New scene

Pinoconi, the conference room of the Oak Family.

Sunday sat at the head of the table, staring intently at the temporarily closed screen of his phone.

The events unfolding had exceeded his expectations. How could he realize his ideal paradise now?

Sunday took a deep breath and looked at the crow on the table, controlled by the Dream Master.

"We must take action. We can't just sit here and wait for doom," he said with determination.

The Dream Master didn't speak, only tilting his head as he looked at Sunday.

"First, crucial intelligence has already been leaked, and these viewing rooms may very well play even more content," Sunday analyzed the situation gravely. "The original plan is no longer viable. We must make immediate adjustments and modifications!"

However, faced with such an urgent situation, the Dream Master remained calm and composed. "Don't panic, child. The situation hasn't developed beyond the point of no return yet," he said, his voice steady and firm.

Sunday retorted anxiously, "But if we don't take action quickly, the consequences are simply unimaginable!"

He was especially worried about his sister - Robin. No, he absolutely couldn't let that tragedy happen again... Every time he recalled the scene of his sister's tragic death on the screen, his heart felt like it was being stabbed, as if a raging fire was burning in his chest.

"I understand your concerns, but it's at times like these that we need to remain calm and rational," the Dream Master advised solemnly. "The most crucial thing right now is to think about how to ensure our own safety and protect our ultimate goal."

Sunday fell silent for a moment, then nodded.

"Alright, where do we start then?" he asked.

"We need to gather more intelligence," the Dream Master replied. "Perhaps we can start with the people or forces related to this matter. Additionally, we need to strengthen our own defenses, just in case."

"The company is likely to make a move. If they really launch a strong attack without regard for appearances, we'll be in a very passive position."

"Mm, I'll arrange for that," Sunday said. "But Dream Master, do you really think we can successfully resolve this crisis?"

The Dream Master smiled, "We are the children of order. As long as we stand united, we will surely overcome these difficulties."

........

After another three days, the familiar vibration sounded again on the phones of various factions across the galaxy.

[Title: Live from the Xianle Grand Ceremony Press Conference, About to Begin]

If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

[Sparkle: First!]

[Guinaifen: Damn, family, that's some fast typing! Are you just holding your phone all day waiting?]

[Sparkle: Hehe~]

[Sunday: Xianle Grand Ceremony Press Conference?]

After this title appeared, many people were somewhat bewildered.

The trio who had just concluded their journey to Jarilo-VI had just returned to the train. With the help of the viewing system, they easily gained the trust of the Belobog people, but unfortunately, Cocolia's fate was already sealed - corrupted by the Stellaron, she could no longer turn back.

And Stelle had finally obtained the Flame Spear she had been longing for.

"Eh, a press conference? Has this system's timeline gone haywire?" March 7th said with some confusion. "What do you think, Uncle Yang?"

"Hmm... This might be the beginning of the Pinoconi story, but there's one thing that concerns me," Welt spoke up. "In the previous viewing, 'I' mentioned that we had been through Jarilo-VI and the Xianzhou, but our destination was already set for Pinoconi. What could have changed our itinerary?"

March 7th had a sudden realization. "Oh, that's right, we were originally planning to go straight to the banquet after leaving Jarilo-VI."

"Could it be that we encountered some danger or unexpected event that forced us to change our plans?" March 7th speculated.

"That's certainly possible, so we need to stay vigilant, little March," Welt replied.

As they were talking, the image began to play, and everyone turned their attention to it.

In an elegantly decorated, solemn reception hall, a snow-white feathered snowy owl that could speak human language was standing on the stage, delivering an impassioned speech: "Regardless of whether your world has the concept of day and night, I wish you all a good morning, afternoon, and evening!"

"Welcome, everyone, to the Family's 'Xianle Grand Ceremony' press conference," the owl continued.

"I am your host, Jimmy," the owl said, lifting its little hat in salute before continuing.

"The 'Xianle Grand Ceremony', a grand event held only once every Amber Era, is about to begin, with the galaxy's attention focused on the star of the ceremony - 'Pinoconi'."

"Tonight, we will present to you the latest information about this 'Xianle Grand Ceremony'."

"And now, please welcome with your warm applause the host of this 'Xianle Grand Ceremony' - the spokesperson of the 'Family' Pinoconi, Mr. Sunday."

Along with Jimmy's passionate introduction, a charming and magnetic male voice suddenly rang out: "Hello, dear listeners, I am Sunday."

At this point, the camera slowly panned out, revealing Sunday sitting comfortably on a soft sofa to the side, his face beaming with a warm and friendly smile.

"Welcome, Mr. Sunday," Jimmy quickly responded, his tone barely concealing his excitement. "Your presence has greatly elevated this program I'm hosting!"

Sunday smiled slightly and responded softly, "You're too kind, Mr. Jimmy. I'm grateful for the Interastral Peace Corporation's invitation, which allows me this opportunity to introduce this grand ceremony and its venue - Pinoconi - to listeners across the universe."

[Sushang: I don't seem to have heard about this before. Is this something that happens in the future too?]

[Dr. Ratio: Pom shocked.jpg]

[March 7th: When did the chat room get emojis, and it's Pom too, so cute!]

[Pom: Pom confused.jpg]

[March 7th: Pom thumbs up.jpg]

[Fu Xuan: Why are there such idiots here!]

[Fu Xuan: Obviously, this is the content that appeared in the very first viewing, which can be understood as a prequel or something similar.]

[Sushang: Oh, oh, oh, now I get it!]

After exchanging some commercial pleasantries, Sunday got straight to the point.

"Pinoconi, located in the Asdena star system, has long been known throughout the universe as a holiday destination, earning the beautiful title of 'Star of Festivities'."

"For this grand ceremony, all guests will be staying at the 'Daydream' hotel."

"Here, you can travel between reality and dreams, fully enjoying a dream that belongs solely to you."

Jimmy asked a question at just the right moment: "I'm a bit curious, how is this grand ceremony different from previous ones?"

"The Xianle Grand Ceremony is a tradition of Pinoconi with a long history," Sunday eloquently explained. "Building on this foundation, we've taken an important step - for the first time, we've openly extended invitations to various factions across the galaxy, welcoming everyone to join in this grand banquet."
