My Iyashikei Game

Chapter 999: The Sun Rises

"Notification for Player 0000. You've obtained Grade A Butcher's Knife-- Rest in Peace!"

The eyes, dominated by madness, colored with rationality. The mad laughter stopped. Nightmare felt like snow. Mad Laughter looked at the spot where Han Fei had fallen. The person who accompanied him through everything was gone. On this bloodred night, he was alone again. He picked up Rest in Peace. Many years ago, the evil ghosts gave him a knife too. He used that knife to kill all the children.

It shouldn't be like this. I was the one who created despair. Why would you die?

His heart was almost gouged out by Dream but Mad Laughter didn't care. He didn't feel sad but there was an indescribable emotion. His hands that grabbed the knife tightened. The first-generation ghost's blood flowed into Mad Laughter's body. The past owners' hope empowered him and the endless despair became his power. Han Fei gave everything he had to Mad Laughter. Red spread through the dream chains. The two bloodred nights seemed to overlap.

How could the tragedy repeat itself?

Xu Qin yelled loudly. The neighbors threw themselves at the Unmentionables. The people in Rest in Peace cried. Mad Laughter heard everything.

Are they calling for you to stay too?

Mad Laughter stood at the tallest building in the cryptic world. He aimed the blade at Dream. He wanted to do one thing. This thing might not be correct and the result was unclear but he just wanted to do it now. Mad Laughter looked at the despairing world. From the start, he was surrounded by despair. He tried to heal himself but he was still cornered in the end.

The eyes scanned the night. He had recovered from the madness. However, the flame in his eyes burned harder!

Han Fei and Mad Laughter's memory joined. An endless bloodred city appeared behind Mad Laughter. The lonely city built at the deepest part of despair was Mad Laughter's altar world. The city had everything they had experienced together. This city was born in the blood city and bloomed on the twinflower. Mad Laughter put away his smile. He stood at the center of his city. He then used his power.

"Spirit-farer!"

His heart beat like drums. The blood in Mad Laughter burned. He lit up the whole city. Using the first-generation ghost's blood as a connection and burning the city as a sacrifice, Mad Laughter wanted to summon the blood sea to flood the black night!

Demon Dog inside the tunnel barked. The tunnel walls started to break open. The breakage grew bigger until the walls collapsed. The waves gushed out of the tunnel!

Mad Laughter wanted to call me Han Fei's soul even if he had to destroy the real world and the cryptic world. He was a madman. Since everyone believed that, he might as well live up to that reputation.

A child had given up his life to save me, so of course, I could do everything to save him.

Blood ghosts crawled out of the sea. Everyone stopped and looked at this with shock. Their goal was the black box, but Mad Laughter wanted to murder everyone.

The first to discover this was the Demon Dog. Its body expanded. It saved the neighbors and innocent souls. The other Unmentionables in the theme park also had to back away, facing the blood sea. The tunnel was destroyed. The two worlds neared each other. The ground of both worlds collapsed.

Mad Laughter didn't care anymore. He looked at Dream. He used his soul and flesh to fix the dream chains in his body so that Dream wouldn't be able to escape. His body was pierced through by the chains, and behind him was a city waved by blood. The waves slammed into the ground. The silent blood sea flooded the buildings and washed away all traces of Han Fei.

The end of all the blood was Mad Laughter. First-generation ghost swam through the blood sea to enter real life. It had a special connection with the bloodred sea. That connection was transferred to Mad Laughter. The despair floating on the sea and abandoned memory flowed into Mad Laughter. Using the altars as the foundation, Mad Laughter's altar world was built. He inherited all the power. Mad Laughter had everything and lost everything.

"Spirit-farer!"

"Spirit-farer!"

The blood sea rushed at Mad Laughter. Rest in Peace in his hands shone like never before.

Memory fragments were gathering, but it was still not enough. The tunnel had fully collapsed. The blood sea churned. The night was dyed red, and the dream dust was flushed away. The land of the surface world cracked until the edge of the main hub. When 4000000 players were about to fall into the abyss, fate ropes bound around the main hub.

With a sigh, the grey mist around the main hub disappeared. A strong mental power influenced the supercomputer. It turned all the beauty and laughter in the surface world into light. Fate had made a choice. When the blood sea was summoned, No. 2 completed the usurpation. He consumed eleven altars. He shone the light from the surface world into the cryptic world. The cryptic world finally welcomed the first ray of light. Even the large butterfly wings couldn't stop this ray. With the protection of fate, it landed on the blade Mad Laughter was holding. The two worlds were close. The players climbed to the top of the city and saw the abyss close to them. They also saw "Han Fei" who was doing his best to fight for everyone's survival.

"It's Han Fei!"

