Wanjie Game Hall, I sent Kiana to Silent Hill

"Even though you're all lamenting, Bronya still can't help but say something—the combat AI onboard the Anti-Entropy mechas does have some issues. It's a shame that all the mechas that participated in the battle were destroyed, leaving no video footage."

Bronya took the initiative to change the subject, and Wang Xuanqiao took the opportunity to continue her conversation.

"The Anti-Entropy Mechs should be using the logic of legionary combat, maintaining the front and concentrating firepower on high-risk targets. This process is fine for conventional warfare, but it won't work against powerful individuals like the Herrschers. Ultimately, it's a problem with the command personnel."

At this time, Mei Raiden, who had not had time to speak just now, mentioned another matter.

"Ms. Huang Quan, what you just said means... that there has also been a collapse in your area?"

"Perhaps." Huang Quan turned his gaze to Mei Raiden and answered the question, "In the past, we called it the manifestation of the Eight Million Evil Gods in Izumo. However... the Eight Million Evil Gods of Takama-ga-hara are actually just like us, fish struggling to survive in a dried-up lake."

"There is also a video about Izumo's story. Do you want to watch it?" Wang Xuanqiao was already ready to play a new video. Although the next video should have been "Angel Reconstruction", since Mei Raiden mentioned the matter of Huang Quan, he might as well change the order.

That’s right, the next film after “Queen’s Arrival” was not “The Last Lesson”.

Wang Xuanqiao was there to help Bianca and her sister recognize each other, not to stab them. He knew full well that the content of "The Last Lesson" was only suitable for them to read on their own when they returned home.

Playing "Queen's Departure" can indeed stir up emotions the fastest, but if you add "The Last Lesson" afterwards, it would be too much.

"Is there one in Izumo too?" There was a hint of surprise in Huang Quan's eyes.

"Well, it's just an artistic abbreviation." Seeing that no one objected, Wang Xuanqiao clicked on the video about Izumo in the Thousand Star Journey series.

[Do you still remember why Izumo forged a sword?]

The girl, standing alone under the collapsing mountain of knives, began to answer this question.

Eight million evil spirits descended upon Izumo from Takama-ga-hara, unleashing catastrophe. To save himself, Izumo broke seventy-thirty-three swords, slaying twelve supremely powerful evil spirits and forging twelve world-protecting swords. However, the catastrophe did not subside; the evil of Takama-ga-hara was merely the beginning of destruction. Izumo broke these twelve world-protecting swords again and forged them into two world-bearing swords.

Yet, none of those countless blades could save Yun. This doomed world snapped its last remaining blade, extinguished the flame of hope, and ultimately left behind a tomb wandering among the stars.

I know this world...

"As fleeting as the dew..."

Huang Quan couldn't help but recite a haiku along with Izumo's last sword.

Mei Raiden instantly understood what Huang Quan had said to her.

Life is too short when we walk together, but too long when we walk alone...

Kiana said nothing, but held up the marshmallows she had roasted and handed them to Huang Quan. Huang Quan smiled at her gently, took all the marshmallows, and put them into his mouth one by one.

She found that she really liked the sticky feeling, like light clouds, which reminded her of the girl hidden in the thick diving suit. She flew into the sky, dived into nothingness, and caused a momentary ripple in the dead ocean.

"Manager..." Bronya suddenly asked a question.

"If the power that enveloped Izumo descended upon Earth, with Earth's current capabilities, would we have a chance of victory?"

Wang Xuanqiao quickly counted the high-end combat forces currently possessed by Earth and replied, "It's hard to say. However, if we only talk about the Void Star God, there is still a chance. After all, "He" is still under the constraints of the underlying rules of the Imaginary Number Tree."

"Huh? Just a chance?" Kiana was a little surprised. "If everything is under the rules of the Imaginary Number Tree, I should be able to resist it."

"Because nothingness isn't a concept that can be challenged," Wang Xuanqiao explained. "In fact, the concept of nothingness already pervades the entire world, because everything is inherently meaningless. The meaning of existence is acquired through experience; nothingness precedes existence."

"So the opportunity I'm talking about is that true Nothingness shouldn't give birth to a Star God. It won't give birth to anything. The fact that there are Star Gods means it's not completely Nothingness, but perhaps just possesses a little bit of the form and meaning of Nothingness. If that's the case, then you can defeat it."

As Wang Xuanqiao finished his explanation, Huang Quan suddenly said, "Before He descends, I will help you find a way to transcend Him."

"However, judging from the manager's understanding of [Wu], it seems that the manager has seen the real [Wu]?" Raiden Mei caught another small detail in the conversation.

"Yes, I saw it once by chance." Wang Xuanqiao nodded. "But you don't have to worry. As long as the four major laws that make up the world are still in operation, the true [Nothingness] will not enter the world."

Well, now there's a new term. But Wang Xuanqiao didn't intend to explain it any further, or else it would go on and on, and the barbecue party and the reunion of sisters would surely turn into some boring science conference.

