The saintess I possessed had a head full of nonsense.

【Amazing!】Christine's review.

Let's go. After witnessing Mr. Chris's breakthrough, I think I should be able to develop my "Mind's Eye" (a powerful ability to perceive information).

"yes"

Li Xuan returned from the world of magic, got up from his bed, and stood there quietly, recalling everything from his extraordinary encounter.

[Completed the event 'The Saintess's Faith', obtained 5 consecutive draws from the 'Eternal Light' gacha pool]

Li Xuan seemed not to hear, sensing the endless darkness together with the Holy Maiden.

"If this is what these eyes see?"

"Then we might as well not have these eyes."

After an unknown amount of time, a pair of bright blue eyes suddenly opened in the darkness.

A discerning mind, and success.

This is the talent of Saint Christine.

[Mind's Eye]

Restriction: The mage's mental state must be stable.

Effect: Waves are the mind, and the mind is the eye. Enter the world of the mind's eye and see everything around you through the waves. This seal does not occupy a seal slot.

A very unique sign that doesn't even require a sign slot!

Li Xuan "looked" around, and what he saw was different from what his eyes could see. Countless ripples emanated from the sky and earth, and he clearly knew that this was a bed, this was a table, this was the saintess's white silk, this was the saintess's...

He opened the door, walked towards the church, and stopped at a spot where someone else had also stopped and was “looking” at him.

Christine held the Old Testament in her hands. She turned to the last page, where some words were written.

A relieved smile appeared on her beautiful face as she read aloud, "Mr. Chris, it's so good to see you alive. Also..."

"Thank you."

Chapter 64 Memory Retrieval, 20 consecutive draws

"I am deeply honored that Your Holiness is concerned for my safety, but my mission this time does not seem to be dangerous at all?"

In the vision of [Mind's Eye], the old blind man Chris scratched his head: "Are you thanking me because I saved someone the Holy Maiden knew during this mission?"

[Waaaaah. She really is... I'm crying my eyes out. A tough woman like me is crying? Could it be that he isn't Mr. Chris?] Christine's eyes were already slightly wet, and she was about to wipe them when this happened.

“Yes,” Li Xuan replied.

"Thank you for your concern, Holy Maiden. As for saving people, it is my duty. Praise be to God!"

"By the way, the Tide of the Seals is approaching, and the Seven Deadly Sins are growing stronger. This will be another calamity for the Church. I hope that both the Holy Maiden and I can survive this ordeal," Old Blind Chris sighed.

Could it be that Mr. Chris is some famous figure in church history, and our Mr. Chris is merely a clumsy imitator? Isn't that too much of a coincidence?

The 'Tragedy of the Saint' happened thousands of years ago. If Mr. Chris were still alive, how old would he be?

"No, he's most likely Chris. In the original timeline, the saintess was killed, and Chris fell into a coma. Something must have happened afterward, and that was in the early stages. Now that he's living in seclusion here, it's normal that he doesn't want to reveal his identity, after all..."

People change.

Li Xuan stood still for a moment, and Chris brushed past him, saying, "I still have a mission to complete, Your Majesty. See you later."

He went back to Christine's room and cast a spell.

Memory retrieval!

Perhaps it was a gift from the magical realm, but Li Xuan had already used this magical seal during a serendipitous quest. The 30-day cooldown was quite long, but after leaving the magical realm, the magical seal was not on cooldown!

Once Li Xuan returns to his original body and obtains the magic seal, he can retrieve it again, making it a master of nested dolls.

Since that's the case, let's use Saint Christine's [Memory Retrieval] to search for all the information about 'Sword Saint Chris' in Li Xuan's memories!

Even though it's Christine's brain now, her memories should still be searchable, right?

If Christine uses the seal in this way, she can probably see his memories too, right?

By the way, he probably hasn't read any hentai manga or AVI series with a male protagonist named 'Chris', has he?

Wait, could the female lead also be named Chris?

Fortunately, he doesn't like Western styles.

The keyword is "Chris"!

"What...something sprayed out!" Christine exclaimed.

Li Xuan checked his memories and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Apart from some messy information about "Chris closing the door," no shameful memories surfaced.

But the amount of information was much less than Li Xuan had imagined.

It's roughly in the format of "Lu Xun, whose real name was Murphy, was from Shitouren, Zhejiang."

Besides what we already knew—that the Sword Saint who closed the 'Astral Gate' would be taught the 'Wave Burst,' 'Mind's Eye,' and 'Killing Intent Wave' hand seals would be passed on to him as the 'Wave Profound Truth'—that's all the information left.

He has a daughter named Diana, who is about the same age as Christine, but he doesn't even know it!

Clearly, the designers' portrayal of the swordsman Chris in version 1.0 was very superficial, but they also laid some plot holes in later versions.

If it's so hard to cling to the saintess's leg, surely there's no way to get on Chris's leg, right?

Daughter? Daughter is great! Li Xuan wouldn't mind possessing Diana and calling her "Dad".

