The moment that he tapped on the submit button, a blaring siren resounded within Aecateon’s ears.

Upon the appearance of the panel he dreaded to see, Aectaeon couldn’t stop himself from groaning inwardly.

With contempt in his eyes, Aectaeon watched as the series of transparent panels flashed quickly before his eyes. He slumped further down his seat as he felt the frustration coursing through his veins. 

‘There’s not much time between the Guessing Opportunity and the next transmigration. Meaning, I have to correctly predict what’s the last letter on my own. Luck better be on my side or hell be damned. That artefact will be an important key to my survival..’

As he thought of his unfortunate fate, Aectaeon began to regather his resolve. 

The man wanted to escape this system of endless transmigrations. However, if fate refused to align with his wishes, then there’s one thing left for him to do. 

And that was to set the system ablaze with the own fire that it created.

Aectaeon need not deliberate about the change in their rule. Targeting one Demon at a time would only lead to a boring battle.

At that point, Aectaeon didn't feel the suffocation of seeing his Demons get attacked. He was back to his old self -- the one who was nonchalant about what was happening around him. The one who opposed the flow, following his pace like it was his God.

Vernos nodded, satisfied at the man's answer. Although, he had the urge to ask why Aectaeon seemed to be fine with the new arrangement. As he had seen earlier, Aectaeon ought to be angered by what he had proposed.

'What's with the change of heart? Is it because he's guilty?' Vernos then inhaled sharply as he tilted his head to the side, 'That doesn't seem to be it. What's wrong with him? Is this his plan from the start?'
