#201 - What a beautiful day today is

Lin Fan was still watching the live stream.

Without realizing it, the game seemed to be nearing its end. Umbrella Man controlled the protagonist to enter a new map.

Tall arched doorways, warm orange-red floor tiles, and steady marble pillars supporting the dome.

Between the marble pillars were huge pointed windows, the embedded patterns resembling those on the ruins' gates. Golden sunlight streamed through the magnificent glass, casting a golden layer over the orange-red floor tiles.

However, the hall was too large, making the sunlight seem dispersed and not bright enough.

As soon as the protagonist entered the hall, only a black silhouette was visible, startling Umbrella Man: "Why is it so dark?"

In the shadows before the archway, a cross-shaped star flickered.

"The final corridor. File saved."

The protagonist stepped out of the shadows and into the dim yellow sunlight under the large windows, advancing along the corridor of the hall.

When the protagonist reached a marble pillar, they suddenly stopped.

A cutscene was triggered.

The camera slowly moved, the shadow of the pillar shifting to the left along with the protagonist, revealing a familiar figure, replacing the protagonist as the focus of the screen.

Two black figures confronted each other across the shadow of the pillar.

Lin Fan was surprised and recognized him at a glance: "Isn't that Sans?"

Sure enough, a dialogue box popped up above the screen, featuring Sans's avatar. He was still smiling憨厚ly as before: "Hello there. You've been busy lately, haven't you?"

It seemed like an ordinary greeting, but it sent shivers down one's spine.

What has the protagonist been busy with lately? Of course, slaughtering monsters.

Monsters with flesh and blood, cute or heroic, with their own families and friends.

For no reason other than he wanted to and could do it.

The peaceful and tranquil Underground world was completely destroyed by the protagonist, this demon's intrusion.

"So, I have a question to ask you."

Sans smiled and closed his eyes: "Do you think that even the worst person can change? That everyone can become a good person if they just try?"

The protagonist didn't speak, but took a step forward.

That was his answer.

"Hehehehe..."

Sans smiled gently and harmlessly, reopening his eyes, seemingly having made some sort of decision: "Okay."

He closed his eyes again: "Well then, I have a better question..."

Reopening his eyes, the pupils in his eye sockets were gone, leaving only two deep black holes. His gentle and honest temperament instantly turned terrifying: "Do you wanna have a bad time?"

The comments section started to flood the screen!

"Awesome!"

"Serious Sans is so cool!"

"Do you wanna have a bad time?"

"You're gonna have a bad time!"

"You will lie here!"

"Do you want to taste bones?"

Sans continued: "If you take another step forward, you are absolutely not going to like what happens next."

The protagonist took another step forward.

"Alright. Sorry, old lady." Sans closed his eyes slightly helplessly, "That's why I never make promises."

Lin Fan's mind raced: "Old lady, Toriel?"

Umbrella Man didn't react, somewhat puzzled: "Old lady? Is he scolding me?"

The comments section erupted in laughter: "Umbrella Man, what are you thinking? Old lady refers to Toriel!"

"Hahahahaha, I'm dying of laughter."

"Umbrella Man is so cute!"

"Toriel must have made Sans promise not to harm anyone who leaves the ruins."

"Judging from Sans's words, he's going to fight the protagonist."

Entering battle!

Sans was wearing a thick-collared cotton jacket, black shorts, and a pair of extremely casual slippers.

His hands were in his pockets, still looking listless as if he couldn't muster any energy to do anything.

He closed his eyes and said slowly: "It's a beautiful day today."

The background music featured the chirping of birds, the singing melodious and pleasant.

Sans didn't move, seeming to be earnestly and carefully listening to the birds' singing, or breathing in the fresh air, with the scent of rain, the fragrance of soil, and the aroma of flowers.

The atmosphere lacked any sense of tension of battle, instead, it felt like an outing or picnic.

"Birds are singing, flowers are blooming..."

The battle box and red heart appeared.

"On days like these, kids like you..." Sans opened his eyes, the pitch-black empty eye sockets terrifying beyond compare. He spoke calmly, one word at a time: "Should be burning in hell."

As soon as Sans finished speaking, suddenly one eye lit up, flashing yellow and blue light like a neon lamp, looking incredibly eerie!

The left hand inserted in his pocket, violently waved over his head, heavily slamming down like swatting a fly!

The lazybones who was casual and listless just now, instantly switched to a grim reaper walking out of the abyss of hell. Lin Fan's scalp exploded, and goosebumps rose all over his body!

Following Sans's action, the red heart was slammed hard to the bottom, and even the battle box shook violently!

Lin Fan's eyes widened: "What the hell!!????"

The heart was smashed and turned blue, in this state it would be affected by gravity.

Before Umbrella Man could react, Sans's hand waved upwards again, and a row of bone spears suddenly extended from the bottom of the battle box, stabbing the heart right in the center.

The HP bar at the bottom of the screen turned pink, and began to rapidly decrease.

Under normal circumstances, the heart would flash when attacked, showing a brief period of invincibility.

However, Sans's attack was very special. Although it only caused 1 point of damage at a time, the invincibility time also disappeared, allowing his attacks to damage based on the game's frame rate.

At the same time, the player would receive a continuous health reduction buff, the health bar turning pink. This continuous damage was called - "Karmic Retribution".

"Ding", the heart turned red again, Sans's hand waved to the right side of the screen, and following the direction of his wave, two rows of bone spears appeared above and below the battle box, rapidly undulating forward in a wave-like manner, like a surging tsunami, with only a height in the middle barely enough to accommodate the heart.

The swift and ever-changing offensive caught Umbrella Man off guard, frantically controlling the heart to dart up and down in the gaps, still being hit by many bone spears, and most of the health bar turned pink, rapidly decreasing as if burned by flames.

Four ferocious skull heads appeared in the four corners of the screen, their mouths splitting open, simultaneously spewing dazzling beams of light in the up, down, left, and right directions, piercing through the entire screen, ugh!

In less than a few tenths of a second, another four skull heads diagonally crossed and fired at the four vertices of the battle box, thick beams of light engulfing the heart. Immediately, another four skull heads, mouths wide open...

Umbrella Man had already given up operating, calling out in confusion: "What is this? What is this?!"

The screen went black, leaving only a red heart.

Split into two halves, shattering into pieces with a "pop".
