Chapter 1549  Lazarus: "Hand Over the Shallot's Mirror"

"Heh. It seems that I really underestimated the current generation.

This man… Eren was the mastermind behind the Lancelot heist. I have no doubt in my mind anymore."

Hansen regarded Eren with a cautious look as he spoke. The longer he observed Eren, the more disquiet he felt. Someone capable of pilfering from House Lancelot and deceiving even Sage Garos couldn't be an ordinary individual. He wasn't sure even he would be able to do something like that with his current Rank.

Hansen had a nagging sense that something more significant was unfolding behind the scenes, something concealed from the knowledge of both kingdoms and their inhabitants.

"We also suffered the loss of Uncle Avir just a few days ago due to that occurrence," Avalon informed Hansen solemnly.

"So, this matter is deeply personal to us. While we appreciate Lord King's Hand taking care of that vile demon Argo, we cannot let the matter rest here.

The Kingdom of Edinburgh must grant House Lancelot the right to launch an assault on the City of White Raven as reparation for Eren and his demon beast's actions."

Avalon demanded from Hansen. Recognizing Hansen's pivotal role in Edinburgh's central administration, he sought permission to directly attack the City of White Raven.

Hansen conferred briefly with Marcus before addressing Avalon once more.

"Very well. I grant you permission in my name," Hansen consented, agreeing to Avalon's request.

"In fact, we shall also dispatch a unit from the Blood Punisher Force to support your efforts. Together, we will raze this half-blood's city to the ground. The Kingdom of Edinburgh will crush everything he has erected with unrelenting force."

Hansen declared, his gaze fixed on Eren with a cruel resolve.

Avalon was elated upon receiving Hansen Lehan's approval.

He promptly relayed the news to House Lancelot's core clan members. While an unexpected confrontation unfolded on the battlefield, the Kingdom of Edinburgh and House Lancelot had forged a collaborative effort to assail Eren's city.

Avalon envisioned that Minerva's Utopia, upon which Eren had built his foundation for so long, would fall into the possession of House Lancelot due to this strategic maneuver.

Avalon couldn't help but gaze at the intense standoff between Eren and Garos with eager anticipation. He yearned for Eren's demise at Garos's hands so that he could regain Shallot's Mirror and the Titan's corpse.

Meanwhile, his house would methodically claim everything from Eren's city, all under the banner of legality. Avalon Lancelot perceived this as a fortunate turn of events for House Lancelot, one concealed beneath the guise of a blessing.

"I must admit, I'm impressed. He not only succeeded to acquire Shallot's Mirror but also seems to have learned to use it in an astoundingly short span of time. This little kitten is quite the enigma, isn't he, Layla dear?"

Eliza asked Layla as she observed Eren's reappearance on the battlefield. Being from the same era as Shallot, Eliza was intimately familiar with the mirror's powers. This is why she had patiently waited even after witnessing Eren's apparent death at Garos's hands.

Of course, she couldn't be entirely certain if Eren had genuinely mastered the use of Shallot's Mirror in such a brief period. This is why she had prepared herself to intervene and eliminate Garos immediately after he dealt a definitive blow to Argo.

"Haah! Frankly, master, I'd be shocked if he didn't secure the Mirror, given all the scheming and plotting he's done over the past decade," Layla replied to Eliza, sighing. Eren had a knack for exceeding expectations, despite her best efforts to overestimate his capabilities. She knew this better than anybody.

Reen smiled looking at Eren's progress. Unlike Argo, she was not part of the battle. Therefore, she could think with a clear head. She could feel her connection with Eren was as strong as ever. That's how she knew Eren had survived his encounter with Garos.

'Hmm? Is there any mystery to this transcendent-grade artifact that we don't know about?' Eliza thought to herself and pondered. She then shook her head and sighed before speaking out loud.

"In any case… He is using it really well. Even I might not have been able to do so if I was in his shoes. However, Shallot's Mirror does have its limitations.

He needs to defeat that Sage swiftly and initiate our plan. But considering his Rank, it is downright impossible. I guess I might need to enter the battle sooner than we planned," Eliza commented playfully.

Watching Eren drink Borrowed Might potions, she was taken aback yet again. Chuckling, she spoke further.

"Fufufu. Would you look at that? It seems he's also acquired some peculiar potions, so it might be possible. The little kitten appears to have prepared quite meticulously.

Ah! I'm eagerly waiting for him to activate the first Runic Formation so that I can reveal myself. I can hardly wait any longer," Eliza remarked with an expectant and anticipatory expression as she observed the battlefield. Since Eren still had things under control, she decided to hold on for a bit longer.

Layla, conversely, felt more anxious than ever.

She had been thoroughly briefed on Eren's plan to pilfer Shallot's Mirror from Grandmaster Baelin's smithy. After all, she had played a role in executing Eren's objectives within the city and had a deep understanding of the plan.

Under normal circumstances, there was simply no way Eren could have obtained Shallot's Mirror and made a clean escape from the City of Lancelot.

It was as though Shallot's Mirror had purposefully nullified its own limitations to facilitate Eren's escape.

'Leela, you… you need to be careful. That man… he is… I hate to say this but… he is even more dangerous than our master.'

Layla instructed her sister Leela to exercise extreme caution when dealing with Eren and Shallot's Mirror.

Leela was tasked with managing the aspects related to the use of Shallot's Mirror in the Lazarus Project. Layla was determined to prevent Sage Eliza and her sister Leela from experiencing any unexpected complications during the actual execution of the Lazarus Project.