The frustrating thing is that the "Memory Retrieval" function can only find corresponding memories by searching for keywords, and it's unclear which Diana it is.

You're saying you can't draw it from the 'Eternal Light' gacha pool?!

Diana and Christine are of similar age, which means they are of similar levels, so he has a chance to draw them.

But I'm afraid it won't be in the 'Eternal Light' card pool.

This memory retrieval didn't seem to yield much, but Li Xuan's goal was—

[Is this your memory? The Sword Saint who closed the 'Astral Gate'?! How do you know? Just a few days ago, you didn't even know about this world's intelligence gathering capabilities, and that's why you didn't dare interact with me.]

"My true form possesses a special talent: it can receive information from the world, and sometimes this leads to great secrets."

Oh, I also stumbled upon a comic called "The Secret of Married Women" before. The male protagonist in it has that kind of ability, and he even threatens and forces his victims.

Seemingly realizing she'd let something slip, Christine quickly added: "I'd report any comic with such warped values ​​immediately!"

You should have just collected it, right?

Therefore, this Mr. Chris is very likely the one from ancient times, but after all, countless years have passed.

[Oh my god, does that mean if I learn [Killing Intent Wave], he can teach me the [Wave Profound Technique]?!]

[Completed the event 'Information Gathering of Old Blind Chris', obtained 10 consecutive pulls from the 'Eternal Light' gacha pool]

coming!

What happens to Chris is none of Li Xuan's business right now, since Chris is at a much higher level. The important thing is to make Christine believe him.

Christine might not believe it if it were just a fabrication, since there's no way to verify it, but with the memories resurfacing, Christine's doubts lessened considerably.

one left.

[Completed the event 'Concentration of the Mind's Eye', obtained 5 consecutive draws from the 'Eternal Light' gacha pool]

Adding to the previous 'Saintess's Faith', that's a full 20 consecutive draws!

Ever since he pulled the [Soul Recovery Potion Max], Li Xuan knew that although the gacha pool was a mixed bag with all sorts of contaminants, if he pulled characters, seals, items, and Craft Essences of all types, he would have unexpected gains!

Speaking of gacha pools, Li Xuan couldn't help but recall Jiang Yueyue's side, where she did a 10-pull of the 'Holy Sword' card master.

分别是【术师宝珠】（微）*2，垃圾术印*2，垃圾武器、礼装*2，历史附身次数*2、随机附身次数*1、灵魂恢复药剂max*1。

Previously, Li Xuan was able to leave the Holy Maiden's possession and return, which consumed one portion of the [Historical Possession Count]. He currently has one portion remaining.

Currently, there is a shortage of "powerful spell seals." It's not necessary to use them, but they must be "powerful" to "forcefully dispel possession."

Effects such as "active possession".

Unfortunately, these abilities all require "seals that are not much lower than the 'average level' of the main seals".

What do we do now? Should we report that I've already developed a "mind's eye"?

After the report is submitted, Archbishop Iris will take action, and Christine may be able to regain her sight as a result, while Archbishop Isaac will be punished for it.

But this event allows for a minimum of 5 consecutive draws and a maximum of 20 consecutive draws!

Moreover, even if it is reported that this was Bishop Isaac's personal behavior and the punishment is announced, it will not be enough to completely suppress the other party, as there are too many ways to escape punishment.

"Of course not! After catching your husband cheating, would you be content with simply divorcing him? Of course, you'd first try every means to transfer his assets, leaving him with nothing!"

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 65 Gluttony Seal, Seal Tide

My turn, draw a card!

Li Xuan simply used up all 20 consecutive draws at once.

The 'Eternal Light' gacha pool should be a level above the 'Holy Sword' gacha pool. It is estimated that if the game is launched, the former's revenue will be at least 5 times that of the latter.

Don't get me wrong, it's not because 'white-stockinged nuns' are more attractive to perverts than 'schoolgirls in school uniforms', okay? Well, that's part of it too, since 'Holy Sword University' is the place their company claims to have 'the last shred of conscience' when it comes to skirting the edges of morality, although Li Xuan thinks it's more like a place intended to satisfy niche fantasies.

After all, keywords like "school uniform" and "female college student" can directly conjure up a sweet image of a "pure campus" in the minds of pure love warriors.

The main reason is that the pool of the 'Church of Light' is much larger than that of the 'Holy Sword University'.

The Church of Light is one of the largest sorcerer factions in Noxus City, while the Holy Sword University may not be much different in terms of historical top combat power. However, the two have different positioning. The former has a much lower sorcerer attrition rate, and countless years of accumulation are enough to produce a qualitative change.

In short, it's all about gacha pulls!

Automatic sorting within the same category is complete.

Sorcerer's Orb (Minor) *3

Sorcerer's Orb (Small) *1

According to Jiang Yueyue, this thing is considered a "golden legendary" to other spellcasters, but in the card pool, it's at most a "blue excellent".
