Damn it, something's wrong with the gacha I got.

Even if Aha, who is playful, joyful, and wields the power of wills, were to come, he would be helpless.

Ah's powers encompass willpower, games, and deceptive schemes; he can alter the course of a game, arrange the Illusionary Moon Chess Game... but he cannot erase the fateful contract that has already taken effect.

The karmic consequences of Hui Shi's signing back then are already etched into his bloodline and cannot be reversed.

But just before Chen Bai, this nameless stranger from another world, stepped into this sea of ​​stars, the deep-rooted weathering curse on Himeko completely disappeared.

This is a mystery that Guiji has been unable to understand for thousands of years.

His thoughts were in disarray, drifting further and further off course, and before he knew it, Himeko had led him astray from the original topic.

No!

Guiji suddenly snapped back to reality, the patterns on the dice's head flashing intensely, and he instantly became fully awake.

His purpose today was to question the authenticity of the girl before him, and to suspect that she was an imposter from the Illusionary Creature!

How did the topic veer off course and become entangled in moral curses without us even realizing it?

"Heh, you're quite good at shifting your focus."

Gui Ji let out a soft hum, pulling himself back to reality, his tone still carrying the scrutiny and amusement of an elder.

"I do not have conclusive evidence to confirm your identity, but as your good father, can you satisfy my curiosity? Are you really Himeko?"

His doubts remained incredibly heavy.

If the Himeko before us is the real Himeko, then why did the inescapable curse of morbidity vanish into thin air?

I feel like I've missed some crucial information~

The Illusory Creation Species, the Crimson Ape, the Bear's Path, the Mysterious Path, the Visitor's Power, Aha's Joyful Fate...

Countless keywords rapidly linked together in his mind.

Suddenly, Guiji was shaken to his core and instantly realized the key weakness!

Phantom Moon Game!

That's right!

It was a game personally orchestrated by Aha, the only opportunity that Himeko had back then to leverage the power of will and alter the established cause and effect!

Himeko cleared the game "Phantom Moon" and met the Star God of Joy. At a certain cost, she made a wish that was enough to overturn her destiny, and only then was she completely freed from the shackles of the curse of decay!

Having grasped this crucial point, Guiji suddenly raised his head and spoke with unwavering resolve:

"I understand! Back then, you must have swapped places with your own illusory clone, transferring all the terrifying weathering curses to that imposter illusory creature, right?"

Faced with his accurate guess, Himeko's eyes flickered slightly, and she immediately smiled with relief, no longer hiding her true feelings.

"It seems you're not entirely stupid. Now that things have come to this, there's no need for me to keep it from everyone any longer."

As she spoke, she slowly turned her head to look at the train carriages standing side by side behind her, and with a gentle apology, she softly began to speak:

"I'm sorry, I've been keeping this from everyone."

Upon hearing this, Chen Bai gently shook his head, his tone frank and gentle:

"Himeko-nee, you're too kind of yourself~"

“We are just nameless travelers traversing the starry sky. We don’t ask about past ties or seek perfect origins. We only ask to walk the same path together. You have always been our navigator, and that has never changed.”

For the nameless traveler, the meaning of the journey has never been about dwelling on past regrets.

Rather, it is the bond of traveling together and the original aspiration of pioneering side by side.

"That's true!"

Unable to contain his curiosity, March 7th quickly stepped forward, blinking his eyes as he pressed for answers.

"But I really, really want to know what happened back then! Tell me!"

"Himeko's mom, I want to hear it too!"

Xingxiang is like a primary school student who listens attentively, obediently raising her little hand with expectant eyes.

Dan Heng, Sunday, and Walter Yang all cast gentle glances at her, waiting for her to reveal her long-buried past.

In an instant, everyone's attention was focused on Himeko.

The once-focused area has become desolate, like a roadside path left idle.

Thus, a world where only the Great Lord of Extinction was neglected was born.

"What nonsense are you spouting, child? But since that's the case, I'll tell you what happened back then..."

Himeko couldn't help but smile, and then slowly revealed the truth of what happened back then.

“Back then, I was cursed with infertility and thought I would be confined to a wheelchair for the rest of my life… Later, I saw the crashed Star Train and sketched out another version of myself in the world of the painting.”

“I named her Suzi. She is my ideal navigator, poised, intelligent and elegant.”

“During those days when I was tormented by illness, unable to get out of bed, and unable to pursue my dreams, Suzi was always by my side, encouraging me to hold on to my original aspiration to pursue my dreams.”

Himeko's gaze was distant, as if she were looking back at her younger self.

"Later, the Death Demon Catastrophe broke out, plunging the entire paradise into devastation. Motoko and I entered Aha's Phantom Moon Game together, facing the game as twins, and finally successfully met the Star God of Joy, making a wish to rewrite our destiny."

"It was Motoko who volunteered to take on all my sins and destiny. She wished to free me from the shackles of the curse so that I could board the Star Train and embark on my own pioneering journey."

"Since then, I have been in the most ideal form, carrying our shared wishes, heading to the stars to forge a new path... We also made a promise that we would meet again in fifteen years and bring my story back here."

