Chapter 2619: Chapter 1756: The Final Plan (Eating Too Much Beef Causes Inflammation)_2
Instead, the Magic Research Department made Hei Chuan Chi Yin breathe a sigh of relief. The elf girl with long ears, Frieren, looked like a living puppet, Lani, and the magician-styled Medea and Alice—all of these matched the image Hei Chuan Chi Yin had in her mind about magic.
These people formed the entire high-level management of the Tribunal.
Of course, besides that, what impressed Hei Chuan Chi Yin the most was the Tribunal’s combat power.
The grand fleet, glittering in gold, and the billions of Night Guards—that fit the image Hei Chuan Chi Yin had of the Tribunal.
What impression is that?
Battle maniacs.
Earlier, when she saw those unique girls, Hei Chuan Chi Yin momentarily doubted whether she had developed some sort of stereotype about the Tribunal due to Duanmu Huai’s influence.
Now she’s relieved; it’s not a stereotype.
Besides, Mianmu Zuoniao, Naruse Mio, Banriya, Ling’Nu, Alicia....
After turning a corner, Hei Chuan Chi Yin’s only question was, why are all the high-ranking members of this Tribunal female?
When she curiously raised this question to Duanmu Huai, he simply stared at her.
"Why would you think I’d find a man more handsome than me?"
"........"
Hei Chuan Chi Yin instantly understood that it was indeed quite difficult.
Overall, Hei Chuan Chi Yin’s first appearance in the Tribunal was relatively smooth, except for the gaze from Ogis, the girl who kept sitting on Duanmu Huai’s shoulder upon their return, which made Hei Chuan Chi Yin feel a bit tense. Nonetheless, others were friendly and even curious about Hei Chuan Chi Yin.
This allowed Hei Chuan Chi Yin to relax somewhat.
Hei Chuan Chi Yin was curious about others, and others were equally curious about her. After all, the girls Duanmu Huai previously brought back had talents in some aspect, mostly specialized in combat, except Zhenjiling.
However, Duanmu Huai introduced Hei Chuan Chi Yin by saying she excels in acting, calling her a genius actor in her world.
This made the girls unable to hold back their surprise.
Although it’s no news that those of high status love singing and dancing, they knew definitively that Duanmu Huai wasn’t interested in these things. During Miss Nightingale’s concert, he slept through until it ended. How could someone so devoid of artistic cells actually watch singing, dancing, acting?
Are you kidding me?
What exactly did Great Judge experience in that world?
This made the girls extremely curious. After Duanmu Huai finished introducing Hei Chuan Chi Yin to them and returned to his study for a report, they immediately grabbed Hei Chuan Chi Yin and took her to the reception room.
Of course, they weren’t trying to lay down the law but wanted to hear some interesting stories.
"Do you really only act?"
"Ah, yes, yes... Miss Ann..."
Facing Ann, who rushed forward to grab her hands, Hei Chuan Chi Yin had to nod.
"I’m the lead actor of the theater group LALALAI..."
Incidentally, Fureya and Nolan knew things weren’t going well and had already snuck into Hei Chuan Chi Yin’s body to hide.
They were spiritual bodies, invisible to regular people, but here there certainly weren’t any regular folks.
"How did you meet Sir Judge?"
"Uh... we once starred in a film together..."
"Sir Judge? Starring in a film?"
Upon hearing this, Ann’s eyes glittered with excitement, and others gathered curiously.
"Really?"
"Not kidding?"
"Great Judge starring in a movie? As a psychopath?"
"No, no, no......"
Faced with their questions, Hei Chuan Chi Yin quickly waved her hands.
"It was a romance film, Duanmu... Mr. Duanmu was the lead."
"???"
Her words caused everyone present to freeze.
"Mr. Duanmu starred in a romance film?"
Mary frowned, but despite her creative prowess, she couldn’t imagine Duanmu Huai as a romantic lead. She might’ve pictured him as a villain sabotaging lovers, but as the romantic lead?
Mary closed her eyes, and a scene emerged in her mind.
A giant 2.5 meters tall, dressed in a black suit outlining his muscles, with a rose in his mouth... No, a rose was too small to be more than a toothpick for someone of Mr. Duanmu’s height....
So... A 2.5-meter tall giant, clad in a black suit, with a small sapling in his mouth, approached the female lead and lowered his head, gazing at her as she closed her eyes under his shadow, and pressed against the wall.
Then the wall collapsed......
Mary opened her eyes and sighed.
She truly couldn’t envision this.
"Is your world’s aesthetic... normal?"
Even Axelle couldn’t help but ask, while Mianmu Zuoniao laughed heartily, clutching his stomach at some unknown thought.
No one wanted to know what was going through his mind.
"Ah, it’s not like that."
Although Duanmu Huai had forbidden her from revealing his appearance in that world, Hei Chuan Chi Yin could still explain.
"Mr. Duanmu in that world... doesn’t look like he does now..."
"Oh......"
Hearing this, Ann and Mugeng seemed to understand. They had seen Duanmu Huai’s avatar in the Magic Girl world and knew what it meant.
However, they quickly recalled that muscle-bound magic girl in lace-edged white stockings wedding dress... it was a nightmare.
Ann shuddered and hurriedly sealed that image once more deep in her memory.
As everyone continued to ask questions in curiosity, Duanmu Huai returned to his study with Ogis and began listening to Lumiaire’s report.
All materials for the Ether Synchronous Engine were prepared, and flushing operations against the Eye of Fear were close at hand.
Unexpectedly, Lumiaire brought Duanmu Huai unexpected news.
According to the reconnaissance fleet’s scouting of the Eye of Fear, they unexpectedly discovered another planet on its edge, not Cadia, but an unnamed planet.
Normally, this wouldn’t affect Duanmu Huai’s plans, but the issue was, based on a meeting of Lani, Medea, Ann, and Frieren, they determined the planet maintained a delicate balance between reality and Subspace. If Duanmu Huai destroyed the planet, the Eye of Fear would rapidly expand.
Similarly, if someone performed cult rituals on the planet, it could alter the Eye of Fear’s state.
"So, does the Tribunal have to occupy this planet?"
"Yes, but according to the reconnaissance fleet’s report, there’s already alien creatures inhabiting the planet."
"Oh? What alien species?"
"According to the investigation, they seem to be called the Titanium Clan...."
Upon hearing this, Duanmu Huai couldn’t hold back.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
"Very good."
Duanmu Huai’s expression turned serious.
"Call Aikute; I need to discuss the next step in the operations with her."
Then, he spoke.
