"Su Li, hurry up and talk about how the Princess’s married life is going."
"Is she living a happy and fulfilling life with the Prince...."
"I guess she’s recently been facing the most challenging mother-in-law issues of all time, which is why she wrote to her family feeling upset...."
"But as long as there is love, all difficulties will be resolved...."
These outsiders started guessing one by one about the potential issues the new Princess might be facing.
Su Li was a bit torn about whether to tell them the truth that they might not want to hear.
After hesitating for just a second, Su Li decided she had to tell them.
Before these little cuties could ask any further, Su Li, in the quickest and most concise way, shared everything she knew.
"The Princess, from a common background, is having a horrible time."
"The Prince has an affair with a beautiful Sea Princess."
"But this Sea Princess is not human; she’s a monster from the sea."
"She not only regarded all humans as food, but before she had a chance to act against us, she had already devoured a mermaid."
"As a result, she couldn’t eat us and instead delivered herself into the arms of Death."
"Now the Princess has drastically changed, resorting to forcefully coercing the Prince, but it seems to be working quite well; the Prince has become somewhat obedient."
From the moment Su Li started speaking, Si and the others were just not okay.
Especially the girls, the things they least tolerate in their dictionary are: infidelity, fickleness, transformation.
And the Prince encapsulated them all.
They thought they were being served sweet treats, but this turned out to be a dessert mixed with crap.
And what about the mermaid not even showing up?
Or being eaten by a shark—what kind of devilish plot twist is that?
Love causing tears, and the manipulative girlish behaviors turning into advocates for domestic violence; what kind of development is that?
It truly makes the listener sad and the hearer cry.
This is heartbreaking...
Mommy, I will never believe in the sweet memories of childhood again; they’re all lies meant to deceive kids.
Rourou and Yanyan, along with a few other girls, stared intensely at Su Li, breaking into tears.
It made outsiders think that Su Li had done something terrible to them.
"I, I want to go home..."
"I want to go home too."
When they knew the little girl was a selfish girl, they didn’t cry.
When they knew the Princess was a scheming girl, they remained silent.
But knowing that the Prince was a jerk, and that the sea’s mermaids were man-eaters, not to mention being eaten by the shark before they even appeared...
This shock was too much for their fragile hearts.
They came here to spectate a supposedly energized sweet affair, not to be tortured.
It was reality albeit, but they had not been sweetened to; they had indeed trodden a path of shattered glass.
Speaking of physical and emotional torment, no place could rival Fairy Tale Town of Fantasy World.
"Hey, you’re heading back already, huh? Well, I won’t see you off then...."
Si, Anian, and a few other boys looked infuriated beyond containment, glaring at Su Li, then without a word, took the hands of several girls and departed in the opposite direction.
It was unclear where they went, even foregoing several days’ wages.
Unexpectedly, the lady boss didn’t inquire either; it seemed she had foreseen their departure and understood it all too well, instead calling Su Li aside.
She hesitated for a moment before saying, "You’re just like them, different from us...."
As the words escaped her, the lady boss annoyed pulled at her hair, fearing Su Li might not fully comprehend, paused briefly, organized her thoughts quickly, and then continued, "Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying you’re like those outsiders... rather, you know some magic that we don’t, as recorded in the ancient notes left by my ancestors...."
"When the Pioneers wake before dawn, she will be accompanied by special and superpowers, she will lead us out of darkness...."
Su Li gazed intently at the ancient notebook the lady boss handed her, reading aloud each sentence written in red ink.
The lady boss’s eyes were intense as they fixated on Su Li, "Based on my observations and intuition, I believe... you are the one, which is why I have kept you close to me."
"Indeed, your presence has confirmed what’s written in this book...."
To others, the notebook held in the lady boss’s hand appeared to be an ancient book, long from a bygone era.
Yet, to Su Li, it was a bug, a deeply hidden flaw.
Su Li couldn’t help but speculate that perhaps the original owner of her current body wasn’t the first to notice something amiss.
Maybe during the repeated restarts of Fairy Tale Town, other Observers had surfaced, only to have their memories wiped by the system.
Yet, they managed to discover this flaw, continually reminding those who came after them to seek new Observers....
Su Li looked deeply at the lady boss, maybe among those persevering Observers included the lady boss herself, who just didn’t remember.
Su Li shook her head, saying, "I am not the person you are looking for...."
The hope in the lady boss’s eyes quickly turned bleak, withering swiftly.
This world naturally had its own fortuitous occurrences; she wouldn’t rashly intervene in its evolutionary process.
Forcing it to independently evolve into a true small world was akin to trying to help the shoots grow by pulling them upward, not necessarily beneficial for the entire world.
However, she now understood why the original owner had died mysteriously and knew about the existence of a larger world outside; she lost the desire to stay here any longer.
She was curious about what kind of divine technology could create a small world on the brink of developing its independent consciousness.
It undoubtedly could be considered the Creator’s ability.
Even the technologically advanced interstellar Universal Alliance she had passed through wasn’t this impressive.
She was also unsure if increasing her pace would help her catch up with Si and the others.
And whether the group of Little Cuties would be happy or surprised to see her...
Just the thought was quite exciting.
Whether they would be happy or surprised wasn’t really an issue, but shock and astonishment were inevitable.
In a space filled entirely with white, Si and the others were trying to calm their emotions, but when they looked up, they saw someone from Fairy Tale Town who shouldn’t be there.
Their faces looked as if they had seen a ghost, and their mouths were gaping wide enough to fit an egg.
"....how are you here?"
Su Li greeted them cheerfully and said, "Thinking back to our days together, I feel like we really hit it off, so... I’ve decided to stick with you guys after all...."
