Transcript
00:00What do you feel when you stare into the light?
00:13Do you well up with a longing or suddenly realize your insignificance?
00:25At this moment, at least for this girl, the answer was not complicated.
00:31Adina, did we pull it off?
00:37This fraudulent creation is undeniable proof that the deed is done.
00:43Your question would be better posited as a statement.
00:50I just wanted to double check for Lantern.
00:53I see she's holding it in for a while.
00:58The only one holding it in is you.
01:00Don't use me as an excuse.
01:08The fraudulent creation, it may appear a bit tacky at first glance, but in terms of practicality,
01:18it's enough to make us breathe a sigh of relief after that ordeal.
01:23I certainly hope so.
01:25Uncle Lee tells this isn't a time to be bitter and resentful.
01:29I'll say we're no longer worried about the chain of shadows for long.
01:33Two has found his own path for survival.
01:35We have ensured the tragedy of Minghai and Baiyu will not repeat itself.
01:40Sighs of relief would be the understatement for the century long fame.
01:47Despite knowing fully well everyone's nature here, you still consider what we've done righteous.
01:55Your eyes of deception has reached a whole new depth.
01:59You heard her.
02:03If you have something to say, Uncle Bai, just say it.
02:10After a long silence, the unparalleled first of the seven shrews still had not uttered so much as a word to break the stagnant air.
02:24He remained in place, shifting his gaze from the shadow beneath the anchor and instead turning towards the perplexed Song Que.
02:35Master.
02:38Even though the girl considers herself well-versed in human nature, she found his continent inscrutable at this moment.
02:48But perhaps the same could be said for herself.
02:53Now?
03:08I'm sorry.
03:18Wait, what are we doing at Amber Street?
03:22Weren't we just facing off against Lantern?
03:29Oh right, Master propped out of nowhere earlier, and then...
03:35Maybe Baiyu thinks it's time for everyone to pay the piper.
03:42It seems that during these past hundred years, you've committed numerous direct violations to your master's teaching.
03:51There's no need dragging me through the mad upper pool for nothing.
03:54I was just startled by you.
03:59Well, talking behind someone's back is a bad habit and perception.
04:05Anyway, Master stepping in explains why Saha and Therapalm suddenly disappeared during the fight against Lantern.
04:13It was him who brought Saha Palman, Kalima, back and put an end to that battle.
04:23What about Entropy and the others? Did Master send them back to Oxia?
04:30Quite true, they were powerless against the anomalies here from the start.
04:37That's a shame.
04:42They missed out on witnessing my awesomeness when I bore down and got serious. A great loss for them.
04:52Nevertheless, thanks to Baiju's intervention, all of the nominal Seven Shoes have now gathered in Amber Street.
04:59The result may be pleasing, but the process was far from elegant, especially for a certain dog that I temporarily let off its leash.
05:08Of course, from my perspective, there's only one possibility behind it all.
05:14Baiji is getting anxious.
05:17Even a dog will panic when seeing such a massive shadow sphere.
05:22But most people in Langqiu are not.
05:25What do you propose they do? Come together, cry their heart out, and make the sphere even bigger?
05:32At the very least, they shouldn't treat it as a casual topic of conversation.
05:38Who do you think we are, and who's leading us? In a while, it might not even be a topic of conversation.
05:45But hearing you saying that, I'm actually curious about how everyone is holding up. Is it too late?
05:53It's not too late.
05:56Baiji has arranged for us to have some free time. If you want to go shopping, feel free.
06:03It's no fun to go alone.
06:06As she spoke, she reached out to her longtime faithful companion.
06:12Come on, let's stick together like the good old days.
06:26Ah, Master Song Que. There was something I was hoping you could help me with.
06:32Sounds strange. He usually tenses up whenever he sees me.
06:37Sounds strange. He usually tenses up whenever he sees me.
06:41Cause he's afraid I might trick him. But now he's so eager.
06:47Sure, sure, go ahead.
06:50Can you pass on a message to that woman who alone keeps the lantern name alive?
