But what does this have to do with her, the leader of the Thousand Eyes who doesn't care about anything?

Their battle has come to an end.

"No matter what, we are the victors, and we must act like victors."

With a somewhat forced smile, the Goddess of a Thousand Eyes made her announcement.

"Let's have some fun, it's time for the rewards!"

As the goddess spoke, the golden parchment announcing the end of the game slowly drifted down from the sky.

Chapter 462 The Victor of the Setting Sun

The game name bestowed upon me is: 'Sunset'

Participant Overview: Volunteers and members of the fighting community gathered under the Thousand Eyes banner.

We pledge to respect the above and, based on honor, the banner, and the rights of the organizer, host the Gift Game.

'Thousand Eyes' Seal

The parchment, adorned with the emblem of the two goddesses, emitted a warm, golden glow, signaling the end of the game.

The members of the expedition team, who had gathered in the underground shelter set up by Thousand Eyes, were momentarily stunned by their previous agitation and chaos.

Then, an even greater commotion arose.

"Is it over?!"

The burly god-holder could no longer maintain his usual composure, his eyes widening in excitement.

At this point, the game ending only signifies one thing.

—The twelve-day disaster has ended.

The burly man who held the divine title was already considered to be performing relatively well; around him, there were quite a few others who were talking incoherently and gesticulating wildly.

The news spread throughout the entire shelter, starting with the disturbance caused by the punitive expedition.

What followed was an even larger uproar.

The events that occurred around the age of twelve were so unforgettable for them that they left a lifelong psychological scar.

Not to mention the erratic beams of light and the inexplicable distortions and tears in space.

Without warning—truly without the slightest warning—the earth was dug up, cities vanished completely, and those who lost their lives didn't even have the chance to be warned, 'Hey, you're going to die.' They were completely wiped from the world without ever realizing it.

Among them are even those who possess divine status... even beings at the level of gods.

For the deceased, this method of death might be considered the best, right? But for those who witnessed it firsthand, it wasn't so.

Not to mention that this situation continued to occur outside the shelter for twelve days.

No one even knows when or how it might happen to them.

Frankly, even if they are filled with excitement, many people don't even know how to express that excitement.

Should we cheer or feel relieved that the disaster is over? Or should we grieve for all that the disaster caused? Or should we vent our anger on the disaster itself?

...Or perhaps this anger should be directed at the Thousand Eyes, who are closely related to the occurrence of this disaster?

People with different personalities make different choices; the world is full of diverse and varied experiences.

However, this near-riotous chaos, like twelve days ago, came to a halt with the appearance of one person... no, this time it should be three.

From the entrance of the shelter all the way to the center, everyone silently made way, letting the three walk by indifferently.

Although things quieted down, everyone's emotions were quietly brewing.

The goddess had changed back into the white robes and veil that gave her a grand air, while the blonde girl had changed into a red princess dress during her battle with the dragon, looking quite adorable.

As for Orpheus... he still wore the black robe that was as convenient as possible.

At this moment, the dragon goddess girl was feeling a little drowsy.

Moreover, the oppressive atmosphere here makes people very uncomfortable.

Ten minutes later, they finally reached the high platform of the shelter.

"Wait a moment."

He whispered something, and the goddess flew to the high platform.

Although things calmed down at first, it couldn't last long, and now the crowd below is showing signs of starting to riot again.

In fact, no one present knew the exact information about the three people who had just walked in.

Although the Thousand-Eyed Goddess is famous as a trademark, it has almost no presence as a goddess, to the point that it is hard to even hear about in legends... not to mention that even the trademark of the two goddesses looks more like two door gods than goddesses.

If their identity is exposed, that would be impressive, but if it isn't exposed, it's highly unlikely that anyone would make that connection.

Therefore, this true goddess, who has not yet revealed her name, is currently only known as the leader of the Thousand Eyes team.

Needless to say, the goddess has the title of "Thousand Eyes" to speak of, while these two are just country bumpkins who appeared out of nowhere.

Regardless of what happened in the past, these three people will surely be remembered by everyone present from today onwards, and their names will gradually spread throughout the Little Garden.

The fact that they survived a battle of that level alone is commendable.

Many people are now inquiring about these people.

However, before the riot could escalate, the Goddess of a Thousand Eyes slowly spoke, her ethereal voice, through some special blessing, reaching all the Thousand Eyes Sanctuaries that had been opened because of this incident.

"One good news and one bad news."

