I'm afraid "turning over every #inch of #land in Langqiu" is not a #feasible #strategy. In other words, I'm #indispensable for what you're about to do.

00:00It looks like this is it.
00:13I see, it looks like those grand halls.
00:21A decadent feudal territory.
00:25It's nothing, just some name from Earth.
00:29Miss Lima, she should be in the depths of these corridors, sleeping.
00:37Don't think you've arrived just yet.
00:54Take the path.
01:17It's not an illusion, this place is.
01:24I knew it.
01:44That was close, I didn't expect such a sneaky trick.
01:50Are you referring to the monster, or us being maced?
01:54Maced?
01:56Fine, it seems that repeating it twice didn't make everyone realize how weird this place is.
02:01By the way, the emergency evacuation spell I put on didn't work either.
02:06Well, it's free, I hope everyone understands.
02:09Didn't I say that this place is unapproachable? I didn't usually get to see it, let alone anticipate any traps.
02:19So are we stuck here? It doesn't feel very real.
02:28Helia seemed to be in a trance, staring into space with a dazed expression.
02:34After Cradie called out to her, she suddenly shuddered all over and turned to look at her.
02:44She said the masquerade corridor, as its name suggests, is a maze created by Thelema the Troop, Pleasure.
02:52She?
02:54Could it be Sara?
02:57She won't let me admit it.
03:00It's okay, admitting that is an acknowledgement already.
03:06Let Helia listen to what she has to say first.
03:10She said she sent us a message because she didn't want the game to be too unfair.
03:15The function of the shadows and the corridor are designed to trap us here.
03:20Before we realized the problem, the corridor would try to secretly trap us, and then the shadows would come out to distract us for the corridor to secretly change structure again.
03:30Helia, can you ask her why Sara didn't say anything before?
03:36She said it wouldn't be fair for Thelema.
03:39She added that we can safely leave this place with the troop's power, and she could only hint at it so much.
03:47She said that continued talking in my mind would leave some side effect of the Shrew of Union, then she stopped talking.
03:54Is that all?
03:56We can leave this place with the Shrew's power, but what if we don't have that kind of power?
04:02Sorry, the Shrew of Deception doesn't have a power she can apply directly.
04:08That's fine, we still have Unperception, although we need to rely on that so-called fair exchange.
04:15The price of that would probably be very high.
04:18You refuse to pay it.
04:21Lantern has reached the door.
04:23I'll go deal with her for a while, and you can figure out the solution yourself.
04:27It's okay, Thelema's power is also a Shrew's power.
04:30If you find her, you'll have a way to come out.
04:34I have to go now before time runs out.
04:37Meanwhile, outside the corridor, a person and a gun.
04:41I've heard a saying, a little strength can be put to a thousand uses, and once it's gone, all is done.
04:48So while there's still time, we might as well surrender too.
04:53No, I mean...
04:55You should face reality. Raising your hand and surrender would be better for both of us.
05:03I think that's what Lantern is trying to tell us.
05:09As the only one who can freely traverse Langqiu, Perception faced a dilemma.
05:18The destroyer of this realm, who no one can defeat, was now standing there casually, not even caring to lift a finger.
05:28Holding the name of destruction, she didn't need to indicate her intention.
05:33Merely the fact that she appeared somewhere carried a terrifying message.
05:43Whether it was the dangerous implications represented by her presence, or Donigri's own choice that led him to surrender and switch sides so easily, it's probably hard to say.
05:58First of all, both of us would have quite a hard time raising our hands.
06:05As for surrendering, I am but a gadget. I don't have any allegiances.
06:13Secondly, my world is a decoy. I believe my functions shouldn't conflict with the Shu.
06:22I'm afraid that depends on your choice.
06:28If it had eyes, it would certainly be glancing at the splendid corridor nearby, which was beyond its reach.
06:38So you're saying you aim to retrieve your other gun?
06:44That won't be necessary.
06:48Since the Lima hasn't awakened yet, I don't have to venture into her territory to borrow her power.
06:55I'll be honest with you, I'm here for you.
07:00She looked at the gadgets when saying those words.
07:03Coincidentally, her gaze pierced through Donigri, leaving behind an illusion that was in fact blind and ludicrous.
07:16So you finally realized.
07:19Chaotic situations call for hard measures. When it comes to power, I'm your best partner indeed.
07:36Is that Lito's dog?
07:39When did it learn to speak?
07:41I've said it hundreds of times, you really think I'm a dog?
