Chapter 10: Dehya, With the Eyes of God, Will My Magic Scale Disease Be Cured?

Chapter Ten: Dehya, With the Eyes of God, Will My Magic Scale Disease Be Cured?

Sumeru is a nation of wisdom, and the position of the Sacred Order Academy holds great importance.

So, when something happened at the Sacred Order, it immediately garnered unmatched attention.

Upon hearing Kalati's screams, a group of thirty people rushed to the scene.

Scholars nearby also hurried over upon hearing the commotion.

"Someone dares to cause trouble in the Academy!"

"What's going on? They must have a death wish!"

"It seems to be Instructor Karati's research room!"

"Karati!? I think I just saw Ayexia go in!"

"Ayexia!"

The group of thirty heard the discussions around them and kicked open the door.

The scene inside left everyone speechless.

They saw Karati's fat, pig-like body entangled by countless thorns, hanging upside down in the air.

The thorns pierced his fleshy body, causing deep, bleeding wounds!

Meanwhile, Ayexia stood silently and immaculately beside him.

"Guard!"

"I want to file a report. Karati threatened to reject my thesis."

"He tried to force me to become his concubine, or else he would fail my thesis!"

At this statement, the surrounding scholars erupted in anger.

"What!? Karati, like Habanda, actually did something so disgraceful!"

"Scum! A parasite of the Sacred Order!"

"My God, if a young scholar fails their thesis, they can no longer be a scholar!"

"I heard Karati's work methods were shady, but I never imagined it was this bad!"

"I knew it! His five or six previous concubines probably married him through dirty means!"

"I told you, Karati is in his fifties, ugly and fat—how could young female scholars be interested in him!?"

"…"

Hearing the discussions around them, the corners of the mercenaries' mouths from the 30th regiment twitched.

The Sacred Order couldn't endure such a scandal!

The leader discreetly signaled his comrade next to him.

The latter hurriedly leaned against the research room door, blocking the view of the scholars outside.

"Miss Ayexia, I believe there's been some misunderstanding!"

"A misunderstanding!?"

Ayexia revealed her God's Eye: "You're not trying to cover this up, are you?"

"God… a God's Eye!?"

Seeing the green orb in Ayexia's hand, everyone's pupils shrank.

Whether in Sumeru or any country in Teyvat, once someone possesses a God's Eye, their status immediately rises to a frightening level!

What right do ordinary people have?

This world is that realistic!

Looking across all of Sumeru, how many people have a God's Eye?

There might be only twenty or thirty people in total!

Therefore, every person who possesses a God's Eye is one in a million!

The scholars watching from outside were all astonished.

"Ayexia has a God's Eye!?"

"It's actually a Grass attribute God's Eye! A favor from Lord Tree King!"

"It looks like Ayexia will become an important figure in the Academy in the future!"

"But… that's impossible! She didn't have it yesterday!"

"What? You mean Ayexia got the God's Eye last night!?"

All the spectators cast eager glances at Ayexia.

Who wouldn't want a God's Eye!?

With a God's Eye, you immediately become a person valued by Sumeru's high management!

"Ayexia!"

A girl emerged from the crowd—it was the friend Ayexia had met yesterday.

"You have a God's Eye? Did the Kerrians give it to you!?"

"No… Only the gods can give people God's Eyes… but why…"

Upon hearing the girl speak to herself, the surrounding scholars immediately grew excited.

"What!? Ayexia's God's Eye is because of that Kerrian!?"

"Could it be that if you become a Kerrian's concubine, you'll have a chance to get a God's Eye!?"

"I want a God's Eye too!"

"Wait a minute! You're all scholars of the Sacred Order; you can't jump to conclusions like ordinary people! We must be rational!"

"If you think about it, it's absolutely impossible! The power to grant humans God's Eyes comes from the gods! The people of Khaenri'ah couldn't possibly have them!"

"It must be a coincidence! Kerrians don't even believe in gods!"

"But what if!?"

That one phrase left all the debating scholars silent.

Yes.

What if?

This is a God's Eye!

Obtaining it could change your fate instantly!

Even though the hope is small, what if?

Even though all of them are scholars devoted to facts, who can remain calm upon hearing about a God's Eye?

Be rational?

Don't be ridiculous!

At that moment, the mercenaries of the 30th regiment were in a bind.

"Miss Ayexia, I understand. We will give you an explanation for this matter!"

"In short, cut Karati down first, or he'll die!"

With a wave of Ayexia's small hand, the thorns slowly retreated back into her God's Eye.

Karati's pitiful state at that moment was unforgettable for everyone.

"Ayexia, did you really marry that old monster from Khaenri'ah!?"

Her friend seemed worried but couldn't hide the disgust in her eyes when she mentioned the "old monster."

Ayexia didn't explain.

She wasn't ready to reveal that Ye Xi was actually quite handsome just yet!

Seeing Ayexia remain silent, her friend thought Ayexia didn't want to recall that painful memory, so she comforted her: "It's all over now, Ayexia…"

…

The story of Karati spread quickly through the city of Sumeru.

A girl became the wife of a Kerrian and, in doing so, obtained a God's Eye.

That rumor spread like a web, weaving its way through every street and alley in Sumeru.

"Have you heard? If you're chosen by Master Ye Xi, you can get a God's Eye!"

"Shh! Don't talk nonsense, or the Great Sage will hear you!"

"I think it's just a coincidence. Maybe that old monster was so disgusting that the girl was blinded by the gods…"

"I heard the girl was the most beautiful in the Miao Lun School, and she just came of age! Tsk tsk tsk, what a pity."

"…"

Nearby the group discussing, a girl hid in a corner, eavesdropping.

Just as she focused, a voice suddenly came from behind her, startling her!

"Miss, why did you sneak out again!"

Dunyarzad was terrified, clutching her chest and gasping for air.

Her health was very poor due to the erosion of the Devil's Scale disease, and even a slight shock left her breathless.

"Lost!?"

Dehya was flustered for a moment and quickly supported Dunyarzad's shoulder: "Sorry, I didn't mean it!"

"It's alright… Dehya…"

Dunyarzad took a deep breath and calmed down: "You found me again."

"Miss, please come back with me!"

"The Master and Madam are very worried about you sneaking out for so long!"

After hearing Dehya's words, Dunyarzad shook her head: "Dehya, did you hear?"

"Just now, everyone was talking about Kerrians…"

"I heard that a girl who married a Kerrian received a God's Eye."

"Dehya, with a God's Eye, will my Magic Scale disease be cured?"
