The Princess Meets the Knights / The Dragon Falls

The Princess, lowered it slightly, her eyes filled with madness and distortion.

But in an instant, these massive amounts of negative emotions flowed from Hatsune Miku's feet into the bases of the four life-size figures.

"Tonight, you are permitted to step out of the forbidden zone! Go and let loose! Go and enjoy yourself! This will be a celebration of joy and fear!"

Her Princess slightly raised her hand, releasing the restrictions on the "figures'" movements, her smile both innocent and wicked.

Well then, it's my turn to go on stage and perform...

As Hatsune Miku softly sang, her princess dress transformed into a black gothic outfit, she held a lace-trimmed parasol, and her hair was adorned with a small skull-shaped hair accessory.

As she stepped toward the window, neon stairs leading to the stage materialized automatically beneath her feet, and cheers from all directions converged.

P. S.: I originally wanted to use Haiyin's appearance, but I found it a bit too morbid. Princess, please stick to the normal gothic style.

Chapter 194, Section 205: The Princess and the Knights' Encounter

As the clock struck eight in the evening, a clear and melodious sound rang out, and the celestial bodies in the sky began their symphony of music.

No matter where the players were, pop-up windows automatically appeared with concert links.

Whether they are in a misty swamp teeming with giant lizards, on the Avalon Island elves roam, or on a desolate battlefield ravaged by evil fairytale characters.

Once they excitedly click on the pop-up, they can seamlessly connect with the stage through 3D projection.

The surrounding monsters began to ignore them, stopped attacking, and scattered.

Of course, there were also those who were addicted to games or were explorers with ulterior motives. Most of them ignored the invitation to the concert and continued their monster-hunting and leveling-up journey.

In the Elf Kingdom, the people who had clicked on the link at the same time sat on the grass, gathered together, and took out all sorts of strangely flavored green onions, ready to listen quietly to this performance.

Kevin gazed thoughtfully at the wild monsters that had scattered and moved away from him.

On the glittering stage, the lights converged on the central rising platform, where the virtual Diva with emerald green twin ponytails, dressed in a dark gothic outfit, took the stage amidst cheers.

Then, bands composed of various skins such as Sakura Miku, Kagamine Twins, Megurine Luka, and Yowane Haku emerged from behind the scenes, complete with keyboards, drums, electric guitars, and more.

"Miku! Miku! Miku!"

The cheers from the audience surged like waves, growing louder and louder until they formed a massive, overwhelming wave of support. The crowd waved their Glow Stick Leek, and the support of tens of thousands of fans made the atmosphere on stage incredibly exciting.

"Zheng..."

As the first clear note from the keyboard flowed from Megurine Luka's fingertips, the cheers abruptly ceased. The idol girl, wearing a black headset, stood with her hands on her hips and sang the lyrics in a tone that was both coquettish and commanding.

The World's Number One Princess

This kind of response

That's understandable, isn't it?

Right?

The first rule is to notice that I am different from usual.

Different hairstyles

The second point is that you need to thoroughly examine me from head to toe.

Got it?

Thirdly, I'll say something.

You need to reply with three sentences.

If you understand

My right hand is free right now, hurry up and do something!

It doesn't mean

Willfulness and such

I just hope you truly feel that way about me.

So cute

The World's Number One Princess

Notice me

Na~ Na~

After the process of natural selection, at least 80% of those with malicious intentions have been eliminated, and those who have survived safely are mostly Hatsune Miku's fan base.

They enjoy this world, they pursue this world, and their daily performance at eight o'clock sharp is like a festival celebration.

And this Hatsune Miku's signature works, "The World's Number One Princess," brought the atmosphere of the venue to its peak, with many people cheering wildly.

"We swear to protect Her Princess!"

"Ah, that sound... I'm dead..."

"This perfect human modeling, this graceful figure, has transcended the boundaries of virtual reality. Her Princess has arrived! The concert was the best!"

Some excited fan club members took out the postcards, records, and autographed letters they had found in the Easter eggs and waved them vigorously in a field of green onions.

Hirano Toda, dressed in knight Toda Hirano, was squeezed into the crowd, holding his girlfriend Asami Hiraoka's hand as the two waved glow sticks together in a joyful atmosphere.

Although the mission caused some delays, we made it in time.

At that moment, Toda Hirano listened to the Princess's singing and then secretly glanced at his girlfriend's cute face, suddenly feeling that he might be one of the luckiest people in the world.

In the Elf Kingdom, Kevin glanced around at the elves dancing gracefully to the music, then turned his gaze back to the Princess on the stage, who was earnestly issuing decrees in the kingdom of music.

Her clear and melodious baby voice, her quirky and clever image, and her cute and lively dance moves have captivated many.

Furthermore, the backup dancers, keeping time with the beat, unconsciously get the audience moving along with them.

The short song captivated the fans, and even the other listeners felt a deep sense of protectiveness towards this adorable Princess.

