Chapter 38 - Expose Myself First! - 38

[Sorry, sorry, the update's a bit late this time.]

[It's totally the VTuber's fault.]

[...]

[But your VTuber was busy with something, so it couldn't be helped!]

[...]

The manga-styled girl gestured animatedly.

[I've got some great news to share with everyone.]

[Through hard work, this young lady has officially landed a government job~]

[Our Alliance's Historical Research Institute has hired me for their history promotion project. From now on, you can call me the History Ambassador!]

[...]

She struck an adorable pose, hands on her hips, looking incredibly proud.

[So from now on, Yuzu can openly access the Void Archives Vault's classified documents and literature! I'll be able to give you all even more detailed insights into all the interesting things that happened in our past.]

[Isn't that awesome?]

[...]

"If I remember correctly, isn't her grandfather someone high-up in that so-called Void Archives Vault?"

"This setup is so wild. The young lady's thrilled about becoming a civil servant?"

"..."

"Maybe she's just happy she went from sneaking peeks at documents to having legitimate access now. In her eyes, that's probably a big win."

"After all... it's a kind of achievement, right~"

"..."

"I don't get you privileged kids. Damn it! I'm so jealous!"

"..."

People all over the world couldn't help but mutter their scattered thoughts.

Even though it often felt like this UP's shares were a mixed bag—sometimes useful, sometimes not, some believers, some just treating it as part of her virtual persona to chuckle at and move on—it was still pretty entertaining.

And honestly, venting a little like this actually lifted spirits.

It was like a wave of cheerful atmosphere washing by, downright pleasant.

But.

These little tangents of hers were never without purpose.

Kiana always sprinkled in bits of information within them, like hidden Easter eggs, not just to bolster the authenticity of this future broadcaster persona, but to add more layers, more glimpses, making the entire future world feel that much more real.

In fact, leadership teams in various countries were quietly mulling it over.

They could read between the lines of this VTuber's words and glean so much more.

"Didn't she mention last time? Even though it's from the Void Archives, it's all approved for public release."

"Right. Apparently, it's almost the Festival of the Goddess—that is, the Herrscher of Finality's—birth celebration over there. To help everyone remember history, they want to promote this stuff more."

[...]

That made sense.

If this Vtuber really was from the future, then in her timeline, the future authorities would definitely be coordinating a whole series of promotional efforts for the Herrscher of Finality's birthday celebration.

This broadcast was probably just one part of that.

Maybe because of her solid background, her family connections, even her ancestors being able to reach figures like the future Elysia, she was chosen to be pushed into the spotlight.

She was selected.

Think tanks highlighted key points, exchanged notes, and smiled.

"Regardless, this is very advantageous for us. After all, we all know the truly important stuff isn't what's publicly available, but the content that's kept under wraps."

[...]

Anyone around the world who knew the truth understood perfectly: the more detailed the Sky Screen's revelations, the better it was for them.

The more authentic the content, the more they could use it for reference.

In fact, just from these two or three videos, many countries had already completed a basic profile of Miss Yuzu.

They had a decent grasp of her personality too.

They'd even followed the faint clues to grasp a lot of information about the future world.

Even though the future world had only been sketched out in silhouettes during those initial sketches about the young lady, Herrscher of Finality, depicting the trials and triumphs over tens of thousands of years, the overall picture was already clear enough.

Anyone familiar with history knows: once you can sort out the context and grasp the direction, many things become much easier to accept.

This was good!

And now, the broadcaster lady in the Sky Screen seemed to have seen the comments on her end. She pouted slightly, feigning annoyance, her tone carrying a hint of complaint.

She insisted she had gotten in through proper testing.

It wasn't cheating.

[This young lady is a top graduate of Erudition University.]

[Erudition University, know it? It's the flagship institution under the Erudition Faction. One of the most prestigious universities in the entire cosmos.]

[Should I mention I have dual doctorates in History and Social Sciences?]

[Next time... please address me as Dr. Yuzu. Thank you!]

[...]

"Quick! Note that down."

"Erudition University. Erudition Faction."

[...]

Damn.

Their pens practically never stopped moving.

Unfortunately, however, the VTuber in the Sky Screen only mentioned it in passing. Despite many people's keen interest, she didn't elaborate further.

Instead, she returned to the main topic, leaving quite a few feeling utterly frustrated.

You started it, now tell us more~

[Dear esteemed viewers~]

[When we talk about Dr. Mobius... what comes to mind?]

[The Demonic Scientist?]

[The Path of Infinity? The Aeon of Infinity?]

[Or perhaps...]

[The proposer and executor of the Artificial Herrscher project?]

[...]

[But that's not what we're discussing today~]

[Talking about that stuff would be boring.]

[...]

The chibi avatar grinned mischievously. She pulled out an official illustration of Mobius.

In an instant, everyone saw a female figure appear on the Sky Screen.

If the Finality was dignified majesty, and the Origin was pure innocence, then the Mobius above seemed to exude a profound sense of mystery. Like an endless tree rooted in the void, without limit, with countless forms of life merely serving as her backdrop.

Just her appearance alone was enough to leave people awestruck.

"So this is the Doctor of the future..." Blanca gazed at the sky, unable to hold back a murmur of amazement.

Thinking of the Doctor now and comparing her to the image in the illustration... the difference was really huge.

They hardly seemed like the same person.

"Mommy... that's... Mobius... Grandma..." Little Griseo, in a soft, milky voice, snuggled in her mother's arms, thinking hard before mimicking the way Elysia taught her to address Mobius. It was both amusing and a little exasperating.

But.

So adorable!

Little Griseo remembered Mobius.

She was often brought to the lab by Blanca.

Even Mobius herself was very fond of her. Even if she never said it out loud, that was the feeling.

Ato, nearby, gently stroked little Griseo's cheek.

He smiled.

"If anything, this actually fits my impression of the Doctor quite well."

"That's true too..." Blanca nodded in agreement.

Looking at that illustration of Mobius—intellectual, rational, yet also enchanting, alluring, surrounded by all sorts of strange animals and plants—she seemed like a mother, yet even more like a creator.

Her voluptuous figure, her stunning curves.

That breathtakingly beautiful face.

Yet, like an Ouroboros, elegant yet deadly.

Perhaps... it wasn't surprising at all.