07:49Yes, I do, but whatever.
07:52You...
07:55So you wish to talk to me alone?
07:58No wonder, had you decided against it, they wouldn't have had the chance to enter the corridor.
08:04Was it your plan all along to keep them trapped here?
08:07This only strikes me as a plan you would make show of destruction.
08:12I must keep my influence to the minimum before I fall into slumber again.
08:17In that sense, we share similarities.
08:20During my awakening, my functionality is more important than my own will.
08:25Moreover, what I'm about to do is not fitting for an outsider to see.
08:30So, to what end?
08:32What I'm about to do is not fitting for an outsider to see.
08:36So, to what do I owe this pleasure? My identity or my ability?
08:42This was a difficult question, but the answer came easily.
08:46That's why I said, I'm afraid that depends on your choice.
08:50Either way, take me to your creator.
08:55And let me be clear, I merely wish to make things easier.
08:59You can also choose not to cooperate.
09:02The other plan would be turn over every inch of the land of Langtiu, which is not that unacceptable to me.
09:10That sounds familiar, but surely it's better to work with me when it comes to this kind of stuff.
09:20You're clearly different from Donnigue. I fear this is just a negotiation tactic for you.
09:29But that's truly unnecessary.
09:32Even though it's not exactly beneficial for my will there, at the end of the day, I'm just a tool.
09:38I have no concept of refusal.
09:41That's for the best. Let's go.
09:44Wait a second. Tools may not know how to refuse, but they are all born with a function.
09:51If what you're going to do next will jeopardize Langtiu's stability,
09:56I'm afraid I won't be able to agree to any of your demands, whatever threats you may use.
10:03Stability?
10:07Though I'm not exactly comfortable with my identity, do you really believe a shrew would do anything to harm Langtiu?
10:17I'm not human, which means I also think differently.
10:21If you work backwards from the results, wouldn't it be right to say that only shrews are capable of things that harm Langtiu?
10:33You have a point.
10:36I have nothing to hide. I simply want to ascertain if they have awakened.
10:42Are you suggesting that the anomalies in Langtiu at present might be connected to my creator?
10:50No, I'm suspecting them all. Ajita is only one of them.
10:54In any case, I never have the patience to make plans, and I'm certainly short of time for explanation right now.
11:03Are we going or not? Yes or no?
11:07Lack of patience, I see. But to claim that the current situation is a coincidence,
11:14it's hardly believable that you'd be so lucky. A better way to explain it would be...
11:20You came for those guests, right?
11:23To you, only the power of the shrew could cause for the current anomalies in Langtiu.
11:28If any of them manage to escape from the corridor, you find it necessary to kill them.
11:33If it turns out to be the opposite, then all you have to do is wait here for a while, and I will easily fall into your hands.
11:41It's fairly commendable in terms of ease.
11:43Stop talking so much, show me the way.
11:46Of course, as you wish.
11:48But even if you brought about the current situation coincidentally, there's still one thing that you neglected.
11:55I'm afraid turning over every inch of the Langtiu is not a feasible strategy.
12:02In other words, I'm indispensable for what you're about to do now.
12:06Nevertheless, words can only take me so far. Please take my lead.
12:11That creature of mine was overly fastidious.
12:15The location she chose to rest eternally, or rather, her burial, would never be beneath the soil of the mortal place.
12:24Wait, aren't you gonna take me with you?
12:28Meanwhile...
12:54You've just come just in time. I'm gonna whack you up.
12:58You look really angry, Kareli.
13:02Getting lost, going in circles, fighting monsters. We've been repeating this forever. Aren't you angry?
13:10This place is a maze, and we can't find the way out. Does the lemur even want to be found?
13:18It's never easy to grasp what's in Ms. The lemur's mind.
13:23Maybe she lives by the code that says, all must submit to me.
13:29That's kind of ridiculous.
13:53We've defeated the monsters again, but we're not making any progress.
14:20If she wants us to submit to her, shouldn't she show herself first?
14:27She expects us to just kneel in front of the monsters.
14:30Maybe agitating us is, like, part of her plan.
14:35Super annoying.
14:37She's a noble woman, after all. She probably has her own lofty way of thinking.
14:42Speaking of which, this has been on my mind for a while. Why would she have the monster disguised as paintings? Is it just to scare us?
14:51No clue. Ms. Lemur has extensive interest, after all.
14:58That could be it.
15:01There are lots of paintings in the corridor, but not all will turn into monsters and attack us.
