a Deathborn, then her Mirror Image would also retain the strength of a Deathborn.
At that point, perhaps Evelyn would be able to defeat the Mirror Image with ease.
Just as Evelyn was using her points to exchange for several transformation cards, she suddenly received a communication from Caelan.
Caelan was actually contacting her on his own initiative?
A trace of pleasant surprise flashed through Evelyn’s eyes.
But at that mont, Supre Staff, who was beside her, suddenly spoke in a light and airy tone.
"Evelyn, please remain rational. This brat is clearly here to ask us for information. He did not co specifically to find you."
Evelyn froze slightly, then subconsciously asked,
"Lord Caelan, is there sothing you need from ?"
On the other side, Caelan imdiately replied,
"I’ve already arrived at the headquarters of the Supre Staff Legion. I wanted to ask Senior Supre Staff about matters related to the Mirror Image."
Evelyn froze slightly. The disappointnt in her eyes was completely undisguised.
On the contrary, Supre Staff beside her excitedly circled through the air several tis.
"See? What did I tell you? This brat has an extrely clear goal in mind. He won’t be thinking about matters of love and romance."
"Evelyn, turn back while you still can. You and Caelan don’t have a chance!"
However, after a brief mont of stunned silence, Evelyn’s face once again returned to a calm smile.
"Lord Caelan, please wait a mont. I’ll return to the Supre Staff Legion right away."
...
A short dozen minutes later, Evelyn returned to the headquarters of the Supre Staff Legion.
Very soon, under the guidance of the staff, Evelyn t Caelan in the conference room.
The two sides greeted each other in a very friendly manner.
It was only after the staff mber left that Evelyn took the initiative to stand up and close the door of the conference room.
In the spacious conference room, only she and Caelan remained.
Evelyn instantly felt much more relaxed.
She leaned comfortably against the sofa, her fair toes gently swaying.
"So, Lord Caelan, have all of your [Star Ascension Quests] already been completed?"
When Caelan heard this, he imdiately waved his hand.
"Not that quickly. If I want to finish all of them, I’ll probably still need another two or three days."
This answer clearly exceeded Evelyn’s expectations. She subconsciously asked in return,
"Then why are you in such a hurry to co here and ask about the Mirror Image?"
Faced with Evelyn’s confusion, Caelan coughed lightly. His tone was also rather strange.
"You may not know this, but my Mirror Image is a girl."
???
This ti, Evelyn was completely dumbfounded!
Although according to Supre Staff, the gender of a Mirror Image was actually random, she could not understand why Caelan could be so certain about it.
Caelan fell silent for a mont.
Then he told Evelyn everything that had happened to him, as well as all of his guesses.
On the other side, Evelyn never could have dread that the result would be like this.
For a mont, she actually had no idea what kind of reaction she should make.
Caelan rubbed his hands together, his expression also sowhat awkward.
"So I wanted to ask Senior Supre Staff what exactly is going on here."
A frightened expression appeared on Evelyn’s face.
In truth, the situation Caelan described had already made the hairs on her body stand on end.
Compared to Caelan’s special situation, Evelyn’s Mirror Image was clearly much more normal.
On the other side, after hearing Caelan’s description, Supre Staff imdiately revealed an excited expression as well.
"Such an interesting situation is truly worth discussing and analyzing. Let think. This kind of situation..."
Supre Staff quietly floated in midair, completely motionless, as though it were nothing more than an ordinary staff.
But both Evelyn and Caelan knew very well that the current Supre Staff was undergoing mory retrieval.
For an existence like Supre Staff, which had lived through several eras, it had sealed away most of its unimportant mories in order to prevent problems from arising with its self-cognition.
Only when necessary would it unlock those mories and look through the relevant information.
A mont later, Supre Staff spoke and asked,
"Little Caelan, when you were young, did you ever think about having a younger sister? I an a kind of longing..."
The reason Supre Staff asked this was because even after going through all of its mories, it had only found a portion of relevant information.
According to its mories, there was indeed a probability that a Mirror Image could be born as the opposite sex. However, this kind of birth was usually compensatory in nature. It represented a regret of the host being made up for by the Mirror Image.
Yet faced with Supre Staff’s question, Caelan revealed a strange expression.
"In truth, although I’m an only child, because my family circumstances were rather special, I don’t really feel that having another sibling would be such a happy thing. To be precise, my feeling toward it is... nothing."
Caelan rubbed his brow and very frankly expressed the thoughts deep within his heart.
On the other side, Evelyn also frowned and asked,
"So is there a possibility that you actually always had a younger sister, but for so reason, she was never born and instead remained by your side in the form of a guardian spirit?"
