Zongman: Please stop destroying the worldview!

Jianzi: "Master Mage, I roughly understand what you mean, but he is a god after all. Are you really not going to get hurt?"

Looking at Jianzi's worried expression, Chen Mo explained, "That's right, although you can see it, the true level of power is still difficult for you to understand, so my words can't put your mind at ease.

It's true that I'm short on mana right now, but I don't necessarily need music to really get started.

Actually, I can take you to the mountain god's territory right now. I can cast a world-devouring curse and turn the entire mountain into nothingness, then scatter the rest of it. The mountain god has also created a barrier around his area that no one can enter. This way, we don't have to worry about accidentally harming innocent people, and it will be even more efficient.

I figured we'd still have time to come back for a midnight snack."

Jianzi: "So that's how it is! That's right..."

She patted her forehead, feeling that during the time she had been with Chen Mo, she had let down her guard against him too much. Because of Chen Mo's sometimes gentle and sometimes playful attitude, she had forgotten what kind of world-destroying scenes she could see from him!

I am really worried about my safety because of such a terrifying existence!

Jianzi: "I completely treated Master Mage as an ordinary friend and forgot how terrifying you are!"

Chen Mo: "That's why I'm willing to help you, Jianzi. You're such a kind and capable person."

Jianzi shook his head: "No, I don't have any, I can only see it, I can't change anything."

Her voice dropped. "Who can truly say 'awesome' in front of the Master Mage?"

-

Walking on the overpass illuminated by the setting sun, the two stopped and leaned on the railing to look down at the traffic below.

Chen Mo: "Is it impressive? I don't think so. I just bullied a few weaklings who were far inferior to me. If I had indulged in this kind of cheap pride, I would have been possessed by Khorne long ago."

Jianzi grumbled quietly, "You can easily kill such a powerful evil spirit and easily help others accomplish the impossible. The master's words are just like showing off."

Chen Mo: "Maybe it feels like showing off, but this is also what I really mean."

Bits of memories flashed through his mind. Chen Mo held the railing and said with some emotion:

"Being able to tear apart continents at will, summon incredible armies, and warp the world with a single spell—that's pretty impressive, right? But that kind of thing really doesn't mean anything to me.

I am just an ordinary person who was fortunate enough to possess great power and who also happened to have honed the will to wield it."

"A truly powerful person is someone who has the determination to overcome his or her own mental weaknesses. No matter how cruel life may be, he or she will never give up the will to fight, and in this twisted world, he or she will always maintain a kind and just heart."

“I’ve been to a lot of shithole worlds, but I’ve met a lot of wonderful people in those worlds.

They are not planeswalkers, they cannot escape from the horrors of the world, and they do not have spells that can easily warp reality.

But they overcame their fear and sorrow, continued to fight, remained resolute, resisted desperately, and fought bravely, and did not give up struggling even when the outcome was destined to be despair.

Their souls are like shining stars, telling me who I am and where I am in the dark night.

If I hadn't met these amazing friends, I might have turned into a twisted monster, just like that nameless guy said."

Jianzi didn't say anything. Even though she didn't understand some of the words, she didn't ask any questions and just listened quietly.

She had known Chen Mo for some time, but this was the first time she had a slight understanding of the true heart of this great wizard.

Chen Mo: "In this world, I've also met a lot of friends. They're really great and interesting, so I'm willing to help them without asking for anything in return.

For example, even though you were scared to death, you were still able to survive the invasion of evil spirits and even tried to find a way to save your friends. Jianzi, you are a very powerful person.

Also, Roma and Granny Saegusa who are always saving others;

Linghuan, although a fraudster, will be the first to stand up and oppose the sacrifice of innocent people;

Qi Mu, although he says he is most afraid of trouble, he will help others immediately when he encounters danger.

Chen Mo left the railing, his thoughts returning to the first month in this world, when he had met so many new friends:

"Pochi who was able to overcome social anxiety, the Nijigas who were good at caring for others, and Kikuri who used drinking to fight her fear;

Aiyin who always takes the initiative to help others, Lixi who is serious and strong-willed about music, Hailing and Chuhua who make a career out of a little obsession, Xiangzi who is willing to change from a young lady to a worker for the sake of her family, A'long who can give up the yakuza and concentrate on being a househusband for the sake of his family... They are all awesome.

Peel off those twisted personalities and I can see their glittering souls. This is the most beautiful scenery in the world. I don’t want to miss this opportunity to travel to this world.

Chapter 78 The Guitarist Is Really a Hero

"Tsk, so this is what Master Mage thinks."

Seeing Zi laugh, Chen Mo asked, "Why, do you think it's ridiculous for me to say such things when I have such strong power?"

Jianzi: "No, I'm just laughing at myself. I have a pair of eyes that can see, but I can't see the things that are really important. Master Mage - can I call you by your name?"

Chen Mo: "Of course, I thought you liked calling me that, it makes you look more mysterious."

Jianzi: "Then I'll call you Brother Chen Mo. Seriously, you didn't lie to me, but I was so worried about it."

Jianzi: "Actually, I also want to perform on stage during this roadshow."

Chen Mo was a little surprised: "You want to form a band too?"

Jianzi: "It's not that I want to form a band, I just want to sing on a show related to me. I've accumulated too many complicated emotions during this period, and I want to use the popular way now to put an end to this bad time of mine."

Chen Mo: "That's great. Life still needs a sense of ritual—especially for the beginning of a new life."

Jianzi: "But my level is very poor, and the friends who can help with the performance can hardly play any instrument. I am still worried that going on stage with this level will affect your performance."

