Fat Goose was definitely getting back at her for the curses—or maybe because she had chosen Maple Syrup over him when she was looking for allies.

Rita clutched her chest in mock agony. "So, they're just causing chaos for fun?"

"Yeah." Lidian was still scrolling through the Battlefield Chat, clearly entertained. "Isn't that enough?"

She shared what she saw. "Since they've lost their game qualifications, they've got nothing to lose. They're just griefing—but under Maple Syrup's leadership, they're doing it in an organized, disciplined way.

"They don't attack the mechanical race or touch the Safe Zone shops, just mess with the players—stealing diamonds and ore, then bailing right before the Safe Zone triggers special events."

Nivalis: "...That's just dirty."

Rita: "What do you mean 'dirty'?! That's called tactics!"

Nivalis squinted at her. "Since when did you start defending Maple Syrup?"

Rita: "I'm just stating the facts."

No way she was going to admit that she'd started seeing Maple Syrup as her teacher.

—

Rita decided to stay overnight at Dragon Island.

Lidian seemed to enjoy talking with someone who had actually been inside the World Battlefield.

Her friends, like Snow Pile, had never been there, so no matter how much she talked, they could never fully grasp the thrill and dangers of it.

Even though Lidian had suffered a lot in the Battlefield, when she reminisced, she could recall countless moments of joy—some tied to Pine Bloom, others simply from the games themselves.

As she listened, Rita pulled out her collected ore, sorting through the cheapest ones to see if she could recharge B80234615.

This B80234615 was full of lies.

It had said it would wake up after the contract, but it hadn't moved in the pet space—its power was still at 0%.

So in the end, she had to spend her own resources on it.

Damn machine.

Casually, she asked, "Any news about Y128?"

"None," Lidian said. "You've been gone too long—it wouldn't still be there. They can't stay in the World Battlefield indefinitely.

"The Y-Series is unique. While other mechanical races change their form based on the Divine Game setting, they remain the same."

That reminded Rita of the vending machines and go-karts in the Racing Game.

"Do their names change too?" she asked.

"Most mechanical races adapt to different settings—like the NPCs in the game console you gave Holy Cup. But no matter the form, they always keep their serial number."

Lidian explained, "However, the Y-Series is the most special—they never change form, and their ID remains constant.

"Your game was unique, just like the one where Pine Bloom got her… uh, special thing."

Rita placed B80234615 on a chunk of ore worth 1,500 diamonds.

The tiny cube began to glow, flickering like a phone finally charging.

Lidian's gaze darkened. "It looks just like before… You've hurt me, BS Rita."

Rita: "..."

Nivalis: "..."

Rita quickly stuffed both the ore and B80234615 into her pocket.

Lidian let out a long sigh, returning to the battle updates. "Maple Syrup really hasn't changed. She never cares about making enemies."

Rita: "What about Pine Bloom?"

"It's not about whether she's afraid," Lidian said. "For normal owls and dragons, when faced with an overwhelmingly stronger opponent, they'll step back and bide their time.

"But Maple Syrup isn't normal—she doesn't retreat. Ever."

"What did she do this time?"

"She slapped SakuraLizi and TingoJE across the face."

"…Aren't those guys ranked in the top 100?"

"Yeah. Did they drop?"

Rita checked. "Nope. One's Rank 37, the other Rank 61."

"Damn," Lidian whistled.

Rita took the chance to confirm her suspicion.

"Is it true that high-level players can't just kill low-rank players whenever they want?"

"Correct," Lidian nodded. "There's a penalty."

"What kind of penalty?"

Lidian shook her head. "You'll find out eventually. It's different for everyone. The Divine Game assigns specific restrictions based on each player… Like Pine Bloom—uh, never mind."

Just as Rita was about to press for details, Lidian changed the topic.

"But I can tell you Syntax Monarch's restriction. Pine Bloom hates him. They've been fighting for years."

Rita immediately perked up. She pulled out fruit from Marmang World and placed it in front of Lidian.

"Please, go on."

She'd take any intel she could get on these top-tier players.

Lidian said, "If he kills someone way weaker than him, he gets muted."

"For example, back when he was Nightmare-tier, he killed a Casual-tier player, and for that entire game, he was limited to 10 words per hour."

So even at Nightmare-tier, killing a Casual-tier player was penalized?

Was it based on tier, or actual battle power?

Rita frowned.

If she remembered correctly, in the Racing Game, she had been hunted by a few 10-tier players—and she had only been a Casual-tier at the time.

Lidian must have noticed her reaction.

"I told you," she said. "Everyone's restrictions are different. Just like everyone's potential and talents are unique.

"Pine Bloom got hit with restrictions when she was 10-tier.

"Maple Syrup got hit even earlier—at 8-tier."

Nivalis, unable to hold back her curiosity, asked, "If Maple Syrup is stronger than Pine Bloom, why does Pine Bloom have the better Four Seasons City?"

Not only was Maple Syrup's potential higher, but her rank on the ladder board was better.

Maple Syrup: Rank 3,900+ (Drunken Heroics).

Pine Bloom: Rank 4,200+ (Masquerade Ball).

Peach Crown: Rank even lower.

Lidian's expression grew complicated.

"Because Maple Syrup traded an enormous amount of resources… and one act of surrender… in exchange for one of Pine Bloom's 'Rose Vouchers.'"

"What's that?"

"Each Rose Voucher lets you make a wish. They're incredibly rare—Pine Bloom has only ever created seven.

"When you make a wish, fate itself bends in your favor. Everything starts shifting to help fulfill that wish."

"…Maple Syrup's wish was to resurrect her daughters, wasn't it?"

"Of course. Everyone knew what she wanted."

"But Maple Syrup lost two daughters. Would reviving both count as one wish or two?"
