[Our young lady is an incredibly greedy girl, you know.]
The chibi Vita put on an exaggeratedly troubled expression, as if complaining about her unruly husband.
[But honestly, you can't really blame her.]
[Do tell~]
The streamer perked up instantly.
She practically shoved the microphone forward, sitting up straight to listen intently.
[She controls fate, manipulates the world, observes the past and future, and commands the myriad phenomena of existence.]
[But you see, the future changes every single moment. Every second, countless worldlines are born, while others fade away unnoticed.]
[She observes those worldlines, fine-tunes the future, all to make the whole world—no, the entire cosmos—just a little bit better.]
[However!]
[Precisely because she exists in that absolute, high-dimensional divine state at all times—like a creator, viewing everything from a top-down narrative perspective—it's easy for her own existence to become diluted.]
[So, she needs anchors.]
[To stabilize herself.]
The chibi Vita looked right through the screen, as if deliberately addressing the real-world audience, intentionally sharing these secrets.
[So you mean… the anchors are… girls like you? Her harem? Her wives?]
Yuzu seemed to understand, but was still taken aback.
Vita just smiled and spread her hands.
[What else?]
[She takes the girls she likes into her harem. It's not just about collecting them, but the more girls there are, the happier she becomes.]
[It's like finding a rare bit of joy in life.]
[Perhaps because she was once all alone, she yearns even more now for companionship, for more loved ones by her side.]
The streamer suddenly remembered something.
[I recall records from the Previous Era's official history mentioning that her parents, and even her entire family, died one after another during the Great Collapse.]
[Back then, she hadn't yet realized she was the Herrscher of Finality, and there was no way she could have prevented any of it.]
[So… it affected her that deeply?]

"Whew, thank goodness!"
"Time to latch onto those coattails!"
"Our family is definitely not going extinct."
"Hurry up! Is the family tree ready? Enshrine her name, now!"
The family behind Kiana broke out in a cold sweat.
One jokester even made a wisecrack, only to be met with the elders' deadly glares.
But compared to that…
What left the rest of the world truly reeling were the secrets mentioned earlier. Just what in the world was all that?!
Observing worldlines? Fine-tuning and manipulating the future?
Guiding the future according to her will, steering it toward a direction she desires?
Is that even possible?!
It makes her seem like a goddess looking down on all living beings.
With just a gentle flick of her slender fingers, an era could end, or a nation rise or fall.
Admittedly…
She probably can't do that right now.
Absolutely, right?
She's still in her growth phase, so surely she isn't capable of that yet?
But!
The fact that the future Kiana can do it means she's truly like a master player, with all of existence as her chessboard.
Even if people don't fully grasp how terrifying that level of power is…
It's still enough to send chills down your spine the more you think about it.
"Hey, what if… we sent more girls her way? Would that help?"
Some nations consulted their think tanks.
But one advisor raised a hand.
"The young lady isn't just going to take any girl, though."
"Right, we've already sent quite a few beauties her way, but it seems they can't even get close to her."
"To put it simply, they just aren't high-quality enough, right?"
A higher-up summarized bluntly.
And it seemed… that was exactly the case.
Just because the ones sent before didn't catch her eye, does that mean you should stop trying?
If you keep sending them, one after another, eventually you'll find a girl she likes, right?
At worst, you can always take back the ones she isn't interested in.
It's not like those girls would mind anyway.
This is a win-win situation where everyone's consenting—what's the problem?
"So… we continue?"
"Yeah, let's keep going!"

Meanwhile, back on screen…
The chibi Vita told the Vtuber that while the girls all knew each other and were aware of their shared situation…
If anyone tried to rank them in order…
No one would ever back down.
[So you're just using me as a shield, is that it?!]
Miss Yuzu flared up. But after that momentary outburst, she added:
[I mean, making a list is doable… Since no one's actually counted them all before, even I didn't realize how many there were.]
[I'm sure it'll make for great content.]
Her tone was tough, but her words were anything but.
[But as for actually ranking them? No thanks! I'm too young to die!]
Oh, right.
What was the chibi Griseo thinking?
She looked up and answered honestly.
[I was just thinking… some of the older sisters don't really care about the others, or how many women Auntie has.]
[But if you put it right in their faces and make a public list… they'd probably react, wouldn't they?]
[Doesn't that make it even more interesting?!]
The chibi Vita was practically glowing with amusement.
The streamer immediately fired back.
[So that's what you were after all along?!]
--+--
It was like adding the final touch to a masterpiece.
The screen finally cut to black.
It was truly over.
The sky screen display began to fade, the sky returning to normal.
But the shock, the topics, the discussions—they just wouldn't stop!
Day or night, those who were sleeping or busy—screw it, none of that mattered now.
Get online.
Fetch my keyboard!
"So the next episode, the side story, is basically going to list all the young lady's wives?"
"Note: 'all' only means up to that point in the future. No way she's stopping after that."
"The young lady likes women! Hooray! I'm gonna marry her!"
"Have you even looked at yourself in the mirror? Are you trying to get revenge or something?"
"Okay, but even if the young lady wouldn't end the world over some unattractive girl forcing herself on her… can you all have some self-awareness?!"
Some mocked, some debated.
Some were thrilled.
Others discussed more serious matters.
"Can someone in the know explain what 'observing worldlines and manipulating the past and future' actually means in terms of power level?"
"All you need to know is: the young lady is invincible! That's it~"
Someone else chimed in:
"If the young lady's wives anchor her emotions, does that mean the more wives she has, the more stable she becomes?"
"So if we start helping her marry more girls now, when the Time of Finality comes, couldn't we turn a probable success into a guaranteed win?"
"I mean, if her emotions are stable, she definitely wouldn't turn on us, right?"
"Doesn't that make sense?"
