Their commission was suspicious.

"Miss Shana... judging from your tone, you are very familiar with my creator?" Chen Luo asked.

Merlin glanced at Chen Luo.

Generally speaking, if Chen Luo is going to cheat someone, his intentions are usually quite substantial.

"We're not exactly close... we've only clashed a few times. That guy's abilities are definitely troublesome," Shana said, biting her finger.

"Oh, it seems this friend doesn't have a very good relationship with the princess in military uniform. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Do you need my help?" Chen Luo asked.

"Heh, no need. It's not like I can't beat her. Her various abilities are indeed troublesome, but they can't eliminate my abilities," Shana said confidently, head held high.

Although she has no breasts.

“Oh…it seems Altair’s abilities are indeed ineffective against visitors from another world. Chen Luo, does this mean I can avoid dying once?” Merlin asked, turning his head.

"Visitors from another world?" Shana's expression faltered slightly, then her face changed drastically the next moment.

But just as Shana was about to make a move, a hand landed on her shoulder.

"Dear Miss Shana... Your boss asked me to give you his regards and, by the way, when do you plan to go home to work?" Chen Luo's voice rang in Shana's ears.

"Hahaha..." Shana laughed perfunctorily, wanting to run away immediately, but found that she couldn't move her body at all.

"Let me go!" Shana said stiffly, realizing she couldn't resist.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

Chen Luo released Xia Na's shoulders, and at the same time, loosened his control over her.

[Ding! Mission complete!]

"If missions could be this high in quality and frequency in the ordinary world, that would be great."

"You really let go?" Shana asked, somewhat surprised.

"Didn't you tell me to let go? Besides, even if I let you go, you can't escape. So hurry back. You're an agent, representing the world's actions. Causing trouble in this world will make things difficult for the world's consciousness," Chen Luo said, spreading his hands.

Just as Chen Luo knew that by leveraging the reputation of the puppeteer, he could thrive in the Dimensional Sea, he never used this excuse to commit evil deeds in the world or force the world consciousness to do things he didn't like.

Because the World Consciousness can indeed file a complaint with the World Consciousness Headquarters, and the consequences can be quite severe.

“Um… I wasn’t doing anything reckless. I was just occasionally distracted while dealing with Altair, chatting with my other self.” After Chen Luo finished speaking, Shana visibly became a little flustered.

Clearly, telling parents this behavior is also very effective in deterring others from doing it.

"Really? What's the share for each?"

"It's about 50/50."

"Talk to Altair for 5 minutes, then beat yourself up for 5 hours?"

"...But I really didn't have much of an impact on this world. I activated the seal when I was fighting Altair and another version of myself," Shana argued.

Sealing is a form of free magic. A very basic form of free magic... In simple terms that even those who have never experienced it can understand, it is to create a barrier that completely isolates the inside from the outside.

Only those with special powers can move within the barrier.

Moreover, once the seal is lifted, any damage can be repaired to the state before the seal was lifted (provided that the power of existence is used to repair it before the seal is lifted).

It can be considered the best method for concealing mysterious powers in battle.

So you mean...you're not planning to go back now?

The very act of offering a defense implies something.

“That’s right.” Shana nodded.

"What do you have to say, Yalastel? Stop playing dead and say something." Chen Luo looked at the necklace Shana was wearing.

Her full name is Alastor, the Heavenly Blaze. Her artifact that displays her consciousness is an exquisite pendant, and she is one of the three supreme gods of the Shana world.

Although Chen Luo's reward for completing this identity mission was the identity of Alastor, the God of Heavenly Punishment, it did not mean that the original God of Heavenly Punishment was gone. It simply meant that the other party no longer used this identity and had a new identity in the new world.

Unlike its original form in the original world, the current God of Heavenly Punishment resides within the necklace.

Because the original world has already been reincarnated.

"Squeak." Shana's necklace made a sound.

"..."

"..."

Then silence fell over the air.

"Shana certainly didn't do anything out of line." Perhaps sensing the tense atmosphere, the necklace spoke up.

