Chapter 124

[The Planet of Festivities cannot accommodate you, puppet of Nihility.]

[People living in the shadows should not step onto the bright stage.]

This mysterious presence began to issue an eviction order to Acheron.

[As for living in the shadows, I don't think there's any difference between us.]

[At least when talking to others, you should show your true face...]

[Dreammaster of Penacony.]

Stelle: "Dreammaster?!"

Stelle: "Has the biggest boss of Penacony finally appeared?"

Stelle: "But what is this method?"

Stelle: "Why control a group of people to speak for him?"

March 7th: "Uh... his method, why does it feel a bit shady."

March 7th: "Doesn't... seem like a good person?"

Furina: "Do you think he's afraid that Miss Acheron will slash him to death..."

Furina: "So he intentionally controlled so many people to threaten Miss Acheron?"

Furina: "He is sure that Miss Acheron won't kill innocent people, so he has nothing to fear?"

Hu Tao: "That makes sense!"

Hu Tao: "Otherwise, why would he be hiding?"

Hu Tao: "He must have been scared by Miss Acheron's slash!"

Welt: "The Dreammaster of Penacony... is mysterious."

Himeko: "Not showing his true face, it always feels a bit strange."

Dan Heng: "The secret behind Penacony... is it related to this Dreammaster?"

Zhongli: "That purple bird... it's here too."

Zhongli: "But as Mr. Sunday's servant, without Mr. Sunday's orders, how could it come here privately?"

Zhongli: "But Mr. Sunday should be in an unknown state of death right now..."

Zhongli: "Could it be... that it is still related to the Dreammaster?"

Welt: "Mr. Zhongli's guess is exactly what I was thinking."

Welt: "I just don't know what this Dreammaster is planning."

Stelle: "Who cares what he's planning?"

Stelle: "I only know that if he really has bad intentions toward Acheron..."

Stelle: "I'm afraid he's going to get slashed hard..."

Sparkle: "Good to watch, love to watch, hope to see this scene soon~"

The video continues.

[Hahahaha...]

[There is one more reason why I can't let you stay.]

[But whether you believe it or not, this is the real me.]

[Not only that, everyone is.]

The Dreammaster began to control everyone,

surrounding Acheron.

[Is this the 'unity of all' in the Family's 1.3?]

Acheron looked at this scene,

showing a hint of surprise.

[My mortal body has long dissipated, the 107,336 children of the Oak Family are now my eyes, ears, and mouth; when the era needs it, I will spread the harmony in this dream...]

[When necessary... exile the evil from this paradise for me.]

The Dreammaster controlled everyone to speak.

[Sounds like you want me to leave Penacony.]

Acheron crossed her arms,

her expression becoming even more calm.

[I am glad you still have self-awareness, unfortunately, there is no 'please'.]

The Dreammaster's words were very impolite.

[You think you can do it.]

Acheron felt that this Dreammaster was a bit crazy.

[Are you threatening me?]

The Dreammaster's tone froze slightly.

[Mm... I used a period.]

[This is a... statement.]

[You are not the first, nor will you be the last, to show such malice after knowing my identity.]

[This scene has happened too many times; facing my inquiry, people mostly ask what's wrong with it.]

[But the result... has always been 'it is not allowed'.]

Acheron used the most low-key tone

to say the most domineering words.

[You are confident, but please remember—the Family is humble, but never weak.]

[The sound of Harmony spreads throughout the universe; if you do not comply, as long as that long blade leaves its sheath, you will never escape the wrath of the Infinite Captain in your lifetime.]

[And before that... 137 people, this is the number of foreigners I have personally exiled since becoming the Dreammaster.]

[Some of them broke my wings, some burned my body...]

[But today, I am still standing here, and I don't mind adding one more to this number.]

Stelle: "Sister Acheron is a social boss, ruthless and talks a lot!"

Stelle: "A mere Dreammaster, daring to be presumptuous here?"

Stelle: "Do you dare to defy my Sister Acheron, who bears the identity of an Emanator of Nihility?"

Stelle: "Believe it or not, I'll let you taste what it's like to be Aventurine?"

Aventurine: "Friend, what do you mean by trying what it's like to be me??"

Aventurine: "I'm not the only one who got slashed."

Aventurine: "Can't you use the Duke of Inferno as an example?"

March 7th: "That's right!"

March 7th: "Although Aventurine was slashed, he's not dead yet."

March 7th: "But the Duke of Inferno is different, he's probably already had his funeral."

Hu Tao: "Hahaha, I feel like this scene is inexplicably interesting."

Hu Tao: "Both sides are obviously very confident, both feeling they can make the other pay the price."

Hu Tao: "So they are also throwing harsh words at each other!"

Furina: "Miss Acheron actually said such domineering words in such a flat tone!"

Furina: "She is really so handsome!"

Eula: "Feels like this Dreammaster is very stubborn."

Eula: "Could he also be an Emanator?"

Eula: "Otherwise, how dare he threaten Miss Acheron?"

Xiangling: "This Dreammaster can control more than 100,000 people, maybe he... is also very powerful?"

Welt: "Should not be an Emanator."

