The night of "Without a Trace".

Brilliant starry sky. In summer, there are fireflies flying around, as if playing, chasing me in the flat field, lively and lively. The uninhabited meadows are more tranquil because of their bustle.

It's a place that isn't much of the way to find it, and it's perfect for couples or those who want to find a place to think quietly.

A man who looked to be in his sixties lay quietly on the grass, silently facing the starry sky overhead.

His level is only level 1. Strangely enough, however, this player doesn't have a name.

A person who can enter the gaming world without registering an ID is a wonder in every sense.

"Dad, what happened to you today?"

A beautiful middle-aged woman who looked to be in her thirties stood not far from him and asked leisurely.

She had never seen a father with such a solemn look as he did now.

"Many, many complicated things have happened...... "The man in his sixties sighed faintly and said slowly, "so much so that I will keep thinking about it in my life, and it is so complicated that I probably can't ......explain it to you in my life."

"Really?". The middle-aged woman sighed lightly and asked.

"Yes." Her father sighed lightly and replied lightly.

"Then you think about it slowly." The middle-aged woman sighed again, and she also lay down not far away, looking at the same bright starry sky.

She only knew that her father had a big fight with another player today, and that she had saved her father's life in the most urgent moment after the war, but she couldn't imagine who it was, what kind of battle it was, and what kind of battle could change her father, who had always been cynical, to the extent that it could be said to be reborn.

Her father had always been stubborn — "the more frustrated he is, the more courageous" — and as his own daughter, she knew this best. In the past few decades, this characteristic of her father has also given her countless headaches. But today, just one battle, just that battle, not only broke all his strength, directly knocked out all his game characters, but also seemed to break his entire heart.

How strong was that man for her father to be so completely defeated—she wanted to find out this with her father right now, but her instincts also told her that the problem was ......

I'm afraid that's what my father is thinking about right now.

……

Is that what it feels like to be desperate?

Have I been bringing this despair to others all along?

What have I done all along......

The magical girls I used to love finally appeared in front of me today, but they all regarded me as an absolute enemy.

There was not a hint of hesitation.

In fact, without me, there would be no them.

"Well, that's wrong...... It's a man......" After the most ugly, Xiao Meiyan said so......

It turned out that the guy was really a man.

But all this, is he a man or a woman, and now for me, is there still a need to be entangled?

The girls recognized him, even if they knew that he was a man, even if they knew that he was playing with their girls' bodies as a man.

The determined look in their eyes as they fought, the sincere concern for his physical condition when they returned to his body, Xiao Meiyan's complaining but actually happy words at the end of the sentence......

If it were me, give me another ten years—well, maybe a hundred years—I am afraid that he would not be able to do it to his extent.

I was so cleanly defeated, utterly defeated.

Maybe it's only now that I'm defeated, and when I look back, I realize ——..., how thoroughly I was a villain......

Well, or is it — I've always been in that role?

"People who bring despair to others will not be welcomed."

I've been in the kind of unpopular role that brings despair to others.

Only now that I look back, I suddenly realize that I am almost like that damn Cuppy.

I've always considered myself a god and thought I could dominate all living beings......

But now it seems that I am nothing more than a source of despair.

Playing with the hopes of others and stifling the hopes of others......

Someone like me, even if it is another 10,000 years......

I'm afraid I won't let Madoka smile sincerely because I recruited a few other girls, and I won't let Xiao Meiyan have a unique and warm complaint at the last moment.

Despair numbs a person. Even if I can control them, even if I finally get them to resign themselves to my mercy after a long time, but ......

They are numb and desperate, and they will never smile like that and complain like that to me.

I was on the wrong path, in the wrong direction, from the very beginning.

All along, when others rebelled against me, I still refused to admit it.

I suppressed others with my own strength.

I thought I had a lot of power.

But now it seems that my so-called "powerful power" is ridiculous.

The only one who really has the strength of the power is the powerful boy.

His power was so powerful that he could perform one miracle after another that seemed to me almost completely impossible.

