I'll kill you after I finish this game!

Otto was somewhat uncertain about Mary's affectionate attitude towards him and her use of single words to address him by his name.

However, the fact that she could be associated with Mary, who was born a god of seeking the Way and also carried an extremely terrifying decapitation curse, proves that she herself is not ordinary.

Many astute viewers had similar questions to Otto's, but the video continued, revealing some intriguing secrets.

Mary listened to the man, Reiji, and a slightly confused expression appeared on her face. She said:

"An indispensable person in each other's lives? Titi said that's a level that can only be reached when there's love between two people. Zhe, do you think I can get someone who loves me?"

"So, you mean to ask if there are people who can be beheaded and not die?" Without answering directly, Rei Zhe simply chuckled and replied, "If that's the case, the answer is already there."

"Well......"

Mary raised her hand to her chest. Fujii Ren had been beheaded here every day since she made contact with him.

Skadi, who came before Ren Fujii, was the same way. Although she was not used to it at first, she got used to it after establishing a connection and communication with Mary.

"Is this what it means to be your other half? I love you, Mary, and sincerely hope you can be happy, but my love is different from Cagliostro's wholehearted devotion."

Rezhe picked up the black tea on the table, took a small sip, and looked at the girl in front of him with a look of doting affection and blessing on his face, which could only be seen by Mary in the shadows under the white hood.

You deserve happiness. If someone like you can't be happy, then the world itself is flawed and unnecessary.

If you love others, you absolutely deserve to be loved.

Mary couldn't understand the true meaning behind Rezer's eyes and expression, but she felt absolutely no dislike or rejection towards him; on the contrary, she liked him very much.

"I know, I've learned a lot from Titi. Although I don't understand it all, there are many kinds of love."

Mary didn't have much contact with men, except for Reiji and Carl, and Rosh from Skadi.

So she blinked her curious, bright green eyes and looked at Lei Zhe, asking:

"Zhe, do you also have 'love,' which is indispensable in your life?"

"Oh dear, you've suddenly shifted the topic to me. It's a bit out of place to tell my story right now," Lei Zhe said with a wry smile, shaking his head helplessly.

"Can't...you tell me?"

Mary stared at Razer with her large emerald green eyes. There was no malicious intent in her attempt to be cute; she was simply expressing, in a genuine and tactful way, whether her words had crossed the line.

"how come."

Rezhe shook his head at Mary's meaning and looked at her, saying, "Among all my friends so far, you are the one I feel qualified to confide in and share my troubles with."

"So happy."

Mary's face broke into a big smile, which was both heartwarming and adorable, and she expressed her feelings directly.

Many male and female viewers were drawn to her; Mary's purity and warmth could positively influence anyone who wasn't beyond redemption.

Even Narcida, the Little Auspicious Grass King in the Land of Teyvat, felt that Mary was a being of the sun level.

However, the other person seems to be similar to himself, unexpectedly pure in some ways.

The secrets revealed in the conversation between the two parties in the video also piqued her curiosity, as she had little to do all day.

"Love is an indispensable part of my life, and it is because of it that I am who I am today."

"Today's...self?"

Mary tilted her head, slightly puzzled by what Rezhe meant.

Rezer looked at Mary with a nostalgic and thoughtful expression and said, "You could say that important experiences in the past have shaped who you are today, just like the changes that occurred when you met Skadi and traveled together. As you influenced each other, you also became a different person from the past."

Mary nodded thoughtfully, indicating that she understood somewhat. If she hadn't met Skadi and hadn't had those past experiences, she wouldn't be who she is today.

Skadi was like that in the past, and so is Ren Fujii now.

She herself was being painted with the colors of those around her, and Mary accepted it all.

“Speaking of which, my beloved and you, Mary, share many similarities in some ways.” Looking at Mary in front of him, Rezhe stroked his chin and suddenly laughed.

Are there many similarities?

Her fair and delicate arms were draped over the table, her hands supporting her chin like an innocent and carefree young girl, her eyes sparkling as she watched her friend tell her a story that piqued her curiosity.

Rezer was also one of the most important people in her life. The person he spoke of and loved had a lot in common with her, so Mary was very curious.

The audience also perked up their ears, noticing several similarities between the man and Mary, and judging from the man's gentle, smiling tone, he was someone the other person admired and cherished.

"She, like your extraordinary birth, is someone who brings misfortune and death to ordinary people, and is also someone who is born with exceptional talent."

Mary didn't react to these words. Having lived with Skadi for a long time, she had already accepted everything in her life up to this point.

Like Cagliostro, Reiji knew and accepted everything about Marie.

Lei Zhe's words only aroused the girl's curiosity, making her want to understand, and there were no other negative emotions.

And so do the audience, since the person the man mentioned, like Mary, is someone who brings misfortune and death to mortals.

Moreover, there is another person who was born with exceptional talent. Although he only spoke about it as a man and did not appear on screen, it was enough to make some viewers lament the injustice of the world. Being born at the top is indeed something to be envied.

“Unlike you, who were French in your previous life, she was a being from the realm of the dead, and her race was from the underworld.”

"People from the underworld?"

Mary repeated the phrase, implying that the other party was a race that lived in the land of the dead.

