Three Red Keywords, How Can I Lose

"Goodbye, Master Wizard."

"Goodbye, Miss Servia."

It seemed as though an unfulfilled wish had finally been completed.

After conversing with Xu Xi for a while,

the spirits of the two elderly gradually grew transparent, dissolving into shimmering motes of light. Their faces remained serene, filled with happiness, as they waved farewell to Xu Xi and Servia.

"Goodbye, Grandpa Hansen."

"Goodbye, Grandma Mina."

Servia stretched out her hands, cupping them together to gently catch the dissipating motes of light.

She felt no sorrow.

Instead, she offered her sincere blessings, wishing the elderly couple continued happiness in their next life.

It was an extraordinarily beautiful scene.

The underworld was dim, shrouded in eternal gray silence, yet golden souls soared into the sky, leaving traces like the first light of dawn etching its mark.

"Good night."

Xu Xi gazed up at the sky, watching the entire process of the elderly couple's reincarnation, bidding them farewell once more.

Returning to the courtyard,

Xu Xi began reviewing his current tasks.

"The dragon blood has been drawn—new reserves will last a long time."

"Earth has been inspected—the ascension process is stable."

"Then, it's time to begin the sixth simulation."

After confirming everything was in order,

Xu Xi prepared to initiate the new simulation.

After half a year of contemplation, he had chosen a new world aspect—the Xuanhuan (Mystical Fantasy) realm.

"Mo Li, Krisha, Ying Xue, Ailei, Servia."

"This time, I’ll be counting on you."

Yanshan City, courtyard.

The sun was bright, and spring was in full bloom. The crimson and deep green dragonblood grass swayed in the wind, bending like waves of red and green, pulsing with the rhythm of life.

Xu Xi sat in a corner of the courtyard, facing the five supreme beings who stood ready.

"No problem, Elder Brother."

"Yes, Mentor."

"You can leave it to me, Sir."

"Ailei is happy to serve you, Master."

"I understand, Master Wizard."

Under the curious gazes of the five girls, Xu Xi summoned the simulator panel and deftly performed a premium currency recharge.

[Ding—]

[Xuanhuan Anchor Medium Loading Progress: +1%, +1%, +1%, +1%]

The simulator's progress bar rapidly filled, reaching 100% in mere moments.

Then, a new prompt appeared on the simulator.

[Xuanhuan Anchor Medium Loading Complete]

[Congratulations, Host. You have obtained a simulation attempt. Would you like to begin the simulation and start a wonderful simulated life?]

[Current Available Simulations: 1]

A mechanical voice rang out as the panel synchronized with lines of densely packed text, flickering faintly.

Xu Xi didn’t rush to start the simulation. Instead, he turned to the girls. "Do any of you notice anything?"

He pointed at the simulator panel before him.

"I think so."

Xu Moli furrowed her delicate brows. "Elder Brother, I can’t see your cycle of reincarnation, but I can vaguely sense something around you."

The others nodded, expressing similar observations.

"Is that so…?" Xu Xi pondered. "It seems we’ll only uncover more once we truly begin."

Without further hesitation,

Xu Xi chose to start the simulation.

[Simulation Initializing…]

[Worldline Calculation in Progress…]

[Target World Located: Xuanhuan Realm]

[Trait Generation Complete. Please select three traits as your character’s innate talents for this simulated life.]

[Trait Ranks: White, Green, Blue, Purple, Gold, Red]

Late Bloomer (Blue): Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west—never mock the elderly for their poverty!

Holding Breath (White): You excel at enduring humiliation, capable of swallowing your pride for thirty years.

Wealthy Beyond Measure (Blue): Money is never an issue in your life. No matter where you go, you’ll always have abundant riches.

Life-or-Death Battle (Purple): In fights where you stake your life, your strength grows continuously.

Survivor (White): Your survival skills are exceptional, allowing you to endure in most environments.

"???"

Xu Xi skimmed through the traits,

only to be left utterly baffled.

Seriously? This is playable?

"Sir, something’s happening!" Just as Xu Xi was about to speak, the five girls suddenly moved.

As if detecting something, the moment the simulator activated, they simultaneously intervened, sealing space-time with their supreme might, reaching into the unfathomable depths.

What happened next left Xu Xi stunned.

[Ding—]

[Traits Undergoing Revision…]

[Revision Complete.]

[Please select three traits as your character’s innate talents for this simulated life.]

Chosen by Fate (Red): You are the world’s favored child, blessed with unparalleled comprehension, talent, physique, and luck. Destined by heaven, you will inevitably reach the pinnacle of the world.

Fortune in Misfortune (Red): Every time you face a major setback, you will inevitably reverse the situation, turning adversity into advantage.

Gaze of the Supreme (Red): They are watching you… and following you.

Huh?

Three red-tier traits?!

Xu Xi was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected to enjoy such a lavish advantage before the simulation even began.

"Ailei, what just happened?"

Xu Xi turned to the mechanized maid, who excelled in analysis.

"Master, we detected your [Cycle of Reincarnation]—or rather, we made contact with it."

The maid stood quietly under the sunlight,

her hands folded over her abdomen,

explaining to Xu Xi in a soft tone.

Just moments ago, when Xu Xi activated the simulator and the traits appeared, the five girls had sensed the simulator’s deeper existence—

a convergence of concepts, laws, and possibilities,

existing across the past,

existing across the future,

elusive and intangible.

The five supreme beings acted in unison, leaving a faint imprint on the simulator.

"I see," Xu Xi murmured in contemplation.

No wonder the simulator had suddenly offered three red-tier traits. This starting setup was beyond perfect.

"Thank you, everyone."

"Now, please continue observing my changes."

After the girls nodded,

Xu Xi swiftly selected the three red-tier traits as his final combination.

[Traits confirmed. Begin simulation?]

"Confirm."

As Xu Xi finalized his choice, the familiar sensation of detachment washed over him. Once again, he witnessed the boundless ocean of possibilities—

every white thread,

every droplet,

every glimmer of light,

symbolizing the infinite variations of worlds and timelines.

"Whoosh—!"

"Whoosh—!"

Xu Xi’s consciousness separated from his body, hurled uncontrollably into the crossing. But the girls detected this anomaly, shattering layers of space-time to follow closely behind.

In the end, they crashed into the same worldline as Xu Xi.

[Simulation No. 06 Officially Begins]

[You open your eyes and find yourself seated on a wicker chair in the courtyard.]

[Xu Moli is by your side.]

[Krisha is by your side.]

[Wu Yingxue is by your side.]

[Ailei is by your side.]

[Servia is by your side.]

[You sense something and look up at the sky—only to lock eyes with an oncoming freight truck.]

[When you gaze upon the truck, the truck gazes back at you.]

[Undeterred by the five supreme beings beside you, the truck fearlessly plunges from the sky, charging at you like a meteor.]

[Due to the obstruction of the Supreme Being, you were not hit, yet you still crossed over.]
