Unlike the first two, this one was the most terrifying aspect of them all.
After all, what was not frightening about being put in an illusion that seemed no different from reality at all? Nothing could ever be as frightening as that.
According to the rumors, False Reality put you in an illusion that was so out of this world, you could not tell if it was an illusion or reality at all. Regardless of god or mortal.
It was said that the feeling of touch, love, death, emotions, pain, taste and the world itself were all real. You could not tell them apart from reality at all. But an illusion was an illusion afterall, at the end of the day, the body was fine right?
Wrong.
The most terrifying aspect of False Reality was that it altered your brain and entire biological system to take everything happening to you as reality, and respond likewise. If you die in False Reality, you die in real life.
If you hand was cut off from False Reality, you will lose all senses with it in Reality, permanently at that. Just this alone terrified everyone, even the two Pantheons.
After all, the victims included six greater demon kings, two noble demon kings and one qausi-royal demon king. Meaning that, this False Reality could affect even Deity Lords as well.
"The rumors spread that far out?" Rouli, who was now a middle-aged demon stared at the report his aide had brought over with a frown. But a moment later, it changed to a calm gaze.
"This is not enough to disrupt the peace of the World Forest. Continue to spread the rumors, but make sure to exaggerate them the further they go. Like, 'False Reality attacks anyone at sight'.
"Or, 'False Reality is a powerful weapon of the demons'. I believe in your tongue, make things look quite realistic and believable for me." He ordered without even looking back at the demon behind him.
"Yes, sir." The demon did not mind nor say anything, she instead unfurled a pair of black, starless wings and just flew off. The cloak that hid her face flapped along the wind, revealing a light sneer under the night sky.
'Everything is according to the Night... perhaps Day as well. Whatever. As long as the future changes.' She chanted within her thoughts, before blitzing off into the distance.
Demon king Rouli was not the only one who had his plans in action. Demon king Rongxi, sat within his room, a couple of succubi serving him tea and giving him a delightful feast for his eyes.
Behind him, a Fallen Angel-like beauty knelt down and awaited his orders. Demon King Rongxi did not say anything for quite a long time, instead, he continued to feast on his dinner in silence.
After a while, he drank his wine, cleaned his mouth with a napkin, and let out a delicate sigh. His actions were neat and flawless, like a noble borne. He then waved his hand and said, "Leave."
"Yes sir." The servants bowed their heads and left. All of them left, leaving only the fallen angel and demon king Rongxi alone. Everyone knew that the relationship between these two was ambiguous.
And ambiguous it was.
"This act is hurting my pride more and more." The fallen angel stood up and brushed her clothes, despite them not being dirty. Her tone was still respectful and toneless.
"I'm sorry milady, but this is the command from above. I am just a noble demon king like you, how can I go against the young Lady's orders?" Rongxi became idle and carefree as he responded back to her.
He then paused and added, "Plus, it's worse for me as well. I have to act so well mannered and good nurtured, such a pain in the ass. I was never born for this."
A proud noble fallen angel was acting as a servant, while an idle noble demon king was acting noble and well mannered. These was truly a duo with an ambiguous relationship.
And for the person who can command these two, their strength had to either be that of a Ruler, or their charisma was just above the charts.
"Forget it, let's just keep up with the mission. But I'm quite disappointed, the target did not make a move, so I can't properly judge his strength... I wonder how strong he is now compared to later." The fallen angel sulked as she went to the table to eat as well.
"Yeah, but if I'm correct, 'False Reality' might be his doing. If that were true, the lady might have a bit of trouble then, if she doesn't go all out." Rongxi added as he watched the fallen angel eat.
"Forget it, let's just do our mission." The fallen angel waved him off as she was eating, and hated talking in between. She then paused and said, "For the Night."

"For the Night." Rongxi also chanted before closing his eyes and resting. Everything they did, was all for a single being. A single concept. A single aspect.
Meanwhile, on demon king Rouli's side. The aide of Rouli sat above the palace of Rouli and read the letter that was in her hands. To be precise, it was two letters, one black and one white.
The Black envelope was from the higher ups, of course she could guess what the contents were. They were probably the same thing from her current 'mother' asking how she was doing and whatnot.
But the white letter was different. She completely had no idea what the contents were at all. She retreated all the way to the top of the building just to read the letter.
The letter read as such;
// Hi, just as how I am unaware of your name nor origins, I hope you don't mind me keeping mine, right? After all, everything must have a respectable other half, or equilibrium, or whatnot. Anyway, I'd like to thank you for the heads up that you have given us the past year.
I wanted to thank you earlier, unfortunately, this is how long it took my sources to contact you. I hope you understand. As a sign of my sincere gratitude, I hope you are satisfied with this little gift of ours. Again, thank you. //
After reading the final line, three blue orbs suddenly flew out of the letter. Her reactions were quite fast as she immediately grabbed them and threw them into her personal storage ring in less than but a microsecond!!!
The pure divine power that fletted out of them for that one moment, was enough to give people the wrong impression. It was as comparable as the divine power of peak lesser deity.
"This..." The young lady gazed towards the east as a smile crept up on her face. 'This is all for the Night, but I wonder when our Day will arrive. Perhaps now, soon or never... And you are still as hopeless as ever, aren't you?'
She thought to herself.

Meanwhile, at the Eastern hemisphere~
Enigma who sat at the edge of a tall mountain suddenly gazsd up and smiled. 'I guess she has quite the fast response.' Three things will happen from today.
One, the dark elves will be in danger. It seems like the demon's attack was not truly the system's mission. The system also affirmed this with him.
Two, a prehistoric beast will pass by. This was out of the system's calculations as well. Luckily, they don't appear at the same time. The beast and the system's trial.
Third, the worst thing happened. 'How can I be so unlucky? Well, thinking about my past 3,5 years of perfect route, unlucky is quite lucky for me. But still...'
It's been a year since Enigma and the dark Elves were forced to migrate. And their choice of direction was East, where Enigma guessed was the direction he came from.
During the year, nothing great happened. Aside from having a few dark Elves scout the demons to gather Intel, not much happened. Everything was just, well, perfect.
Nothing dangerous happened, which made Enigma even more wary. The system also finally finished calculating how much faith points he earned.
As the first anomaly to have not only one Mythical grade believers, but three, his faith points were insane for a juvenile. He could remember the conversation like it was yesterday.
• • • • •
"Due to the high amount of faith points recieved, the system has decided to limit you..."
"I'm not surprised." Enigma cut off the system with a tone bleak of emotions. He was not really surprised at all. It did mention that it's only purpose was to restrict him.
"...You will only recieve ⅓ of the supposed faith points. No change will occur no matter what you do until you have recieved the whole amount of faith points"
"The initial value will be 15 732 faith points, another 15 732 will be added per year, until the first promotion you will have"
"During this process, no calculation will be done on your faith points. The host is warned to find another pastime to do either than focusing on believers"
