Chapter 42 - Chapter;42 A New Animated Short?

Blue Star.

Sakura Fubuki has been in an exceptionally good mood lately.

Her prediction about Tao Yao not only won her a large number of fans but also made her well-known within the gaming streamer community.

The popularity of her livestreams has been steadily increasing, with excitement growing day by day.

This hard-won traffic has allowed Sakura Fubuki to taste sweet success, prompting her to take each livestream more seriously, carefully preparing content and striving to improve her skills.

With her rising income, Sakura Fubuki finally has the ability to improve her living conditions.

Recently, she set her sights on a new apartment that is elegant and spacious, and she decisively signed the lease.

Although the moving process was arduous, the thought of having a more comfortable livestreaming environment filled her with motivation.

Finally, after several busy days, her new home was all set up.

Sakura Fubuki looked around with satisfaction, feeling a sense of accomplishment swell within her.

The spacious and bright living room, the warm and cozy bedroom, and a study specifically for livestreaming—everything was just perfect.

However, her first livestream after moving encountered some minor troubles.

The internet service provider had yet to arrive on time to install the broadband, leaving Sakura Fubuki anxious like an ant on a hot pot.

Fortunately, after repeated communication and reminders, the internet finally connected this afternoon.

After a delightful bath, Sakura Fubuki changed into her favorite pink bunny ear pajamas.

This pajama set is not only comfortable but also very cute, lifting her spirits each time she wears it.

Standing in front of the mirror, she tidied up her pajamas and hair with satisfaction.

Then she headed to the study, ready to start today's livestream.

Today is a special day.

The main storyline of Game Version 1.2 will be fully unlocked, and the story concerning the dual cities will reach its final chapter.

Most importantly, if all goes well, Tao Yao will also enter the dungeon on this day.

The materials that players have been lacking should also be obtainable from this dungeon.

Sakura Fubuki knows that many viewers are looking forward to her commentary.

Although her livestream time is a bit later than usual due to the move, she believes the audience and fans will understand.

"Okay! Let's start the stream!"

Sitting in front of the computer, Sakura Fubuki took a deep breath, silently encouraging herself.

She knew that whether she went online earlier or later, Tao Yao's outcome wouldn't change. As a character positioned against the game's protagonist and the players, Tao Yao's fate was already predetermined.

Thinking of this, Sakura Fubuki couldn't help but smile with a hint of pride.

In her last livestream, her prediction had already begun to come true.

So, for this livestream, assuming nothing unexpected occurs, it would undoubtedly elevate her status among her fans.

With excitement in her heart, Sakura Fubuki skillfully opened the livestream software and clicked the "Start Livestream" button.

However, when the livestream's screen appeared, she felt something was off.

The comments in the chat seemed a bit different than usual.

Sakura Fubuki frowned, carefully reading the rapidly scrolling text:

"Ah! The Snow Dog has finally started streaming?"

"Game update, congrats to the streamer for making an accurate prediction; Tao Yao is indeed the villain."

"Though somewhat different, the streamer has indeed predicted half correctly!"

"Sigh... At this point, we can only blame the streamer."

"But what fault does the streamer have? She just wanted to be a pet..."

These comments were filled with helplessness and disappointment, completely unlike the usual vibrant atmosphere.

Sakura Fubuki felt a bit uneasy and tentatively responded:

"What's going on? Why do you all seem a bit off? I just moved house and came online a bit late... It shouldn't be like this, right?"

There was a hint of confusion in Sakura Fubuki's voice.

She sensed that the livestream had lost its usual energy, replaced by an unsettling silence.

This atmosphere was completely different from what she remembered of her past livestreams, leaving her feeling unusually puzzled.

Just as Sakura Fubuki was still pondering what had happened, some radical comments suddenly appeared in the chat:

"Aw, Tao Yao is gone. Are you satisfied now?"

"Just thinking about Tao Yao being gone and the streamer enjoying it makes me want to electrocute the streamer! Ah! You stupid streamer, I'll zap you! Zzzz!"

"Bad streamer! Give me back Tao Yao!"

Seeing these comments, Sakura Fubuki couldn't help but laugh.

Though she hadn't fully grasped the situation, these extreme remarks oddly relaxed her.

She shook her head and half-jokingly said:

"I have to say, you Tao Yao fans are obsessed, right? Didn't I say from the start how Tao Yao's outcome would be? She's inherently a villainous character, it's abnormal for her to still be alive!?!"

While saying this, Sakura Fubuki logged into the game.

She gently shook her head, ignoring the neurotic comments.

She decided to proceed at her own pace.

First, she collected her monthly card and completed the daily quests.

Controlling her character, Sakura Fubuki quickly finished a series of routine tasks.

"Alright, daily tasks done. Now let's see the main storyline!"

Sakura Fubuki said to herself, her voice tinged with anticipation.

She opened the quest list at a leisurely pace.

Her eyes fell on the unfinished main story quest from last time.

Recalling the cinematic that played at the end of the last quest, Sakura Fubuki couldn't help but feel excited.

The animation back then was truly stunning, going viral all over the internet.

The scene of Hiyakura walking toward the rift gate alone left players with much imagination and anticipation.

"I know I came in a bit late this time, and I'm aware some viewers have already seen the storyline, but please don't spoil it. Otherwise, I'd have to block you, 360. After all, I believe there are many viewers in the chat who, like me, haven't seen the storyline yet."

Sakura Fubuki smiled at the camera.

After addressing the relevant matters, she began to push the mission.

As the scene transitioned, Hiyakura appeared in a breathtakingly strange world.

Fragments of broken ruins floated in the air, and the outlines of unreleased map areas were faintly visible in the distance.

Each fragment seemed to carry boundless stories, waiting for players to explore.

"Wow, the map design is absolutely amazing!" Sakura Fubuki couldn't help but exclaim. "Although most areas seem to be closed off, just looking at them feels stunning."

However, Sakura Fubuki quickly shifted her focus from the beautiful scenery to the main character, Hiyakura.

As she followed Hiyakura's perspective, she deeply felt the character's pain at that moment.

The uncontrollable fairy power raged within, and Hiyakura appeared to be struggling against it.

"Poor Hiyakura, damn it, Tao Yao..."

Sakura Fubuki muttered, her brow furrowing slightly.

After quietly murmuring to herself, she continued to advance the main storyline.

In the subsequent main storyline, the game cleverly incorporated Hiyakura's struggle into the mission.

Players needed to complete a series of tasks to help Hiyakura resist the uncontrollable forces.

Sakura Fubuki threw herself into it, as if she were Hiyakura herself, experiencing this life-and-death struggle against the uncontrollable powers.

She led Hiyakura through various fragments, completing various challenges.

Sometimes she had to solve complex puzzles, while other times she fought against powerful enemies.

The further she progressed, the more obvious the signs of Hiyakura's loss of control became.

"Come on, Hiyakura! We can make it through this!"

Sakura Fubuki unconsciously cheered for the game character, fully immersed in the storyline.

After much hard work, Hiyakura finally arrived in front of a vast sea of flowers.

Countless colorful flowers swayed gently in the breeze, creating an unbelievably beautiful sight.

Yet, this picturesque scene gave a sense of foreboding.

Just as Sakura Fubuki was controlling the character to step into the flower sea, the screen suddenly went black.

"Eh? What's going on?"

Sakura Fubuki was momentarily stunned, then quickly realized, "Ah, another animation?!"

Before long, a beautiful animation began to play.
