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

As Jeremy confirmed whether his companions had sustained serious injuries, The Person in the Mirror recounted everything that transpired within the realm of class change goddess Janna to Kean.

At that moment, Kean had successfully cleared the awakening instance, and he held the awakening gemstone firmly in his hand.

Initially, Kean had believed that with the collaboration of The Person in the Mirror and the architects of the Apocalypse Game, Jeremy's awakening would be absolutely impossible to achieve.

That way, he would have the opportunity to become the first person to awaken.

However, the unfolding events exceeded his expectations, even with multiple architects of the Apocalypse Game joining forces, Jeremy's awakening ritual still succeeded.

"Did you truly exert every ounce of your effort? How could you not even manage to stop Jeremy? Does Jeremy actually possess such formidable power?

If Jeremy's strength has reached a point where he can defeat several architects of the Apocalypse Game, how can I possibly continue to compete with him?! I might as well just go before him and concede defeat outright!"

What Kean was expressing at that moment was pure frustration.

Kean believed that the abilities of The Person in the Mirror and the architects of the Apocalypse Game, who were collaborating with him, were utterly inadequate.

Despite having the advantage in numbers, these individuals were unable to prevent Jeremy's awakening ritual from succeeding.

"Now is not the time for mere words of frustration, we must swiftly formulate our next course of action. Jeremy will soon stabilize his condition, and afterward, he will undoubtedly turn his attention towards us."

The Person in the Mirror hoped that Kean could continue to hold on.

Upon hearing this, Kean let out a cold scoff.

"Your words are quite flattering! Even if I were to persist, we would still be unable to achieve any success! You previously mentioned that the disparity between the first person to awaken and those who awaken afterward is immense."

"It seems that our collaboration must come to an end. I think I shall directly approach Jeremy and offer my apologies, if I genuinely express my remorse, he should be inclined to forgive me."

After uttering these words, Kean promptly stowed the awakening gemstone in his pocket and hastily departed from the awakening instance.

Kean's actions instilled a profound sense of panic within The Person in the Mirror.

This was because The Person in the Mirror's plans would falter without Kean's involvement.

"You cannot do this! If you proceed with such a course, we will most certainly not let you off the hook! Moreover, even if you beg for mercy, Kean will not spare you!"

The Person in the Mirror manifested before Kean in a form he was most familiar with.

"Your threats hold no weight now. The recent events have already demonstrated that your strength is not on par with Jeremy's. Furthermore, even if I were to ally with you, it would still be impossible to defeat Jeremy."

"That's not the case! As long as we coordinate flawlessly with one another, we still have a chance to overcome Jeremy. Just because Jeremy currently holds an advantage in awakening does not mean he will maintain that advantage indefinitely. We still have other opportunities."

The Person in the Mirror continued to persuade Kean with a few more words.

At this point, Kean was beginning to lose faith in what The Person in the Mirror was saying.

"You had better articulate your points more clearly. What other opportunities do we have? After completing the awakening process, Jeremy's power has already surpassed mine by a considerable margin, even if you were to offer assistance, it would be of little consequence."

"The Apocalypse Game is about to be updated to a new version.

The developers of the Apocalypse Game have also been defeated by Jeremy, and they are not the type to concede easily. Therefore, they will undoubtedly make significant adjustments to the game.

We simply need to wait for the version update of the Apocalypse Game. Once the update occurs, I will promptly provide you with ample information. At that point, you will have the advantage to enhance your strength."

The words spoken by The Person in the Mirror caused Kean to hesitate for a moment.

If the Apocalypse Game were indeed to be updated swiftly, then Jeremy would have little time to come after him.

Moreover, after the update of the Apocalypse Game, the information Kean had previously gathered would become obsolete. It seemed that he would have to rely on The Person in the Mirror for additional intelligence.

After pondering for a while, Kean nodded and said.

"I understand. In that case, I shall hasten to undergo the awakening process. Although I can no longer claim the title of the first to complete the awakening, at least my awakening will not be significantly later than Jeremy's."

Kean's attitude had shifted remarkably quickly.

Just moments ago, Kean had contemplated pleading for mercy from Jeremy, but before long, he resolved to continue opposing him.

Kean's sudden change of heart left The Person in the Mirror utterly astonished.

