00:00It's not a festival yet, it's him, is he?
00:10Master Song Xue, what are you doing?
00:34I'm just taking a stroll, no need to make a big fuss.
00:41Are you?
00:43Did you use the information I gave you earlier for this?
00:47Oh, it's him.
00:51When tracking Donigue before, it was this man in front of her who, after thinking he had received an extremely valuable hint, gave his hard-earned shadow to the girl without hesitation.
01:07Judging by his actions, at least this moment, he hadn't changed his mindset.
01:15I can't thank you enough for the tip-off you gave me, since you are here.
01:22He suddenly paused and furtively glanced at the band of outsiders.
01:32Master Song Xue, how about we talk later?
01:40Come on now, there's no need to hide anything.
01:44These are all friends of mine, I am always open with them.
01:51I was wondering if you were going to open a new shop, but now that I've gotten a closer look, is it going to be a market?
02:00This place is so busy tonight, and it's all thanks to you.
02:07Well, as you can see, nothing is set in stone yet.
02:13However, I do want Emberstreet to look more festive.
02:19Although it's not time for a festival yet, could anything be more important for us in Langqiu than the return of Shus?
02:27Besides, I'm sure that seeing Emberstreet bustling with people who are enjoying themselves will make them delighted.
02:37I knew it.
02:40You're quite good at flattery.
02:45I'm just attentive to details.
02:51Besides, even though I shouldn't be the one to say it when Master Song Xue is here,
02:57the residents of Langqiu are used to ordinary cheer gatherings and aren't familiar with the intricacies of what goes into a celebration.
03:08So I can be the only one taking care of it.
03:12When the celebration officially begins, please grace us with your presence and say a few kind words in front of the other Shus for us.
03:24By then, all right, I can never turn down a festive atmosphere, so even if nobody invites me, I'll be there.
03:33However, I have some important things to attend to now.
03:41Here we are, and there's no queue.
03:46We are really lucky today.
03:50Wait for me for a moment.
03:55I had a hunch before, but is that really the long-standing brand that also exists in Octea?
04:05In that case, here it is.
04:09Thank goodness I gave an early notice, so now I can pull freshly baked ones.
04:15Although they're an old brand, they've always been innovating for the years.
04:20I've been dying to try their new pastries for ages and gained quite a bit of unwanted weight recently, so you don't want to be the only one getting chucky.
04:31If you say so, but I'm used to living a hard life before, so I've come to love eating oily snacks.
04:38Then give me Helia's portion too.
04:41She's always obsessed with body fat, so I should be understanding. Let her stay with Ant Perception.
04:48I don't always go on about that.
04:51If necessary, I can also exhibit the function of cheating, so no need to classify me.
05:01However, it does seem quite different from those in Octea, and the smell is rather unique.
05:08It's completely different, even with just minor adjustments.
05:13The differences are more significant than I imagined up near the century.
05:19Try some more. You won't get a chance to eat this again. I brought you a bit of everything.
05:27But speaking of that, even though it was to the point that Ant Octea's time phase is a mystery, the two worlds can no longer be connected anymore.
05:37Who knows, maybe in another hundred years, Master and the others might find a way to achieve both goals.
05:45That reminds me, Entropy, I have a favor to ask before you leave.
05:53Me?
05:55Yes, you see, I'm somewhat of a celebrity here, and if I won't take my friends around Amethyst Ridge, I have no place in my clothes and nobody recognizes me.
06:06Based on what Chen Xue mentioned earlier, it would appear I'm quite famous in Octea as well.
06:13Indeed, anyone who hasn't been living under a rock has heard of you.
06:18Although the record version of you is quite different.
06:22Right, that's what I fear the most.
06:25Now that you've seen me in person, can you tell my story truthfully?
06:32Of course, that's also one of the assignments given to me by Chen Xue. Even if you don't ask.
06:42That's why I said, tell my story truthfully.
06:49She means you should spice things up and create another legend for her.
