“Send!”
Upon realizing this terrifying truth, Eve Nightburn was instantly engulfed by a sense of despair.
“Is this another calamity?”
Eve quickly arrived at a somewhat reasonable conclusion.
“But… what’s the use of this!”
Knowing that she was in danger was utterly meaningless!
The real question was how to avoid the danger!
But it was clear that Eve seemed to have no way to escape at this moment.
Eve looked at the world around her, which felt like a prison.
She was trapped within it, unable to break free.
Looking at this world, it was her familiar city, seemingly vast yet feeling so confined.
Eve gazed at the motionless sun and eventually chose to give up.
“Forget it, since I can’t think of a good solution anyway, I might as well go grab some food and drinks.”
Eve currently felt that the world didn’t seem too dangerous. Before finding a way out, it was more practical to find some food to replenish her energy.
Eve arrived at a corner store, casually took a bottle of soda from the fridge, opened it, and gulped it down.
“Ah~ refreshing!”
Eve savored the refreshing sensation brought by the carbon dioxide, trying to dispel the fear in her heart.
In this world, there’s nothing a bottle of soda can’t solve.
If there is, then have another one!
In the screening room.
Sitting in the back row, Bianca Duan watched the little loli on the screen. She didn’t exhibit the uncontrollable nature of a typical calamity, nor the danger of a high-level one.
What she displayed was only the confusion of someone ignorant.
“Shanna…” Bianca whispered to Shanna Tong beside her, “Is that loli really a calamity?”
“At least those who saw her spectrum think so.”
Shanna stared intently at the girl on the screen: “You might deny many things, but the spectrum is unique.”
“Although the extreme heat of the Worldburn Flame theoretically makes it impossible to see a spectrum, the flame’s absurd stability allows light to emanate from around it. It’s just that neither you nor I have the ability to see it.”
Bianca truly didn’t understand this. She shook Shanna vigorously, pleading for a clearer answer.
“I mean, her behavior doesn’t resemble the calamities we usually encounter! Shanna!”
Shanna remained silent for a long time before coldly replying, “But how much do we really know about calamities?”
Eve walked through the deserted world, enjoying all the pleasures brought by the absence of rules.
At this moment, Eve was dressed in a cosplay outfit, portraying Alice from Golden Mosaic.
To cosplay this character, Eve had even found a hot spring to wash out her hair dye, revealing the light yellow color hidden beneath.
Meanwhile, Eve was eating an ice cream she had just gotten from a milk tea shop, living a life of pure comfort.
Not spending a single penny, she was thoroughly enjoying the good life.
It must be said that Eve always had a magical attribute—no matter what she did, she was always laughing happily inside.
Like now, even though she knew she was as good as dead, Eve was still finding ways to adapt to this new environment and seek new joys.
Is this what they mean by “the strong never complain about their environment”? Probably not, right?
However, while enjoying her new life, Eve still made a small complaint: “Why haven’t the Magical Girls come to handle this yet? It’s been so long!”
Eve felt that a lot of time had passed. Although the sun in the sky hadn’t changed, her feelings were undeniably real.
She had been trapped by the calamity for so long; theoretically, the Magical Girls should have resolved it by now.
“Could it be that this calamity is too complex to solve quickly?”
Eve pondered all possibilities, except for the possibility that the Magical Girls had caught her.
After all, so many days had passed; it couldn’t be that they suddenly discovered her today, could it?
Eve was reluctant to believe this possibility, not because of the odds, but because she didn’t want to accept this fact.
“Forget it, never mind!”
Since she was living freely now, why bother with all that?
“I’m going to enjoy life!”
With that, Eve raised her hands above her head, let out a cheer, and ran towards the distant park.
A day had passed, and most of the Magical Girls in the screening room had already left.
Only a few extremely leisurely people and those who had returned after eating remained.
No one’s life is about observing another’s life; that would be too boring.
After all, only one or two people needed to stay here to ensure that the person in the video didn’t encounter any major accidents.
Because no one knew how the Worldburn Flame had reappeared in this world.
The Republic wanted to know why the flames, long sealed in another dimension, had reappeared in this world.
This was a command from headquarters that had to be fulfilled, and no one could defy it.
After an unknown amount of time, Eve gradually adapted to her new life.
Occasionally, when she had nothing to do, Eve would gaze at the ever-still sun in the sky.
Grumble~
As her stomach growled, Eve realized it was time to eat.
“Time to eat!”
Eve then found a corner store and grabbed a self-heating meal from the shelf.
She then found a table outside an AutoDine Restaurant by the roadside.
Eve pulled out a chair and sat down.
She placed the self-heating meal on the table, opened it, and began heating her food.
Since Eve didn’t know whether it was morning, noon, afternoon, or evening, she didn’t bother labeling it as breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
After finishing her meal, Eve found a room in a hotel and settled in.
The comfortable bed quickly lulled her to sleep, and Eve drifted off hugging a pillow larger than herself.
After a long while, Eve woke up.
“Mmm~”
Eve rubbed her eyes and sat up in bed.
“Feeling so empty…”
After waking up, Eve pressed her chest, feeling an inexplicable emptiness there.
Looking around, Eve felt an indescribable sadness.
“So quiet…”
The silent space was truly suffocating.
Only now did Eve realize how eerily quiet this world was.
Eve wanted to take out her phone and play a song to calm herself, but then she discovered her phone was out of battery.
