Miss Player, please don't cast spells on me.

"The reason I invited Sayaka-senpai here today is... to discuss something important."

Kiyono Ash placed a cup of green tea in front of the world-destroying witch and said.

"Did you come here today to show off to me?"

Sayaka gently rotated her fingertips on the spout of the teacup as she asked.

"Are you going to brag about finally winning over that senior Takigami's heart, or are you going to boast to me that the stage of 'Dungeon Sanctuary 2' is now completely under your control?"

Isn't your jealousy a bit too much?

"Actually, Sayaka-senpai, today... I actually came to you... to 'borrow some things'."

Kiyono Hai simply spread his hands and made a request to Sayaka that instantly made her look disgusted.

Because before Sayaka received Kiyono Hai's invitation, she had already considered this possibility, this... possibility that she found most repulsive.

Sayaka already thought it was strange enough that Kiyono Hai would invite her at this time.

Unlike that silly girl Rena, who really thought that Kiyono Hai was just an ordinary junior, a new god with no scheming or inner strength, who at most was a little darker when writing scripts, and was good at deceiving girls.

Sayaka could tell that Kiyono Hai was the kind of guy who would use any means necessary to achieve his goal.

So in Sayaka's eyes... Kiyono Hai's invitation was more like a trap, or rather, using Rena to command her.

As that fox lady said before, both she and "Sanctuary Sanctuary 2" are now at the point where they can't survive without Kiyono Gray.

How can Kiyono Hai maximize the use of Takigami Rena's attachment, or rather, her dependence?

The answer, of course, is to use this to blackmail the world-destroying witch who is equally obsessed with Miss Fox, forcing her to provide benefits for herself.

This tactic is so despicable; it's like taking nude photos and videos of a girl and then threatening her to obey you or you'll post them online.

"What a despicable and ugly tactic! I thought you would be more principled than I imagined!"

The black aura rising from Sayaka's body was almost solidifying.

Even the teacup in front of her cracked under her terrifying aura.

"Go ahead."

However, Sayaka suppressed her murderous intent and asked Kiyono Hai a very classic question.

"How much faith power do you want? Let's agree on a one-time payment! If you dare to use this as a reason to threaten me or Rena again, no matter how heartbroken Rena will be afterward, I will not allow you to remain in her sight!"

"Huh... Kiyono Hai realized at this moment that his joke had been misunderstood by this world-destroying witch, so he quickly spread his hands and showed the line of words representing wishes to Sayaka.

"Sayaka-senpai, I apologize for the joke I made before. The main reason I asked you to come here today is to discuss a solution to this problem," Kiyono Hai said.

"Wish: Kiyono Gray becomes a deity belonging to 'Dream City' upon the fulfillment of his wish. Wish fulfillment time: 7:12:23"

"The wish made by the gods of the dream city..." Upon seeing this line of text, Sayaka's murderous intent did not diminish but instead became even more pronounced. "So, all those guys know is this kind of despicable method?"

"So, Sayaka-senpai, do you have any solutions?"

Kiyono Gray began to subtly and persuasively question this world-destroying witch.

"..."

Instead of responding to Kiyono Hai, Sayaka asked him a very interesting question.

Why don't you ask Rena-chan for help?

“Well… Takigami-senpai just withstood the attack of that God of Slaughter, and I’m not sure if her faith power reserves are enough to withstand the gods of the Dream City.” Kiyono Hai gave Sayaka a seemingly normal reason.

Unfortunately, this wasn't the answer Sayaka wanted to hear...

"Then you should also ask Rena-chan for help."

Sayaka stared directly into Kiyono Hai's pupils as she spoke.

“Rena must have told you before, right? No matter what happens, she will try to save you. You have to fulfill her wish to save you now! Otherwise, if anyone else tries to save you, it will be like hurting her heart.”

Perhaps no one is more qualified to say this than Sayaka, just like Sayaka in the past.

For Rena Takigami... Hai Kiyono saved her life, and not only that, Hai Kiyono also saved her followers and her 'family'.

This immense kindness was something Miss Fox wanted to repay Qingye Hui for no matter the cost, no matter what it took.

This desire to repay Kiyono Hai's kindness has now become an obsession and a form of greed for Takigami Rena!

Sayaka understood very well that if someone else took away this opportunity to repay Kiyono Hai's kindness, it would be an extremely sad and unacceptable thing for that fox lady.

For Sayaka, having Takigami Rena successfully repay her debt of gratitude was the best way to sever her lingering feelings for Kiyono Hai, so…

"If you want to ask for help, go ask Rena-chan for help. Don't worry... I will also provide Rena-chan with the power of faith as a bargaining chip to counter this wish. There is no difference between the two."

Sayaka wanted to use the favor of saving Kiyono Hai to win over her friend Rena, hoping to make her completely devoted to Kiyono Hai, but unfortunately...

"Sayaka-senpai, could you please stop worrying about Takigami Rena-senpai? I came here specifically to ask for your help, and only you can help me," Kiyono Hai said with a smile.

In an instant, Sayaka understood the hidden meaning behind Kiyono Hai's words: 'I came to you to save me because I wanted to hurt Takigami Rena-senpai!'

These words successfully provoked the world-destroying witch. Sayaka stood up, walked up to Kiyono Hai, grabbed him by the collar, and cornered him against the wall with one hand.

"Tell me, what is your true purpose?"

Sayaka slapped Kiyono Hai's cheek with one hand, questioning him in a highly oppressive wall-slamming position.

"Let me give you the simplest example. If I told Takigami-senpai about my 'wish,' what would she do? She would definitely exhaust all her faith power to counter this wish!"

Of course, Kiyono Hai knew that the rule for gods to counter a wish was to increase the burden layer by layer. For example, the wish made by the gods of Dream City to make Kiyono Hai belong to Dream City would require 10,000 points of faith power.

