'Jingliu' discovered, with a sense of despair, that Aha had done something to her video.
The narration part simply could not be changed. Every time she edited it, it would revert back to its previous state. It seemed Aha was dead-set on being the narrator for this piece.
What about the rest of it?
She desperately dragged the progress bar forward, only to find that Aha's physical image had vanished. However, the depictions of the other Aeons had undergone a leap in quality compared to what 'Jingliu' had just created.
If the Aeons in the previous frames were merely based on 'Jingliu's' impressions—limited by the rendering capabilities of the software and only able to mimic a negligible sliver of their divine aura—then now, after Aha's mysterious intervention, the visuals had completely shattered the performance limits of the software and the hardware alike.
If 'Jingliu' hadn't seen the Aeons with her own eyes, she would have believed the Aeons in the video were real! And it wasn't just the Aeons who showed their faces; even for those who only had their names appeared, those names carried a faint, divine resonance.
Aha!!! Look at what you've done!!
'Jingliu' started to feel a drumbeat of anxiety in her heart. At this point, could this video really be released??
'Jingliu' stared at the transformed video frames. Was this really something that could be publicly shown to people across the universe? Would the Interastral Peace Corporation truly allow such a thing to circulate among the stars??
Especially the depiction of IX, the Nihility... It wouldn't actually infect the viewers with Nihility, would it??
Although 'Jingliu' stared at it for a long time without triggering the system's protection, who knew if ordinary people would fall victim...
No.
The Nihility segment could not use the visuals created by that God of Joy. The others were fine—they might be shocking, but that was just a shock. If the Nihility segment provided a "shock," people might actually die.
Fortunately, Aha seemed only to care about being the narrator. He didn't stop 'Jingliu' from modifying the other frames. After successfully replacing the segment for IX, even though that small portion looked slightly out of place in the video, there was nothing she could do. If it weren't jarring, the viewers might "jar" themselves right into a grave.
With Aha's meddling, there was no more room for adjustment in the visual production. As for the music, there were similar free and open-source software options available. Recreating the melody in her head was a low-difficulty task.
As for whether this video could ultimately be released...
Post it!
At this stage, who could resist posting it? After all, the featured "cast" were all Aeons. Even Aha had jumped in to be the narrator. Her psychological burden was lightened.
It was all Aha's fault! Even if the IPC wanted to block it, Aha should be able to handle it. And if Aha couldn't, she'd just ask Herta for help. There was always a way to get it out there.
The entire production process took about ten days. The video and music were finished; only the final voice-over remained before the video could be completed and released.
Aha did not show up to nag her again.
As for Baiming, seeing that she had about half of her roleplay time remaining, she decided to end the 'Jingliu' roleplay early. She had rested well over the past half-month; it was enough. Besides, the saved time wouldn't go to waste.
Thus, with a thought, the silhouette of Jingliu vanished. In her place appeared a young girl with twin tails, dressed in a red yukata, whose height had shrunk significantly.
[Roleplay System] Name: Baiming Lifespan: 450 Years (Paused) + 30 (Roleplay) Transformable Characters: Madam Herta (Available), Acheron (Charge: 100%), Zephyro (Charge: 64.4%), Jingliu (Charge: 50.4%), Ruan Mei (Charge: 28.4%), Sparkle (In-Role) Available Draws: 0 (48.6%) Settlement Reward: For roleplaying as Jingliu, finding the original and curing her Mara-struck condition, you have obtained a fraction of Jingliu's talent.
Looking at the settlement rewards, they weren't much this time, but that was understandable. She really hadn't done much.
However, the current roleplay target was a different story.
'Sparkle' looked down at her flat chest and her suddenly lowered line of sight. It felt a bit hard to believe.
"...Director Sparkle, are you really this short?? Does your height even reach 1.4 meters??"
'Sparkle' stood next to the table to measure herself, feeling utterly incredulous. Since the game used generic young girl models, the height difference wasn't obvious. This was her first time drawing a character with a "young girl" body type. But... was Sparkle in the game only taller than Bailu and Pitch-Dark Hook the Great?
'Sparkle' pursed her lips, unable to stop a laugh. This time, the "Director" was truly going to be a bratty little girl.
But despite the lack of height, Sparkle's strength was by no means low. Baiming could feel the power hidden within this small frame. It wasn't a problem, though; she hadn't planned on doing much fighting as Sparkle anyway.
'Sparkle' climbed onto the chair and sat down for the first time. She found that her feet couldn't even touch the floor; they could only dangle in mid-air, her shoes clicking pitter-patter as she swung them. Truly a novel experience.
While marveling at this, 'Sparkle' opened the largest video-sharing platform in the universe. She registered a brand-new account. The profile picture was a kaleidoscope, and the ID was simply "Director Sparkle."
While waiting for certification, 'Sparkle' began the voice-over for the video.
It had to be said—though Sparkle was lacking in height, her acting skills were top-tier. Honestly, Baiming herself wasn't sure what kind of tone the white-haired woman frozen by Aha should have. But the moment Sparkle started, the voice sounded exactly like the person herself!
A mature, noble voice that drew people in, yet with a gentle undertone that kept it from being arrogant. Though blocked by a mask so her face was invisible, 'Sparkle' felt that this was the voice!
"Let's make an exchange... an exchange regarding 'Memories'..."
The narration began from a black screen, captured cleanly by the recording equipment. Although the image had changed, 'Sparkle' didn't change the lines. She still started with memory. After all, only memory was suitable for such a task.
"Please listen to the fables about the starry sky."
The visuals progressed. As the first card was drawn, the background music took a sharp turn, becoming solemn and grand. The name and icon for Destruction appeared on the screen. Currently, there were no unified symbols for the Paths and their corresponding Aeons in the universe. This was normal, so 'Sparkle' just copied the ones from the game, too lazy to design new ones.
The visuals continued—from Destruction to Hunt, Erudition...
One by one, the Aeons appeared on the screen with their unique divine auras. That aura almost overflowed from the screen, making the audience mistakenly believe they were being glanced at by an Aeon themselves.
Aha had really pulled off a massive stunt here.
Thus, after the voice-over was finished and the video was fully completed, she generously wrote a line in the video's description:
"Professional Guidance & Heartfelt Performance: Aha"