06:58Ask her if she's interested in collaborating with the Great Horology House to launch a vintage-style watch reminiscent of the Lantern Organization.
07:10It's just an idea I was tossing around in my mind. If you find it heckless, forget what I said.
07:18Why would I do that? I have no reason to turn down such a fine offer.
07:26As you can see, all the seven shoes are here now, so it might be better to collaborate with them all to make commemorative watches.
07:36But first, since I came up with the business idea, the inception model should be more unique.
07:43Preferably one that people fall in love with at first sight and will never want to take off.
07:48Yes, yes, I'll do my best.
07:56Master Song Que, Master Song Que, our shop has recently introduced a new dish. Would you like to give it a try?
08:04There's no minimum spending requirement this time, is there?
08:08Oh no, this one is on the house. All it asks is that you take a photo with me after you finish your meal.
08:18And you plaster that photo on the wall and caption it, Deception's favorite noodles.
08:26Exactly. Uh, no, I just enjoy capturing the satisfied smiles of our customers.
08:36Since you put it that way, take as many photos as you want. Ideally, take enough to cover the entire wall.
08:46Oh, just slapping them on the wall haphazardly would be a waste. If you don't mind, I could include them in our promotional flyer.
08:55Clever. My goodness, you're better at running a business than I am.
09:01After a while, Pasta's photography skills are at their peak. By the time he finishes, my stomach is about to explode.
09:32Warriors, show your strength. Drive away the shadows from Lang Qiu's guise.
09:42I've seen lines like this in a million comics. It's so unoriginal.
09:50Song Que, you do bad again.
09:54When you shave the string, you're gathering all the shadows in straight long chill.
10:03Sorry, but I have to correct you. It's great. Now, straight.
10:10Since everyone wants to hear it, passively listening is not enough. You must take these words to heart and remember them.
10:19If anyone asks in the future, you must shout it out loud and tell them that.
10:26This is the true of deception. Master's just mantra.
10:31All right. You got the spirit. Okay, let's get started.
10:35All the shadows in the great long chill, heed my command.
10:41Give off a bit of light and perception just for show.
10:44Cool.
10:49I can't remember the last time you were popular like that.
10:55Even if we did kind of borrow Master's influence, it's not a bad idea to experience it again, especially at a time like this.
11:19Oh, I see. You prefer this position.
11:32Duo.
11:40Hey, Zaha and Donigue.
11:50Didn't anybody ever teach you to talk?
11:53But this isn't your home, Donigue.
12:00Unless you're from any place where you're happy enough to expose your belly in your home.
12:09What did you say?
12:12Duo, it's not nice to needle others, and it's not right to have Gui fight for you either.
12:21How many times do I have to tell you? It's an embodiment of the full of shadows, the ultimate form of sacrifice.
12:29Don't sell this good name with these imposter appellations.
12:35If you don't like Gui, then how about big bro?
12:41Donigue's big bro. I bet that's more to your liking.
12:49Who would want to be called that?
12:52If Zana were here, she'd speak highly of your dog training talent.
12:57You and Miss Belima really do think alike. Miss Belima gave me a similar compliment earlier.
13:04When she said dog training, she might not mean what I did.
13:12Let's move past this topic and get to Miss Belima.
13:15Why isn't she here? Does she think she's too good for this place?
13:19Before she finished speaking, the girl noticed an inconsistency.
13:24Based on her understanding of Belima, if there was something she didn't like or approve of, even the servants would have been instructed to steer clear.
13:34In Belima's eyes, what seemed to others to be an unreasonable demand was to her merely a pursuit to higher quality of life, nothing else.
13:51Xiaosuola, the dessert Miss Belima recommended must be delicious.
13:59It sure is. Do you want some?
14:04They say most people have a separate stomach entirely for desserts, but I'm not sure I'm up for another bowl. I just ate noodles that passed the shopper test.
14:19But Miss Belima said I should treat you to a dessert if I met you, and then bring you to the tailor shop.
14:31Is Miss Belima concerned that you'll find the tailor shop boring, so she asked you to bring Donigui here to cook?
