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

Kean took measured steps until he stood directly in front of the butler, Farmer.

He lowered his voice and, with an exceptionally cold tone, inquired, "What exactly have you been telling my elders?"

Upon hearing this question, Butler Farmer broke into a cold sweat, his entire body beginning to tremble uncontrollably.

"Young Master, I have only dealt with your elders as per your instructions. I did not divulge your plans, I merely informed them that you had a very important matter to attend to."

When Butler Farmer spoke these words, his voice was trembling.

Kean scrutinized him for a moment with a blank expression.

"Perhaps what you say is true. Did they have any messages they wanted you to convey to me?"

Kean took several steps back and casually sat down on a nearby sofa.

Since Kean had increased the distance between himself and Butler Farmer, the pressure on the butler was not as intense as before.

Butler Farmer breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly responded.

"The head of the family had no specific messages for me to convey. However, your uncle did ask me to relay a message to you." Butler Farmer responded.

"Oh? What important words does my uncle wish to share with me?" Kean inquired, intrigued.

"He wanted me to tell you that regardless of whether your endeavor succeeds or fails, do not get entangled with the Lannisters. The Lannisters will never oppose other powerful families within the federation for your sake."

Upon hearing this, Kean burst into laughter.

"My uncle remains the same timid man he always was." he remarked sarcastically.

After a brief pause, Kean's tone turned cold as he added, "Fine. I understand. You are to inform my uncle immediately that my business is concluded and will not affect him or the Lannisters in any way.

Moreover, I have no intention of being at odds with Jeremy anymore. As long as Jeremy doesn't trouble me, I will not trouble him. He can rest assured."

Having said this, Kean waved dismissively at Butler Farmer.

Butler Farmer promptly exited the room, relieved to be out of Kean's presence.

After Butler Farmer had departed, Kean, maintaining his stoic expression, moved to a corner of his room. There, a hidden safe was concealed.

Upon unlocking the safe, Kean retrieved several pieces of equipment from within.

These items were all intricately connected to sunlight, some were designed to harness the power of sunlight directly.

Other pieces of equipment could utilize sunlight's energy to heal the user's injuries.

Though Kean had decided to collaborate with The Person in the Mirror,

he had not been entirely truthful with them. Among his possessions were indeed items related to sunlight.

In fact, Kean had not been completely honest with The Person in the Mirror, nor had he been forthright with Butler Farmer. He had never truly confided in anyone.

Kean was a man who placed his trust in no one else.

Kean had always been the epitome of a self-centered individual.

He trusted solely in his own strength and judgment, never taking anyone else's information at face value.

"By tomorrow noon, I'll present these items to The Person in the Mirror. Surely, they will then provide me with some additional information." he mused.

"After that, I will head to my family's vault and retrieve all items related to sunlight, rules, and contracts. Then, I'll supply them to The Person in the Mirror in batches.

This way, I can extract the maximum amount of useful information from The Person in the Mirror." Kean concluded with a calculated air.

He had meticulously planned his next course of action.

He had no intention of handing over all the desired items to The Person in the Mirror at once. Kean believed that The Person in the Mirror had certainly withheld parts of their plan to resurrect the deity.

Meanwhile, Butler Farmer stormed through the villa, seething with anger.

"I really shouldn't have gone out of my way to help him! He's an ungrateful wretch! How could his plans have gone so smoothly without my assistance?!"

"If it weren't for me tending to his every need, how would he have been able to enhance his strength so effortlessly?!"

The person Butler Farmer was grumbling about was, of course, Kean.

Although Kean was technically his young master, Butler Farmer always considered himself a paternal figure to Kean.

Kean should maintain some measure of respect towards him, no matter the circumstances.

However, in their recent conversation, not only did Kean show no respect for Butler Farmer, but he also incessantly blamed him.

As Butler Farmer reached the villa's entrance, he turned around to take one last look at the grand hall.