"It's one thing for Shana to act recklessly, after all, she's still a child. How old are you? How can you still indulge her nonsense?" Chen Luo said.

"Hey, hey, hey, it's one thing to say I'm messing around, but you can't say I'm young. I'm old enough to be your grandmother," Shana said, dissatisfied.

"Comparing ages? Ha... then I can only say you win, Grandma Shana."

Chen Luo is only 17 years old, while Shana is already an old woman from the previous era.

"Are you here to arrest me or to annoy me?"

"You won't let me arrest you, and you won't let me get angry... Grandma Shana, you have to be reasonable."

"It's so noisy, so noisy, so noisy. I haven't done anything outrageous in this world, and I'm trying my best to complete my mission and deal with Altair. You can go back and tell my boss that I'll go back once I've dealt with Altair." Shana shook her head irritably.

"Oh. I don't believe it."

"...What do you want?"

“My mission is to capture you and take you back, but you won’t let me, so I will monitor you in this world. I can help you deal with Altair. And you should also deal with the problem of your other self as soon as possible. Or do you need me to send your other self back to the work she belongs to? I happen to know a little bit of the tricks of dimensional travel,” Chen Luo said.

“No need. But since you've said so, then Altair is in your hands. Goodbye… and thank you. I'll repay you handsomely later.” As Shana finished speaking, her figure slowly began to turn transparent.

"Please, young man," Alastor said politely, despite his aloof demeanor.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Resolve the anomaly]: Subdue Altair, whose fate has gone astray, so that he will not cause any more disruptive impact on the world.

Reward: 1000 Primogems + Crimson Lotus Karmic Fire.

Difficulty: Four stars

The commission has arrived, hasn't it?

Although it might seem like it delayed Chen Luo's completion of his identity mission, it rewarded him with a new commission.

After Shana left, Chen Luo returned to Merlin and the others.

"Chen Luo, what were you talking about with that person just now? Why did I hear a bunch of censored words?" Merlin asked curiously.

"This is how the communication between agents sounds to outsiders; they will censor some of the more important words," Chen Luo said.

If it can be easily overheard by others, then more and more people will become aware of the existence of this kind of world consciousness.

This is not a good thing for the world.

It's not a good thing for people who are aware of this existence either.

The world is vast, but when you realize that the world is also just a house, you feel cramped... even though some people never leave a province in their entire lives.

Are you an agent?

"I am a traveler representing global consciousness."

"Is this considered an agent?"

"Do you think I want this?" Chen Luo glanced at Merlin.

"Hee-hee-hee." A winged steed descended from the sky, and a golden-haired female knight, lance in hand, landed on the battlefield, breaking the silence caused by Shana's disappearance.

Looking at the heavily armored female knight who had descended from the sky, Chen Luo had a sense of déjà vu. He turned to look at Merlin and found that Merlin's expression was even stranger.

"No matter how you look at it, this child is way too much like Artoria," Merlin remarked.

Of course, Merlin was referring to the robbed Artoria.

"Artoria is a female knight whose real name is King Arthur. In the Sixth Singularity, there is indeed an Artoria wielding a long spear who bears a resemblance to the knight before us. And the knight before us is named Alice, from 'The Scarlet Alice.'" Mizushino Sota remained true to his character, acting as a competent ruler, using his skill—True Name Insight.

"What happened here?" Alicetra asked, landing on her winged horse next to Mamika Kiraki.

Clearly, Serega is in cahoots with Mamika Kiraki and is more inclined to endorse Altair's idea of ​​striking an iron fist against one's creator.

Alice was somewhat puzzled by the current situation, as the atmosphere was both tense and eerily peaceful, as if a balance had been achieved through some unknown means.

"Here's what happened... those people over there also came from another world, but their situation is a bit complicated." Mamika Kiraki pointed to Chen Luo and Merlin.

"Are they enemies?" Alice Tria asked bluntly.

"Yes and no."

"Ok?"

