While Amelia was starting her journey of becoming stronger in Arcadia, Keith was unaware of it. After all, no matter how powerful his instincts were, as long as it wasn't directed to him and wasn't related to him, he couldn't receive any information out of thin air.
Since Amelia didn't have any thoughts against Keith for the time being, Keith didn't know about Amelia's actions. If Keith used his First Order skill and raised his Ultimate Instinct skill grade to U-grade temporarily, he might know about Amelia's situation.
But the premise was that he even had such thoughts.
It was like when a person goes to the movies to watch a war and action film. It was impossible for them to even have the thoughts of visiting the zoo afterward unless they watched a film with a nature theme instead of war and action.
The reason why Keith's Ultimate Instinct was activated before that led him to use his Eyes of Heaven to see through Amelia's actions was all due to seeing the figure of Amelia entering the dimensional gate. Keith witnessed it in front of him and it triggered him into having an instinct about it.
But since there was no way for him to guess out of thin air that Amelia was planning something big in Arcadia, Keith was clueless even if he raised his Ultimate Instinct skill to U-grade temporarily.
The reason why a person could instinctively feel danger was due to the danger being directed toward them. The same logic applied when a person felt that he was being observed or watched by other people secretly.
If any of those happened to Keith, his Ultimate Instinct could easily detect it and he would even know the identity of the people that targeted him or the cause of upcoming incidents that involved him.
But since Amelia's plans of becoming stronger in Arcadia didn't implicate Keith at the moment, Keith didn't know about it.
To be exact, Amelia knew about Keith's absurd instincts since she was a reader of the End Note novel. Because of that, her countermeasure against Keith's instincts was to not involve Keith in her plans until she was powerful enough to prevent Keith from interfering with her plans.
That was why Amelia had focused on becoming stronger rather than dealing with or taking revenge against Keith. Not to mention, as the reader of the End Note novel, Amelia was well aware of the consequences of the world losing the protagonist.
Becoming the protagonist wasn't an easy task to fulfill. Not only were they magnets for trouble, but they also had the responsibility of either saving the world or destroying it. Furthermore, they were linked to fate and it was difficult to get rid of fate's machinations.
Only by becoming a Universe Realm Semi-Supreme Being could a person break free from the machinations of fate. After all, those in that realm of power could easily destroy a universe and since fate was mostly the will of the universe, destroying the universe was tantamount to destroying the will of the universe.
And if the will of the universe was destroyed, then fate would also be destroyed. If fate was destroyed, then the machinations of fate would come to a halt and the protagonists would no longer have to suffer from the machinations of fate.
So from Amelia's perspective, the reason why she didn't antagonize Keith and even attempted to kill him was due to Keith's usefulness of being her meat shield against fate's machinations.
Although she was outside fate's machinations since she was an anomaly, that didn't stop fate from intervening in the life of an anomaly and causing trouble for that anomaly. The only perk of an anomaly was that they were unpredictable since their future and fate weren't set in stone.
It was almost impossible to see the future of an anomaly such as Amelia. Even if one managed to see a glimpse of an anomaly's future, the chances of it being inaccurate were high. When it came to dealing with anomalies, the mindset of "nothing is absolute" should be kept in mind.
At least, that was what Amelia had found out when she read the novels of ShadowKatake as well as received clarification and confirmation from him.
Even becoming a Universe Realm powerhouse wasn't enough to completely escape fate's machination. It was only enough to escape from the machinations of fate that was within the scope of the universe.
If it was at the level of the multiverse or even the entire infinite realities, only the will of the infinite realities as well as Katake were outside the machinations of fate. After all, as the embodiment of the infinite realities as well as being fate itself, it was impossible for the will of the infinite realities to be within the machinations of itself.
As for Katake, he was a powerful existence that surpassed even the will of the infinite realities. And since fate itself was part of the will of the infinite realities, then only Katake was powerful enough to be above fate itself and was naturally excluded from the machinations of fate.
But considering how difficult it was to surpass the power of the will of the infinite realities and reach Katake's realm of power, Amelia no longer cared much about whether all of her actions were within the machinations of fate as long as she was enjoying her actions and she still had free will.
With her current knowledge, Amelia knew of two ways how to free herself from the machinations of fate.
The first method was to surpass the will of the infinite realities since doing that was also surpassing fate itself. But the difficulty of achieving that was not needed to be emphasized due to how difficult it was.
The second method that was the easiest but still difficult to achieve was none other than asking a person outside the machinations of fate to help her break free from the machinations of fate.
Since Katake was the only one above fate, then Amelia knew that she needed Katake's assistance if she wanted to break free from the machinations of fate as well. But since she already owed Katake too much, Amelia never bothered on asking Katake about it before her transmigration since she was already satisfied with how things were.
And Amelia believed that if she suffered from unfair events due to the machinations of fate, it was unlikely that Katake won't interfere and help her. From her understanding of Katake's personality, he was someone who didn't care much about helping others since he had the power to do so.
That's the reason why Katake didn't ask her to do anything for him in return for the second chance in life that she obtained from him. For someone as powerful as Katake, giving powers and cheats was like giving candies and he did that just because he could.
Amelia even guessed that perhaps, the creation of the Katake Omniverse was just to serve as entertainment for Katake. Well, not that it mattered to her since in her opinion, Katake was better than other Supreme Beings since even if he was powerful, the entire infinite realities weren't suffering under his ruling.
In fact, the evil Supreme Beings that had caused destruction in the infinite realities were dealt with by Katake. Amelia had known about that since Katake had told her about that. She knew that Katake didn't have a reason to lie to her since he wouldn't gain anything from it and because of that, Amelia didn't doubt any words that Katake had told her.
ραпdα---nᴏνa| сom She knew that with his power, deceiving her was pointless since he could easily use his power to brainwash her. Even the will of the infinite realities would be powerless if Katake decided to brainwash it let alone Amelia who was weaker than it.
Amelia knew how difficult it was to reach Katake's realm of power so she didn't have any great ambition of surpassing him when she was given a second chance in life and transmigrated into the End Note novel.
She was already satisfied with how things went and her goal for the time being was to marry her husbando and reach Universe Realm Peak Stage. Becoming a Supreme Being wasn't that appealing to her since the Katake Multiverse could also be considered a sanctuary that protected its inhabitants from other Supreme Beings.
Amelia had realized how weak she was but she didn't mind. Even if she became stronger, there was no point if she could never become as strong as the top 10 Absolute Beings in the entire infinite realities. If she doesn't reach their realm of power, then her efforts of becoming stronger would be wasted considering the difference between an Absolute Being and a Supreme Being was like heaven and earth.
Due to that, Amelia focused on achieving her goals as soon as she transmigrated into her favorite novel instead of having the ambition of becoming the strongest. She realized that there was no point in becoming the strongest if she would lose the opportunity to achieve her life's most valuable goals and desires.
