You think you're worthy of saving the world?

"Humph……"

Rosalia blushed and turned her head away as if to hide her embarrassment.

"It's okay if you didn't tell me. But thank you anyway, it was very helpful... Well, I'm going to take a shower now."

She supported herself with her delicate, lotus-root-like arms and got up from the bed.

"Wait, wait, I'll go too."

Rosalia looked at Yuri meaningfully: "Want to come together?"

"of course yes."

"There's really nothing I can do about you."

If Patty and the others find out, it won't be so easy for Yuri to freely enter and leave the Grand Duke's mansion again.

Therefore, when leaving the room, you must make sure that there is no one else in the hallway.

Yuri told Rosalia to go out first, and then he would keep watch for him.

While remaining vigilant about their surroundings, they quietly made their way to the bathroom.

"Wait a minute, let me go in and check the situation first."

There were no suspicious people or items in the locker room.

Yuri beckoned Rosalia to come in, and the two went into the bathroom—

"Your Highness, Lord Euryphus, what are you two doing?"

In the bathroom, Patty was cleaning the floor tiles with a mop.

"Master, may I borrow this Lord Euryphus for a moment?"

Patty grabbed Yuri's wrist, and Rosalia smiled.

"Hmm, it's okay."

"Your Highness, save me!!!"

……

……

……

The following day at noon, Yuri brought Stella to the Trial Sanctuary.

Today is the day we agreed to challenge the singularity together, and Chaika is making her first appearance on the St. Cromwell campus.

"Hmph, she's really popular... No wonder she's a talented woman from Academy City. Even on the side of the Church, which is opposed by faith, she still has so many fans."

The silver-haired witch looked into the distance, where Chaika was surrounded by students from the seminary.

The students there had all come specifically because they heard she would be showing up today.

In the gerontocracy of the magical world, the young and beautiful Chaika is a legendary star.

Yuri even wondered if Chaika might also be a witch.

Otherwise, it's impossible to explain how she could have advanced to the eighth rank at such a young age.

However, after learning more about the inside story from various sources, Yuri denied this speculation.

There are still geniuses like Chaika in this world.

Moreover, unlike Rosalia, who is an all-around genius, Chaika is the kind of person who takes a more unconventional approach.

Aside from her theoretical knowledge of magic, her abilities are those of an ordinary person or even below that of an ordinary person, and she is not even good at practical magic combat.

The fact that she would propose challenging the simulated singularity together in order to win over Yuri shows her determination at this moment.

"Ah...it's Euryphus!"

Chaika noticed Yuri and Stella in the distance and waved to them.

The students spontaneously made way for Yuri and her group.

Jiaika greeted them cheerfully: "Nice to meet you today, Euryphus and Stella."

Yuri smiled and replied, "Nice to meet you."

Stella remained as indifferent as ever: "Hmm."

"Is this your first time using the simulated singularity device? Let me give you a brief explanation."

Standing in front of the enormous instrument, Jaika began her explanation.

Besides Yuri and Stella, many other students were listening to the explanation.

Gaika was also part of the design team for the Imaginary Number Calculus Laplace, and it was a very rare experience to hear about it from the designers.

"The biggest difference between simulated singularities and real singularities lies in security."

Even if you die within the simulated singularity, it won't affect you in the real world... Of course, you might have nightmares that night!

The students burst into laughter.

With a gentle expression, Chaika continued, "In the simulated singularity, the highest rank that can be allowed is only the fifth rank; anything above the fifth rank will be locked."

"Oh, really? This is the first time I've heard of this!" a student exclaimed.

Chaika nodded: "That's right, after all, a dream created using simulation equipment has its limits..."

Among the students of St. Cromwell, there were very few even at the third rank, so it's not surprising that they were unaware of the limitations of the fifth rank.

Simply put, it's like the punching machines used in arcades to test punching power?

Yuri thought to himself, "Of course, no machine can be without an upper limit to its values."

Chaika is an eighth-order rank, and after entering the simulated singularity, she will be forcibly restricted to the fifth-order rank.

Stella and Yuri are currently both fourth-order, and they will remain fourth-order even after entering the simulated singularity.

Jaika shook her head: "This limit is not the input limit of the calculation mechanism, but the output limit for the user."

For the user's psychological safety, the output power of the simulated singularity is limited to the fifth order.

“I see, security is indeed very important,” Yuri murmured.

"After all, when we're designing, we not only have to consider combat geniuses like Euryphus, but also the experience of ordinary people~"

After Jia Yika said that, the surrounding students burst into laughter again.

"Are the scenes in the simulated singularities the same as the real singularities?" a student asked, voicing the question everyone was most concerned about.

Jaika nodded: "I can't say for sure about that either, but that's how it seems for now."

After a brief explanation, the three of them entered their respective spaces.

The so-called space is actually a fully enclosed room located directly below the machine, somewhat like a cockpit seen in robot anime.

The simulation device in the Trial Sanctuary can only allow up to four people to play together, but this time there were only three challengers.

Yuri sank into the leather seat, lying down at a 140-degree angle.

The space above reflected a beautiful, dreamlike scene, like a starry sky.

"..."

The stars seemed to move around in a certain pattern before Yuri's eyes, making him feel intensely drowsy.

Soon after, that nostalgic, emotionless, cold female voice slowly echoed in his mind.

Singularity: The Ancient Crimson Festival

150 The Witch's Legacy, the Island Where the Dragon God is Worshipped

Singularity: The Ancient Crimson Festival

[Background Explanation ①: People sometimes despise her and sometimes revere her, calling her the "Dragon Priestess".]

On a remote island far from the mainland, the people who lived peacefully there once suffered from disasters.

Therefore, they made a pact with the Dragon God, and under his protection, they were reborn and gradually prospered.

The girl is the last descendant of a priestess family, the only one on the island capable of understanding the dragon's will. She and her ancestors have served the island's dragon for generations.

The girl's duties include cleaning the Dragon Temple, listening to the gods' admonitions, and...

A young girl is offered as a sacrifice to the Dragon God during the monthly "Crimson Festival," a ceremony to express gratitude to the gods.

[Background Information ②: Your identity is a folklorist from mainland China.]

To explore the island's history and the truth about the Dragon God, they ventured into the island with their companions.

[Background Information ③: Protect yourself, but don't easily hurt others.]

[Rank: Fifth Order - Simulation]

Number of participants: three

Audience Mode: Off

【Victory Condition 1: Investigate the truth about the Dragon God and the Priestess】

[Failure Condition: None]

"Crimson Festival"...?

Yuri frowned slightly.

The fact that this term has appeared indicates that this instance is definitely not one he has played in the game.

After all, the evil god named "Crimson" was created by Yuri himself.

Is this singularity related to the "Crimson Witch"? Could it be a sequel to Witch's Night?

No, there shouldn't be any further developments in the Witch's Night storyline.

"Crimson Witch" has left the material world and entered the Star Realm as the Evil Goddess and Witch Queen.
