Number 404 couldn't understand, so he just stood there without speaking.
Akam glanced at him, "With you like this, when can I hand over the captain's position to you?"
...
One day later.
On the way back.
Louis and his group were traveling by carriage.
"Huh? You mean that Akam might have already recognized your identity?"
The little swan widened her eyes and looked at Louis:
"How is that possible? Your [Mask of Greed] comes with its own mental inducement."
"All personnel related to you, unless someone specifically exposes you, it's almost impossible to discover your true face."
By the riverside, Louis removed his helmet and washed his face, saying:
"The mental distortion of the Mask of Greed is perfect, but that doesn't mean it can't be broken."
"Because I've been in contact with Chloe, the assassination unit has undoubtedly investigated my identity inside and out."
"Of course, because of the mental distortion from the Mask of Greed, they won't find anything."
He had previously cooperated with the royal side to conduct experiments on the mental distortion effect of the [Mask of Greed].
Undoubtedly, this large-scale mental distortion, which diverted the attention of everyone trying to focus on his true self, seemed limitless in capability.
Whether ordinary civilians or legends like Ense, or even demigods, it seems that regardless of their strength, they would be affected by this mental distortion effect.
This arbitrary manipulation of others' wills is truly a bit terrifying.
But even the most perfect ability has flaws.
The flaw does not appear in the mental distortion but in special individuals.
If there is an existence very clear about what should and shouldn't be done, extremely cautious, capable of keenly spotting the oddities among those around them, and has enough intelligence support—
Then they have a certain probability to break free from the influence of the [Mask of Greed].
The [Mask of Greed] is not mind control.
If it were mind control, it could completely influence Akam's subordinates' tone and habits, recreating a complete set of logic and ultimately deceiving Akam utterly.
But clearly, the capability of the [Mask of Greed] is not that unsolvable.
At the highest level of Ense, regardless of whether it's Caesar or the true nature of Mayer, this identity is undisguisable to those existences.
Louis had already prepared to let some parts of the Greed Authority's abilities be known by others.
After all... ever since he resolved the guillotine crisis, the mental influence capability of the Mask of Greed had already fulfilled its historical mission for him.
Because the option of "running away with my big wife and little sister-in-law with a second identity" has already been abandoned.
So as long as the [Mask of Greed] can conceal from most ordinary people and middle layers, it's enough.
It's been completely enough for him to accomplish daily needs.
After all, the true core of this skill lies in the enhancement under profession fusion.
"There are indeed countless talents in this world."
The little swan looked at him curiously:
"Are you so confident that he has definitely seen through your disguise?"
Louis looked out the carriage window.
In a future diary from some past occasion, it mentioned that Akam from the Lokeshi Empire's assassination unit once broke through the limits of mental distortion by relying on powerful self-awareness and logical instincts.
He might not have known at first what exactly in his memory was distorted.
But he would notice that his memory had been tampered with and finally peep at the real culprit from the clues, finding him out.
In that IF line, what was exposed was not Caesar's true identity, but Mayer's true identity.
Because at that time the Mayer Commerce Association wanted to push for Lokeshi to join the industry chain, it was investigated by the assassination unit.
But just as he could deduce the truth from the clues, Louis could also deduce Akam's investigation on him.
He curved his lips into a mysterious smile:
"That's great, if he doesn't discover my true identity, how would he fall into my trap?"
Being discovered doesn't matter, just utilize the discovered flaw.
"Akam, you must utilize your excellent intelligence advantage!"
The little swan looked at the smile on Louis's lips and thought silently to herself:
"Is this country-wrecker guy starting to plot against people again?!"
