Looking at the figure in front of him, Qin Chuan had doubts about his own existence.

If he has always been here, what kind of existence is he now?

Incarnation?

Pretender?

Countless speculations emerged in my mind, Qin Chuan calmed myself down and observed the surrounding environment.

This space is desolate and small.

The whole thing is a piece of land sealed in a bubble, with a length and width of less than a hundred meters. You can see the end at a glance. There is an iron rod standing in the corner with a half-drawn iron piece stuck on it. The two letters "xi" can be vaguely seen. Other than that, there is nothing special about it.

Through the surrounding bubbles, you can see the strange and bizarre world outside.

Countless lines of varying light and shade are tangled together, with neither their source nor their destination visible.

In addition, this place is so special that he can't even sense Apocalypse.

To put it simply, the game menu cannot be called up.

Qin Chuan really want to ask, Kayaba Akihiko, is it you.

Gathering his mind, Qin Chuan looked at himself in front of him and secretly guessed.

Qin Chuan stood in front of him, his whole body covered in a cloak, even his head was hidden in the hood, and only his face could be seen.

Tiredness, vicissitudes of life, and hesitation, this is Qin Chuan's first feeling.

After pondering for a moment, Qin Chuan couldn't help but said, "Who are you and why do you look the same as me."

The cloak Qin Chuan seemed to be smiling, the cloak on his body trembled slightly, and replied, "I am you, you are me, can't you see it?"

Qin Chuan sneered twice, "I am me, but you are not me."

Although the person in front of him looked exactly like him, Qin Chuan knew that it was absolutely impossible for him to show such an attitude.

The cloaked Qin Chuan seemed to understand Qin Chuan's thoughts, and let out a long sigh. He stretched out his hand in front of his face, and his face immediately changed into a black mist.

If you look carefully, you can still see flashes of light in the dark fog.

Like a shooting star, it disappears in an instant.

As the cloaked man stretched out his hand, Qin Chuan saw with sharp eyes that Nonexistence had no body under the cloak.

Even the arm just now was made of black mist.

The overall style is very similar to Death Bringer.

In other words, Death Bringer is very similar to the being in this cloak.

Qin Chuan adhered to the principle of asking questions when he asked, "What is your relationship with Death Bringer?"

Then he added, "And why did you call me here?"

The being in the cloak did not answer directly, but said in a calm tone, "You have a lot of questions."

Qin Chuan shrugged and said calmly, "You called me here just to answer the question."

The other party was noncommittal, "I can answer some, but not all."

Qin Chuan smiled and said, "That's enough, let's talk about your origin first."

"My origin? Are you sure you don't want to ask about your origin first?"

Hearing this, Qin Chuan said curiously, "My origin is very clear, there is nothing to ask."

The cloaked man's voice was a bit weird. "Really? Are you sure your memory is really okay?"

memory?

Qin Chuan fell into deep thought.

This question is honestly quite unanswerable.

How he was sure there was something wrong with his memory.

The cloaked man said quietly, "This area is not subject to observation by Apocalypse. In other words, the skills will not be affected."

Qin Chuan understood it and used the False Words skill directly on himself.

"Is there something missing in my memory?"

As he asked and answered himself, an invisible force hovered over Qin Chuan's tongue, causing him to unconsciously give the answer.

"No."

That's it.

"Has my memory been modified?"

"No."

Two questions made Qin Chuan's heart sink.

Taking a deep breath, Qin Chuan asked the last question.

"Do I only have the memory of one world?"

"Yes."

Qin Chuan was silent.

He actually has memories of two worlds?

Then he is not only a reborn person, but also has another level of identity.

The cloaked guy in front of me is probably related to another world.

It's a pity that False Words can only take effect for three questions, otherwise Qin Chuan really wants to keep asking to the end.

Gathering his mind, Qin Chuan said, "If I have the memory of two worlds, then why can't I notice... Oh, my memory has been missing and modified, and it's hard to find out if you think about it. Speaking of whether you have a name, I don't even know how to call you."

The being in the cloak thought for a moment and said, "You can call me the Returnless."

"Okay, the Returnless." Qin Chuan said quickly, "Since you brought me here, it means that you also know Apocalypse's secret. I just want to ask what I can do."

The Returnless shook his head. "You are too weak now and can't do anything."

Qin Chuan said angrily, "Then why did you call me here? Are you kidding me? If I'm not wrong, you can only call me a few times, otherwise you will be discovered by Apocalypse, so don't hide it, just say it if you have anything."

The Returnless's hood swayed slightly, he must have been laughing, and his voice was slightly rippled. "As expected of you, you are as smart as ever. But we all failed in the beginning, so what can you do now."

Qin Chuan smiled and said, "The past was the past, and the present is the present. Dude, it would be boring if you keep referring to the past as the present."

"..."

The Returnless was silent.

It took a long time to hold back the words "Damn it."

This sentence made Qin Chuan completely sure that he definitely knew this so-called the Returnless, and was even familiar with him.

I'm afraid many of his missing memories are related to this guy.

After a moment of silence, the Returnless said, "I'm here to remind you that history will not repeat itself. Any changes will bring new results. You only have one last chance. Our world has been exhausted and cannot provide any help."

Qin Chuan raised his eyebrows.

This statement is quite interesting.

Has he already tried to challenge Apocalypse?

When did it happen?

That's too brave.

As expected of him.

But judging from the tone of the Returnless, it seems that the previous results were not very good.

So, what has changed this time?

After gathering his thoughts, Qin Chuan said, "Do you have any stories to tell me? Or maybe you have something to give me."

The Returnless spread his hands. "No. If I tell you too much information, it is very likely that Apocalypse will detect it. In fact, this meeting is already extremely risky. If nothing else, it will lead to some changes beyond expectations."

Qin Chuan felt as if he was hit by a heavy hammer in the heart. He was silent for a long time and then said quietly, "Then you can not call me over, but directly use Shadow Leap to send me back to Apocalypse Main World."

The Returnless scratched his head with his black mist arm and said cheerfully, "I was negligent."

Qin Chuan raised the middle finger.

Thank you so much.

The Returnless did not care about Qin Chuan's uncivilized actions and reminded again, "Be prepared, the battle is about to begin. Everything is for our homeland."

After saying that, he waved his hand. "Bye bye."

The next second, Qin Chuan felt that the scene in front of him quickly receded, and his whole person flew out of the bubble, turning into a stream of light across the endless space.

When his vision recovered, he looked at Belial who was close at hand with a look of astonishment on his face, and Qin Chuan smiled shyly.

"I said it was an accident, do you believe it?"