"He's inside the abyss! He's pierced by chains and covered in blood!"

"Is he stopping the tragedy for us?"

"We need to help him!" A tall male player raised his knife. He moved forward, but the people around him didn't move. He turned around to look at his friends. "Why aren't you moving? Have you forgotten how he saved us in the princess nightmare? He was the one who pushed me away! He was burned because of me! He saved the three of us!"

"But we can't help him. We'll die. Calm down!"

"So you want to wait for death to come?" The tall player looked at the crowd. "We can't just... We need to do something."

The small spark finally burst into light. The light shone not only into the cryptic world but also into people's hearts. More people recognized Han Fei, and more remembered the truth.

The emotions of the surviving players surged into the light. They joined the people in Rest in Peace in taking up the torch. All the beauty that had collected in the surface world flowed into Rest in Peace. Mad Laughter raised the blade.

No. 2 also used his power to move Dream's fate. The butterfly wings flapped uneasily, but it couldn't pull the chains back from Mad Laughter's body. The colorful chains turned red. Dream would have to pay his debt. Standing at the place closest to the sky, Mad Laughter leaped. He slashed at Dream's head!

Dream's rules were broken. The pretty wings were cut through. It was like the sky was cut in half.

The real bloody battle began.

Mad Laughter grabbed Dream's chains and crawled to them. All the hatred and despair exploded. Mad Laughter carried his pain and fought with Dream. He didn't mind the injury and used the pain to numb himself. He wanted to dig up every inch of Dream's body and tear into his soul. The bloody battle lasted for one day and one night. Then the large butterfly fell into the blood sea.

However, Dream didn't die. As they fought, Mad Laughter realized Dream was deeply connected to the first-generation ghost. It might be the first dream the first-generation ghost had. The illusion became an entity that straddled being human and ghost.

To destroy Dream, one had to use the power of the bloodred sea, but Dream would not stay in there idly. Therefore, Mad Laughter did something crazy. He bound the chains around Dream, and then he also fell into the blood sea.

Mad Laughter placed his dream on the scale in his eyes. He would sacrifice his dream and himself to the blood sea to complete one last thing.

"Resurrection!"

The blood sea consumed the two Unmentionables. During the sacrificial process, the fight did not stop. The blood sea, which had been silent for years, churned wildly. All the areas near the skyscraper were flooded, and a new blood city appeared in the dark.

This blood city was like Mad Laughter's memory world but was filled with the traces of another person.

The light came on the third floor of Happiness Neighborhood. The sound of a bowl breaking came from the empty room. The dim light flickered. The smell of meat floated out. The children stopped crying, and the crayon drawing on the wall faded away.

"I'm not eating something from the coffin!"

"Your meat dish is so delicious. Thanks for treating me."

"You lost the hide-and-seek. All I need is for you to stop crying."

"I'll bring the person who harmed you into this world."

The voices echoed in the red buildings. Even though they were hiding in the night, they were happy.

Eight figures fitted on the old sofa and looked at the static on TV. The prettiest neighbor prepared the most delicious food. The elder prepared porridge as she waited for her children to come home.

"The building manager is back! He's carrying a coffin!"

"I've taken down the convenience store at the corner of the street. In the future, I'll be the headmaster. After I leave the game, I'll read up on education."

Small traces landed around the city. It was like a small river. It seeped into every corner of the altar world and shone on the memory of the past.

"I know the world is not white and black. But I know what is right and wrong. Only by correcting the wrong thing that good things will be recognized."

"The people trapped in cages lost their kindness and became beasts. But if one was given a chance, who would want to be an animal?"

"Humans will not glow, but we have a torch inherited from our ancestors. This torch is called life. We put our experience and memory into it, and when we raise it up high, we can walk in the dark."

"Fate has given me the worst script, but it's okay because I was born to be the best actor!"

Mad Laughter's altars were lit up. The weak light slowly gathered. The voice deep inside the sea called. The soul pieces fluttered like petals.

It was the world's most beautiful flower. It wilted when the night was the darkest. It bloomed when the sun first rose.

Soon, when the blood sea calmed down, the bloodred city chased away the black mist of the cryptic world and appeared at the places Han Fei had once been. The light from the surface world shone on the blood city. To every survivor's shock, there seemed to be other blood cities in the endless cryptic world. The dark sky was dyed red. They seemed to sense Mad Laughter's presence and were using their own methods to summon him.

The tunnel had collapsed. The blood sea flowed into the cryptic world. One-third of the surface world was destroyed, but at least the two worlds had stopped overlapping. Now a part of the surface world had cut into the cryptic world.

