Kael listened to the familiar voice of the system. He understood exactly what it meant. It was almost certainly going to show his past missions to the public. He did not care. After all, he was completely invincible now.
"But I remember that reincarnation missions sometimes feature repeated encounters with the same people."
Kael recalled that during his missions, he often went through different experiences with certain people many times. This would definitely cause problems in a world like Teyvat. Originally, Kael thought his missions were just simple practice. But the system claimed that the broadcast would show everyone's true past experiences and memories. It would even return those memories to the people involved. If that was true, some events from his missions would not match up with reality.
Unless...
"Could it really be like what I read online in my past life?"
"Teyvat itself is a world trapped in a cycle, constantly repeating the same experiences."
"My reincarnation missions randomly appeared at different points in the timeline of Teyvat. They even covered repeated cycles of the world."
"Forget it..."
None of this really mattered to Kael. He was just planning to retire and enjoy a peaceful life in Teyvat. With his current strength, Kael could already break through fate and cycles. The loop of Teyvat posed no threat to him at all.
He settled his thoughts. Kael looked at Furina, who was completely stunned. Her eyes were wide as she stared at the light screen in disbelief. But from the slight movement in her eyes and the small tremble in her body, he could tell. Rather than being shocked, Furina was actually in a state of pure excitement. It made sense. After all, for Furina, nothing was more fun than watching an entertaining story unfold.
"Hey! Lady Furina."
"Ah!" Furina jumped. She looked at Kael nervously.
"Watching this kind of fun show alone is too boring."
"Why do you not come over to my place? We can watch it together."
"I have plenty of tasty snacks, drinks, and little cakes."
Kael pointed toward his room. He made a warm invitation.
"This..."
"Is that not a bit wrong?"
Furina fidgeted and looked away shyly. She had no memory of this new neighbor. The laws in the Court of Fontaine were strict. Plus, her own identity was quite special. There were also special rules during the viewing period. Furina was not worried that Kael had any bad intentions toward her. She was just feeling a bit shy and embarrassed.
"There is nothing wrong with it."
"Does a new life not start with getting to know your new neighbors?"
Looking at the bright, handsome smile of Kael, Furina thought about it for a moment.
"What he says actually makes a lot of sense."
Having lived five hundred years of loneliness, Furina had long forgotten how to make friends. But everyone has to face a new life eventually. Maybe watching this together was the perfect chance to start a new chapter.
With that thought, Furina stopped hesitating and smiled. "Wait for me a moment. I will get dressed and come over."
"You can prepare the desserts and tea for the viewing first."
After leaving those words, Furina ran excitedly back into her room.
"This is amazing."
"I will get to watch a thrilling drama soon."
"A story about reincarnation... What a breathtaking plot."
Kael: "....."
Everything was ready. Everyone waited nervously, their eyes fixed on the screen. They were afraid of being chosen and having their past lives exposed, which might cause trouble. But at the same time, they hoped to be chosen, curious to see what their past lives were like. Finally, under everyone's eager gaze, the light screen flickered.
"The image is showing up."
"Here it comes. Who is this lucky chosen one?"
"Look, what is that? Stairs?"
"Yeah, I can only see a pair of legs climbing the stairs. Who is it?"
[Dark clouds covered the sky, with lightning flashing and thunder rolling.]
[The stairs were incredibly long.]
[A black-haired figure was climbing the sky-reaching stairs, step by step.]
[One step, two steps...]
[At the very top of the stairs.]
[A magnificent throne seemed to stand against the horizon.]
[The figure stood facing the throne. After a long while, he placed his hand on it.]
[As a dazzling light burst forth.]
[The figure slowly sat down on the throne.]
