At this moment, though Iluna Beath felt the world spinning around her, her thoughts were crystal clear.
Despite typically following Shard and Luviya's plans, her wisdom was not low. Otherwise, after the battle of Pantanal, she wouldn't have been able to use the Sage's Glowstone to perform the Arcane Technique:
"Why does your simulated future not extend from the present?"
She questioned, even though Shard's non-existent future was just a game, she was terrified by it, a fear that surpassed the dread of the Unclassified Level Relic:
"Are you really 'If'? Tell me, why does Shard not exist!"
In the girl's harsh questioning, the light of the balance behind her became subtler and deeper.
The man slowly rolling up the parchment took a small step back without any visible expression:
"I am indeed 'If', and this is indeed not a simulation of 'future.' Even if you can view different versions of the script, how could any of them include the audience beneath the stage?"
