Chapter 820 - 820
Do the gods know how arrogant you are?"Oh, isn't that Narcissus?"
Coincidentally, just as Eiji was inwardly grumbling, the person beside him glanced over, revealing a pleasantly surprised expression.
"God, you've done well. You know what's good for you—I won't destroy your temple today!"
The person clapped their hands again.
The words spoken drew exasperated looks from those nearby.
She had long golden hair and wore a white dress with a corseted waist that accentuated her ample chest, slender waist, and shapely legs. Her figure was tall and graceful.
Her inhumanly beautiful face and exceptional mature beauty made the men around her stare with infatuated expressions.
She seemed like a stranger.
But her tone felt very familiar to Eiji.
Especially those emerald-green eyes, like gemstones, seemed to carry a hint of laughter, as if waiting to see him make a fool of himself.
"This isn't called a temple; it's called a shrine."
Eiji's voice was low.
"Oh? Is that so?"
The stunning beauty covered her slightly parted lips in surprise, looking as if she had just learned something new.
The men nearby, seeing how easily she had been approached, beat their chests in frustration, their faces full of regret.
If they had known this beauty was so easy to strike up a conversation with, they would never have let this weirdo get ahead of them!
"What do you want with me?"
Eiji looked into those familiar eyes.
His gaze was like an X-ray, instantly seeing through the other person inside and out. He already understood.
"Are you that bored, Giada?"
"Oh? You figured it out so quickly?"
The golden-haired beauty pursed her lips slightly and let out a soft laugh.
"Thanks to you, I'm not busy at all right now."
Her tone showed no trace of resentment toward Eiji.
Having lost to Eiji's sword, she accepted her defeat wholeheartedly.
As a True Ancestor, she was not one to be a sore loser.
That's right.
This woman was the Third True Ancestor, the Chaos Princess, Giada Kukulkan!
In a corner of the shrine.
"Legend says the Third True Ancestor can change her appearance at will. It seems that's true."
Eiji looked her up and down, taking in this familiar yet unfamiliar woman.
The previous Giada had a youthful appearance, looking no older than fifteen.
But this Giada had a mature style, appearing at least twenty-six or twenty-seven years old.
Not only her face but her figure was entirely different, almost like two extremes.
This was Giada's ability.
Her ever-changing appearance allowed her to alter her looks freely. Not only could she replicate others' faces, but she could also create entirely new ones as if customizing a character in a game—completely normal for her!
Anyone who married her would never lose the sense of novelty!
"I don't really like this appearance. The previous one suited me better."
Giada also examined herself, frowning slightly as if dissatisfied.
She felt more comfortable with her previous, almost loli-like appearance.
However, since she often wandered around, that look was relatively well-known. To keep a low profile, she deliberately chose a completely opposite appearance.
"I think this one looks better."
Eiji remarked casually.
"Really?"
Giada looked at him in surprise, lost in thought.
Is this guy's type milfs?
"You still haven't said why you came to find me."
Eiji then asked, "Let me make this clear first—I'm not returning the vessel to you."
"That's fine. Vatler doesn't intend to reclaim it, so I won't make you return it either. Besides, I'm no match for you anyway."
Jadda shook her head, somewhat dejected.
Having lived for thousands of years, yet unable to defeat a mere teenage boy—the thought alone was utterly crushing.
"Then why are you here?"
Eiji sounded puzzled.
Honestly, the moment he learned she was Jadda, he had already prepared for a fight.
And now you're saying you're not here to pick a fight?
"What, can't I come see you for no reason?"
Jadda pouted, inexplicably annoyed.
The way you say that, anyone would think you're my girlfriend.
"In that case, I'm leaving!"
Eiji turned and walked away without hesitation.
I, Eiji, live by my own rules in relationships—I never indulge others!
"Hey!"
Jadda grew anxious instead and couldn't help shouting after him.
"Fine, fine! I have business with you, okay?"
"Then state your business!"
Eiji stopped walking, his face stern but with a smug grin.
I've got the Third True Ancestor wrapped around my finger.

"Earlier, Koyomi Shizuka came to me."
Jadda composed herself and spoke calmly.
"According to her, she wants to cooperate with me to eliminate you."
She laid out the entire previous conversation between Koyomi Shizuka and herself without holding anything back.
Koyomi Shizuka probably never imagined Jadda would sell her out so easily, right?
"I see. That's within expectations."
Eiji remained remarkably calm.
He had long known that once the number of vessels in his possession increased, the Japanese government would inevitably grow restless.
However, he hadn't expected them to approach Jadda.
The two sides held a mortal grudge. Eiji had witnessed firsthand Jadda's fury upon nearly being controlled by the Japanese government. If it were the Forgotten War King, provoked to that extent, he might have already mobilized troops, sharpening his blades for Japan.
One would think Jadda wouldn't agree either—
"I agreed."
Jadda said cheerfully.
That's right.
She agreed.
Right in front of Koyomi Shizuka, she consented to deal with the armored figure first, then settle the old score with the Japanese government!
"..."
Eiji was rendered speechless.
He looked utterly bewildered.
What the hell are you trying to pull?
"If you agreed to cooperate with the Lion King Organization against me, why come here and tell me about it?"
Eiji stared at Jadda in confusion, wondering if this woman had a few screws loose.
"What exactly is your goal?"
If you really plan to deal with me, why not stay hidden in the shadows instead of coming to tell me to my face?
Isn't that just stupid?
"Take off your sunglasses and mask, and I'll tell you!"
Jadda looked at him expectantly, rubbing her hands together excitedly.
Eiji fell silent for a moment.
He glanced around, pondered briefly, and led Jadda into a small grove beside the shrine.
"!"
Akira stared in shock at their disappearing figures, feeling completely unsettled.
In the grove.
As promised, Eiji removed the two items covering his face, revealing features that could truly be described as devastatingly beautiful.
Jadda's breath hitched, her eyes lighting up.
Her hands instinctively rose, gently caressing that flawless face that showed no imperfection from any angle, as if possessing the magic to soothe any discontent within her.
"Can you tell me now?"
Eiji fixed his gaze on Gada.
To be honest, her current appearance quite matched his preferences, so he didn't mind having his face touched.
"...My objective has been achieved."
It took Gada a moment to collect herself before reluctantly yet decisively releasing her hand.
She shot Eiji a malicious grin.
"As for what it is... guess!"
With those words, her figure suddenly vanished as if teleporting.
"Damn!"
Eiji slammed his sunglasses onto the ground.
"You guess whether I'll guess or not!"
He had actually been taken advantage of for free!
Unforgivable, Gada!
