He changed Tiwat

If that's the case, what's wrong with saying they are characters in a novel, whose fates are manipulated by an unseen hand?

The divine child had already found the answer: "...Those who are inside the book cannot change their own destiny. Their destiny is always in the hands of the 'author'."

"If you want to change your destiny, you have to take the 'pen' yourself."

A glint of light flickered in her purple, vertical pupils.

"—So, the choice Sister Shin made back then was to step outside of this world!"

"Yes." Han Fulai nodded, his eyes full of satisfaction.

The Son of God always exceeds his expectations.

How fortunate it is to have such a smart ally and "family member".

He turned to Lei Yingdian, who was still somewhat bewildered, and said, "General, in your impression, is your sister, Princess Leidianzhen, an irresponsible person?"

“Of course not.” Lei Yingdong immediately shook his head in denial. “In terms of diligence and love for the people, even among all the ‘Seven Rulers of the Mortal World,’ my sister should be ranked at the top.”

Han Fulai pressed on, "Then how could such a thunderbolt possibly allow its people to face the 'dark calamity' without any preparation? And how could it so easily abandon its beloved Inazuma?"

"Have you ever considered the possibility that His Highness's 'death' on the battlefield of Kanria was also 'part of a plan'?"

"What...did you say?" Lei Yingdian was stunned, as if struck by lightning.

She had blamed herself countless times for not discovering her sister's departure sooner, for not rushing to Kanria sooner, to her sister's side—but at this moment, she suddenly realized that something was wrong with the whole thing.

Why do the seven comrades who used to drink and laugh together in Liyue not look after each other on the battlefield?

Why did her sister go to Kanria alone without telling her?

Raiden Shin, who has always disliked fighting, has always left the battlefield to her younger sister, who is a "shadow warrior," during the "Demon God War." Why isn't she doing the same this time?

Was it to protect her? To prevent her from encountering danger when facing the "God of Calamity"? Or to prevent her from falling victim to Sky Island's schemes?

But her sister knows her best, her sister should know better than anyone that she would rush to her sister's side no matter what. Hiding it is completely useless and will only put her sister in danger...

If we think about all of this from the opposite perspective—

"My sister went to Kanria alone... just to... die?"

Lei's film came to a conclusion that no one could believe.

Han Fulai nodded slightly.

“During the ‘War of the Demon Gods,’ you, General, always charged into the most dangerous battlefields, leaving His Highness in the rear. You were even willing to die so that His Highness could be crowned as one of the ‘Seven Rulers of the Mortal World.’”

"Therefore, if I take you with me, you will definitely not let His Highness get hurt—anyone who wants to hurt His Highness would have to get past your fallen body."

"If you die before her, then everything she did will have no meaning."

Ying stared blankly at Han Fulai's face, "What did she do... what exactly did my sister do?"

Han Fulai's response was to raise his finger to the sky.

"She used her 'death' to break free from the 'system of fate' and the 'false heaven'."

"She elevated her soul consciousness, leaping from the 'world in the book' into the 'real world'—in order to change Inazuma's fate and change the world!"

"All good things change and fade with time. Therefore, we must seize the moment and enjoy life to the fullest, leaving no regrets."

"She made a choice that she will never regret."

Lei Yingdian remained staring blankly at Han Fulai.

Her brain seemed to be refusing to understand, refusing to accept—that her sister had "committed suicide."

Isn't this equivalent to... her sister abandoning her on her own initiative?

Why? Why would my sister do such a thing?

Why not face it together with her?

They are twin sisters, the closest people in the world!

Han Fulai's last words, "A choice without regrets," still echoed in her ears.

No regrets?

Are there really no regrets?

Losing you, all I'm left with is regret...

and many more.

She suddenly realized that she seemed to have heard this phrase somewhere before.

Where is it?

who is it?

Yes……

"...It's my older sister!" she remembered.

Raiden and Raiden are twin demon gods who look almost identical, but their personalities are completely different. Although they share the title of "Eternal God," their understanding of "eternity" is diametrically opposed.

Before the arrival of the "dark calamity," there was an argument between Shin and her—or rather, it was just what she perceived as an argument, because her sister had always been kind and gentle to her and had never said a harsh word to her.

Even when they disagree, the older sister usually just sighs softly and then covers up the minor differences with a gentle smile.

In contrast, Ying would run off alone to find a deserted mountain forest or training ground, using her focus on honing her martial arts skills to suppress her unhappiness.

That day in Inazuma Castle, she, her sister, and Fox Prince were enjoying the cherry blossoms and drinking wine together under their usual cherry tree.

It seems that she was drunk that day, or perhaps she was drunk; in any case, the conversation somehow turned to "natural law" and "eternity."

"Then—what kind of eternity will be reflected in Phanes's eyes?" Zhen asked her at that moment.

"I don't know." Ying was always honest. She could never fathom the thoughts of that celestial being—or rather, she was never bothered to try to understand others' thoughts. "However, I once thought, it would be nice if these cherry blossoms never withered."

"There are flowers, there is wine, and there are you all... If this moment could last forever, it would be the most beautiful 'eternity' for me."

"I didn't expect Your Highness to be so sentimental." Zhaigong's smile seemed to hide a deeper meaning. "Flowers blooming and withering is the natural order of things. Even if you use magic to maintain it, there are limits... In this world, there are no cherry blossoms that will never fade. But the fallen petals will turn into soil, serving as nutrients for the cherry tree, so that it can bloom more and more beautiful flowers next year."

