[Title: So what happened to the guy who joined the military after making the cancellation mark?]
What kind of karma did the Wakamou Leader ask for, causing a guy to receive military orders and cancel concert tickets?
Is it even possible to be conscripted like that???
– There’s been a post unearthed in the café. I saw a post yesterday saying he couldn’t attend the concert because he enlisted.
– He’s the guy who got front row tickets and said it’d kill him. LOL
– LOL, I heard he was thinking of transferring the tickets to the Leader?
– What if that’s not true? If history was altered by a wish? If he was already discharged?
– Wakkaaaaaaa LOL
– Anyway, it’s not our problem LOL
– Isn’t it traditional culture to offer human sacrifices to idols?

[Title: Breaking news about the enlistee, damn]
The Leader heard about it and sent him some merch.
Checked where he enlisted and it’s the Climber Association, damn LOL
What kind of place is that? It’s an extremely cushy position, just like a vacation.
What would they have a non-Climber do? All they do is computer work.
Plus, it’s right by Incheon, so it’s great for going out.
But with the Wakamou Leader backing him? This kid’s life turned around.
He even posted a picture with the Leader hugging him and saying thanks.
– Yeah, I’m going to crack his skull.
– This jerk left a review about the Leader’s chest.
– Let’s kill him!! Kill him!! Kill him!!!
– I can be a sacrificial lamb too!!!!
– Shit LOL His ticket price is a 100th-floor reward LOL What a “valuable” life he has.
– Anyway, congrats on becoming famous, watch out in the night LOL
– The great will of the world was unfair to you…

[Title: Kyoto Tower is damn pathetic]
You cannot win!! It’s a Legendary Class non-combatant!!
From the beginning, it’s impossible to break through!!
Even if you could, the chance is negligible! You are performing a miracle right now!
So, damn, are you saying you teamed up with a 90th-floor boss against a non-combat position with “200 times difficulty”?
Is it such an issue to die and come back to life?
The Leader already admitted he’s unable to cross the Sanzu River without swimming, remember?
-‘Winning through death’ and ‘winning even if you die’, these two are completely different.
-The information my eyes see says you are Wakamou! But my soul denies it! Answer me now!! Who are you!!
-Wakamou: Disgusting. How did you know?
– LOL
– LOL does a mini Wakamou pop up when you open its head???
-C’mon! Is resurrecting the dead such a big deal? Isn’t revival a specialty in Japanese mythology?
-The dead should not exist in this world…..but gods are an exception.
-Anyway, you’ve come back, right?
-Showing the worst thing you can do at a funeral, Leader LOL
-I was so scared thinking it was true, damn ㅠㅠ
-Our Leader made sure of our stocks.

[Title: Honestly, I’m a bit touched]
Whether Wakamou is truly Haku Myeon Geum Mo or not is unimportant.
Whether or not they’re a legendary lesbians from ancient times.
Our Leader just loves VTubers…
Even beyond the screen, the Fragment of Babel’s presence is overwhelming enough to take your breath away.
Even so, they hypnotize the fans to make a wish for what they desire most, and you can’t help but wish for it LOL
I was really touched hearing what the Leader said.
Rather than wishing for world peace, ending hunger, or conquering diseases… these are things humans must achieve themselves.
Even if betrayed by humans and disappearing, a true idol loves and believes in humans….
– It’s funny, he would wish for VTubers’ health even if granting all wishes.
-The wish made while hypnotized and the one after waking up were the same, made me laugh LOL
-The Leader is brutally honest…..
-In a sense, I was really impressed.
-‘Even if granting all wishes, what’s more important is living in the present’ is a takeaway….
-I believe in humans, they can do it….
-The ones creating history are not the old!!
-An idol from the past cannot change the present!

[Title: It’s the first time I’ve seen such a fiery kiss]
Seriously, it’s like a damn movie just unfolded.
“[Living in such a suffocating place. No blue forest, no river to see…. how do life forms exist without nature. Oh Fox Deity, is this where the faith of those who pursue idols like you comes from?]”
“Just throwing philosophical questions in the middle of a fight… Japan’s the country of four seasons… yeah, that’s what we talk about… Seaweed is digestible only by Japanese, amazing~ Maple, they say, exists only in Japan and Finland? Stop the nonsense, let’s fight. Our believers can only live in urban areas.”
