End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues

Benjamin attempted several times to say something to persuade his daughter to change her mind.

However, in the end, Benjamin chose to respect his daughter's decision. He saw a reflection of his younger self in her.

Benjamin stood up and nodded towards Bonnie.

In a gentle tone, he said, "Since you have made your final decision, as your father, I will undoubtedly support you. In the current situation, everyone must exert their utmost effort to have a chance at saving humanity."

Benjamin's words deeply moved Bonnie as well.

She had originally prepared herself for a complete estrangement from her father.

She never expected Benjamin to be so agreeable this time.

"Judging by your expression, you seem quite surprised right now. Did you think I would certainly stop your actions? Did you believe I would try to persuade you to change your mind?"

Benjamin asked his daughter with a smile on his face.

With a somewhat embarrassed look, Bonnie slowly nodded.

"I did think you would do that, because you have always opposed my taking risks."

"The reason I opposed your taking risks before was that I felt you didn't truly understand what you were doing.

I initially thought you wanted to take risks simply because you found it thrilling. You treated venturing into instances and fighting monsters like a game.

However, after hearing what you just said, I now understand your determination. As your father, I will respect your decision! The city government will soon provide you with the necessary resources."

Benjamin's words finally resolved the last emotional barrier between the father and daughter.

Tears glistened at the corners of Bonnie's eyes as she excitedly embraced her father.

"Father, I knew you would understand me."

Benjamin patted his daughter's shoulder, "Of course I understand you. However, I must remind you that since you have chosen this path, no matter how rough the road ahead is, you must continue to move forward."

Bonnie nodded firmly.

"Father, I can promise you right now that no matter what kind of difficulties I encounter, I will press on without hesitation! I am determined to improve my abilities, and I am committed to making a contribution to the survival of humanity!"

Bonnie's words filled Benjamin with immense satisfaction.

"Since you have such determination, you should start taking action right away. However, before you begin, I hope you will make thorough preparations.

At the very least, you should have a general understanding of the instances you will be heading to and the monsters you will be facing. If you want to gather information about the instances and monsters around Moonlight City, head to the military base in the suburbs.

The base has a vast repository of information. General Howard will certainly not make things difficult for you. As long as you request it, he will definitely allow you to access those records."

Benjamin advised his daughter one last time.

Bonnie nodded and promptly exited Benjamin's office.

As he watched Bonnie leave, Benjamin couldn't help but sigh, "It seems I have somewhat underestimated my daughter. After all, she has grown up and it's time for her to stand on her own."

After uttering these words, Benjamin lowered his head and continued to attend to the documents on his desk.

At the same time, in the outskirts of the capital,

Kean was in the deepest part of the Lannisters' confinement chamber.

Although the building where Kean was confined was officially known as the Lannisters' confinement chamber, in reality, it also served as the Lannisters' doomsday fortress. In the event of a severe crisis in the capital, members of the Lannisters would retreat here.

Even though Kean was currently in confinement, he could still keep abreast of events happening in the outside world.

Kean had some mild suspicions regarding the sudden and comprehensive enhancement of the monsters. Nevertheless, he could only dispatch his subordinates to investigate the specifics of the situation.

"The fact that the monsters outside have undergone comprehensive enhancement in such a short time implies that the apocalypse game has entered a new phase. You all must swiftly improve your skills." Kean instructed his subordinates who had failed in their confinement mission.

"Young Master, we certainly will exert every effort to enhance our abilities as quickly as possible. However, we believe that you should also expedite the improvement of your own skills! If you remain confined here indefinitely, Jeremy might surpass you in terms of strength."

Although Kean's subordinates were well aware that Kean had already lost to Jeremy several times, none of them dared to mention in Kean's presence that his abilities were inferior to Jeremy's.

Upon hearing these words, Kean's expression twisted into a fierce grimace.

"Do not mention Jeremy's name in front of me! No matter how much his strength increases, he will ultimately lose to me. Once I get out of this confinement chamber, I will seize the opportunity to tear him limb from limb."

