[In the scene, a young boy with bandages wrapped around his head, covered in wounds and tears welling in his eyes, tries to reach for a cup but never quite touches it...]
"It's over; this is definitely a tragedy!"
Everyone who saw this scene seemed to already know the ending.
"Can't the damn video author give us a happy ending for once?"
"Can we get something that's actually uplifting?"
Just when things seemed to be looking up, another stab in the back!
....
No Game No Life World:
"Is this our world? What exactly happened?"
"Why do we have no memory of this at all... We know nothing about this history."
The leaders of various races wore puzzled expressions.
In the palace, Dola looked curiously at the young boy in the video and whispered, "Sora, doesn't this boy look a bit like you?"
"Not just a bit—it's exactly the same."
Beside her, Jibril licked the screen, her innate curiosity making her desperate to figure out how this screen was created.
"But it can't be Sora, right? After all, the current Sora looks so... perverted..." Dola couldn't help but complain.
But because of her previous loss, the more she looked at Sora, the handsomer he seemed...
"Shiro, does your brother seem perverted to you?"
"Not at all."
Shiro shook her head but then added, "He's just dumb."
"Wah... Shiro..."
Outside the city, I-ryu was playing chess with the God of Games, Tet. The outcome was predictable: I-ryu lost.
"Ah! Why did I lose?!" I-ryu scratched her head in frustration, her small face filled with unwillingness. But she still handed the fish to the smiling young man in front of her.
The young man chuckled, reset the chess pieces, picked up the king, and said to I-ryu, "Then let me tell you a story no one has ever heard before～"
The young girl clearly wasn't interested and urged him to hurry up and play another game.
But just as Tet was about to begin, the screen in the sky displayed a figure that filled him with nostalgia.
"It seems someone else will tell this myth for me..."
No Game No Life Zero World:
In a cave, Riku stared dumbfounded at the video in the sky—it was him.
Then, as if remembering something, he burst into tears, clutching his chest.
"That's the Suniaster... that's the Suniaster..."
Behind him stood a silent young girl of the Exceed race, gently patting his shoulder.
She cradled his head softly, stroking it.
[At this time, the sixteen races did not yet exist in this world...]
[Humans were at the bottom... not even acknowledged]
[This happened 6000 years ago]
[It was a long war that tore apart the heavens and earth, shattering stars]
[No one remembered it, and no records were left]
[Even so... one person remembered it deeply...]
[The scene gradually revealed a white-haired boy playing chess in a room against an invisible opponent, but he never won.]
[Then.....]
The sky was dark, a blood-red moon hung high, the ground was covered in black ash, and the world was in ruins, filled with debris...
The scene zoomed out, showing the grown white-haired boy wearing goggles and a protective suit.
There was no life in the boy's eyes, only numbness.
They arrived at the wreckage of a Dwarf battleship to collect items, where they discovered a world map left by the Dwarves.
The boy deciphered the information left by the Dwarves, growing angrier with each breakthrough. He growled:
[How much more do they want to destroy this planet?!]
But at that moment, they were discovered by a Demon species. To escape, the boy looked emptily at his companion, as if he had experienced the same thing before.
The boy coldly commanded a one-armed man:
[Iwon, this is an order: die here!]
The man nodded without hesitation.
[I swear to the will.]
The man ran forward, removed his mask, looked back at the others, and smiled.
[My children are in your hands. I'm sorry... Riku...]
A giant black monster burst out from the wreckage!
Iwon threw a bundle of explosives forward and roared:
[Your bait is here! Come at me, Demon]
[Boom!]
A massive explosion engulfed the Demon species, and I won...
The boy and another person ran out...
The scene gradually rose, blood-red mist wrapped around lightning, and several beams of light piercing through the clouds. Something in the sky swept out a beam of light, causing explosions and mushroom clouds that destroyed everything!!!
Endless flames swallowed the earth, and battleships in the sky were consumed, turning to dust...
Amid this war, a boy narrated the story of the past:
[There was once something called the sun in the sky...]
[White flames emitted dazzling light... and the sky was a clear, azure blue...]
[An ancient... fairy tale-like story...]
[The prolonged struggle among the gods... and the races they created... burned the earth...]
[The sky filled with ash... and lethal black ash began to fall...]
The boy looked up, his despairing eyes heartbreaking. A small piece of black ash fell on Riku's forehead, instantly infecting him.
The boy said with indifference:
[This black ash... might bring some mercy...]
[Because this black ash can block the enemy's detection—this is the mercy the boy spoke of.]
...
"What the hell is this damn world? Humanity isn't even acknowledged?!"
"That lethal black ash is the last mercy for humans?"
"Why, in this world, can people say things like 'go die' to others so easily?!"
People across countless worlds were outraged. In a war among gods, was survival such a luxury for humanity?