While talking down during fights, Kyoto Fox Deity looks around the bleak cityscape, feeling bittersweet about idols disappearing due to such development.
With people’s faith disappearing and vanishing, and worships towards gods lost, ending up living in a tower becomes their fate. Now, asking the remaining Wakamou if he believes in the faith given by those who abandoned idols, Wakamou Leader replies with a smirk and takes it as a joke.
But we know… the Leader is someone who accepts that once humans betray and seal him suddenly… saw it when idols were abandoned in a game. He’s already prepared mentally for it.
This fight is about the Fox Deity being mad at Wakamou for trusting humans even after being sealed by them…. fighting passionately over Wakamou’s pathetic belief in humans who betrayed and fled, only to return now.
“[Do you not see? The Tower exists to stop those defiling our living grounds, Fox Deity!!]”
“Be honest, you’re just angry because I took your shrine followers!!!”
“[You damn hag!!]”
It’s clear there seems a deep bond with the Inari Shrine.
Honestly, I felt betrayal seeing the Leader establishing an Inari Shrine in Kyoto, not Korea….But if it were the only trace of a beloved partner in a shared, bygone era, with the sole idol left in the era where all others vanished, building a shrine by the grave of a friend?
It’s not betrayal at all….The Leader didn’t mention it, but imagine how heavy-hearted and sorrowful they must have felt….Silently crying inside despite not speaking….
Not quite audible, but the Fox Deity seems agitated with sorcery, to which the Leader counters with sorcery.
Not effective initially, so they’re intensely battling close-ranged, mirroring each other’s fighting styles as if reading Wakamou Leader’s mind.
From deploying techniques to applying joint locks, they resemble each other perfectly in every aspect… As they brutally brawl, about to die, the Fox Deity embraces him tightly and kisses him. Though not honest before death, the conveyed intense emotion…..
Seeing Wakamou Leader so attached, hugging all stubbornly, moved me a bit to tears.
We didn’t hear it, but what words did the Fox Deity say?
Don’t be a fool and get betrayed again? Or is it that he was glad to have met again?
Is it Wakamou x Fox Deity or Fox Deity x Wakamou, does it even matter…?
-We are witnessing the tears of eras.
-Even with the ability to make all wishes come true, the Leader prays modestly as it’s humans who own the world.
-To climb the Tower and fight someone he has personal ties with….
-Many thought the Leader rushed for the avatars’ tickets knowing who’d appear, doing it purposefully.
-For real…. Trying to make the best of a heartbreaking situation of putting down one’s lover…..
-Living entities have only to live….
-Come to think of it, he could’ve wished for idol revival or to make idols reappear.
-Then the world would spiral into chaos again, wouldn’t it?
-The Kyoto Fox Deity wasn’t quite fond of current cities and civilizations.
-Besides, they don’t quite like humans….
-Why would they like those who betray and seal their partner?
-The feeling of the Fox Deity being frustrated seeing Wakamou, filled with sorrow, resorting to extreme yandere was understandable.
The world turned chaotic.
With the conquest of the Kyoto 100-Floor Tower, the tower rising high above Kyoto disappeared, revealing a Wakamou 2nd Floor identical to Wakamou 1st Floor!
Of course, being just a 10-floor tower made it remarkably small… but the fact that fragments of “Inari Shrine” were left inside caused a significant stir.
Though Wakamou didn’t particularly ask, Architect Jackson diligently restored the Inari Shrine to its original state as closely as possible.
And Artist Adelheid placed the sculptures of 『Kyoto Fox Deity』 prominently in the shrine.
Unlike Korea’s floor, Wakamou allowed anyone residing in Kyoto with King of Authority’s permission to enter freely.
Upon hearing this, Korean politicians and businessmen expressed dissatisfaction and bias towards Wakamou, but─ viewers aware of the bond between Wakamou and Fox Deity lambasted them, urging them not to meddle without knowledge.
Overwhelmed by public backlash, the individuals belatedly grasped the situation and withdrew their complaints.
