[Black Swan: ...Thank you for your trust, but I don't believe in myself.]
[Dahlia: "I believe in you," what a weighty statement, truly a gifted player like Yiting!]
[Fireworks: Oh dear, Black Swan, stop struggling. You can't escape anyway, so just cooperate and maybe you'll at least have a whole corpse~]
[Fireworks: Black Swan, just accept your fate~]
[March 7th: It will be alright, it will be alright! Stay strong, Ms. Black Swan! I believe in you!]
[Star: I believe in you too!]
[Black Swan: Thank you, but I need you to call an ambulance for me more.]
[Topa: The company's medical business; inquiries are welcome.]
Black Swan: ......
After Jiang Jiu's repeated assurances and promises, Black Swan clearly hesitated.
Since we can't escape anyway, we might as well take a gamble...
After all, the promise of a genius is quite credible.
"Then..." she began tentatively, "what would happen if I failed?"
Jiang Jiu was silent for two seconds, then he said, "You will not fail."
"I mean, in case..."
"There's no 'what if'."
Confidence makes black swans feel at ease.
I peacefully thought I could just fall asleep forever.
She took a deep breath and changed her approach: "Your Excellency, since you want me to relive your memories, you must tell me what you want to see, so I can be prepared."
Jiang Jiu thought about it and felt that what she said made sense.
"The Immortal Ship," he said, "the period before and after the War of the Gods."
The black swan was stunned.
"God...war?"
“Hmm.” Jiang Jiu nodded. “The hunt for the Immortal Ship by the Universe, plus the later destruction and the battle between Harmony and the Hunt, if possible, please focus on recreating Amber King’s hammer blow.”
Black Swan: "???"
[Black Swan: Family, if I really see this, will I still be alive to see tomorrow's sun?]
[Fireworks: You've gone too far this time. These three wishes are really going to be difficult to fulfill.]
After Jiang Jiu briefly explained what the "God War" was, Black Swan hesitated and looked down at her hands, both hesitant and expectant.
Her innermost thoughts were even clearly projected from the sky.
"That must have been a truly grand scene... a war of gods..."
"Ordinary people may never even see a star god in their entire lives... that's a battle between gods..."
"And then there's the Amber King's hammer blow..."
"I want to see it, I really want to see it... No, I can't see it... But I really want to see it... No, I'll definitely die... No, what if I don't? If I miss such a wonderful memory, I might never see it again... No, I might not survive..."
"Just one look, just..."
[Black Swan: ...My damn curiosity.]
[March 7th: Hahahaha, this is hilarious! Is the Black Swan woman having a debate in her head? I want to watch but I'm too scared to, and I want to watch even though I'm scared!]
[Star: Hesitation leads to defeat, decisiveness leads to surrender!]
[Fireworks: So conflicted, so conflicted! Is the Black Swan woman fighting with herself? Is it over? Who won?]
[Silver Wolf: Is that even a question? Her damned curiosity definitely won.]
[Black Swan: Can you please stop looking into my head?! This is very private! What about your professional ethics?!]
[Dahlia: You're talking to us about professional ethics? Your current job is "a Memory Person captured by the Star God to work for you," you have no right to privacy.]
[Black Swan: I'm filing for labor arbitration!]
[Dahlia: Where is the arbitration tribunal? The Memory Court has been demolished.]
Emerald leaned back in her chair, staring at the Black Swan's conflicted inner monologue on the screen, a slight smile curving her lips.
[Jade: Curiosity is the original sin, but also the driving force behind all progress. The Black Swan's struggle at this moment is essentially a battle between a memory seeker's instinctive thirst for memories and their survival instinct.]
[Topa: So who won?]
[Jade: Currently, her survival instinct is taking the lead, but her curiosity is making a comeback.]
[Gold Sand: I bet 100 million credits that she'll eventually agree.]
[Topa: Can you please stop gambling on everything?]
[Gold Placer: Enough talk, are you in or not?]
[Topa: I went ahead with her, but I bet she didn't want to.]
[Opal: My focus is... is there still a chance we'll see the Amber King's hammer blow along this storyline?]
