All I could do was observe her expression and reaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And I saw it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A slight widening of her eyelids, as if she had guessed something. Even the atmosphere around us changed; instead of the previous tension, it became... curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What kind of experiments were you subjected to?\" she asked, her tone curious, while I answered without intending to:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Experiments aimed at creating a human doll elite to serve them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was the goal of that mad doctor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After those two questions, I noticed something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This artifact didn’t force me to speak every truth, only those I clearly thought about, as long as they were enough to answer the question, of course.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So I tried to push the least important things to the surface of my mind, while avoiding thinking about the other truths... like:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>being the vessel of the devourer,and my earliest memories.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You don’t look like a doll... so why did they send you here?\" she asked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They didn’t send me,\" I replied as briefly as possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tilted her head slightly, her white hair swaying with it.\"So how are you here now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I smiled widely.\"Because I escaped... I escaped and left death behind them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes widened in shock... but not at my success in escaping... no.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was different, like when you connect many thoughts together to finally reach the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it didn’t last long; her expression soon returned to its usual calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You escaped and killed everyone behind you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I nodded.\"To be precise, I detonated the entire place by triggering the reactor core with a timed bomb... so maybe everything turned to dust when I left.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She rested her chin on her hand, studying me with her stunning crimson eyes... perhaps if we were in another situation, I would have enjoyed this sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A tense silence filled the room while I still held the artifact in my hands. I waited calmly for her next question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps it would be about how I managed to escape, or why I came to the hub... or something else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it seemed this woman had come today to shatter all my expectations and add more chaos to my thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You can move as you like now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she said this, I was able to move my body as I wanted once again, while the artifact disappeared from my hands somehow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I looked at Alicia in surprise.\"You won’t ask more?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I don’t understand... I really don’t understand her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for me now, there was something more important.\"So what’s going to happen to me now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t answer immediately; instead, she seemed to sink into deep thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With each passing moment, my heart beat faster,and I began imagining myself in a dark underground room... all my plans and desires breaking apart again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for the first time, this life seemed to smile at me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her beautiful lips moved as she spoke words that brought comfort once again.\"Nothing... you can continue being a student here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What...\" the words escaped my mouth automatically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is she pitying me now, or what?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alicia adjusted herself on the couch.\"As I said, you can stay... but there’s a condition.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is it?\" I asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You will become my assistant.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...No idea. I really had no idea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why?\" the question slipped from my mouth again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alicia raised her eyebrow.\"It’s to keep you close... and being my assistant will give you a better position than just being a student.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With those words, she stood up from the couch and faced me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why... why are you helping me?\"I wasn’t stupid. It was obvious she had hidden motives behind her actions, especially when I remembered her previous reactions... it seemed she knew everything even before I said it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if reading my thoughts, she answered my doubts:\"I have my own motives, but don’t worry... it won’t harm you as long as you stay free.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without waiting for my response, she continued:\"Come to my office tomorrow after your classes... and don’t make me come to you again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next moment, she vanished from my sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I no longer felt her presence... but just to be safe, I activated my power, and it seemed she had truly left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I relaxed my stiff body and let it sink into the soft couch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without realizing, I was already sweating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I lifted my head and looked at the ceiling.Suddenly, a loud laugh escaped from my mouth:\"Hahaha... hahahaha...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I kept laughing like a madman for a while before rubbing my face with my hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What the hell just happened...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I tried to organize my thoughts to make sense of everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In short, Alicia suspected I was one of the Void System members, so she came to interrogate me. When she realized I was just an escaped experiment, she stopped and decided to let me stay... and even more, to assist me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed the world was finally starting to smile at me, and by chance, things began to go better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pfft...\" another laugh escaped from my mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Better... by chance...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s no such thing as chance in this world, only threads of fate... and plans running for thousands of years by beings above us.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, the memories I recalled at the right time, and this conversation a while ago... no matter how I think about it, these things don’t happen by chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially the look of awareness on Alicia’s face, as if she knew something about me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems someone wants me to move along a certain path.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I placed my hand on my face as my laughter echoed in the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Interesting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a luxurious and beautiful office, Alicia suddenly appeared. She stood there, staring at piles of papers stacked on her desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She sighed and walked behind it before sitting on the chair. She leaned on its back, her eyes looking forward... lost in deep thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, it was about the conversation with Caius a while ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She rested her head on the chair and looked at the ceiling, muttering a few words:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this what that thing meant?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She recalled some things she had tested years ago... before reaching Rank 7... things she hadn’t told anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The ancient ages... will return.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1049,"2026-06-02T09:38:16.884Z",1,"novelbin.me","ac54fd4eb35c85ae4612e8183245744bcc0d28d1361d39ee2e1d36e659a491ea","reincarnated-as-the-final-villain-s-vessel-chapter-40","reincarnated-as-the-final-villain-s-vessel-chapter-38",183,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freincarnated-as-the-final-villain-s-vessel-cover.jpg"]