The Japanese government attempted to thwart an excessive power shift towards King of Authority, but due to Wakamou’s terrifying prowess and, coupled with conversations and relations with Fox Deity, Japanese citizens sided more with Wakamou, leaving the government incapable of action.
An endless procession of mourning continued at the newly rebuilt Wakamou 2nd Floor’s Inari Shrine, attracting numerous tourists and fans as a sacred site.
Additionally, the once-drying yuri community experienced a resurgence as fresh materials fell like meteorites, resulting in a flood and immense revival.
There were competitions over creating heart-wrenching masterpieces of Wakamou and Fox Deity’s past in fan creations. Several even got published as books. Japan even announced plans to make it into a film, but─ Wakamou objected a bit, leading to a backlash.
Citizens, enraged over the commercialization of cherished memories, deemed it disrespectful to the deity and nearly dragged individuals out for mob violence.
Overwhelmed by successive upheavals their words caused, Wakamou sighed, now repressing comments.
Even attempting to clarify misunderstandings was fruitless, lacking video evidence, what was expressed continually faced misinterpretations, deemed as encouragement despite underlying sadness.
Even the President of the Korean Association, assuming he’d matured emotionally with fewer tears, was moved by the tragedy of Wakamou and the lover’s story, left wiping away tears with a handkerchief, prompting Wakamou to simply resign.
Despite Wakamou’s lack of prompting, Jackson secretly rebuilt the shrine, while Adelheid month placed statues of Wakamou and the Fox Deity side by side…
Meanwhile, Inari Shrine, whose popularity had dwindled due to Wakamou Shrine, sent gratitude as tourism grew.
Realizing they discovered the face of the deity they worship, they hung up photographs, albeit it resembled a memorial image, instilling an eerie feeling.
Reminiscent of saying “For a mere concert ticket, you attempted to kill me… I’ll curse you forever…”
“Were the wishes…a waste?”
“Huh? Not really?”
Wanda Haye, thinking he could buy tickets legally, pondered that Wakamou, taking such an excuse and quarreling with their lover, was struggling to act normal… knowing everything─ looked at Wakamou with a sympathetic expression.
Enduring prejudices, misunderstandings, and misconceptions face alone to the point of knowing what others think just by looking at their expressions, Wakamou chose not to bother correcting and left it as is.
Future historians may become frustrated with rage, but what concern is it to Wakamou?
Even historians were losing sanity from writing yuri novels, marking an end times.
By the way, about wishes….
In hindsight, couldn’t they have wished for a restructuring of the Legendary Class?
Like gaining a sub-class… or easing job penalties, or changing to a higher class, such considerations.
But it was something in the past. Wakamou held neither attachment nor regret.
More so than that, Wakamou pondered the true significance of the 【Fragment of Babel】 he acquired.
Even colleges turned professors like Sebastian, along with Jackson and Adelheid, world-famous in scrutinizing materials, responded uncertainly regarding its nature.
Sebastian expressed a desire to install a laboratory for proper research, but without formal ownership, fear of theft made deliberation inevitable.
Has Man-eater, who reportedly tackled America’s 100-Floor Tower, like Wakamou, made a wish and obtained this fragment as well?
Handling the fragment, feeling nothing extraordinary, Wakamou pondered under the passing light.
Lijeri glancing at Wakamou.
Clearing the 100th floor of the Kyoto Tower didn’t change the world much as he had imagined, and the VTubers of Wakamou Corporation were carrying on with their usual routine.
“Liu Ying, reading books like that won’t make you a good adult, you know?”
“Shut up.”
Liu Ying, quietly reading with a stack of classic comic books like [Maison Ikkoku] and [How to Make a Woman Look Back] piled in a corner.
Sadako shook her head, thinking Liu Ying was hitting puberty.
Always cherishing those who are gone, unaware of the unbeatable, sneaky opponent they face, Sadako felt sorry.
“Sob… Why does no one acknowledge my achievements…?”
Despite numerous appearances and significant contributions, Olga was overshadowed once again by Wakamou and the Fox Deity, crying softly.
Even though she fought and blew her breath at the Fox Deity… unfortunately, Adelheid erected a statue in front of the shrine, further burying her.
Olga lay on her side, venting her sorrow.
“By the way, is Mei okay?”
“As you can see, she’s fine.”
