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

In the darkness, Ritchie felt a powerful, crushing pressure. He knew exactly what it was—the space was rapidly folding in on itself. Although Ritchie didn't possess any spatial abilities, he had spent a long time with Jeremy, and during that time, he had gained some understanding of spatial distortions.

Ritchie tried to use his shadow-related skills to counteract the folding of the space. But in the end, he failed completely.

Just before losing consciousness, Ritchie caught sight of a faint light within the black shadow. Though he had made this additional discovery, he had no time to analyze the light or its characteristics.

As Ritchie lost consciousness, Jeremy and Liam arrived in a special space.

In this unique space, the two of them couldn't feel the presence of gravity. This meant that they were free to move in any direction within the space.

Without gravity, up and down were difficult to distinguish.

"This space is really strange. You'd better not wander too far from me. If you do, you'll likely get completely lost," Jeremy said, noticing the unusual properties of the space.

Liam quickly nodded in agreement.

Although Liam didn't have spatial perception abilities, the lack of gravity made him feel uneasy. He understood that the space they were in was highly unusual.

"Even though there's no gravity here, I can simulate it by adjusting the direction of the space. Get ready, I'll make you feel gravity in a moment," Jeremy said, before activating his The King of Time and Space talent.

With this ability, Jeremy manipulated the space to create a simulated gravitational field.

As the simulated gravity took effect, both Jeremy and Liam quickly began to fall in one direction.

Soon, they reached the bottom of the space.

At this point, they could continue moving forward.

It took Liam some time to adapt to the new environment.

"What's going on here? How can there be such a special space? Is this space even part of the real world?"

Liam's confusion was completely understandable.

Liam had previously been to several instances with complex spatial features, but in all of those instances, gravity had always been present. This was because those instances were essentially part of the real world. Gravity could penetrate through to them.

Jeremy didn't respond, because, in truth, he didn't know the answer himself.

"We just need to keep moving forward! Our first priority is to find Bonnie! Once we've found her, we can think about how to get out of here," Jeremy said.

At this point, Jeremy still believed that Bonnie was somewhere in the special space.

Liam didn't object to Jeremy's plan. After all, they had come here with the sole purpose of rescuing Bonnie. If they couldn't save her, then leaving the special space wouldn't mean anything.

The two of them continued moving forward for about fifteen minutes.

"Do you notice that it seems like we've come back to where we started?" Jeremy asked slowly, observing their surroundings.

Liam shook his head. "Have we come back to the same place? I feel like the scenery around us is very different from what I saw before."

Liam wasn't lying—what he saw around them was indeed very different from what he had seen earlier. However, the scene Jeremy saw was the same as before.

This meant that the two of them were seeing drastically different things.

When Jeremy heard Liam's response, his expression changed dramatically. He began to worry that he had fallen into some kind of illusion.

"What does the environment around you look like?" Jeremy asked anxiously.

"The surroundings look like a normal cave. We passed several forks in the road earlier. Didn't you see the cave scene?" Liam answered, his tone uncertain.

Liam was genuinely puzzled because, to him, Jeremy's behavior seemed very strange.

Liam's answer only confirmed to Jeremy that they were indeed seeing illusions. What Jeremy saw wasn't a cave, but instead a maze-like underwater landscape.

"What's going on? You look really distressed! Did I say something wrong?" Liam quickly asked, his concern growing.

Liam was now deeply worried about their situation.

He couldn't shake the feeling that Jeremy was hiding some very important information.

Jeremy's expression grew serious, and he nodded.

"You're right. My face must look pretty bad right now. We're not just trapped in a special space—we've also been caught in an illusion."

When Liam heard this, his own expression darkened.

Both of them could feel the enormous threat looming over them, but they didn't take immediate action. They didn't know what steps to take next.

As they hesitated, Bonnie suddenly appeared before them.

"You guys are finally here! I've been saved!"

Bonnie, looking incredibly relieved, ran towards them.

However, Jeremy and Liam's faces grew wary.

They had just realized they were in an illusion when Bonnie appeared so suddenly. The two of them immediately understood that this Bonnie was not real.

Without wasting any time, Jeremy and Liam prepared for a fight.

"Don't come any closer! We can't be sure if you're the real Bonnie or an illusion! You need to answer our questions first!" Jeremy's voice rang out, firm and urgent.

Bonnie froze in place.

"What are you talking about? Of course, I'm the real one. My reckless actions caused you to come rescue me. I'm really sorry for that. If you want me to apologize, I will apologize right now."

Bonnie assumed that Jeremy and Liam were acting this way because they were upset with her.

Liam quickly spoke up.

"This isn't the right time for an apology. And I don't think you need to apologize either. We really can't be sure if you're real or not. So please, just answer a few questions for us."

Since Liam had said this, Bonnie didn't move forward any longer.

"Alright then, ask me whatever you want! I can definitely prove that I'm the real one!" Bonnie replied without hesitation.

Jeremy and Liam were beginning to believe that Bonnie was indeed real, but they still wanted to be sure.

Over the next few minutes, the two of them fired off several questions at Bonnie, hoping for confirmation.

These were all questions that only Bonnie and the two of them would know the answers to.

Bonnie quickly provided her answers, and they were flawless. This meant that the Bonnie standing in front of them was indeed the real one.

"You are the real Bonnie. But why did you suddenly appear in front of us? And what does the scene around you look like?"

After realizing that Bonnie was indeed real, Jeremy asked a series of questions.

"I didn't suddenly appear in front of you. I've been watching you for a while. I even tried to get your attention. But no matter how loudly I called, you seemed unable to hear me."

Bonnie paused for a moment before continuing, "The scene I see is just an ordinary cave. What else would it be? Aren't we in a cave right now? It's just a very complex one."

Bonnie's answers left Jeremy very confused.

He couldn't understand why Bonnie and Liam were seeing the same scene, while he was seeing something different. "What exactly is going on? Why are you two seeing the same scene, but I'm seeing something completely different? Could it be that because I'm stronger, I'm not being fooled by this illusion as easily?"

Jeremy furrowed his brow, speaking more to himself than to anyone else.

Bonnie and Liam both stared at him, their gazes fixed and intense. They both quickly realized something was off with Jeremy's behavior.

Liam moved closer to Bonnie, lowering his voice so Jeremy wouldn't overhear.

"I think Jeremy might have fallen into some kind of abnormal state. If it comes down to a fight between me and him, you need to run. You won't be able to defeat him."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Bonnie looked at Liam, her expression one of disbelief.

"I never thought I'd be in a situation like this. I finally find Jeremy and Liam, and now I'm faced with even more trouble."

"Even if Jeremy's mental state is unstable, I don't think he'd ever attack us. He's our companion, he's always been there to help us, and he would never harm us."

Bonnie spoke with full conviction, her belief in Jeremy unwavering. The idea that he might turn on them felt impossible.

Liam sighed deeply, running a hand over his face in frustration.

"I hope you're right. But the truth is, we can't know what's coming. I just want you to be ready for the worst."

He fell silent after that, and both Liam and Bonnie kept their eyes fixed on Jeremy, their tension mounting with each passing moment.

Bonnie, despite her confidence in Jeremy, couldn't shake the growing unease inside her. She had hoped that finding him would bring an end to the danger, but now it seemed they were trapped in an even worse situation.

She still didn't want to believe that Jeremy would ever harm them, but the situation had shifted. Her trust in him was now laced with doubt, even if just a little.
