Did the main characters enter the wrong game in their second playthrough?

Wendy's lips twitched noticeably when he saw the Star General replace the "Teleport Anchor Point" with the "Domain Spear".

He now knows why Istaru can't manipulate time.

So... she changed the anchor point connecting the ley lines to an anchor point that directly "fixed" the ley lines!?

Looking at the "brand new" "teleportation anchor," Wendy felt a moment of disorientation, but... he couldn't understand the workings of that thing and could only deduce its purpose from Xing's words.

Forget it... it's none of his business. Let those guys in the sky worry about this!

Chapter Forty-Nine: Purifying Dvalin

At the top of Star-Picking Cliff, the poet of the wind gently stroked the strings of his zither, and the crisp notes resounded on the mountaintop with the light touch of his fingertips.

Using the "purified" teardrop crystal, Venti easily repaired the Skyward Harp in his hand. Although he could have repaired it without the teardrop crystal, he clearly hadn't let this little bit go to waste; if it could be used, so be it.

A gentle breeze blew across the mountaintop, but as the melodious music played, the breeze gradually became irritable, as if it carried a hint of resentment!

The gentle breeze transformed into a whirlwind that swept towards the people on the mountain, but before it could reach them, it was blocked by an even calmer wind.

"coming……"

Diluc's expression darkened, and his gaze towards the sky became solemn.

That oppressive feeling unique to "dragons," and... that ominous aura from the abyss.

"Boom!!!"

The moment the storm struck, a colossal figure leaped from the mountains, its outstretched wings nearly obscuring half the sky. Its crimson eyes were fixed on Wendy, who was playing music atop the mountain, filled with hatred.

That damned Barbatos! Is the so-called god of liberty meant to restrict his freedom?!

During those days when he was forcibly suppressed in the Wind Dragon Ruins, the wind that should have been at his disposal actually turned against him!

What a humiliation!

Now, he's using this song to call on him again—isn't that a blatant provocation?

Those eyes were filled with rage, as if they were about to tear Wendy, who was holding the Sky Harp, apart and chop her to pieces at any moment!

Then, out of the corner of its eye, it caught a glimpse of the star yawning to the side...

Immediately afterwards, a "wonderful" memory began to flood his mind.

It was a perfectly crafted baseball bat, striking him precisely on the back of the head with a perfect arc...

With that earth-shattering power!

Under that force, all he could do was "submit".

If you resist, you will only face death!

So, the moment he saw the star, before Wendy could put down the Sky Harp and utter his first words, Dvalin decisively made a 180-degree turn in the air, hastily reversing his dragon head, his wings flapping rapidly, completely losing his initial majestic and imposing appearance.

At this moment, only one thing was on Tvalin's mind...

"Thoma, fly faster, Dead Wings! There's a King of Hell behind you!"

"..."

Watching Dvalin's "rapid escape," Wendy's eyes twitched visibly. Then, she looked at Star with a hint of resentment.

Look how scared you've made him!

At this moment, Jean and Diluc, who were standing behind them, fell silent once again.

The first silence was due to the oppressive aura of the wind dragon, but this second time... was because they were so shocked by the wind dragon's panicked escape that they were speechless.

"Um...did Dvalin run away?"

Paimon watched the figure recede into the distance, then turned to Wendy, who had already "gone blank," and asked in confusion.

"Yes, it did run away, and it ran very fast."

Xing nodded, then pulled out his baseball bat...

"Wait! I can still call him back! Put the bat back first!"

Upon seeing the glowing baseball bat, Wendy panicked and quickly reassured Xing before playing the Sky Harp in her hands once more.

However, although the music that follows still sounds light and elegant, a closer listening reveals a hidden urgency within it.

But when the music reached the ears of Dvarin, who had already flown far away, it took on a different meaning.

This can be roughly translated as: "If you run again, I won't just knock you out with one blow!"

"..."

Upon hearing this, the wind dragon remained silent, but reluctantly turned around in the distance, rolled over in the clouds, and slowly flew back.

"Look! They're back!"

Wendy smiled faintly, pointed to Dvalin in the distance, and then turned to Starway.