Mei Xiao Long Bao, body cracking all over, barely managed to reply.
In the case of Jiang Yeoul, who vanished alongside Wakamou, his clone was barely functional, disappearing shortly after being brought out.
Over time, things were improving, and the [Idol’s Body] saw decreased overloading as they climbed the tower─ proving how intense the battle was.
Wakamou hadn’t expected that conquering and climbing the tower would not fully recover them all.
But in hindsight, reviving from death and resurrecting a doomed body was reasonable enough.
Even the tower had limits to what it could heal.
Did they originally account for the tower dying and resurrecting? Somewhere out there, there might be a resurrection-type skill causing someone to be revived.
But there certainly wasn’t a crazy guy reviving from death in such a brute-force way.
‘By the way, there’s no reward…?’
Clearing up to the 100 floors combined with the 90 floors gave no [skill] enhancement or reward for conquering the tower.
While Wakamou had wished upon a star, none of the other climbers at the scene received any reward.
Perhaps it’s still being settled?
If the reward for Wakamou’s achievements was indeed [Wishes], it made sense.
Could it be that the Kyoto Tower went bankrupt due to giving too many rewards?
In reality, only the [Wakamou 2F], established by Wakamou, existed in Kyoto, and no tower emerged.
‘Well, does it even matter?’
Holding a first-row concert ticket like a treasure, Wakamou wished for the concert not to be canceled, nonchalantly booked a ticket to Japan.
※※※
“Huff… Huff….”
The Swordsman from Japan headed towards the festival concert hall, intent on avenging his defeat to Wakamou.
As the notorious killer appeared, police and climbers surfaced—but they all were easily dodged as he boarded the train.
Maybe he’s senile with old age? Nah, it can’t be.
No matter how many times he tried reaching the station repeatedly, he ended up at the wrong place as if bewitched.
Swearing to go on foot, he started walking─only to be ensnared in thick fog suddenly surrounding him.
“…..”
Thus, the Swordsman found himself trapped in the fog, unable to escape.
Venturing into nearby towns, he was greeted by a ghost town devoid of life.
The structures had decayed as if centuries had passed. Had he been flung into the future?
Desperately trying to escape this world, the Swordsman continued moving endlessly.
“Ugh…. Ughhhh…..”
The Swordsman was found unconscious in a police station cell, trapped in a never-ending nightmare, writhing in pain.
──Wakamou made a wish, and the 【Fragment of Babel】had an obligation to fulfill it.
The festival concert had to happen. Thus, the Fragment of Babel wielded its power, drawing from Wakamou’s memories.
Healing and reviving both the injuries of attending VTubers and their mental fatigue were miraculously performed. Even vanished cartilage grew back miraculously.
A mentally disturbed individual, intending to attack gathering crowds with indiscriminate slashing was unluckily hit by a car en route.
A false threat promising a bombing was never written, with the internet suddenly cutting off.
Attempts to write on a smartphone ended with the device exploding, and an scheming mind tripped, cracking their skull, resulting in death.
─In total, 43 individuals scheming to ruin the festival or commit unrelated crimes ended up dead.
The Fragment of Babel judged their worth, deeming them “without value.”
Mere trolls writing posts in communities only experienced their devices malfunctioning.
Those whose computers exploded must be sourly disappointed.
Wakamou, smiling blissfully as she stood in line to enter the concert, beamed with unbridled joy.
Looking foolish with a grin stretching ear to ear, she waited, watching streams on her phone.
“Hey, Märchen Empress. Why did you turn into a kiosk…? They demand you offer cheese!!”
Wakamou continued to work on uploading 984 clips from the 3-day Virtual Live broadcast of her favorite VTuber.
Passing by Wakamou, the Fragment of Babel utilized its power extensively.
“Have I been here the whole time…? There’s no way!! I surely landed at the Japanese airport!!”
“As you can see, all agents are in such a state. Overwhelmed by mental attacks, they’ve gone insane.”
“And the others?”
“Guardians”, planning assassination, were left groaning over their failed plan, unable even to initiate it, having intended to use concert-goers as hostages to corner Wakamou.
Wakamou was akin to Superman. Loath to kill, using loved VTubers and crowds as leverage to pressurize her—to drive her into a corner for the sake of humanity and assassinate her—the mission’s success rate was 98%.