"Yes, people from the underworld, the race from the realm of the dead that you're thinking of."

With a gentle smile, Rezer looked at the decapitation mark on Mary's neck and said in a somewhat complicated tone:

"The reason I say you two are similar is that you both have some similarities in terms of uncontrollable power. She was born with the power to rewrite the rules and laws of the world at will, and she can even actively influence fate. As long as she speaks, she can set the world like a computer and make it the way she wants it to be. For example, she can make one plus one not equal two, or bring dead lives back to life. She can do it as long as she speaks."

"Because immense power can be influenced by unconscious emotions, her power is far more destructive than your direct beheading. Everyone has their own destiny and fate, and her power can unconsciously influence and distort the fate of others."

"For example, a person who would have lived to be a hundred years old may die an accidental death the next moment; a person who would have been at the pinnacle of wealth and power may become a beggar tomorrow."

Countless viewers twitched at the corners of their mouths as they listened. Damn, this guy is indeed just as ruthless as Mary.

Speaking out can rewrite the rules and laws of the entire world; the whole world can be set and rewritten at will, just like a computer.

Moreover, its power is so great that it unconsciously influences the fate of those around it, causing the originally predetermined destinies of countless beings to become chaotic.

People who were destined to live to a ripe old age suddenly die a violent death; people who were destined to be winners in life become losers.

Thinking about it this way, it is indeed much worse than simply beheading Mary.

However, many people are also envious of the role of its abilities.

"...It can rewrite the rules and laws of the world at will, and even the dead can be reversed and resurrected, as expected!!!"

Otto's eyes blazed with an incredibly terrifying heat; he had indeed guessed correctly that the power of that world possessed that kind of heaven-defying strength.

Mary is a miracle among miracles, an innate and unparalleled being.

The same applies to the existence described by this man.

The resurrection of the dead is probably not an extremely difficult task for them.

"If...such power existed..."

On the continent of Teyvat, there are those who harbor improper thoughts towards the dead, such as Rosalind, the lady among the Fools, and Ray the Movie, who sits cross-legged in meditation in the Pure Land.

They yearned for such power to undo the unbearable regrets in their lives.

If it can actively influence even fate, and rewrite the rules and laws of the world with a single word, then what kind of terrifying power is it?

Wanting to know and wanting to learn more, I kept my eyes glued to the scenes in the video.

"...And what happened to her after that?"

Mary, feeling a sense of resonance, asked in return with curiosity.

She did agree with what Rezer had said earlier; there were indeed significant similarities in some aspects.

Once her curiosity was piqued, Mary wanted to know more.

"She is as kind as you. Although she was born to live with death, she understands the preciousness of life better than anyone else. In order not to hurt others, she sealed her emotions and did not allow herself to have emotional fluctuations or activate the power of her unconscious."

"When I first met her, I also thought she was a bit of a nuisance."

Thinking back to when he was still weak, and in order to temporarily avoid unnecessary trouble, Lei Zhe now feels that if he had missed You, she probably wouldn't be where she is today.

So after being with him, he felt incredibly lucky and happy, he said with a smile:

"But after I got to know her, that was when I fell in love with her. At that time, I felt that people who hindered her from pursuing her already small and peaceful life were more troublesome and inconvenient. After falling in love with her uncontrollably, I even wanted to destroy everything that was hostile to her."

“Zhe…extreme?” Mary looked at Lei Zhe with some doubt. She had only ever seen Lei Zhe being gentle and doting on her, and had never seen him being extreme and throwing a tantrum.

"Don't look at me like that, Mary."

Reiz shrugged helplessly, looking at Mary with a hint of resignation in his eyes, and said:

“I’m unlikely to lose my temper with you either, and Cagliostro is just as extreme as I am. We reserve our gentleness for those we cherish, and our cruelty and prejudice for our enemies and those who might get in our way.”

"Well......"

Mary sobbed and mumbled something, her mind replaying Cagliostro's ever-present smile and Rezé's unwavering care and attentiveness.

It's really hard to imagine, and I can't connect it to their obsessive and extreme nature.

Perhaps, as Rezé said, they reserved their gentleness for Mary, and their cruelty and extremes for their enemies and those who might get in their way.

“California and I are friends, and I will help him with what he wants to do, because what he wants to do is not much different from what I am doing now. Just as I don’t want my loved ones to suffer alone, Cagliostro doesn’t want you to live a life devoid of human emotions because of a birth curse. So we want to… break the bondage.”

Whether it's the self-destructive factor perfect paradox binding Lei Zhe and Xiao You.

Whether the Mercury Serpent itself is aware of the cyclical constraints, or whether the goddess, whom it loves with all its heart and soul, will be subject to the predetermined 'replacement' of the throne.

They wanted to destroy these things, to reach the realm and destiny they desired.

The mercury serpent is determined to find a way even if it has to go through cycles of reincarnation to the very end.

Lei Zhe cannot allow himself to fail to achieve a perfect ending, nor can he allow his beloved to suffer because of some self-destructive factor. Therefore, he has an even more impulsive desire that is constantly growing.

Skadi was born from Reiji's belief in 'transcendence', and the divination result was chaos.

So, besides his own relentless efforts, he also had high expectations for Skadi.
