Chapter 275: This Simulator is Not Beautiful at All:
The autumn sun reflected off the glass walls.
Fallen leaves lined the streets, their golden hues painting a picture of the season’s desolation.
Pedestrians wrapped their coats tighter, quickening their pace, eager to return home for a brief respite.
A few days later.
Xu Xi stood in the courtyard, sensing the subtle changes in Yanshan City while recalling his recent findings.
“I’ve been to every possible location, and there’s nothing unusual.”
“I even had Yingxue investigate, but she found nothing.”
“Could it be that the revival of spiritual energy was a natural occurrence on Earth?”
Xu Xi frowned. His eyes reflected the autumn scenery—the drifting leaves and the diligent Witch immersed in her training.
Lately, Krisha had been training even more rigorously.
Xu Xi rarely saw her this alert.
But instead of looking wary of danger, she resembled a small animal fiercely protecting its precious food. Her serious training expression amused him.
Not mockingly, but in a way that appreciated her adorableness.
Stare—
Krisha’s instincts remained sharp. The moment Xu Xi entertained the thought, she lifted her head and met his gaze with her vacant yet inquisitive eyes.
“Master…
What are you thinking?”
She asked, and Xu Xi answered truthfully.
“Nothing much. Just thinking that a serious Krisha is quite cute.”
He chuckled, ruffling her silver-gray hair. The Witch blinked blankly before nodding in acknowledgment.
After ensuring Krisha was fine, Xu Xi returned to his room.
He settled by the window, where the golden sunlight fell across his face and nose bridge.
Opening a record book in his hands, he traced his notes with thoughtful eyes.
“I’ve investigated every site from the official archives regarding the initial spiritual energy revival, yet I found no anomalies.”
“Was there truly nothing unusual? Or…”
The autumn light illuminated the pure white pages, making every word stand out clearly.
Xu Xi pondered over his findings.
He found it hard to believe.
How could Earth, originally devoid of supernatural forces, suddenly awaken with multiple extraordinary systems? The idea was too abstract.
But Yingxue found no irregularities.
This meant the truth was either exactly as it seemed… or something powerful enough to block supreme beings had hidden the truth.
“…This…”
Xu Xi wondered if he was overthinking things.
Would any supreme being be so idle as to tamper with Earth just to revive its spiritual energy?
That made no sense.
“If not for the simulator, if not for me, Moli and the others wouldn’t have even noticed Earth.”
“Let alone assist in its ascension.”
“So…”
“Could this really be the simulator’s doing?”
When every other possibility was eliminated, the only remaining answer had to be the truth.
From what Xu Xi understood, the Beautiful Life Simulator was an entity beyond comprehension—its origin and existence defied logic.
If…
If Earth’s transformation and the sudden emergence of supernatural forces all stemmed from the simulator…
Then it made sense why Yingxue found no anomalies.
After all, Xu Xi had previously confirmed that even supreme beings couldn’t perceive the simulator’s interface.
“Could it be…
The so-called Beautiful Life Simulator simply means adapting the simulated power to reality, making me thrive in this revived world?”
Xu Xi closed the record book.
The cover shimmered with golden light, casting a soft glow on his startled face.
Muttering to himself, he said, “If that’s the case, then I may have misunderstood the simulator.”
“However, this still doesn’t explain its origins, its true nature, or why it appeared on Earth.”
“Moli and the others can’t influence the simulator.”
“They can only sense faint disturbances when a simulation begins.”
“Perhaps, during my next simulation, I should focus on exploring this aspect.”
Xu Xi leaned back in his wooden chair, his gaze shifting toward the towering display cabinet in the room.
Through the glass doors, four items were clearly visible inside:
His sister’s candy jar, the Witch’s magic staff, the Princess’s paper flower, and the Machine Servant’s identification tag.
Each item carried cherished memories.
As he looked at them, he recalled the faces and voices tied to each moment, evoking a deep, irreplaceable bond.
Involuntarily, a smile spread across his face.
But then, his expression suddenly froze.
Xu Xi remembered something crucial.
“Logically, I should be grateful to the simulator. It gave me the opportunity to change my life, granting me supernatural powers and allowing me to meet the people who matter most.”
“But if the simulator itself caused the revival of spiritual energy…”
“Then doesn’t that mean…
It was also responsible for my crippled legs back then?”
“…This…”
A wave of complex emotions surged within him.
He truly appreciated the simulator for changing his life.
Yet at the same time, he had a strong urge to dismantle it.
Damn it.
This simulator really isn’t beautiful at all.
————
Having uncovered the truth behind the spiritual energy revival, Xu Xi felt considerably relieved.
Despite its flaws, he still trusted the simulator.
Aside from constantly killing him in bizarre ways during simulations, it had been a reliable tool.
“Well then, time to enjoy some peaceful days.”
With the investigation concluded, there was nothing left to worry about.
Xu Xi’s daily life returned to its usual tranquility—whether it was ‘rigorous’ training, tending to his plants, or fishing in the nearby streams.
It was a simple yet comforting routine.
Except…
That strange feeling crept up on him again.
Winter was still far away, yet the autumn air was becoming unnaturally cold.
“Is Earth’s ascension progressing too fast, causing the climate to fluctuate?”
Xu Xi speculated.
There wasn’t much he could do. Regarding Earth’s ascension, the only option was to wait.
“Brother, I want candy~~”
As always, the mischievous Xu Moli clung to Xu Xi’s arm, playfully demanding sweets.
She seemed to be in an unusually good mood lately.
Yet, whenever Xu Xi asked why, she refused to answer.
“Brother, it’s a secret.”
She would say with a mysterious smile, her eyes drifting to the ceiling, the corners of her lips curling slightly.
In stark contrast, Krisha continued her intense preparations.
Wielding her magic staff, elemental energy swirled around her, and the very laws of the world seemed to orbit her being.
“Master, please try to stay indoors for now.”
She warned, insisting that the outside world had become too dangerous and that she could best protect him if he remained at home.
“It’s fine, Krisha.”
“With my strength, there’s no way I’d be in danger.”
Xu Xi reassured the Witch with a lighthearted laugh.
Though, now that he thought about it…
Hadn’t they had a conversation like this once before?
No matter.
With three supreme beings as his ‘support system,’ invincibility and safety were practically guaranteed.
