Originally, the princess of the Karencia Empire was supposed to ascend the throne after 'those things' appeared.
[But because of your influence, her accession to the throne was brought forward by a year.]
At that moment, Chaos's face trembled once more, and the pale rock fragments, like sculpted pieces, crumbled away.
Those two tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, revealing the chaos deep within their sockets.
One of his eyes contained a distorted clock that seemed to reflect the flow of time, and a strange ocean floated in its deep socket.
In this ocean of nothingness, countless illusory numbers symbolizing time float.
In his other eye, however, was a shattered space filled with a deep blue.
The depths of the pupil are like a shattered mirror, broken apart, except that the cracks are not just spread across a single plane.
The void-like rift space seemed to have detached from this place and opened up another location, filled with endless spatial fragments.
Sometimes they intersect, sometimes they reunite, and sometimes they split apart.
[The repetition of countless times over thousands of years was broken by you alone, which made me curious about your origins.]
Those eyes were fixed on Viktor, as if they could see through his soul and understand everything about him.
But no matter what, I can't see through the real you.
Are you the soul using Viktor's body, or the real Viktor?
These words appeared before Viktor's eyes, leaving him momentarily at a loss for how to respond to Chaos.
Even if it meant fighting him, it would be far better than him answering the other party's questions now.
Because he's just a player.
Compared to that, they were facing Chaos, who had lived tens of thousands of times over.
He was already barely able to process the other party's information.
He wanted to say that he was merely a Tongtiandai who had taken over Victor's body.
He was forced to appear in this world so that he wouldn't be killed like Victor had been.
Only then will we continue to fight.
Just like now, it is also for self-preservation that Victor plans to keep fighting his way out of that hell.
His only wish was to continue living in this world.
Therefore, if Chaos insists on asking, he has no choice but to answer.
He is a player who has taken over Victor's body.
【So……】
The chat box appeared in front of Victor again.
With each word that appeared, the ticking sound was like the passing of time.
It was incredibly crisp and deafening.
Besides Victor, do you have any other names?
boom!
At that moment, Viktor felt his mind go completely blank.
His name?
Besides Victor, what is his name?
He possesses all the memories of playing games in his previous life.
Possessing countless skills and complete knowledge of the game world.
But only one.
His name?
"I am……"
Viktor lowered his head, muttering to himself.
But that was a name that should have been possessed, a name that should have been spoken.
In his mind, only the three words 'Victor' were on his mind, and he could not imagine anything else.
Seeing this, Chaos in the sky withdrew his hand and crossed his arms.
All the illusory clocks hidden in his first eye started spinning at once, their countless hands moving at high speed.
At the same time, the fragmented space hidden within the second pupil poured out of the eye socket in an extremely unnatural way, becoming infinitely magnified.
I will not fight you; it would be pointless and futile.
But I will let you go.
Go forth, visitors from outer space!
[To find the answers you seek, return here and deliver them to me.]
Finally, it closed its two eyes tightly, and its own true voice rang out.
"This is an agreement between you and me."
In an instant, the broken cracks were gradually erased.
A giant clock slowly turned, its rhythmic chimes echoing the passage of time.
The sun bursts forth in broad daylight, like a massive, surging wave that engulfs everything around it.
...
The Karencia Empire, capital city—
All the buildings in the city seemed to have been completely renovated, and every brick exuded a peculiar aura.
Even the number of floors has changed a lot; the small shops that were originally only two or three floors have all become much taller.
The streets were filled with all sorts of magic stone teleportation arrays, all emitting a soft blue glow.
Even many of the horse-drawn carriages that used to travel back and forth on the roads were replaced.
They transformed into steel cars powered by magic stones, shuttling through the streets.
The suspended blue waves swept across the ground, as if scanning the ground.
Looking up, however, the sky was shrouded in a gray haze, a stark contrast to the bright surroundings.
Standing there, surrounded by countless passersby, he was filled with confusion.
Their eyes were filled with obvious confusion.
It was as if he was wondering.
Where did this man who suddenly appeared in the middle of the road come from?
Thump! Thump! Thump!
As a series of rapid hoofbeats rang out, a deep, resonant voice rose and fell:
"Notification received!"
"A homeless person without identification has appeared on the streets of the capital. We are here to investigate!"
Following the sound, all the onlookers turned around and stared wide-eyed.
Their eyes were filled with astonishment, and a cacophony of voices quickly rose from the crowd:
"Quick...look, it's the Royal Knights."
"Unidentified vagrants? This... how long has it been since I've seen a vagrant?"
"The one in the middle, oh my... that snow mastiff armor!"
The pedestrians chattered amongst themselves, but still very consciously made way for them.
Immediately afterwards, a dozen warriors dressed in silver armor rode up to him on horseback.
One of the older knights lowered his head and looked at him:
"Hey, you..."
Suddenly, his eyes widened as if he had seen something terrifying.
He opened his mouth wide, but couldn't utter a single word, frozen in place.
Finally, perhaps seeing that the knights who had gone ahead did not react.
The knight surrounded by knights, wearing silver armor with a snow mastiff's head on his chest and a full head of silver hair, rode out on horseback.
Her face hasn't changed much, except that she's lost some of her original childishness and gained a bit more maturity.
But this also makes them seem more ruthless.
The snow mastiff knight raised his lance, pointed it at the man's face and neck, and lifted his head slightly.
Finally, her emotionless gaze fell upon him.
His eyes flickered slightly, but he still uttered words devoid of emotion, as if giving a command.
"Come with me."
"Go back and get married."
