Is Kiana in Onphalos?

She used alchemy to break taboos, hoping that her older sister could be reborn in this life.

Even though she knew her sister wouldn't remember her, it didn't matter! She hoped her sister could find happiness in this life. That would make her very happy.

but!

What she thought was, as she always thought, was just what she believed.

Unexpectedly, her decision to designate her sister as the successor to the Demigod of Death granted her even greater privileges than those of the Golden Descendants.

However, this caused her own sister to sink deeper and deeper into endless cycles of reincarnation, unable to find any liberation.

How...how despicable!

"So, what do you mean by 'parting again'?" Xia Die couldn't pretend she hadn't heard what he just said.

She asked Polycia, and she was very concerned.

Polycia remained silent for a moment, then made no attempt to hide it from her sister.

Instead, she began to recount her past relationship with Xia Die, following the story she had prepared.

"In the previous cycle... well, the previous great cycle. There was a pair of twins, both of them of the Golden Clan, and also the destined successors of Cenatos, the Gray Hand..."

“But! Cenatos is a being of balance, taking away life with one hand and guiding death with the other. His trials are always one of the twins, sacrificing himself so that the other twin can pass the test.”

Polycia's voice was somewhat deep.

She said softly.

"Back then, sister... you sacrificed yourself to give me life and make me a demigod. And then in the new world, I became the Titan of Death..."

"but!"

"I don't want a world without my sister!"

"So! I used the alchemical knowledge given to me by Calypso to initiate a forbidden exchange. I used all my strength to go against the current of the River Styx and send you to the surface of the River Styx, so that you could return to the world of the living."

Kiana gently held Xia Die's shoulder, as if to comfort her.

He simply picked up the conversation and spoke up.

"And because you are half of life, you can live forever, or you can take away life, and you can live in the world of life."

"However, Cenatos, being half-dead, completely perished the moment he came into contact with the world of the living. As a result, his body blocked the River Styx, causing it to stop flowing and his soul to wander, unable to flow downstream and enter the underworld."

"This is why the boundaries between life and death are so disordered in this generation."

“No wonder…” Xia Die opened her mouth slightly.

She paused briefly, then said somewhat hoarsely, "I have been unable to find any trace of Senatos, nor have I ever discovered any evidence of his activities in the past."

“I originally thought it was because Cenatos was special, as a being that controls life and death, it shouldn’t appear casually.”

“Who would have thought…” Senatos was actually already dead.

Xia Die didn't continue speaking.

She stopped and reached out to hug her younger sister from behind.

"Thank you for your hard work, little sister..."

“It’s alright, sister… I’m just so sorry. I didn’t do enough…” Polycia closed her eyes slightly, leaning against her sister, as if feeling her sister’s warmth.

“I had hoped that Cenatos’s blessing would give you the power to protect yourself, but this blessing, which I could not control, turned into a curse…”

“It’s alright, Polycia…” Xia Die didn’t mind.

They were whispering sweet nothings to each other, displaying the utmost tenderness.

she says.

"Although I don't remember anything, the feeling of holding you like this...it feels so familiar..."

"Thank you, Polycia. This new life has its hardships and sorrows, but also its happiness and joy..."

"I love so much."

Text: 037. Kiana: The three of us living a good life is better than anything else~

After a long time.

Xia Die had just recovered from the state of hugging Polycia from behind.

She straightened up slightly, her pretty face flushed with shyness. She glanced at Kiana beside her and saw Kiana smiling at the two of them, which made her feel even more shy.

"elder sister……"

Polycia could feel herself leaving the embrace of the butterfly.

A mix of infatuation, disappointment, and a touch of shyness filled my heart, making it pound.

She seemed guilty as well, and subconsciously glanced at Kiana, only to find that Kiana was also smiling at her, as if she was quite pleased with what had just happened between them.

She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although she didn't know why she felt relieved.

But I feel a little relieved...

She gathered her thoughts, tilted her head slightly, and looked back. "Sister... since you have no memories of the past, how about we get to know each other again?"

"it is good."

The butterfly nodded with a smile.

“My name is now Xia Die. Hello, Polycia. No, little sister... Please take care of me from now on.”

"..." Polycia pursed her lips slightly.

What about the future...?

Is there anything further...?

She knew, of course, that she was destined to disappear.