06:54What's so absurd about that? I mean, who wouldn't want to go down in history?
07:02Respect is a big deal. I've got quite a reputation around here, so to lose face would be a fate worse than death. Understand?
07:15But the accounts about you in Octea are already quite sensational. Still not satisfied?
07:21Well, at first glance, they seem somewhat accurate. But on a second thought, it's like describing a completely different person. It all feels a bit soulless.
07:34You see, we've known each other for so long, and in truth, I don't really know how to deceive people, can't you tell?
07:42For the girl, this might be quite a revelatory confession. But for outsiders who lack certain information, it was rather...
07:53In short, and truly, what kind of person is considered likeable in Octea?
08:02It's hard to say for sure. And when you said soulless just now, I thought you wanted to be more accurately understood. But in reality, you want to twist it your way?
08:18I do care about my reputation, but just that when it comes to saving face, everyone has a different definition of it.
08:29I wasn't here, but you got the gist.
08:39For you though, being likeable is difficult to quantify.
08:47It seems that we're straight further away from the point.
08:53Despite all the talk, I just want to hear you say that I'm likeable enough as I am.
09:03You really are a terrible liar.
09:08Should we go somewhere else? I want to see if there's anything else to play. I mean investigate.
09:17Of course there are. I've been here for over a hundred years.
09:22Surely everything this place has to offer isn't so easy.
09:28Considering their previous experience for dining together, the girl looked at Sanadina.
09:35Though she didn't count as a big eater, an intense curiosity stemming from her unique birth always compelled her to leave the dining table last.
09:47However, this time, the situation seemed to be different.
09:54All right, let's go, Sana.
10:06Sure, sure. Where to next?
10:10Sana, you...
10:14What are you looking at me like that for? Is there something wrong with me?
10:20Although they had only spent a short time together, the girl's diffusiveness constantly reminded the others that she didn't need to be looked after.
10:30However, no amount of energy can last forever, especially at this moment when seeing is believing.
10:41What's wrong?
10:43I...
10:46What's... this?
10:55Perception, give me a hand.
10:57Although there were signs of this happening earlier, due to the unspoken significance they say held for Song Que, she seldom paid attention to anyone else's emotions and instead focused solely on her own.
11:13Therefore, Song Que, who was usually good at reading people, was just as taken aback as everyone else when Sanadina failed to suppress the abnormality in her body.
11:32Why? How did this happen to me?
11:36Unperception, could it be that Sana is haunted by the time phases just like Entropy was before?
11:45I'm afraid it's not that simple.
11:49If it's related to the shadows of Langqiu, you would be able to notice it yourself without my input.
11:57This pattern...
12:00Entropy, if I want to go around in the sphere of data, this shouldn't be a common symptom, should it?
12:08No, this is the first time I've seen something like this.
12:12The universe is too crazy.
12:15While the possibility is slim, it still resembles the patterns that appear in what's known as Hongkai Infection.
12:24But if that's the case, does it mean Earth and Mars?
12:29Let's not discuss that for now.
12:32Do you have any ideas, Perception?
12:35Or should we immediately take her back to Oxia?
12:38Sorry, I'm struggling to understand the root cause of all this.
12:44When I initially introduced myself to you, I mentioned that my abilities couldn't extend beyond Langqiu.
12:53Of course, given the urgency of the situation, if you all need assistance,
12:59I can temporarily set aside the principle of being a human.
13:02Of course, given the urgency of the situation, if you all need assistance,
13:06I can temporarily set aside the principle of equivalent exchange.
13:12Assistance...
13:14All right, take us to my master quickly.
13:19Whether it's the illness or a return visit, my master is sure to have a solution.
13:24Master...
13:26Come to think of it, when Langqiu first encountered Baiji, she also...
13:33Since there aren't any other options, we should hurry.
13:38Who knows, maybe the situation is completely different from what we expect.
13:44If you all have reached an agreement, bring the little girl over here.
