In a void.

As far as the eye could see, there was only darkness.

Only one spot was flickering with a tiny light.

Rienta severed the magical supply to the altar that was connected to Honoroy.

Once the altar lost the magical support of the Rienta, all the materials that made up it were instantly swallowed up by the surrounding darkness.

The only light in the void also vanished.

Rienta was already used to this kind of situation.

Behind him, two rings made of knives and swords slowly rotated, one clockwise and one counterclockwise.

It blocked the darkness that had already surged in front of it.

"Oh..."

Rienta sneered and looked up at the empty sky.

He then waved his hand, summoning a teleportation portal.

The entire space seemed to boil over, and darkness surged wildly towards the teleportation portal.

But they were all blocked from entering.

Rienta stepped into the void and slowly walked into the portal.

With the teleportation portal gone, the space returned to calm once more.

Inside the Personal Space.

Unlike the outside world, which is nothing but darkness.

Here there is light, mountains, trees, flowers, and flowing water.

There are also two small, somewhat simple-looking mounds of earth, surrounded by all sorts of flowers and plants.

The outline of the city was faintly visible in the distance.

Rienta stood there, stunned, before the two graves.

His expression was no longer as cold as before.

A long time.

A thousand words in my heart turned into a soft sigh.

Suddenly, the words spoken by the clone 'Rienta' when it disappeared flashed through his mind.

He glanced at one of the small mounds and chuckled softly, muttering, "What do you mean his memories are so much better than mine...?"

I clearly have more precious memories.

"As expected, the clones created using the [Water Mirror Demon's] abilities are flawed; they understand absolutely nothing."

"Don't you think so?"

"Serie."

The surrounding flowers and plants swayed gently, as if in response to Rienta's question.

That's all.

Rienta then lay down next to the small mound.

Although the entire scenery within his Personal Space was projected by him.

However, the flowers and plants created by [Flower field magic] do not disappear; instead, they are indistinguishable from real flowers and plants.

However, while other items created by [Projection Magic] have the same effect as real items, they will still disappear when the magic power is exhausted.

The issues involved are very complex.

Ultimately, however, it boils down to a fundamental logical problem.

Both are forms of magic that create something from nothing, creating things out of thin air.

The effect of [Flower field magic] is simple: it creates flowers and plants that the user has analyzed.

But [Projection Magic] creates objects in one's mind.

As long as Rienta has a fairly good understanding of the item's basic structure, logic, function, and so on.

It can be perfectly created, and its effects are even identical to the genuine product.

It has form and substance.

If conditions permit, we could even create a sun.

This condition refers to the fact that Rienta truly believes she can create a sun.

The world of magic is made up of imagination.

Even though Rienta withstood the calamity that threatened to destroy the world, he still couldn't comprehend this.

Just as he had absolutely no idea how to resolve this world-destroying calamity.

So Serie died.

The whole world was swallowed by darkness.

In this vast world, only Rienta, an outsider, remains.

Lying next to Serie, Rienta closed her eyes and began to consider the feasibility of the entire plan.

For Rienta in another timeline, a long time has passed since the start of the First-Class Mage Exam.

But for him, everything seemed so rushed.

This timeline has been locked by darkness, so he cannot go back to the past.

But the other timeline doesn't exist yet.

Although he cannot physically travel to another timeline, he can still do some things.

For example.

Use [Projection Magic] to create a body that allows your consciousness to descend into.

However, this can only be done once.

In other words, each timeline can only be done once.

Therefore, he must be careful in choosing the timing of his arrival.

He had done similar things countless times, but this time something unexpected happened.

As they prepared to descend, they discovered that the timeline was locked by an inexplicable force.

Only one possible timeframe for his arrival has been specified.

That was the hundred years before and after the Demon King was defeated.

It was as if they were waiting specifically for him.

This was a situation he had never encountered before when traveling to other timelines.

Moreover, this force gave him a feeling that was both familiar and unfamiliar.

Familiarity stems from shared origins.

It feels unfamiliar because it's the opposite of what you're used to.

One yin, one yang.

This is the timeline he's looking for.

Rienta, who is just as powerful as herself but walks a different path.

However, his own personalized training plan hadn't even started yet.

Wrong.

Perhaps this exclusive training plan for the righteous Rienta has succeeded.

It's just in the future.

With slight modifications to the original plan, the projection was carried out without hesitation.

After countless projections, Rienta has gained a general understanding of the development trends of the entire world.

However, the training programs are all largely the same.

They used the demons enhanced by the dark energy to recreate a new batch of eight great demons.

Increase the weight of dark energy throughout the world.

This will provoke a counterattack from the righteous forces.

Under normal circumstances, righteousness will only choose Rienta.

In very rare cases, one of the following will be chosen: Serie, Frieren, Kraft, the Hero of the South, Himmel.

However, the plan did not go smoothly this time.

Something's wrong with the dark energy in this world.

Only Shen Du and Tso Lan gained sentience after their creation was successful.

Moreover, it's somewhat different from what he created before.

They gave themselves a new name.

The new name of the capital city is Heiterge, and the new name of Tso Lan is Honoroy.

The other six demons are emotionless killing machines.

Rienta hesitated for a long time before deciding not to destroy the six failed attempts.

Instead, they planned to seal it away in various locations across the continent.

After explaining their respective tasks to Shen Du and Tso Lan, he left to find a suitable place to seal these demons.

The forest where Frieren had lived for hundreds of years was the one he chose to seal the mountain demon, Po Kong.

Part of the reason was that he wanted to meet the Hero of the South who could foresee his arrival.

[Crystal Demon] left some backup plans while sealing the six great demons.

I did this just to have some fun.

Who made Rienta from the future in this timeline seem to completely distrust herself?

I only left myself one entry point at a specific time.

Even though I'm also Rienta, why am I so wary of him?

Would he really do something reckless?

That wretched Rienta.

So.

Whether it's the clone 'Rienta' or the God Capital.

The information provided by both of them is true.

Only.

The order in which everything happened has changed slightly.

That's all.

After completing the plan, Rienta did not choose to leave immediately.

Instead, it remained on this timeline.

Because he wanted to see Serie in this world.

But just as this thought arose...

The body that had been inhabited by the consciousness was instantly destroyed by a beam of sword light.

When Rienta's consciousness returned, the entire timeline was completely sealed off.

Just as he was inwardly cursing Rienta for being stingy, a sword light shot straight towards Rienta.

He did not dodge, because the sword light did not carry any killing intent.

The sword light disappeared after transmitting a memory to him.

This memory belongs to 'Rienta,' a replica of [Water Mirror Demon].

It wasn't cut.

I just don't know how to write the sequel.

My original plan was to write it slowly.

I tried my best to write something different without making the characters and world-building out of character.

However, the feedback was somewhat poor.

So, is this chapter an explanation of the revised outline?

That's roughly the gist of it.

At this point, it's too late to worry about out-of-character (OOC) behavior.

It's fanfiction anyway.

Just write it.

That's all.
