Chapter 395

Up to now.

Every frame, every second, every detail of the last Sky Curtain had been studied over and over again by everyone from official national agencies down to the common people.

Various speculations were given, and various speculations were falsified.

Now, only three points can be confirmed.

First, the Sky Curtain shows the story of a real world.

Secondly, what the Sky Curtain shows is the present progressive tense, happening synchronously, being born in that distant end.

Finally, the perspective focused on by the Sky Curtain can basically be determined to play a vital role in the resolution of the final crisis.

In other words, they are the protagonist, the main character.

Or the child of destiny, the node of causality.

Therefore, when she appeared in the lens at the beginning, and even appeared beside *that* person, she knew that all her information from childhood to adulthood would be checked thoroughly within seven seconds.

Are you kidding?

What is a Sky Curtain protagonist?

Not to mention *that* person, the true protagonist Kaguya Shinomiya, who even scared foreign visitors into wanting to crawl back into their mother's womb.

Just *that* Yukino Yukinoshita—she recently had a record of killing a Fourth Rank chaotic-alignment big shot.

And it's only been half a year.

Are you kidding me?

A Fourth Rank—in which world is that not an owl who has killed his way out after hundreds of years of wind, snow, and thorns?

In any world, they are existences standing at the pinnacle of the pyramid.

And yet?

Unlimited Blade Works to the face, backhand projection of "Excalibur Image," a wave of light torrent that pierced through the atmosphere.

Relying on being Fourth Rank, the powerhouses who were used to being big shots didn't even have slag left.

Never mind the brothers from other worlds; even Earthlings didn't dare to believe it.

No.

Are you sure this isn't summoning a Heroic Spirit?

This is a Noble Phantasm, and it's the youth version of the Savior Holy Sword that is enough to shoot down 【Beasts】.

And you can project this?

Even the foreign people understand how outrageous this is by now.

In short, Mai Yingdao believes that the world's gaze must have been focused on her before.

Of course, now that she, the fake protagonist, has died on the Sky Curtain, the importance of her in reality has dropped by more than one grade.

"Well, it counts as a wave of popularity."

Mai Yingdao stretched, her beautiful curves shocking.

And what TV station can increase exposure more than the Sky Curtain?

As magecraft gradually becomes popular, the acting industry is not easy to do.

Relying on magecraft to adjust one's appearance—even if it's not as natural as her exquisite, naturally beautiful features—it's not much different.

In short, a pretty face is not rare at all.

It has no competitiveness anymore.

The most important point to get a job now is magecraft.

Even in the entertainment industry, it's the same.

The tide of the times is irresistible; countless people had their little boats of picking up money overturned.

Mai Yingdao heard that several people jumped off buildings, some of whom were originally popular stars who were ignored overnight after being confirmed to have no talent for magecraft.

Unable to accept the psychological gap, they jumped down.

Of course, this situation belongs to a minority; most people have some skills even if they don't have talent for magecraft.

And Mai Yingdao, although she started late, had extremely high talent for magecraft, plus diligent study and practice, and successfully jumped from the youth drama circle to mainstream dramas in reality.

Hmm.

For example: *Tokyo Strange Tales*, *Shibuya Magecraft Strange Records*, and the current *The Case Files of Lord El-Melloi II*... etc.

Very realistic, clearly.

However, her status is just that—an actress.

If she hadn't become an official mage and had the protection of the Mage Association, who knows what kind of messy things would have stuck to her.

Suddenly.

A knocking sound came.

"Yingdao-san, are you there? Are you rested?"

A gentle voice sounded behind the door, so gentle it made people's scalps numb.

"Assistant Director Yamanaka, is something the matter?"

Mai Yingdao's face was strange.

No.

Uncle Yamanaka, why the change from arrogance to humility?

I remember you were looking down your nose at everyone before because of your D-Class Mage status, right?

Wait.

Mai Yingdao turned her head to look at the Sky Curtain outside the window—the man walking leisurely in the fire that incinerated everything.

Yes.

Even if it's just a little bit of a connection with *that* person, even a little bit.

In reality, it's enough to make anyone not dare to look down on her, and to be wary of her.

From then on, no messy things would come to her, and they wouldn't even appear in her field of vision.

Let alone the existence of a clear romantic relationship on the Sky Curtain?

"Then, Mai-san, can you prepare for scene B2564? You have magic combat scenes."

Yamanaka spoke softly, his tone respectful.

"Fine, I'll be there right away."

Mai Yingdao rubbed her head and looked at the young man on the Sky Curtain again.

Her thoughts were even more complicated.

I don't know why, even though she wasn't familiar with him, seeing the other self clearly fall in love with Luo-kun, she felt it was a matter of course.

As if it had happened many times, leading to the fact that she couldn't realize the weight of Luo Shu's existence in reality.

"Is there really a past life?"

……..

"Is there really a past life?"

Tokyo.

In a high-end condominium.

A girl with jet-black hair cascading down and a plump figure muttered this, then revealed a blackened smile, her slender fingers tapping on the keyboard.

……..

Sky Curtain.

【There is no concept of time in death.】

【I don't know how long it had been.】

【When she could barely maintain her own existence.】

【"Little Shu, Mai... Mai-chan... can she still be saved?"】

【A choked, crying voice.】

【Is it Chika?】

【"Sorry, although I am the Chief Medical Officer of Chaldea, I haven't mastered the authority of death. These tits are already charred; how can I save them?"】

【Mai Yingdao, whose self was almost dissipating, was instantly energized and actually recovered some ability to think.】

【Luo-kun————!!!】

【Sure enough, I can't die yet. If I die now, this ugly look will be fixed in Luo-kun's mind.】 ===== CHAPTER 396 =====

【Sure enough, I still can't die yet. If I die now, this ugly appearance will be frozen in Luo Shu's mind.】
