◇◇◇

The instant she heard that truth, a crack appeared in the teacup in the Saintess's hand.

"Th-this... this... How is this possible? I know! They must be saving Contract Stones! Right now, they must be searching for Contract Stone chests in Saint Rite, preparing to pull my main body from the gacha before coming to find for the main story!"

"Didn't you say there were many players like that in Version 1.0? It must be like that!"

The Saintess's hand trembled as she brought the teacup to her lips and took an elegant sip.

Griff said nothing.

If that were really the case, it would be wonderful.

Then ca the fourth day.

It was raining.

They did not co.

The Saintess sat in the garden, in the rain, for an entire day.

The fifth day was cloudy.

They did not co.

The sixth day was sunny.

It was as if they did not exist at all. Even though their status clearly showed that they were online the entire ti, they had vanished from every corner of Oath.

On the seventh day.

Finally, on the seventh day, the Saintess realized a terrifying fact.

They were not coming anymore!

You people are not thinking of skipping , are you? My strength is far greater than the previous limited character, Hasumi!

"Griff?"

After waiting bitterly for seven full days, the Saintess turned her head to look at her guard.

Her guard shook his head sowhat helplessly, then told the Saintess an even crueler truth.

"For these seven days, they have been in this world the entire ti. Even when they occasionally left, it was only for a few hours."

In other words, they had been online the entire ti.

If they had searched hard, Saint Rite's treasure chests could have been cleared in a single day, right?

Then what were they playing while they were online?

That was right.

Carl was also very curious about what they had been doing over these seven days.

So Carl shifted his vision back to Ryan's worldline.

During these seven days, the mbers of Crimson Sigil and Navigator basically logged in every day, played Monster Battles or Oath Cards, then logged off.

Oath Version 1.1's main story?

Pulling on the banner?

What were those?

They did not exist!

Until today, after Crimson Night won a round using a Thief lineup, she felt that she really could not keep playing every day like this.

Her fans were all urging her in private ssages to hurry up and update her Oath Version 1.1 story analysis and explanation.

"It's about ti to get to work. If I keep playing, I'll miss the version hype," Crimson Night said as she stood up from the chess table.

Are you sure there is still any so-called version hype when the new version has already been live for seven days?

That was what Carl thought.

Seeing Crimson Night leave her seat, Ryan even kindly reminded her.

"I saw that the story for Version 1.1 is pretty controversial online this ti. The reviews are mixed, and people say there are a lot of landmines."

"Ryan, you should know that I've always been very tolerant toward ga stories."

Crimson Night really was very tolerant toward ga stories.

Crimson Night could even give Oath Version 1.0's story a passing score.

Surely Version 1.1's story could not be even worse than Version 1.0, right?

Hello. Yes, it could.

When Carl saw that Crimson Night wanted to return to her own world, he hurriedly made a gesture to follow her.

"Miss Crimson Night, can you let co along for this main story?"

Like Crimson Night, Carl had also been holding back and had not watched what exactly happened in Version 1.1's main story.

The main reason was that Carl wanted to see the genuine reaction of a story-focused player like Crimson Night.

"Of course. Speaking of which, I'm also very curious about you, Carl. After the main story ends, let's have a private chat."

Crimson Night spoke softly to Carl, as if she were sizing up so rare creature.

A ta-type character like Carl was still far too rare in this world.

If Crimson Night had not been so busy during this period, she really would have wanted to properly chat with Carl and dig deeply into the story behind him.

Faced with Crimson Night's proactive invitation, Carl naturally did not refuse.

After Crimson Night returned to her own main world, she directly added Carl to her party.

Then Crimson Night headed to the location where this main quest could be accepted, the garden at the academy entrance.

The Saintess had sat in that garden and waited bitterly for a full seven days.

When her secondary consciousness reminded her that Crimson Night, the powerful player ranked second in Extre Abyss, had arrived, the Saintess had the urge to cry from emotion.

She ca!

Finally, one ca!

A top-tier Savior!

The Saintess imdiately switched her main consciousness to Crimson Night's worldline.

Crimson Night looked at the Saintess waiting in the garden and walked forward sowhat awkwardly, intending to greet her.

But the Saintess could no longer hold herself back. She ran all the way over and threw herself into Crimson Night's arms.

Mm...

Crimson Night was the perfect mature big-sister type.

Whether in reality or in the ga, her figure was extrely tall, visually around 1.77 ters.

"Lord Savior! I have waited for you for so long... I thought you would never co!"

At this mont, the Saintess really was so moved that she nearly cried.

"I had so things to deal with recently, so I ca late."

Crimson Night did not know whether this counted as a scripted performance, but with Version 1.1's main story starting like this, she actually felt it was pretty good and quite surprising.

As long as she ignored Hasumi's "I'll keep watching you! Always!" gaze from the party, which made her look like she was about to turn into a witch.

"Then, Lord Savior, do you have ti to investigate an incident in a small town near the academy with ?" the Saintess hurriedly entered the main story and asked.

After Crimson Night answered, "That is exactly why I ca," she officially entered the main story of Oath Version 1.1.

To be honest, in both Carl's and Crimson Night's eyes, the opening of Oath Version 1.1's main story was truly perfect. There was not a single flaw.

The player and the Saintess went to Saint Rite together, eating and drinking as if they were traveling.

The Saintess's lively, cute, and quirky personality was displayed to the fullest while they toured the town.

Just up to this point, Carl and Crimson Night could both give it full marks.

All right!

It was full of romantic atmosphere.

However, Carl knew that this romantic atmosphere was sothing left behind by the previous writer, Kuro.

In the very next second, the script revised by Koi began to show its power.

Noir from the villain faction, the Council of the End, appeared at that mont.

There was nothing wrong with the appearance itself.

When Crimson Night imdiately drew the longsword in her hand and prepared to face the enemy, her gaze t Noir's.

Then, in the next second, her vision went black.

Before Crimson Night could even figure out what had happened, she discovered that her body had been forcibly taken over by the system, and her vision had also been stripped away to simulate the effect of fainting.

Then a line of text popped up in the dialogue box, instantly maxing out her blood pressure.

"You fainted because you could not resist the powerful pressure coming from Noir..."

"???????? Huh?"

Crimson Night had been a story-analysis content creator for so many years and had watched so many ga stories, but this was the first ti she had been angered into laughter.

In the past, I was the Creator of Worlds, the Child of Light, the Lord of the Black Domain, and the One Blessed by the Gods!

What the hell is this Noir?

Taking ten thousand steps back and speaking only from Oath's own lore, the Savior possesses the power of the Seven Spirits, which can copy all elents.

Put an ability that broken on a toy, and even that toy could slaughter everything!

And this villain, who popped out from who knows where, just looks at , and I faint?

What kind of logic is that?

Co on, then!

Unlock this scripted loss for !

I'll fight you with one hand!

If you can beat , I'll count it as my loss!

Crimson Night was now so angry that she was practically rolling around on the ground like a madwoman.

Unfortunately, because the plot required it, she simply could not move.

Carl looked at Crimson Night, who was rolling all over the ground like a bug trying to break through the system's restraints, and felt that this was only the beginning of the landmines in Version 1.1's main story.

Next, it would depend on whether Carl's side story could heal her.

Incidentally, Carl also felt that after the side story, it would be ti for him to cut ties hard with those lunatics on the Oath production team.

(To be continued.)
