Chapter 233 Part 1: The Last Diva’s Magic Replenishment, Continuously Elevated, a-Grade Special Show (1)

In the café, outside the window, it was already dusk. The warm light created ripples in the cup, shattering the reflection within, as if lamenting the passage of time.

Chu Yuanqing did not speak; she finished the cold coffee in her cup and whispered to herself.

A miracle?

If the pendant is a gift from planetary consciousness, then being able to resist the Sea of Truth’s erosion for three months would itself be a miracle.

Chu Yuanqing had once been blessed to glimpse countless possible world lines, and she saw too many others invaded by Disaster, ultimately reduced to ruins, becoming a giant egg of calamity in the universe. Every single thing she observed fell to the Calamity God.

Perhaps this is the limitation of the observer; in the moment she parted the dimensions and pierced through barriers, she could only see more desperate possibilities, and the Sea of Truth…

Chu Yuanqing could not fully understand it; or rather, from a human perspective, it is a collection of entangled information in the world, a concept node of infinite possibilities and countless intertwined universes, an endless convergence and expansion, a sea that overflows in chaos.

The only thing she could confirm is that the Sea of Truth has its own order; it does not care about Disaster, nor about humanity, and certainly not about Chu Yuanqing. The so-called erosion and curse are merely a spontaneous peacekeeping phenomenon.

So in the eyes of others, sending a world line to its end, opening a New Game Plus, and correcting historical concepts is probably equivalent to the universe experiencing a sudden increase in entropy, adding unnecessary disorder.

Under this premise, a spontaneous correction would take place to reduce the added entropy.

In other words, the pure white wall that spanned the globe 17 years ago, along with the thirteen suppressed Calamity Gods and the budding Disasters, was essentially her struggle against this correction mechanism.

Well, from this perspective, she truly deserves to have broken through the first playthrough, merging blessings and authority into one as the savior.

Although 17 years may seem very short from the standpoint of the Sea of Truth, even shorter than a Planck time, for the tiny lives on a planet, it is truly a great miracle.

Chu Yuanqing does not hate the Sea of Truth, nor does she feel guilty for venturing into New Game Plus, knowing it might cause trouble for her on a larger scale; she has always been a steadfast person. Everything she has done so far was simply to reach the future that everyone has been hoping for.

As for the evaluations, praises, and insults she has received along the way, they are merely by-products of her journey and are not important.

Chu Yuanqing looked at Charlotte and softly said:

"I accepted the reality that I would die a long time ago."

The Pure White Witch lowered her eyes, lost in thought, with a slight smile on her lips, sincerely expressing feelings she had kept hidden for a long time:

"For me, life should have ended at the moment you took your own life. It was Little Shu who gave me a reason to continue living in this new era. Looking back on these 17 years… it truly feels like a dream I never want to wake up from."

"But dreams always wake up, don’t they?"

"Charlotte, I saw you lively on stage. After ‘Dazzling Stage’ ends, you will surely become the world’s number one idol, fulfilling a wish that was once just a dream."

Chu Yuanqing’s gentle smile lit up her face; she looked more beautiful than ever, her skin shining like fine porcelain, delicate and lovely, as if it could break at any moment. The lips that had kissed her felt soft like petals, showing a rosy hue, yet they appeared so transparent when they curled up.

"Miyuki had a hard life before. Now that she gets a second chance, she found something she truly loves, and it’s exactly the idol you like the most. You two should get along better now, right?"

"Liuli is a little shy, and her family isn’t good to her, so please remember to take care of her. Qingxuan can be a bit stubborn; she is very smart when she wants to be, but sometimes very stubborn, so she might need your help too."

"I can’t remember much about Liuli and Qingxuan anymore, but if they regain their memories someday, please tell them I’m sorry."

"And there’s Little Shu; I think you recognized her, right? She’s on my team now. You once stuffed a sun hat in her arms, and I don’t know how to make that girl believe you are her mother."

As Charlotte listened to Chu Yuanqing’s words, like a secret being shared, she finally understood where the fear and pain gripping her heart came from. It wasn’t because the Sea of Truth was so powerful, and it wasn’t about how scary the challenges ahead were, but because…

Chu Yuanqing didn’t want to live anymore.

