Chapter 444: Ill Show You The Truth

"Barging into Pluto with our strength and surviving?" Blue Flash sneered. "We can instead go into a lost dungeon and bet our odds in escaping."

Varian's lips twitched. "I don't want to go there again."

"What?" Blue Flash knit her brows in confusion.

"Anyways," Varian waved his hand and said. "With our strength, it's suicide. So, we need some help."

"I can't trust anyone now." Enigma declared in an indifferent voice, but from the way she clenched her fists behind her back, it was crystal clear that she was feeling very uncomfortable.

"A few people, we can try, but they're all either weak or in the middle of something." Thinking of Seth, she finally added.

Blue Flash rubbed her forehead and sighed. "I have people we can trust, but they're too weak to help. I mean, we need at least a peak level 9 to infiltrate Pluto and that too is a big if!"

Her voice turned more and more desolate. "We'll be exposed if we approach them and it's a fucking planet we're going to face."

Varian rolled his eyes. "Why the hell are you guys so hopeless?"

"..."

"..."

Enigma and Blue Flash glared at Varian.

How the hell are you managing to smile in this situation? The plan to win the perception battle is clearly not possible. What's there to smile?

"I am inviting a peak level 9 powerhouse," Varian said and tapped his comm.

"P-Peak level 9?" Blue Flash muttered and when it finally hit her, she exclaimed. "Who?!"

Enigma on the side was also confused. Sia kept track of Varian's tracks since the beginning. And recently, she too was involved with him in the mission. So, she knew his contacts.

The awakeners at peak level 9 Varian knew was only one person.

Evander.

Enigma suddenly clenched her fists and closed her eyes. Her anger surged again, threatening to break out.

The destruction of shadow guardians flashed in front of her eyes. Her aura turned chaotic and she was filled with rage and grief.

'Kill!'

'Kill the Xanders!'

'Don't hesitate!'

Her thoughts turn more and more violent and as she was about to give in, Varian's voice snapped her out.

"Enigma, you alright?" Varian asked with a concerned face.

Enigma opened her eyes and nodded stiffly. "Y-Yeah."

"Don't worry too much. This will work out." Varian gave an encouraging smile. "And in the worst case it doesn't, we can escape."

"But E...Evander can't help you." Enigma said in a confused tone.

After Bali's mysterious disappearance, Evander got extremely Busy.

He was so busy that his fan club started rumors that he trained his two eyes to work separately to improve his efficiency.

Of course, there were also rumors that he wanted a wife to help him out...which was the actual agenda of his Fanclub.

"It's not him." Varian shrugged.

"Eh?" Enigma's lips parted in confusion. Peak level 9s were super rare and super busy.

How could you just ask them for help?

As she was thinking, Varian's attire suddenly changed. A mask hid his face and his clothes changed into snow-white.

A throne that Enigma had previously seen him sit on appeared. It was the dreamer's throne.

"What are you doing?" Blue Flash asked in confusion.

"Cover your face," Varian said.

Even though she didn't get the answer, Blue Flash covered her face.

And Varian sat on the throne.

Suddenly, his temperament completely changed.

From the easy-going, optimistic yet rational young man to a very assertive and regal man.

Enigma's eyes narrowed as she looked at Varian. It was her first time seeing him like this.

She could feel his difference even from the videos, but seeing it in person was something entirely different.

Before, Varian only looked like a competent leader.? Now he looked like the leader of leaders. A king of kings. As if he was the...

'Emperor.'

That word popped up in her mind as if it was natural.

Enigma couldn't continue staring at him and averted her gaze. Even though he was far weaker than her right now, he gave off a sense of mystery and more importantly...danger.

How could he pose a threat to her? Enigma didn't know why she felt that way, but her keen senses told her that he was hiding a monstrous secret that was capable of killing her and everyone in the solar system.

"Dreamer?" A surprised voice sounded, snapping Enigma out of her thoughts again.

A man with red hair and a sturdy build appeared in a hologram.

His gaze inadvertently swept through the interior and his eyes widened.

"Blue Flash? ...Enigma?!" He exclaimed and stepped forward, his hologram quickly reaching Enigma.

Enigma and Blue Flash were equally surprised. They didn't expect the missing Bali to appear.

Bali was also surprised, for a different reason. He turned to Varian and gritted his teeth. "Dreamer, please give me an explanation."

Enigma and Blue Flash were shocked, to say the least.

From his reaction, Bali was aware of what was happening. Yet, instead of lashing out, he was willing to hear what Dreamer got to say.

Varian said in a confident tone. "I know everyone thinks she's a threat and wants her to die, but the truth is that she can't contact anyone outside the solar system. Not just her, no one can."

"What the hell?" Bali was taken aback first, but he shook his head. "Then what about the signals our scientists were sending and receiving so far? If what you said was really true, they should've already known."

Varian shrugged. "They're being fooled. Abyssals have an arrangement to lock down Solar System's communication within itself. We can't contact outsiders and they can't contact us.

Or do you think it makes sense that since 200 years, we can't even find traces of any lifeform other than abyssals and magic beasts?"

Bali went silent. He wasn't an expert in the subject. So, he didn't know if the scientists were being decieved or he was being decieved.

"They're not after her, they're after us. She's just in the way." Varian said with a grave expression.

"I know you don't trust me, so come with me to Pluto.. I'll show you the truth."
