Chapter 52: A Day and Night
This correction didn’t really affect the future much.
What Night Lan did only impacted a small part of it.
For example, Star Sheng and some First Generation Star Eclipses.
Night Lan stopped the former from becoming a Star Eclipses, keeping her as a human.
The Wish Princess extracted this element and made it real in “now.”
Night Lan’s killing of the Ballad Conductor also became real right now.
They would have memories related to these events, as if they experienced them firsthand.
Other than these two interventions, nothing else changed.
For instance, everything Star Sheng did in Pinghaishi as a Star Eclipses remained the same.
The tragedies caused by some First Generation Star Eclipses didn’t change much either.
It was like Night Lan wished for two things directly.
One was reviving Star Sheng with a human body.
The other was making sure the Ballad Conductor died once.
That was what happened more or less.
After fixing reality,
the Wish Princess opened the Theater Door and walked briskly into the theater, not even looking back.
She needed rest.
Meanwhile, Li Yan stood frozen in place.
He didn’t relax until the black-haired figure finally left the basement behind him.
“So that’s her power?”
Li Yan confirmed again just how powerful Night Lan was.
A high-spec Star Eclipses indeed.
Her aura earlier felt godlike and intimidating.
Before he could continue thinking about it,
he realized something odd.
A dense cluster of blue dots appeared around him and eventually formed a tiny figure.
Star Sheng reappeared.
“This…”
Li Yan opened his eyes wide, seeing the impossible.
He distinctly felt Star Sheng vanish, and her heavy obsession and powers had vanished with her.
So why on earth…is Star Sheng back again?
Li Yan moved closer for a better look and noticed something crucial.
Neither the Star Eclipses aura nor a near-d*ath sensation existed on Star Sheng; she only had normal life energy.
She was now a human!
Realizing this, Li Yan gained a deeper understanding of Night Lan’s power.
“Is this a miracle?”
At the same time,
a mischievous First Generation Star Eclipses touring the world suddenly got badly injured.
“This memory…. Is it on the same level as the origin? I’d better keep my distance. Can’t mess with this.”
…
Night Lan and Night Star fell asleep in the theater together.
All the troupe members circled around them, concern evident in Kung Yu Bai’s eyes and the others’.
“She looks exhausted. Did she do something tough?”
Mo Rabbit squatted down to examine the two lolis and then propped up her face to whisper, “Exhausted B-level mental energy indicates something significant happened; she probably needs a long rest.”
The group leader said, “Then let the Audience Performer rest properly. Tomorrow is our theater troupe’s performance day. Even without her presence, we’ll strive for our best performance.”
The Audience Performer’s presence was vital for encouraging the troupe members.
Though they’d lose some motivation without her, it doesn’t mean they can’t perform.
Besides, the Singer could hide the Star Eclipses pollution for smooth performances.
Everything will proceed as usual.
Lianhua manipulated a puppet to carry Night Star and Night Lan back to their room for rest.
Kong Yu Bai stepped out of the theater, transforming into a Night Watcher, and appeared at the Night Watcher base in Pinghaishi.
Hidden information was restored to the world.
Kong Yu Bai approached Bai Yu and company.
“Night Lan needs rest and might not appear for some time, but rest assured she’s fine, so no worries about her safety.”
“Oh…”
The little lolis nodded bewilderedly.
Next, Kong Yu Bai arrived before the leader of Pinghaishi.
“You’re… Kong Yu Bai? The second Exraordinary Star Holder?”
The leader recalled something, but something felt off.
Kong Yu Bai nodded to acknowledge, then informed about Night Lan’s condition.
“I traveled with her, responsible for her safety. Don’t worry about my whereabouts. Please excuse my discretion regarding this.”
“Mm, I understand. An Extraordinary Star Holder indeed cannot afford any mishap. Thank you for your efforts.”
“Then I shall take my leave. Please take good care of Night Lan.”
“Alright.”
After delivering this message, Kung Yu Bai turned to leave.
The leader watched her go, deep in thought.
“How did I not recall the Night Watcher camp had such a person… is this her star?”
Even someone as powerful as the Sunlight Night Watcher could interfere; it’s unfair.
The leader put this thought aside and focused on the current issue.
Since Night Lan needed extended rest, the event handling alone should be paused.
In the meantime,
the Night Watchers in Pinghaishi would address all abnormalities within their range.
Even if relevant Star Eclipses were to make an appearance,
they would intervene while Night Lan was away to avoid disrupting the order.
All that’s left now is to wait for results.
…
Time passed.
Night Star Lan slowly opened her eyes, waking up.
“Huh… Where am I?”
She observed briefly, recognizing the place almost instantly.
This seemed to be the room in the theater.
But she remembered interfering and changing Star Sheng’s story and destiny.
Yet she lost consciousness when she decided to come back.
Probably because achieving several wishes and killing the Supernova Star Eclipses drained her mental energy.
Fainting afterward should be normal.
Blame that d*mn Supernova Star Eclipses for that ridiculous move.
Night Star Lan hates tragedies.
And those making purposeful ones are even worse.
But since he was already killed in the past, he shouldn’t show up again, right?
Hope so.
Together, Night Star Lan got off the bed feeling somewhat weak again.
But it wasn’t as bad compared to after fulfilling the Dream Narrator’s wish.
Full recovery might take several days.
Wish Machines might not function for the next few days.
A simple wish could induce strong drowsiness.
Resting properly would be better.
Thinking this through, Night Star Lan walked out of the room and into the theater.
It was still eerily quiet inside, but oddly reassuring.
She scanned the scene and saw the puppet master Lianhua practicing on stage.
“Lianhua,”
Lianhua spotted the two small figures appearing in the theater during puppetry and promptly halted the practice to descend the stage and meet them.
“Audience Performer, you’re awake! Did you get a good sleep?”
“Yeah, feels much better after sleeping. Might be completely recovered in a few days.”
Lianhua sighed, clearly concerned about Night Star Lan’s wellbeing.
Night Star Lan suddenly thought of something.
“Oh, puppeteer, how long did I sleep? What time is it now?”
“It’s Sunday, and you slept almost a whole day and night.”
“What?!”
Night Lan froze in shock.