Kean snarled viciously at his subordinates.

However, after uttering these words, Kean calmed down. He realized that losing his temper at his subordinates here was utterly pointless.

"Alright, you don't need to stay here any longer. I have understood the information you've provided. I will find a way to get out of this confinement chamber as soon as possible." he said, regaining his composure.

After saying this, Kean waved his hand dismissively. His subordinates quickly scrambled to escape from the confinement chamber.

These days, Kean's subordinates were not having an easy time either.

Kean had been defeated by Jeremy once again and was subjected to reprimands from both the federal authorities and the Lannisters, which had made him considerably more irritable than before.

No matter how cautious they were, Kean's subordinates could inadvertently provoke his anger.

Once all the subordinates had left, Kean slowly rose from his seat.

He furrowed his brow, contemplating for a moment, before finally deciding to walk over to a large floor-to-ceiling mirror.

Kean stared intently at his reflection in the mirror.

"According to our agreement, you should be appearing now." Kean muttered to himself.

The moment he finished speaking, a sudden chill swept through the room, brushing against the surface of the mirror. Instantly, the reflection of Kean began to speak.

"Isn't it a bit too late for you to contact me now? If I'm not mistaken, you must have lost to Jeremy again. I told you before, without my assistance, you stand no chance of defeating Jeremy."

The mirrored Kean said in a mocking tone. story source m vl e mp yr

"If you're going to talk to me with that attitude, then I see no reason for us to continue this conversation. I will not collaborate with someone who holds me in contempt."

Kean retorted, preparing to walk away from the mirror.

In a hurry, the mirrored Kean exclaimed, "I'm not belittling you, I just think it's truly regrettable that you didn't choose to collaborate with me earlier."

Even if you decide to collaborate with me now, our upcoming endeavors will undoubtedly be fraught with significant challenges. I even harbor doubts about the potential success of our partnership." the mirrored Kean remarked.

Upon hearing these words, Kean's expression turned noticeably impatient.

"I have only one question for you. Are you willing to collaborate with me or not?" Kean demanded.

Without a moment's hesitation, the mirrored Kean responded, "Of course, I am eager to collaborate with you. However, the terms of our collaboration this time around differ somewhat from our previous agreements."

Kean remained silent, merely waiting for the other to spell out the terms of this collaboration.

"This time, not only will you need to sacrifice several of your subordinates, but you must also personally beseech my master for the gift of power." the mirrored Kean stated coldly.

Kean's expression became slightly conflicted upon hearing these terms.

Sacrificing his subordinates wasn't something he particularly cared about.

Being a scion of the Lannisters, he had an abundant number of subordinates at his disposal. Moreover, he could offer them terms they simply couldn't refuse.

However, pleading for the blessing of power from an unknown entity posed an immense risk.

If Kean were to take that step, he might very well end up being entirely controlled by this mysterious force. Furthermore, his innate ability allowed deities to descend upon his very being.

If the master mentioned was indeed the deity from the apocalypse game, Kean could potentially be used as a vessel for divine descent.

"I understand your hesitation now, after all, the terms of this collaboration are far more stringent than before. But I must remind you, you must make a decision promptly. With the monsters growing stronger, your leverage will wane significantly." the mirrored Kean warned.

After saying this, the reflection reverted to Kean's usual visage.

Simultaneously, a cold breeze swept across the mirror and dissipated into the room.

The situation Kean faced was indeed dire. There was no way he could easily agree to such a perilous collaboration proposal.

However, without accepting this proposal, he had no means of swiftly gaining the power necessary to defeat Jeremy.

Though he often displayed an air of arrogance, deep down, Kean was far from confident. Having suffered multiple defeats at Jeremy's hands, he was desperate to avoid another loss.

After agonizing over it for an hour or two, Kean finally made his decision.

"No matter how dangerous this collaboration may be, I've reached a point of no return! To defeat Jeremy, I am willing to bear such immense risks!"

Kean resolved to seek the blessing of power from the unknown entity.