Fortune-telling climbers among Wizards in the United States and [Oracle] awakened as a subclass were present, making it easier for Guardians to comprehend future pathways and impeccably execute plans.
That should have been the case.
Trained assassin agents disguised amongst citizens vanished.
As if they never existed, no records were found.
Observed living differing lives as if history itself had changed entirely.
Their existence as “climbers” was erased.
Forcibly attempting to read Wakamou’s future to trap fate resulted in climbers’ eyes disappearing neatly, leaving them blind.
Agents intending to follow Wakamou into Japan were found wandering in a deranged state.
Ultimately, when plans were forcefully enacted, Guardian-affiliated officers were found dead from heart attacks, rendering the operation a failure before it started.
An unseen menace loomed over, pressuring the Guardians.
All attempts to prevent watching the “Festival Concert” were preemptively crushed before any spark ignited.
It was a grand feat.
To achieve such a monumental task.
The unparalleled reward granted allowed Wakamou’s wish to inevitably reach fruition.
“What’s the status of our 【Fragment of Babel】research?”
“It’s progressing, but still uncertain. [Man-eater]’s wish remains unconfirmed.”
“They must have been coerced into wishing.”
A deep sigh escaped from the Guardian lieutenant overseeing Man-eater held like a test subject, ordering discontinuation of the operation.
While aware of Wakamou’s wish made to the Fragment of Babel—the chilling extent of that unseen power was underestimated.
Even the power invested within the Fragment of Babel—a small wish using the rewards Wakamou accumulated must seem absurd.
Thoroughly! Ensuring no variables: perfectly!
With clear weather, no accidents occurring, nor equipment failures during the concert.
Accidents like falling while dancing or forgetting lyrics while singing seemed an impossibility.
Wakamou’s destiny—crying over buying merch—transmuted for her to buy it all.
Exchanging goods with acquaintances encountered after long, she radiated happiness.
The VTuber fans were startled, discovering a renowned figure was secretly the Fox Deity.
Finally, attaining what he earnestly desired.
After becoming a climber for a year.
Driven by seeing the VTuber concert alive, he ascended the tower, striving against all odds to enjoy the festival concert he longed for.
Clutching glowsticks, his entire being festooned with goods, cheering with utmost fervor.
No ordinary celebrity, regularly catching fans on broadcast screens, elicited roars of laughter.
Having requested in advance, acquaintances avoided deliberate recognition of Wakamou.
Nonetheless, winking while locking gazes, Wakamou found her knees buckling, collapsing to the ground.
“Huff, on the River Styx, the Fox Deity waved at me…!”
Pulling by her collar, asking why she didn’t just come on over.
Indulging in the concert more genuinely than anyone worldwide, Wakamou reveled in blissful satisfaction.
Once the concert ended, a semi-transparent window appeared before every climber who conquered the tower.
[Rewards are granted to climbers who conquered Kyoto Tower!]
Considering the vast number of individuals and rewards to distribute, it seemed time-consuming.
[Kyoto Tower glares at Wakamou!! It does not intend to hand over rewards!!]
To Wakamou appeared a notification imbued with personal animosity.
Moreover, 【Fragment of Babel】—even a small wish with Wakamou’s accumulated rewards failed to cover the costs.
SDVIMVFoanVzY1YwSVhjamMzUkt1Uk1oK0sya3NRU1YxcUQyKzVnbkpjMUE4TTZnSk5VUHF2ZEJvQk8rZ1dscg
The【Fragment of Babel】, dimly gleaming, hazily inquired ‘About the wish?’
Coinciding with conquering the 100 floors came bonus notice of an additional revision.
“….May I resurrect from a funeral then?”
Facing already bleak circumstances, Wakamou played a drowning person’s trick.
Our manager Wanda Haye cried out for slaves, so she wailed to be needed….
And then, finally requesting a genuine wish, the Fragment of Babel wept.
Damn you, why didn’t you wish for that from the start…. and murmured; Wakamou pressed her ears tightly shut.
The tower had indeed withstood hardships.
Primarily because of Wakamou Inarizushi.
Meanwhile, the Korean Tower blew its entire fortune on a lavish spree.
