Chapter 119: Chapter 118: The Scrutiny of Outsiders

"Aren’t you going to see Yila?"

The human female asked Wenresa Iluvita who was beside her. The half-elf didn’t say anything, just turned her head and looked at her with shimmering eyes.

"Ah, I can’t stand you anymore... you’re a real pervert!"

The human female cursed, knowing full well that Wenresa’s current vision must be filled with Yila... After all, she had very convenient magic for voyeurism and indeed enjoyed peeping.

Wenresa could obtain a broader perspective through the derivative of her vision.

"I just find it interesting, and... before questioning me, you must’ve felt it too, right?"

The human female reluctantly nodded and said, "Yes, there seem to be so many onlookers watching Yila. It feels like they’ve been watching for a while, even longer than you."

As those words fell, both of them simultaneously sensed many gazes directed towards them. These were the onlookers again, responding with various emotions to the word "pervert."

Most of them responded with disdain.

"We are in no position to judge them, and they are in no position to judge us. They only noticed us wandering and awake when we got close to Yila, just as we only noticed them after they saw us."

Wenresa Iluvita said this, half of her eyes recovering from that multicolored shimmering state. She gently looked towards the horizon and said, "Similarly, they only noticed the archaic stone tablet at this time."

Yes, very interestingly, the onlookers who had been watching Yila all this time learned about the stone tablet later than Wenresa and the human female. They only noticed the tablet after noticing Wenresa.

And only then did they see the inscriptions on it.

"..."

"Indeed, no one seems to have the intention to do anything... those who are awake now are just like us."

Wenresa Iluvita shook her head helplessly. She gently stepped forward, causing the air in front of her to distort as if she were stepping into the distortion itself. Half of her leg began to gradually fade into the void.

"Yes, it seems like no one cares. It’s just the end of the world, after all..."

The human female sighed, mentally lamenting the indifference and laziness of the onlookers, marveling at their selfishness and pursuit of amusement. Just as she was about to continue speaking, she saw Wenresa preparing to leave the Void Realm.

"Wait, Wenresa, take me with you!"

The human female grabbed Wenresa’s hand and followed her steps, entering the distortion that symbolized the connection between the Void Realm and the Main Plane.

Yes, even she didn’t particularly care, as she was also one of the onlookers.

"..."

They left, leaving only silence behind.

The inexplicable gazes shifted away, and most refocused on Yila... A few seemed to be stirred, and the dormant shells gradually began to move again.

But that is a story for another time.

——————————

"Auntie? You were gone just before we reached the Demon King Territory. Are you avoiding Yila?"

Looking at Wenresa Iluvita, who had suddenly appeared on the carriage, Cassiopeia asked skeptically. Seeing an unfamiliar human appear simultaneously with Wenresa, she asked, "Who is this?"

The human female was also a bit surprised. She looked at Wenresa Iluvita and asked, "Wait, is this Cassiopeia? What did she call you? Auntie? You have that kind of relationship?"

Apparently, Wenresa Iluvita had never told the human female about Cassiopeia’s situation. Although unspoken, there were customary agreements among the onlookers.

"Who are you?"

To Cassiopeia’s confused and cute question, the human female furrowed her brows and looked at the relaxed Wenresa, asking in a low voice, "Wenresa, how much does she know?"

The implied question doubted whether Wenresa had told Cassiopeia about the onlookers or if she knew about Wenresa being an onlooker.

"She knows what she needs to know, including my identity and the existence of the onlookers... To be honest, the latter isn’t really a secret in the world."

Wenresa spoke nonchalantly. As she comfortably sat across from Cassiopeia, she continued, "What’s wrong? I’m not interfering in Main World affairs, am I?"

Indeed, the customary rule was not to interfere with the Main World. After all, onlookers liked watching events unfold. Many onlookers, like Wenresa, disliked the act of "Mechanical Divine."

Everyone disliked scenarios like "using Gold Coins to smash the Evil Dragon and help the Hero," as there were always viewers who liked the Evil Dragon... though they might be fewer.

However, just through communication and connection, it was easy to develop feelings for everything in the Main World. If someone familiar asked for help, the onlookers would find it hard not to intervene.

This was natural for beings (intelligent creatures). Even if many onlookers were beyond mere beings (intelligent creatures), they would still care if they spent time together. Once they cared, they would lose something.

After all, not every person the onlookers cared about could become an onlooker. Even with help from an onlooker, it might not be possible. Parting through life and death was always the hardest to endure, so the best choice remained to be just a viewer.

Like this human female with the surname Yaylimeinoceyatos, who had never been concerned with her family’s affairs before becoming an onlooker. But... Wenresa seemed confident in her ability, so the human female decided to trust her for now.

Amid the human female’s thoughts, Cassiopeia seemed to catch on to something. She looked at the second onlooker she’d ever seen and asked in surprise, "Wow, are you an onlooker too? Are you as powerful as my auntie?"

Being looked at by Cassiopeia in this way, the human female naturally felt proud. She put her hands on her hips and said, "Of course, I’m definitely more... um..."

The human female, who was about to say, "more powerful," noticed Wenresa’s displeased expression and immediately changed her tone: "weaker by just a tiny bit~"

However, even after saying this, Wenresa’s expression didn’t improve much.

"..."

"..."

"I see, you don’t like being called ’Auntie’~ Hahaha!!! So funny... Ah, ah! Wait, what are you doing, Wenresa?! Ah!! Stop! Your junior is watching!"
