I already said this is not a life simulator!

[It is remarkable that you have achieved this step]

【Even so, will you continue? 】

Why are you wasting so much time?

Like you said, I alone am not enough to save everyone, but...can't more people help?

[…Oh? Interesting, you seem to have discovered something? ]

I won’t tell you! But that might take a lot of time… Tsk, anyway, don’t worry about it!

I said that I would let the ending of this story be rewritten until I was satisfied... Now, I am not satisfied!

and so……

Come again!!!

[Heh…very good]

[So greedy, so unsatisfied, but... this belief is indeed worthy of praise, this desire for happiness is worthy of praise]

[Then, let’s keep moving forward]

[You will get everything you want, so... just keep moving forward]

Thus, the stagnant [time] began to flow.

[Time] continues to move forward, while things move backward, and everything starts to trace back with him as the reference point.

Starlight appeared and transformed into a piece of paper covered with unique words, and then silently merged into his body.

[Ending: Giving the world "liberation", achieved]

[Entry: Record, effective]

【Anyway, welcome to a new "day"! 】

--------

rustle……

It was the sound of pages turning, and this time they were turning very decisively, as if they couldn't wait to start the next "story".

It’s not that the “story” just now is not attractive enough, it’s just that... I just know what I should do.

Although this may take a lot of time and even cost a lot.

But...it doesn't matter.

Progress always comes with sacrifice. Isn't it natural to sacrifice something for an outcome that satisfies oneself?

After all... this is something only you can do.

…………

"Ahem... I'm back..."

Xi Wang coughed a few times out of habit, stared at the sky for a while, then he gathered his thoughts and curled up in the corner to sit.

Then there was a long silence.

Put your hand on your lips, press your lower lip with the back of your thumb, squeeze your upper lip with your fingertips, and press it against the knuckles of your index finger. Press your nails on the soft lips, and feel a slight pain.

Although this time the [ending] was successfully changed, and even the direction of the world was completely distorted, but...

"It's a bit...unpleasant."

Xiwang murmured in a low voice.

He did not obtain any past memories from the [Ocean/Mother], and his recognition of his [blood relatives] and Skadi was only possible through that weak connection.

In addition, although his relationships with Sakura and Eden progressed smoothly, even a little too smoothly, due to the remnants of the past, but... they ultimately did not come to fruition.

This was both because he was accommodating Weiwei and because of his own problems... Just like he said at the beginning, he should have liked and loved her to his heart's content, and that would have been fine, but in the end he still became timid.

Even the choice of life was the same... His hesitation led Elini to the operating table by the "Fire Moth" and also caused Narcissa/Rosemary to suffer harm. This kind of man-made suffering was unnecessary and avoidable.

Maybe... I should be more resolute, and be more open-minded about people and life... Just like Mebius said, the definition of people should not be limited to this.

Of course, more importantly... this [ending] was not what he wanted.

"You can... do better."

Xiwang muttered to himself in a low voice.

His advantage is that he can accumulate strength from the past, become stronger, and be able to start over again and again.

"So... this isn't a simulator..."

Xi Wang sighed like this and for the first time faced the thing he had been avoiding.

No, it would be better to say that he knew it from the beginning. Ever since the [first time], he and Sakura have always maintained a connection; and since the [second time], Aponia's attitude towards him; not to mention after the [third time], his feelings for Eden were directly condensed into a colorful [entry], allowing the two of them to meet and know each other forever, and in the end... fall in love.

In addition, there are [blood relatives] who always accompany me, and [ocean/mother] who loves me too much...

Everything proves that this is not a simulator at all.

All the past [rounds] have actually happened and truly exist.

What he gained was not the so-called "memories" in the [simulator], but everything he had truly experienced.

And every time he [started over], it meant that he denied the possibility of a future and the people who would live in that future... Perhaps in a sense, every time he chose to [start over], he killed countless people.

"........."

Xi Wang lowered his head and looked at his hands... Perhaps he had never escaped the ending of the "First Time". He had actually completely become the "Final Ruler", constantly denying the future of human civilization and destroying it in a "retrospective" way...

Perhaps, self-destruction is a good choice...

"call……"

Xi Wang clenched his fists, closed his eyes, and readjusted his breathing, adjusting the heavy thoughts in his mind and the pressure in his heart.

“…We can’t just give up.”

Xiwang encouraged himself in this way.

Don't dwell on the past, just remember it, and then... move forward more firmly.

Just as "time" only moves forward, it continues to move forward, carrying with it everything that has settled in the past.

Then... turn it all into what you expect.

"Then... let's check the harvest."

Xi Wang spoke calmly as he called up the [Event Board], ready to examine his achievements this time... The overall direction of the world has become distorted this time, but he did discover some things and had some ideas based on them, but now... he still needs a little clue to confirm.

