Translator: Pluto Editor: Vermillion
While they chatted, both women were already more than halfway to the top of the tower If Lin Sanjiu looked down from where she stood, she could only see a ht froent] could only reach the handrails of the segment of staircase one story beneath and darkness sed anything beyond that Being close to 200sweaty when she looked doard, even though she couldn’t really see anything clearly She quickly looked away and wondered why she never realized in the past that she was a little acrophobic
She looked at the silhouette in front of her and then at the re upward The top floor was about ten stories above the it soon
"Ah…" Li Tao—or rather the woman who called herself Li Tao—suddenly raised her head and let out a long sigh She stroked her own hair and said, "Really" She turned to her side under the di her very slim side silhouette
"Is this what you call a ‘beast-like instinct’?" she cocked her head asking Lin Sanjiu could not see her expression in the darkness, she could only see the woh my performance if you can’t even understand that pocket dimension?"
"Who are you?" Lin Sanjiu said icily with a nored both Lin Sanjiu’s question and animosity Li Tao continued up the staircase, one step at a ti her own business She see a surprise attack fro point on the spiral staircase She lowered her head and looked down at Lin Sanjiu Her previous lively, lighthearted persona, which was akin to a sradually from her face just like melted snow It was replaced by the aura of a calm and mature woently, enunciating each word clearly
Lin Sanjiu knew that if she wanted to reach the top of the tower, she had no choice but to go through ‘Li Tao’ She took a deep breath and continued cli at htly surprised expression, Lin Sanjiu tightened her muscles and forced a relaxed smile, "If you also want to head to the top of the tohy don’t you co the way"
‘Li Tao’ was stunned for a moment and finally uttered softly, "Ballsy"
Lin Sanjiu smiled faintly, but she walked cautiously close to the wall When she saw ‘Li Tao’ slowly cliain, she explained slowly, "If I didn’t have my Diary Card, I wouldn’t be suspicious of you"
"Oh? YouDaoyi?"
"Yes" Lin Sanjiu replied as she narrowed her eyes and looked at the woman nearby, as still ahead of her The wouarded and Lin Sanjiu couldn’t really understand why "One of the features of my Diary Card is that it will address the people I know by their nah I know you, the Diary Card just referred to you as ‘super-cute girl’
If it was once or twice, I would have accepted that it is due to the crappy personality of the card However, when I was bathing, I already had a very slight suspicion about it because my Diary Card did not refer to you as ‘Li Tao’ even once"
"But seriously, your card is a little…"
"Unreliable, right?" Lin Sanjiu finished her sentence, "Since I’ve never seen it do that, I really couldn’t be sure But when you said, ‘If I entered that pocket dimension’, I suddenly realized that there was a problem… Why weren’t you sucked into the pocket dimension when you entered the black tower?" Lin Sanjiu asked rhetorically while she stared at Li Tao’s back Anyone else would think that once they broke out of the pocket dimension, the next person who entered the toould not face the same problem However, Lin Sanjiu remembered a small detail She remembered the words "No 72 Pocket Dimension Quest" That is to say, every person that entered that pocket dimension should confront a different situation Even if the fairytale scenario had been solved, the pocket dimension still existed and Li Tao should have been sucked into a different scenario But that didn’t happen Fro had happened to her That would only mean that Li Tao had already escaped that pocket dihed but seemed unaffected "I was a little perplexed when I found out that your experiences in that pocket dirossed with the three timelines, I missed this detail"
Lin Sanjiu didn’t say a word
That wasn’t the only reason When she looked into Bluebeard’s rooe, the aura of the person in the illusion was closer the latter’s current persona than her previous pretense
