Considerate Robin and her well-worn thigh garter

This weapon is indeed impressive in its power; it can both tear through space and cleave through seemingly indestructible shields.

But what does this have to do with cutting off Nihility?

"I don't know how you, Acheron, plan to sever the Nihility, but I have a simpler and faster way. These scissors can cut everything, including the relationship between the Nanook and the Nihility."

In other words...

"In other words, you can leave the Black General in the sky alone and only sever the influence of the Nihility Path on the world. Of course, you can directly eliminate the source, but the heavier the burden of what is cut off, the higher the price will be. So, do you want to give it a try?"

"Then what is the price for severing the Nihility Path of nothingness from the world's corruption?" Acheron's emotions, which had gradually faded due to Nihility, were rekindled by the sight of the Miraculous Item before him.

"Have no idea."

"Um?"

"You'll only know the exact cost when you're cutting it, and to cut something, you need to be able to understand or see it," Chen Li said.

"I can bear any cost. But understanding... I'm not sure if I can do it." Acheron hesitated.

"I see... Of course, you can also use a shortcut."

"No need for tricks. I'll come find you after you return to the present. In the meantime, I'll continue my journey deeper into the void. At that time, I'll need to borrow your scissors," Acheron suddenly said.

"Ah, should we wait [now]?"

"If you travel back a hundred years and cause too much of an impact on this world, won't it distort the future? If the cost of that distortion is too high, can you really bear it?"

"Well..."

"You haven't considered these issues, have you?"

"Emmm..." Chen Li remained silent, only stroking his chin.

"Sigh." Acheron rubbed his forehead.

Perhaps because Chen Li had just shocked Acheron so much, Acheron seemed to subconsciously ignore Chen Li's relatively young age.

"I don't think it will have a significant impact..."

Because the Nanook never actively exerts influence on the world, it can be said to be the Aeon with the lowest presence.

Of course, because of the nature of Nihility Path, He can never keep a low profile.

The influence of the Nanook on the world is subtle and gradual. But in other words, measured in just a century, it hasn't really changed much.

"Then it's decided. You should have finished your business, right? It's time to go back. Don't waste your time here because of us who are from the past. I and Ternan will handle the extradition." Acheron looked at the dense shadows above the Dead Sea.

"Alright... See you in a hundred years. Remember to come find me. When the Mom's Tablecloth left here disappears, it means I've returned to the present. I might be on the Xianzhou or the Herta Space Station. Oh, and remember the name 'Miraculous Forger'." Chen Li nodded.

"Hopefully, these scissors will really have an effect on the Nanook."

"Of course. Speaking of which, I even brought some local specialties from the Nanook. Would you like to see them?"

"Local specialties? Deep within IX?" Acheron was a little confused for a moment.

Are you sure you didn't say anything wrong?

"Yes, it's a small Nihility that I cut out from the depths of Nihility with these scissors. It can be considered part of my divine body. I have a few friends who are geniuses, and they have a strong desire for research. I thought they might like it," Chen Li said.

"Oh? What was the price you paid for severing these divine bodies?" Acheron pressed.

Acheron felt that this might serve as a reference for him to bear the consequences of using the Judgment of All Things in the future.

"It made me develop self-destructive tendencies. But since I actually died so many times, it's practically negligible in comparison." Chen Li recalled the cost.

"Then perhaps the next time we meet will be when we have to say goodbye again..."

"Go ahead and cut Acheron, I'll figure out the solution. At worst, it's just death, and we can just be resurrected." Chen Li shrugged.

"That's true. But who is Daddy?" Acheron felt less sad when he thought of Chen Li's Resurrection Card.

Although Acheron felt that some things were more terrifying than death, such as forgetting everything, or being forgotten by everything.

Considering that it's an IX-type haircut, it's understandable that such a price has to be paid.

"Old Dad is my online name. Speaking of which, aren't you planning to go to the future with me? It's not difficult at all."

"No need," Acheron shook his head.

