But when it's Cocolia's turn...

She had no choice.

However, even though she was bewitched by the Star Core, Cocolia wasn't stupid, and the Star Core showed her the truth.

The so-called new world is actually something swallowed up by a rift.

[Thus, they became beings of the rift realm.]

So what exactly are the beings from the rift?

The Broad Knowledge Society's research on rifts explicitly states: "Rift creations generally exist in the form of erosion. They seem to retain the memory and habits of the original prototype, but their outward appearance is quite different, often expressing strong exclusivity."

Scholars dedicated to studying rifts have also warned: "An object corrupted by a rift should be considered as two completely unrelated entities; any illusions about it will lead to serious consequences."

But unfortunately... for a drowning person, even a straw can be a lifeline.

So Cocolia changed.

She is no longer the passionate and unwavering guardian she once was.

Rather, it is [Star Core]'s representative in Belloberg.

Everyone: "..." The pretty girl remained silent.jpg

And don't talk about Cocolia either.

They could feel the despair even through the screen.

The diary entries seem numerous, but in reality, they consist entirely of Bian Que's three-part mantra: "Hopeless! Just wait to die! Goodbye!"

However... it's confirmed! The Star Core truly possesses self-awareness!

And it's about that kind of group consciousness!

This little star... could it really be a star core that has come to life?

******

If that were all, Bronya certainly wouldn't have broken ties with her.

But Cocolia was already intoxicated.

To accelerate the erosion of the rift, she conscripted all the Silvermane Iron Guards from the lower districts and sealed off all communication between the upper and lower districts.

The result was that the lower districts, having lost the Silvermane Iron Guards, grew increasingly chaotic.

People's living standards are deteriorating, medicines are scarce, and resources are depleted.

To what extent is it scarce?

The upper-class areas still retain the prosperity and comfort of the peacetime era.

The lower levels, however, could only afford to eat things like rat meat, cave salamanders, and rock crabs—even these were rare delicacies.

In addition, Cocolia is also a 'master of tactical micro-management'.

[For example: She explicitly stated that if they encountered rift erosion, the Silvermane Iron Guard's musketeers must advance 20 meters before firing.]

Even if it wasn't explicitly stated that this was sending people to their deaths.

But it's pretty much the same.

[And her only remaining humanity was Bronya.]

However, when Bronya witnessed the devastation in the lower tiers, she chose to defect.

The mother and daughter ultimately found themselves on opposite sides.

Everyone: "..." (Image showing goosebumps)

If Cocolia was a victim driven to desperation by a situation before, then her fall into the abyss is truly infuriating.

They opened their mouths as if they wanted to say something, but Bronya and the others in front of the screen remained silent for a long time.

How tragic!

I'm furious at their resolute decision!

Sad, deplorable!

However, to be fair!

[Cocolia, corrupted by the star's core, actually has a certain charm.]

[As long as you're bold.]

Mothers-in-law can also take maternity leave!

[Image attached.jpg]

Everyone: "??????"

The paragraph ends with an image of Cocolia, the Mother of Deception.

To be fair, Cocolia's voluptuous body, as dazzling as the starry sky, paired with exquisite ice crystals, does indeed have a unique charm.

But what's with this "mothers-in-law can also take maternity leave" nonsense?

One sentence and you've flirted with two people!

You want to drink two cups of milk tea at the same time with just one straw, right?

Heh~ tui! tui! tui!

Scumbag!

PS: The image is of Cocolia, the Mother of Deception.

Chapter 235 March 7th: This is the first time we've ever been so warmly welcomed!

In the suite's living room, she looked at the two words "mother-in-law" clearly written on the diary, and then at Gu Jing sitting happily beside her.

Bronya, her cheeks burning with embarrassment and anger, said, "Please don't joke like that! Even you would make me angry!"

"Oh?"

Turning to look at Bronya, Gu Jing stared at her with amusement in his eyes, making Bronya feel embarrassed.

He smiled and put away his diary, saying, "In that case, let's leave this topic here."

"However, I should also remind you of something."

"Bronya probably already knows."

"I'm not a good man."

"If you get too close to me."

"The consequences of the accident..."

"You'll have to take responsibility for it yourself."

Bronya: "..." Duck~ Duck speechless.jpg

He'd said everything, good and bad, and Bronya, her head buzzing, didn't know what to say for a moment.

[Silver Wolf: Good heavens! This is a classic case of playing hard to get, isn't it? Absolutely—a classic case of playing hard to get!]

[Silver Wolf: You have to hold on!]

[Silver Wolf: Don't let some scumbag easily fool you!]

[Silver Wolf: You should know that no one cherishes things that are easily obtained!]

[Silver Wolf: You can discard it whenever you get tired of it!]

Silver Wolf: By then—

Silver Wolf: You'll have nowhere to cry!

[Silver Wolf: Always remember! A scumbag's mouth! A lying devil!]

Bronya: "—!!!" Is that so?

Unconsciously widening her eyes, the innocent girl had undoubtedly learned a lesson from the silver wolf; she had never imagined such an outcome!

[The pink-haired fox, always eager for drama: Oh dear~ Miss Silver Wolf is right!]

[Yae no Miko: You don't believe me? Just look at us and you'll see.]

[Yae no Miko: Someone once made vows of eternal love.]

[Yae no Miko: We also said we'd be each other's emotional support for life.]

[Yae no Miko: But what about now? We spend all our time in this tiny Dust Song Pot.]

[Yae no Miko: What a heartless man.]

[Yae no Miko: He didn't even glance at it.]

[Alicia: Waaaaah~~ I feel so pathetic.]

[Yingmei: The more I think about it, the angrier I get!]

Seeing their comments, Bronya, who had been somewhat skeptical, suddenly became restless and looked at Gu Jing with obvious fear.

Especially when Gu Jing looked at her, she couldn't help but shudder. Seeing this scene through the live broadcast, Shenzi and the others, feeling that their prank had succeeded, laughed heartily and rolled around on the sofa or tatami while holding their stomachs.

Theresa and the others, who knew the truth, were also a bit stunned. Bronya from the parallel world was really too straightforward, wasn't she?

******

Just as Bronya was feeling uneasy, the pioneering team led by Himeko also encountered a troublesome situation—just now, they met a guy named Sambo Koski in the snow, who claimed to be searching for ancient artifacts in the snow to resell.

After a brief conversation, the three of them decided to ask him to lead them into the city. But... this guy led them to the Silvermane Iron Guards and then ran away in the chaos!

Bronya: Sorry, Sambo Koski is a wanted criminal in Belloberg.

Bronya: I see you two walking together.

Bronya: Misunderstandings are inevitable among the Iron Guards responsible for the pursuit.

Bronya: Is everyone alright?

[March 7th: Haha, no need to apologize, we're fine.]