After a gentle yet heavy recollection of the past, the entire room fell silent.

It turns out that Himeko has been carrying such a heavy past all these years.

She remains the same passionate Himeko, chasing after the stars.

Its current appearance is not a counterfeit or a substitute.

Instead, it was her best friend who sacrificed fate to give her a new life!

Chen Bai felt a quiet sense of melancholy, and inexplicably thought of the poet who used to fish on the Teyvat continent.

Wendy, or Barbatos.

The carefree, drifting wind god of fishing today is merely inheriting his friend's legacy and walking the world in his friend's guise.

In a sense, Himeko and Wendy are quite similar.

They all carried the shared aspirations of themselves and their friends, bearing the ties of the past, and embarked on a long journey that belonged to themselves and to their departed loved ones with a completely new attitude.

"so it is......"

After listening to the whole truth, Gui Jijing's golden dice head showed signs of movement, and his tone was slightly surprised.

"No wonder you no longer have the curse of decency. It seems I was wrong this time. It's quite surprising."

"Now that you know the whole truth, there's no need for further nonsense."

Himeko's voice suddenly turned cold as she pulled out her signature handheld chainsaw.

The mechanical gears spun rapidly, a deafening hum echoing through the air, as the black muzzle remained steadily aimed at the silence high above.

"No matter who you were in the past, you are now our enemy. Let's settle this with our skills!"

As soon as the words were spoken, everyone instantly went on high alert!

Everyone drew their weapons, unleashing their full power, confronting the utter silence before them.

"Tsk tsk, how heartless."

Gui Ji let out a light sigh, feigning injury, his tone still playful.

“They had just resolved their past issues, and now they’ve turned on each other. It really breaks my heart as their father.”

Before he finished speaking, he stopped hesitating and lightly snapped his fingers.

Boom!

The world in the painting was filled with swirling light and shadow, and countless phantom clones identical to Guiji surged from the void, instantly sealing off the surrounding airspace and completely encircling and trapping Chen Bai and his group.

Looking at the endless sea of ​​clones, Chen Bai snorted coldly, full of confidence and without the slightest fear.

"Outnumbering the weak? You really think we're afraid of that kind of tactic?"

His gaze was sharp, instantly seeing through the flaw, and his cold voice struck at the heart of the matter.

"You can manipulate probability and observe future possibilities, but these clones shouldn't be you, right?"

"Good eye."

Guiji looked down from the sky, his tone calm and composed, tinged with a hint of helpless candor.

"Hehe, it seems my good daughter has found out after all. But I must say, since the appearance of you, this new nameless guest, I have been unable to observe the possibilities of this world. So this old man can only try to find out."

Since Chen Bai came to this world, all possibilities regarding this world have become chaotic.

In other words, the future of the Star Train is unpredictable.

Even if it can be predicted, it cannot be observed very far away, only for the next two days, but the result is still shrouded in mystery.

In other words, he was able to disable his ability to predict any action the Nameless One would take.

Therefore, the original possibilities of creating clones and swapping spaces are no longer usable.

However, he still used his advanced illusion creation ability to enhance the [Destruction] Commander's power, and he was still able to create an avatar that was exactly the same as himself.

After speaking, he raised his hand and suddenly swung it!

"All troops attack."

Countless illusory clones instantly went berserk, swarming in from all directions!

Faced with an overwhelming offensive, the enemy remained calm and simultaneously unleashed their combat power!

"Take this!"

Chen Bai made the first move, his Aurora Sword, imbued with the divine power of the Five Elements, hurtled through the air and precisely pierced through several illusory figures.

At the same moment, Walter Yang raised his hand and released a pitch-black black hole, the gravitational field crushing the entire area and devouring and shredding large swathes of the attacking clones.

The dragon patterns on Dan Heng's body surged, and he suddenly revealed his dragon form, which was instantly washed away by a great flood.

Xing swung his bat with the power of joyful cheers, delivering a powerful blow to Old Deng.

A rainbow appeared on Sunday, a curse that brought misfortune.

In the midst of the chaos, a massive and earth-shattering war erupted.

The clones released by Guiji were also completely crushed.

But he seemed to have expected this, and spoke in a relaxed tone:

"Alright, it seems my little tricks won't work on you. In that case, I should use some real methods."

After saying that, Guiji snapped his fingers again.

The ability is activated instantly.

Then he disappeared into the cesspool.

Where did he go?

Chen Bai was stunned for a moment.

Why did they suddenly run away halfway through the fight?

Does an army capable of annihilation have such cowards?

"No, he should have returned to reality. We need to get out of here quickly. Guiji is probably going to take action against the entire Two-Phase Paradise."

Himeko's voice was very serious.

"Then it seems we need to hurry back."

Walter Yang pushed up his glasses.

"Let's set off then!"

Then, Xingshunwen opened this world in the painting.

Meanwhile, Zhenzhu was discussing matters with Yaoguang, Busitu, and Tingyun.

"Regarding the star core, I am still unable to track its whereabouts. The Lord of the Annihilation Army knows where it has been hidden."

Zhenzhu replied.
