I, who advocate giving up, feel like a disqualified person

The work is based on his own life and can be understood as an autobiographical light novel... but it is a bit self-indulgent.

All the principles and statements mentioned in the book are my own summary.

Well, maybe in a few years, I won’t have this idea anymore. After all, I never thought that I would be like this now.

The final outcome has been determined, but how things will develop is still unknown.

In short, please support me and watch with me quietly as this high school student named Yi Shajik tells the story of his love for giving up.

I've applied for a contract, but I don't know if it will be successful, nor do I know what it will bring. I simply want more people to see my work.

Regarding the update schedule... I think good writing and plots need time to mature. If I were to water down the update to 3,000 words a day just to please you, that would be too unfair to your continued support, right?

Passing through the tunnel, there is a snowy country or a blue sky with white clouds

Chapter 0: Through the tunnel, is it a snowy country or a blue sky and white clouds?

The existence of tunnels makes the long and boring journey more bearable.

If I hadn't looked out the car window at the upcoming tunnel entrance in advance, I would have been more or less scared when suddenly enveloped in the unique darkness of the tunnel.

We who are used to being under bright sunshine will always encounter tunnels, whether on the road of reality or on the road of life.

So, what will appear before your eyes when you rush out of the darkness of the tunnel?

....................

The three-day and two-night training camp has ended, and I can finally go home and rest. Dealing with various situations in the past few days has made me feel very tired. This is simply not an outing for fun.

(The next training camp chapter will appear in the form of a special episode, because the following training camp plot is irrelevant to the main storyline, everyone can just treat it as entertainment.

Sheji: Actually, I don’t think the so-called serious stories are that serious.

Author of this book: Me too.)

"I heard that in order to get us back as quickly as possible, the car avoided the traffic jam and took a different route from the way we came. Sheji, are you happy?"

Liu Yan in front of me was as excited as ever, which made me wonder if my previous words had turned on some special switch in him, and then overloaded his future excitement.

If this is true, please tell me from some future person who knows him, will this guy still be as easily excited as he is now in ten or twenty years?

"It's just a different route, why are you making such a fuss?" I looked at him impatiently.

"wrong!"

Liu Yan shook his head firmly, then put on a serious expression:

"Mr. Lu Xun once said, 'There are no roads in the world, but if you walk in the right way, it becomes a road.'"

It's "When many people walk on it, it becomes a road," right? I'd like to correct him, but I'll just listen to what he has to say.

"However, the right and wrong of a road are not absolute. Only when there is a clear destination can the road be divided into right and wrong."

"Well, then what?"

"Do you think a car taking the wrong route can reach its destination?"

"Hmm? What?"

"I just checked the GPS navigation on my phone and found that the route seems to be wrong."

well?

Then why are you so excited?

....................

“I didn’t go the wrong way…”

I calmed down and looked at Liu Yan's GPS navigation instructions.

"No way, I didn't follow the instructions here at all."

"Well, the navigation system will adjust its instructions based on the road you're taking. Relying too much on it will only lead to trouble." I paused. "Also, Mr. Lu Xun never said, 'If you take the right path, you'll find the way.'"

Looking at Liu Yan's bewildered face, I could only shrug my shoulders.

"Well... in other words, we can't just rely on the opinions of our predecessors, nor can we simply follow a plan that isn't very reliable.

Many people believe that the successful paths of their predecessors are valuable and worth learning from, and so they blindly and rigidly follow their path. For example, Gabriel García Márquez pioneered magical realism, which became a benchmark for modern fiction. Many authors consider themselves modern-day Márquez, yet their works rarely reveal their own ideas, let alone their literary style. Therefore, being confined to the perspectives of predecessors only limits one's own creativity.

"I don't understand." Liu Yan answered me briefly.

"Oh..." I don't understand...

"Who is Marquez?"

“It doesn’t matter if I don’t know…”

At this moment, darkness suddenly surrounded me. I was of course startled at first, and then I realized that I had entered a tunnel.

Come to think of it, there seems to be a saying that goes, "Through the long tunnel across the county border is the snow country, and the night sky is all white."

Without fancy words, but using only plain language, this sentence has become an immortal classic. The reason is probably the charm of the scenery it describes. The vast expanse of white snow, just by describing it, can convey infinite charm and beauty.

"In short, what I want to say is that people should have their own ideas, rather than stealing other people's ideas," I added.