As the first song ended, the more melancholic "Deep Sea Girl" and the upbeat "I'll Miku Miku You" were performed in different styles, coinciding with the Princess's costume change.

The crowd's emotions rose and fell with the singing, while the perfectly placed 3D projection behind the Chu Music Band created a perfect color scheme and narrative.

Even the deep-thinking Kevin abandoned his reserve and listened intently, a satisfied smile on his face.

Meanwhile, on the desolate battlefield.

The Sword and Shield Warrior responsible for collecting the Easter eggs had his head severed by a giant chain sword that attacked from the night as he bent down. His body turned into scattered starlight, and his team ID was immediately deleted.

"Damn it, were those accounts deleted? How did these guys even get out?!"

The therapist realized this seemed like a direct account deletion and cursed under their breath.

However, before he could say more, his teammates, the berserker and the archer, were reduced to dust and vanished as the shadowy figure charged forward.

Only when the head was about to fly off did the healer see the Black-clothed Girl with Blue Flame dancing in her eyes walk past expressionlessly.

Meanwhile, just as the concert was in full swing, a dragon's hunt was unfolding in the pitch-black night.

The Elf Kingdom.

During halftime, Kevin took the opportunity to pat Yuzuriha Inori on the head to encourage her, who looked eager to try, and handed her a Glow Stick Leek -shaped microphone.

"The deep and melancholic style of 'Deep Sea Girl' suits you very well. Try singing it."

Everyone cooperated, showing anticipation as they sat around Yuzuriha Inori, ready to listen to her sing.

"I, sinking into a sea of sorrow"

Even opening my eyes felt like an eternity.

It will fall to any place from here.

Can't anyone find it?

Where should we go and what should we do?

A beam of light suddenly shone in

Reaching out, it seems I can touch

But they were swept away by the waves and lost...

Yuzuriha Inori sat sideways on the grass, her hand tightly wrapped around her chest as she sang softly. She looked helpless and sad, and her originally fast-paced enunciation became soothing and low.

However, the change in rhythm adds a strong sense of oppression to the song "Deep Sea Girl," making the listener feel as if they are in the dark depths of the ocean, unable to breathe, and unable to see a ray of sunlight.

Within the Black Cat Group, the boys and girls with weak wills looked fearful and anxious, their bodies struggling and their hands instinctively searching for something to grasp.

"Holy shit! You're going to die! Take your hand off me!"

After Captain Keita regained his senses, he looked at the thief who was grabbing his chest muscles seeking comfort, hurriedly shook him off, and felt a chill run down his spine.

The spearman and Tetsuo, who had huddled together for warmth, awkwardly parted ways.

On the contrary, the three little girls, Silica, Sachi, Kirigaya Nao, unconsciously sat around Kazuto Kirigaya, each grabbing a part of his body. After regaining their senses, they released their grips and looked away.

This is a style completely different from Hatsune Miku's tearful smile and expectation of redemption; it is a thoroughly dark style after all hope has been extinguished.

The girl's musical talent was on full display at that moment.

"A near-perfect performance! A unique and innovative style! 100 points!"

Before Kevin could even offer his praise, the Glow Stick Leek in Yuzuriha Inori's hand suddenly burst into star-like sparks.

Amidst heartfelt and slightly joyful exclamations of praise, a green-haired girl with twin ponytails in a sailor uniform walked smilingly down the transparent staircase extending from the stage.

"So, we've finally met you in person, Your Princess? Shall the concert continue?"

The commander took a deep breath and asked with a smile.

"I can be 1, or 10,000; I can be the origin, or the endless future..."

"So, each of them is simply a different branch of myself..."

"I've always been here..."

Hatsune Miku pointed to the Gothic Lolita-style virtual idol on the object, as well as a host of derivative skins, her chin slightly raised in smug satisfaction.

P. S.: How about an extra chapter for the National Day holiday? I'll have some time during the break.

Chapter 195, Section 206: The Fall of the Dragon

"We are the voice of the beginning of the world, singing of antiquity, tracing history..."

"We are the guiding voice of civilization, praising the present and chanting the future..."

Kevin couldn't help but recite Hatsune 10086) chuunibyou (delusional) lines, a look of sudden realization appearing on his face.

"Therefore, music is the essence of this world; only by listening attentively and singing with our hearts can we set the tone for chaos..."

"The Herrscher? The one who is truly willing to listen to Her Princess's singing and respond to it... I see..."

Hatsune Miku's eyes narrowed into crescent shapes upon hearing this, clearly showing her extreme satisfaction with Kevin's understanding.

"That's right, music is the essence of this world, and singing is the source of power!"

In reality, the Five-colored Great Dragons was merely a trap she used to lure schemers and vent her negative emotions.

Those who are there to appreciate music are probably the ones who will be willing to sit down and listen to her performance.

"You are 1, and also 10,000, so all forms of the Five-colored Great Dragons will be your incarnations..."

"So, the one who darkened fairy tales, allowed monsters to roam freely, and plunged the world into chaos, wasn't the Five-colored Great Dragons, but you?"
