Then, after that, Fennec's voice started appearing in Eddie's videos. Later, it showed half of her gentle face.
His viewers were going crazy.
"I'm here to watch the fox, not to be reminded I'm single."
"Just announce the relationship already. I'm tired of the easter eggs."

Back in Seastone of the original world, the first episode of Sixth Sense Season Two had concluded. Although it didn't reach the heights of Season One, it remained occupying the top trending topics online.
Shannon no longer tuned in to the livestream. To prove that Maya had used dark arts techniques to swap her face, she planned to head to Arenvale and locate the girl whose face had been stolen.
Maya had had her powers sealed by the Special Security Headquarters and was expelled from the mystic arts community. Without concrete evidence, Shannon couldn't just rely on her intuition to accuse a stranger of being Maya.
However, the Special Security Agency didn't completely dismiss her suspicions. They allowed her to act in the name of the headquarters, giving her the authority to investigate further.
She had even asked Skylar to join her. Luckily, he was free because they were all on winter break.
As Shannon prepared to head out with her luggage, she found a tortoise inside one of her shoes.
"Bring me along! I was your good little one when you needed me. Now that you've found your mommy, you don't even care about me anymore.
"Not only did you not shift me into a new host body, but you even allowed that stupid turtle to bully me! It bites me whenever it sees me now! I don't care—you're bringing me on this trip!"
The system's constant accusations kept flooding in, relentless and unyielding, and Shannon stooped to pick it up. "Didn't I tell Thomas to keep it inside a glass box already?"
The system was silent. She stared at it and asked, "Did you or did you not provoke it by climbing onto the glass box?"
Zane's hand paused briefly as he was sketching. Thalia looked up and asked, "What friend?"
Naturally, Alex wouldn't adopt the same authoritative demeanor he used with Zane to Thalia. He explained, "I have a friend in the industry who's an artist. I've shown him Zane's work, and he thought he had talent.
"If we could freshen up his image and go in that direction, it could benefit his future development."
Alex believed that his arrangement this time was quite thoughtful. Adam often said that he wasn't caring enough about Zane, so he felt he had genuinely put some thought into him this time.
He believed it was the right time for Zane to focus on his career now that his health had improved.
Since he couldn't be of much help with the business side of things, he thought Zane could develop his career in the arts, just like him. With some fame, it would reflect well on his own reputation too, wouldn't it?
He thought he had a great plan, yet to his surprise, Zane placed his pencil down, took his phone, and immediately replied, "I'm not going."
