~4 min read 760 words

【It's true that your status has changed, after all.】

The Harmony Topaz continued to taunt.

【.....】

【I've never changed at all!】

Topaz's expression grew increasingly furious.

【No, you've changed......】

【You're now the one doing the chasing.】

【One last game of hide-and-seek..... enjoy it while it lasts.】

Eula: "This Harmony Topaz really has no bottom line when it comes to talking!"

Eula: "Saying literally anything that comes to mind."

Hu Tao: "I think he can't wait to anger Topaz to death sooner, so he can completely take over his body."

Lumine: "Uh..... that's really one vicious newborn consciousness."

Paimon: "Topaz is actually still keeping his father's memento......"

Paimon: "He really does care a lot about family."

Topaz: "If you don't care about family, what else is there to care about?"

Topaz: "Unfortunately, just like he said, all I can do is care about caring......"

Topaz: "The last thing..... left behind by family......"

Stelle: "Friend, stay strong!"

Stelle: "I think, if your family knew how well you're doing now, they'd definitely be proud of you!"

March 7th: "Exactly, a super elite of the company — that status ranks among the entire universe!"

Topaz: "Is that so...... too bad..... to me, that doesn't really matter much....."

Lumine: "Mm.... yeah, how could empty fame compare to the importance of family?"

Zhong Li: "Sigh, the two words 'family' weigh as heavy as mountains......"

The video continued.

【That child..... will be in here?】

Topaz arrived inside the乐园,

and began searching for Kakavasha.

【This is.....】

【Topaz stone? Why is it here........】

Topaz suddenly, on the ground,

discovered a topaz stone,

which left him greatly astonished and shocked.

【Mm........】

Topaz's head began aching again.

【What, her cornerstone tears you apart that much?】

Harmony Topaz had barely settled down

when he appeared once more.

【..... I'm just curious why it's here, that's all.】

Topaz explained flatly.

【Maybe that wing-head put it here on purpose just to mock you.】

【To let you understand that the grand magic show you so carefully arranged is nothing but a death throe.】

【The cornerstone's luster is identical to the radiance of Qlipoth's holy body....... amazing you could come up with such a ridiculous excuse.】

【If he'd been a little more watchful, your lie would have crumbled at the slightest touch.】

Harmony Topaz jeered.

【It's just bait.】

Topaz raised an eyebrow.

【Of course!】

【That's why you listed Ratio's betrayal as a key part of your plan.】

【Have to say, that professor's acting was extremely convincing.】

Harmony Topaz offered a word of praise for Dr. Ratio.

【Maybe he wasn't acting at all?】

Topaz said in a low, eerie tone.

【Ha, wouldn't that play right into your hands even more?】

【That meticulous oak family head has an almost obsessive need for control — you had to give him enough information, yet not let him notice any flaw.......】

【.... So you let Ratio find him, deliberately leaking the plan.】

【To keep the other party from getting suspicious, everything you told Ratio was true, and he faithfully relayed it to Sunday.】

【In the end, that family head, through the bait you laid, found the other cornerstone as he wished — and so——】

【——you could smuggle the third stone past everyone's eyes.】

Harmony Topaz recounted Topaz's true plan in detail.

【.... Stop rummaging around in my head, bastard.】

Topaz was quite displeased with the Harmony Topaz for revealing his plan.

He was extremely annoyed.

【Your mind?】

【Is our mind.】

【You are me, I am you, no distinction between us.】

【If you want to avoid exposing yourself in front of others, the cleverest method is to first deceive yourself.......】

【If you ask me, you simply cannot deceive yourself.】

【You got lucky this time.】

【This is another cornerstone in Sunday's hands.】

【A rather beautiful green, just like you — slick, cunning......】

【Tell me, what is its name?】

Harmony Topaz took out another cornerstone,

and asked Topaz with a playful look.

【Why bother asking me specifically?】

Topaz did not answer.

【Hmph......】

【Then I'll personally help you recall.】

【Topaz is the stone of fortune and trickery.....】

【When you obtained this stone, that's what she said, right?】

【This kind of stone isn't rare, but its color is very close to a certain gemstone, so it's often used as a substitute for the latter.】

【And that more expensive gemstone......】

Harmony Topaz fell silent upon saying this.

【.....】

【Is called Jade.】

【Even that Sunday couldn't tell the difference — it seems Jade can also substitute for Topaz.】

Stelle: "???"

Stelle: "There's actually an expert?!"

Stelle: "There's a third cornerstone?!"

Stelle: "Topaz, have you lost your mind?"

Stelle: "Something this important, and you three are using them as props?"