Chen Mo: "So, now you can relax, right? Don't worry about those trivial things, just have fun."

Jianzi nodded: "I understand what you mean. When the time comes, please watch my performance!"

Chen Mo gave a thumbs up: "I'll look forward to it!"

-

"Come on, come on, Pochi, you're a guitar hero!"

Now Pochi is still working hard to do a trivial thing.

On the way here, Boqi felt that two forces were about to tear him in half. One force was the desire to participate in the roadshow to save the world and become a guitar hero; the other was the extremely terrifying force of social phobia.

Not to mention performing it on the avenue later, just to express his opinions to Chen Mo now, Boqi had to use all his strength to prevent himself from turning back.

"Ahhh, no!"

Seeing Chen Mo's figure from afar, Boqi felt her body begin to lose control. She hugged the roadside telephone pole and collapsed into a slime. Her stormy thoughts kept showing her the terrible consequences of participating in the roadshow:

I participated in the road show in a fit of rage, but I made all kinds of mistakes as soon as I got on stage. I was laughed at by the audience, and pelted with rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves. My classmates who passed by filmed the video and uploaded it to the Internet, making me a laughing stock all over the world. Finally, I was arrested by the police and sentenced to prison for "poor performance in public". After 20 years, I was finally released from prison and became a shut-in. I locked myself in the closet and could only cry at the group photo of the band from many years ago...

do not be like this!

As expected, things like saving the world should be left to professional superheroes. For a weed like me living in the gutter, being an ordinary guitar anchor on the Internet is already the best destination.

Pochi-chan's spirit gradually connects back to her body. It's so strange, who would do the thing they fear most under the banner of being a middle school student just because of a little middle school fantasy?

Fortunately, it is not too late now. Before Chen Mo discovers him, he can go back and continue to lie in his closet and enjoy the dark safety.

That's right, this was the right choice. Boqi felt her strength returning to her body and turned to walk away from Chen Mo. But after taking two steps, Boqi's wandering mind showed her another picture:

-

Many years later, Guitar Hero became a world-class superstar. Amid the cheers of countless audiences, the cool and handsome Pochi walked onto the stage with an exaggerated guitar. Under the dazzling lights, every stroke of his guitar became a classic that made millions of fans scream.

"Guitar Hero!"

"Guitar Hero!"

"Guitar Hero!"

In the interview after the performance, the successful Pochi-chan sat in the center of the studio and answered reporters' questions.

Until the reporter asked that question: "Excuse me, who discovered your talent when you debuted as Guitar Hero?"

Pochi couldn't open her mouth anymore. The cold fear gripped her heart. After a perfunctory interview, Pochi hastily ended the interview and fled back home.

Even though she lived in a mansion, Pochi couldn't find the sense of security she had in the closet. She trembled, recalling the turning point she didn't want to recall.

It was Chen Mo who found himself and asked Guitar Hero to join the band, taking the first step in his music career. But when Chen Mo was about to face a formidable enemy, Boqi retreated because of fear.

Without the powerful musical magic of Guitar Hero, Chen Mo died. At the same time, a girl he had never met died. She should have lived the youthful life unique to high school girls, but she also died because of her own escape.

Even with her fame and fortune, the deaths of two people due to her cowardice will haunt Pochi for the rest of her life. Every cheer from the audience for her title is an inescapable question: Do you truly deserve the title of "Guitar Hero"? Your guitar is so powerful, why didn't you save him?

When Goto Ichiri, a legendary guitarist, passed away on her hospital bed, the inner demons that had plagued her for a lifetime did not let her go. In her final moments, she saw the evil spirits transformed by Chen Mo and Jianzi, rushing towards her with resentment.

-

"No wow!!!"

Two messy delusions were struggling fiercely in Pochi-chan's mind. The fierceness of the struggle in her heart was enough to make Ruoye Mu say "good guy" if he came.

Pochi-chan felt her spirit switching between solid, liquid, gas, and plasma states. Just when she was about to lose track of what was happening in the world, a single sentence brought her back to reality.

"Pochi-chan, what are you doing here?!"

Oh no, I've been wasting my energy here for a long time and got caught by Chen Mo!

"Uh...Gu..." Pochi opened his mouth and let out a strange cry.

Chen Mo just smiled and looked at her with encouragement. This made Boqi's mind clear up a little. She shook her head to get rid of those strange fantasies and opened her mouth with all her strength:

"I want to be a guitar hero!"

It's over! After hesitating for so long, how could I say such a confusing thing? And I'm not ready to participate in the roadshow yet!

Chen Mo: "Great! I knew that as a guitar hero, Pochi-chan wouldn't sit idly by and ignore those in need."

"Uh, um, yeah."

Boqi-chan pointed her finger and spoke haltingly, as if she had returned to the first time she met Chen Mo:

"My guitar skills are pretty good, I think I can save you from death..."

Chen Mo: "When we first met, we seemed to talk like this, and it caused a big misunderstanding. It's really amazing, Boqi, that you can muster up the courage to take the initiative to participate in the roadshow even though you are so socially anxious."

Now that I have said this, it is too late to regret it.

At this moment, Pochi suddenly felt a sense of calm as if everything had settled.

This world is not scary to her. She joins a loving band, meets magical friends, attends a banquet with magic games, and observes the heartfelt conversation between the Hongxia sisters.

I can't just hide in the closet and watch. My guitar can definitely change something and convey something. Aren't there a lot of fans on the Internet who are always supporting me?

Stand up, Pochi-chan, you can do it.

Right now, my best fan is waiting for my help, and an innocent girl is waiting to be rescued. The fear brought by a mere road show can't bring me down - I'm a guitar hero!
