"The Philosopher's Stone? What's that?" Hikaru asked quietly, but the system gave him no answer.
He decided to ask Rika but before he could speak, Rika said: [Don't ask me, I don't know what it is either.]
Hearing that, Hikaru sighed, and reread the System announcement. This time, the system said that he could destroy or use it.
That means he can use the "Philosopher's Stone", and if he uses it, Delmor will lose the ability to continue as a protagonist.
'Perhaps... because the plots overlaps, Delmor's plot also overlaps with Laylah's plot.'
'But if so, how does Delmor get this stone?'
'If Laylah reaches this place before Delmor, how will he get this stone?'
'Does this stone have no effect on Laylah?'
Hikaru tried to use his meager intelligence to try to understand this situation.
Why should he seek answers?
Because he probably couldn't use the 'Philosopher's Stone'. That's right, Hikaru knows that he's just a villain, and the protagonist's 'Philosopher's Stone' was a Destiny Item.
A villain cannot use the protagonist's Destiny Item.
Although the system message says that he can use the stone, that does not mean that the stone is suitable for him.
Or to be more precise, Hikau didn't know if the stone was safe for him to use.
He suddenly glanced at Laylah, then frowned.
Laylah had calmed down now, she held the two dolls and the picture up, and gave them to Hikaru while saying: "keep them for me."
"Oi! I am not your warehouse."
"Don't you want to destroy this place?"
"Haiz, okay." Hikaru felt that his super powers were being abused by Laylah.
After placing the items in Panara's space, Hikaru asked, "what is this place?"
"I don't know." Laylah shook her head: "However, I can guarantee this is Alissa's workplace."
Laylah finished speaking then glanced at Hikaru as if she was looking for some information from him.
"Why are you looking at me?"
"Do you know where Alissa is?" Layla asked. She once told herself that she would act like a normal girl.
However, if there was anything related to Alissa, she couldn't help it.
Hikaru shrugged, his face showing a puzzled smile: "I don't know, I don't even know who she is, how can I know where she is?"
"So... why did you confidently tell me that you could help me find Alissa?" Laylah frowned.
Hikaru shook his head and said, "If you doubt me, we can end our cooperation right here."
"Laylah... you've waited so many years, it's okay to wait a little longer. Why are you in such a hurry?"
Layla was startled when she heard that, then she bowed her head and said, "Sorry, I lost control a bit."
"I understand what you've been through." Hikaru smiled and patted her shoulder: "That's why, you should listen to what I say, it will definitely benefit you."
Laylah looked Hikaru straight in the eye, and found no trace of lies. Hikaru looked so confident that Laylah found it difficult to understand.
However, she knew Hikaru had reason to be confident.
[Master, what are you doing?] Rika's voice echoed in his head.
"Of course I'm helping Laylah get through this Event."
[Heh?! I thought you didn't want to help her. You were planning to run away just now, right?]
ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm "Ack! Rika, there are times when we make the wrong decisions, but we still have a chance to change, right?"
[Alright! I get it, I was just joking. However... you don't know anything about Laylah, how can you be confident that you can help her find Alissa?]
"Hahaha... Rika, did you forget there is a card in the system store that can help me do that?"
[You mean...]
"That's right. Although we may not know the plot of the novel in which Laylah is the main character. However, we can learn a few important plots."
[But this world is a chaotic world, you might know the plot in the novels but that doesn't mean you know the future.]
"Of course I understand that. However, I need more information, since I am not as smart and sharp as Laylah anyway."
"But at least, I can use 'god vision' to survive in this world."
"Laylah doubted me... no, she probably confirmed that what she thought when I first met her was true, so I don't need to hide it anymore."
[You mean...]
Hikaru didn't answer Rika, he looked at Laylah and said: "Even though I don't know where Alissa is right now, it doesn't mean that in the future, I won't know it."
"Laylah... if you already know then I don't need to hide it, your guesses are correct."
Laylah didn't feel elated or triumphant when she heard this. On the contrary, she frowned and smiled: "Oh! So... why are you confirming this?"
