[You have defeated the second Titanoboa.]
[Remaining: 1]
[Ti left: 15:34]
After so more struggle and using the sa thod, we managed to kill another one with sufficient ti left. It left us with only one more remaining.
A few other carriages had also managed to hunt a Titanoboa, though there were nurous casualties along the way.
The only ones with two kills now were us and carriage [5]. And we needed to finish the scenario before the [5th] carriage. There was no other way.
But it seed like fate had other plans. The thing I had been dreading the most and hoped wouldn’t happen happened.
[Carriage [5] has killed 3 Titanoboas. They have completed the first requirent. ]
[They are free to leave the current scenario zone.]
This was the worst thing that could have happened. I won’t lie, we were in trouble now.
"This fast? How is that possible?!"
"Who are from the carriage [5]? I don’t see anyone with that tag!"
"Tch. Lucky bastards!"
Their voices carried clear jealousy. Fools, to say the least. Carriage [5] wasn’t a group of people like others, but a single person.
I turned to Charles. "Run. Right now."
He frowned, still trying to process things. "But we just need to kill one more. Do we really need to run?"
"Yes, you dumbfuck. We’re both going to die if ’she’ catches us."
Shia looked between us, genuinely confused about what we were talking about. "Arin, who is she? And why are you so scared of her?"
Even if I explained it, they wouldn’t understand. She wasn’t just strong.
She was the true protagonist of this world.
All I could hope was that she wasn’t on her [7th Regression] right now, because if she was, this situation would beco far more complicated.
And then it happened.
ZAP!
A streak of lightning passed so fast that my eyes barely caught it. In that next instant, Charles’ body was lifted off the ground as small hands closed tightly around his throat.
There had been no warning. One mont, there was empty space, and the next, she was standing there.
A small girl, no older than nine.
Her long white hair drifted softly behind her, and her blue eyes looked ahead with a calm that didn’t belong in a place like this. There was no emotion in them, no hesitation, as thin arcs of electricity moved around her body like it was sothing completely natural.
Two small fangs showed slightly as she tilted her head, still holding Charles in the air as if he weighed nothing.
"Hey, what are you doing?!"
"He’s from our group, leave him alone!"
"Do you want to get killed?!"
Voices rose from my part mbers. They were loud and reckless.
I clenched my jaw. These idiots had no idea who they were poking.
But before I could stop them, the girl vanished.
ZAP! ZAP! ZAP!
In the next instant, lightning spread around us, flashing from one point to another so quickly that it was impossible to follow. Each streak appeared and disappeared before the sound could even catch up.
Then everything went still again.
The three people who had spoken before were left standing where they had been. For a brief mont, nothing seed different... until I noticed what was missing.
Their heads were gone.
A short distance away, the girl stood quietly, holding them in her hands as if they were nothing more than objects.
A cold chill ran down my spine. There was no doubt anymore.
This was her.
The one who had regressed 1,513 tis, forced to live through this ruined world again and again.
The loneliest existence in this entire world.
Victoria Veritas Auctor.
And right now, she was angry.
"You, who are you?"
Her gaze slowly turned toward , calm and steady, as if the Titanoboas around her ant nothing.
My body reacted before my thoughts could catch up, and I activated Character List almost on instinct, trying to suppress the uneasiness crawling up my spine.

The list continued far beyond what I could process at once, the lines stacking over each other as more information kept appearing.
[Warning: So information cannot be accessed.]
I slowly exhaled, but the tension didn’t leave my body.
This wasn’t normal.
No, this wasn’t sothing that should even be possible in the early scenarios. Only she could achieve this.
Then her eyes t mine.
It didn’t feel like she was just looking at . It felt like she was trying to look through .
For a brief mont, neither of us moved. Then a faint smile ford on her lips.
"You... How are you still alive?"
My body stiffened without realizing it. At that mont, The answer to this world, the one existence that stood above all variables and outcos...
...was standing right in front of .