Zhen then raised her glass with a smile: "Yes, this moment is fleeting and cannot be retained. All beauty will change and disappear with the passage of time. Therefore, we must seize the moment and enjoy life to the fullest, leaving no regrets."

At that moment, faced with her sister's gentle smile, Ying ran away in a huff.

Why don't her sister and the palace lady understand what she wants?

She just wanted them to stay by her side forever!

Why did you say that?

"This scene will last only a moment"?

No, she insisted on making this scene last forever!

...But soon, she lost her "eternity".

Han Fulai continued his explanation: "Her Highness must have learned about Inazuma's future 'fate' through some channel, such as from that 'Time Ruler' Istaru."

"She may have known in advance that Sky Island was going to summon the 'Seven Rulers of the Mortal World' to face the 'forces from beyond the world,' and that Inazuma would face the invasion of the 'Dark Calamity.'"

"She discovered that it was an enemy that even the 'Seven Rulers of the Mortal World' could not defeat. If this continued, Inazuma would eventually be destroyed."

"And the only one who can resist the forces of the outside world and protect Teyvat is that one on the Sky Isle—the one who can envelop Teyvat with the 'False Heaven' and the 'Heavenly Principle'."

"Just as the General five hundred years later thought of using the power of 'ruling through time,' Princess Zhen thought of the same thing—but the power she borrowed, or rather, usurped, was of a higher level—she devised a plan to usurp the power of divine authority."

"As far as I know, 'Tenryu' itself is a visitor from outside the world, a 'descendant.' In other words, 'Tenryu' also possesses 'powers from outside the world.'"

"What His Highness desires is also 'power from beyond this world'."

"She faced the 'power from beyond the world' on the battlefield of Kanria, and then absorbed that power, breaking free from the control of the 'fate system' at the cost of losing her body and 'death'."

"The Divine Cherry Tree is the pathway to the Teyvat ley lines, and the Teyvat ley lines are part of the 'Destiny System,' which stores everything about this world in the ley line records."

"With the help of Istaru and the 'power from beyond the world,' she temporarily gained the ability to modify the 'Destiny System'—and then she altered Inazuma's history."

"And... she secretly kept this access privilege..."

"—General, are you listening?"

Han Fulai raised his voice.

The shadow, lost in memories, was suddenly startled.

The goddess standing to the side covered her mouth and chuckled.

Han Fulai helplessly reached out and grasped Lei Yingdian's hand once again.

That hand holding "One Dream, One Heart".

"Please forgive my overstepping my bounds, General... no, Shadow." Teacher Han looked at the "student" who had been daydreaming during the lesson with a somewhat stern gaze. "I want to say something to you on behalf of your sister."

Ying lowered her head silently.

She was distracted first, which was a bit presumptuous, so let's just pretend we didn't hear it.

Why did he shake my hand so skillfully? Is my relationship with him really that good, five hundred years from now?

Then she heard something even more presumptuous—

"When will that idiot Aying finally realize that 'Musou' is 'Musou'?"

Lei Yingdian looked up in surprise and met Han Fulai's gaze.

"The 'pen' that rewrites history has always been in your hands, Shadow."

Chapter 254 The "Quantum Entanglement" Between the Twin Demon Gods [4k5]

"The 'pen' that rewrites history has always been in my hands...?"

Lei Yingdian followed Han Fulai's gaze to the "Dream of One Heart" in his hand—the "Divine Sword" that had never been sharpened and was more like a work of art than a weapon.

“‘Musou Isshin’…” Shadow murmured, repeating the name of the sword.

This knife originally had no name; it was only when her sister entrusted it to her on her deathbed that she revealed its name.

"One heart, one dream" was the last thing her sister left her.

She once thought that she should name it "Dream Heart," meaning that this knife would accompany her to witness the dreamlike beauty of Inazuma and the "eternal kingdom."

But she was wrong.

As if to give her a push, Han Fulai slowly applied a little force to the hand that was clasped with Ying's.

His voice reached her ears: "If you are willing to believe that Her Highness will not easily abandon you and Inazuma, whom she loves; if you are willing to believe that she once changed history to save Inazuma; if you are willing to believe that the sword she gave you at the end has the power to change the world... then please, as Inazuma's god, respond to her 'wish'."

"elder sister……"

Ying silently gripped the hilt of the "Dream Together" sword.

Yes, how could the knife that her sister entrusted to her on her deathbed be an ordinary knife?

How could her sister's last words to her have been nothing more than naming this knife?

Why is there no supernatural power associated with this knife?

Because she did not understand her sister's "last words," she did not unleash the true power of the knife.

Her naginata is only good for fighting on the battlefield; it's just reckless courage. But Raiden's sword is a tool to open up a new world for Inazuma!

...My sister has already made it very clear: the answer lies in the riddle itself.

"Dream" (Musou) and "no thought" (Musou) are homophones and share the same origin, representing two sides of the same coin in human thought. The ultimate pursuit of desires constitutes "dream," while abandoning desires results in "no thought."

Just like her and her sister, they shared the same roots but went in opposite directions.

To unleash the power of this sword, the key lies in "single-mindedness".

—Like my sister, I want to have a heart that is willing to change the world to protect my beloved Inazuma.

On the battlefield of Kanria, she was unable to confront the "forces from beyond the world".

For the next five hundred years, she continued to try to escape.

But my sister won't run away.

Although her sister's martial arts skills were far weaker than his own, her willpower far surpassed his by more than a hundred times.

Admittedly, while running away is shameful, it can be useful. In the face of a battle that is destined to be lost, retreat is the best policy.

However, there are some battles in this world that should not be avoided.

Lightning did not escape.