Welt: "On the contrary, the Infinite Captain he mentioned is the true Emanator of Harmony."

Paimon: "Then is this Infinite Captain very powerful?"

Paimon: "And Acheron has to bear his wrath?"

Paimon: "As Emanators, he might not necessarily be able to beat Miss Acheron, right?"

Dr. Ratio: "This has to be explained."

Dr. Ratio: "The Emanator of Harmony is a bit different from other Emanators."

Dr. Ratio: "Generally speaking, the Emanator of Harmony is the incarnation of the Aeon of Harmony itself!"

Dr. Ratio: "So, as the main combat side of Harmony,"

Dr. Ratio: "This Infinite Captain should be terrifyingly strong!"

Lumine: "The incarnation of the Aeon of Harmony?!"

Lumine: "Then isn't this a dimensional strike?!"

Aventurine: "Anyway, it's just not easy to provoke."

Aventurine: "Generally, except for those without brains, no one wants to be hunted by such an existence."

Aventurine: "After all, this is the will of Harmony itself, not an ordinary Emanator."

Sangonomiya Kokomi: "So can Miss Acheron defeat that Infinite Captain?"

Acheron: "I don't know either..."

Acheron: "But I shouldn't have a direct conflict with him."

Acheron: "Because that makes no sense."

Miss Sushang: "Then does that mean we won't see this Dreammaster get slashed?"

Miss Sushang: "That's a little disappointing."

The video continues.

[Then you will die.]

[I mean... you all will.]

Facing the Dreammaster's threat,

Acheron said these words calmly again.

[...]

The Dreammaster was silenced directly.

Stelle: "Then you will die, and you all will!"

Stelle: "Look, this is the true powerhouse!"

Stelle: "In a light sentence, it contains full of style!"

March 7th: "I didn't expect Miss Acheron to have such a side!"

March 7th: "But how can she say these things with such a calm face!"

Acheron: "Because I have always been stating facts..."

Hu Tao: "Miss Acheron is really too powerful!"

Silver Wolf: "The Dreammaster says, oh no, this person is not threatened by me."

Silver Wolf: "Even threatened me back!"

Silver Wolf: "It's over, he's already starting to sweat!"

Furina: "It's already so tense, should they start fighting in the next step?"

The video continues.

[...]

[...But that won't happen.]

[Just as you said, I will leave.]

After a long silence between the two sides,

Acheron spoke first.

[A very wise choice.]

The Dreammaster nodded.

[Seems like there's no other option.]

Acheron replied,

and then walked away.

[For you, this is indeed the only path.]

[Please always remember, you and Penacony do not belong to the same world; those born on the other shore cannot find a home on this shore.]

[Leave, and never come back.]

[The light of the Planet of Festivities is too dazzling, attracting too many liars, evildoers, and criminals, but even Harmony... will never welcome a self-annihilator of Nihility.]

[Not to mention this self-annihilator wants to take everything around them into annihilation.]

[Your power is clearly the gift of the Silent and Formless, bottomless, like a tributary flowing from the abyss, bringing death and evil to all living things.]

[Acheron... lives up to the name.]

Looking at Acheron's back,

the Dreammaster warned a few more times.

[Take this as advice from someone on the other shore: you know better than I do that Penacony has already deviated from Harmony.]

[No matter what your purpose is...]

[I can only see one ending.]

Acheron suddenly stopped,

and began to look at the purple bird that had been staying high up.

[Its future is a void, just like all the worlds drowning in His shadow.]

March 7th: "Huh?"

March 7th: "Miss Acheron still chose to leave!"

Stelle: "Otherwise, really slash this world with one slash?"

Stelle: "Then let alone the people inside, I'm afraid even we would be slashed to death directly."

Furina: "Listening to this Dreammaster, people walking on the Path of Nihility don't seem to be welcomed."

Acheron: "This is also normal."

Acheron: "Because as he said, people with the power of Nihility will passively pull everything around them into Nihility."

Hu Tao: "No wonder this Dreammaster is so wary of Miss Acheron..."

Hu Tao: "This sounds really scary..."

Welt: "Miss Acheron talking to that bird at the end..."

Welt: "Could that bird be the true body of the Dreammaster?"

Himeko: "Not necessarily the true body, but it must have a great connection with the Dreammaster."

Robin: "Penacony... has already deviated from Harmony?!"

Robin: "Could it be... that this is the reason for my loss of voice?"

Robin: "But... who is leading all this?!"

Lumine: "Could it be that the entire Family has rebelled?"

Guinaifen: "Not necessarily, right?"

Black Swan: "In short, the Harmony of Penacony is no longer pure, this is an indisputable fact."

Black Swan: "If it continues, perhaps this so-called sweet dream world will become a thing of the past..."

The video continues.

The scene shifts,

to the Golden Hour at the same time.

[...The strange scene just now was caused by equipment failure at Clock Studios Theme Park.]

[The Family has blocked the scene at the first opportunity, and no one was injured.]

[Guests, please rest assured.]

At this moment, the screen on the street

was broadcasting an emergency news report.

[I swear, that was definitely not filming a movie!]

[So many chips fell from the sky, I even caught one, but in the blink of an eye it disappeared without a trace!]