13:49However, considering the power Baiji possesses, the assistance I can provide may be quite limited.
14:02Master...
14:10Unperception, where is master?
14:14This is what I mentioned earlier, limited assistance.
14:19In fact, with the power Baiji possesses, it feels like he is omnipresent within Langqiu.
14:27Unperception, why are you still...
14:31But, sure thing, couldn't get any worse for you than they already are, Miss Song Que.
14:40Miss Song Que?
14:42That's Salima's voice.
14:44Miss Salima's situation doesn't matter.
14:47Considering what's happening in Langqiu, in most cases, finding one shoe means finding all the shoes.
14:54Baiji should be nearby.
14:55After all, limited assistance is still assistance.
15:05Then why haven't you had a similar experience?
15:13I... I'm afraid it's because I've been within.
15:26Only the retribution of falsehood manifested at the beginning, instead of ending.
15:36I'm still not following.
15:39But in other words, it still hasn't passed.
15:48The tone of her voice was quite strange.
15:51The curves of her lips and the way she moved were all drastically different from before.
15:58But the man watching her leave was oblivious of all these, as if she was not Salima, but rather another person entirely.
16:21And thus, Salima left in silence.
16:26Shortly after, a special union took place in the library.
16:41Dongfang garments and weave silk threads to attend the promised feast.
16:51Tread the thorn and gravel warily, for any oversight may lead you into a despairing abyss.
17:04Now, when you look in the mirror, which version of yourself do you see?
17:10What is the key to domination? Take a guess.
17:18Reading people's minds and understanding their fears.
17:25Then, what makes a true noble?
17:30Confronting fear is the key.
17:33Then, what makes a true noble?
17:38Confronting fears and doing as you please.
17:47How can one enjoy the ultimate pleasure?
17:55Fear must bow down to me.
18:02Hmm?
18:11I'm here, Miss Salima.
18:18I'm sorry, Miss Salima. Let me help you up.
18:24I'm sorry. It's been so long since I've seen you, and the bookworms got a bit excited like I did.
18:31I was trying to make them quiet, so I couldn't accompany you.
18:38Be careful, Saha. I'm not interested in sitting on the ground at the moment.
18:47Okay, I remember, Miss Salima.
18:52You're such a good girl.
18:55Thank you. As long as you're close enough, I can help you move better, so there's no need to worry anymore.
19:09Worry? Why would I worry about something so interesting?
19:20Interesting? I don't understand.
19:25It turns out we fine garments are manipulated by the Red, and the aristocrat who commands her servants is at the mercy of others.
19:35Is there anyone more suitable than I, who has matched her countless blended clothes, to be the mannequin?
19:47Exquisite dresses can be devoured by insects, and elegant forms are crumbled to dust.
19:53But only union will allow the smile on her lip to remain her own.
20:00I have witnessed the feeling of domination countless times, but have never experienced it firsthand.
20:08I never expected that I would enjoy such unprecedented new pleasures at a time when the world we know is about to end.
20:18That being said, if it weren't you, but someone else,
20:26even if I could only move two fingers, I would make the other person gravel at my feet.
20:37Invisible threads hung high, the domination changed sides.
20:43She gazed at the clumsy gesture of the swinging figure, at every movement that didn't belong to her,
20:52and found herself unable to suppress her laughter, until a small hand clenched tightly onto hers.
21:02Even though it was not the action she expected, at this moment, Selima truly felt their connection.
21:10What are you doing, my little Saha?
21:15I'm sorry, Ms. Selima, I'm not a smart child, but if we get closer, maybe I can understand your thoughts.
21:29I don't understand what you just said, but I don't know how to respond.
21:40Even though you control this body now, my thoughts still belong to me.
21:46I just don't know when these last vestiges of self will be stripped away.
21:58If you don't understand my thoughts, why should you make me do such a thing?
22:05I...
22:11People always gave Selima the opportunity to see through their true selves and grab their fear because of their inconsistency,
22:20their appearance not matching their emotions.
