Chapter 721 - The One and Only "Two Dimensional Gate" (1/2)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Within the source world of the iconic “Witcher,” anomalies such as the “Lord God’s team” would show up. Clearly, this was the doing of writers. These authors might not hail from Zhao Youyue’s reality, but some other source world where endless survival type dimension-traveling, Doujinshi works were viral. Perhaps that world was derived from an iconic cultural entertainment franchise?
In this source world, “Olivia” did not exist. Everything followed the original Witcher 3 game. A famous author of the endless survival type dimensional-traveling novel, similar to an extremely popular writer like Master Juan Tu, had written about how his protagonist had entered “The Witcher’s” game world…
This led to several other writers following in his footsteps. They all used “The Witcher” as the background setting, producing Doujinshi works based on the endless survival type dimension-traveling genre.
Thus, the “time-traveling monster,” Lord God who fed on the cause and effect within the source world took note of this world. He did not find the cause and effect that he sought for, but something that was still reeling from Lady Zhao’s rampage. Zhao Youyue’s “Two Dimensional Gate” was actually far more awesome, compared to the “time-travel monster,” Lord God!
These “time-travel monsters” could only travel across different source world, siphoning their energies. They had no means of traversing into Zhao Youyue’s reality.
Reality would always be a level above the source worlds. Its incomparably strict rules had restricted even existences such as the “Two Dimensional Gate.” Within source worlds, the “Two Dimensional Gate” enabled Zhao Youyue to gather all the character cards’ abilities that she had accumulated into one body, and use them all concurrently.
Looking at these two side-by-side, one could see how wide the gap was between source worlds and reality.
“Lord God” may sound incredibly powerful, but its power and jurisdiction were only limited to the source worlds. In actual reality, “Lord God” was just the writings of many writers taking flesh. It was the plaything of several minds, bending to their unified wills.
It could not be helped. Reality was far too… real. The source worlds of several iconic works were all derived from the fantasy of humans from reality. Even if they were sometimes realistic enough to be a perfect replica of reality, they were still source worlds.
Many people in the real world have subconsciously acknowledged the existence of other worlds. Little did they know that such worlds were actually born from their fantasies. If they ever laid eyes upon such a world, they might even mistake it as reality.
However, if the ingenuity of the source world intended to show up in reality, they could only appear through other means like books and anime. But when the people in the real world slipped into dreams, their consciousness would wander into the source world. Upon waking up, they would have little to no recollection of the dream. Maybe they would think that they would have had a little far too much to drink, read, watch, snot.
If that dream turns into a nightmare, it was just because they have inadvertently crept into a supernatural genre source world. As a dreamer, one’s rate of rationality would be dull and numbed down. He might actively seek for death, again and again. Anyway, it was just a dream.
