End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues

Chapter 227: The Rules Intentionally Concealed



The puppet from the "World." having confirmed that Jeremy had no further issues, simply vanished from sight.

Now, only Jeremy and the class change goddess Janna remained together.

The class change goddess Janna felt it necessary to apologize to Jeremy, as she had failed to inform him in advance about all the precautions following his awakening.

"I must sincerely apologize to you. As the deity responsible for class changes and awakenings, I should have informed you beforehand about all the important considerations to keep in mind after your awakening was completed. Had I shared all the necessary precautions with you, you would not have encountered this crisis."

The class change goddess Janna's words were imbued with sincerity.

Jeremy felt that there was absolutely no need for her to apologize.

This was because Jeremy believed that the class change goddess Janna was likely not aware of all the necessary precautions either.

The underlying reason behind this was what Jeremy found most concerning.

After he had managed to stabilize his condition with some difficulty, Jeremy inquired of the class change goddess Janna in a voice that was somewhat weak,

"Have you encountered a similar situation before?"

"I have not experienced such a situation previously! You should understand that I am a deity, and as a deity, I am naturally expected to possess comprehensive knowledge about all aspects of the domain I oversee.

I am at a loss as to why there are certain precautions regarding awakenings that I am unaware of. This is most likely a deliberate oversight by the planners of the apocalypse game."

The class change goddess Janna stated, directly voicing her speculation.

Jeremy found himself in strong agreement with her conjecture.

However, Jeremy did not necessarily believe that this was solely due to a deliberate targeting by the planners of the apocalypse game.

"I believe this is quite likely a hidden rule. In any game, there are bound to be some concealed regulations. Although the apocalypse game is indeed a perilous undertaking, the existence of hidden rules is rather normal."

After expressing this thought, Jeremy continued in a self-deprecating tone.

"In truth, the reason I encountered the previous crisis was entirely due to my own negligence and carelessness. I thought that with your assistance, I would be shielded from any danger, which is why I failed to take additional precautions.

Had I been more mindful, I would not have engaged in such intense combat immediately after completing my awakening."

Jeremy was not one to easily blame others.

For him, it was clear that he bore the most significant responsibility in this situation.

Moreover, after the previous two class changes, Jeremy had not immediately plunged into intense battles. This was because, at that time, Jeremy had not yet received the assistance of a deity.

Jeremy's words only served to deepen Janna's sense of guilt.

"It is not your fault, and you need not impose excessive pressure upon yourself. All we need to do in our upcoming actions is to remain vigilant about the hidden rules."

The class change goddess Janna reassured him.

Jeremy nodded in agreement.

"You are absolutely right. Now that I have extricated myself from the most perilous situation, I should return to the real world as swiftly as possible. My friends in the real world are quite concerned about me at this moment."

After saying this, Jeremy promptly returned to the real world.

Upon his return, Jeremy was suddenly struck by a wave of dizziness.

"It seems the negative effects of the King of Time and Space talent have not been entirely eliminated. I still need to rest for a longer period to ensure the stability of my condition."

After lying in bed for half an hour, the sensation of dizziness gradually diminished as he rested.

Only after Jeremy noticed the absence of any dizziness did he finally emerge from his bedroom.

"My memory has nearly all returned." Jeremy said to Ritchie in a very gentle tone.

Ritchie looked at Jeremy with a hint of surprise, momentarily at a loss for words.

After a brief pause, Ritchie hurriedly responded, "Are you certain? Your complexion still seems quite poor. I believe you should rest a bit longer."

Jeremy managed to force a faint smile on his face.

"Of course, I will rest a little more. I just hope you can inform others that I have returned to normal. They must be quite anxious at this moment."

After saying this, Jeremy retreated to his bedroom.

The exertion from earlier had drained all of Jeremy's stamina, and he felt an overwhelming wave of drowsiness wash over him.

He believed it was imperative to return to his bedroom and rest as quickly as possible.

As Jeremy made his way back to his room, Ritchie remained vigilant, closely observing his movements.

Only after confirming that Jeremy exhibited no unusual behavior did Ritchie dial Bonnie's number.

Ritchie recounted Jeremy's situation to Bonnie, who, on the other end of the line, was taken aback but quickly made a judgment.