"Okay. By the way, you take these 500 Friends Circle Terminals. In case any Blood Sin Spirits are able to break free from their original behavioral logic and gain self-awareness after soaking in the Rebirth Pool, let them watch the ads. Once they collect all the Resurrection Cards, submit the application for approval directly. I will receive them in the future." Chen Li said, taking out a sack of Friends Circle Terminals.

Ordinary mobile phones can click on ad links, but given the Dead Sea's gloomy weather, ordinary electronic devices will malfunction after a short time.

Currently, the price of a Friends Circle Terminal is one Starstones, and Chen Li has already earned 2300 Starstones since arriving at this past time period, and it is still rising!

In order to prevent people from getting bored while watching ads, Chen Li reluctantly included the Robin song, which he no longer paid for on Sundays, in the ad link.

So that a hundred years from now, when these Blood Sin Spirits go to beat up the Great Extinguisher Phantylia, they won't be shouting something like "Gurgle, gurgle..." or "Ms. Herta is incomparably beautiful, Ms. Herta fall from the sky" before charging in.

It would be better to let these Blood Sin Spirits sing "Sleepless Night," which would also be a Robin.

"Next is the final 'gift'."

"Is there anything else?"

"That's right. In order to punish Acheron for taking me out of the mouth of the Nanook while I was enjoying my meal, I'm going to give you a punishment."

"What punishment?"

"Come on, stick out your tongue."

"..."

"Don't be so expressionless, and I'm not some kind of pervert. I'm doing this for your own good. If you want to experience a deeper level of 'nothingness,' you need to 'have' something first. I plan to rent your sense of taste for a hundred years, and then keep your Mom's Tablecloth. The contrast between vivid taste and meager visuals might help you understand Nihility more deeply. Maybe it will even help you cut ties with Nihility in the future," Chen Li said seriously.

As for why we don't touch your head like we used to to restore sensation throughout your head?

Expensive.

Why rent instead of buy?

It's not because it's expensive; the advantage of renting is that it's always new, while things you buy will disappear over time.

If he were to buy it, Chen Li felt that Acheron's sense of taste would likely disappear again in a short time.

This is similar to finding a girlfriend. A girlfriend can't always be 18, but there will always be girls who are 18...

Moreover, the contrast between taste and sight can indeed help Acheron gain a deeper understanding of "nothingness".

Upon hearing that it might help sever the Nihility, Acheron's expression softened and became resolute again. Under Chen Li's gaze, he slowly opened his mouth, stuck out his tongue, and then closed his eyes.

The obsession with severing the Nihility overcame Acheron's sense of shame, but not completely, so Acheron chose to close his eyes.

As Acheron closed his eyes, he felt a cool sensation on his tongue and simultaneously heard Chen Li's voice.

"Besides, this is also to prevent you from forgetting me. After all, you know your memory isn't very good. I hope you'll remember me every time you enjoy delicious food. Goodbye. You have 30 seconds left. Is there anything you want to say to me?" Chen Li crossed his arms, looking at Acheron.

The 30 seconds is the time required for Chen Li to communicate with the Robin, and for the client to use the Miraculous Forging Guide to teleport him to the client's current time.

"... This is for you." Acheron glanced at Chen Li, then bent down and unfastened the leg ring on his right boot, placing it in Chen Li's hand.

"Well?"

[The effect of the Chaos Physician Miracle Card: Random Gift from Patients]

I see, but this random gift is really strange.

Rather than focusing on random gifts, I think you need to pay more attention to something else.

What's wrong?

[I'm not a professional strategy guide system, but I want to ask you, have you considered what would happen if a Self-Destructor thought of you every time they tasted food? Let's assume your share in their heart remains constant rather than gradually increasing, but the Self-Destructor loses more and more, which means your share in their heart will also increase. So... can you bear the burden of their entire life?]

Oh, so this is what life is all about? I'm still a student.

Just like what you said to that shield warrior at the beginning of the dream... it's no use being born.

So what should we do now?

