Odd Containment Specialist.

Chapter 1011 Script in Progress (Part 4)
The moment Kanae saw the mask, her heart skipped a beat, as if a stone had struck her hard, its sharp edges piercing her heart, and a warm current flowed from her heart.

That mask...it was her mother's mask.

The white mask features a kind smile, with a black mark resembling a teardrop next to each eye.

“Even if you don’t go to Moyu Division, you can still see your mother. Please look at this.” Yinmingzi took out another piece of paper, unfolded it, and handed it to Kanae.

"This is?"

"A passage from a novel."

Kanae began to read it with suspicion.

Ling Xiao rubbed his bloodshot eyes, sighed, and dragged his body, which had been working overtime all night, to the water dispenser.

As she poured hot water and tossed instant coffee into the cup, she thought about how comfortable it was back home and wondered how long it would take before the exchange program ended and she could return.

The thought of having to run to three different places to follow up on manuscripts today gave Ling Xiao a headache. Matsumoto was alright, but the others were a real headache. They never submitted their manuscripts on time and always liked to procrastinate.

By the way, I wonder how Matsumoto-san's last novel sold. Ling Xiao suddenly had a whim and returned to his desk, typing Matsumoto Fuuko's name into the computer…

"What is this?" Kanae looked up in confusion.

"This is a very interesting novel called 'The Season When the Stars Fall,' and what you're seeing is a passage that contains your mother's name."

"What's wrong? I don't understand what you mean." Kanae was very anxious, but she tried her best not to show it.

She was certain the other person knew something, but she didn't understand why they were showing her this; it was just a picture of someone with the same name as her mother.

And what about the novel... what's the connection between the characters with the same name in the novel?

There must be a connection, but she worried that the woman wouldn't explain it to her clearly.

“This is your mother. You’ve probably heard the extraordinary stories of traversing narrative layers, right? Your mother is the one in the book,” Yin Mingzi said.

Kanae was completely stunned.

The information was so shocking that she couldn't think straight for a moment.

Is your own mother a character in the book?
"I don't quite understand what it means that my mother is this person in the book?" Kanae gave a stiff smile.

"This is quite complicated, and we don't know much about it either, because this book is a very strange book. Even though it appeared a long time ago, it is only now being truly understood."

But our information should be correct; the woman in the book who shares the same name as your mother is indeed your mother.

Kanae remained silent, her entire being like a wooden sculpture.

Yin Mingzi then asked, "Do you wish to see your mother?"

"Can...can I see my mother?"

“I can find a way. That’s all I can guarantee. As I’ve said before, our Six-Eyed Sect has always treated everyone with sincerity. Once we’re out of this barrier, I can show you the originals that our sect keeps,” Yin Mingzi said.

Carter remained silent. He didn't quite understand their conversation, but judging from Kanae's expression, he knew that even if Yinmingzi's promise was uncertain, its allure far exceeded that of the promise the man had made to Kanae.

The Six-Eyed Cult... what a terrifying existence.

It's hard to imagine how much trouble this group could have caused in the mortal world if the chosen ones of the Undead Travelers hadn't suppressed them. "So, you might not be able to get me to see my mother either."

"That's right, I can't give a definite promise. Although I will try my best, it's impossible to use the full strength of the entire sect, so I can't make a contract with you using the crescent moon ritual again."

These are all very real factors, and there's nothing I can do about it. After all, I'm not a god, and I can't promise something and then actually do it.

So whether you believe it or not is up to you, Ms. Kanae. However, in the previous perpetual calendar script, both of you will assist me. If one of you refuses... hehe, then the mentor will have failed.

If that happens, I will not bother you again. The Six Eyes Cult will go into hiding once more, waiting for the next opportunity.

"Perhaps hundreds of years, perhaps thousands of years, but in any case, I will certainly not be the current leader by then."

Carter was taken aback by what he heard.

He must reclaim Alice from the seal; this is their royal family's last chance!
If Kanae refuses, he will lose the possibility of cooperating with the Six Eyes Cult!

Carter quickly organized his thoughts and said to Kanae, "Kanae, they have no reason to lie to us. Judging from their understanding of my family, the hidden power of the Six Eyes Cult far exceeds that of ordinary supernatural organizations. I think we can trust them."

Kanae glanced at Carter, then turned to look at Yinmingzi, frowning and asking in a cold voice, "I believe you, but you should at least tell us what you want us to do."

"The reason we're willing to risk our lives for that lord is because he'll give us the rewards in advance. But you've only said a few words; you can't expect us to risk our lives for you based on just those few words, can you?"

Carter was taken aback again, thinking: Indeed, I should have listened to the other party's needs first. I was so excited that I forgot this most basic step.

Yin Mingzi clapped his hands lightly and laughed, "Don't worry, it's not a very dangerous thing. His Highness Carter just needs to open that door and release your extraordinary ancestor."

"Miss Kanae... I hope you can borrow the sacred weapon that your family has kept for generations. Without the Three Bright Swords, the situation will be very difficult to handle."

"That's impossible. The Three Bright Swords are kept by my grandfather. He would never give them to me! Besides... besides, I can't control them either."

“You should give it a try and have a good talk with your grandfather. I will go with you. I know some things about your grandfather, and I think... there is a high chance that I can persuade him.”

"That's good." Kanae breathed a sigh of relief.

Yin Mingzi chuckled: "About a 20% probability."

"What?! Only 20%?!"

Carter and Kanae were both shocked.

Yin Mingzi shrugged: "Gentlemen, is acting on behalf of someone 100% guaranteed to succeed through planning? In the past, there have been similarly brilliant opportunities, but our mentor still failed to succeed."

The pre-perpetual calendar was destined to be created, if not in this era, then in the future, just as the Bureau of Control would still have named and proxy entities born no matter how hard it tried.

I will do my best, but success doesn't have to be mine.

If this doesn't work... then next time. Of course, our deal still stands. Although the Six-Eyed Church will continue to hide, we will still assist you both.

"If you fail, you'll have no reason to continue. How can we trust you then?"

"It's for the future. Maybe our era will become a cycle of history?"

"At that time, our transaction will be like an exhibit; we can't let future generations question the Six-Eyed Cult's credibility."