This retired savior is full of indifference to her own life and death. Her will to live has nearly withered away, to the point where she needs to struggle to suppress her desires for self-destruction.

Charlotte understands that this is related to the years of erosion from the Sea of Truth, but more importantly, it is about the bet she made with Little Qing. She believes that her sacrifice can make up for the collapse of Pure White and allow peace to continue.

On the other hand, it is about her own appearance.

If Charlotte had not regained her memories, with Chu Yuanqing’s personality, she would surely worry about her daughter’s future. But now, the appearance of her lovely daughter’s birth mother not only means that her daughter will have someone to care for her in the future, but it also means there is a reliable ally to suppress the upcoming Disaster Wave.

In simple terms, the tense string that Chu Yuanqing had held for years has loosened, leading to a chaotic collapse like an avalanche. She can no longer control her desire for "release," only thinking about quietly passing away afterward.

Charlotte understands Chu Yuanqing’s exhaustion and the loneliness of being isolated for 17 years. She knows that the person in front of her has truly suffered and worked hard.

So, the Last Diva did not angrily interrupt or shed sad tears. She controlled all her emotions, her eyes curved gently, showing a warm and bright expression as she focused on her beloved, quietly listening to the Pure White Witch’s murmurs.

Chu Yuanqing felt as if she was being comforted by a spring breeze. She was very happy to have someone who could listen to her share these thoughts, her lips curling up a little more, exuding a hint of warmth.

Charlotte’s eyes were filled with laughter, like a spinning kaleidoscope, reflecting a captivating charm. She slightly tilted her head, resting her chin on her hand, looking at the other person’s face, her lips moved as she softly said:

"Little Qing, let’s kiss."

Chu Yuanqing felt the topic changed too quickly, and she was a bit confused, so she instinctively asked,

"Right here?"

Charlotte put on a confident attitude and answered,

"Of course! Time waits for no one. Didn’t Little Qing plan for me to be a young widow? I don’t want to witness Little Shu get married in the future without having kissed very much; that would be so embarrassing."

For a moment, Chu Yuanqing thought Charlotte made a lot of sense, but something felt a bit strange. Before she could think too much, she was embraced by the soft form of the girl, feeling the squishy warmth like a mango, bringing a dizzying sweet scent.

This time, unlike their previous shy and timid pecks, it was like two armies battling, each fighting passionately, making the war fierce, launching great forces, attacking and defending, causing the spring water to ripple and create waves, splashing everywhere.

Thus, the magic enhancement mechanism was triggered in them for the first time.

It was a clash of pure white and glowing blue, and at the moment their magic met, it created an unprecedented intense reaction. The Flowers of the Soul on both sides swayed together, and the lanterns in front of their chests shone brightly, remarkably dyed with each other’s colors.

At that moment, Chu Yuanqing’s silver magic, bright like the moonlight, and the magic stored in the paper crane jar, all flowed back into the depths of Charlotte’s soul, creating a roaring chaos, as if conquering and overwhelming her senses in a wonderful way.

At the same time, the deep blue magic on Charlotte also surged into the soul of the Pure White Witch like rushing water, starting a coloring game of mutual invasion.

The magic of these two magical girls seemed to be given life, filled with spirit, connecting in that moment, briefly becoming one, exchanging with each passing second, expanding in both quality and quantity.

In the eyes of the dream weaver, Chu Yuanqing and Charlotte were both magical girls with the potential of "Kline," and they shared memories from a previous timeline, creating feelings of love and happiness far greater than that of a little idol who had yet to reclaim the past.

This led to a kiss that was meant to be just a taste, but now could not be stopped, quickly spiraling into chaos just seconds after triggering a magic replenishment.

Charlotte’s deep blue pupils suddenly widened, filled with mist, her focus beginning to blur; she clearly didn’t know that adult kisses could trigger a magic replenishment, and she was caught off guard, losing her composure in less than a minute.

Chu Yuanqing was pressed against the floor-to-ceiling window, her back against the cool glass, a tempting flush spreading across her cheeks. Even in her unconscious glance, she caught sight of people passing by on the street, sometimes meeting the gazes of strangers who couldn’t see inside, filling her with shame.

Hmm, it feels very much like a strange story.
