Zeke asked, “Oh? How do you plan to prove it?”
“I realize the area on my wrist where the divine talisman is imprinted will not be injured or bleed. If I cut my skin
around the talisman, the unharmed part will form the shape of the divine talisman.”
“Is that so?” Sole Wolf was intrigued. “I'd like to give that a try.”
Zeke hurriedly said, “That's not needed, Sole Wolf. I've already confirmed the presence of the divine talisman on his
wrist. It won't be favorable if we startle and alert Theos by damaging the divine talisman using external force.”
Sole Wolf grunted in response. He was curious to know what the divine talisman looked like.
Zeke asked further, “Tell me, what appearance does Theos adopt in your dreams?”
Scar Face shook his head. “Honestly, I didn't see Theos even in my dreams. I only felt myself being surrounded by
white lights, and no matter what I did, I could never leave or escape. Theos' voice sounded from atop my head, but

extremely light in that place, and I could travel several dozen meters with a single leap.”
Zeke's heart shuddered when he heard Scar Face's description. A thought seemed to have popped into Zeke's
head. The brightly lit place is a different world? Is it possible that Theos brought Scar Face to a parallel universe
where the old beggar and Lacey were detained? This is highly possible. That means the divine talisman on Scar
Face's wrist was branded by Theos in the parallel universe. Perhaps I can discover another parallel universe by
relying on this divine talisman.
He now had his eyes on Scar Face's divine talisman. Still, this is not something I can accomplish within a short
period. I'll have to free up some time to focus on investigating this divine talisman on Scar Face's wrist in the future.
Zeke said to Scar Face, “That's enough. You can go back now.”
Feeling utterly relieved for being spared, he hastily groveled at Zeke's feet and expressed his gratitude.
Zeke added, “Also, I have a task for you. You can't be the only spy. Theos must've recruited others to do this job. I
want you to secretly identify the other spies without alerting them and promptly report your findings to me.”
Scar Face nodded. “I understand.”
“Zeke, something is not right,” Sole Wolf piped up, as he seemed to have thought of something. “This guy told us
Theos would punish him if he harbored the desire to betray Theos. However, nothing has happened to him until
now! Why don't you explain this to us, Scar Face?”
Scar Face answered, “I did not betray Theos, so why would he punish me?”
“You're spilling the beans to us. Isn't that an act of betrayal?”
Scar Face retorted at once, “Who's spilling the beans? I'm just asking you to help me look for the Heavenly Stone.
I'm trying to assist Theos, not turn on him.”
Zeke and the others were amused. They realized Scar Face was equipped with extraordinarily outstanding mental

Scar Face had been convincing himself that he hadn't double-crossed Theos. Hence, he wasn't punished because
he didn't feel guilty.
Subsequently, Scar Face left.
Zeke immediately ordered Sole Wolf, “Sole Wolf, keep a close watch on Scar Face from now on. I can't shake off the
feeling that he's still hiding some things from us.”
“Understood.”
“Also, all of you keep an eye on the search for Heavenly Stone and report to me instantly if there's any relevant
discovery.”
“Understood.”
“You can leave now if there's nothing else. I'm going to practice my divine weapon-forging skill.”
Sole Wolf quickly added, “Zeke, there's another small matter. The Northern King is preparing to attack us. What
should we do?”
