Collapse Iron: My Past Life Revealed, I Was Everyone's White Moonlight

ended?

That's it... over?

A once glorious empire was reduced to ashes in a revenge war ignited by lies.

An empress who protected her country during the war fell into a deep sleep after destroying the country she once protected in order to seek revenge.

A gentle man, who gave his all to protect the two most important people in his life, eventually fell into eternal sleep in solitude.

An innocent girl, after losing everything, puts on a cold mask and transforms into an emotionless weapon, flying towards a battlefield with no future.

This... is the ending?

I cannot accept this!

It's unclear who started it, but an angry roar shattered the deathly silence.

Immediately following, as if in a chain reaction, countless cries, curses, and wails erupted like a tsunami in every corner of the universe.

No!!! I can't accept this! I can't accept this ending!!!

[Sky Curtain! I'll kill you! Give me back Sam! Give me back Lu Li, the God of War and the embodiment of pure love!]

Why... why is it another tragedy... can't they just have a happy ending... sob sob sob...

My firefly...in the end...she was still alone...

[Liars! They're all liars! Tianmu is a liar! Sam is a liar too! Waaaaah...]

The comments section went completely crazy.

They would rather see a spectacular destruction than witness the desolation of being slowly eroded and dried up by time in endless loneliness and despair.

Luofu, Changletian.

"Waaah...waaah—"

"Sam, fireflies..."

"Waaaaah... This is too much... How could they do this..."

On March 7th, unable to hold back any longer, she hugged Xing's arm and burst into tears.

She cried so hard she could barely breathe, and could only lean on Xing, whose eyes were also red.

Xingye silently shed tears, patting March 7's back repeatedly to comfort her with a sorrowful expression.

Walter closed his eyes and let out a heavy sigh.

"So... this is the truth behind the birth of 'Star Core Hunter Sam'."

He finally understood.

Why is the Star Core Hunter piloting the mech named "Sam"?

Because... that name originally belonged to another gentle man.

The girl simply wore his mask and inherited his name.

She was once... just an ordinary girl who longed for the sky and freedom.

How tragic.

And yet, how heartbreaking...

Fu Xuan and Ting Yun remained silent, their expressions complex as they gazed at the now pitch-black sky.

The atmosphere under the roof remained heavy.

Kafka, Kagami, and Bai Heng's gazes were still fixed on the sky, each immersed in their own complex emotions.

really.

It's happening again...

Kafka remembered the black-clad man from Ten'i Five who, in order to cure her "illness," was willing to fight against the messenger who had destroyed a planet.

Jingliu remembered the man who smiled and opened his arms in the Lin Yuan Realm, using his own life to awaken her from her descent into demonic darkness.

Bai Heng remembered the companion who stood in front of her at the last moment of the battle and told her that he would stay with her.

Lu Li, oh Lu Li.

You're always like this.

It's always this kind of... stubborn protection that doesn't care about right or wrong, or the consequences.

They even disregarded their wishes.

Even if it plunges them into darkness and causes them a lifetime of suffering...

But that's precisely why...

They secretly glanced at Lu Li beside them, their possessiveness and certainty intensifying.

They... would never admit their mistake.

No matter how many "past lives" he has.

Regardless of whether he has previous memories, the essence of him will never change.

So.

This time, they absolutely must... only him.

They don't want to give it up to anyone!

but……

Kafka looked back at the sky, a subtle, complex emotion flashing in her purple eyes.

Firefly was one of the Star Core Hunters she recruited.

And whenever she sees her, she always remembers the scene she witnessed when she first met her.

In a "river of death" composed of mechs, swarms of insects, and meteorite debris.

Like Sleeping Beauty with her eyes closed, or like a firefly in the dark radiating light.

A girl wandering alone among them...

She didn't know about Liuying's past, but she knew that Liuying no longer had a home.

Just like... my past self.

Therefore, she felt sorry for her and took good care of her.

She also knew that Liu Ying's power came at the cost of her life.

But what she didn't expect was that... Firefly was just like her.

He sacrificed himself to light up her life...

First it was her, then Jingliu and Baiheng.

And now, fireflies...

More than jealousy.

For some reason, she felt more resentment than anything else.

And a hint of... fear.

Why?

Why does he always go to such lengths for others?

She remembered that rainy night, the man who held an umbrella for her and draped a trench coat over her shoulders.

She remembered the man who clumsily cooked for her in the kitchen.

I remembered the witcher who, in a life-or-death situation, chose to die so that she could experience "fear"...

Kafka's hands unconsciously clenched.

She looked at Lu Li, who was lost in thought because of the sky, and her eyes grew increasingly dangerous.

Ah Li...

When all of this is over.

I must keep you... firmly by my side.

I will never let you do anything for another woman again.

Lu Li, who was finally relieved that the third act had ended, was obviously unaware of the "dangerous" gazes of the three people beside him.

The performance is over, finally over.

This damn third act is finally over.

Although the process was tortuous, the ending was tragic... uh.

Well, at least it's all in the past now.

All he wanted to do was find a place to lie down and get a good night's sleep, forgetting all the mess that had happened that day.

however.

Just as he was thinking this...

suddenly.

"Buzz—"

The sky, which had just darkened, suddenly lit up again without warning!

The blinding golden light instantly illuminated everyone's astonished faces.

The sky... has brightened again?

This sudden turn of events stunned everyone.

Whether it was the crowd watching from Changle Heaven or the viewers on the interstellar network still weeping for the tragedy.

At this moment, everyone seemed to have been put on pause, staring in astonishment at the golden light screen that had lit up again.

What's going on?

Wasn't it already "over"?

Could it be... there's more to come?

It can't be that the third act just ended and the fourth act immediately followed, right?

Under the roof.

Kafka, Kagami, and Bai Heng all paused for a moment, subconsciously looking up at the sky.

Lu Li was completely dumbfounded.

He stared blankly at the golden light, his mind momentarily blank.

Holy crap, system.

This just ended, what are you going to do?