22:23But in her eyes, Sahapong was different.
22:27So innocent and pure were her desires, that one could see through them at a glance.
22:35Let me guess, is it because Saha wanted to comfort me?
22:45I hope you can feel better without having to force yourself into doing anything.
22:51I'm forcing myself.
23:00Is it true that fear is like a cough, poverty, or love, something that can never be concealed?
23:12When Selima discovered that she gradually lost control of her body after that strange shadow sphere came into being,
23:21she did feel lost and hopeless for a while.
23:25Fortunately, this young lady had the gift of taming these feelings of terror.
23:33But now, the girl's gentle words made her furrow her brow.
23:42This is quite comforting.
23:45Is that your own thought?
23:47Or theirs?
23:51It's my, no, it's everyone's.
23:58But everyone's thoughts are my thoughts.
24:04So in their eyes, I seem like someone in a comfort.
24:11Oh, I almost forgot.
24:14To be unburdened by the body, to let one's thoughts wander freely,
24:18they cannot bear it, and naturally, they cannot understand it.
24:24After all, boredom, daydreaming, leisure, and even thinking, in this busy world, they are all luxuries.
24:37Because people need to work for a living, some even sacrifice their personal life for it.
24:44Then there are those who don't have to pay that price, right?
24:52Yeah, they don't need to work their limbs and can still reap the rewards.
24:58They may even be complete philistines, boasting idleness as the ultimate enjoyment.
25:08But even the most elegant dance has moments of fatigue.
25:14And even the most entertaining game requires one person to be played.
25:21As for me, I am no longer bound by a corporal form, nor do I need to be trapped in existence.
25:30Yet, I can enjoy this unquestionable and never-ending pleasure.
25:37What could deserve to be called the ultimate pleasure better?
25:44She laughed with delight, savoring this extraordinary novel pleasure.
25:49The girl besides tilted her head in thoughts, then relaxed her grip on their intertwined hands.
25:58The ultimate pleasure is just like your title.
26:06Yes, you're such a clever and well-behaved child, Saha.
26:10Don't forget, just like Kleto's or maybe even Donyue, we're destined to maximize that talent of truth.
26:26Is this the gift bestowed upon us by Uncle Baiji?
26:34Gift?
26:36Once I brought the sacrifice to his demise, I made the pleasure experience ecstasy.
26:43The fabrication of all this by his hand will ultimately lead us to outcomes that befit our title.
26:53The lemur instinctively touched the trinket on her wrist where fragments of Stardust Crystals were stored.
27:00Before she could once again realize her inability, the girl by her side had already taken care of everything.
27:16If the ending had already been written when I took it,
27:21and such a dream come true, what an inescapable curse.
27:30However, without Uncle Baiji's gift, I wouldn't be able to help more people fulfill their wishes.
27:40If you put it that way, then it's true.
27:45To fulfill the wishes of the Shus in literal sense,
27:50Baiji's creation has provided me with many objects of amusement, which suits me just fine.
27:56Also, when Uncle Baiji gave it to us,
28:01he probably didn't expect that helping one person fulfill their wish also meant pushing them into a grave that they themselves dug.
28:14That's right, to maximize one's talent is also to confine oneself to the only path.
28:27So, sleeping won't relieve the pain, and closing your eyes won't make the problem disappear.
28:38It can at least buy some time, can't it?
28:43Although in the meantime, everything continues to plummet into despair.
28:48Ever since she saw that shadow looming high above the sky,
28:52she understood that the sinister eyes that had pried for a hundred years were waiting for this moment.
29:04Baiji, the things you did a century ago, and that thing you chose not to do.
29:12Do you regret them now?
29:18The counterfeit on her wrist gently swayed as the lemur moved,
29:23and memories from long ago slowly resurfaced in her mind.
29:27The counterfeit on her wrist gently swayed as the lemur moved,
29:33and memories from long ago slowly resurfaced in her mind.