He can be strong enough to be forced into that desperate situation by me and still not give up, and he can also be strong enough to enter the witch state and still not blacken.

And I'm afraid I'm already black before I even enter the demonic state.

He's the real power......

Strength from within.

And I, on the other hand, was nothing more than blinded by the superficial genius and strength.

……

"Daddy, you...... What are you doing? The middle-aged woman, who was lying on the grass and watching the starry sky in boredom, saw a faint light on her father's body in confusion.

"Don't worry, Jun," the man in his sixties smiled calmly, "I just thought of my character name and continued to use my special method to officially recreate a game character." ”

"Your character name ......" The middle-aged woman quickly looked at his father when she heard this.

Then she saw two familiar words.

"[Professor]? How is [Professor]? She cried out in surprise, "Don't you hate being called that the most?" ”。

"That was before," [the professor] smiled and said, "because you call me [Professor], it makes me feel very old, and there are so many professors in the world, and it doesn't sound like it, so I don't like it, but now ......"

"Now?" The middle-aged woman was skeptical.

"There are always people in the world who make mistakes that they shouldn't make but that many people are prone to make, but fortunately, they came to their senses early and learned some valuable lessons. Among these people, I was included. "[The professor] said slowly, "As a [person who has come before], it is necessary for us to pass on these valuable lessons to those who come after us—"

"Those who [teach] and those who teach and solve doubts are also ......"

"This is who I am now, and I am also the person I want to be in the future."

"Daddy......"

"It's called [Professor]."

"......" The middle-aged woman was speechless. She suddenly felt that it would be difficult to change her name to "Daddy" after changing her name to "Daddy" today. Is this a delusion?

"And what do you plan to do in the future?" After a pause, the middle-aged woman continued, "How can I help you if you want to be reborn in the Earth World Realm?" "No," [the professor] shook his head, "and that's not needed for me now." The ancients said, [Chaowen Dao, death can be carried away], I am now also considered to have an epiphany, except for wanting to tell these epiphany more to some people who have fallen into a lost path or are about to fall into a lost path, I have no desire or desire. There are so many people in the world without a trace, and now for me, it makes no difference whether the rest of my time is spent here or in the earth world. Maybe I'm more convenient in this. ”

"That'...... So what do you want to do in the future? The middle-aged woman asked with concern, "You can't just go up and reason like Tang Seng when you see someone......

"Of course I don't need this, and I'm not that stupid." [The Professor] couldn't help but laugh when he heard his daughter's analogy, "But that boy today—oh no, girl—that girl today gave me a good hint......

"What's the hint?" The middle-aged woman asked.

"If anyone goes astray like I used to be," [the professor] quickly regained his usual self-confidence, holding his head high, "then I'll go and beat him up like that girl."

……

"Then Dad," the middle-aged woman really changed her words, and it was difficult to change it back, and now she could no longer call [Professor] "Professor", "I'll take you to practice for a while, after all, I still have ninety levels." ”

"No, I can settle the upgrade myself, the first dozens of levels are easy, very, very easy." [The professor] said unhurriedly, "I have two other important things that I need your help with. ”

"What's the matter?"

"First, find the players I have controlled before, I owe them too much, if I can, hey...... I wish I could make up for them. ”

"And the second?"

"Second, help me ask about a girl named [Shana-Xiao] who looks like Shana or imitates Shana all the year round, help me get in touch with her, and then tell her that I have some ...... that I might have for her Well...... Her...... Her...... Well...... Her sweetheart has something useful to give them. ”

"The first one is okay, I've seen those people before, and I have some information." The middle-aged woman thought for a moment and said, "But the second one is not so easy, I have never met the person you are talking about. ”

"It's easy."

"Huh?"

"If you really can't find it, or the other party doesn't believe it and doesn't want to come out to see you, you can go to the main city of Xiangyang to make a few announcements and find a senior sister surnamed Xiao."

"Huh?" ……，
