"There weren't any puppets in the grand theater before..."

The robin whispered its defense, trying to uphold Pinocchio's aesthetics.

But as they approached the center of the stage and saw the only person standing there, she, along with the other girls who were prepared to face the dream master, all showed a look of astonishment.

The person on stage was not the dream master Gofemu, but Sunday.

He turned away, not looking at the robin, nor at the extremely threatening Void Commander Huang Quan, or anyone else.

On Sunday, look directly at Hua Yi.

“I will fly up into the sky and become the sun. All people will grow vigorously in my light, and all evil will have nowhere to hide.”

The epic eulogy is imbued with religious overtones.

In this universe where star gods truly exist, there are countless factions that worship them.

But what is recited on Sundays is by no means the Harmony Ode, or any other movement belonging to the Harmony category.

Hua Yi remained calm and was not surprised by Sunday's final appearance.

"The fact that you're about to take off into the sky means you haven't even flown yet. If I were to ask Huang Quan to draw his sword and give you a blow right now, it might bring the finale to an early conclusion?"

"indeed."

On Sunday, he nodded calmly. Seeing Hua Yi's smile, his own solemnity softened, and he bowed slightly, placing his hand on his chest in a gesture of respect.

“But you will not do that. There is another path, different from [harmony], a more orderly vision than what the family does, and I would like you to witness it here.”

Gopherwood wasn't the only one who chose the other path.

And Sunday is still a long way off...

Chapter 570 Martyrs - Sunday

As long as Hua Yi doesn't speak, Huang Quan, Jing Liu, and the other girls certainly won't be the first to make a move and push this stage play into the battle phase.

If you truly want to eliminate the enemy as quickly as possible, you shouldn't be talking like this, giving the other party time to prepare.

However, just as he waited specifically for Sunday without "becoming the sun in the sky" on his own, Hua Yi was also willing to reciprocate.

Give him the opportunity to express his ideas.

"When I was a child, the robin and I were adopted by Mr. Gopher, and we spent a carefree childhood."

On Sundays, we reminisce about the past.

"Until one day, a lonely harbinger pigeon landed in the courtyard. It was a fledgling bird, its feathers not yet fully grown, and it couldn't sing. When I found it, it was lying in the grass, barely alive."

What are the reactions of children when they encounter pitiful little animals?

Of course, we should try to take care of it.

“I once decided to build a bird’s nest for it, but after thinking it over, I realized that winter was very cold that year, the wind was strong in the courtyard at night, and there were poisonous insects and wild animals around.”

Hua Yi was listening quietly to Sunday's story when he noticed that Sunday was staring at him after he finished speaking, as if waiting for something. He immediately spoke up.

"So you brought the playful pigeon home?"

"Yes, if the fledgling was left in the yard, it would have no chance of surviving until spring. I took it back and asked the adults to build a birdcage, thinking that I would let it return to the sky when it was able to spread its wings and soar on its own."

I will consult Hua Yi on Sunday.

"Would you choose to build a bird's nest in your yard, or bring it home and put it in a birdcage?"

“Take it home. If the little Harmony Pigeon is left in the wild without its parents to care for it, it will starve or freeze to death, even if it is not attacked by poisonous insects or wild animals.”

Hua Yi provided an answer.

The robin beside him had curved eyes.

The girl also remembered the story of the playful pigeon; she had chosen to bring it home back then.

Now, when Hua Yixuan hears the same answer, this seemingly like-minded situation makes the robin secretly happy.

On Sunday, however, he keenly noticed the details of the wording.

I just brought it home, I didn't say I'd put it in a birdcage...

"Back then, both I and the robin chose to bring the little harpy pigeon home and take good care of it until we felt it had recovered its health and was able to fly, then we opened the cage."

The robin was puzzled when it heard about Sunday.

"The Harmonious Pigeon did indeed fly into the sky. What message did you want to convey by telling this story, brother?"

"You don't know the real ending—that evening, I saw the cold body of the Harmonious Pigeon on the windowsill. It had failed, fallen from the sky, and regained its freedom, but couldn't even save its life."

"!"

That Sunday, I quietly buried the Harmonious Pigeon without telling the Robin, so as not to upset my sister.

This is the elder brother's responsibility.

Now, the child has grown up, and the robin, who had been shot in the neck and narrowly escaped death, is no longer alone, as Hua Yi is by his side.

The decision was made on Sunday to reveal the brutal truth.

"The birdcage deprives the joyful pigeon of its freedom, but it also protects it. Mr. Hua Yi, which do you think is more valuable, survival or freedom?"

"This shouldn't be a multiple-choice question."

Hua Yi gave the robin beside him a comforting look, then turned to meet Sunday's gaze.

"To be frank, the leap between releasing the birdcage and letting it fly into the blue sky is too great for the Harmonious Pigeon. There should also be an option of closing the windows and letting the Harmonious Pigeon try flying at home. The height of the room is much safer than the sky."

"That was my oversight; I made a mistake."

He nodded in agreement on Sunday.

"But some birds are destined not to be good at flying. No matter how hard they try, they can't learn the skill of soaring in the sky. They can only stay indoors. Isn't that another kind of birdcage?"

