Cinderella's true identity is an angel of judgment who carries out divine punishment. She was created directly by God, so she can also be considered a child of God.

She also has another identity—a reincarnated person.

Her name before reincarnation was quite interesting; just saying it made people instinctively shut up—An Jing (Quiet). Yes, her surname was An and her given name was Jing.

An Jing, who died in an accident, was reincarnated in another world and became a Judgment Angel, beginning a new life.

Both the title and the plot are full of flaws.

Furthermore, the relationship between the fictional world and the real world is reversed. In other words, Cinderella's story wasn't created, but rather something that actually happened in another world, making one exclaim... "Reality is truly magical."

The plot of this work is very simple, and can be roughly summarized as follows: An Jing, who lived a very unhappy life before reincarnation, decides to start a life of recklessness after being reincarnated as Cinderella. She will bring devastating and cruel blows to anyone or anything she doesn't like. The whole world seems to have become her backyard and playground, and everyone has to endure her negative emotions at all times.

She punishes evil, but does not promote good.

Yes, she is a villainous protagonist, and she does things that fit the villain's character—she falls into the form of a demon king, wreaking havoc on the human world and causing chaos, while also fighting against the entire celestial realm.

Among them, the confrontation with the Celestial Realm is a hidden main storyline, and the related plot does not account for a large proportion of the main story. Some major battles are even just briefly mentioned and then skipped over.

Most of the storylines revolve around Cinderella's adventures in the mortal world, unfolding in an episodic format.

To some extent, it can be considered a work without a main plot. Its main value is to fight evil with evil, highlighting the satisfying feeling of punishing evildoers.

To date, Cinderella's world has been destroyed by her several times.

After each destruction, Heaven restarts the world and wages a war against Hell, which is controlled by Cinderella.

It looks like... like a parent cleaning up after their naughty child, and then giving them a beating.

This is the information about the plot of this work that Fan Xiao and his group summarized.

Valuable intelligence was scarce.

Or perhaps there isn't one at all.

All that can be seen is that Cinderella is a cruel demon king.

Although her cruel nature was not innate, but rather a result of her unhappy life before reincarnation, the work does not explain exactly how she was unhappy.

The main plot of the entire work tells the story of Cinderella's life after her reincarnation. As for her life before reincarnation, it is only mentioned briefly and not elaborated on.

However, her abilities were described very clearly.

The Seven Horns of Doom, the Four Revelation Instruments, and the World-Destroying Flood—these are the three great destructive powers she wields.

The Seven Anti-Shields can be considered a curse from God on her fall into demonhood.

Just as God cursed Cain.

What? You're asking why a curse looks like a blessing?

In Cinderella's world, the gods serve as background figures, appearing only a handful of times.

And all of Cinderella's few appearances occurred after she had caused a major disaster—that is, after she destroyed the world.

God came out to restart the world and clean up her mess.

After wiping it, give her a symbolic scolding, and that's the end of it.

It highlights an unreasonable form of spoiling!

So a curse can look like a blessing... which makes sense.

In addition to the Seven Shields, God also bestowed upon Cinderella two other abilities, which resided in her pair of wings—Divine Command and Divine Invisibility.

That's all the abilities Cinderella has.

In addition, she also possesses some basic characteristics of an angel—the ability to fly, regenerate, super senses, powerful physical abilities, a strong spiritual body, and conceptual-level immortality, among others.

As one of the highest-ranking archangels, her basic angelic traits are numerically maxed out.

If anyone dares to get close enough to fight her, they'll probably be killed with a single punch.

Having gathered all the information, Fan Xiao and the others finally understood one thing—the reason Cinderella's work information was revealed was not because the real world had banished her traces of power, but because her right wing was damaged.

On her right wing dwells the "divine spirit".

She used this half of her wing to self-destruct and escape, thus disappearing from sight.

Therefore, all the information she had hidden in the concealed space was released and returned to its original position.

In other words, if her right wing had been intact when she left the battlefield in the previous battle, then information about her would likely still be hidden and untraceable.

