I am the savior, but I am being asked by Alicia and the others to pay me back.

"I'm sorry... Teacher Jizi..."

Kiana, in tears, looked exactly the same as she did in the studio, even the words she said were the same.

"I know... I know that at a time like this... I should say goodbye to you with a smile... I should walk out of that door bravely..."

Just like in the performance studio, Kiana in the game even found it difficult to speak normally.

"I know this is just a remnant of memory. Reality is where I should go back to."

"But I still can't help but think..."

The voice was distorted, the breath collapsed, and the sobs eventually turned into outright crying.

"As long as I don't walk out of that door...will time never pass..."

"At this moment...will it not change..."

At that moment, the belated barrage finally exploded.

[Qia still can't bear to let go]

[How could I be willing to give it up?]

[I'm too naive. I can't face this kind of thing with a smile.]

Because the fingers were shaking too much, or because the eyes were blurred by tears, there were many typos in the audience's comments.

[No, I couldn’t hold back when Qibao was crying]

[Qibao and I cried together. We really couldn’t stand it.]

[Smiling and saying goodbye sounds good, but who can really do it?]

[Teacher Jizi...my Jizi...will never come back QAQ]

The audience who had previously sworn that they had guessed the plot were all severely slapped in the face.

But they found that the pain that made them cry did not seem to come from their face.

"Is this what happened in the studio?"

Bronya, Fu Hua and the others took a deep breath and finally understood what happened and why Kiana's face was covered with tears when she came out.

In the game, Kiana was crying with tears streaming down her face:

"I didn't even get a chance to say goodbye to you..."

"I obviously have a lot more to say to you... I haven't fulfilled those promises I made."

"This is a dream. I know I will wake up from the dream..."

"I will go back, defeat the Thousand Herrscher, and bring Mei home..."

"The Eleventh Ruler, the Twelfth Ruler, even the Ruler of the Final Verification, I will defeat them all..."

"I will turn this imperfect story into what we expect it to be."

"I just...want you to see all this..."

Everyone in the studio thought that as participants, they would be able to control their emotions to some extent.

But when he saw Kiana crying, he couldn't help it and began to wipe his tears secretly.

The room was suddenly filled with sobbing sounds, echoing Kiana's crying in the game.

"Of course I can see it."

Jizi stroked Kiana's head and soothed her in the gentlest voice possible:

"Because I am in your heart."

The picture stopped and the lines stopped.

The only sound in the game was Kiana's uncontrollable crying.

That was the most realistic "performance" recorded by Ye Ming in the performance studio.

[How did the voice actors come up with this? They are so strong]

[Isn’t this acting? I feel like I really cried]

[His voice broke down, he must have really cried]

[I didn’t expect the actors to be so involved]

Ye Ming looked at the comments, then looked at Kiana who was looking reluctant, and couldn't help but chuckle.

“How could the sense of immersion not be strong?”

328. Pride is to carry out your beliefs

"You remind me of my childhood..."

When she said this, everyone heard a noticeable rise and fall in Ji Zi's voice.

It is a process of being on the verge of crying, then calming down, and finally becoming gentle.

"At my mother's funeral, I cried so hard that the world turned dark, and I hugged my father and refused to leave."

"After a long, long time, my father touched my head and said to me..."

"It's okay, Jizi, mom will turn into a star and watch over us in the sky."

Jizi chuckled and said:

"Father never expresses these things. Even his words of comfort are so clumsy."

"But until now, I still believe what he said."

"Kiana, as long as you believe... I will turn into a star and protect you in the night sky."

“Even if the torch will go out and the moon will lose its brilliance, this unchanging glimmer will still light the way for you to move forward.”

"So, don't be afraid, I haven't left you..."

“Becoming a force for students to move forward is the most romantic destination for teachers.”

“Everything will pass, everything will change, even if this change will take away your whole world.”

"But it doesn't matter. It is also the most powerful force in the world. It is a force that can open up hope and a path for anyone."

“When you are confused, just look up at the starry sky. I want to be there to light up the whole dark night for you.”

Although he had already watched it once as a bystander, Ye Ming was still deeply moved when he saw this.

If it weren't for me, this would be the last time they would meet.

Kiana was so reluctant, and Himeko was so gentle. They had both been through so much, and the happy time was the reward they had earned.

But in the end, Kiana still lost Himeko, just like fate never makes sense.

—So you changed all that, didn’t you?

"Yeah, but if I knew what happened here at the time, I would have been more excited when I beat that guy."

The "that guy" here does not refer to Xilin, who is also manipulated by fate, but the existence that manipulates fate itself.

"I have to go now……"

In the game, Kiana, who had already decided to move forward, gently took half a step back and recovered from the remaining warmth of Ji Zi's hand.

"Take a step forward, Kiana. Just move forward boldly."

"I will always bless you and watch over you, after all..."

"You are my student, Muliangta Himeko!"

Ji Zi's final smile also gave Kiana the final strength.

"Goodbye, Teacher Jizi."

After the conversation, the game entered free control mode.

The picture turned into that white space again.

At the end of the corridor, there is a door that looks like chocolate.

Players need to control Kiana to walk out of the door and say goodbye to Himeko completely.

[Do I still need to walk by myself? ]

Kill me!

[You cut open my abdomen, and you still want me to personally intervene? 】

[Can I be a human being?]

[I won't leave. My Kiana will live here.]

[But that’s not possible. Himeko has already taught us.]

"..."

"..."

Eden's character stayed there, her fingers trembling, and she couldn't calm down for a long time, just like the millions of viewers in front of the screen.

"Eden, are you okay?"

Alicia leaned over to Eden and asked with concern:

"If you feel uncomfortable, take a rest."

"I just didn't expect that I could break through defense like this even though I already knew the outcome."

Eden’s words immediately resonated with the audience.

When players learned that this chapter was about saying goodbye to Himeko, they had actually imagined countless possibilities and countless scenes.

However, what no one expected was that the farewell was really just a farewell. Kiana and Himeko talked face to face, simply and plainly.

What they didn't expect was that, with the outcome already known, a few not-too-long conversations could break down their defenses to this extent.

"It seems like what Jizi said to Kiana was also said to me."

Compared to the pain of separation, Eden also has his own unique feelings.

“Her perspective on change really shocked me.”

“I have always believed that sticking to one’s heart is the most important thing. Even if the world pushes me to move forward, there are things I will never compromise on.”

"That's my pride, and it's something I intend to stick to. If it were me, I might disappoint Himeko."

Alicia probably understood the reason for Eden's complicated mood.

Ji Zi's teachings were so sincere and touching that even Eden could not help but nod in agreement.

But this is inconsistent with her usual style of doing things, so there is a contradiction mixed in with the sadness.

"Eden, things are not what you think."

Alicia soothed softly:

"I have seen too many farewell scenes in works, all of which use large sections to express reluctance to leave."

"Only Jizi is different, or even just the opposite."

"She has been consoling Kiana, asking her to say goodbye to the past and to muster up the courage to move forward."

"I think such a Jizi must be that special existence."

Alicia changed the subject and looked at Eden and said:

"So are you, you, me, everyone, each of us is special."

"We can have different beliefs and different attitudes towards life, but it has nothing to do with right or wrong."

"What's important is that we will believe in that belief and carry it through with pride. Isn't that the most important thing?"

Eden looked at Alicia in surprise at first, then laughed softly.

"Well, Ellie, you're right."

"If it were me, even if I were abandoned by the world, I would take my pride with me into the grave."

Eden gained strength from Alicia's smile and focused on the game again.

This time, it's time to control Kiana and carry out her beliefs.