"..."

Behind them, Jean and Diluc exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.

It was directed at the poet of wind and color before him, and also at the "obedient" wind dragon.

Xing didn't say much, just nodded slightly, put the baseball bat away, and then stood with his hands behind his back on the mountaintop.

The gust of wind billowed the hem of her dress, causing her gray hair to flutter backward. Her golden eyes, devoid of joy or sorrow, gazed indifferently at the approaching wind dragon.

The moonlight stretched her shadow far away on the cliff, while the oppressive wind dragon made her figure appear even more out of place...

"Click..."

An even more abrupt sound shattered the magnificent scene. Accompanied by a white flash, Paimon, who had somehow appeared behind Xing, flew back with Xing's phone in his hand and a look of curiosity on his face.

"I have to say, this little thing is really useful. It looks so small, but it can take pictures!"

Paimon stared at Xing's phone with great curiosity. Although it wasn't the first time he had used it, he always had a very novel experience every time he held it!

"Pack it up!"

Paimon, holding Xing's phone, flew to her and said.

But Xing maintained his "master" posture, standing with his hands folded and his clothes fluttering.

Gazing at the motionless star, Paimon suddenly realized!

So... she had been pretending all along!

My foot! Is this the time for you to show off?!

The dragon in the sky glanced cautiously at the "indifferent" star, then lowered its voice as much as possible and looked at Wendy, who was playing the zither, with its scarlet, but clearly less hostile, gaze.

"Barbatos, what are you trying to do now!"

Haven't you hurt me enough before?! Now you've brought this living father here... What exactly do you want?!

"..."

At that moment, the two people standing behind Wendy and Xing exchanged another glance.

But the initial shock was gone from his eyes; instead, there was a numbness.

So... what are they doing here?

"Tvalin, we're here to help you! Please trust us!"

Wendy pleaded earnestly with the wind dragon before her, "Please! Please accept my help! I can't take it anymore!"

"Hmph... Now that things have come to this, what's the point of offering help? Do you think I would..."

Looking at that "hypocritical god," Tvalin disdainfully dismissed his words and actions, and was about to refuse when his peripheral vision caught sight of the baseball bat that someone was itching to use...

"Would I refuse?! Barbatos! What do you take me for, Dvalin?!"

"???"

"No, this doesn't sound right at all."

Hearing that authoritative admission of defeat, Paimon felt utterly exhausted.

There are too many flaws to list...

Chapter Fifty: "The Story That Exists Because of You"

"..."

In the lower district of Beloborg, Kiana looked at Seele, who was confronting Bronya, and Natasha beside her, and smiled with relief.

It feels like Kiana doesn't even need Xing's reminders anymore. Just seeing these three standing there, Kiana seems to know what's going to happen next.

It must have been Bronya, under Seele's guidance, who witnessed the current state of the Lower District, learned the truth about Beloberg, and then led the people of the Lower District to rebel against the Upper District. After defeating Cocolia, she became the new Grand Guardian and ultimately led Arillo VI back to prosperity...

what……

My head hurts!

The argument between Bronya and Seele seemed irrelevant now; she was starting to doubt whether her home planet, the solar system, really had any meaning.

There are way too many "isotopes" here!

Perhaps, in a couple of days, a version of myself from another world will pop out?

At this moment, she once again understood the true value of Xing's words.

The preparations needed for going to Yalilo VI... are actually psychological preparations?

Fortunately, she wasn't the only one suffering from this headache!

The thought that Walter would have the same expression as her upon seeing these "identifiers" instantly made Kiana feel much better.

Ah... then she won't have to worry about the next phase of "exploration" anymore.

As her thoughts gradually became clearer, she found herself looking forward to Mei in this world more and more!

After calming down, Kiana was about to step forward and separate the two who were about to come to blows because of their argument, but then a message popped up in her mind's chat group interrupted her thoughts.

Star: "@Luminous, [Facing the Wind Dragon].jpg, Luminous! I finally beat Stormterror!"

Ying: "Congratulations! That means you've officially left the beginner's village!"

Xing: "Yay!"

Star: "Purification of Dvalin! Success!"
