Amidst the abundance of emotions and chaos, Sovereign ponders deep and well. Shortly after gaining his insights, the topic of before in the magic talisman channel begins again.
Now, Earl Zuwei has also entered the channel again.
"Stalker, how old are ya?", he asks towards the anonymous person.
"Teach me the ways, Senior Zuwei.", Study Partner asks, to which Zuwei only says No.
"I want a Jade maiden to write a paragraph for me in public channel too, I sob…", Study Partner speaks, with hints of jealousy in the way of wording.
Sovereign also shares his opinion, saying "Me too, haha!"
"See what you've caused, stalker?", Zuwei says.
"It's been the joke of the day if you scroll up, Senior Zuwei.", Study Partner laughs.
"Don't take it to heart, sometimes, love can make you do irrational things, Senior."
"I suggest to start a petition to execute Earl Zuwei, haha!", Sovereign shares in the channel.
It seemed as though Study Partner agreed with Sovereign when it came to this.
"You have my signature.", he says.
"Hey, Sovereign, calm down, and why are you suddenly talking like it's a normal thing when it's time to get rid of me?", Zuwei defends.
Then, a new person named Beware replied to a previous message from Zuwei.
"She's freshly [Encrypted] years old.
An old man like Zuwei hitting on such a young individual, is this lawful or is this disgraceful?"
"Good thing this Senior Zuwei didn't say yes, I'm safe.. phew… thank you, acting law enforcement substitute."
"Zuwei priorly said 'Okay' though, what could this then mean?", Sovereign asks.
"[Encrypted Age] is a bit too old, no?", Study Partner says, with a slightly humorous tone.
"It is a W," Light replies to Beware's question of actions.
"Light, you are only pretending to support it because you do this kind of stuff yourself, well well well," Sovereign postulizes.
"Hmph, are you trying to make us laugh?", Tsl7 doubtfully critiques.
"This Venerable Light? I have no idea what you're talking about…"
"It was an inside joke between Light and this Sovereign, why interrupt if you don't understand, Tsl7."
"Tsl7 is my secret hidden agent behind the enemy lines, don't worry about him.", Light then says, possibly to loosen the tension.
"Yeah yeah, of course the joke always saves you… be quiet," Tsl7 says.
"Tsl7, I have given you too many chances to redeem yourself. Take this as your last warning.", even the anonymous person says.
"Are you doing a public execution?
If so, this Venerable would be delighted to see more."
"Who is this lost child even, I never spoke to you anyways.", Tsl7 replies to the anonymous message.
"Hmph. It seems until now you are still uttering lies! I have been too forgiving, its time to make an end to this.", the anonymous voice replies with furiosity.
"What tremendous radiance of aura. You're the type of people I get on my team in the Heavenly Battle Arc.", a new voice called Endo says.
"Sigh, this channel is weird and peculiar, good luck on this topic," Tsl7 complains, as though he were to depart soon.
"Perhaps it is you after all, though of what use is a dead man's words?", Sovereign replies.
"An expansion of the execution process along with Zuwei might be necessary, if you understand," he adds.
"If that is Sovereign's wish then sure… I shall not go against your will.", anonymous voice says.
"
While Endo and Tsl7 complain about all this, the anonymous voice reveals.
"My intelligence is just simply incomprehensible to the cognition of lowly beings like you two."
"Endo, just how do you feel while hearing this?", Tsl7 asks.
"This Sovereign believes you mortals should feel awe in recognition of such heavenly talent, instead of looking down on such individuals."
Venerable Light, without prior announcements, then begins to speak:
"Even on nights when I want to rest, and on busy mornings,
You make a place for me to rest in your heart
I will do better."
Most don't quite understand why Light said that.
In the breezing cold of the dark night, the new constellation of stars align closer, forming a visible thread of lines, representing a symbol each for their own.
In afar, the blue mountains, covered by snow, begin to shake.
"People are all born liars and are mostly used to lying.
If a person that has never lied even once in their lives exists, that existence itself would be a lie.
For humans, lies are an inseparable part of ourselves.", the anonymous voice reveals this truth that is hard to hear.
Sovereign could only agree to this logic in his mind.
Light, however, seemed preoccupied with something different.
"Those who fight and argue all the time on the magic talisman device channels are truly boring and terrible cultivators in real life. For my experience.", a new person called Sauron says.
Earl Zuwei, who had been keeping silent, and who almost disappeared in the shadows of the noise, resurfaced again.
"Can we move all this complaining to [Encrypted] channel or [Encrypted]?"
The anonymous person then attacks.
"Earl Zuwei… do you think by diverging the topic you can avoid the current allegations against you?"
"How old are you really, before declaring that I exploited you?", Zuwei defends.
"Zuwei.. exploiter of those walking the Lunar Yin path, can you bear to take responsibility of such crimes?", Sovereign warns.
While all this unfolds, Light replies to an older message of Sauron instead.
"Haha I agree, can we discuss this over a cup of spiritual plume tea tomorrow?"
"Venerable light.. what are you doing…", Sovereign thinks to himself.
Sauron lets out a chuckle.
A person called Defnot asks what was going on here.
"Zuwei has committed a crime that even the great Heavenly Emperor cannot forgive no matter how many years he tries to repent."
Meanwhile, Light continues the approach to Sauron.
"My offer is still up, I'll decide the time and place when you agree, get back to me with an answer before 800 seconds pass."
