But it truly exists.
The [Compound Water Agent] in memory truly exists.
Foster doesn’t think he’s crazy, although what happened to him could drive many intelligent creatures mad. However, Foster is someone who can completely dominate himself if he wishes, without being influenced by external forces. This is a very important quality and the core reason he has maintained his sanity all this time.
He is ninety-nine percent sure that the [Compound Water Agent] in his memory is definitely not an illusion.
However, the Compound Potion in memory truly only exists in memory.
In the world outside of Foster Ward’s memory, the things recorded in the "Advanced Stage Magic Potions" are what people perceive as the ’real deal’.
Of course, this statement is somewhat one-sided, as now both the description and effect of the [Compound Water Agent] in the book are flawless.
Every book is like this...
Whether it’s the "Advanced Stage Magic Potions" Foster found in the academy’s library, or every related book he could find in the restricted section, all the records about the [Compound Water Agent] are exactly the same.
Be it the preparation method or the usage effects.
It was as if the entire world suddenly trembled at some moment, and the consequence that followed was that everyone’s perception was violently, domineeringly twisted.
Except himself, only he was unaffected, only he still remembered this subtle sense of dissonance.
The change of the [Compound Water Agent] is not important, what matters is the reason for its change.
As for why he himself hasn’t changed, why he still remembers the former [Compound Water Agent], why he can sense the dissonance of this matter, Foster Ward has a pretty good idea.
Although he hasn’t shown any signs in everyday life, nor has the almost inseparable Lian noticed anything unusual, that secret he has kept for six years might just be the answer to this question.
"Perhaps... it’s time to have a chat with JOKER."
Foster sighed softly and murmured quietly, then cast his gaze out of the window.
The sky of Academy City was as blue and bright as ever.
...
Game Time AM10:47
Central District of Academy City, Dan Slave Military Academy, [Warfire League] Venue
"Hey—hey—microphone test, microphone test! How’s the sound? Can you hear me clearly? How about the image? Great, as everyone can see, here is Laris Růžička, a sixth-grader from the [Mercury Gold Military Academy]."
Suddenly, the crystal screens 1 to 4 that floated in mid-air stitched together, and after a brief scramble, a girl with long pink hair, dressed in a black student uniform appeared on the screen. Her eyes were as bright and red as fire diamonds, with her left eye covered by her bangs. She had a cute appearance, adorned with a purple butterfly hairpin. Though her voice was pleasant, it was not friendly; her demeanor was similarly unfriendly.
"Hello everyone, this is Lei Er Si Růžička, a sixth-grader from the [Mercury Gold Military Academy], the younger sister of Laris. Although it’s sudden, to provide a better viewing experience, Laris and I will be your commentators for the event."
Soon after, in the same manner, screens 5 to 8 stitched together, and a girl identical in appearance to Laris showed up on screen. She had long blue hair, with eyes of the same blue hue, her bangs symmetrically styled to the right. Her hairpin, like Laris’s, was purple, but her voice and demeanor were both very sweet, a perfect lady of gracious manners.
Immediately, everyone present at the venue, including those in the preparation area, was utterly stunned.
"Commentary?"
Yu Chen blinked, looking around curiously, and whispered to Fyari sitting next to her, "Is it strange to have commentary for a match? Why does everyone look so surprised?"
Being one of the few at the scene not showing any surprise, Fyari lazily ate a piece of pastry and casually said, "Our side and your Wang Yu world are different. Most matches don’t have much commentary, and of course, there’s no toxic commentary culture either. Simply put, while people may watch for the insights or the excitement, it’s rare to have someone specially talk over the games."
Yu Chen nodded like a pecking chick: "Oh, oh! So that’s why!"
"Moreover, as far as I know, niche high-end events like the [Warfire League] have never had a commentator position. Though there is an element of not keeping pace with technology, it’s mainly because those who come here to watch are either professionals or military enthusiasts who can understand it without any interpretation."
Fyari yawned, glanced at the girls on the big screens, and smiled, "So something like this is a first~"
Yu Chen continued to nod like a pecking chick, then laughed happily: "I think it’s great, after all, there must be people like me who wouldn’t understand things just by watching."
Fyari showed a sparkling smile with eight teeth showing and gave a thumbs-up, saying, "That’s for sure, it’s my idea after all!"
"Eh?!"
Yu Chen was immediately stunned, and after a while, she exclaimed, "It was your idea, Fyari?!"
"Yeah, I thought having commentary would better heat things up, especially with such professional and eye-catching beautiful commentators."
Fyari casually stuffed a piece of pastry into the nearby Black’s mouth, who was also listening, and cheerfully said, "So, I mentioned it to Foster, who just happens to be the event organizer, we have some connection~"
Just then, Laris, who had fallen silent after introducing herself, spoke again.
"Alright, alright, settle down, Laris is only doing commentary because the principal asked her to, so show your gratitude by listening well!"
"Sister!"
Sitting next to Laris, Lei Er Si pulled her sister’s arm, lowered her voice, and said, "Don’t just blurt out your thoughts!"
Unfortunately, the amplifying device broadcasted her words without missing a beat.
The entire audience: "..."
"Because what Laris said is true, it’s okay. Remember the last [Warfire League]? If there had been a reliable commentator like Laris then, at least ninety percent of the fools who thought our [Witch] junior sister was cheating could have been avoided."
The sharp-tongued pink-haired girl pouted, her lips curling into a wry yet cute curve.
Lei Er Si: "..."
The entire audience: "..."
"So, in order for you to enjoy the excitement better, Miss Laris and the adorable Lei Er Si will be responsible for commentary on all matches from now on."
Laris arrogantly nodded, acting as though she was doing something extraordinary.
"My sincerest apologies!"
Lei Er Si inexplicably bowed her head and began to apologize.
The entire audience: "...OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"
It seemed indeed, just as Fyari said, the two beautiful commentators really did have a positive effect, and even though Laris’s words were sharp, most people didn’t find them annoying. In fact, this kind of distinct persona and individuality easily attracts those who resonate with them.
All in all, the atmosphere at the venue was thus stirred up.
"But it really is a coincidence, I didn’t expect my sister and I to happen to catch the last match of this round, and with the Dream Teaching Country’s Ramollok Chief Priest participating, it’s really lucky."
Lei Er Si raised a slender hand, and screens 9 to 17 quickly stitched together, displaying the profiles of the contestants for the last match of the 52-to-26 round.
"Lei Er Si, Lei Er Si, this isn’t luck, clearly, we were specifically arranged to show up for this match, it can only be said to be blatant favoritism, blatantly riding on the popularity of Ramollok."
Laris stated expressionlessly.
"Sister! There’s no need to explicitly state that!"
"Because it’s Laris, it’s okay."
"Sister’s lack of cooperation makes things difficult for me!"
"It’s okay, because Lei Er Si is adorable."
"That’s not the point!"
