No. 2 saw in disbelief as he was the only Commando Mage left in the room, with the others retired to rest after they learned the truth. When he saw No.8 and this illusion of No.4 within the dimension instance, he felt that this was going to be something that he should not watch.
Even Jin who noticed that the dungeon instance had reached such a stage meant that No.8 had finally completed all the tasks regardless of the difficulty that was thrown at her. Although Jin did say that there were ten tries, those ten tries only happened if they got out of the dungeon instance.
As long as Jin leaves them alive in the dungeon instance, it would be a continuous torture for of all them.
So much so that Jin honestly believed that none of them should be able to handle such ridiculous tasking despite the amount of resilient training that had been offered to them. But he had underestimated the drive and will for No.8 to take revenge and because of that, this illusion stage of the dungeon instance might possibly be the saving grace or the road to hell for No.8.
Even No.2 who saw the scene realised it and turned to Jin, wondering if he was the devil incarnate …only to remember that he was the student of the Royal Advisor who beat all of the Commando Mages to a better shape than they could ever remember.
"I guess my job to monitor them is done?" No.2 shoots a question to Jin, asking for permission to fallout since he feels that staying to watch this would be some sort of disrespect to No.8 and her unrequited wish to have a happy life with No.4.
"Yeah, you can take a look at the other dungeon instance where your fellow comrades are fighting Parashurama, Narasimha, and Kalki simultaneously. As the new vice leader, you should take note of any weakness that your team might potentially have."
"It's fine, I can do that onsite." No.2 said as if he had enough to monitor people. Besides, he did not want Jin to give a command where he needed to look at the Lord Manor Dungeon instance once more and rather suffer the wrath of the Celestials. Honestly, the new vice leader believed the latter was an easier pill to swallow.
Jin nodded his head as he knew that he had been evading this particular responsibility when he passed it to No.2, thus heaving out a sigh while taking a peek at the scene within the Lord Manor Dungeon Instance. After which, he proceeded to check and see the progress of the dungeon instance where the Commando Mages were giving their all to fight against the Dashavatara.

No.4 said as he took a peek over No.8's shoulders to not only smell the cooking but also see her putting in the effort to prepare the breakfast. To appreciate her more, he went close to her and snuggled her from the back which No.8 pouted and told him to wait.
"Go prepare the cutleries, it will be ready in no time." No.8 said as she decided that understanding this was an illusion was not going to solve anything. "Time." She thought to herself. It was something that both of them could never ever enjoy again. But instead of facing reality, she rather let her feelings take hold of the situation and enjoy what this particular illusion could offer.
After all, she felt that resisting it would only cause more pain.
"Yes, Vice Leader of the Commando Mages." No.4 saluted her as a way to pander, making it all too real for No.8 to feel that this was just an illusion. Every move and every action that this fake No.4 was doing was exactly the same way the previous leader of the Commando Mages had acted in private with No.8. There was no difference as compared to what she had remembered.
All she could do was hold her tears back once again as she placed the potato rosti and sausages in the couple plate that the both of them ironically bought for each other for a gift exchange during their initial dates.
While the plates were of different designs, the fact that both of them bought plates for each other made it a memorable date for each other when they did not know what their partner would like.
It was initially an ordinary looking pair of plates, a task that she was tasked to perform as one of Vishnu's requests. However, for some reason when this entire manor turned into a small looking apartment, the pair of plates became a realisation of a memory of hers. Even the collection of potatoes and sausages was a task requested by Vishnu which No.8 tried to get done.
Of course, during the task, it did remind her of the times when she and No.4 would get together and farm those potatoes or buy the sausages from a nearby butcher store, it did not occur that all of these distant memories came knocking, and accumulate to this 'stage' of the dungeon instance.
It made it as if this Lord Manor Dungeon Instance was solely created just for her and only her, causing her to wonder if Jin knew and thus asked No.2 to take the rest of her comrades out of this dungeon instance.
Regardless, as she perfectly placed the finished potato rosti on the plate, it undoubtedly fluttered her heart even more. She tried to keep steady and attempted to find the salt and pepper in one of the cabinets until No.4 used his magic powers to float the two small glass shakers right in front of her face.
"Looking for this? I think you might have misplaced them again when tidying up the kitchen again. I found them near the dish washing detergents just now." No.4 teased her as No.8 grabbed the two shakers and thoroughly poured a little more at the end of one side of the potato rosti, in hopes for a little revenge.
But as things were going, it looked like No.8 might not be able to clear this 'final' stage.
