Kiana's Journey to All Worlds

Chapter 39

The two of them were so busy that they had to face each other.

Aha's laughter echoed in the space, making Xing and Kiana feel an inexplicable chill. They looked at each other and saw the confusion and vigilance in each other's eyes.

Xing frowned and asked, "Aha, what are the 'iron lump' and 'riddler' you mentioned? And who is the author of this novel?"

"Hahaha... Of course it's 'intelligence' and 'mystery', who else could it be? Hahaha..."

"Oh! Yes, yes, there's also that big mirror! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha "

Kiana looked at the mask in her hand, and a trace of thought flashed in her eyes.

Xing also nodded, indicating that she agreed with Kiana's opinion.

In fact, Kiana didn't care about this mask and the "Masked Fool" behind it. What she cared about more was what Aha just said about "the author of this novel"?

This reminded her of two years ago (for Kiana), when she was fighting Kevin on the moon with "Hersher of the Origin" Mei and "Hersher of Truth" Bronya, there were countless voices cheering them on, and those countless voices seemed to have turned into countless words, attacking Kevin... I remember Ai·HyperionΛ seemed to say that those voices came from countless parallel worlds...

Is it similar to this?

But why did Aha say "Go ask the author of this novel"?

Xing looked at Kiana who was thinking constantly, and couldn't help feeling a little curious. She walked to Kiana and asked softly, "Kiana, what are you thinking about? Did Aha's words remind you of something?"

Kiana came back to her senses and looked at Xing's concerned eyes. She took a deep breath and said her thoughts: "I'm wondering what Aha meant by 'the author of this novel'. Does it mean that our world, or our experience, is actually just a story written by someone else?"

After hearing this, Xing also fell into deep thought, and then his eyes suddenly became sharp.

"In fact, you, me and all this are characters in the second dimension! If we want to know the issues you care about, we have to go to the third dimension... Ouch~~"

Before Xing finished speaking, Kiana gently knocked her head with her fist.

"What kind of brain circuit are you thinking? Let's talk about serious things~"

Xing touched the knocked head and said a little aggrievedly: "I was just joking... Even if you ask me like this, I don't know..."

Kiana also sighed when she heard this.

She still cares about what happened in her hometown during the six years she lost, and how they are doing.

Now that she has seen the advanced beings of this world, there is still no news of returning home.

Kiana feels a little disappointed, but also a little expectant. She hopes that the star god of "intelligence", "mystery" and "memory" mentioned by Aha can give her some clues in the future.

As for what Aha said about "asking the author of this novel"...

Kiana said... should we give it a try?

Then, Kiana looked around at the empty space and asked tentatively: "Hello... Hello? Author?"

[...]

"No one answered... It's really fake..." Kiana thought so when she saw no one responded.

Xing was watching Kiana's operation

She was a little amused and shook her head gently, saying: "Kiana, even if the author really exists, he can't directly respond to our call. We have to think of other ways."

Kiana listened to Xing's words and felt that it made sense

. She nodded in agreement. In fact, she was a little scared. If this world was really created by just one person, then were her friends and family also fictional? Was everything she experienced planned? All fictional? Obviously, those feelings were so real, how could they be fake?

This idea made her feel an inexplicable fear.

However, Kiana shook her head and put the idea behind her.

"Forget it, Xing. There is no point in staying here. Let's go out first. They should be waiting anxiously outside."

"Well, okay." Xing nodded slightly.

"I will remove the reinforcement of your consciousness space now. When I go out, you should wake up."

However, just as Kiana was about to operate, a voice sounded from her head.

[Ahem... Hello, Kiana. 】

When Kiana heard the voice, she was startled and stopped what she was doing.

When Xing saw Kiana's hand hovering in the air, he was a little confused. Why did Kiana suddenly stop moving?

The reason was that Xing didn't hear the voice.

Xing waved his hand in front of Kiana's eyes.

"Kiana? What's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly stop moving?"

Kiana came back to her senses and looked at Xing's concerned eyes. She took a deep breath and suppressed the shock in her heart.

"It's okay, Xing. I suddenly thought of something and need to think about it for a while."

Xing nodded, without asking any more questions, just standing quietly aside, waiting for Kiana to finish thinking.

Kiana was immersed in the shock brought by the voice just now. She was full of doubts and curiosity. She didn't know who this "author" who suddenly appeared was. Is this world really fictional?

[Uh... This world is not fictional... Uh, yes, that's right. ]

[I am just an observer, observing the stories happening in many worlds. ]

[I just happened to see this world, so I came to see it. 】

Listening to the voice that suddenly sounded in her mind, Kiana widened her eyes and felt a little incredible.

"You... can you hear my voice?" She asked tentatively in her heart.

[Of course, I'm talking to you now. ] The voice replied.

Kiana took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

"Really? Then can I ask you a few questions?"

[...]

"Why don't you speak... If you don't speak, I'll take it as your acquiescence. Since you are an observer, do you know where the space rift that brought me to this world is?" Kiana was eager to know all the clues about how she could go back.

It's not that Kiana doesn't want to stay in this world. When she decided to board the Star Sky Train, she had already regarded everyone in the train group as a family, and she had to protect their safety until the end of the journey. However, deep in her heart, she always cared about the hometown that had lost contact, and the relatives and friends she missed deeply. She hoped to find a way to go back.

[I can only tell you that it's almost time. ]

There was a hint of mystery and depth in the voice.

Kiana frowned slightly upon hearing this, her heart full of doubts.

"Soon? What does that mean? Do you mean I'm about to find that space rift?" she asked in her heart.

However, this time the voice did not answer her immediately.

"Don't you want to answer... Since you can observe other worlds, can you see my original world?"

[Yes. ]

Kiana's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and her eyes flashed with anticipation.

"Then can you see my hometown now? What happened in my hometown? Are my family and friends all right?" she asked eagerly.

[I saw it...]

The voice paused.

[If you keep asking, I don't mind exposing your dark history. (Funny, if I really say it, wouldn't it be a spoiler in advance...)]