To counter this wish, one would need 10,001 points, but the gods of the Dream City can continue to counter it accordingly, directly raising the price to 20,000 points.

With such escalating pressure, the Fox God would definitely exhaust all his faith power in order to counter this wish.

"Then I..."

“Even with your assistance, Sayaka-senpai, it’s meaningless, because the goal of Dream City is to weaken Sayaka-senpai and Takigami-senpai’s power through this method,” Kiyono Hai said.

"Then what do you want to do?"

When Sayaka heard this, she really couldn't refute Kiyono Hai's analysis.

"I intend to make this wish come true."

As Kiyono Hai reached out to touch Sayaka's cheek, Sayaka grabbed his wrist.

"The option to surrender to 'Dream City' will only make Rena even more heartbroken!" Sayaka said with a serious expression.

"I have no intention of surrendering to Dream City. On the contrary, I want to take this opportunity to completely destroy Dream City, or more precisely, destroy the rule of the two main gods in the past and present of Dream City! In order to achieve this goal, I need to rely on your power, Senior Sayaka, so... Senior Sayaka."

As Kiyono Hai finished speaking, Sayaka released her grip on Kiyono Hai's wrist, allowing Kiyono Hai's hand to touch her cheek.

Kiyono Hai's voice also carried a hint of magic that could corrupt a witch.

"Just forget about Rena-chan, and then... let's go to the next, even more dazzling stage together!"

No, it should be said that it was precisely because of her Rena-chan that this world-destroying witch was even more determined to burn that dream city full of children's dreams to ashes!

Chapter 67 The Terrifying Yet Useless GM Permissions

Sayaka agreed with Kiyono Hai's decision, which sounded crazy and risky.

But she still wanted to figure out exactly how Kiyono Ash planned to carry out her plan.

"I only have some ideas about this for now. I need to go to Dream City and investigate in detail before I can tell you, Senior Sayaka."

Kiyono Hai currently has no idea about the specific situation inside Dream City. Even if he has the story blueprint of "Puella Magi Madoka Magica", he can't just force it onto the subsequent development of "Dream City".

It's like how, although the story of "Dungeon Sanctuary 2" has elements of Undertale, the experience of playing "Rose Kingdom" is actually quite different from the story of Undertale.

It's possible that only after the public beta launch will players who haven't played "Rose Kingdom" be able to experience "Dungeon Sanctuary 2," which is closer to the story of "Undertale."

In short, Kiyono Hai understands that stage performances are not like filming a TV drama or simply following a script step by step.

Players often participate in the script as 'actors' rather than 'audience'.

Therefore, if Kiyono Ash really wants to understand the players' minds, she needs to guide them into the pre-set script traps based on their possible actions and reactions.

Although it sounded a bit hard to understand, Sayaka seemed to grasp the underlying meaning of Kiyono Hai's words: "Give me a little more time."

This made Sayaka sigh wearily, then she flicked her finger and used a portion of her faith to make a wish, extending the deadline for fulfilling the wish of 'turning Kiyono Gray into a pet of the gods in the dream city' by another twenty-four hours.

"Then I'd like to thank you in advance for your help, Sayaka-senpai."

As a thank you, Qingye Hui brewed another cup of green tea for the senior student and then continued to ask questions.

"By the way, I'd also like to ask you, senior, what powers you, as the World-Destroying Witch, possess in 'Dream City,' and what powers Ms. Shiina Akane possesses in 'Dream City'? Please don't hide anything from me; this is crucial to breaking the current situation."

Even if Kiyono Hai really became a god loyal to "Dream City", he would probably only be able to obediently become the magical girls' pet.

Let alone writing the plot of "Dream City", it's already a blessing that I can still maintain a human form.

That's why Kiyono Hai needs to rely on the power of Sayaka and Shiina Akane. One is a world-destroying witch who can make the whole world tremble with fear, and the other is one of the main gods of this world.

Even though they have been away from "Dream City" for three years, they should still have some power that can influence the stage of "Dream City", that is, the so-called GM authority.

"You can think of my permissions simply as 'destruction'. The application of this permission that makes the operators most afraid is probably... 'deleting player accounts'."

Sayaka directly stated the biggest reason why she could be called the 'World-Destroying Witch', and she took a sip of the green tea in her cup before continuing.

"However, if I use this power without the player's consent, even deleting a single account will consume a lot of my power. Given the huge player base of 'Dream City' now, this ability may be the most useless."

"What if the player agrees? What if they click the 'I'm willing to delete my account' button?"

Kiyono's summary of Sayaka's powers or GM privileges was also accurate: it was simply an option to 'delete account'.

"Do you think players are idiots? They've painstakingly built up their game accounts over so many years. Even if they've quit the game now, they wouldn't choose such an extreme method as deleting their accounts to leave."

At this moment, Sayaka-senpai did not hide her aggressiveness; she was mocking Kiyono Hai for being too unrealistic.

"That's hard to say. If the storyline is well-developed, players might even sacrifice their game saves to save one or a group of people, just to take a bullet for the person they want to save," said Kiyono.

"Is... this really possible?"

Perhaps this doomsday witch, who once stood completely against the players, could not understand why the players would sacrifice their painstakingly developed accounts in order to save that NPC.

"I'm not so sure right now, and I think it's more feasible to guide players to transfer their game characters in 'Dream City' to other games rather than deleting their accounts."

Kiyono knew that the two assets that the gods of "Dream City" valued most were, firstly, the "reputation" of the game as a children's game, which might be the lifeblood for the survival of "Dream City".

The second is probably the accounts that players have spent countless hours building up in "Dream City".

Based on these two points, Kiyono Hai continued to press this senior, Sayaka.