As always, without any preamble, the goddess got straight to the point.

"Let me tell you the good news first."

Instead of giving everyone a chance to choose, the goddess started with good news.

"The sun has set, and the objective of this operation against the Demon King has been achieved. Next, we will give corresponding rewards according to the contributions of each community."

This good news is completely unnecessary, since that was the initial winning condition for the game. Now that the game has ended normally rather than as a loss, this information has been confirmed and is known to everyone.

There was no surprise whatsoever.

However, before anyone could think, the Thousand-Eyed Goddess continued speaking.

"The bad news is that the demon king's campaign failed; the enemy was not completely defeated."

—As soon as the words were spoken, the already tense atmosphere was completely ignited.

"What a joke! You say it's not resolved?! After launching such a confident attack at the beginning, and then paying such a price—and the result you Thousand Eyes give is that it's not resolved?!"

It started with an unidentified question, and the previously suppressed emotions erupted directly at Alpha.

The sounds of countless people shouting and yelling instantly filled the entire space, making it incredibly chaotic and noisy even in this place that had the blessing of expanded space.

"It was indeed a mistake on Thousand Eyes' part to misjudge the Demon King's strength, and I am very sorry."

But the goddess's calm voice still drowned out everything, though the restless noise did not stop with this apology.

"Qianyan will take full responsibility for rebuilding the damaged outer gate and compensating for all losses. At the same time, we will also pursue the two-digit demon king who caused this incident. Such a tragedy will not be repeated. Please rest assured."

After the goddess finished speaking, the noise in the arena did indeed subside considerably.

It wasn't because everyone was truly at ease, but because of the information hidden within the goddess's mythology.

...This time, the Demon King is a two-digit number?

The atmosphere became somewhat awkward for a moment.

—For a demon king with a two-digit power, simply 'repelling' him is enough to be called a miracle, and any sacrifice made on top of that is worthwhile.

Although this statement is completely unrealistic, it is still a principle that can be recognized as common sense by those present.

"Finally, I want to announce..."

Ignoring the astonished crowd, the goddess did not stop.

"In this game... the winner who contributed the most in 'Sunset'—was the community 'Ouroboros'!"

Everyone was stunned again.

The name of this community must be completely unfamiliar to them, and at first glance, they thought the game was more like a scheme for Thousand Eyes to enrich himself, but they never expected that they would actually hand over the victory.

"That being said, now is not the time to celebrate or dwell on the victory. If you have any objections or doubts about this, you can consult the Garden Noble. Rescue operations in the disaster area have already begun, and reconstruction will begin immediately... Please rest assured."

Finally, she repeated her reassuring words to everyone, and then turned and left.

As the goddess's figure slowly disappeared after turning around, the two girls who were originally standing at the front of the stands also vanished.

Chapter 463 Unexpected News

"Are you there? Check if the rescue operation has started, and then check if there has been a new historical transition period outside, the sooner the better."

"Huh? Wait..."

The goddess with a thousand eyes casually cut off her communication with someone she didn't know, and sat down in front of Orpheus and the blonde girl who had been transferred with her.

"Thank you all for this. The birth of that star beast was truly unexpected... Ah, a star beast can be said to represent the sovereignty of a star. In other words, it's not a problem to borrow the power of sovereignty. Even if the previous star beast dragon was only newly born, since it represents the solar sovereignty, which is one of the most powerful among all star sovereigntyes, its combat power alone should be at least in the triple digits. If anything had gone wrong... the situation would have almost gotten out of control..."

Seemingly considering that Orpheus's understanding of the miniature garden might not be complete, the goddess thoughtfully provided some information about star beasts.

Orpheus tilted his head.

"In that case, why me?"

The winner of that gift game just now seems very strange.

In terms of combat, the goddess fought from beginning to end just like her, and was also the main force in containing the aftermath of the battle. In this light, Orpheus's achievement of saving those people at the beginning is not enough to make a difference.

Not to mention that the blonde girl was arguably the most crucial character in this battle; without her... it's uncertain whether this incident would have ended by now.

Considering that the goddess was the initiator and leader of this campaign, Orpheus seems to be the most dispensable of the three.

"Ah, actually, we had to consider a lot of factors. In terms of contribution, the three of us were about the same... If we really had to compare, it would probably have to be confirmed by the Garden Nobles. But in any case, under these circumstances, Thousand Eyes can't be the winner..."

The goddess looked somewhat helpless.