"It's clear you've thought this through carefully."

Looking at Sunday's calm yet resolute face, Hua Yi continued speaking.

"Replacing the harmonious pigeon with a human, and using pinocene pens to replace birdcages and houses, seems to reflect your philosophy of life."

"Yes. I think that Pinocchio under [Tong Xie]'s rule is far from being a safe haven."

When the train crew arrived in Pinocchio, they came forward on Sunday to say that all expenses would be covered by the family.

This spending record, along with the reports from the members of the Hound team, became the arguments he used to persuade Hua Yi.

"You have visited many shops in the Aude Shopping Center and must have witnessed it firsthand—in this dreamlike place, there are still shop assistants and vendors busy working, wasting their lives for a few alfalfa bills, and not enjoying the real dream."

“I witnessed it. From afar, Pinocchio’s dream looked like dazzling starlight, but up close you realized it was a fire fueled by fuel…”

Hua Yi looked at Sunday, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes.

"As the head of the Oak family, you are able to understand the people's sentiments and comprehend the hardships of ordinary people despite your high position. You are excellent and kind."

"..."

On Sunday, I noticed Hua Yi's attitude.

He felt as if he had met a kindred spirit, and if it weren't for the occasion and timing, he would have loved to raise a glass of red wine and have a long chat with Hua Yi.

"You really do understand me."

Take a deep breath and be honest about the path you've taken on Sunday.

"The harmony of the family failed to create a perfect dream, and naturally it was always accompanied by plunder and sacrifice, so I chose its opposite, order."

That was another destiny.

It is said that the Order Star God Taiyi has disappeared and was assimilated and absorbed by the Harmony Star God Xipe.

Fate seemed to have played a terrible joke on us.

Once, Harmony merged with Order, but now, the Oak family, headed by the Pinocchio branch of the Harmony faction, is doing the opposite.

To abandon [harmony] and choose [order].

"What I want to do is precisely this: to bring the happiness of all beings under a single [order]. Only when people no longer have to make bitter choices, no longer have to confront the weaknesses of human nature, and have shed their beastly habits can a paradise belonging to humankind be established."

On Sunday, he stared intently at Hua Yi.

"In my view, the ideal social system should be a seven-day weekend. The day after Sunday is the second, the third, and even the eternal Sunday. This is the face of the new world 4.9, a day of eternal peace and inaction."

Thus, everyone can return to their rightful place in the paradise.

Looking up at the Milky Way, I focused intently on calculating the distance between the starting point of the galactic orbit and us.

Living a leisurely life, without having to shoulder any extra responsibilities.

Everyone can live happily in the paradise, without having to worry about food, clothing, shelter, or transportation.

That is, the ideal state.

Hua Yi seemed to have anticipated this: "So, what is the price?"

"The price is negligible. To maintain paradise for all, someone must remain in solitary lucidity until the end of the universe—if the starlight of dreams is a flame that must be sustained by fuel, I am willing to be that only fuel."

The culprit?

This word does not accurately describe Sunday.

Standing at the center of the grand theater stage was only one martyr.

Chapter 571 The Choir Resounds, Sunday

Pinocone is much larger than a house.

In the vast universe, countless people spend their entire lives without ever leaving their planet or even their city.

Pinocchio's dream has been realized; the twelve-hour event encompasses everything, and the star of the event attracts countless interstellar travelers.

If Sunday can usurp the power of harmony and evolve the great power of order, he will become the sun and the only fuel.

At that time, everyone will be able to enjoy the eternal dream.

Why does life sleep? Because people are afraid to wake up from their dreams.

Respect Hua Yi on Sunday.

His character and abilities are both admirable.

The Harmonious Envoy, who can unite all forces, has been doing things of salvation all along. Apart from the minor flaw of having a lot of girls around him, he is simply a philosopher-king who matches the ideal state.

That's why Sunday hopes that Hua Yi will recognize her ideas.

What is your assessment of this?

He only asked Hua Yi a question.

Is sinking into a beautiful dream, waiting until 16, the same as abandoning reality?

If a dream is 100% real, is the person in the dream experiencing a painful nightmare, or is the person in reality choosing to escape reality?

This is a philosophical topic, enough to warrant a long debate.

At this moment, not only Sunday, but also Robin, Huang Quan, Jing Liu and others are waiting for Hua Yi's answer.

Facing the gazes of many, Hua Yi forced a smile.

“I said, Sunday.”

"Hmm?" He waited for an answer.

"If you directly announce your ideas and hold a referendum in Pinocone, or even the entire Asdna system, I think the vast majority of people would rather fall into such a beautiful dream and not want to work hard anymore."

Only heroes possess the courage and ability to overcome numerous difficulties.

Ordinary people are not that strong; escaping reality and choosing dreams is not shameful.

Who doesn't love the classic story of the hero fighting the dragon? And who wouldn't fantasize about becoming a hero?

But in reality, the vast majority of ordinary people can only be villagers in stories.

They can't even become the village chief of a beginner's village, or the blacksmith who forges weapons and equipment for adventurers in their early stages of development.
