Mario was confused by the seemingly endless fall, when suddenly, his body collided with the hard ground. In pain and surprise, he found himself standing in the same place where he had fallen before, the last remnant of the Mushroom Kingdom—a small isolated piece of land. Surrounded by endless darkness, there was nothing else. Mario couldn't help but feel a hint of despair. Did this mean he would be forever trapped in this desolate land, unable to escape?
At that moment, his heart was filled with conflict and panic. He struggled to accept this outcome while feeling helpless. But Mario's nature refused to give up. He decided to challenge fate once again, jumping into the seemingly bottomless abyss, hoping to find a glimmer of escape, or perhaps, a turning point.
So, Mario once again rushed towards the invisible edge without hesitation and jumped into the black hole. This time, his heart was filled with inexplicable anticipation and fear. Would this crazy act take him to a whole new world, or would he once again return to this desolate starting point? As he fell, Mario's heart was filled with countless questions. He longed to find the answers, yet feared the ultimate truth.
However, when he once again felt the solid ground beneath his feet, Mario opened his eyes and was astonished to find that everything was repeating itself. He was once again standing on the only piece of land, surrounded by endless darkness and nothingness. Mario's heart was now filled with despair as he began to realize that this might be his fate—forever trapped in this cycle, unable to escape.
"Damn it! Come out and face me! Don't trap me here! If you have the guts, just kill me, okay? What kind of hero traps me here!" In this desolate space, Mario's shouts echoed, but only heartless echoes responded. He waved his hands, trying to grasp any possible salvation, but there was nothing around except the cold darkness. Mario's voice gradually became hoarse, shifting from anger to despair, and finally almost to pleading.
"What do you want from me?!" Mario fell to his knees, looking up at the unseen sky and shouting, his voice filled with powerlessness and defeat. "Do you want me to admit I'm wrong? I'm wrong! Is that enough?! Even if it's a dream...please let me wake up!"
But it seems that the world has already given up on dialogue, there is no sound, no movement, only Mario's panting and heartbeat, which seem particularly clear in this boundless emptiness. He began to feel an unprecedented loneliness and fear, emotions he had never experienced before - a king who once held himself in high regard, now trapped in a cage he cannot escape from.
Mario slowly stood up, and everything around him became particularly clear. This endless black hole not only swallowed his world, but also his soul. At this moment, he is no longer the proud king of the Mushroom Kingdom, but just an ordinary being played by fate, struggling in despair.
Mario felt an unprecedented panic and helplessness. His mood shifted from anger to fear, and he began to realize that he might truly be unable to escape this eerie situation. He tried to find any possible escape route, but the surrounding darkness was like an invisible wall, firmly trapping him in this lonely and desperate land.
"Damn it! Who are you?! Why are you doing this to me?!" Mario's voice carried despair and anger as he desperately sought to fight back, hoping to find an opponent and uncover the truth behind it all. However, no matter how he shouted, it seemed that this space only contained him, with nothing but endless darkness and silence responding to him.
In the end, Mario sat helplessly on the ground, holding his head in his hands, feeling deeply hopeless. At that moment, he began to reflect on his past actions, filled with countless "what ifs" and regrets. But all the regret and self-questioning seemed too late, as he was trapped in his own fate, unable to escape.
Mario collapsed in this boundless darkness, his body curling up weakly, holding himself tightly. Tears silently streamed down from his eyes, moistening the dust. In this space without light or hope, his crying sounded unusually mournful and desperate. He felt an unprecedented loneliness and panic, a fear from the depths of his heart, an extreme terror of the unknown.
Mario's tears seeped into the cracked earth, but this place seemed unable to offer him any solace. He cried and shouted, but only darkness responded to him. He began to feel regret, regret for his greed, selfishness, lust, violence... regret for all the wrong choices in his life, but everything seemed too late.
Faced with such an unknown and seemingly endless future, Mario despaired, realizing that besides waiting to starve to death, he seemed to have no other way out. This deep sense of powerlessness and panic enveloped his entire soul, making him deeply feel the fragility and impermanence of life.
In despair, Mario slowly gave up struggling, his crying gradually subsided, and finally turned into a long sigh. He closed his eyes, emptied his mind, and let the darkness completely engulf him. At this moment, his only wish was to find a glimmer of light at the end of this darkness, even if it was insignificant.
Just as Mario was about to give up in despair, a clear, bell-like voice suddenly sounded in his ears, breaking the oppressive silence around him. The voice was gentle and melodious, as if carrying a hint of light and warmth that did not belong to this darkness. Mario suddenly looked up, and although it was still pitch black around him, the voice undoubtedly gave him a glimmer of hope.
"Who? Who is it?" Mario asked in astonishment, his voice echoing in the boundless darkness, but receiving no response.