Once he gives his own spark to Xia Die, he will disappear.

But she wasn't so disappointed at that moment.

Instead, she revealed a bright smile, seemingly carefree, "Hello, sister, I'm also... Please take care of me in the future."

Kiana looked at Polycia's expression, which was like that of a fragile porcelain doll.

I couldn't help but roll my eyes in exasperation.

She walked around to Polycia's side, looked at her, and even reached out her hands to cup Polycia's small face, forcing her to look at her.

"?" Polycia did not resist.

It's so cute, like a little tiramisu.

"Now that you know everything about the world, and that Sister Xia Die and I already knew about these things... you should understand! We will absolutely not let things develop as originally planned."

"Therefore! You will survive, I said!"

Kiana stared at Polycia like a domineering CEO, appearing extremely aggressive and giving her no chance to refute.

"I know that in the original script, you would meet Sister Xia Die, and then part ways. You would leave your Titan remains to Sister Xia Die, and as a dead dragon, accompany her..."

"But! You should also know that this is not what Sister Xiadie wants."

“Yes…” Xia Die nodded slightly.

She released the armrests behind the wheelchair and went around to Polycia's side.

To take care of Polycia, she even squatted down slightly, right next to Polycia, gently holding Polycia's small hand, and looking at her with such tenderness and gentleness.

It's as if they're speaking in the soft, gentle Wu dialect.

“The past memories are gone, but that’s okay! If the memories are gone, then let’s create new ones. I want to be with Polycia, I want to live with my sister from now on…”

“I used to be all alone, but now! With Kiana by my side, I also want a younger sister, a family member, to be with me day and night…”

Xia Die's eyes were gentle, filled with a hint of hope. "So, don't give up, okay? Polycia. Please believe me, believe in Kiana."

"She's always so reassuring... If she says she'll do something, she'll find a way."

“That’s right, that’s right!” Kiana nodded seriously.

She said it lightly.

"The three of us living a good life is better than anything else!"

"?" Upon hearing this, Xia Die slowly typed out a question mark.

"..."

Polycia's eyes widened slightly, and then she chuckled.

She wasn't sure who she was answering, or if it was a double entendre, so she lowered her eyes and smiled meekly, "If... if it really were possible... I would."

In fact!

Polycia is the remaining will of the Titan of Death after its death.

Essentially, it is a kind of spiritual entity.

However, if we look at it from the perspective of Onphalus's data world...

She is Data Japan, Flag Flow Nine》〆yi??Three)VI.

He Xia Die, Bai E, or any of the others, or any human beings, are clearly no different.

and so!

Kiana doesn't even need to do anything particularly complicated.

Because once the Stigmata Project is launched, it will connect the entire Onfaros, forming a whole, a vast spiritual world.

Completely under Kiana's control.

Within the scope of the Stigmata Project, she is an absolute god.

So!

How should the data be processed? It depends on her mood.

How are you planning to arrange it? Anything is fine with me!

Whether it's the laws and settings that truly create, cycle, and change the world, or simply recompiling and rewriting them for a specific individual, it's all a piece of cake.

So don't be fooled by the fact that the Titans' powers seem so magical.

Especially with the passage of time, or death...

But you need to know this.

Because Onpharos is a data world, essentially a massive copy of data operating within the Imperial Scepter, many things that are impossible outside seem so easy here.

therefore.

It goes without saying.

Titan's authority is like a kind of administrator privilege (VI) 1衤三亻尔咎貳曰=易.

Although not the administrator of the entire Imperial Scepter, he was at least at the level of Onphalus.

Therefore, what can be done here, cannot be done outside.

Therefore, not only individuals here, but also those who have not yet become true life, cannot leave Onphalus.

Even the authority and power here cannot be taken to the outside world.

Even the golden blood within the Golden Descendants, so closely linked to Nanuk, is ultimately just a simulation.

but!

Because all of this is data, simulation, and information piled up to form a realistic environment.

Conversely, things that are unimaginable to outsiders are not necessarily impossible in this world.

it is known.

In this world, the past, present, and future, what we call time and years, are not linear.

They are even parallel, disruptive, and occur simultaneously.

Just like the constant eternal recurrence in the original work, the hero in Bai'e's heart was probably not determined at first, but why did they all feel that the pioneers from beyond the heavens were the heroes in their hearts?