14:42Yes, Miss Belima currently has no plan of leaving that place. If your only worry is not being able to finish the food, Duo and I will help.
14:57I'm not having someone else's saliva.
15:01Duo, there's nothing this Song Xue detests more than people who waste food, and I don't want to get on her bad side.
15:10Help me out, would you?
15:17Ah, fine, just this once.
15:21Alright, alright, we should listen to what little Sun has said. It won't be polite to turn her down anymore.
15:29Moreover, being able to enjoy desserts and while the day away with new friends is one of the ten joys of longqiu.
15:44And that's how the two of them, along with the gadget and the dog, spent a rather pleasant time in the beverage shop.
15:52Though the gadget didn't speak, the dog didn't admit the coming of a catastrophe, and neither did the two people notice any signs of the catastrophe.
16:11Shall we go meet Miss Belima?
16:17Yes, it's almost time for our appointment.
16:22We'd better hurry then.
16:27I read that if you swallow a mouthful of water in seven gulps, you'll stop hiccuping.
16:35But we don't have time to buy water.
16:38Don't hiccup, you will make fun of me again.
16:47Pit, did I make it?
16:53You made it just in time.
16:56Phew, great.
16:59But...
17:00Don't let it happen again, Little Que.
17:04Miss Belima is saying that by etiquette, you should've arrived early if you place any value on the meeting.
17:13Next time, I'll be sure to arrive early.
17:16No, come whenever called.
17:19That was great.
17:21I'm going to take a nap.
17:23Next time, I'll be sure to arrive early.
17:26No, come whenever called.
17:29That was great.
17:30You're even more like a dog than me.
17:40So, what is it that you wanted me for, Miss Belima?
17:45It's nothing.
17:46You can leave now.
17:48Miss Belima means that she just finished measuring you.
17:56So, rejoice, for you'll soon have new clothes to wear.
18:05Miss Belima means that I should keep my mouth shut.
18:11Then, I'll just excuse myself.
18:18And Perception, do you think there's something off about Miss Belima?
18:27She's always been a bit eccentric.
18:32You couldn't be any louder if you tried.
18:35If Miss Belima hears you, she'll give you an earful.
18:39Now that you mention it, should we punish Duo first?
18:41Now that you mention it, should we punish Duo first?
18:44He's the only one who could possibly leak information.
18:50And before that, I suggest you hightail it out of this place, cause...
18:55Hey, you little duck!
19:04Forget it.
19:05Our first order of business is finding a safe place to hide.
19:11Let's go.
19:22Lantern!
19:26Aren't you planning on running?
19:30Amber Street is my territory, and everyone's expecting the Seven Shoes to take care of that dark ball in the sky.
19:37If I lose my nerve and skirt around the street, causing that ball to growl for no reason, that'd be a shame.
19:45I'm the shoe of deception, after all, so I should at least act like it.
19:51Wait, you...
19:52Thank you.
20:00I often ponder this question.
20:02Why are humans always fascinated with games like staring at each other in silence?
20:09Lantern, you couldn't be waiting under this bridge just to ask me questions, could you?
20:16This is for you. It tastes similar to the one we used to eat over a decade ago.
20:22This is for you. It tastes similar to the one we used to eat over a decade ago.
20:43Ancient History of the Phoenix Continent, Part 1
20:48Preface
20:49The Phoenix Continent is the most significant origin of civilization in the world.
20:54From the birth of the Broad Kingdom dynasty to the arrival of the Great Eruption,
20:59according to historical records, this land has a civilization of 2,400 years.
21:05Yet, if we consider the Stone Age city-states along the Phoenix Lake Coast,
21:13that number will exceed 3,000 years.
21:17Regarding the civilization's origin, the Phoenix Continent has enjoyed unique advantages.
21:23Abandoned water resources in the Great Lake Basin,
21:27fertile loess soil fields extending for hundreds of paces,
21:34a climate with distinct and stable seasons,
21:37all of these are conducive to the primitive accumulation of early agriculture.
21:45The prosperity of agriculture stimulated the development of candy crafts,
21:50commerce, writing, and calendars,
21:54forming the internal positive cycle of early civilization.