It was a little dark in the car, so I couldn't see Liu Yan's expression clearly. But I could imagine that he must still have a confused look on his face.

"My own thoughts...ah, whatever. I don't understand them anyway."

Okay, forget it.

.....................

However, is it common for successful people to imitate others? But there are also differences among imitators. Some have lost their own essence in the process of imitation, just like after reading the sentence mentioned above, they feel that at the end of all long tunnels is a vast white snow country under the night sky.

In fact, after passing through the long tunnel, there is not only the snow country,

There are also the blue sky and white clouds that feel particularly familiar when I see them again even though I haven’t seen them for just a while.

Although it is a little unbelievable, today is just so ordinary

Although the first episode was a little unbelievable, today is just so ordinary.

...........................................

"What is your faith?!"

Facing the fully armed Crusaders surrounding me, I couldn't help but ask them:

"Freedom? Justice? Peace? Or have you given up on thinking and are only mechanically and cold-bloodedly carrying out orders?!"

There was no answer, only the sound of bullets being loaded and a shield with a bright red cross raised towards me.

"boom!"

The first shot rang out.

Then, like a chain reaction, a burst of gunfire rang in my ears.

However, not a single bullet could hit me...

【Claude Spell Shield】

start up.

I raised my right hand, and the golden ring on my finger emitted a dazzling light.

Light Spell Activation: [Lake Radiance]

.........“Snap”.........

Oh? Oh? Hey hey hey?

Oh my god! Why is my computer screen black?!

Ahhhh! I haven't finished writing my novel yet! There's a power outage!

Why is there a power outage? All the words I worked so hard to type are gone! It’s not summer, how can there be a power outage?

Because I haven't updated the training camp for a few days, if I don't update today, Xiaoye will definitely come to urge me...

Well...it seems that there is nothing wrong...

No, how can I let Xiaoye keep urging me to do this? Maybe my parents will mistake her for my girlfriend. No...

I grabbed my phone and checked the time

【13: 32】

I don't know when the power will be restored, so I might as well find a place to finish writing my novel...

...................

The first thing Ye Jin said when he saw me after opening the door was:

"Brother?! What are you doing here?"

Shouldn't we say "Come in"?

"Ah... because there's a power outage at home and I need to use my computer to do something, so I came to your house to borrow your computer."

With that, I went into Ye Jin's house on my own.

"Aren't your parents home?" I asked.

"You're not at home. What do you want to do?" Ye Jin frowned.

"I asked to borrow your computer... what else can I do with it? Is it in your room?"

As I said that, I walked towards her room.

"You rude fellow! Stop!"

An unfamiliar female voice came from the sofa behind me.

Hmm? Ye Jin’s friend... But his attitude towards people is too bad, well... much better than Lin Quanchuan.

I turned around and saw the guy who made me stop. He had long blond hair. Was it dyed or natural?

At this time, she was standing on the sofa with a menacing look, pointing at me with an angry expression. She wasn't very tall, about the same height as Ye Jin, so she must be in junior high school... She was wearing pink pajamas with a rabbit pattern on them...

"Hello...Hello..."

I don't know how to react, but I'll just say hello.

"Humph, you vulgar people don't deserve my return gift," she seemed very angry.

"How dare you try to enter the boudoir of a pure girl..."

Hey...Your way of speaking is so strange. Are you in the second grade of junior high school?

"That's my sister's room, right? What's wrong with me going in? She often goes into my room." I responded, and then asked Ye Jin:

"Can I come in and use the computer?"

"No."

"Um... why?"

Ye Jin held his forehead and answered me helplessly:

"This is a young girl's room. How can the opposite sex enter casually?"

"You don't have the self-awareness to enter my room without permission. Besides, we are brother and sister. I won't be interested in your room. I just want to use the computer."

"Hehehe, stupid human, do you think I can't see through your dirty heart? You are so naive."

This blonde girl in pajamas suddenly said something so cheesy that I was stunned for a moment.

"My [Eye of Insight] can see through other people's thoughts, especially yours! You're using the excuse of using the computer, but you're really just planning to do something weird in your sister's room!"

...I didn't want to waste time talking to this chuunibyou, so I ignored her and walked towards Ye Jin's room.

Then I suddenly heard footsteps, but before I could figure out what was going on, everything went dark...

It's really... congratulations...
