"Aren't we buddies?"

Hearing Slayer's fawning voice, Zaira cringed in response. She glared at Slayer, "Don't even think about it."

"I'll create a new genre for you." Slayer proposed, "Don't you understand that it is because of me that there exists a monetary Genre in the System World now?"

'Slayer is behind the creation of the Monetary Genre?' Compass Carburettor was surprised to hear that, feeling like there was something he was missing from the grand picture, 'I guess Arnark wasn't entirely truthful about everything.'

Immediately after, he refrained from using his power of Lore in the present scenario. The sentence he declared using the power of Lore was actually about Arnark. It was to revive him.

And, it was Arnark that had conveyed the statement to him, when he communicated with the other party in Conjurer's world. Upon hearing Slayer's words, he felt some suspicion regarding everything Arnark told him.

Therefore, he no longer intended to use the Lore that Arnark had given him. But strangely, the moment his thoughts regarding Arnark changed, Compass Carburettor noticed Slayer's eyes shift towards him for a moment before reverting to stare at Zaira.

'What the heck was that?' Compass Carburettor was alarmed, feeling a strange sense of fear, similar to what he felt when he was a System Slayer and understood the trap set by Systems there.

"Did something happen to you?" Mascot asked in concern upon sensing Compass Carburettor's presence fluctuate rapidly, fading in and out as if his existence itself was in a state of crisis.

"I…don't know." He said, noticing his senses grow sharp all of a sudden as he was able to sense that even Domino Plottopia, the Relic and Gahrat were feeling a strange sense of unease, and even mild…fear.

[Compass!]

Suddenly, Hazen's shout resounded in his mind as instantly, Compass Carburettor was alarmed, turning around as he stared at his daughter and clenched his hand into a fist, reclaiming the Anthozoa that he had given to her.

Immediately after, he experienced a sharp migraine, causing him to collapse to the ground. At the sight, the attention of the other three Genre Representatives too fell on Compass Carburettor, alarmed at the changes.

"Now!"

Zaira shouted at this moment as instantly, Conjurer exploded with all his power, instantly conjuring a spatial ability that wrapped around Stencil and Gehera, teleporting the two women to his side.

"No!" Compass Carburettor was alarmed as he glared at Conjurer, unleashing System Punishment at the other party to momentarily stun him.

Just based on Zaira's shout earlier, it was apparent that everything she said and did until now was just to veil her true intentions. She had been aiming for Stencil and Gehera from the start, only that she had yet to verify their value before.

That was why she created a world to use the Vastras to glean insight into their powers, to judge whether whatever Conjurer had told her was the truth or not. But, before she could finish her investigation, Compass Carburettor arrived at the scene and put a stop to things.

One thing after another piled up over that, resulting in the current scenario. But, her goal was still the same, which was why she was subtly scanning Stencil and Gehera.

As to how she did that?

Grade 4 System—Regression (Level 341)!

Currently, Regression was still actively working on influencing the timeline of this universe. And by channelling her power through Regression, using the same makeup as its energy, Zaira was actively investigating the power of the two ladies, masking her attempts.

And she concluded that they were indeed the most valuable here.

Starting from Gehera; the lady had been stealing Slayer's power for a year already, storing everything in her Ruin of Amagoth. At present, each stolen power of Slayer existed as a Magic Beast in the Ruin of Amagoth.

Gehera was only able to unleash the powers of the Magic Beasts one after another. But in Zaira's hands, she would be able to combine the powers of all the Magic Beasts and derive Slayer's current powers.

It meant gaining whatever Slayer had obtained recently, allowing her to create a batch of Systems with physical bodies, allowing the Systems to expand their control and not be limited by the quality of Hosts alone.

Therefore, Gehera was a valuable asset through which Zaira could cost-effectively gain Slayer's powers.

The second was Stencil that could become a Coordinate as and when she pleased. When she wasn't a Coordinate, she was just a human. And currently, she controlled three Systems and could assume their forms whenever she pleased.

Best of all, even after turning into a System, she could exist in reality. This was pushing the limits of the concept of Systems itself. And if Zaira were to devour her power, it would allow her to create complex Systems with more than one Core Skill.

It would turn the power growth of the Systems complex, and once they reach Grade 2, they would become many times stronger than other Grade 2 Systems. After all, from their moment as Hatchling Systems, Zaira could form them with Core Skills that harmonise with each other well.

This way, they'll grow overpowered even when compared to their fellow Systems.

Therefore, getting her hands on Stencil and Gehera would solve all her problems.

But, she couldn't take action on her own. After all, the four Genre Representatives were guarded against her and the Systems behind her. So, the moment her side attempted anything, the Genre Representatives would counter it immediately.

But, none of the Genre Representatives was focusing on Conjurer. After all, he was just too weak in their eyes. To a certain extent, Compass Carburettor himself was able to fight Conjurer.

And before the Genre Representatives, Compass Carburettor's strength was nothing. So, it placed Conjurer in a blind spot.

Until now, only the Main Character—Domino Plottopia—was keeping an eye on Conjurer. And the moment they all felt a severe migraine, none was paying any attention to his actions, allowing him to steal the two women.

"Haha, great!" Zaira laughed as all the Grade 3 Systems formed a front circle to defend against the furious attacks of the Genre Representatives, staring at Conjurer as she extended her hand, "Now, give them to me."

"Sure…" Conjurer said as he closed in on Zaira, extending the two women captive in his chains. But just as Zaira's smile widened in victory, he stopped, retracting the two as suddenly, a strange energy burst out of his body, alarming Zaira who teleported away in response.

"Gahhh!!!" Compass Carburettor, Gahrat, and Domino Plottopia screamed in horror while the Relic let out a sonorous sound, rattled as the entirety of Mental Energy stored in their body riled up, acting against their will.

His eyes widened in horror as Compass Carburettor stared at the figure of Slayer that broke into a content smile, "You bastard…"

"Arnark!"
