My obsession with role-playing seems to have distorted the world's aesthetic.

Upon hearing this, Otto revealed a thoughtful expression: "External beings? You mean those who call themselves reincarnators, beings from parallel worlds?"

Li Erlid said with a slightly doubtful tone, "It might be them, or it might not, I'm not sure."

Chapter 290: The Raven's Many Layers of Schemes~

"The starry sky is too strange at this moment, and history is changing all the time."

Although history is constantly changing, I did manage to obtain some useful information.

After hearing Lillid's words, Otto thought for a moment and said:

"Hmm, let me guess. According to ancient records, the battle for the Star of Demand has always been based on three different types of contests."

These competitions generally do not result in any injuries or fatalities. After three different competitions, the Star of the Prayer will determine who is the person who will make the prayer based on the accumulated points of the participants.

"The intelligence you mentioned... you must have already figured out the details of a certain match."

Upon hearing this, Li Erlid nodded. It would be rather strange if Otto couldn't guess this: "That's right, I've already seen the contents of the first match."

The first event in this Wishing Star competition was a speed race, a no-holds-barred race against several other participants using any vehicle.

When Otto heard Li Erlid's answer, he looked surprised. He really hadn't expected the competition to be conducted in this way.

"A race of speed... If any vehicle can be used, I am confident that Schicksal's technology in this era is no less advanced than any other organization."

Otto's confident tone seemed to give Lillid a hint of information. Looking at Otto in front of him, Lillid nodded without saying anything more.

At the same time, the screen zoomed out to St. Freya Academy, which is located far away in Asia.

It was already late in Asia, and there were very few rooms with lights on in St. Freya Academy.

"Is the Wishing Star competition reopening...? As a participant this time, what kind of news have you encountered?"

The white-haired girl looked at the starry sky outside the window and a slight smile appeared on her lips. Under the light, Theresa's aura was completely different from the past.

That's... the same kind of temperament as Otto!

"The participants that have been identified so far include the Bishop of Destiny, your grandfather, Otto Apocalypse, and Raven, a cadre of the World Serpent."

We have no leads on other participants yet, please give us some more time.

After hearing her subordinate's report, Theresa stretched and said in a leisurely tone:

"I didn't expect even Grandpa to participate in this competition... Heh, looks like this competition won't be boring."

"The student surpasses the teacher; the battle for the Star of Wishes is not a place for kinship. Don't worry, I won't lose to the Bishop of Destiny!"

Theresa's tone exuded a villainous aura, and Otto subconsciously couldn't believe his eyes when he saw the somewhat unfamiliar Theresa on the screen.

Oh my god, how did my lovely and innocent granddaughter turn out like this? What's with this big schemer vibe?

At this moment, Rita looked at Theresa on the screen with a thoughtful expression, never expecting that Lady Theresa was like this behind the scenes.

Siegfried stared blankly at Theresa on the screen, wondering what had happened to Theresa during his absence to transform her into such a villainous figure.

At St. Freya's location, Theresa looked at her reflection on the screen with shining eyes.

"Wow, look at that! That's me, the headmaster! So cool! I'm just like the boss from the Houmu comic!"

Theresa was clearly super excited at that moment, and Kiana was the same: "Auntie, you have such an amazing side to you, so cool!"

Kiana gave Theresa a thumbs-up, and at the same time, she began to consider whether she should create an organization and join it.

I always feel like everyone around me is either an organization leader or the woman who's going to be that leader, and I, an ordinary genius physicist, feel like I'm not cool enough.

Look at them, the number one leader of Liangshan Marsh, the Cloud Dragon Thunder and Lightning Yaya.

To become Seele's woman, the boss of the Passionate Organization, the boss's daughter in the eyes of outsiders, and the successor of Passionate, Bronya Zaychek.

The leader of a rather mysterious organization, Theresa Apocalypse, the headmistress of St. Freya Academy.

Comparing myself to them, this genius physicist feels like I'm not even in the same league. I've decided, I'm going to start a secret organization in a couple of days!

Children with intellectual disabilities have a lot of fun.

Although it's wrong to think that way, that was indeed Himeko's first reaction at that moment.

Sure enough, they're still two idiots.

No matter how you look at it, there is absolutely no resemblance between Principal Theresa and the Theresa on the screen who seems to have everything under control.

Himeko wanted to ask Theresa how she grew to that level in the future, and also Kiana, the boss of the mysterious organization was no joke.

If you were made the boss of some mysterious organization... that organization would probably be gone in a few days.

I recognized her instantly – it was still my silly little girl.

Otto glanced at St. Freya's location and nodded upon noticing Theresa's actions, implying that Otto had no intention of believing Theresa's earlier behavior was a pretense.

