Vivian Hugo, a local of Nest City No. 3, a candidate for the Mayor of Lower City, and arguably the strongest contender for the position.

According to Old Jin, Hugo has an extremely high support rate in the polls, almost comprising 60% of the total voter ratio. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be the next Lower City Mayor.

His opponents have used all means against him, smearing his name, spreading rumors... even assassination attempts, but none have been able to stop his progress.

In the end, those politicians could only falsely accuse him and send him to prison on the Floating Island, intending to forcefully drag out the election period.

The mayor's position is a lifelong tenure, so even if Hugo's support rate is high, it would be useless if someone else is elected.

Yun You's purpose for coming to the Floating Island is to bring this guy back and protect him so he can participate in the election campaigns in time.

In theory, someone as renowned as Vivian Hugo should be easy to find.

But the trouble is that this person's style of conduct defies convention. He is running for mayor but never shows his true face and instead plays a "virtual idol" online...

That's right, the kind referred to as a "mascot person" virtual idol.

All his activities are conducted online, campaign speeches, debates, promotional events, charity dinners... all of it without exception.

No one knows what he really looks like, only that he uses an avatar of a pink-haired catgirl as his image and always uses a voice changer, making it impossible to discern even if he is male or female, just leaving a name.

Vivian Hugo.

Even Old Jin doesn't know his real appearance.

Yun You speculates that the guy might have even voluntarily surrendered to prison; otherwise, even the cops probably couldn't catch him.

After all, one messed-up account after another, he's enjoying his "role-playing game," but it's a pain for Yun You, who has to protect him.

"Vivian Hugo..."

Hearing the name, Tian En was momentarily taken aback, then shook his head and honestly replied, "Seems I haven't heard of him... is there a more accurate description? Like an identity or something."

"Oh, it's just a virtual streamer who wants to run for mayor, quite influential too."

Yun You muttered softly.

"Virtual streamer...? Haven't heard of that either."

Tian En shook his head again.

Seeing this, Yun You was inevitably a bit disappointed.

With so much confusion on this vast Floating Island, where should she find that damn mascot person?

But just as the little girl sighed, Tian En spoke up again...

"But still..."

"I do know someone who wants to run for mayor—my master [mumu]! Or should I say Lord Mokaka!"

As he spoke, Tian En clasped his hands as if in prayer, closed his eyes full of piety.

"Lord Mokaka is gallant and incomparable, Lord Mokaka is steadfast and mature, Lord Mokaka is invincible in the world..."

"She can do anything she wants, and if she wants to run for mayor, then that position will definitely be hers in the end!"

"This is Lord Mokaka, a greatness beyond words!"

When saying this, Tian En's eyes were even glowing, emitting red heart-shaped sparkles, not at all like an act.

No...

Such genuine expressions come from the heart, impossible to fake!

For a moment, Yun You was a bit dazed.

In her interactions with Tian En, she found this girl to be quite reserved, after all, she's the offspring of politicians...

But now, Tian En exhibited an almost fanatical enthusiasm, showing loyalty to "Mokaka" that transcended worldly interests.

Yun You had no doubt that if she insulted Mokaka now, Tian En would certainly fight her to the end.

"Could this Mokaka be an Enchanting Demon?"

"Or does she truly have some enormous charm?"

The little girl rubbed her chin, unable to figure it out no matter how hard she thought.

But upon further reflection, if Mokaka indeed possesses such ability, making others willing to pledge allegiance in a place like the Floating Island, then her personal charisma and rhetoric must have reached an unimaginable degree.

And isn't this exactly like Vivian Hugo, who never shows his face... only operates online, but can garner numerous votes and public support?

Considering this, Yun You was suddenly intrigued.

"According to what you say, this Lord Mokaka is indeed something special."

The little girl leaned forward, smiling as she asked, "In that case, could you introduce me? I'd like to experience her finesse too."

"Well..."

Tian En hesitated.

"Don't worry."

Yun You patted the girl's shoulder, reassuring her, "I'm not some notorious villain; I won't harm your Lord Mokaka."

"No... it's not..."

Tian En quickly waved his hands in explanation, "I'm not worried about that; I'm worried it would involve you."

"Though Lord Mokaka is popular, she is also envied and currently pursued and blocked by various forces, anyone associated with her is seen as a thorn in the side and a pain by the prison gangs here."

"The reason I was chased by the War Gang today is largely because of this."

"If you want to meet her, you'd basically be siding with her, which would make you an enemy to those damn War Gang, and... I don't want to cause you trouble."

Upon hearing this, Yun You burst into laughter.

"That, you don't need to worry about."

"I didn't come here to lie down and live a peaceful life, just serving out the sentence bit by bit."

"I'm here to 'stir things up!' The more chaotic the Floating Island is, the happier I am!"

"Moreover, I promised to protect you and help you escape this forest. From this perspective, this commitment is established regardless of whether I join Mokaka's side or not."

"So, take me there; maybe I could even be a significant help to you."

Hearing this, Tian En indeed had nothing to refute.

She nodded and murmured softly, "Then I'll take you there now; as it happens, the prosthetic Blacksmith is nearby too."

With that, she grabbed the black bag at her side, stretched her sore limbs, and went to lead the way ahead.

Yun You also brushed the dust off her pants and was about to get up to follow but inadvertently caught sight of the bag.

Through the holes in the bag, Yun You saw what was inside.

It was a brown wooden instrument, roughly 80 centimeters long. Its streamlined surface bore tree patterns yet was incredibly smooth, with four strings spanning from tip to end.

Yun You recognized this instrument.

It's a musical instrument called a violin.

No, strictly speaking, it should be a double bass.

That is, a "bass."

Something Tian En desperately protected wasn't wealth or treasure, but a musical instrument...
