While Cyrus quickly started to fiddle with the Sacred Knowledge Sanctum, the five girls were now experiencing different things.
When Rita's vision suddenly turned dark, she quickly regained it again as if nothing had happened. However, she found herself looking at a middle-aged man with a gentle smile on his face as he was holding a white book in his hand.
Rita's eyes instantly widened when she saw the middle-aged man in plain attire. Although it had been so long since she saw this man, she would never forget his face, and she exclaimed, "Dad? But how is this possible?!"
"Hehe, do you think I can't complete your wish to become a Unique? This is a book that our ancestor leaves behind, and he instructs us to pass it on until the fifth generation when we can pass it to a girl of our family, and she will be able to become Unique!" Rita's father instantly exclaimed in joy as he put the book in dumbfounded Rita's hand, "Now, you can be a Unique and take us all out of this cursed place, my little girl. Everyone is counting on you!"
"Wait… no." Rita tried to retract her hand but suddenly stopped as she became confused, "What is happening?"
"What the matter, my little princess? Quickly open it and become a Unique!" An excited melodious voice rang this time from the side.
Rita turned her head as she was also familiar with this gentle voice, and her eyes turned teary, "M-mama? You're also here?"
"Hey, why are you crying? Why are you acting so silly today? I'm always here for you." Rita's mother was like her but more mature and gentler as she approached her and huge her worriedly.
Rita felt the warmth of her mother's embrace at this moment and instantly forgot all her worries and even that strange nagging feeling she had as if she had forgotten something very important.

Hilda, different from Rita, found herself standing on an open field, wearing silver armor. She was facing a tall, extremely handsome silver hair man.
While on the left side of this man was standing another gray hair man who appeared to be in his early fifties, and an extremely dignified aura surrounded him, and his gray eyes were unfathomed.
Beside him was her Uncle Grey standing there with a gratified smile.
On the right side stood a breathtaking figure with a face like a fairy, and she was smiling gently at her.
"Hilda, today you have proven yourself to be the true hire of the Silver Winged Clan, and you have earned your Grandfather's recognition. Come forth and kneel in front of your Grandfather, and he will bestow our Clan's ultimate secret sword technique to you, which you always dream of. You make me very proud!" The silver-haired man, who was none other than Hilda's father, stated solemnly.
However, Hilda's eyes behind her mask were still in a daze as they were affixed to her Grandfather standing at her father's left.
"I'm so happy for my little Angle that you were finally able to achieve your dream." The fairy-like woman who was Hilda's mother couldn't help but cry in happiness.
"Hehe, it's all because of my training!" Her uncle snickered like his usual self.
But the old man didn't say a single word as he stood there imposingly.
However, Hilda also didn't respond, so her Father's expression turned cold as he said loudly, "What are you doing?"
Hilda finally snapped out of her stupor before her eyes started to dart on the familiar faces one after another. Still, the more she looked at them, the colder her eyes got, and when they stopped at the Old Man, she was emitting killing intent outright.
"This stubborn old man will never acknowledge a woman sitting over his family throne. He never acknowledges me despite my trying for all these years and becoming what I am, all because I am a woman." Hilda's icy words contained boundless indignation as she looked at her Grandfather.
"You have always tried to suppress me by sending all those obstacles in my way. You even convince my father to leave me in the dimension wildness alone on the pretext of a test to rob me of my birthright to get the pure silver dimension bloodline.
"Now you're saying he's going to give me his previous secret technique, which he didn't even let you or Uncle learn?"
For the first time, Hilda sneered disdainfully, "Don't make me laugh. This illusion is not enough to shake my mind. Besides, I didn't need to prove anything to anyone anymore and only needed to follow him with my heart. He will give me anything, and he believed in me more than anyone ever had. He understands me and respects me because I'm a woman!"
The moment those words left her mouth, the image of her family instantly crumbled like a mirror. But a new image soon took its place…

Carla appeared sitting in a luxurious room. In front of her was another enthralling beauty that greatly resembled her, but her eyes were much shaper and shrewd, and she was looking at with teary eyes at this moment.
"Big Sister, I want to apologize to you today for everything I have ever done wrong to you. We can rule Victor City together, just as our late parents wanted.
"Not only that, but your fiancé abandoning you for me was just an act that was also orchestrated because I threatened him with your life. He loved you so much that he agreed to put on an act so no harm could ever befall you.
"However, my eyes have been opened, and I'm willing to make amends. Even if you want to kill me, I will happily die." She abruptly kneeled in front of dazzle Carla and smacked her head on the floor as she said in a pleading tone, "Please give me a chance to be your little sister that I never could be and make amends and pay you for all the kindness you have ever done to me!"
Carla's eyes turned misty as she started to get absorbed in memories… which she clearly shouldn't have!
