The official page of Heaven appeared on the screen, and using the administrator's username and password, Maria logged in.

“Alright. We should sum up the information we have collected so far,” Maria said as her fingers continued to race across the keyboard.

Nodding his head, Anthony said, “After you."

"The Empire will surely Launch the second Eastern Expedition," said Maria.

Anthony added, “Octavian arrived in Highwyn a week ago, and we can confirm that he is currently in Broome."

The two of them smiled at each other.

As the top hackers of Heaven, Maria and Anthony, whose nicknames were M and Night respectively, could gather intelligence about the leader of the opposing camp.

Maria continued, "At the charity auction, I pretended to hack just the system that included the auction programs, but I actually sneaked into the monitoring systen of the whole guest house. Even though Octavian didn't arrive until nighttime and his images from the surveillance footage were out of focus, I am certain he was present after comparing his images via my facial recognition system."

Anthony remarked, “The headquarters of the Empire messaged Octavian. I caught sight of the texts, and after piecing the information together with what we already know, I'm sure his target is the ancient martial world. To be precise, he's aiming for the Pill Alchemist Association,

After this, the two of them exchanged smiles as they came to the same realization and said in unison, “Octavian needs an ancient martial family to introduce him to the Pill Alchemist Association."

Now, investigating all the clans in the ancient martial world was their next step. This was a lot of work to do and would take some time.

The supercomputer in front of them was made especially for top hackers. Its working efficiency and operating speed were naturally double that of an average computer.

Even with the computer working at its best, Maria was ready to stay up all night if that was what was needed to get the name of the clan Octavian was dealing with.

The computer eventually came up with the answer and brought their investigation to a close a lot sooner than they had expected.

“It's the Jenkins famil; Maria found it ridiculous and oddly amusing. Two clues were clear, one of which proved that Mrs. Jenkins had been in contact with Octavian for some time, and the other made her realize that Barbara and Octavian were having dinner together tonight.

“Oh my!" Maria couldn't help but tap the table rapidly with her right index finger.

"I can't believe they were doing this! Who could have seen it coming?"

Witnessing Maria in such a sulking state was indeed a rare sight, her cheeks puffing up.

The term “cute” hardly did justice to Maria, who typically exuded an air of cool indifference. Even Anthony found himself unaccustomed to this new facet of her.

However, at this moment, he couldn't help but wish to playfully pinch Naria's cheeks.

“Chill down, It's better to resolve this sooner rather than later, don't you think?" Anthony gently bent down and whispered in her ear.

Maria couldn't help but sense that Anthony was implying something deeper. What could his words truly signify?

Maria shivered as a sudden realization dawned on her,
