In the dark night, Ain Grandt's 20th floor, Central Plaza, 1st Street, located in the middle of a restaurant and a weapon shop, there is a small hotel near the corner.

The windows on the second floor, with almost no light, were wide open, with only a little faint silver light.

On the bed beside the window, a man in a tuxedo costume was lying.

On his left hand is an urn made of gray-green wood and outer iron sheet. It is decorated simply and the urn is dark inside the urn without locking seams.

Hold it tightly with your left hand, put your right hand on the urn and open it. A creaking sound suddenly sounded in the room.

Sure enough, is this the real result?

“From the beginning, there was nothing.”

There was nothing in the urn that Sophieli had been guarding, and it was empty, without the ashes of the owner she mentioned.

In response, Natsume began to doubt what she mentioned about the owner's wife.

What exactly does she want to do?

Why, she would lie with an NPC and give Natsume a task that does not exist at all.

Thinking about this, Natsume took out the things Sophie gave him from his warehouse before escaping the corridor.

The message recording crystal is emitting a soft light, and the right hand tightly holding it can feel the temperature that the crystal does not exist.

What will you tell yourself?

Natsume wanted to guess, but found that this kind of guess was too stupid. After all, she only lasted three or four days.

It was impossible for Natsume to understand her in just three or four days. After all, is it really possible to let a player understand NPC?

No, shake your head and deny it, Sophie is not like NPC, which is closer to AI than NPC, an imaginary life form created by artificial intelligence and high technology.

For some reason, Natsume began to smile bitterly when he thought of this. He clicked on the opening tag of the message recording crystal in the floating window. Sophilina's voice without much emotion started to sound.

[The master once said that humans are creatures with infinite dreams, and their fantasies about the future are always full of possibilities. Talents who are moving towards the upper level are worthy of having real dreams.]

It’s not that you stop moving forward, but that you are stride forward.

Sophiely wanted to tell herself what she wanted. Natsume was so sure. In that unemotional voice, Natsume heard the ups and downs of the relationship.

Without data of life and intelligence in the future, what kind of inspiration does the person she is pursuing? What kind of inspiration does the back of the person she is looking at give her?

[Originally, I was just a monster guarding the "Knight Dragon Castle", but the appearance of the master gave me a great change in life. I believe Lord Natsume had discovered it a long time ago. In fact, I cannot move to the upper level.]

Whether it is NPC or AI, if you go up the upper level like players, it will definitely violate the rules of this world.

What if the top-level waves have some wisdom, what if the thing destroys the room and comes to the lower level? Therefore, Ain Grandet has insurmountable rules.

[Once you move to the upper level, your teleportation magic array will be broken down. In the words of the master, the data will collapse.]

What the master said?

So that's what Sophieli said is not the monster of this world or the set npc, but—

Real, human? Perhaps there is no mistake to players.

[But the master said so, even if he could not escape this layer of constraints, he still had many things that he could obtain, that sky, this land, the human beings full of voluntary life, and the memories of the past.]

That was the comfort given to her by the human being, but there was nothing wrong with giving a virtual life body a living life is more appropriate than explaining it with lies and using "commitment".

This is the promise given to her by Sophiely's master, which promises the beauty of the world.

[Therefore, when I made a mistake, even if I received guidance from my master, I could not move forward through my master's back. I kept following my master, constantly shaking my wings, and trying hard to follow my master.]

The child who had no goals followed closely behind the adults, Sophie needed someone to guide her.

She has wisdom but lacks sensibility;

She has talent but lacks use;

She has dreams, but lacks progress.

Sophieli kept chasing the end of her dream in her master's back.

Natsume knew about it, and had already figured out why Sophieli deceived herself—

That's it.

[That is the target I have been looking for since my master was killed and cursed.]

Maybe the master was not killed, but left by himself.

Therefore, her master will leave the last thing with "death", that is, to give Sophiely's goal.

That person's wife might be just a lie, and the things Sophiely told herself were also part of this lie.

So, what is the reason for doing this? In addition to what Sophieli has pursued, she also brought to her, no, herself, what did she bring to herself and both of them.

[I have been waiting for the next day, and have been waiting for the past few hundred years. I believe that the master's death must be a scam, a trial given by the master, a trial of up to a hundred years.]

After hearing this, Natsume realized that Sophie had been pursuing for so long that what she had been pursuing was just a dream.

but.

Natsume was not finished hearing Sophiely's words.

[The ‘Spiritorial Cemetery’ in the north of the 37th floor seems to have something left by the master. Although I am not clear below, I believe it must be a treasure.]

What is left behind? The treasure left by the disappeared player?

Natsume didn't know what it was, but she was very interested in it.

[Ah, time is coming, I have to catch up with you. The night tonight is beautiful.]

With a little sob, it was like welcoming the end of humanity.

[Next, let me tell you the last sentence. In just three days, I have made me live a very happy life. Therefore, if Lord Natsume hears these words, it means that Sophie has given up pursuing her dreams because she wants to follow Lord Natsume all the time, but it is no longer possible. At the end, I still want to cry.]

But.

【Sir Natsume, what is tears?】

Ding! After the message recording crystal was completed, the slightly lit crystal immediately dimmed.

Really.

Release the urn and the message recording crystal that had nothing in his hand, Natsume lifted his right hand and partially blocked his eyes with his arm.

The horizon is dark.

Really.

He bit his lip, and for Sophiely's words, Natsume's throat was stuck with something.

It's hard to breathe, it's painful but happy.

Really.

It's all at the end, why do you still say this?

Isn’t this for me to forget?

In the past, I was alone, but others said "I want to follow you all the time" and it was completely impossible to calm down.

So.

Sitting up from the bed, Natsume looked at the night sky outside, the same sky where Sophie once soared.

Is the Thirty-Seventh-Level thing about Sophiely?

Thinking of this, Natsume held the sword beside the bed and rushed towards the portal.

This layer of waves, I solved it myself. (To be continued, please search for Piaotianwen, novels are better, updated and faster!
