You Want to Kill Me? Sorry, I Saw It Ten Thousand Years from Now

[High Martial] [Exceptional Talent] [Decisive and Ruthless] [Time-Line Mayhem] [Little Girl Narrator] [A Hundred-Thousand-Year Cycle!] [All Races Besiege the City, Humanity Faces Extinction] [Martial Combatants] [Arcane Combatants] [Friend, care for a game of chess?]

“My name is Feng Qi... and when I looked a hundred thousand years into the future, I saw you kill me!”

A thousand years ago, the Rift Crisis entered its next phase with the arrival of alien races. Particles from another dimension twisted the scientific foundations humanity had built over millennia.

[Look up! See those arcane inscriptions on the stele? They record humanity's struggle to save itself and its eventual downfall over the past ten thousand years. You can even see how you meet your untimely end in the final line.]

[Look to your right. There's a tempering fruit on that tree... Don't eat it! I wasn't finished! It's cursed! Oh no, another poor soul has died.]

Feng Qi gazed at the top-grade red tempering fruit in his hand. In the end, he didn't eat it. Instead, he stared at the narrator's pop-up with a bewildered look.

[!?]

[You!]

[You can see me!?]

“I could choose not to see you...”

Feng Qi looked away.

“My story ended because of her, and began because of her. This is a tribute to humanity's hundred thousand years of struggle in this world. May humanity's glory endure forever.”