"I have always felt that you are always denying my speculations, and that you are trying to stay away from me. So... why are you saying this now?"
Hikaru shrugged his shoulders and said, "Because we will cooperate together and this will change your destiny."
"Hm? What do you mean?"
"My intention is very clear. Laylah, it is like you speculated, this world is a world created by other people, and you are just a character created by someone else's pen."
Even though Laylah thought about it, when she heard Hikaru confirm it again, she still felt extremely surprised and she couldn't believe it.
At this moment, Laylah felt suspicious again. That's right, if Hikaru continued to hide or avoid this matter, she would feel that her thinking was correct.
However, if Hikaru confirmed this to be true, then Laylah felt doubtful.
Hikaru met Laylah's gaze, and he immediately realized she was suspicious of him.
Humans are strange animals. In his previous life, when Hikaru was on Earth, he was a salesman.
He could be described as a mediocre man with no talent whatsoever. However, in his long career, he seems to know the psychology of investors and buyers very well.
Usually, when investors suspect something, and you try to hide it or avoid it, they will be more suspicious and more convinced that their thinking is correct.
However, if you immediately affirm that their thinking is correct, then they will feel that you are lying. And of course, they will think the opposite and smash the hypothesis that they doubted.
That is the psychological effect of "reverse trust".
This psychological effect is applied a lot in advertising campaigns or campaigns against other bad rumors.
Of course, Hikaru was also aware of this psychological effect. He also worked for someone who knew this 'reverse trust effect' very well.
That person once told him: "If the other party comes up with a theory about you, but you confirm the opponent's hypothesis with great confidence, the other person will feel doubtful about the hypothesis that the other party is making."
"This is the weakness of the human psyche. For example, I asked you if you slept with my wife?"
"If you constantly rebut or hide it, you will make me feel more suspicious of you."
"However, if you immediately assert with great confidence. Even then, you gave evidence that you once slept with my wife, do you know how I would feel then?"
"I would feel extremely angry. But I will just think that you are teasing me."
"Of course, this psychological effect only applies to the masses or intelligent people."
"You cannot apply this effect on fools, nor can you apply it to the opponent to deny their speculation."
"You must use this method to make them think what you want."
Hikaru recalled those words, smiled and said, "Hm? Now you are doubting your conjecture even though I have confirmed it to be true?"
Laylah frowned, "That's right. Because you're so confident, it makes me feel a little suspicious."
Then, she also suddenly smiled: "So... are you saying this all of a sudden because you want to earn my trust?"
Hearing that, Hikaru sighed, "Haizz, that's right. I won't hide it from you, anyway, we will work together, this information is the only gift that can give you peace of mind."
"I can only say that your thinking is correct. As for any other information..." Hikaru suddenly put his index finger in the middle of his mouth and said with a smile, "I can't talk about it. You can understand that... there are existences that control this world. If I speak, they will hear and..."
Hikaru shrugged, and at this moment, Laylah felt a little confident.
"So... you know me well?"
Hikaru nodded, then shook his head again: "Actually, I only know some basic information. I only know that you and I will be enemies, you will kill me when the end of the world comes."
"That's why I've always wanted to avoid you, or even avoid contact with you."
"Hm?! Why should I kill you?" Laylah asked strangely, she didn't want to think about what Hikaru just said with her reasoning ability right now.
She felt that the unknown and the mysteries of Hikaru were interesting things.
If we knew everything in advance, this world would be like a boring toy box.
Hikaru began to explain, "In any novel there are two types of characters, the protagonist and the villain."
"You are the main character, I am the villain. We are on opposite sides of this world."
"Your destiny is to destroy me, my destiny is to be killed by you."
Laylah suddenly felt that this information was extremely reliable. It logically explained why Hikaru avoided her all the time.
"Wait! But I have no intention of killing you, even though we are working together. With this haven't I gone against our fate?" Layla laughed.
"That's right. That's also why I agreed to tell you the truth."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