Xia Li and the others once again personally experienced the imbalance of the dungeon.

Who knew we should aim for her wings?

In response, Fan Xiao offered a different perspective: "The mind control among the three of Von Smann disappeared when Cinderella was expelled, so... even if Cinderella's right wing hadn't been damaged, we should still be able to obtain this information."

"There are two conditions for obtaining the information—either find a way to get the world to expel her, or destroy her right wing. Either way, the goal will be achieved."

"We don't need to dwell on that now. Compared to that, the abilities that aren't mentioned in the story's setting are what we should pay attention to."

"You mean Cinderella's ability to travel between realms, and the infinite spiritual power she has displayed?" Shirley asked.

Fan Xiao nodded and said, "These two abilities are very special, not minor abilities that can be ignored, but they were never mentioned in the entire work."

“Cinderella had told Fan Xiaoxiao before that her ability to travel between worlds was granted by this world. Now it seems that her infinite spiritual power is also most likely granted by this world.”

"In other words, what's special isn't her, but these two abilities."

"Whoever can obtain them all at the same time will become the dungeon boss."

In the story, Cinderella's use of various powers to destroy authority is not easy.

At least she couldn't do what she did in previous battles, recklessly and repeatedly using the Doomsday Horn and the Four Apocalypse Weapons, especially simultaneously.

Fan Xiao estimated that if the god from this world came to the real world, he might not be able to defeat Cinderella.

The concept of God is different from that of God.

At this moment, Beifeng joined the discussion, saying, "Mr. Fan, what you're saying... could it be that you're eyeing these two abilities?"

"I have this idea, but it's just speculation at this stage."

Fan Xiao said, "Cinderella wasn't born a dungeon boss; she suddenly gained two major privileges granted by the dungeon world, thus becoming a dungeon boss. Since these privileges were granted, then... can we steal them?"

"Hmm...that's a very bold assumption," Beifeng commented.

Fan Xiao continued, "There's one more thing we need to prepare ourselves mentally for."

"I destroyed six of Cinderella's Doomsday Seven Horns, all four Apocalypse Artifacts were destroyed, and the wings that housed 'God of Concealment' are also gone. Her strength has been greatly diminished—that's what I thought before."

"Now..."

He sighed softly, "After reading about the concept of her work, my thoughts have changed."

"When Cinderella returns, her strength will not only not diminish, but may even become stronger!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Li and the others were somewhat surprised.

However, they were not stupid. After being reminded, they thought about it for a moment and understood.

Xia Li blurted out, "You mean she'll return to her own world and gain new power from God?"

“That’s right. Given how much God dotes on her, the probability of this happening is one hundred percent, as long as she’s willing to bow her head.”

Fan Xiao said, "Or... even if she is unwilling to bow down, there is still a possibility that she can seize the divine position and gain new power."

"After all, in her world, the gods are defined as beings who possess the 'Seat of One God,' and the 'Seat of God' is formed from the rules of that world—it is not that the gods created the world, but that the world created the gods. The essence of the gods does not lie in the gods themselves, but in the 'Seat of God.'"

"Now that Cinderella possesses the world authority of 'infinite spiritual power,' she is probably the strongest individual in this instance world."

"Although God is a high-ranking being who bestowed upon her various abilities, he is probably no match for infinite power."

"If she uses this power to seize the 'Throne of God', when she returns, we will be facing a truly invincible being."

"I don't think...it's possible?" White Cat said tremblingly, "God...God is, after all, her father. Even if she's heartless and insane, she wouldn't lay a hand on her father, would she?"

"It's safer to consider the worst-case scenario first."

Xia Li agreed with Fan Xiao's speculation.

After hearing the discussion, Lily, who was sitting next to Fan Xiao, asked in a trembling voice, "If that's really the case, then... what should we do then?"

Although she is a magical girl who represents love and justice, she is still young and still has fears.

In addition, Fan Xiaoxiao sacrificed herself in the previous battle. Under the multiple blows, she is now somewhat afraid of Cinderella.

