Yang Qizhou chose to agree, though he had so complaints about the text package.
Could you stop with the sarcastic remarks already, damn it.
"You have skillfully concealed your fascination with the young girl's beauty and generously expressed your willingness to help."
"Alice was very grateful for your kindness and told you how to return to Fire Stealing Village. Apparently, the village was under the blessing of the Fire Stealing Ancient God, and without the guidance of the 'Fire Spark,' it's impossible to navigate the correct path into the village. As it turns out, making a 'Fire Spark' isn't complicated; you just need to gather a 'Firestone,' 'Dead Wood,' and 'oil fire cloth.'"
"You asked where to find these materials."

"Alice explained that these materials weren't hard to find. The 'Firestone' can be found on Fire Stealing Mountain, which serves as a sacrificial altar dedicated to the Fire Stealing Ancient God. Stones infused with the god's aura can be used as Firestones. 'Dead Wood' can be picked up anywhere in the forest. The oil fire cloth is a bit trickier—it's sothing unique to Fire Stealing Village. However, Alice ntioned that she once stole so oil fire cloth from her father as a mischievous child and hid it in a cave about three hundred ters away from here."
"You felt conflicted and subtly ntioned the dangers lurking in the wilderness, suggesting that wandering aimlessly could cost you your life. You asked if there were any other thods."
"Alice said there was no other way to enter the village."
"After hesitating for a long ti, Alice took out a palm-sized bone fragnt and said that the 'Night Watcher Remains' would protect you."
"You acquired the item 'Night Watcher Remains.'"
Fire Stealing Village should be the village hidden beyond the gray-white fog.
Yang Qizhou had initially planned to die once more, but to his surprise, the NPC seeking help turned out to belong to the Lawful Good alignnt and even issued a quest to enter the village.
It's a pity this is a text-based ga; you can't actually see how beautiful Alice is.
Night Watcher Remains (Quest Item): Contains imnse power that makes the eerie beings of the wilderness tremble. Cannot be brought back to reality.
"You accepted the 'Night Watcher Remains,' and an uncontrollable greed stirred within you. Yet, to win the favor of the beautiful Alice, you decided to play the role of a good person for once."
"Before setting out, you rembered the terrifying experience of being torn apart in the dark during your last destiny."
"You asked Alice why you seed so afraid of the night, and what the reason was."
"Alice looked puzzled, as if she couldn't believe you didn't know such a basic thing. Nonetheless, the beautiful Alice answered your question."
"Nightti is the domain of the Lord of Night, a great, exalted, and ancient god. His offspring dwell in the dark, and any living creature trespassing into the night becos food for them. If you don't reach Fire Stealing Village to receive protection before nightfall, you'll be devoured by the Lord of Night's offspring."
"You noticed Alice trembling and quickly stepped forward to comfort her, promising to ensure her safe return to the village."
The text... feels so awkward.
Yang Qizhou frowned, sensing that sothing was off but unable to pinpoint it. He decided to put it aside and continue playing.
"You arrived at Fire Stealing Mountain, and under the dusk's light, you felt countless malevolent gazes fixating on you. The 'Night Watcher Remains' in your hand scared them off."
"You acquired a Firestone."
"You entered the forest. While it lacked the spine-chilling atmosphere of Fire Stealing Mountain, it was still eerie. With nightfall approaching, your movents beca increasingly frantic."
"You gained Dead Wood."
"You reached the cave where the oil fire cloth was supposedly hidden. Sothing terrifying seed to be lurking inside, but they were afraid of the 'Night Watcher Remains' you held and didn't attack."
"You acquired oil fire cloth."
"You returned to Alice's side. The beautiful girl from Fire Stealing Village gratefully acknowledged your kindness. After giving you a kiss on the cheek, she took back the 'Night Watcher Remains' and started crafting the Fire Spark."
"You lost the 'Night Watcher Remains.'"
"You acquired Fire Spark..."
Fire Spark (Normal): A torch to illuminate the night, imbued with faint divine power from the Fire Stealing Ancient God. Allows passage through the mist to the real path leading to Fire Stealing Village.
Without any deaths along the way, every step of the quest went smoothly. This left Yang Qizhou, who had grown accustod to dying, feeling sowhat uneasy.
The text continued to scroll.
"You supported Alice as you headed toward Fire Stealing Village, and along the way, you noticed her heartbeat quickening."
"At that mont, a twisted monster that had road the desolate land for ages launched an attack on you two. At the critical juncture, Alice shielded you, severely injured in the process. She weakly handed you the 'Night Watcher Remains,' shouting for you to run while she stayed back to fend off the twisted monster."
"You chose to flee."
"Guided by the Fire Spark, you passed through the blessing of the Fire Stealing Ancient God and arrived at Fire Stealing Village, only to stumble upon a Night Watcher."
"You sought help from the Night Watcher, explaining Alice's peril. The Night Watcher's expression turned to shock as they revealed that there was indeed a mber of the Night Watcher squad nad Porter, who had been highly favored by the Fire Stealing Ancient God and had slain many twisted monsters. But Porter had died three years ago."
"You suddenly felt a chill crawling up your spine. A grotesque sensation suggested that so terrifying monster had followed you to Fire Stealing Village."
"Horrifying events unfolded. The buildings of Fire Stealing Village began to rot and decay at a visible pace. The Night Watcher before you aged rapidly in terror and died. You felt weak, your mind dulled, your skin wrinkled, several teeth fell out, your vision blurred."
"Through the haze, you faintly heard Alice's voice, thanking you for showing her the way."
"You died."
The suspicion was correct: Alice definitely had issues.
Yang Qizhou slamd his fist on the sofa. He had felt sothing was odd earlier—if Alice feared the arrival of nightfall so much, why did she describe the 'Lord of Night' using terms like 'exalted,' 'great,' and 'ancient,' which carried reverence? Furthermore, when the twisted monster attacked, why didn't the 'Night Watcher Remains' seem to protect them?
Now he understood.
She was very likely a follower of the 'Lord of Night,' and the twisted monster was summoned by her.
"If my guess is right, the oil fire cloth ca from Alice killing a Night Watcher, the monsters on Fire Stealing Mountain and in the cave were raised by her, and even the power in the 'Night Watcher Remains' that repelled the twisted monsters wasn't from the Night Watchers themselves but from the remnants of her killing them."
"Oh, and—"
"That Old God believer who resented the Wizard's aura—was it her as well?"
Deeply aware of how Deceit World influences reality, Yang Qizhou no longer treated it as just a ga. He took it seriously and analyzed every piece of text thoroughly.
The ga continued,
"You've reached the River of Death yet again. Although the light of Destiny's Blessing still flickers and the 'Dark Crow of Profane Fortune' continues to cry, please cherish your life."
"Now make your choice, explorer who repeatedly dies."
"Will you use the power of destiny to rewrite the outco of your death?"
"Or will you rely on the strength of the 'Dark Crow of Profane Fortune' to return to the mont of your last choice?"
Normal resurrection had two chances left. The 'Dark Crow of Profane Fortune' could be used one more ti. Yang Qizhou already knew what he would choose. Although he hadn't imdiately deduced that Alice was a follower of the 'Lord of Night,' he had long anticipated the prospect of sudden death.
He chose the 'Dark Crow of Profane Fortune' to return to his last decision point.
Don't forget:
The 'Fire Spark' is still in play.
