Genshin Impact: After entering the card pool, I kicked away the knife and stabbed myself

"What is this place?"

"Luo?"

In the dim and narrow space, Ying called Luo's name but got no response.

So she had no choice but to walk towards the only place where she could move forward - the spiral stairs. She kept going up the stairs, and at first she moved forward slowly and uneasily. However, as the height continued to rise, Ying's heart, which had not yet reached the end, began to beat harder and harder, making her extremely uneasy.

Ying quickened her pace, she wanted to reach that place as soon as possible.

Her heart told her that there was something very important waiting for her to find out.

An unknown amount of time had passed, but Ying climbed countless steps almost tirelessly, and finally reached the top floor of this building, which was most likely a tall tower.

Ying pushed open the door and found that it was a mysterious and spacious palace, the size of which was breathtaking. However, the interior of the palace was extremely simple, with almost no extra decorations, and even the natural light from the outside could not completely penetrate the heavy windows and sprinkle into this dim space.

In this hazy darkness, an uncovered black coffin was parked in the center of the palace, which was particularly eye-catching.

Ying approached cautiously, feeling a strong sense of uneasiness and premonition. When she finally saw the figure lying on the coffin, she felt like she was struck by lightning.

"elder brother!"

Ying cried out in grief, her voice trembling uncontrollably.

She knelt beside the coffin and gently, almost tremblingly, touched the face above her with her hands.

The cold skin sent a piercing chill through the fingertips, mercilessly telling Ying a cruel fact: Kong was dead.

"No, that's not right. This is the emptiness of this world..."

"Yes and no. If you really do nothing, your brother will always end up like this."

Luo's voice sounded behind Ying, and Ying turned around in disbelief.

"how come!"

"Don't you understand yet? You didn't travel to a so-called parallel world at all. This is the past before everything was restarted~"

Ying's eyes widened in disbelief. Seeing this, Luo continued, "Since you are the person I care about in the future, I will not hide it from you. How should I tell you? For us Nightmare Spiders, there is only one possibility for the same self. In thousands of parallel worlds, we are the 'only one'."

"So... no matter how you travel through time and space, as long as you see the existence of 'Luo', that is the 'Luo' you know."

"But we also have a distinction in time. However, for the Nightmare Spider, time is only linear. The Nightmare Spider will not be affected by time... unless she does so on purpose."

"Normally, if someone travels through time, I will be able to sense it and even stop it before that happens. Even if I don't stop it, after that person travels through time, the me at that time will be able to transfer my memories to my past self."

"But then, the timeline will continue again. After all, time is linear for us. As for you, I can feel the power of at least two different timelines of me in you, and they didn't choose to send their memories back to me."

"So, my future self needs to close the time loop. After thinking about it, I guess the only way is..."

Luo said, pointing to the empty space in the coffin.

"so……"

"You need to go back to a time when I have not arrived without being affected by my power, and then save your brother."

Ying, who was shocked by the news Luo told her, took a long time to calm down before saying again: "What should I do?"

"You shouldn't ask me this question, just ask yourself. When you have the opportunity to make a choice, don't let yourself regret it."

After saying that, Luo's figure turned into Wendy's again.

Ying was a little surprised, not knowing what Luo was doing: "You are..."

"Wendy" showed Luo's smile again: "Because I am using Barbatos' body now~ After all, I haven't been separated from my original body at this time."

"Come on, little one. With all the time authority in this world and my wisdom, I will let you go back to the past. You'd better be able to achieve everything you want. Otherwise, if time does not form a closed loop, the fate of the world will begin to extend. After all, I did not use my power to facilitate your return. Even the time of return is the time before I came."

Seeing Ying seemed to understand, Luo stretched out his index and middle fingers, poked Ying's head, and said, "That is to say, you will lose everything - not including me. Although you will still meet new familiar people, they are no longer the people you know. The people you knew before will still be on the original timeline. You have completely lost a good friend named Ying... or more."

Ying also clearly realized the seriousness of the matter. She nodded seriously: "I will."

As Ying responded, Luo's eyes turned into golden clock pupils, and a huge clock appeared behind the green poet, and "Because of You" also appeared in front of Ying, emitting a faint pink light, causing some cherry blossoms to fall.

The hands on the huge golden clock began to rotate counterclockwise at a faster speed than the last time Ying saw it, making it almost impossible for Ying to see where the hands were.

Looking at the rotating pointer, Ying's consciousness gradually became blurred and she closed her eyes.

After Ying disappeared, the hands of the clock gradually stopped moving, and Luo returned to his original appearance.

"To make such a big fuss, my future self... I really think highly of her."

“It’s hard to understand.”

"Forget it. Since it's my future self, I'll just believe it for now."

"What kind of fun will I find in the future that makes me make such a decision? It's really exciting~"

I will post a chapter as soon as I finish writing it. If I don’t post it, it means I haven’t finished writing it yet. For example, this chapter was written at around 2 a.m. and I posted it directly. (
