"I understand...maybe."

Having witnessed the entirety of that era, she was even more certain that she understood better than ever why the man before her had become who he was today.

"But understanding does not equate to agreement."

"Kevin, everyone has the potential to be a hero."

"But you... shouldn't expect everyone to become the 'hero' you choose."

"This is not the outcome she wanted."

Kevin: Raiden Mei

There will never be another Alicia.

"The outcome she wanted was never [here]...26"

"It's in you."

Kevin's words seemed to have a hidden meaning.

But at that moment, no one could understand the meaning of his words.

Mei couldn't understand either.

She simply believed that Kevin was completely obsessed and couldn't be persuaded otherwise.

She understands Kevin, but she will never help him complete that so-called "Stigmata Project".

"It seems... I have lost the last reason to remain in this world."

"So, your real purpose in recruiting a Herrscher into World Serpent in the first place..."

"I've finished it, haven't I?"

Everyone was stunned when they saw this.

But they quickly realized what was happening.

And then... my eyes felt hot.

They remembered the pink fairy's enthusiastic manner when Mei first entered Paradise.

After watching the entire story of "Paradise of the Past", they naturally understood Mei's significance to Alicia.

To be more precise, Mei's Herrscher identity is of great significance to Alicia.

A little joke Alicia made before she died: "If you ever meet another Herrscher who stands on the side of humanity like me, you must tell me!"

One sentence made Kevin remember it for 5 years.

Even if she was just a memory in the paradise of the past.

However, Kevin still managed to recruit Mei into the World Serpent and send her to "Alicia".

It's as if it's saying: Look, your sacrifice wasn't in vain.

Tears welled up in my eyes.

Mei and Bronya in front of the live stream almost couldn't hold back their emotions.

That's the main storyline...

If you're not careful, you can easily cause an eom.

……

"Well then, that's settled... Raiden Mei"

"As the [Lord], I grant you permission to leave the World Serpent."

And with that, this short segment of the story comes to an end.

Mei stared blankly at the level selection screen, remaining silent.

Although I already knew this part of the plot when I was doing the voice acting.

But when I watched it again from the audience's perspective, I still found it hard to hold back.

After a long while, Mei finally took a deep breath.

Restart the next level.

When the loading animation ends.

When the scene unfolds again, it shows a conversation between Raven and Kevin.

As before, the riddle-maker spoke throughout.

Kevin actually asked such a strange question as "Why can birds fly?"

The raven's answer was, "Birds can fly, by nature."

But the answer Kevin wanted to hear was—"Birds fly because they want to; it's the destiny they create for themselves."

Although they don't understand it, players know that this should be a foreshadowing, right?

Just like the previous chapters.

Every plot point is foreshadowed at the beginning.

Their conversation might be related to the "Identity Project"?

……

After this part of the story, the focus finally shifts to Mei.

After emerging from the underground passage, Mei's identity is no longer that of a member of World Serpent.

Seeing this, players are actually quite excited.

Where will the World Serpent go after Mei leaves?

Of course, we should return to Destiny, return to Hyperion!

After so long, Mei and her former companions are finally able to be together again. How can anyone not be excited?

By then, it should be full of candy.

Immediately, the audience began to look forward to what would happen next.

…………

"Raven, is there something you want to tell me?"

Within the World Serpent, Raven is the only one who can be considered Mei's "friend".

Now that Mei is about to leave World Serpent, only Raven has come to see her off.

The two came from the underground base to the surface wasteland, and then followed the shepherd's path into the ruined city.

During this rather long journey, the two did not exchange a single word.

Until Mei asked that question.

"Who knows?" Raven shrugged, gazing into the distance.

"If we go any further, we'll reach the territory of destiny."

"If I had really thought about what I wanted to say, I should have told you clearly from the beginning."

"..."

After another moment of silence, Mei asked softly, "Are Sora and the others alright?"

Raven nodded: "Of course, after all this time, they're all a bit bursting with energy."

As if he had thought of something, a smile appeared on Raven's lips.

"You know what? The last time I went back, I saw that the wallpaper of the villa was covered with all sorts of graffiti."

"There was even a stick figure lying on the ground rolling around, and they all said that was me."

……

Upon seeing this, everyone smiled knowingly.

The story of the villa on Raven Island... was truly quite amusing.

Whether it was Mei in the game or Mei in front of the live stream, they both burst out laughing.

Raven seems to have really stopped caring about the island villa.

The audience's somewhat anxious mood was largely dispelled by this plot development.

Then...

Is Mei about to leave this place and head to Schicksal to reunite with Kiana and the others?

however……

However, the story did not unfold in the direction that players wanted to see.

In a conversation that followed between Mei and Raven—

Raven tells Mei that she needs to complete some tasks personally assigned by Kevin.

Key phrase: Kevin personally assigned.
