[The darkness dissipates, revealing an opening scene of a crow's reflection in the water.]

The obvious change in art style only becomes apparent when the camera angle is moved upwards.

(Huh?) x999

(The utterly unreasonable four-piece set is here!)

Amber muttered, "What a strange art style! It's different from before! And what are these otherworldly people's comments expressing astonishment? What do you mean by 'completely unreasonable'?"

Ayaka Kamisato shook her head: "There's nothing strange about it. We used chibi-style characters in our old videos! I clearly remember that back then... cough cough, never mind!"

Klee: "This is so much fun! Klee loves drawing too!"

Aberdo found the scene quite familiar; it looked like an oil painting!

[In the video, as the camera zooms out, an elderly woman sits under a large tree, holding an antique red book.]

Her actions attracted a group of scholars who gathered around, as if ready to listen to a new story!

Turning the pages, it's as if an aged narrator is slowly recounting the story.

"This world has always been this way!"

Yingmei stared intently; that's when she saw this part, and then she was asked to "subscribe to a membership"!

[The old woman's narration: "Birth" never reasons. No one's birth is done with their own consent.]

With each page turn, the image seemed to enter the world of the book, becoming clearer overall!

Yingmei and the others stared wide-eyed; it was an outline drawing of a pure white woman.

She noticed something familiar beside the woman's illusory figure, except that the cubes were white.

Before she could think about it further, the video continued.

[The old woman's narration: "Death" is never reasonable. Even if one sees the signs of impending death, no one can defy it.]

A gigantic, blood-red eye hung high in the sky, and below, a similar scene could be seen: a woman in a red dress with eerie wings on her back.

Yingmei gasped, "Hiss, what is that? An eye?!"

Mavica gripped the Heart of God, staring at the figure on the screen, and said slowly and deliberately, "If I'm not mistaken, this is the Regent of Death!"

Xinoning frowned: "Huh? How did you know?!"

Before they could finish their conversation, a barrage of spoiler comments appeared in the otherworldly comment section on the left.

(The Rule of Life - Naberiz/Golden Rheindorf)

(The Rule of Death - Ronawa)

(Flowers of life, feathers of death...)

(It's the Four Shadows... What? The Four Shadows!!! The events of the past are still chasing me.)

(Look what I see! A statue with a thousand hands and a hundred eyes! Hahaha!)

(The laws of the world, life and death, time and space, all believe I will not succeed! Hahaha...)

(Come look, everyone! There's an old man here who's watching it for the second and third time!)

. . .

Mavica@Shinoning: "See, I knew I was right! Ronawa, even Night God mentioned that name!"

Xinoning: ...

Citraly sighed, feeling a bit of a headache: "I just don't think knowing this is a good thing!"

Bennett, the honest man, scratched his head: "What are the Four Shadows?!"

Razer scratched his head: "I...don't know, I...don't have...four shadows, and wolves...nothing either!"

Paimon stared wide-eyed and exclaimed, "No, what am I seeing? What are those otherworldly people saying? Abedo, look!"

Abedo replied, still without much emotion, "Yeah, I saw Paimon, but I didn't expect... Teacher... did she succeed?!"

? Σヽ(?Д ?; )?

Paimon's brain was practically burned out. What is this? Is this your reaction?

Yingmei asked curiously, "What's going on with those otherworldly people? How come the Ruler of Life is your mother? Didn't you say that Golden Rhinedoth belonged to Kanria..."

And what makes it a success?! An experiment?!

Abedo hesitated for a moment: "...It concerns the teacher's privacy. If it were just something I told you privately, it wouldn't be a problem. But this is a live stream, so I can't really say anything... If the teacher appears again later, Traveler, you'll find out as you watch!"

Upon hearing the other party's words, Yingmei immediately understood.

Indeed, how can students casually discuss their teachers, especially in a public setting like a live stream!

But even though they didn't say it, many people noticed their conversation!

Ying's eyes were sharp, yet tinged with melancholy: "Now that both of them have appeared, then..."

Wendy exhaled: "Huh?! Just now... and such a shocking video is coming out right away?!"

A hint of doubt flickered in Zhong Li's eyes: "The official video..."

In the distant Winter Palace, the clown, who was still discussing matters with the Queen, paused in his voice when he saw the two figures appear.

He didn't intend to continue speaking.

Seated high on her majestic throne, Anastasia seemed to sense the other's unusual behavior; she too was paying attention to the live stream.

A clear, ethereal voice emanated from her lips: "No need to rush, no need to wait long. The frost will gently bring the world to its end, and bring forth a pure white rebirth."

Having received the proper reply, Piero respectfully performed the proper bow: "Her Majesty's decree has been as clear as a cold star. Our mission is to immediately transform this vision into every step we take in winter, to carry it out diligently until the very end."

Then, their conversation fell silent again in the snowy land!

. . .

Video continues

[The old woman's narration: "Time" is utterly unreasonable. Everyone is equally deprived of time, yet no one can take back even a single second.]

[The same girlish figure, with flowing blonde hair, and a huge, multi-tiered crown on her head, leans quietly against a clock face, looking as if she is fast asleep.]

[Old woman's narration: "Emptiness" never reasons. "Emptiness"... (painfully contorted)]

[The third one was initially described normally, but soon, the old woman's narration revealed a hint of pain. She suddenly looked up, and her eyes turned completely black.]

The wind is picking up~

The art style became extremely bizarre and distorted, with the old woman's body twisted like a pretzel.

The Sky Ruler stopped the golden-haired twin travelers—Ruthless—

They were torn apart, torn apart, torn apart—

The moment Yingmei saw the figure, her hair stood on end!

And then there's the narration, so full of suppressed fear...

So you're the Ruler of the Sky?!

So you're the one who upholds justice, huh? I'll remember you!!

No wonder, no wonder the live stream search results said this video was related to the laws of nature.

So you're all His generals?!

Life and death, time and space... Very good!

. . . . . .

P.S.: I wrote three chapters. I originally wanted to write 8000 words, but after checking the time, I decided to leave it at that and not stay up all night.

My writing is very poor, so feel free to criticize me if you want!

After writing for so long, I've realized that this is just a personal habit. I don't have an outline; I just write whatever comes to mind. I want to change it, but I can't. I can only try to reduce my urge to ramble on! If I could change this bad habit, maybe this book wouldn't be so bad! Maybe!

By the way, for those of you who haven't read it in a while, here's a reminder: the timeline of this book is still between April 4th and 4th 5th, shortly after the Lantern Festival. Some things haven't happened yet, such as the Servant Legend, the Twin Chapter, etc. But because of the appearance of the live stream, the traveler's plans were disrupted, and she simply chose to go to Nata ahead of schedule!

When writing a novel, it doesn't have to be a one-to-one recreation of the official story. As for what to do about the missing story elements, I know what to do! (It's not like the Traveler can't return while in Nata, right? For example, during the Lantern Festival on May 5.4th, I, the Traveler, was fighting a war while celebrating...)

Whether you can finish writing is one thing, whether you have a clear idea of ​​what you're doing is another, right?

There's one more thing!!!

I heard that Traveler is getting a new skin?

But I've already stopped buying monthly subscriptions, I don't have the money...

Hmm... My skin is in your hands now!

Tomato, you really need to give me lots of streaming! Every person you can get into this channel is a bonus!

Eh hey!