As for the Unmentionables that came with Dream, they had already escaped when Dream's body was cut. The rest couldn't even run even if they wanted to. The bloody battle ended. No. 2 entered the cryptic world at the last minute. He walked into Mad Laughter's blood city. He studied the 'petals' silently.

"The fate of the twinflower..."

No. 2 wanted to get closer, but Xu Qin appeared inside the blood city. She became the source of curses and had lost her mind. The flower that represented promise was torn apart. The only hope she had was gone. She attacked everything relentlessly. She would only calm down when she was within the petal area. "You can stay here."

The blood city suppressed the blood sea. It replaced the tunnel, or rather, it became the new tunnel. The players from the surface world could enter the cryptic world from the blood city at any time. Several Unmentionables worked together to stop the blood sea from spreading. They waited for a long time, but Mad Laughter and Dream didn't show up.

"Every memory about the bloodred orphanage is hidden in your deepest mind. The first-generation ghost was born at the deepest part of the blood sea. Is it a coincidence, or is it fated?" The petals slowly gathered in the light. No. 2 seemed to know Mad Laughter's choice.

He looked up at the 3000000 players still trapped in the game and silently walked to the skyscraper. "Salvation and destruction exist at the same time. The new era has arrived."

There was no kindess in No. 2's eyes. There was no anger either. He came to the rooftop calmly. The Unmentionables followed behind him. The ghosts gathered in the black rain zone.

"The 3000000 players were not enough for the negotiation. We need them to place all the players' lives on the table so they won't betray us again." No. 2 placed Beast's flesh into the altar and touched Mad Laughter's figurine, and opened the tunnel to real life.

The blood bridge cut through the night. It connected the real world and the cryptic world again.

"When the negotiation is over, I'll replace the supercomputer and stay there. I'll be the bad guy." No. 2 walked on the bridge, and the other Unmentionables followed him. The blood spread. That night, the smell of blood lingered in the night sky of Xin Lu.

...

"Come quick!"

"Han Fei's heart rate is irregular! His breathing is slowing down!"

"Where's the doctor?"

The voices called. A pale man lay inside the ambulance. He had experienced many things. He was no longer young. His organs were dying. The hospital was loud. As Han Fei was sent to ER, an elder was sent out. Li Xue's teacher was dead. He crossed paths with Han Fei at the hospital. The ER door closed. Several officers guarded the door. A female officer looked over.

It was not the time to be sad. Li Xue reminded herself many times. She grew up a lot in that one night. Dream's Disciples were well-hidden. They looked no different from a normal citizen. They were out hunting her teacher's students. She had taken much bad news that night. However, she was not overwhelmed by sadness. Fate had hinted at many things already. Li Xue's gaze became similar to the female leader of the Tragedy Investigation Center in the altar world. She would carry on her teacher's legacy.

Several hours later, the sun rose like normal. Most people started their normal day. They had no idea the city had changed overnight.

Deep Space Tech and the police beat the hackers back before dawn. All of Dream's disciples were arrested as well.

No one really knew what had happened that night. When people were focused on the trapped players, Immortal Pharma and Deep Space Tech initiated the reconstruction programming. The behind-the-scene admins were swapped silently too.

The wheels of history turned. The chains of the previous era were crushed violently. To welcome the new era, new faces appeared.

With compromises and negotiations, the gamblers at the table silently welcomed the new era.

That afternoon, part of the trapped players were sent out. The danger was over, and while the people cheered, Han Fei's name was brought up again. They saw 'Han Fei' and the evil ghost fall into the blood sea together.

The supercriminal was actually a hero. Then, people realized Han Fei had not lied even once. People started to praise Han Fei again, but he couldn't hear them anymore. The doctors tried their best. They used Immortal Pharma's latest technology, but they could barely keep Han Fei's body working. His consciousness was gone. All the tests proved that his brain was dead.

Many people wanted to know if Han Fei would wake up.

When night returned, Han Fei was sent to the lab on the lowest floor at Immortal Pharma. Along the way, many people Han Fei aided came. There were families of the victims, and there were players who had left the game and families of the nightmare owners. Han Fei helped many people and healed many wounded souls.

"Big brother!" When the police cruiser reached a junction, a middle-aged man in a zoo uniform rushed out. He had two tickets to the zoo. The man was mentally special. He shouted at the car that carried Han Fei. He ignored the police and tried to get to Han Fei.

"Brother, I'm Wang Pingan! There's an elephant performance this Saturday at the zoo! You haven't seen it! Let me go!"

The other zoo workers tried to hold Wang Pingan back. The man shouted like a kid.

"My brother is a very good person. I know that! You can't take him away! He's all I have left! Please don't take him away!"

The car slowly moved away. Han Fei changed many people's fates. They had not forgotten him.
