Speaking of which... Why do you trust Lamia so much? 41 41 301 Roland What can I do if I don't? Leave her alone, the worst she can do is to run. But if I force her to move with me when she has different thoughts in mind... 1 42 42 301 The illusion makes an "I knew it" smile. 43 43 301 Roland? Fine.

Perhaps she still fears Roland. 53 53 301 But Lamia has a vague feeling that if she walks away from Roland one more time, they will never meet each other again. 54 54 301 Lamia (Why? Isn't this what I want? Why would I feel a little pity to leave him?) 1 55 55 301 Lamia starts to hesitate. She remembers "the thing" that keeps bothering her. 56 56 301 Leaving is of course the easier option. But if she can guide Roland to "that place" during his search for Luna... 57 57 301 Because he is Roland, so he can always get things done, whether it is for "Miss Luna"... or, Lamia. 58 58 301 Lamia purses her lips without realizing. Soon, she makes her decision. 59 59 301 Lamia ...I have to do this, eek... 1 60 60 301 She can run away anytime, but this is her only chance to get a powerful helper. 61 61 301 Lamia once tried to seek help from The Merciful One... And it did not end well. 62 62 301 Roland may be her last chance of getting "that thing" done. 63 63 401 1 36 64 64 301 AniZhuanchangBegin Lamia pulls her mind back from the surrounding forest, then leaps briskly into the town. 65 65 202 1 1 66 66 101 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory382.png 67 67 401 1 207 68 68 301 AniZhuanchangEnd Roland walks in the deserted town. The scenes make him... somewhat uncomfortable. 69 69 301 Retro-styled streets, houses made from stones, paved road surface with trails pressed by anti-slip plates on carriage wheels. 70 70 301 —Roland feels uncomfortable. 71 71 301 What if all these traces were only added half an hour ago by the props team? What if the Corrupted weren't infected by the Punishing Virus, but an AI mechanoid specifically designed for this scene? 72 72 301 Roland just cannot stop thinking about these possibilities. Luna once made him believe in reality, but she is not here. 73 73 201 1 500334 74 74 301 1 Roland? You don't look very good. 75 75 301 Roland Look at me, hermano. What do you see? 1 76 76 301 Roland A monster? A corpse? A weakling? A lost lamb? 1 77 77 301 Roland? You're probably not going to like what I'm about to say. 78 78 301 Roland I didn't get you here to say things that I can accept with pleasure. 1 79 79 301 Roland Have "I" become so twisted that I must pretend in front of myself? 1 80 80 301 Roland? What about you? Are you still going to act fragile and weak? 81 81 301 Roland Say it. 1 82 82 301 Roland? Can't you live without finding yourself a master? Do you have to let others hand the answer to you, even when you can find the answer yourself? 83 83 301 Roland? You aren't that kind of person. At least you shouldn't be after leaving "The Mandhasti Real Park." 84 84 301 Roland ... 1 85 85 301 Roland? You never change. 86 86 301 Roland? Always looking for a lighthouse, a thing that can support you to continue forward. 87 87 301 Roland? You are always seeking a purpose, but you never really think about it. 88 88 301 Roland? After all these years, you and I both know who you are. You are not that kind of person. 89 89 301 Roland? I suggest you... find a mirror, and take a good look at yourself. 90 90 301 Roland ...If we really can find one in this dull place. 1 91 91 301 Roland What will I see... in the mirror? 1 92 92 301 Roland? You guess. 93 93 301 Roland ...You take your time. I'm not in the mood for that. 1 94 94 202 1 1 95 95 301 Roland impales the remains of a Corrupted into the wall. 96 96 301 Some electronic structures within the remains are pressed and squeezed together by Roland's thrust, causing the body to tremble again, probably due to short circuits. 97 97 301 But Roland had seen it too many times... in his brief "previous life," or in "The Mandhasti Real Park." 98 98 301 Exaggerated hits, carefully designed and trained poses, and twisted fake deaths that were purposely acted in front of the "protagonist." 99 99 301 They are still alive physically, or mechanically. They will show up in the next scene and may portray a different way of death, but the deaths of the "characters" they are playing have been decided. 100 100 301 They are destined to die, so they cannot choose to live. The only option is to embrace a death that looks as real as a performance. 101 101 301 The mechanoid remains stuck in the wall are truthful in their performances. Roland's eyelid keeps twitching. 102 102 301 This whole deja vu experience feels like a cycle of destiny. It's all too ****ing absurd. 103 103 301 Every swing of Roland's chain blade seems pointless. 104 104 301 They aren't going to stop for fear. 105 105 301 The death of their kin isn't going to make them any crazier. 106 106 301 It's all but a part of a meaningless cycle. 107 107 301 This entire mess only leaves behind chaos. Even the victor will not feel like he has accomplished anything. 108 108 301 How absurd. Had my opponents ever felt this way? 109 109 201 1 500334 110 110 301 1 Roland (Hah... Why bother.) 1 111 111 301 Through the remains and ruins, he walks into the group of buildings. 112 112 301 Roland? You look a lot better now. 113 113 301 Roland ...We still have things to do. 1 114 114 301 Roland? So, we're done here. What's next? 115 115 301 Roland doesn't answer his question, but looks at the streets ahead. 116 116 301 Roland I don't need to worry about that. Our opponent has already prepared the red carpet. 1 117 117 301 Roland looks into the distance. On a filthy wall, someone wrote "Come this way" with red paint. 118 118 301 Roland? ...? 119 119 301 Roland Whoever wrote this, I have no idea what they were thinking. But at least I get the message. 1 120 120 301 Roland? Everything about it looks like a trap. 121 121 301 Roland ...Indeed. 1 122 122 301 Roland knows an unknown trap awaits him, but he doesn't have a chance. 123 123 301 AniZhuanchangBegin He can only put himself at stake, betting for a one in a million chance. 124 124 202 1 1 125 125 401 1 203 126 126 101 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/BgStory18.jpg 127 127 201 1 500308 128 128 301 AniZhuanchangEnd 1 Cinderelik You have already missed two scheduled communications. 1 129 129 301 "Voodoo" My... memory control threshold... is within the expected value... 130 130 301 Cinderelik ...Doesn't sound like that to me. 1 131 131 301 "Voodoo" No...
