I Ask You, You Are...

Not far from the rift stood a great mountain, as though an ancient giant had shattered half of it with an iron whip, creating such a bizarre sight.

Three deep human-shaped pits still remained on the mountainside, and Kurumi could even sense the lingering aura of Zadkiel.

The blood spilled by the Sacred Armor Centipede King had long since been fought over and drained by all kinds of insects. She had once again arrived on the End Black Main Timeline, the era that belonged to Bai Jiayu.

Kurumi stepped through the air and looked toward the sky above the center of the great rift. Zadkiel's aura had remained there the whole time, even disrupting space-time and continuously warping the surrounding space, preventing any spiritual energy from entering.

The previous "her," or rather, the previous "herself," had only left not long ago.

Perhaps that person had been her after all. Who knew?

To avoid drawing Fate's attention, Kurumi suppressed the vast Yuan Force within her, preventing it from resonating with the spiritual energy outside.

Here, the sky was blue, the earth was green, and all kinds of plants had undergone genetic changes in order to adapt to the environmental shifts caused by the intrusion of spiritual energy.

Growing larger was their shared choice.

As plants grew larger due to the spiritual energy invasion, they absorbed more carbon dioxide. Meanwhile, Earth's population was rapidly shrinking. Before long, Earth's oxygen levels would rise dramatically.

It was highly possible that the planet would return to the ancient era.

If oxygen levels increased, even the native Earth insects people could casually crush beneath their feet would gain the opportunity to evolve.

They would grow larger generation after generation, perhaps even surpassing Red-crowned Beetles! And because of spiritual energy, they might very well evolve into insects
