"What if a student hides so that he cannot receive a challenge invitation?"

"I know you will ask that. Unfortunately, Deputy sir. You are still able to receive a challenge invitation whether you like it or not. Hiding is useless…"

"Eh, how?"

"Eh? Deputy sir—" surprised was discernible on Faye's face for a second. However, he remembered the Deputy's situation so he paused and cleared his throat. "Ahem!" Then he took something from his spatial ring. "Because of this artefact, Deputy sir," said Faye as he showed him a familiar object.

Eman stared at it and thought that it looked familiar. Yeah, it was the same object that he saw from Mina. It was when they were traveling back to the main city from the subjugation mission. He saw her holding an object similar to it.

"Uh— Faye, what is that?"

"Guess you can't remember this as well. This artefact is known as the Divine Tablet."

'Hm, Divine Tablet?' Eman asked inwardly. "Uh, what is the use of it?"

"Deputy sir, this Divine Tablet not only can measure your Attributes, but it can also send you a signal whenever a challenge invitation is issued to you," said Faye.

Eman blinked his eyes. This tablet could measure a person's attributes? Wait, is this that kind of thing like in anime or games? Like my system?

"Wait, Faye, do you mean I can check my attributes through this device?" He asked.

"Yep, Deputy Sir!"

Eman felt surprised and curious at the same time.

"Can you show me how?" Upon saying it, he noticed Faye's eyes darted from left to right, seemingly skeptical.

Looks like he asked something absurd huh. Right, it was like asking someone to show his naked body. It must be taboo. Eman said his sorry and said it's fine if he couldn't show it. 

"Sorry, Deputy Sir," Faye said sorry, and he was glad to the Deputy's understanding. "But it's easy to use this device deputy sir. You just have to feed it with your magical energy…"

Faye then explained to him all the information that he needed to know. As he thought, it was really the same as his status screen. 

"By the way, Faye, how to get it?"

"Eh?"

"..."

Eman frowned at Faye's silence.

"Uh, I mean, I remembered you said once that you threw your Divine Tablet somewhere after you got rejected by that beautiful Miss from the Goldenlotus family."

"Eh? For real?"

"And also, that time, because of getting heartbroken, you are set to leave the academy. Even the leader himself could not change your mind."

"Ehhh!" He wondered what the former host was thinking about. Looks like they were different in this aspect. The former host was probably the type of person who was eager to pursue his love.

He, on the other hand, was contrary to him. Pursuing the person you love was troublesome. It must also be the reason why he died, out of karma. No, he grew distant about his personal feelings.

He found it troublesome every time he thought about it. His future with Marie might be different if he was putting more effort into their relationship.

They could be together if he tried a little bit to pursue her. But, yeah, he wasn't putting much effort to push their relationship. After Marie was taken by her parents to the other country, he didn't follow because he felt it was a waste of time. 

It didn't mean that he didn't love her. It just, he found it troublesome to pursue. Honestly, he was the type of person who was always bothered by the words 'what if?!'

What if all his effort will be in vain?

What if one of them changed his/her feelings in the long run?

What if in the end the two of them won't end up together? There were cases that sweet lovers did not end up together in the end.

Because of this 'what if', he became naive. 

He was full of negativity.

He was weak and afraid to face the uncertainties.

But all of this was part of him. No need to blame anyone but himself.

And now, how ironic it is to be reincarnated in a body of a person who is the exact opposite of him. A person who did his best for the person he loves. A person who struggles even if the future was uncertain.

He, on the other hand, was a failure as a boyfriend. He didn't deserve her. That's why he deserved to be alone. That's why he died. Well, the two of them (he and the former host) end up dying in the end.

"..."

After telling all the other details regarding the Divine Tablet, Eman and Faye followed after their class.

After the class, Eman went to Herro. He asked him if he knew where he threw his Divine Tablet. 

Unfortunately, he had no idea either. Herro advised him to request a new one in the Clan Hall. He just needed to pay a considerable amount of AP.

"I see, but how am I going to pay? And how do I claim an AP?" 

Although he already learned what was AP and how to earn it, his problem now was, how to claim those AP?

"..."

"Uh, erm…you can only receive and check your AP in your Divine Tablet," Herro replied.

"Is it?"

"Yes, bro, but don't worry, the clan will get it for you."

"You mean?"

"Our Merciless clan…"

"..."

Looks like he would be defending on Herro once again.

After arriving home, he scrutinized the former hosts' belongings to try to find his Divine Tablet. He opened the cabinet and looked under his bed. Then, he checked his clothes one by one. In the end, he could not find it.

He decided to stop and laid his back on the bed. Although he didn't feel tired, he decided to close his eyes. Out of a sudden, his eyes opened once again when he heard a knocking from outside the door.

Eman widened his perception and figured out who it was. He noticed it was Aunt Claire.

"Here! Someone from the palace handed it. It was addressed to you."

Upon opening the door, Aunt Claire gave him a parchment and told him what happened. "Hehe, could it be that His Majesty the Emperor honored your request?" She asked with a grin.

"It must be…" Eman's mouth slowly stretched to both sides as he replied.

He glanced at Miss Claire and asked her about Eina. She told him that she was at the town school at the moment. 

He nodded.

Regardless, he already sent two of his people to guard his sister. He asked Aunt Claire that he would go in which Claire nodded.

When he stepped outside, the sun already shone at a 3 o'clock angle.

He could summon his personal carriage from his Lord's Domain, but this time, he rode on a normal one.

Just right when he arrived at the road that there was a passing carriage. 

It was already dark outside when he arrived at the palace.

He wondered if it was fine for him to visit the palace even though it was already night. But in the letter, it was stated that he could visit any time of this day. 

Wait, what if the words stated there were anytime in a day? To avoid embarrassing himself, he hastily rechecks the parchment.

He sighed in relief after seeing that he was right. He could come anytime on this day. Perhaps the emperor wanted to patch this business much sooner. Probably, he had a lot of work to do that in line.

He showed the parchment to people guarding the towering gate of the palace. They only opened the gate after checking the authenticity of the parchment. Then he stepped inside after saying his gratitude.

After stepping inside, he was greeted by other guards. Then they led him to her majesty's main chamber. He was a little surprised though. Looks like his majesty already expected him to come.

They walked on a long white corridor. In which the tiled floor was in purple and golden color.

After a couple of minutes walking the long corridor, they finally stopped in front of another door. But this time, the door was more exquisite. It had a golden color. And heads of a beast were stuck on it.

It was gaping beasts with fierce-looking faces.

The door made a creaking noise when the two guards pushed it. While the door was slowly gaping, the yellow light coming from the inside emblazoned his face. 

Never in his dream that he had expected that there comes a day that he would be able to step inside a palace.

A real palace!

His eyes were greeted by the crystalline chandeliers that were hanging up above the clean and beautiful ceiling.

They were sending warm and golden brilliance to illuminate the spacious room. 

In the center, ahead of him, at the end of the red carpet, an aged-man was sitting comfortably on his seat.

"Come!"

Upon hearing the man's voice, he marched forward.
