This proposal left Cassandra utterly stunned.
She stared at her daughter's hopeful eyes in the mirror, silent for a whole minute.
"Eve..."
Her voice became extremely complex, filled with both surprise and concern:
"This idea... theoretically, it is indeed feasible. The favor from a breakthrough indeed possesses the power to change the essence of life."
But immediately, the rationality of the Great Wizard took over:
"But the risks are also enormous. The essence of Demon Devouring symptoms is a rebound at the rule level. If the benefic energy conflicts with this rebound..."
"I am willing to take any risk, Mother."
Eve interrupted her without hesitation, her eyes burning with resolute fire:
"I've been living in hell for fourteen years, and if this attempt fails, it's just a return to the starting point. But if it succeeds..."
Her voice became dreamily soft:
"I can gain true freedom."
Cassandra frowned, looking at the resolve in her daughter's eyes.
