My Stubborn Soul Card Follower-Chapter 484 - 397: Alice Across Two Worlds

[Ding! Your Soul Card has gained a new form: Candlelight Illusion·Finist]

[Ding! Your Soul Card has gained a new form: Earth Knight·Finist]

[Ding! You have obtained a Spell Card: Shadow of the Secret Peeping Man]

[Ding! You have obtained a new Follower: Candlelight Illusion·Maiden Vivian]

...

The next day, after waking up from his sleep, Shen Sui looked at the messages flashing on the dueling device. He gazed at these sudden Life Cards and fell into contemplation.

Then he immediately checked the duel device’s history and fell into a longer silence.

No, I just took a nap, what exactly happened?

How did Alice suddenly pop up a new form with Candlelight Illusion?

And what is Maiden Vivian? How did Vivian come out?

Oh...it’s Vivian’s first Candlelight Illusion left in the crafting notes, that is her maiden form.

Shen Sui roughly read through what Alice had encountered last night.

Is World No. 8 about to be destroyed? Even the Secret Peeping Man disguised as Alice has fallen? Why didn’t Alice tell me?

Oh...she was obsessed with fishing before, her mind was full of fishing.

As he looked further, Shen Sui felt some guilt.

He had been so focused on real-world competitions and the treasure boxes in Bambul City that he didn’t pay any attention to Alice’s psychological state. In contrast, Vivian, merely through the feedback of a tool, noticed Alice’s abnormality and provided timely help through her Candlelight Illusion left in the notes.

But that’s Vivian, always watching over you from unexpected places and offering help and care the moment you have a problem.

This is also why players love the Twilight Saintess.

[Alice woke from the dream, her mind still muddled, as if everything from last night was just an illusion.]

["Hey hey!" Suddenly, a girl’s phantom appeared beside her, "We meet again!"]

[Alice was startled by the girl in front of her, and with a clearer look, she realized it was Maiden Vivian from last night’s dream: "Did you really come to the real world?"]

[Maiden Vivian rolled her eyes and said, "Come on, I’m attached to the notebook you have with you, right?"]

["Oh, right," Alice patted her head.]

[Then she expressed her puzzlement about Maiden Vivian being able to appear again.]

["I just wasn’t activated before," Maiden Vivian said with a smile, "Once I’m activated, I can generate a bit of self-moving energy, though the annoying main body took back all the bestowed powers so I can’t move for long without going back to recharge, but she can’t stop me from appearing!"]

[After saying that, she said excitedly, "Quickly! Tell me! Where is Claude?!"]

[As soon as she finished speaking, an unfriendly gaze appeared behind her.]

[Maiden Vivian immediately became alert and turned around, taking a defensive stance.]

[Isabella looked at the phantom of the girl in front of her, her brows furrowed.]

[Vivian? But why does she look like this?]

["Who are you?" Maiden Vivian did not recognize Isabella.]

Shen Sui understood upon seeing this; his strategy for the Blood Race storyline was after Vivian graduated, so it was normal for Maiden Vivian not to recognize Isabella now.

[Isabella immediately grasped the general idea: "Hello, you can call me Isabella..."]

[Maiden Vivian quickly assessed Isabella with her gaze.]

[Beautiful.]

[Big chest.]

[Judgment: Claude’s type.]

No! Why are you, like Alice, identifying my type based on just these two points?

Shen Sui almost spat out blood.

This is really so wrong! When I was trying to increase my favorability with Isabella, she was flat-chested!

["If you’re looking for Claude..." Isabella perceived Maiden Vivian’s thoughts from her actions and began to speak, "He’s in a somewhat special situation now."]

["Special?" Maiden Vivian couldn’t understand at all.]

At this time, Vivian’s strength was not enough to detect the anomaly on Claude, so naturally, she wouldn’t know that the Claude on the Dawn Continent was just a projection created by Shen Sui.

[Alice begins to call you.]

[She conveys the good news that she found Vivian’s clues.]

Shen Sui smiled, thinking that in this case, he had to appear.

But he had planned to appear anyway.

[You appeared.]

["Claude!" Maiden Vivian rushed into your arms. Although her chest was getting pressed and making it hard to breathe, she still tried her best to lay her head on your chest, "Long time no see!"]

Shen Sui calculated the time; at this period, Vivian was just studying at Roland Magic Academy. While he was leveling outside, during that time he and Vivian were apart. From the later contents of the diary that Vivian used to confess to him and took him to see, it showed that during her academy days, Vivian’s longing for Claude deepened as the time apart grew longer, almost turning into something tangible.

[You gently patted Maiden Vivian in your embrace.]

[Maiden Vivian looked very happy.]

Shen Sui was also pleased.

In the game, when he reunited with Vivian, he consoled Vivian just like this.

And to experience such a scene again, and to feel sure that it was real, the feeling in his heart was completely different.

Vivian had always been smart, and the maiden form she left behind was naturally the same.
