As everyone knew, Aetherium Wars, a game that had become a universe-wide sensation, featured an excellent system of type advantages.
Xenos beat Humanoids, Humanoids beat Mechanicals, and Mechanicals beat Xenos. The cycle went on and on.
Honestly, you didn't even need to puzzle over why Exeggutor was Dragon-type while Charizard wasn't, or other mysteries like that. Aside from not satisfying certain Sneasler devotees, it could absolutely be called a decent monster-summoning game.
"Hey, everyone! Follow the stream! Little Gui's about to show you one of her specialties~"
Today was another day of Xianzhou streamer Guinaifen working hard to chase trending topics, keep her viewers happy, and draw enough traffic to earn a living.
"Smash a rock on my chest?! Ah, I can't do that one. It's just me today. How about eating noodles while doing a one-handed handstand—wait, I don't have noodles. I'll swallow a greatsword whole for you!"
She had just taken out her prop and was about to begin—
"The Round Table convenes! Acknowledged, Bedivere. Acknowledged, Lancelot."
"This is distant Camelot!"
She whipped around, as though she had heard something familiar.
Came-what-lot?
Was I missing home that badly?
That shouldn't be it. I've been eating and sleeping well these past few days.
Ever the professional streamer, Guinaifen raised her selfie stick and stared blankly southeast. In an instant, a brilliant golden pillar of light vast enough to engulf all of Cloudford pierced heaven and earth.
Within the radiance, she saw an immaculate white royal city standing above Cloudford. The vision did her no harm, but it was so beautiful and magnificent that she felt as though she had entered a golden dreamscape.
Only when everything returned to normal did Guinaifen come to her senses.
"Guys, did you see that...?" Guinaifen's professional instincts made her glance at the chat.
