“Maybe it’s just the three of us.”

Asho tilted his head. “But no matter what, in this virtual realm full of hidden dangers and opportunities, the more teammates you can trust, the better.”

“I don’t trust her—”

“You didn’t trust me at first either.”

“How can she compare to you?”

Asho looked at her in surprise, but Sonia turned her head to look at Diya, muttered a few words, and then sighed. “I understand. Indeed, the battle intensity on the Time Continent far exceeds that of the Sea of Knowledge. Two people can no longer guarantee absolute safety, so three people are more suitable…”

The red-haired Sword Girl glanced at Asho, poked his chest with her finger, and said resentfully, “But don’t forget your promise. As long as I’m stronger than her—”

“Then you are the most important agent in my heart!” Asho, who only valued strength, said without hesitation.

“Hmph.” Sonia was still a bit sulky, but when she turned to Diya, she suddenly put on a bright, business-like smile. “Hello.”

Asho also introduced, “Witch, she has always been my teammate, Sword Girl. Sword Girl, she is the new teammate, Witch. From now on, we are comrades-in-arms who will share weal and woe, so get along well.”

While Asho and Sonia were whispering, Diya took the opportunity to assess her own situation.

It wasn’t a dream or an illusion. Without opening the Gate of Truth, she was really brought into the virtual realm by the Observer’s wonderful ability, and appeared in the same place as the Observer.

Unlike Sonia, who was just a house cat, Diya was a legitimate wildcat sorcerer. She traveled thousands of miles alone in the Sea of Knowledge, was bitten by sea monsters, drowned in the sea, and suffered the hardships of a lone wolf, which honed her tough mentality.

Therefore, she almost instantly judged the great value of the ability to “team up.” The Observer had almost subverted the cultivation rules of the sorcerer world, reducing the difficulty of exploring the virtual realm from an epic story level to a fairy tale level (she soon realized that the difficulty could be further reduced).

If it could be exchanged, Diya believed that many legendary sorcerers would be willing to sacrifice their entire sorcery power and even their faction status to obtain the ability to team up in the virtual realm.

No wonder the Observer always concealed his true identity with mist and used a code name. He must know the value of this ability and be afraid of being found by the prophecy faction!

Diya had originally harbored suspicion and hostility towards the Observer, but at this moment, she had changed her attitude: she must hold onto the Observer’s thigh and then find a way to uncover the Observer’s secrets!

Being able to see her own thought process, track down little Lis in the Bronze Dragon Trial, and gather teammates in the virtual realm… man, you have caught the attention of this princess!

At this moment, Diya also saw some clues—the Observer seemed to have not told Sword Girl about himself, so Sword Girl had some opinions about her arrival.

Hmm… this princess is not good at socializing, so this situation needs to be handled by someone else…

Should I switch to little Lis? But Lis needs to manage her main body, and she’s too young…

Among my sisters, the most knowledgeable adult woman is…

She adjusted her decorative silver-rimmed glasses and caught a glimpse of her reflection.

“Mask” Artisan, activate!

Personality Split – Mask Covering – Mode: White Queen!

When Diya opened her eyes, her clothes had turned into a shiny, off-the-shoulder white dress, with white stockings on her legs, and her hair had turned snow-white. The dark red lipstick added a mature charm.

Asho and Sonia, who had never seen anything like this, were slightly stunned—so you can change your appearance directly in the virtual realm?

And Asho had a question. The witch in the character drawing didn’t wear glasses, and the witch who visited him before didn’t wear glasses either, so why did she wear glasses when she entered the virtual realm?

But he didn’t plan to meddle in other people’s business, after all, the glasses were a turn-off for him.

Speaking of which, Asho had encountered three near-death moments. The first time was when Jielade almost killed him, the second time was when Wakas almost took him with him in the Blood Moon Trial, and the third time was when Furia found a pair of glasses in the drawer, and she almost put them on.

The third time was the most dangerous.

“Hello, I’m the Witch.” Diya reached out to shake hands with Sonia. “Nice to meet you.”

“Please take care of me and the Observer in the future.”

This little trumpet… the red-haired Sword Girl was immediately annoyed.

In an instant, Sonia recalled all the family ethics, noble intrigue dramas she had seen, and racked her brains to come up with a brilliant retort.

However, at that moment, Asho called out to them, “Don’t just stand there, let’s talk more in the car.”

The two looked over and found that Asho had somehow brought a convertible sports car, sitting comfortably and stretching.

Asho was actually a bit surprised as to why it was a convertible, but upon careful thought, he understood—there was no rain on the Time Continent, at least not “downward” rain. The car roof was useless except for blocking the view, so it might as well be removed.

Of course, this might also be a kind of interpretation of “luxury edition.”

Sonia was not surprised by this, after all, she and Asho had once sailed the Sea of Knowledge. Diya’s eyes sparkled, and she clapped her hands, looking at Asho with admiration. “Observer, you are amazing. Perhaps only we can explore the virtual realm in a car on the entire Time Continent, right?”

“It’s not that amazing.” Asho modestly said, “It’s all thanks to everyone’s good support.”This woman… Sonia gritted her teeth in frustration. Ever since the Watcher barged into her life, she had been speeding down the path of a ‘swordsmanship prodigy.’ It had been many days since she last attended a ball or tea party. Usually, others fawned over her more than she complimented them. Over time, she naturally neglected practicing her conversational tactics.

Saying something in praise of the Watcher was a small effort that cost nothing, yet it could significantly boost the Watcher’s favorability towards her—a highly cost-effective interpersonal communication trick. The old Sonia would have definitely caught on, but now Diya had beaten her to the punch!

This witch… It seems she’s the same type of Artificer as me!

Then both women turned to look at the passenger seat next to Asho and reached out for it at the same time!

In truth, sitting in the passenger seat proved nothing, but sometimes losing face meant losing everything. When it was time to compete, one had to fight for every inch; even if you couldn’t win, you had to make your stance clear. Otherwise, one step back meant retreating at every step!

“Witch, do you want to sit in the front?” Sonia asked with a radiant smile.

“Yes, the view is better from the front,” Diya blinked.

“But today is my first time exploring the Time Continent, how about letting me sightsee properly first?”

“This…”

“Do you both want to sit in the front? Then go ahead.”

Asho flipped over to the back seat: “It just so happens I don’t want to squeeze in with others.”

Sonia: “……”

Diya: “……”