15:07What if the lemur is doing this to win us over so that we'll submit to her willingly?
15:15Then the clue to her whereabouts could be hidden in the real paintings.
15:28I knew it.
15:30This appears to be some kind of memory.
15:37Good morning, father.
15:39Good morning, mother.
15:41I finished reviewing yesterday's schoolwork, father. You may test my knowledge whenever it pleases you.
15:48Mother, I have also conferred with the servants regarding the afternoon tea party.
15:53From a young age, the lemur conducted...
15:57defeated her status as the eldest daughter of a noble family.
16:02The courteous and intelligent girl easily mastered all kinds of skills necessary for nobles.
16:08The adults of the family regarded her as a promising heiress.
16:12The servants knew another side of her.
16:15Mrs. Hart, the soup tasted different tonight.
16:19I remember mother saying she isn't fond of overly stimulating flavors.
16:24The new kids might have gotten it wrong. I'll get to the bottom of it. Now.
16:30Why are you still here, Roger? Have you forgotten about my father's schedule tomorrow?
16:36Sorry, miss. I'll get to polishing the writing gear right away.
16:38The new painting we bought would look better on the wall of the banquet hall.
16:43Sit with Ivy. Mother will be very pleased with you.
16:49As you wish, miss.
16:51When dealing with servants, you must exercise authority with most kindness and firmness.
16:57The lemur master also excused herself without any guidance.
17:01The lemur was trusted by the adults and obeyed by her servants.
17:04And her family was affluent and able among a bullet team.
17:08She had the freedom to follow her desires since a very young age.
17:12Of course, she's no ordinary girl.
17:15And her most extraordinary game remained a sense of refinement.
17:20Miss, I've prepared all the items you asked.
17:23Follow me. I decorate according to my instructions.
17:27Keep her his mimicking those held by her parents.
17:30Keep her his mimicking those held by her parents.
17:34Expositions for collection of novelties and unique arts ideas.
17:41Selima had a careful childhood driven by all kinds of capricious ideas.
17:47Until she became the heiress of the family.
17:55That was Selima recounting her own past.
18:00So everyone saw that?
18:03What can I say? People of status always have a thing with autobiographies.
18:08But the experience just now, isn't it similar to your master's treasure, Song Que?
18:14Or a poor man's version of it?
18:18Don't look at me. It's the first time I've seen something like this.
18:22If I have to say something about it,
18:26It works about the same as the replication we all experienced.
18:32I suppose it's driven by shadow or source.
18:35But the master's treasure works more like a reader of past experiences.
18:40What it reads depends on who activated it and what was placed in it.
18:45Like Selima said, this thing feels like a poor man's version of it.
18:49I think it's sort of like a phonograph belonging to the owner of the corridor.
18:53No matter who activates, they'll see the self-flattery left behind by Selima.
18:59Maybe it's not just self-flattery. There could be more to it.
19:03Like a password or code hidden.
19:07What a narcissist.
19:24Everyone, follow me.
19:33This way. Don't get lost.
19:44Let me tell you.
19:46Target locked.
19:53Let's go.
19:57Air Force!
20:02Watch out!
20:08Flash position!
20:18It's flying!
20:23It's flying!
20:35Everyone, follow me.
20:40Leave the enemies ahead to me.
20:49It's flying!
20:53It's flying!
20:59I think she wants us to choose one of the four doors.
21:04Look at the symbol on the door.
21:06I told you it's thinking of a narcissist.
21:09Symbol.
21:12Are you saying that Selima has hidden the hint somewhere in her autobiography?
21:19Yeah, she just wants us to know every detail of her life.
21:23That's probably an exaggeration.
21:26If this is Ms. Selima's hint, then I can say she doesn't care much about her past for sure.
21:35Like this symbol here, I don't think it's closely related to that story.
21:39The sense of propriety it conveys is probably what Ms. Selima meant when she said,
21:44Nobles must do as they please.
21:48I know you've received some perks from her, but no need to lay it on so thick with compliments.
21:54From what we know now, at least Selima is pretty easy to understand,
21:58so it takes some verification to be sure of that.
22:02Yeah, let's go through this door and see what lies ahead.
22:18A page from Sarah Palm's diary.
22:20Year.
22:22Month.
22:24Day.
22:26Weather.
22:28Today's group reading session was fun.
22:30We sat together and talked about ourselves.
22:32We talked about happy things, sad things, troubling things, all sorts of things.
22:37I hope you enjoyed it.
