After dropping me off, Su Chen gave me a reminder, "Remember, you are a famous person now and there will be many people trying to get information about you. You have to be careful."

I was surprised to hear this, but thinking about what Elementia had arranged for me this afternoon…

Once the articles were published, there was no doubt that there would be people that would become even more interested in me.

Until this period of fame died down or there was something else that replaced it, it was unlikely that they would leave me alone.

So I gave a nod to Su Chen in response before saying, "I'll be careful."

Su Chen gave a silent nod in response, but I could see the worried look that was in his eyes.

In the end, he drove off and I stood there alone.

I couldn't help looking around for a bit before heading up to my apartment.

But the moment that I entered my apartment, I couldn't help feeling that there was something off about this place.

I couldn't tell exactly what was different about this place, but it felt like something was different about my house.

It was only when I saw Lilith just lying there on the coffee table that I realized what it was.

I had left her at home during this period because there was no need to bring her around with me all the time. During that time that she was left alone at home, she walked around freely since there was nothing that stopped her from doing so.

The fact that she was suddenly lying on the table acting like a doll meant that there was something inside of my house.

"Is anyone there?" I asked in a calm voice, but there was no response.

I knew that there wouldn't be a response since there was no reason for whoever was hiding in the house to actually respond to me.

That was when I suddenly activated the Time Stop ability.

There were other things that I could have done, but the Time Stop ability was the easiest way to deal with this.

After using the Time Stop ability, I grabbed Lilith and released the ability on her.

Since she was the one that gave me the system, that meant that I was able to freely release her from the Time Stop ability when I wanted.

As soon as she was released, she stood up on my hand and said, "What did you do outside that there's people wanting to kill you?"

"Kill me?" I asked in a confused voice.

With a nod, she pointed at the bedroom and said, "In the closet, there's an assassin hiding there."

"Assassin? Are you sure that it's an assassin?" I asked in a surprised voice.

With another nod, she said, "What else could it be?" Then after a pause, she said, "Though it's certainly a strange weapon that they're using. It doesn't seem to be some kind of conventional weapon, rather it even looks like a camera."

"Camera?" I repeated before heading over to the closet that she pointed at.

When I opened it and saw the person inside, I knew what she was talking about and a bitter smile appeared on my lips as I said, "It's not an assassin. It's a paparazzi."

"Paparazzi?" This time, it was Lilith's turn to be confused.

It wasn't that she didn't understand this word, it was just that she didn't think that it was related to this situation.

But in the end, I just showed her what the weapon that she referred to was.

It was a camera, but it was a special kind of modified camera.

This was a camera that would even work in the dungeons, which meant that it had a special mana related modification to it. This was why it felt like it was some sort of weapon instead of what it really was.

After seeing this, it seemed like Lilith was embarrassed with the way that she looked at the paparazzi hiding in the closet.

But I said, "We can't do anything to them or else they'll be suspicious of us."

She didn't say anything at first, but eventually she gave a slow nod of agreement.

Though it seemed like there really was something else that she wanted to do.

Still, since she agreed to not do anything to this person, that was already enough.

All that was left was to figure out what to do with them.

After thinking about it, I went over to get some rope out of another closet.

This was a rope that I had bought because I thought I would need to use it in the dungeon, so it certainly wasn't the way that I expected to use this rope. Thɪs chapter is updated by novel-fire.net

But at least it was being used.

After tying this person up and making sure that they wouldn't be able to escape, I released the Time Stop.

"What is going on?" The paparazzi said in a shocked voice when he found that he was completely tied up.

I appeared behind him to say, "What do you think was going to happen if you snuck into the home of someone like me?"

A bitter smile appeared on the face of the paparazzi as he tried to weigh his options.

In the end, he said, "How about you just let me go? Someone as famous as you probably doesn't want any bad press like this, right?"

"I think it's on the contrary, this kind of bad press can be good too." I said with a faint smile.

The bitter smile on the paparazzi's face became even more bitter when he heard this before he tried to beg me to let him go.

But in the end, I just ignored him as I went to make a call.

I didn't call the police like a normal person since I knew that I wasn't a normal person.

Instead, I called Su Chen and said, "So it seems like there's a problem."