22:00Ancient Times
22:02The Feng Dynasty, approximately 220 years before the Old Calendar to Year 1 of the Old Calendar.
22:11The Feng Dynasty is the first hereditary Broad Kingdom dynasty recorded in the history of the Phoenix Continent.
22:20It established the tradition of using the names of celestial constellations as the dynasty's codename.
22:28This tradition lasted until the Taiyi Empire nearly 1,900 years later.
22:34During this period, the material culture of the Phoenix Continent was in a transitional stage
22:42from the Late Leolithic Age to the Early Bronze Age.
22:48A common language across tribes had emerged with the advancement of trade activities,
22:55but the writing system was not yet mature.
23:01The Xin Dynasty, Year 1 of the Old Calendar to Year 351 of the Old Calendar.
23:08The Xin Dynasty was established by the trading tribes Yi in the eastern part of the Phoenix Continent.
23:16They overthrew the Feng Dynasty and established their own ruling system and dominant position,
23:23especially the epoch system of the Xin Dynasty was inherited by the subsequent Xing Dynasty,
23:31spreading gradually throughout the world with appropriate improvements
23:37and became the common calendar of modern society before the Great Eruption.
23:44During this period, the material culture of the Phoenix Continent entered the Bronze Age
23:51comprehensively and the artistic level of craftsmanship experienced a qualitative leap compared to the previous period.
24:00Furthermore, as the writing system matured, the common language of the Phoenix Continent
24:06began to spread beyond its borders through the trade activities,
24:11and the future world language had begun to take shape at this time.
24:16The Xin Dynasty, Year 351 of the Old Calendar to Year 660 of the Old Calendar.
24:24The Xin Dynasty was established by the farming tribe Tian in the western part of the Phoenix Continent.
24:32They overthrew the Xin Dynasty and relocated the political center of the dynasty from the central Jing to the western Ji.
24:43The ruling method of the Xin Dynasty was very different from that of the Xin Dynasty.
24:48They placed more emphasis on family and the contribution of agriculture to society.
24:54This, together with the trading nature of the Xin Dynasty,
24:59determined the diverse colors of the future culture of the Phoenix Continent.
25:06During this period, the progress of material culture on the Phoenix Continent
25:11was reflected in the population of technologies related to agriculture, handicrafts, and construction,
25:20thereby promoting the widespread prosperity of etiquette culture and art.
25:25Some of the most famous classics of the Phoenix Continent,
25:30such as Records of Ancient Times, Collection of Poetry, and Records of Etiquette,
25:37were all written during the Xin Dynasty.
25:55Greetings, are you here to play with the kitties?
26:00Oh, you've got some new coffee options here.
26:06Even if it's just to maintain the shop's revenue,
26:09no book cafe worth its salt would only offer instant coffee to customers.
26:19So I've taken it upon myself to develop a few new drinks,
26:22from ordinary black coffee to slightly more fancy concoctions.
26:27I'm no professional barista, but I'm quite confident in my skills,
26:32and the customers who try these new drinks praise them to the heavens.
26:41Alright, I'll just take that. Have a great day.
26:58What do you want?
27:04Where do you want to go?
27:06Wait for me.
27:17Where do you want to go?
27:19Wait for me.
27:22I'm not done yet.
27:25Wait for me.
27:31The party's about to start.
27:33I'll be on my way.
27:36I'm not tired of the party.
27:38I'm happy to be with you.
27:42One more round.
27:45On your knees.
27:47Back off.
27:50I'm not done yet.
27:55On your knees.
28:04Back off.
28:06Where do you want to go?
28:08Wait.
28:09Where do you want to go?
28:13On your knees.
28:16Back off.
28:19I'm not done yet.
28:21Wait for me.
28:27I'm not done yet.
28:30The party's about to start.
28:41You can't escape.
28:48Where do you want to go?
28:52Where do you want to go?
28:56I'll give them all to you.
29:04You can't escape.
29:09Right there.
29:15Right there.
29:21Right there.