22:38I'll see you next time.
22:39Bye.
22:48Never have I felt so close to their hearts.
22:50They said they want to come to my group reading session again.
22:53Since that strange event happened, I haven't seen them smile so genuinely.
22:57Today, I learned that understanding each other is already helpful.
23:02Year.
23:03Month.
23:05Day.
23:06Weather.
23:09I did another thing that made them happy today.
23:13In the group session,
23:14No, they said calling it a mutual aid session was more accurate.
23:17Atao told me her problem.
23:19I didn't really understand why she hesitated when she knew what she wanted to do.
23:23Everyone would their thoughts, and I think Atao came around.
23:27She left with a smile on her face.
23:29That made me happy too.
23:31When sharing with everyone, our troubles flew away and our happiness multiplied.
23:36It felt as if our hearts were connected.
23:40Year.
23:41Month.
23:42Day.
23:44Weather.
23:47Today was saddening.
23:48Amei came to the mutual aid session.
23:50She's Atao's twin sister.
23:52She was sad.
23:53Was it because of Atao's choice?
23:55This is puzzling.
23:56If Atao is doing what she wants and Amei loves her sister, why did she cry?
24:01My books say sometimes if you help some people, you'll hurt others.
24:05Is this the only way?
24:07No, it's definitely because they don't understand each other enough.
24:11There must be a way to make everyone happy.
24:13I need to think.
24:16Year.
24:17Month.
24:18Day.
24:20Weather.
24:23Today's mutual aid session didn't work out.
24:25Strange events have become common lately.
24:28They're said to be caused by shadows.
24:30Everyone was scared, and neither reading nor talking could comfort them.
24:34But that was all I could do.
24:37How can I help everyone?
24:39When I was thinking,
24:40I instinctively lit up the lanterns in the room.
24:43In every mutual aid session,
24:45we would have heart-to-heart talks in a room with six-pointed lanterns burning.
24:49Older man said six-pointed,
24:51or Rikushutsu
24:53actually means snowflakes.
24:55I love this name.
24:56A person's thoughts and wishes are like snowflakes,
24:59in that they are light and fluffy,
25:01but can form a mountain of snow if accumulated.
25:04As long as our hearts are connected,
25:06we will find a way to overcome fear and unease.
25:08The question is, how?
25:12Year.
25:13Month.
25:15Day.
25:17Weather.
25:20The library is still empty today.
25:22Before I realized it,
25:23I've taken to lighting up the six-pointed lanterns when I think.
25:27It's like having everyone help me think.
25:30But when I contemplated today,
25:32I was unusually absorbed in my thoughts,
25:34and my thoughts were unusually muddled.
25:37It felt strange, warm even,
25:39like hugging someone,
25:41or my mind merging with another's.
25:43The master of the other mind,
25:45if I recall correctly,
25:47frequented my mutual aid sessions.
25:50Yeah, if we unite our minds,
25:52we can all understand each other
25:54and never fear each other again.
25:56This must be the answer that leads to happiness.
25:59I think I finally know what I need to do.
26:06The End
26:18Hey, what's with that indifferent look on your face?
26:21That's who you talk to.
26:26Yeah, I'm talking to you.
26:28Stand up straight and show some respect.
26:33Yeah, that's right.
26:34Take a good look and see whose territory this is.
26:39Whose territory, you say?
26:42And don't forget it.
26:45This area belongs to Giuseppe, the Shadow King,
26:48possessing the majesty of an eagle,
26:51the righteousness of a wolf,
26:53the sharpness of a leopard,
26:54and the strength of a bear.
26:56Show some respect when passing through here.
27:00Uh, may I ask,
27:03who is the person you're talking about?
27:07Such imprudence.
27:09I, Giuseppe,
27:11I'm the undisputable king of this street.
27:14Don't mistake me for those punk kids
27:16who pick fights with their moms
27:18and pretend to be tough guys when they're upset.
27:22That's right.
27:24This time, I'll make sure that annoying woman,
27:27Giulia,
27:28knows those words carry more weight.
27:34Oh.
27:36I've said it once,
27:38and I'll say it again.
27:40My name is Giuseppe,
27:42and I'm the boss around here.
27:44Don't you forget it.
27:47Uh, frightened, are you?
27:50What a scaredy cat.
27:52I won't hurt you.
27:54I, I apologize, okay?
27:58Is that enough?
28:16Uh-huh.
28:34Breaking through is also a part of fitness.
28:46Shh.
