Chapter 519 Unexpected Completion
Chapter 519 Unexpected Completion
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Not to mention Bellatrix, even Emilia was shocked when she heard about Oriana’s refusal to hand Amos over for ‘questioning’, or even acknowledge his presence in their country.
After all, given their current stance against the Black Tiger Corporation, such a move seemed to make almost no sense. That is, unless something had already completely turned the situation around without their knowledge.
No matter how the prime minister of Phoenix used the carrot and the stick, neither seemed to have any effect on the leaders of Oriana. And reluctant as she was to accept it, even Bellatrix was helpless when faced with the firm refusal from a foreign state.
She could only apologize to Emilia for not being able to completely fulfill her end of the deal, even forgetting that it was three in the morning in Phoenix.
Of course, although the crimson-haired girl was able to accept that the hero somehow escaped this time and quickly forgave her incessantly apologizing ‘ally’, it didn’t stop her from wondering just what went wrong.
All such thoughts fled her mind, however, when Cynthia’s clearly excited squeal rang through Emilia’s mind, followed by a familiar wave of energy flowing into her body.
“I don’t know how it happened, Emilia, but we did it again!”
Fortunately, neither Crystal nor Dixie could hear her voice from within Emilia’s mind, or they would definitely have woken up earlier than usual.
Just as the crimson-haired girl was blinking in confusion, her doubts were answered by a series of system notifications.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Mission 1 — To destroy the plot of ‘The White Deer corporation of the villainess goes bankrupt, and Black Tiger corporation rises to the top’, the White Deer corporation must become the number one in the world, and Black Tiger must go bankrupt! — is now complete!
Fortunately, her raven-haired partner didn’t use the notifications as a means to brag about her great contributions to their cause this time around, perhaps being finally aware of the fact that she might not get away unscathed every time.
Or maybe even Cynthia was caught off guard, and hadn’t been able to prepare as well this time.
Regardless of the reason, Emilia was actually quite disappointed that she wasn’t able to hear her partner smugly brag about her great contributions while subtly asking for praise. After all, she found it quite cute.
Emilia couldn’t help but sigh. ‘It’s been a while since I got the time to properly tease her, too. In fact, it’s been too long.’
Unfortunately, no matter how her hands itched to summon Cynthia out and tickle her to submission on the spot, the crimson-haired girl was still well aware of the fact that her partner couldn’t be disturbed much while channeling energy as she was.
Observing the flow more closely, Emilia couldn’t help but purse her lips in thought. ‘There’s quite a bit this time around too, huh?’
Fortunately, while she couldn’t interrupt Cynthia, her understanding of chaos energy now was incomparably more vast compared to when her first mission had been completed.
Helping her partner out with the channeling came to Emilia as naturally as breathing air, and within moments, the absorption rate started skyrocketing.
Current Energy Level — 47.32%…
Current Energy Level — 51.68%…
Current Energy Level — 63.55%…
From a gentle stream that poured into her sea of consciousness to an unstoppable torrent that just burst in with unstoppable momentum, the channeled energy soon filled the energy reserves in her body to seventy, eighty, and then ninety percent!
Unfortunately, just when Emilia was starting to wonder whether she would be able to hit a hundred without even completing the third mission, the flow of energy slowed down to a trickle, seemingly exhausted.
Current Energy Level — 91.83%…
Current Energy Level — 92.44%…
Current Energy Level — 94.25%…
The crimson-haired girl knew that it was about to end soon, and as she expected, the energy flowing into her slowly came to an end soon enough.
Current Energy Level — 96.81%
Emilia hummed thoughtfully. ‘In total, we got a total of just a little bit over fifty-one percent, right? Not bad!’
Given how she had been using the chaos energy quite generously after having completed her first mission, Emilia knew very well just how precious and vast her ‘rewards’ were this time, and she couldn’t help but be happy.
As long as she completed the third mission, even if she were to set a ‘hundred percent’ chaos energy aside for Cynthia, the leftovers should still be enough to keep her lovers young and healthy for a long time.
“E-Emilia, I don’t know what happened, but I’m feeling really tired right now. The channeling was much more rough than usual, so I’ll go take a quick nap, okay? Congratulations on completing the mission again!” Cynthia couldn’t help but yawn towards the end of her words, and the crimson-haired girl could practically feel her partner’s consciousness drift away into dreamland within moments.
Of course, although she felt guilty for exhausting the girl even more while trying to help her out, Emilia could only tell her to ‘Rest Well’ in embarrassment.
As soon as Cynthia was gone, the crimson-haired girl’s curiosity was reignited once more, and she couldn’t help but call Noelle right away. “Did something big happen just now?”
With the Gray Wolfe’s recent setbacks, their businesses worldwide naturally suffered quite a bit, and it wasn’t a surprise for the consistently well-performing White Deer Corporation to overtake them, even if it wasn’t by much.
But what Emilia couldn’t understand was what happened to Amos and his father to have made the hero and the world will believe that the Black Tiger Corporation was ‘lost’ completely.
After all, the crimson-haired girl was well aware that for the mission to be ‘completed’, the primary condition wasn’t just for something to happen. That was only the first step. Once it happened, not only did the hero — and by extension, the world will — need to become aware of it, but he must also acknowledge it!