"It seems that continuing to follow Kean holds no future for me! I must seek other opportunities!"

Initially, Butler Farmer intended to maintain a delicate balance between Kean and the upper echelons of the Lannisters. He believed that he couldn't afford to betray either Kean or the Lannisters' leadership.

However, after the recent incident, Butler Farmer had made up his mind to fully align himself with the Lannisters' upper echelon.

Resolute in his decision, Butler Farmer immediately left Kean's villa and returned to his own quarters.

Upon returning to his residence, Butler Farmer promptly dialed the number of Kean's uncle.

"Since you're calling me now, it means you have discovered Kean's whereabouts, haven't you? Where exactly is Kean? And has he managed to defeat Jeremy?"

The voice on the other end of the line belonged to Kean's uncle, carrying a tone of sternness.

Butler Farmer took a moment to gather his thoughts before responding in a humble tone.

"You are correct, sir. I am calling because I have indeed found out where Kean is. He has just returned to his villa on the outskirts of the capital."

Kean's uncle, upon hearing this news, asked in a slightly surprised tone,

"He actually returned to the capital so quickly? Although awakening in the apocalypse game grants some items, I recall there being no item capable of enabling swift travel between Moonlight City and the capital."

Despite not being an awakener himself, Kean's uncle.

Due to his high-ranking position within the Lannisters and his significant role in the federal government, was well-informed about awakeners and their associated items.

"I also don't know how Young Master Kean managed to return, but he just suddenly showed up. His abrupt return startled me as well."

Butler Farmer, unsure of how to explain, simply conveyed everything he knew.

Kean's uncle did not pursue the matter further.

"Since he has returned, did you ask him where he had been and what he was doing?"

"Of course, I asked him those questions as per your instructions. He provided me with very clear answers." Butler Farmer replied humbly.

"Young Master Kean indeed went to Moonlight City, but it seems he didn't become enemies with Jeremy. Moreover, he told me that he doesn't intend to oppose Jeremy any longer.

If Jeremy doesn't target him, he won't seek trouble with Jeremy. It appears that Young Master Kean has realized that defeating Jeremy is an impossibility for him."

Part of what Butler Farmer conveyed was directly from Kean, while the rest was his own speculation.

Kean's uncle fell silent for a moment after hearing Butler Farmer's words.

"I have not yet received any additional intelligence from Moonlight City. Once I obtain further information, I will provide you with new directives.

Your current task is straightforward: keep a close watch on Kean. Under no circumstances should you allow him to undertake any more reckless actions.

You must make him understand that he represents not just himself, but our entire Lannisters family."

After delivering these instructions, Kean's uncle abruptly ended the call.

Although the news that Kean had returned to his villa on the outskirts of the capital and no longer intended to oppose Jeremy was favorable to Kean's uncle.

He couldn't shake the feeling that Kean's current stance might only signify that he was preparing for some other, more unexpected plan.

"It seems I must urge my subordinates to expedite the transmission of all intelligence from Moonlight City. What kind of unexpected circumstances did Kean encounter there?

Why did he suddenly decide to cease his enmity with Jeremy? Kean is not someone who easily lets go of grudges. He has always been a person who repays even the smallest slight."

Kean's uncle remained deeply puzzled.

However, he had no intention of confronting Kean directly, as their relationship was not particularly good.

Kean's father, who was his younger brother, had passed away several years ago, and the cause of death was closely related to him.

Just as Kean's uncle was contemplating the next course of action, his secretary suddenly pushed the door open and walked in.

"Your schedule for the upcoming week has been prepared. If you have no additional requests or modifications, please sign at the bottom of the schedule."

Kean's uncle took the schedule from his secretary, and after briefly scanning through it, he signed at the bottom without hesitation.

However, during the signing process, he suddenly noticed that his schedule included a meeting with Federal General Howard from Moonlight City.

Even though he wouldn't be the only one meeting with Howard, it still presented an excellent opportunity for him to gather critical intelligence from Howard.