Little Theresa is so adorably silly, how could she possibly do something like pretending?

As Otto was having this thought, the scene on the screen shifted to the World Serpent, where Raven was in front of a console control panel, seemingly receiving some file.

"Raven, what's the message from the Jackal's side?"

A voice that Kiana knew all too well rang out, and upon hearing it, she instinctively uttered the name of the voice's owner: "Mei?"

The camera panned to the shadows, where a figure that everyone present was quite familiar with appeared.

The figure belongs to none other than Raiden Mei, the leader of the Liangshan heroes.

Upon seeing Raiden Mei, everyone immediately perked up. They never expected that Raiden Mei would secretly connect with the World Serpent Raven as an inside agent!

Of course, the idea of ​​them acting as inside agents is only held by some people; Raven's next sentence has already explained their relationship:

"The Jackal has already given us information. According to the information from the spy that World Serpent placed in Destiny, the first match should be a contest of speed."

By the way, guests are always welcome. Since you've come to help as an ally, we World Serpents will naturally treat you with the same respect we would show to an ally.

"Why don't you and I go to the World Snake Restaurant, Miss Mei, and try some of our world snake cuisine?"

The true meaning is revealed when the map is unrolled; the raven's words conceal its true intention.

The food in this world is truly inedible. Since a great chef has finally come along, I certainly can't let him go to waste.

Chapter 291: Spy: Can I still be saved?

"Thank you so much for your hospitality."

Mei on the screen thought for a moment and answered. Upon hearing her reply, Raven showed a relieved expression.

This is wonderful. I've learned about Raiden Mei's cooking skills through spies.

Thinking of the heartbreakingly delicious food in her own organization's cafeteria, Raven started thinking about how to trick Mei into showing off her culinary skills.

That spy repeatedly submitted suggestions to the organization, saying that Raiden Mei had great potential and was suitable to join our World Serpent.

but……

Those words were merely instructions to the Lord; Raven knew that spy all too well.

You're attracted to someone's potential? You're clearly just after their cooking skills!

Most importantly, when you report, don't deliberately describe how good Raiden Mei's cooking skills are!

You've made me crave it too!

"I didn't expect Raven to be the kind of person who's cold on the outside but warm on the inside."

Looking at the enthusiastic ravens on the screen, the night owl remarked casually.

……

Raven remained expressionless in the face of the owl's words, making it impossible for others to discern his thoughts.

At this moment, Raven felt a little doubtful. She had a feeling that the person on the screen seemed to be planning to take advantage of Raiden Mei. Under normal circumstances, she would never say such a thing.

If you're useless enough, no one can take advantage of you. Raiden Mei is powerful enough for ordinary people, but she's still too weak for the members of World Serpent.

Raven couldn't fathom how Raiden Mei, that ordinary Valkyrie, could be exploited by him.

Hmm... wait a minute, the timeline of this parallel world on the screen should be much faster than my own world. Maybe Raiden Mei has a lot of potential in this world?

Raven wondered to herself that although Raiden Mei's battle record seemed terrible, she was still a Herrscher, so she must have potential.

In that case, Raiden Mei might actually have some value in winning her over.

"Miss Raiden Mei, why don't you give our World Serpent Chef some pointers?"

At this moment, the raven on the screen finally revealed its true intentions.

That is... inviting Chef Raiden Mei to cook for World Serpent!

Within World Serpent, Raiden Mei's name is practically known to everyone.

On the communication software within World Serpent, Raiden Mei's cooking skills were directly posted by spies to a place similar to WeChat Moments.

With its captivating descriptions and delicious food, Raiden Mei has already gained considerable popularity in World Serpent.

In the real world, Raven looked at herself on the screen, having stated her purpose, and smiled wearily.

Ugh, I'm so tired...

Why, why does the other self have to cause me so much trouble? Wouldn't it be better to just play the role of a cool, domineering World Serpent executive?

...?

Kevin felt like he had a lot of questions in his mind. Raven, what are you doing, Raven?

The situation was more bizarre than he had anticipated, and Kevin was at a loss for words.

Is Raiden Mei's cooking really that delicious? Even Raven wants to bring her back to cook for you... Evolto

Kevin seemed to hear a sound like glass, a sound that reflected the style of his inner world.

Faced with Raven's request, Raiden Mei on the screen smiled confidently. She wasn't a stingy person; giving some pointers was certainly an option.

No problem, of course no problem.

After glancing at Raiden Mei, Raiden Mei unceremoniously entered World Serpent's kitchen.

I'll go into the kitchen and give you a good meal in return!

As Raiden Mei entered the kitchen, her hands moved with lightning speed, her almost unbelievable culinary skills surprising the viewer.
