My incarnation is becoming a global calamity.

Chapter 50 Kindred Spirits? Friends?

Just like the streets not long ago, the Imperial Holy Land not far away also saw many more people wearing brown soft armor.

As dusk settled, they stood on both sides of the road, using movable wooden railings across the middle of the road to block passersby.

Anyone who walks through the streets of the holy site will be stopped and inspected.

Su Tu is currently located about 200 meters away from this group of people.

If he didn't have the modified Lonely Stone, he would have been discovered by this group by now.

"This location is secluded enough, with a solitary rock, so there shouldn't be any major problems."

Su Tu scanned his surroundings, mentally assessing the safety of his current location.

After confirming that there were no major problems, he set up a custodian in the game, allowing his avatar to stay there as long as there was no danger.

By the time all this was done, it was already getting dark.

Without much hesitation, Su Tu immediately transferred his consciousness to his main body, and his avatar also entered the game's entrusted management state...

When he opened his eyes again, the bright moonlight streamed in through the window and fell on the wooden floor beside the bed.

After he came to his senses, he reached for the table on the side, picked up the kettle, and poured himself a glass of water.

Just as he put down the water glass, there was a knock on the door.

"Knock knock knock—"

"Mr. Su Tu, Her Highness Eve has sent me with an item. Please open the door and take it."

The voice was a respectful female voice, which also gave Su Tu a strange sense of familiarity.

The sense of familiarity wasn't strong; it was like I'd heard that voice before, but it wasn't someone important.

Adding to what she had just said, Su Tu had a guess in his mind.

If there are no surprises, this person should be Eve's personal maid, responsible for the princess's daily life.

Only people close to important people can give him this inexplicable sense of familiarity.

Eve is the princess of the empire and is a very useful source of intelligence.

Correspondingly, Su Tu would also secretly remember her personal maid.

"I see."

After roughly confirming the visitor's identity, he did not hesitate, casually put on a coat, and walked towards the door.

I don't know why, but this autumn is colder than usual.

As Su Tu pondered whether to close the window before going to bed tonight, he had already reached the door.

When he opened the door, a face that he vaguely remembered came into view.

Just as he had guessed, this person was indeed the princess's personal maid, whose name seemed to be Lina.

However, the name is not important.

The important question is why Eve would send something over at this time.

Also, why didn't she come herself, but instead had the maid bring it?

But when he thought about how she was a princess and he was just the second son of a duke, he felt that this was quite normal.

Lost in thought, Lina took out the things Eve had given her.

It was a fan, a fan that Su Tu was very familiar with.

"Mr. Su Tu, this magical artifact was given to you by the princess at Mr. Bot's request, and she asked me to bring it to you."

As Lina explained, she handed over the fan, bowing slightly and presenting it with both hands.

Su Tu hesitated for a moment, but still took the fan, though more doubts arose in his heart.

That's right, this fan is the key magical artifact for completing the third stage of the mission—the Hurricane Epic.

Why would the princess send over this S-rank magical artifact?

Aren't you afraid that if this calamity obtains this S-rank magical artifact, it will threaten the lives of others?

These questions arose in his mind, but he had no clue how to solve them.

But soon, he remembered something more crucial.

He held the fan and pretended to examine it for a few moments before calmly putting it away and looking at the princess's personal maid with a composed gaze.

"Did Her Highness ask you to get it from Bot? Or did she personally hand it to you and ask you to bring it over?"

Su Tu spoke casually, as if he was simply curious about the matter and had no other purpose.

Of course, this is obviously impossible.

He asked this because he wanted to see if Eve was the Calamity mentioned in the mission.

Although the possibility is slim, solid evidence is still needed to completely rule it out.

Lina hesitated for a moment before gently lowering her head and replying in a respectful tone:

"Mr. Su Tu, this fan was personally given to me by Her Highness the Princess to ensure you have a suitable weapon for future battles."

After saying this, she bowed respectfully again.

"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."

Su Tu's mind was clearly on what she had just said, and he only nodded slightly when it came to saying goodbye.

Only after Lina's figure disappeared at the end of the corridor did he return to his room and close the door.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, he first checked the game's mission panel and found that the third stage mission was incomplete.

Combined with what Lina just said, the fan was given to her by the princess herself.

That means Eve is most likely not the calamity described in the mission description.

Of course, he couldn't completely rule her out.

He had previously speculated whether handing this over to a designated person meant simply touching the magical artifact, or whether some kind of binding ritual would be required.

If some kind of binding ritual is to be performed, then even if Eve has come into contact with this fan, the possibility that she is a calamity cannot be ruled out.

Conversely, if she is a calamity and the task is not marked as completed, it means that the fan needs to be bound to the designated person through some kind of ritual.

It can be said that Su Tu gained quite a bit from tonight's events.

While he was pondering this matter, the personal maid who had brought Su Tu the fan had already returned to Eve's room.

"Your Highness, the fan has been delivered to Mr. Su Tu, and I watched him accept it personally."

Lina, without a smile, bowed respectfully.

Eve, who was sitting on the sofa reading her subordinates' reports, silently put down the report after hearing these words.

A faint smile appeared on his previously solemn face.

"I understand. You can go and rest now."

When the door closed again, Eve picked up the report that was on the table once more.

However, when her gaze fell on the report, she couldn't bear to look at it at all.

After several attempts to force herself to read it, which ended in failure, she simply put the report back on the table and leaned back gently on the sofa.

"An S-rank Aishir exclusive magical artifact should be able to enhance Su Tu's own strength."

To be honest, even now, she still doesn't know what Su Tu's abilities as a calamity are.

Just how powerful is it in reality?

Now another calamity has appeared in the capital. In order to prevent Su Tu from being injured in the course of his mission.

That's why she chose to give the fan to Su Tu to protect him.

After all, there aren't many people like her who, despite being a calamity, don't commit evil deeds in the empire.

Su Tu was one of them, and also the one who was closest to her.

So she didn't want to lose this kindred spirit, or rather... this rare friend.
