"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!" Eliza heard another of Eren's screams and opened her eyes wide open. She couldn't believe the second serpent head had also bitten Eren right after the first head was done. 'I… I should wait and see. Maybe he'll survive. I hope so. Damn it. If the boy is gone, it'd be tough to find another suitable pawn. Or go back to my flawed vessel plan.' Eliza cursed herself after realizing she had let the second snake bite Eren. this was not supposed to happen at all. In her era,…-

"A desire to be freer than the current you. A desire to surpass the Sage status and reach beyond. If walking on the path of sins would allow me to fulfil my desires that much faster, then so be it." Eliza frowned when she thought that Eren was underestimating her status too much. But she then felt the changes in his presence. As she gazed into his eyes, she felt the desire to surpass the current shackled-by-fate Sage ranker that was her. Eliza also felt that each of the words he spoke had come…

"This is the true reward for clearing the first floor of the tower, Eren. You will receive a mark as you keep on clearing the floors. ... The mark of the Seven Sins." Eren caressed his chin after he heard that. He was about to ask what the mark was. And how would it benefit him? But turned out he didn't need to because Eliza told him about them on her own: "The marks let you tap into other planes and use their mana powers for your own. As for the specific benefits or disadvantages, they grant to…

"Because, first, I don't want to. And second, I can avoid being on the run. You can't. Simple as that." Ivor's face turned red in anger when he heard Eren's answer. But Eren raised his hand in a stopping sign before explaining what he wanted to say: "Let me rephrase that. You and I both have a few choices to ourselves here, Ivor. My choice is to be honest or to be smart. Tell me, what would I choose? I'd rather complete the task given to me by Sage Eliza in silence than worry about being hunted.…

"Still, Sage Eliza, I can say for sure that there might have been a lot of discrepancies in declaring Ivor as the OWB. How did they look past them?" Eliza chuckled while playing with the green flame dancing over her index finger and said: "People see what they want to see, Eren. There were indeed a lot of discrepancies, and Arthur shared them with me. He ignored them after considering one person in his mind. That little eel's grandfather. What was his name again, hm? Yeah… Isen Osan. Arthur…

"Ho… hold down! Who is the Osan Woods Butcher here?" Ivor shouted and started looking at everybody. Then he started looking in the void as if trying to see someone that could be hidden. The more he learned about the incident from Eliza's mouth the more his heartbeat kept on increasing. "It's Eren, little eel. He almost fooled an entire kingdom of yours with his performance. Get on with the program already." Eliza said to Ivor in a reprimanding tone. Then she pondered a bit while looking at Eren…

Eren turned to Eliza and Reen while pointing a finger at Ivor– shock and unbelief were written all over his face– before speaking up in a loud voice: "Those sods think Ivor is the Osan Woods Butcher!" Eliza chuckled for a while before nodding at his statement. Eren looked back and forth between Reen's, Eliza's, and Ivor's faces. The slap-fest victim was also confused about what Eren had said for a while. It took him a while to process half the stuff Eren was saying and immediately had a…

"What do you want to know? Let me make it clear though. I have no fucking clue about half of the stuff you'd be asking. I have questions of my own, damn it." Ivor said and looked at Eren with expressions that screamed that he was feeling wronged. The butcher thought about it for a while then turned his neck back at Eliza. The Sage had an amused expression on her face. The butcher realized that he couldn't get any answer from the witch anytime soon. So he focused on his slap-fest victim at hand:…

'What the fuck is happening here?' Eren looked at Eliza with the same expressions Ivor had written all over his face. Eliza chuckled before making a few things clear: "Fufufu! Eren, why don't you ask this kid why he was brought here? I want to see how long it takes for you to realize the sheer oddness of your luck." Eliza snapped her fingers and the runic marks over Ivor's lips vanished. The latter didn't know what change had taken place at first. But he soon found out that his facial muscles had…

"I'm just getting dragged into another mess I never intended to be part of. Nothing new for me. Tell me what you want me to do." Eliza could tell Eren had suddenly flipped the switch in his head. This was good and bad news for her at the same time. The good news was that the guy wasn't as useless as she thought him to be. He could still be useful to her. The dragon half-blood started seeing Eren as a broken young man that could keep his emotions in check given enough time to recoup from his…