"We cannot ascertain at this point that Jeremy has fully returned to normal. Therefore, you should continue to stay at Jeremy's home as originally planned."

After finishing her remark, Bonnie promptly hung up the phone.

At that moment, Bonnie was situated in the office hall of the city government, where she was not alone, Benjamin and Howard were also present.

Both Benjamin and Howard were deeply concerned about Jeremy's unusual condition.

This was because they had entrusted the safety of Moonlight City to Jeremy.

If Jeremy failed to return to his normal state, the security of Moonlight City could not be guaranteed.

"Jeremy just said he has returned to normal. However, Ritchie informed me that he believes Jeremy's current state is very weak." Bonnie stated directly to Benjamin and Howard after terminating the call.

The expressions on Benjamin and Howard's faces fluctuated with uncertainty.

"Do you believe what he said? Should we inform others about this situation?" Benjamin directly inquired of his daughter.

Bonnie shook her head in response.

"I do not completely trust Ritchie's words, but I do not think he would intentionally deceive me. Moreover, I believe we should refrain from sharing this news with others. After all, Jeremy has many enemies."

The enemies Bonnie referred to primarily included Kean and the members of the Lannisters.

Benjamin and Howard both immediately grasped the implication.

"You are absolutely correct, we should indeed refrain from making this matter public. We must help keep Jeremy's situation confidential."

Howard promptly stated.

"I will not report this to the military headquarters, nor will I retrieve any relevant information from their database. I will only search for pertinent information within the military base's records here in Moonlight City."

Howard believed that searching for information in the military headquarters' database would inevitably draw their attention to Moonlight City.

Thus, all of Howard's subsequent actions would have to remain within the confines of Moonlight City.

Benjamin nodded in agreement.

"You should certainly exercise caution. To my knowledge, the Lannisters have also embedded their pawns within the military headquarters. If they were to learn of Jeremy's current predicament, the Lannisters would undoubtedly seize the opportunity to strike."

After reaching their decision, Bonnie chose to take her leave.

"Since both of you have made your choice, I see no reason to linger here any longer. I need to hurry to Jeremy's home and see for myself how he is faring!"

After delivering her statement, Bonnie swiftly exited the city government hall at the quickest pace possible.

Benjamin and Howard watched her retreating figure, momentarily at a loss for words.

Ultimately, it was Howard who broke the silence.

"She truly is your daughter, her decisive manner of action is strikingly reminiscent of how you were in your youth." Howard remarked, seemingly praising Bonnie.

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Benjamin's mouth, but it quickly faded away.

"I actually do not wish for her to be like I was when I was young. While a decisive approach can indeed be an asset in certain situations, under the circumstances of an impending apocalypse game, such a manner could very well lead her into peril. I do not want her to take unnecessary risks."

Benjamin hoped that Bonnie would exercise more caution.

At least from Benjamin's perspective, he believed that Bonnie did not need to engage in the same kind of reckless adventures as Jeremy.

"Your viewpoint certainly holds merit. However, she is an adult now, and she is capable of making her own judgments." Howard softly replied.

Benjamin nodded in acknowledgment, refraining from uttering another word.

Unbeknownst to Bonnie, she was entirely oblivious to the conversation between Benjamin and Howard.

Thus, she remained unaware that her father was, in fact, slightly dissatisfied with her actions.

At this moment, Bonnie's sole desire was to reach Jeremy's home as quickly as possible.

After more than an hour of driving, Bonnie finally arrived at Jeremy's residence. Without hesitation, she rushed towards Jeremy's house, eager to see him as soon as possible.

However, just before the living room door of Jeremy's home, Ritchie stood directly in her path.

"What do you mean by this? Why are you blocking my way? Are you hiding something from me?"

Bonnie's dissatisfaction with Ritchie's actions was palpable as she bombarded him with three consecutive questions.

Ritchie shook his head and replied, "I believe you should take a moment to calm down. Jeremy is currently resting, and if you barge in unannounced, you are sure to disturb him."

As he said this, Ritchie pointedly gestured towards the direction of Jeremy's bedroom.

Ritchie certainly did not want to see Jeremy disturbed during his time of rest.