"Okay, let's watch the next video." He quickly clicked on the animation of "Angel Reconstruction" as planned.

Compared to the heaviness contained in the previous two animations, this animation belonging to Bronya is obviously much more relaxed.

"So that's how Bronya became the Herrscher of Reason." Raiden Mei's expression relaxed considerably. "I remember when the manager took you into the Quantum Ocean, I could only watch from there. I was clearly very nervous, but also a little envious."

After hearing what Mei Raiden said, Bronya looked at her, with a hint of complicated emotions hidden deep in her eyes.

"By the way, Bronya, how is Seele now?" Kiana thought of another girl who appeared in the animation.

"Because of... the Quantum Sea, she is currently staying in Haiyuan City and helping to take care of everyone in the orphanage. Perhaps in the future she will officially join the Fate of the Sky and go to St. Freya Academy for training." Bronya replied.

Having gotten the answer, Kiana suddenly turned her gaze towards Bianca.

"Manager, manager, we've just finished playing our stories. Is there any story about Yulandel?"

Bianca's story? That's a must.

Wang Xuanqiao noticed that Bianca secretly glanced at him and immediately laughed.

Unexpectedly, Kiana actually gave him an assist. He immediately clicked on the video he had prepared for a long time: Character Theater - Dust-covered Diary.

[This is an investigation from the present to the past. Or perhaps, it is a dream from the past to the present.]

When a particularly cartoonish Bianca appeared on screen, this completely different and cute style made the girls feel warm. However, when the diary with a Hom cover appeared, they all looked at Bianca.

"It's okay, just look." Bianca raised the corner of her mouth and nodded to everyone.

[Today is the last day of 2006!]

A tender child's voice began to narrate the forgotten past.

——The author has something to say——

Yesterday I saw a book friend say that it was a bit too harsh to play the video directly to The Queen’s Arrival.

Well... well, Kiana had already completed the storyline by the time she returned to the world. Not only had she seen the Queen's Arrival, she'd even seen the video of the final lesson. Although our Kiana didn't experience the Thousand Law incident, the significance of the Thousand Law to our Kiana is really dispensable, unless she absolutely had to have a chocolate door.

[Jizi looks at you tenderly, no longer speaking]

Sneak attack!

You never thought that! This is my real plan! (Run)

Ahem, let's be serious. If a video of the Queen's arrival could have such a strong impact on Kiana's current state, then this story would be completely wasted. Of course, the final lesson couldn't be shown, because if it were, the atmosphere would really turn into one of nostalgia.

Volume 226: : Sister and Younger Sister

As the girl's diary gently turned a new page, everyone except Bianca and Wang Xuanqiao suddenly realized that this didn't seem to be a story about 'Bianca Yulandel Atagina'...

Kiana had a guess the moment she saw Siegfried, but the video had not ended yet, and she wanted to finish watching the story that she had never known.

They were all watching the video intently, even Bianca was reliving her lost and regained memories through this animation.

Only Wang Xuanqiao, who had unnoticeably removed his glasses, was silently listening to Bianca's heartbeat. The reason for this was, of course, because Wang Xuanqiao felt Bianca might fail.

Don't be fooled by Bianca's seemingly reliable appearance; that's actually due to her incredibly serious nature. However, this nature naturally only applies to matters that require rationality, and when it comes to areas that require emotional support...

It's easy to go wrong.

Otherwise, wouldn't Bianca in the original story have officially recognized Kiana only after the Stigmata Project? Her serious nature was actually a hindrance at this time, considering this and that from a rational perspective without considering the emotional side.

Therefore, Wang Xuanqiao was keeping a careful eye on this situation. If Bianca, now possessing the divine power of freedom, tried to escape, Kiana might not be able to catch her. If that happened, Wang Xuanqiao would definitely take action to control Bianca.

Just kidding, I set up a trap for you today. The video has been released, you have to admit it even if you don’t want to!

As expected, when the little Qiana in the video began to look through the Xilin plan, Wang Xuanqiao heard Bianca's heartbeat clearly begin to accelerate. Because at this moment, the secret that was about to be exposed completely lost its last bit of cover.

Bianca is the original Kiana Kaslana!

Kiana had stopped watching the video, her gaze completely focused on Bianca. And Bianca? She was still staring intently at the projected image. Despite being under three piercing gazes, Bianca remained remarkably calm.

Unfortunately, Wang Xuanqiao had already seen through her disguise. In fact, Bianca's heart was about to jump out of her chest at this moment.

If her buttocks had not been sitting obediently on the chair, Wang Xuanqiao would have been ready to hold her down.

Time passed, and Kiana's investigation gradually came to an end. Finally, Kiana from the past and Bianca from the future sat facing each other, and Bianca from the future spoke those words.

[But I am no longer you after all.]

Kiana couldn't bear it any longer. Bronya was the only person between her and Bianca. Bronya then took two steps back from her seat, and Kiana immediately stood up and rushed towards Bianca.

