The seemingly ordinary object made the young man tremble with excitement. "I... I made it... It's a telescope..."

He had tried many times with the blueprint given by Nyx and finally managed to grind the crystal pieces to the right thickness and curvature, placing them in the correct position.

Nyx had said the telescope would be very useful, but hadn't explained exactly how, until he had made the finished product and tried it out for himself.

The others watched as he held up the wooden tube and put his eye to one end, his expression a mix of dazed joy and laughter. They couldn't help but wonder what he saw that made him lose composure like this.

"Let me see..."

"What? What?"

"I want to see too."

"Don't crowd. It's

my turn..."

"All-seeing Eyes. This is All-seeing Eyes..."

Everyone who looked through the telescope was deeply shocked, as though they had witnessed a miracle.

Through such an unremarkable tube, their vision was enhanced several times. They thought, 'Isn't this just like the mythical All-seeing Eyes?'

Coming back to their senses, they rushed back to their workstations with renewed energy, vowing to make even more progress on the other tasks Nyx had assigned.

The next morning, the items were delivered to Nyx, who also showed a look of surprise.

Given the limited production conditions, with no mechanical tools to assist and everything being hand-polished by the craftsmen, making a telescope was indeed a troublesome task.

She never expected the finished product to come out so quickly. And the results were even better than she had imagined.

Nyx tried the telescope and nodded in approval.

Catching Aron's curious gaze nearby, she smiled and said, "Do you want to try?"

Aron lowered his head shyly but was reluctant to refuse. He took it with both hands. "Thank you, Your Highness."

The palace eunuchs were trained to remain calm no matter what happened, never losing their composure in front of Aurelius.

As a long-time attendant to Aurelius, Aron had always maintained this principle very well.

But when he mimicked Nyx's actions and put his eye to the wooden tube, his breath caught when he clearly saw what was in front of him. He lost his composure.

The old eunuch was so shocked that the skin on his face seemed to stretch. He thought he was just seeing things due to his old age, so he rubbed his eyes and cautiously checked again, only to confirm it wasn't an illusion. "Oh my...

He stood at one end of the hall and could clearly see the carved patterns on the beams at the other end.

He spent a long time switching his eyes back and forth, reluctant to return the item. Finally, he returned the telescope, still in disbelief.

Nyx smiled as she took the telescope back and turned to the young artisan, who was eagerly awaiting feedback. She praised him sincerely and gave him a reward.

"There are a few adjustments that can be made." After the praise, she took up a pen and paper, signaling him to come closer and take a look.

Aron stood beside them in a daze, not understanding what they were saying. He only felt that the All-seeing Eyes was already so impressive. He thought, 'Could it really be improved further? How is it possible? How does the lady possess such incredible skills? It must be some divine technique.

'Could she be an immortal descended from heaven? No wonder she has such a divine appearance..... Her calm and composed demeanor is far beyond what the other two daughters of the Voss family could compare to.

The young artisan took a few steps forward and caught a whiff of a fragrant breeze as Nyx raised her hand. His face turned red, and his eyes became dazed.

Then Nyx spoke, using a string of professional technical terms. He was jolted back to reality, and his thoughts finally returned to focus.

As Nyx guided him through the process, his young face shifted from secretive daydreaming to genuine admiration.
