Chapter 26: A Deity?
As if responding to the plight of the itz Star People, heavy rain began to pour from the sky. Torrents of rain drenched their bodies, yet no matter how hard it fell, it could not wash away the blood.
Mu Yang felt no comfort in his heart. He simply watched the scene in silence. Among humans, there also existed the saying, “Those not of my kin must have different hearts.” So then… was he still considered human? He felt sowhat lost.
Afterwards, he smiled faintly to himself. He wasn’t even a native of this Earth’s world to begin with—so why should he care? The Earthlings of this world were not a result of natural evolution. The original Earthlings had already been wiped out once by humans, and then further exterminated by Seven. In contrast, Mu Yang’s past life was that of a true Earthling—one who had evolved step by step.
The two were inherently different.
“They’re about to erge!” Xiang Xiushu gazed into the distance. The shadow of Muruqi was already faintly visible, and at this mont, his heart, too, was heavy.
This tragedy should never have happened in the first place—especially the death of the itz Star People. It was sothing he found hard to let go of.
“You go up next,” Mu Yang let out a light sigh. “Honestly, I think the Land of Light should start engaging more in dialogue with humans. They ought to tell humanity more about the universe.”
Humans would never dare provoke the Ultras—after all, the Ultra Star housed countless Ultran. Even if these Ultras weren’t the combat-type, they were not beings humanity could afford to offend. Aligning with them was the only viable path forward.
He just hoped that humans would refrain from courting death so often in the future.
Xiang Xiushu remained silent. In truth, they had always been trying to prevent such tragedies—but now, it seed that perhaps it truly was ti for so changes.
“I’ll leave Jiro to you, then,” Xiang Xiushu pulled Jiro over and addressed Mu Yang.
“Let’s go, Jiro,” Mu Yang sighed again, preparing to take Jiro with him and leave.
“You seem a bit lost too,” said a female voice after Mu Yang had walked so distance. The voice reached his ears, and Mu Yang turned his gaze towards it. He saw a young girl standing not far away, smiling at him.
Upon seeing her appearance, Mu Yang’s pupils constricted. “It’s you?” He imdiately recognised the voice. But why was she here—and why did she look like that?
Mai-senpai? His two-dinsional waifu? Why was she appearing here? This was the Earth’s Will… but why had it taken on such a form?
“You’ve recognised ?” she said as she stepped closer.
“Why do you look like this?” Mu Yang frowned and asked with suspicion. This world shouldn’t even have a Sakurajima Mai. Was this just a coincidence?
What a pity—it was just a school uniform. If only it were the bunny girl outfit, that would be even better.
“Mu Yang-gege, who are you talking to?” Jiro asked curiously. Was Mu Yang-gege losing it? Or had the appearance of the monsters triggered sothing in him? He was talking to thin air!
“Huh? You can’t see or hear her?” Mu Yang asked, confused.
“See what?” Jiro looked at Mu Yang speechlessly. Was there anyone else here? Looks like once they got ho, Mu Yang-gege would need a visit to the psychologist.
Word was that the psychiatric hospitals in Yingzhou had beco especially popular lately. Quite a few had recently opened up. Every so often, there’d be people who were scared out of their minds by monsters and aliens—so went mad, and others developed permanent psychological trauma that couldn’t be resolved.
Thankfully, Mu Yang wasn’t aware of Jiro’s thoughts. If he knew, he might be scared half to death. Getting into a psychiatric hospital was easy—but getting out was another matter entirely. Even those without ntal illness could be forcibly diagnosed and held by these so-called psychiatric experts.
“Only you can see ,” “Sakurajima Mai” explained to Mu Yang.
“I see,” Mu Yang sighed quietly. Perhaps he wasn’t the only one—if Xiang Xiushu were here, he might also be able to see the Earth’s Will.
“As for why I look like this—it’s your fault!” The Earth’s Will sounded sowhat resentful.
“?” Mu Yang was stunned. What did this have to do with him? He rembered that back then, he had only released a beam of light to help Earth awaken its own light. He didn’t think he had done anything unusual.
Could this really be so sort of avatar-creation ga? Could he actually customise how it looked according to his preferences?
But quickly, Mu Yang abandoned that thought. This was Earth-chan—no matter how pretty she looked, no matter how much she resembled Sakurajima Mai—she was still just a “little broken ball.”
Other people might fall in love with heaven and earth, but would he really fall for the planet Earth?
“That light back then made take this form!” Earth’s Will said irritably.
Mu Yang frowned. His light had caused this transformation? But in theory, his light should have been perfectly pure. Could it be that sothing unexpected had happened?
Thinking it over, Mu Yang decided not to dwell on it. Things had already co to this—what could he do, destroy the Earth’s Will?
Besides, she could technically be considered a friend now.