However, Kean had never truly intended to beg for mercy from Jeremy, his recent actions had merely been a tactic to apply pressure on The Person in the Mirror.

"You should refrain from undergoing the awakening for the time being. Currently, the class change goddess Janna is unable to provide you with awakening services, as she has sustained severe injuries during the recent battle.

Moreover, having lost the opportunity to be the first to awaken, there is no need for you to rush into it. The talents acquired by those who awaken after the first are largely similar."

The Person in the Mirror reiterated this warning to Kean once more.

Kean nodded in acknowledgment.

"So, what exactly should I be doing right now? I can't just sit here and do nothing!"

"The only task before you at this moment is to solidify your resolve. During the awakening process, your self-awareness will inevitably face the onslaught of the awakening gemstone's power.

Even in the absence of any deliberate opposition from others, it is entirely possible that the overwhelming force of the awakening gemstone could shatter your self-awareness."

The Person in the Mirror's warning did not receive much weight from Kean.

In his view, since Jeremy had managed to complete his awakening despite facing numerous obstacles, he would undoubtedly have no issues doing so without any interference.

"You are worrying excessively, I believe there will be no problems during my awakening process."

Kean did not consider his self-awareness to be particularly fragile.

He felt that his self-awareness was even stronger than Jeremy's. Therefore, he simply needed to wait for the class change goddess Janna to recover from her injuries.

Faced with Kean's obstinacy, The Person in the Mirror chose not to press the matter further.

"As long as you are confident, that is all that matters. We merely hope you do not fail due to some minor misstep during the awakening process. Should you fail during the awakening, your self-awareness will be irretrievably lost."

After delivering this statement, The Person in the Mirror vanished without a trace.

Once The Person in the Mirror departed, Kean found himself experiencing a slight headache as he muttered to himself.

"Jeremy, oh Jeremy! You truly are fortunate and blessed! To complete the awakening ritual while surrounded by so many foes is no small feat.

However, your arrogance cannot last much longer, for I am about to catch up to your level of power. Once my strength is on par with yours, with the assistance of others, I will utterly crush you."

After finishing his soliloquy, Kean chose to return to his residence.

At this moment, the butler, Farmer, who managed the villa where Kean lived, was growing increasingly anxious.

Upon seeing Kean, Butler Farmer hurried to his side and inquired.

"Young Master, where have you been? Your uncle has been searching for you for quite some time!"

Kean looked at Butler Farmer with a slightly puzzled expression.

"My uncle is looking for me? Does he have something urgent to discuss? If it's not of great importance, then I would prefer not to be disturbed."

Having said this, Kean intended to retreat to his room.

However, Butler Farmer followed closely behind him, persistently urging him,

"Young Master, your uncle is genuinely concerned about you. Therefore, I believe you should take a moment to return his call. He simply wishes to know what you have been up to."

Kean replied with evident reluctance,

"What I am doing is of no concern to him. The next time he calls, you can answer his questions directly. If you don't know the answers, then there's no need to come and ask me."

As Kean and Butler Farmer continued their dialogue, they advanced together.

Before long, Kean arrived at the door of his room, and upon opening it, he coldly addressed Butler Farmer, saying.

"You had better not relay every single detail of my affairs to my uncle.

Furthermore, I must emphasize that you are my butler. You are only required to follow my orders, not those of anyone else."

Upon hearing Kean's words, Butler Farmer's expression grew somewhat awkward.

It was clear that Kean had realized he was acting on behalf of the upper echelons of the Lannisters.

However, Butler Farmer would certainly not admit to such a thing.

"Young Master! I truly do not comprehend what you are implying. I have not disclosed anything to others. I merely wish for you to exercise greater caution in your forthcoming actions.

If you keep your uncle informed of your whereabouts, he would be able to assist you should you encounter danger. While his own strength may not be formidable, he commands many powerful awakeners under his authority."

Upon hearing Butler Farmer's statement, Kean let out a cold laugh.

"My uncle would never concern himself with me for no reason. He must have ulterior motives prompting his interest in my well-being. Therefore, you should proceed as I previously instructed.

No matter what questions my uncle poses to you, do not provide any answers. If the pressure he exerts becomes too overwhelming, simply call me. I can handle him!"