"Is slime master aware of this situation? I wonder..", Sovereign privately sends to Light.
"She genuinely thinks I confessed to her with the paragraph I copied from
"O my, I am blushing. I am but a living working rat though, no time to spare," Sauron replies to Light.
Even this time, Study Partner announces his search for players amidst this again.
"I am looking for strong people to grind Heavenly Battle Arc with, I was previously Top 50 ranked!"
It seems his message was a fleeting one, and decayed under the pressure of the important topics.
"Don't worry I'll make reservations for when you're free, don't worry," Light reassures to Sauron.
"Me (almost [Encrypted]) vs Earl Zuwei (old man at the end of his lifespan…. It's clear who the is victim here..", anonymous voice says.
"When the hell did I become an old man, you were stalking me,
"No way… is he really… turning against me?"
"You think this Sovereign, proposer of the idea to execute you, would craft unjust evidence to back the lowly likes of you???"
"What incredible sentencing," Ami thinks.
"
Defnot asks if Sovereign was the judge in a private message to the anonymous person.
At the same time, Light is talking to others in the channel about Heavenly Battle Arc.
"I have sent the brib.... evidence, I mean, to your private channel.
Oh Honorable one, I ask thee take into consideration that she catfished me…", Earl Zuwei attempts to defend.
Although in reality, Zuwei has not sent anything. It was a mere bluff, trying to win over the hearts of the audience while incorporating humor.
"This humble Daoist has been nothing but honest…", anonymous voice says.
"You sent nothing but a disgrace to all mortals in this dimension.
You dare to attempt these lowly methods in order to clear yourself of your crimes?
Earl Zuwei, you must probably not be fearing the consequences of divine intervention…"
"Endo, it has been two hours and she hasn't moved on", Tsl7 laughs.
"Your presence in my clan would make my mood better, I'll wait for you to be my friend one day.", Light invites to Sauron in the meanwhile.
"Hey, ya didn't receive the bribe...I mean evidence because my merchant clan's bank is lagging, I mean my magic talisman device is of poor quality, that's why," Zuwei shamelessly replies.
The blue mountains from afar gazed at this digital conversation of the magic talisman channel.
"Such impudence and mischievousness, you truly have lost your shame and the last bit of dignity that remained in you?"
An unknown sender asks, though nobody answers; "Remind me why are you all are chatting here again?"
To Light's words, Tsl7, who seems to be critical of almost everything, asks.
"That is indeed weird, how are those of the Lunar Yin Path comfortable with that.."
"Don't doubt my intentions junior cultivator.", Light explains.
"Earl zuwei.. now the evidence is clear as white and black on paper.. will you still refuse to confess your crimes?"
Even the anonymous person agrees.
"If you have any honour left in your body then just tell the truth."
"Sovereign believes: Perhaps, the underworld ruler will show a bit of mercy and only condemn you to 500 thousand lifetimes of imprisonment after execution."
"Fine!
Around noon today this stalker confessed her undying love to me.
And I rejected her,
That's the honest truth."
"No… you reciprocated, everyone saw.." anonymous person defends.
"Sir Sovereign, take a look at this, she doesn't deny she confessed to a stranger.
And she doesn't deny the allegations of stalking me for a whole week."
"A few days ago when I was seeking a romantic partner you volunteered," the anonymous voice says.
"Huh, seriously? I did that?"
"Earl Zuwei, you hold no right to claim counter arguments in this matter.
It was you who made the grave mistake of disrespecting the Heavens themselves that you are now condemned to execution and 500 thousand lifetimes of imprisonment.
Your words don't matter anymore, simply accept your punishment to save yourself from further humiliations!
After extorting so many of the Lunar yin path and having so many witnesses and victims gathered, your evil actions cannot be denied anymore!"
"Thank you great sovereign for bringing justice….", anonymous voice thanks.
"If I'm going down, I'm taking you with me, stalker."
"Worry not, as a being who reached the pinnacle of the mortal realm, I still uphold morality and righteousness, as such I frequently enforce the right law in different dimensions!
And, as for Earl Zuwei…
Attempting to create a self-destructing bomb, even when facing total annihilation.
Truly, you as the Representative of the southern wild beast pavilion caused their reputation to sink as low to the underground ruler.. , although, venerable Light and my friends, was it to be expected?"
Still, it seems that Venerable Light is preoccupied with his own conquest.
Light replies to an individual of the Lunar Yin path:
"If I told you about the darkness inside of me, would you still look at me like the I'm the sun?"
"I didn't expect for you to have this profound and mysterious kind of knowledge in expressing yourself..", Sovereign sends to Light.
"Is this how you managed to succeed in all those worldly affairs regarding those of the Jade maiden path?"
Izumi, who seems inexperienced in these matters, replies to this by stating "I will never understand this poet."
The snow on the blue mountains crystallized.
The old dust that gathered on the blue mountains now dissipated after being carried by a breeze of sea wind.
Only in the night sky, a myriad of new star constellations now shine eternally.
Two of the many symbols of these stars have been revealed.
It was the Abundancy of Emotions, as well as next to it the inevitable Clearance of all the Redundancies…
Even now, the Sovereign ponders.
"Peculiar, peculiar. So that is how it was in the end, huh?
Hahaha… this perhaps will be even more interesting than anticipated!!"
And now, after the long night, the sun starts rising again.
This time, the sun carries a brighter light.
A light that inspires and guides.