"Sister!" Kiana hugged Bianca tightly, pressing her cheek against hers. "I always thought I would never have the chance to see you. It turns out you've always been there. That's great, really great!"

"It doesn't matter if I have those memories or not! You are my sister, always have been, always will be!"

"Qi, Kiana..."

Bianca's head seemed to be stuck. Although her hands instinctively hugged Kiana, her eyes were looking towards Wang Xuanqiao.

Why are you looking at me? Wang Xuanqiao gave Bianca a look, hinting at her—speak!

At this point, of course, she would respond with a surprise. For example, the memory hadn't been lost, and unlike in the video, she was still the same Kiana Kaslana who, at ten years old, bravely stepped forward and rescued her sister from a dangerous situation.

Bianca looked at Wang Xuanqiao for a long time, and when she saw that even Bronya and Raiden Mei were a little anxious, she finally realized what she should do now.

"Kiana."

Bianca raised a hand and gently patted Kiana's head, motioning her to look up at her.

The next moment, Bianca's cascading golden hair instantly turned into the iconic white of the Kaslana family.

Kiana raised her head and saw the long white hair and gentle face. Suddenly, she felt dazed as if she was dreaming.

Like...too similar...

Kiana, who had seen Cecilia in the Destiny data space before, noticed that Bianca, smiling gently at this moment, looked a great deal like Cecilia's mother. She was so mesmerized that even the tears that hadn't fallen for a long time began to flow unconsciously from the corners of her eyes.

Bianca raised her hand to wipe away Kiana's tears, but remembering that she had just grabbed the skewers not long ago, she instead pulled a piece of paper from the table and used it to wipe away those long-lost tears.

"Don't worry, I've recovered those memories." Bianca said softly to Kiana, "I learned the magical powers of the Monkey King from the store manager. I'm no longer the same person as in the video."

"I... hope that there will be no regrets or estrangements between us sisters. I hope that we can spend every day happily in the future."

"Yeah!" Kiana nodded vigorously, and couldn't help but bury herself in Bianca's arms.

As the saying goes, an elder brother is like a father and an elder sister is like a mother. The white-haired Bianca is not only a sister, but also reminds Kiana of her mother and the dream family.

In the video, little Kiana also handed over her treasured treasures to the future Bianca.

[Is this... a family photo?]

[Yes! Mom, Dad, Aunt, Sister, and me. After we rescue Dad, take another photo like this, including Mom's.]

Little Kiana waved goodbye and disappeared before Bianca, a smile on her face. From then on, that world was filled with only Bianca Atagina. The name Kiana Kaslana was passed down to her younger sister.

And that name became the first anchor in Kiana's life, leading her to stumble forward into the future.

The video ended at this point. Wang Xuanqiao turned off the terminal projection, stood up, and pretended to remember something. "Oh, the bitter melon stuffed with meat should be almost done. I'll go give Theresa a portion. You guys eat first!"

Bronya immediately followed Wang Xuanqiao's footsteps.

"Bronya suddenly wants to drink an iced Coke, so she has to go downstairs."

Mei Raiden also quickly stood up.

"I'm going to the bathroom."

Huang Quan glanced at the three people who were leaving quickly and stood up as well.

"Now that the manager is gone, I'll take care of the barbecue."

So Bianca and Kiana were the only two people left at the table. Even Huang Quan, who was looking after the charcoal fire...where was Huang Quan?

Well, Huang Quan was gone too. Bianca and Kiana were the only two left on the rooftop.

After Wang Xuanqiao packed up the bitter melon stuffed with meat in a tinfoil container, he headed straight for the first floor. On his way down, he messaged Theresa, asking her to open the door for takeout. He hadn't made any excuses; he'd prepared a special dish for Theresa for this barbecue.

In fact, all the dishes related to bitter melon are left for her because other people really don’t eat that stuff.

Although Theresa tried to play tricks on Wang Xuanqiao this time, she was unfortunately no match for him and ultimately lost miserably. As the undisputed victor, Wang Xuanqiao didn't feel happy at all. On the contrary, he felt Theresa was somewhat pathetic.

After all, the position of Archbishop of Destiny wasn't easy to hold. Otto, to ensure his sole control of Destiny, had stripped away leadership from the middle levels. He could handle the intense workload with his soul-steel body, but Theresa was still made of flesh and blood.

Even if she had the physique of a fusion warrior, it would still not compare to a soul steel body.

So Wang Xuanqiao had already prepared some of Theresa's favorite foods for the barbecue party, so that there would be a give-and-take, and that would be a way to show favoritism. After eating, if Theresa wanted to go crazy again, she would be tortured by her conscience.

He sent a message and Theresa's reply came back quickly.

Otaku who plays games: Are you free?

Teriri: Aren't you having a barbecue party? Are you planning on asking me to bring Rita over as well?

From her reply, it can be seen that Theresa is somewhat resentful.

Wang Xuanqiao chuckled and replied with only two words - open the door!

Then he carried the lunch box and stood in front of the sensor door waiting for it to open.