“These strangers do indeed intend to strike back at the creators, but the problem is that their creator is the Military Princess…” Mamika Kiraki explained.

"Huh?" Even Alice, who was always dissatisfied with her creator's description of the world she lived in, couldn't help but fall silent when she heard such an outrageous thing.

"At least that's what they say... Could there be some misunderstanding here, Mr. Holy Grail?" Mamika Kiraki asked, gripping her magic wand tightly.

"Misunderstanding? There's no misunderstanding. I just looked up some information about this world. Basically, that military princess obtained the original versions of many anime, novels, and games that don't exist in this world from someone, and then... she just posted them online. Although she wasn't the author of these works, she was indeed the creator. Even if she was just a porter, that doesn't change that fact."

"They irresponsibly spread literary works without ever considering what this means for the world they created. By the way... you know Puella Magi Madoka Magica, right? It was also released in this world by the military princess," Chen Luo said.

"The basic rule of this world is that works recognized by the public will form their own world. The word 'creator' is used very well. So... there shouldn't be any problem with me taking revenge on the Military Princess, right?" Chen Luo asked rhetorically.

"..." Merlin, who was standing next to him, felt that Chen Luo seemed to be too immersed in the role.

But all of this seems to fit the requirements of drama.

It's a pity Aha isn't here, otherwise Aha would probably be laughing even harder than Genyuan.

“This…” Mamika Kiraki looked conflicted.

That's so weird.

The situation is really strange.

"Mr. Holy Grail, is the world you live in also a world full of sorrow?" Mamika Kiraki asked cautiously.

Mamika Koki still felt that Chen Luo seemed like a good person and that he might be a good comrade-in-arms.

“Ask him,” Chen Luo said, pointing at Shui Xiaosa.

Mika Kiraki looked at Sota Mizushino, the know-it-all.

"The Type-Moon world... to put it bluntly, this world hides the author's endless malice and leaves behind endless regrets. The combined malice of all your worlds might not even equal the malice contained in the worldview of the Type-Moon world... but here I'm referring more to malice towards a particular person, rather than malice towards the world." Mizuno Sata shook his head and said.

After being bombarded by numerous works that were practically a carnival for otaku recently, Mizushino Sota really had the urge to send a knife to Setsuna's fan club when he saw Type-Moon related works.

The tragedies and regrets of the lunar world are countless.

Of course, Shui Xiaosai thinks that the more important one is actually Puella Magi Madoka Magica.

Honkai Impact 3rd seems to be a game created by Setsuna, a fan of the character.

It was released online through a special channel and has been successfully launched ever since. No one knows where the game's server is; all that is known is that anyone can log in to the server.

It's said that there are quite a lot of knives in this game.

However, this is just hearsay. A person's energy is always limited. Shui Xiaosa hasn't played Honkai Impact 3rd much... because this game has a collaboration with a game called EVA, so he has a very deep impression of the mecha in it.

"..."

Everyone fell silent at the description of Mizuno Satoshi, looking at Chen Luo with pity.

"Don't look at me like that. I'm not tragic at all; I'm just the Holy Grail. But I sense the world's sorrow, so I plan to wreak havoc in this world!"

“Perhaps Irisviel is fake, Kiritsugu Emiya is fake, Sakura Matou is fake, but Gun-hime… my friend, she is real! Go back and tell Gun-hime I’m going to send her razor blades tomorrow!” Chen Luo said to Mamika Kiraki.

"But...but you also said that she just copied these works." Mika Kiraki tried to explain.

"But if these works are not reproduced and published by her, and readers do not recognize them, then these worlds will not be created, and the tragedy will not happen."

“Alright… let’s go.” Mamika Kiraki saw that Chen Luo seemed to have made up his mind and said to Alice Tria beside her.

Mamika Kiraki is feeling very confused right now.

When your ideals conflict with those of your teammates, what should you choose?

Altair is a teammate, but everyone believes in raising an iron fist against the Creator... yet Altair is the Creator.

There is a traitor among us!
