In Douluo Continent, my summoning of Naxi Da was exposed by the heavens.

"Let's run together, shouting 'Run fast!' See you tomorrow at the end of the stage!"

The footage showed that neither those who fled nor those on stage could escape death.

"A battle of lies, a fight to the death, with teammates outside the door."

Some people walked out of the theater, for reasons unknown, including Mitis.

"We dare not hold hands, the black mist eats, eats, eats!"

The scene returns to the group photo, where people are crossed out one by one.

"The souls of our teammates reside in our hearts. A shadow descends, the cycle of reincarnation begins anew, and those who sleep in peace will never return."

The traveler dreamed of a dark figure, and Voyanisa also fell down.

"Big Eyes' Little Wish: To die beside her, so that you and I can fly to the heavens together."

Ultimately, it was the Traveler and Mitia who uncovered the truth about Arosia, the incarnation of the Ruler of Death.

"Come join us for Werewolf! At the Winter Solstice Theater, this is Death's Feast!"

Arosia, the embodiment of the ruler of death, summons a pack of dogs to attack. The Traveler and Mitia rush in as well, and the scene ends there.

Ye Lingling shivered after listening to the song.

"Why does it feel so cold? Yanzi, can you feel it?"

"It's not cold, it's eerie. The music is so cheerful, but the lyrics are so bizarre. Is this really a proper song?"

"I don't know if the song is legitimate or not, but I don't want to listen to it a second time. Being targeted by the Deathly Reign is just too terrifying."

"You're right, it really is terrifying."

On the moon, Arecino also frowned: "This Death Reign treats the lives of the Winterborn as toys to be toyed with at will."

Sandoni nodded in agreement: "That's right, mortals are just left to be played with by the gods."

Rosalind scoffed, "That's why Her Majesty the Queen must rebel!"

Then the scene unfolds again, this time showing Hakimi's version of the hilarious antics.

First was the sage Helotati of Kanria, who was accompanied by the traveler's sister.

"Your Majesty, this is the Star Traveler I brought back; she can absorb the power of the Abyss."

"Truly worthy of being the first sage of Kanria."

Clown Piero, holding the baby Paimon, also said, "Your Majesty the Black King, this is a mysterious creation I stole from Sky Island."

"That's great, she has the power to control life, death, time, and space!"

"No, none of them."

"What are her special skills?"

"He has a big appetite."

"Besides food?"

"She can sleep a lot."

"roll!"

The scene shifts, and the clown Piero takes Paimon back to his residence.

"I was thinking of offering you to the Black King to suppress the Sage, but it seems that won't work."

"Waaaaah..."

"Don't cry, don't cry, Grandpa will make you slime jelly when we get home, okay?"

"Ha ha……"

"Black King is such a tasteless guy, I'll take what he doesn't want."

The scene shifts to the moment when the Traveler and Paimon reunite with the Jester at the Winter Solstice.

"So Paimon, you're at least 500 years old."

"I have absolutely no memory of that."

"Why does the clown dote on Paimon so much?"

"Who wouldn't love such an adorable little one? And don't you think we look like grandfather and grandson?"

The final scene where the clown picks up Paimon is no longer a version of Hakimi's antics, but a refined picture, with the clown laughing heartily.

After watching it, a question mark appeared above the heads of Sandoni, Columbia, Rosalind, and Arecino.

Sandoni spoke first: "Is this the clown I know? Did he really dote on Paimon that much five hundred years ago?"

Arecino: "Probably not, after all, it's just a joke."

Columbia: "Who knows? Maybe the clown really likes Paimon."

Rosalyn: "If that's true, then Paimon should be one of us Fools, not following the Travelers."

Wait, that tenth seat that's been vacant all along, could it be...?

Sandonne: "Don't joke around, there's no way it could have been left for her."

Rosalyn: "Hard to say!"

Returning to the celestial screen.

Welcome back, let's continue.

Back on the Wayne Gore, in front of the captain's cabin, Sitella knocked on the door.

"Hello, Ms. Giordan, these guests have some questions they would like to ask."

Travelers immediately feel a sense of familiarity upon hearing the name Giordan.

Stepping into the captain's cabin, Sandoni was drinking coffee.

"Didn't I tell you to try not to bother me? Just tell them the aquarium isn't there yet..."

He only realized halfway through his sentence that it was the Traveler and Paimon.

"Sandonne! Are you...Sandonne?!"

"Huh? You...know each other?"

Sitella also didn't expect that her temporary boss would know the traveler.

"Sandonie, are you alright? Do you remember us? Your friends were all very sad after you left... Everyone... Everyone misses you so much."

Instead of answering Paimon's question, Sandonne said to Sitrali, "Miss Sitrali, would you please take that gentleman to the reception area for tea? I have something to discuss with these two visitors."

"Oh, okay, Mr. Xavier, this way please."

After Cetalli and Xavier left, Paimon cautiously asked, "Sandonie?"

"Sigh! How come I keep running into you guys everywhere?"

"Are you alright? Your core... was indeed in that battle..."

"It was ruined by that beast Dotole, that's right! But as you can see, I'm fine now, nothing serious, I don't think so..."

Sandoni looked unsure of himself.

"That's great! That's wonderful! Why didn't you tell us you were back sooner? Why didn't you come and meet your friends sooner?"

"There's actually something I've always wanted to tell you."

"Um?"

"Thank you for saving me back then."

"Huh? Don't get me wrong. I saved you back then just to complete that spell and defeat Dortore."

Ah...although he seemed to have gotten into some more trouble later on.

"But no matter what, you saved everyone."

"Alright, alright, this isn't all my doing. My brilliant mind only played a part in the plan, though I don't deny it was a crucial part."

"Hehe, I know, you've always been amazing, but how exactly did you go from... um..."

"From a pile of lifeless mechanical parts to what it is now?"

Sandonite Paimon finished speaking.

"Although I'm trying to put it more delicately, that's roughly the idea."

"Ha, where should I begin?"

The scene then shifts to Sandoni's memories.

Meanwhile, on the Douluo Continent side, Xiao Wu looked at Ning Rongrong: "Rongrong, you guessed right, it really is Miss Sandone."

"Hehe, that just means I'm still pretty smart."

Zhu Zhuqing also laughed and said, "Then you can guess how Miss Sandoni was resurrected?"

"How could I possibly guess that? I don't have a single clue."
