Hearing what Robin said, Pei Guang spread his hands: "Any plot is possible. I know you trust your brother very much, and I know your brother was genuinely looking for you after you 'died'. But is there a possibility that while your brother loves you, he is also the mastermind behind the scenes? These two things don't conflict.
Besides, your brother's name is interesting. Sunday, the Lord's Day, the day God resurrected, the day God finished creating the world... there are many interpretations. But regardless of the interpretation, anyone with this name usually has some status."
Pei Guang had some understanding of religion. It wasn't that he liked religion, but rather that many games liked to stuff in things related to religion.
Playing games and watching the plots, he slowly remembered them.
Robin clenched her fists. She had entertained similar guesses, but the moment she thought of the suspect being her own brother, she immediately cut off the thought.
No matter what, she wouldn't suspect her brother, but...
Pei Guang: "Don't feel too bad. Maybe your brother is being framed, or perhaps he has some rather special ideals? In this day and age, pure enemies are rare: many enemies simply have conflicting interests.
But as the saying goes, the bystander sees clearly. Ms. Robin, may I ask, if the culprit is really your brother, what do you plan to do?"
Robin was still thinking about the possibility Pei Guang raised.
The more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed, but the more likely it was, the harder it was for her to accept.
It wasn't until she heard Pei Guang's words that Robin came back to her senses: "What... to do? I don't know. I feel like my mind is a mess. I dare not imagine that possibility..."
Pei Guang smiled: "What's there to be afraid of imagining? It's just your brother becoming a boss, wanting to control the entire Penacony, maybe even becoming an Emanator, or resurrecting a passed Aeon or something.
Anyway, these results haven't happened yet. Since they haven't happened, we still have time and opportunity. As long as we nip your brother in the bud... You don't want you and your brother to become enemies, right?"
Pei Guang's last sentence struck a chord in Robin's heart.
She didn't want her brother to become an enemy either. Even if that possibility was only a sliver, she wanted to nip it in the bud.
Robin: "What... should I do?"
Pei Guang: "If I'm not wrong, whatever the Family wants to do is definitely related to the Charmony Festival. So, shouldn't we just figure out a way to make it so Sunday cannot attend the Charmony Festival normally?
Keep him away from the festival, and while he's gone, we strike straight at the heart of the enemy, blow Penacony sky-high, and then take advantage of the chaos to use Harmony to retake control of Penacony. By the time he comes back, it'll be too late for everything, and we'll achieve a perfect ending?"
Pei Guang's plan was simple and crude. Simply put, take the person you don't want to kill out of the game, and then kill all the enemies remaining in the game.
Pei Guang was confident in this.
Firstly, the Xipe Cake had already used the power of Harmony on many members of the Family, so theoretically, that batch of people could be turned into their own.
Secondly, Pei Guang felt that the power he had on hand was about enough. He felt that this map was fully explored, everything that should be collected was collected, and the affection points that should be farmed were maxed out.
So, it was time to see what the final boss of Penacony looked like.
Robin was an acquaintance after all, and when he first arrived in Penacony and accidentally entered the Dreamscape, this beautiful girl had treated him quite well.
Since she had such a good relationship with her brother, giving her a hand was no big deal.
Besides, looking at her state, this quest was definitely a top-tier quest: maybe completing it would get Robin to give him some good items.
Robin shook her head: "Impossible. Brother... it's impossible for him not to attend the Charmony Festival."
Pei Guang: "Why is it impossible? If your brother truly loves you, then anything is possible. Give it a try. Think of a way to make your brother go berserk. Make him thoroughly enraged, make him unable to control himself no matter what. You are his sister: you naturally know your brother's weaknesses. Use his weakness to make him fall into our trap.
Of course, if you have any ideas that need my help, just say it directly. Just give me a reward after the quest is over."
Robin: "I..."
Robin fell into deep thought. She could be certain that Sunday's love for her was real: the siblings really loved each other.
This didn't involve any romantic feelings between a man and a woman, just the blood-is-thicker-than-water kinship between siblings, that simple and honest emotion of worrying about the other and hoping for the best for them after surviving hard times together.
But precisely because of this, Robin knew her brother's weakness: Sunday's weakness was her, Robin herself.
Use herself to force her brother not to attend the Charmony Festival? Impossible, absolutely impossible.
Robin knew her brother's personality. He had his own principles and would absolutely not be swayed by just a few words from her.
Wait?
While thinking, Robin had a flash of inspiration.
She thought of a method. This method didn't matter to her, but it would definitely affect someone else.
But she was certain that this method could put her brother into a "blood-bloiling" enraged state with just a few sentences.
However, precisely because of this, she was a bit worried, worried... about Pei Guang's safety.
Thinking of this, she came up to Pei Guang and asked in a whisper: "I have an idea, but this idea will damage your image..."
Pei Guang waved his hand, stopping Robin's words: "Don't be afraid. Since I took your quest and gave you the suggestion, you just go ahead and do it. Who am I? I am a Trailblazer of the Astral Express, a famous player. It's just image, it doesn't matter. As long as the reward is sufficient, I don't care if I lose face in the entire universe."
Pei Guang really didn't care.
Being stigmatized while doing quests as a player? That was too normal, too basic.