[I have a great idea. Why don't you confess your feelings to her before she gets too attached to you, and then reject her early on?]

Pixie, you're a genius!

"Acheron, I like you. I want to confess my feelings to you." Chen Li said in the three seconds before he disappeared.

This confession was neither formal nor carefully chosen in its language; it was extremely casual, and presumably it must have been...

"I... will seriously consider it. Give me some time to think about it." Acheron hesitated for a moment, neither agreeing immediately nor refusing.

"???"

In the moment before he disappeared, Chen Li stared unblinkingly at the Miraculous Forging Guide.

[Ahem, as I said at the beginning, I'm not a professional strategy guide software. So my suggestions are for reference only.]

Ntm!

Chapter 180 The Robin and Her Original Leg Ring

"Chen Li? What's wrong? Why do you seem so heavy-hearted?" When Robin saw Chen Li again, she noticed that Chen Li's condition was very different from before.

As a member of the Harmony, the Robin possesses an ability called "Tuning," which allows it to keenly perceive the moods of others.

Chen Li was feeling the same kind of pain as someone who had confessed their feelings to another and been decisively rejected.

"Is something on your mind? You can confide in me, I'll be a quiet listener. Or... would you like to hear a song?" the Robin asked Heart Wings.

Robin still cares about this friend who has provided great motivation for both himself and his brother.

The Robin's song can travel farther after the microphone fogs up, and Sunday can work harder after Chen Li makes a promise.

It's almost like Sunday has turned into a workday.

Moreover, the thought of collecting Resurrection Cards and being able to designate his mother as the one to be revived, and then having his mother successfully win the Revival Match so that his family could be reunited, Robin hum softly.

She actually started humming softly.

Robin plans to release a new album called "A Grateful Heart".

I can never repay Chen Li's kindness!

"It's nothing. I just accidentally listened to the slander of a petty person and made a wrong decision," Chen Li sighed.

I shouldn't have believed the Pixie's nonsense.

That makes sense. If the Pixie could understand people's hearts, would the Miracle System have destroyed countless worlds and earned itself the title of World Destroyer because it couldn't discern people's hearts?

You can eat anything, but you can't say anything. Before I was born, the Miracle System was utterly inhumane. The Miracle System appeared around me only a few days before I met you.

How dare you show your face?

"... I'm going to fix a bug in my Friends Circle now. Goodbye."

"What wrong decision? Is it related to... a girl?" Robin asked, observing Chen Li's expression.

"Was I that obvious? Well, I was." Chen Li nodded sadly.

Chen Li wondered if he, as a student, really had the ability to shoulder the lives of other people.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems like it really could.

That's alright then.

After receiving Chen Li's reply, Robin became even more certain that Chen Li must have become depressed after his confession failed.

So, who did Chen Li confess to but fail to win over?

Houraisan Kaguya? Sirin? Or perhaps a member of the Genius Society? Like Ms. Herta or the Lady. Nguyen Mai.

The Robin fell into thought.

"If Mister Chen Li doesn't mind, perhaps I..."

"Speaking of Robin, aren't you planning to go back to Penacony yet?"

"Huh? Oh, there are still two more tour performances. After all, there's still some time before the Grand Gala, and I want to take advantage of this time to spread my singing voice further. I've always believed that singing can bring power, and this Miraculous Item has helped me realize this dream." With Robin hand, the robin's microphone Robin Microphone Artifact appeared beside him.

In the time since Chen Li finished crafting this Miraculous Item, Robin, who was busy on set, has completed another tour. This tour was very successful, not only awakening people's love for peace with her songs, but also making Robin famous and raising her popularity to a new level.

However, as his fame grew and he gained more fans, so did the number of Black Chess Pieces. Now, every Sunday, in addition to harassing Chen Li, they would also ask, "Can you forge a Miraculous Item that can slap the Black Chess Pieces through the internet?"

What? The person on the other end of the phone is just Black Chess Pieces, but not necessarily a bad person?

Sunday: He Robin, what kind of good person could he be!