Fan Xiao naturally reached out and patted Lily's head, comforting her, "Do you remember the third game tip? Since this world is a game world, there must be a way to pass the level. Even if the worst happens, we still have a chance to turn things around."

Although Lily is not a player, she shared information about the players' side when she agreed to cooperate.

She was aware of all three game hints the player received.

Lily nodded, and asked with a hint of anticipation, "Mr. Fan... have you found a way?"

Fan Xiao has become the backbone of this team, and she now trusts him unconditionally.

Fan Xiao said, "Not yet, but I have some guesses."

"The third tip: What others give up may be what you need."

"I think this hint is the dungeon reminding us that in order to clear the dungeon, we must obtain something from within it—it could be an item, or it could be some kind of power... Whatever it is, we players must find it to have the foundation to clear the dungeon."

"Didn't we all agree that the battle with Cinderella lacked the balance a game should have? I think the problem might lie in this point—because we didn't find this thing, so we had an exceptionally difficult time... No, I should say that without my special psionic power, we players would have no chance of winning at all, and going to war with Cinderella would be tantamount to suicide."

"The third hint..." Beifeng said thoughtfully, "What does Mr. Fan think it should be? Or rather... something that someone abandoned?"

"I didn't really have a clue about the answer to this question before, but after reading Cinderella's works, I personally feel... it should be her."

Fan Xiao concluded, explaining, "The key word in the third tip is 'abandon'."

“What a person can give up is not only physical objects, but also emotions. Such as kindness, conscience, morality, naivety, and so on.”

"If the latter is abandoned, generally speaking, there will be some changes in personality and behavior."

"I don't know if you've noticed, but in Cinderella's works, it's explicitly mentioned that she wasn't born a tyrant or a demon king. Rather, it was because of her unpleasant experiences in her past life that she decided to become a tyrant who would do whatever she wanted and punish evil after her reincarnation. This fits my guess. She abandoned certain emotions from her past life and transformed into a tyrant in this world."

"Perhaps in her past life, she was a good person."

After a pause, he stated his final conclusion: "The 'discarded thing' we are looking for is very likely some kind of emotion held by Cinderella's past life—Quiet."

"Indeed... it can be fitted."

Xia Li did not deny this.

Neither Beifeng nor the others refuted it.

Although Fan Xiao's reasoning was somewhat erratic and whimsical, it was logically sound and corresponded well to the current situation.

In other words... the possibility is not small.

“But…” Lily asked doubtfully, “How can we obtain abandoned emotions? These things don’t have a physical form…”

"This is simple."

Beifeng offered his own guess: "Although emotions are abstract, they can be anchored to real objects. A common example is... an item that embodies a certain memory. This kind of trope is very common in games... I mean video games."

"If nothing unexpected happens, Cinderella, or rather, Quiet, has likely channeled the emotions she has abandoned into some object."

"Once we find this item, we will gain an advantage that will help us pass the level."

After saying that, he looked at Fan Xiao and asked, "Is that right?"

"Yes, that's a very comprehensive point, and that's exactly what I meant." Fan Xiao nodded.

“The key now is how to find this item,” Xia Li analyzed. “In Cinderella’s story, there should be two worlds—one real world and one world where gods exist. The thing she discarded in her previous life should be in the real world of that story, but how do we get there…”

This is a difficult question.

Sorrowful Wind, White Kitten, and Lily all looked thoughtful.

Currently, the only person confirmed to be able to travel between worlds is Cinderella... But forget it, they can't find a way to reach the world of the story by talking to her.

And other methods of crossing worlds besides Cinderella...

Perhaps it can only be found in "true mythology".

The "True Myth" hint given by the dungeon should at least come in handy, right?

Just as everyone was racking their brains, Fan Xiao suddenly brought up a rather novel perspective: "Do you think it's possible that the 'real world' in Cinderella's story, where she is reincarnated from the real world to another world, refers to the world we are in right now?"

Chapter 725: Is the dungeon malfunctioning?

Fan Xiao's bold guess was not immediately accepted by Xia Li and the others.