[Cang Gang: I suddenly don't want the Immortal Ship to be pragmatic anymore.]
[Cang Gang: I'd rather go head-to-head with Jiang Jiu and replicate his miracle!]
In the image, the black swan hesitates and struggles for a long time before finally deciding to leave everything to the tarot cards of fate.
She took a deep breath, took out the tarot cards in her hand, and began her initial preparations very seriously.
She silently repeated something to herself a few times, then drew three cards from the deck. After a pause, she turned over the first card.
She was stunned for a moment when she saw it.
...The Grim Reaper?
[Black Swan: This is a bad start; I have a bad feeling about it...]
In the scene, the black swan hesitated for a moment, then raised her hand and turned over the second card.
"..."
A tall tower.
The black swan gritted its teeth, and although it felt there was little chance of a turnaround, it still revealed the third card.
Sword Ten.

The black swan's heart is half dead.
The upright Death, the Tower, and the Ten of Swords.
None of the three cards have auspicious meanings.
She raised her head, hesitated for a long time before looking at Jiang Jiu, her eyes filled with the last glimmer of hope: "Your Excellency, are you... are you sure... you really will protect me?"
Seeing the Black Swan repeatedly seeking confirmation, Jiang Jiu glanced at the tarot cards in confusion: "What? Is there something wrong with the cards? A dead end?"
Black Swan took a deep breath and tried to keep her voice steady.
“The Grim Reaper upright…” she pointed to the first card, her voice trembling, “representing an end, a conclusion, an inevitable upheaval, not an ordinary end, but the kind that… has no turning back.”
Jiang Jiu raised an eyebrow.
Black Swan then pointed to the second card, his hand trembling even more violently: "The Tower... represents collapse, destruction, and a sudden upheaval of everything, which usually means... the existing order will be completely destroyed, and the person involved will suffer a severe blow."
She paused, then added, "And it was the kind of... sudden, unavoidable, devastating blow."
Jiang Jiu didn't respond directly.
The Black Swan finally points to the third card: "Ten of Swords...represents utter defeat, an irreversible ending. Ten swords piercing one person's body simultaneously—can you imagine that scene? It's...it's..."
She couldn't continue.
The three cards, placed together, were practically a declaration of her death.
Fireworks was the first comment to appear, carrying that signature, mischievous, and cheerful energy.
[Hanabi: Oh my... Death, the Tower, and the Ten of Swords! What a great hand! What a wonderful hand, Black Swan! You're about to win big!]
[Silver Wolf: You call this a good hand?]
[Fireworks: Yes~ The upright Death card represents the end, the Tower represents destruction, and the Ten of Swords represents failure. Isn't this the perfect summary of the Black Swan's career as a remembrancer? End, destruction, failure—all in one go. What an artistic way to conclude a career!]
Black Swan: Please, just shut up...
[Dahlia: What a terrible card, dear Black Swan~ Maybe you could start thinking about where to be buried... Oh, I forgot, you're not human, so you can't be buried even when you die~]
Black Swan: ......
The black swan wanted to fly over to the dahlia and give her a little nudge.
[Black Swan: Is this a calamity in my destiny? The void is truly terrifying. From now on, I must stay a hundred and eight thousand miles away from the void...]
[Fireworks: Hahahaha! Lady Black Swan has started talking nonsense, so pitiful, come here, let me give you a hug~]
[Silver Wolf: What are you hugging? You don't even know where she is.]
[Fireworks: A mental hug! Hearts connected! You, a person without faith, would never understand!]
[Silver Wolf: Gaming is everything, next!]
[Fireworks: Code is so boring! Fun is the ultimate truth of the universe!]
[Dahlia: Oh, dear Black Swan, let me comfort you. Come, be good, don't be afraid. It's just death, isn't it? Who hasn't died before?]
[Black Swan: I've never died! I don't want to die!]
[Dahlia: Then you should pray that what Lord Jiang Jiu said is true.]
In the scene, Jiang Jiu hesitated for two seconds, thought for a moment, and then asked in return, "You believe in this?"
The black swan paused for a moment, then asked, "Huh?"
