You suddenly awaken from a dream, finding yourself in a mysterious place.
Surrounding you are ancient stone walls, worn and weathered, as if they have traversed through time, telling tales of the world's cycles and changes.
Whispers fill the air, as if someone is softly murmuring, yet the words remain indistinct and unclear.
An inexplicable sense of unease stirs in your mind, jolting you awake... this is the peculiar sensation of a lucid dream.
Now, after passing through some kind of barrier, Xiar feels as if she is dreaming; everything around her seems unreal, shrouded in thick mist.
She is still in the academy, but the buildings around her appear to have endured the ravages of time, with peeling walls revealing their age.
The lush trees that once surrounded her have vanished, leaving behind a stark and eerily quiet campus.
Loli walks quietly, and at some point, a pair of strange wings appears behind her—dark red on the left and golden on the right. A bizarre pattern of gold and red also emerges on her forehead.
Her long black hair has inexplicably transformed into a brilliant golden hue, shimmering like gold itself, finally revealing to Xiar why she is codenamed "Gold."
Xiar trails behind her, astonished by the sights around them.
In what was once a vibrant area filled with flowers and grass now lies a mysterious ancient ruin. On the collapsed structures, abstract patterns are etched into the stone.
Tap tap!
It feels as though something is moving back and forth nearby, accompanied by faint sounds echoing in the air. It’s reminiscent of walking alone at night when one feels an indescribable presence lurking just behind them; turning around would surely frighten them half to death.
Don't look back!
He remembered how the elders in the village always warned him never to look back; once he did, he would fall into some terrible predicament, attracting something ominous. This thought filled him with an indescribable fear every time he walked alone at night.
Here, that fear seemed magnified, making Xiar constantly uneasy, as if something might suddenly tap him on the shoulder at any moment.
Fortunately, nothing of the sort had happened yet. Jin guided him through this ancient and mysterious place.
Whispers surrounded them, but Xiar could not hear his own footsteps, as if something had severed his sense of hearing.
"Do you know? There is an ancient and terrifying existence here, one that possesses great power. It has been sleeping in this world, trapped in a death-like slumber. However, with the opening of a door, it has been awakened."
Jin's golden hair flowed behind her as she spoke in a voice so low it was almost inaudible, as if afraid of waking something.
"Is it a city that lies across the sky, with an immense being seated above it, possessing tentacles stretching for thousands of meters..." Xiar couldn't help but ask.
To his surprise, Jin suddenly exclaimed, "No! Don't talk about it; this is its realm!"
Xiar immediately fell silent, staring at her in shock.
It was clear that he had arrived in this mysterious world under her guidance—a world hidden behind reality, meant to reveal some truth to him.
The existence of this world was so peculiar that even after searching through the entire Story Database, he could find no trace of it. It felt like an uncertain nightmare rooted in people's illusions, leaving no mark on history.
"Look over there."
Following the direction of her finger, Xiar saw a massive and illusory stone gate quietly rising against the vast pale gray sky.
The door was immense, as if it spanned the entire horizon. Shadows of various creatures flickered above it, as if it gathered the entire world's biological diversity, where even the tiniest beings could be found.
"I have had the ability to step into this world for as long as I can remember, but I cannot change anything; I can only watch from here."
"Three years ago, this massive stone door suddenly appeared in the sky of this world, and I vaguely received some mysterious message. When the World Source opens, the Ancient Beings will awaken and descend upon this world to eliminate all who defy its fate."
Her voice resembled a chant, evoking a resonance that stirred countless voices—men and women, old and young—into a strange yet sacred hymn, heralding the fate of the future.
Perhaps this was the fundamental reason for the failure of the True God Cult!
Xiar furrowed his brow. The True God Cult had spent hundreds of years, enduring through several generations, to finally obtain the key to open the Source Gate.
They attempted to harness the endless energy within the Source Gate to activate the Tree of Life, aiming to make it the sole deity of the entire world!
However, they naturally failed, overwhelmed by several Children of Destiny.
The Tree of Life was destroyed, the True God Cult collapsed, Morent fell, and ultimately, the world returned to an era dominated by imperial powers led by Rody.
Now reflecting on it, he suddenly realized that there were invisible hands firmly controlling the course of fate in this world, causing humanity to stagnate for thousands of years!
So then, could this existence be the guardian of the World Will?
"Now, for the final question: who are you?"
Xiar stepped forward and calmly asked her.
The girl possessed such a unique ability that she could pull him into this mysterious world, clearly marking her as an existence far different from an ordinary Spirit Master.
"I don't even know who I am. Since I first gained memories, I've always been like this. Many years have passed, yet there hasn't been the slightest change," she said, a look of confusion appearing in her golden eyes. She resembled a lifelike doll, not quite like a real person.
"I have a Firebird Totem. At first, it was just a Common Totem beast, but somehow it has completed its Evolution and is about to undergo Ultimate Evolution."
Wait, it can work like that?
Xiar's gaze grew increasingly peculiar as he observed her—a seemingly ageless Loli who might very well be older than him, making her a legally recognized Loli.
Even more astonishing was her totem, which could actively evolve!
If word got out, countless people would come looking for her. Some cold-blooded individuals would undoubtedly go to great lengths to uncover her secrets, subjecting her to various tortures or even placing her on an Experiment Table to be studied and dissected like a White Mouse!
"Why do you trust me so much?" he asked in confusion.
They had only met a few times, and their previous conversations had been brief. Yet she revealed such an important secret to him, causing him to feel a twinge of wariness.
Could it be that she discovered his identity as a traveler?!
Jin slightly tilted her head back, her obsidian-like beautiful eyes filled with warmth. She reached out and grasped his sleeve softly, saying, "Because you are a good person."
