YourDreamGuy: When you run into trouble, think more about whether your stats are high enough.
YourDreamGuy: Instead of wondering why the enemy's mechanics are so powerful or unbeatable.
YourDreamGuy: The ultimate form of mechanics is just stats.
YourDreamGuy: A talent's mechanics won't just hand you raw stats.
YourDreamGuy: What the fuck is Destiny? It dares to define me by spouting some nonsense about causality. I'll just shoot it full of arrows until it shuts up.
Ruthless Divination Machine: But mortal strength has its limits.
YourDreamGuy: You got depression or something?
YourDreamGuy: Haha, I didn't say anything just now. Some stranger grabbed my Jade Abacus and typed a bunch of random stuff.
Seeing this, Leon chose to quickly backpedal.
Depression is an absolute defense; even gods fear it.
Ruthless Divination Machine: I just don't know how to face my master.
Ruthless Divination Machine: My master told me the same thing back then. I left him in order to escape destiny.
Ruthless Divination Machine: But in the end, I'm still trapped in the whirlpool of fate.
Ruthless Divination Machine: If your appearance hadn't changed the original trajectory, I believe destiny would have proven true once again.
Ruthless Divination Machine: I want to reconcile with him, but I'm afraid that the destiny I worked so hard to break will force us both back onto the predetermined path.
YourDreamGuy: Isn't it exhausting worrying about this and that? If destiny tries to bind you again, just break it again.
YourDreamGuy: If you can't do it, just rely on others a little more.
YourDreamGuy: If everything in the world is a knowable destiny, then I am the only unknowable within that knowledge—as long as I want to walk, the path is beneath my feet!
Since I could beat destiny once, I can beat it a second time!
Go do what you want to do without any worries.
I will act!
After typing out those three short but powerful messages, Leon put away his Jade Abacus.
He then entered the starskiff from inside the cabin.
Finally, after mashing a bunch of buttons, he successfully took off.
The departure of the starskiff also symbolized the official beginning of his life as a ranger.
"I can't believe this thing is so easy to fly."
Leon gripped the steering wheel, full of confidence.
"Hey, wait a minute!"
After igniting the starskiff, he suddenly realized a tragic reality.
"Fuck, I don't know how to fly a plane!"
The starskiff, which had been flying steadily, suddenly went into a nosedive the moment he recognized his own incompetence!
"Not good, kids, we're crashing!"
The late emperor's great enterprise was unfinished when he passed away mid-course.
man, what can i say?
...
...
Yuque, Fu Residence.
"I will act."
Fu Xuan stared at those words on the chat interface.
Words are pale, especially through a screen.
Yet, she could feel the casualness with which he had typed them.
And the absolute confidence in his own stats.
I have no dream of my own, but I can protect the dreams of others!
"Fighting against destiny, and you'll win for me to see..."
Standing by the window, Fu Xuan pressed the lit Jade Abacus to her chest, murmuring as she gazed at the view of the sky.
If all went as expected, he should have departed by now.
Although her first impression of this fate-breaker was that he was something of an oddball,
it was undeniable that he truly had the capital to confront destiny.
"Is something wrong?"
Jingtian walked up beside her from behind, his hands clasped behind his back.
"No."
Fu Xuan shook her head.
"I just feel that the fate-breaker of this era is exceptional, as exceptional as the Reignbow Arbiter back in the day."
"So exceptional that he can easily win the hearts of others with just his casual words and actions."
This was already the highest praise she could give.
To be on par with the Reignbow Arbiter was undoubtedly the greatest honor in the Xianzhou Alliance.
"You like him? If you like him, then go after him."
Jingtian said, also gazing at the clouds on the horizon.
"What's wrong with a Master Diviner assisting a variable in destiny? This is a calling that many diviners could only dream of."
"Win the hearts of others," he says. Besides her, who else was he chatting with that could have been captured?
"Master."
Fu Xuan ignored him, simply uttering a title she hadn't used in a long time.
So long that it felt somewhat unfamiliar on her tongue.
"Hm?"
Hearing this title once again, a smile appeared on Jingtian's face, identical to the one he wore the moment he first took her in as a disciple.
"You have to live well."
"No one can succeed you. The Yuque can't do without you."
Fu Xuan took a deep breath.
Just like him, she would fight against destiny to the very end and win for him to see!
"I will."
Jingtian actually wanted to say, "No one can live forever. The changing of the guard is a normal thing."
But seeing the resolute look on his disciple's face, the words died on his lips.

Kasbelindat-VIII
Including the fallen, there are a total of eighteen Aeons in the universe.
And among them, 'Destruction' is the most reviled.
Because its Antimatter Legion are the infamous pests that disrupt the peace of the universe.
"To welcome rebirth, one must first embrace the end."
This is the philosophy they uphold.
Only 'Destruction' is the best final destination for the universe.
And today, they have come once again to bring the rebirth of destruction to a star system.
"Teacher, is the world going to be destroyed?"
Inside a dilapidated house, a dozen or so children hid under tables and chairs, listening to their teacher's instructions.
Trying to gain a small sense of security from the violently shaking ground.
"The world won't be destroyed."
The teacher, who had a halo above her head and purple and white feathers behind her ears, hid under the table with them.
She gathered the children who flocked to her in fear into her arms, gently stroking their heads and comforting them in a soft voice.
"This war will be over soon, I promise."
There was worry in Robin's eyes, but her face still wore its usual smile.
As the pillar of support for these children,
she tried her best to control her own panic, to avoid letting their anxiety be amplified.
"Teacher will protect you, don't worry."
Robin slowly crawled out from under the table. Several children saw her leaving and wanted to follow, but she stopped them.
"Don't run around. Just wait here for Teacher."
Robin placed her index finger to her lips in a hushing gesture.
"Teacher, where are you going?"
Having lost their pillar of support, the children's sense of security plummeted in an instant. Many asked in trembling voices.
"Teacher is going to do what she can for everyone's future."
Robin smiled gently.
Her gentle voice seemed to possess a special magic, subconsciously calming the children's fearful and restless hearts.
"Did you know? Miss Robin actually has a very grand dream."
Robin said in a soft whisper, "And that is for there to be no more suffering in the universe."
"She has always been working towards this dream, dedicated to soothing people's pain with her songs, traveling everywhere to places where war is frequent."
"This time will be no exception."
Robin's gentle eyes curved into a soft smile.
"Didn't you say you wanted to sing for that Miss Robin?"
"Well then, let's start now."
"I'm sure she will hear it."