If that was the case... then he knew what to do.

………………

[In this future, you have achieved the following]

[The “Two Sides” of a Person]: Because you have learned some conflicting knowledge, in addition to your original appearance, you also have a threatening “mask” to protect yourself in dangerous situations, but you seem to use it only in extreme situations.

[A childhood sweetheart who is completely in love with you...?]: Your relationship with Wei Wei is amazing. It is hard to imagine that you two are childhood sweethearts and you don't have any romantic feelings at all... By the way, did Wei Wei's feelings for you become more and more morbid in the later period?

[Love at first sight?] After you met Sakura, you quickly became closer to her thanks to that wonderful connection.

[Mutual(?) Love]: The person you like also likes you...but I always feel like something is wrong?

[Friends of Women]: You maintain very good relationships with quite a few women, and you are even very close to some of them.

[Fire-chasing Moth]:

[Your color? Like...]: Omitted

[Ore Disease Treatment]: With the joint efforts of you and your companions, you have found a way to solve the problem of Honkai erosion.

[One of the developers of "Originium"]: Although the emergence of this thing is not mainly due to you, the "song" you provided is an indispensable cornerstone.

["Rescue Knights"]: You formed a special rescue team and made a great impact, helping and benefiting many people.

[The First Fusion Warrior]: You became the first person to undergo fusion warrior surgery, and due to special reasons, your body became extremely special.

[Blood relatives reunion]: No matter what, you still remember her, you are blood relatives, no matter what, you are connected by blood.

[The body is a fetter on the spirit]: Your vision is affected, and you are able to witness the souls and spirits of people who are trapped in the flesh and suffering from misfortune and suffering.

[So-called "liberation": You liberate people from their fleshly bodies and enable them to attain "liberation."

[The Final Ruler of World Destruction/Salvation (?)]: You destroyed civilization, but you also saved the world. This is difficult to define, and people can only think about the difference themselves... But no matter what, they survived.

………………

"As expected..."

Quickly skimming through the achievements, Xi Wang looked quickly at the newly added entries in the [Entries].

[Cure for "Ore Disease"] (Blue): You and your companions developed the "Ore Disease Cure", which saved most people who would otherwise die from "Honkai Disease" and indirectly promoted the emergence of "Originium".

Effect: You will gain a certain amount of inspiration when researching and developing "Ore Disease Treatment", and a small amount of inspiration when researching "Originium".

"Very good, I got it."

Xiwang felt a little happier when he saw this entry.

"And with inspiration correction... maybe I can research this method myself? This way I can get it done early, as long as I learn more..."

"I want to know what to learn... As for the foundation, [Song] can be learned by the entry, so I don't need to worry about it... I can't neglect the knowledge related to medicine... After that, I have to learn the knowledge related to biology and pharmacy from Mebius... and engineering and materials science from Velvet..."

"…It's bad. Do I have to learn so much?"

The corners of Xiwang's mouth twitched slightly.

"...Forget it, I can only push forward a little bit more by myself, and then I'd better look for someone to help me."

There is a limit to one person's power, at least for now.

Then the next one...

[What is the boundary between life and death?] (Purple): As the first person to undergo fusion warrior surgery, your existence has become somewhat strange due to your special circumstances, and you are even called [Frankenstein]. In addition, your vision has changed, all of which has led to a new understanding of life and death.

Effect: All aspects of your body are slightly enhanced, and your compatibility with the [Honkai Beast Gene] is slightly increased; your spirit is moderately enhanced and becomes more resilient.

"I thought it was 'liberation', or meditation or something like that... After all, I saw those former 'Angels' before..."

"But the effect is very good, it strengthens my physical and mental fitness...but I don't feel it at all."

Xi Wang clenched his fists, closed his eyes and felt it for a while, but he didn't seem to find any signs of enhancement in himself.

"And the compatibility with Honkai Beast genes has increased... So far, it seems that all I have accepted are [Angels], right? And almost all of them are unique, and only I can bear them. Those [Angels] are almost all coming for me..."

In other words, Xi Wang doesn't need to improve his compatibility at all, because the one who is most compatible with him is always the [Angel], as if it was pre-destined.

...No, maybe there will be some difference, but we will know it later.

"So... is it true..."

And this was undoubtedly a clue, an evidence, an evidence to prove his guess.

After facing up to the fact that all of this was not a [simulator], but had actually happened and was already part of the [past], Xiwang had many speculations.

Subconsciously, I opened the [notepad] and started writing down what I was thinking.

For example...is the so-called [entry] really something "newly acquired" rather than something he already possessed?

After all, the generation of each entry is related to what he has experienced, but there is no specific pattern...but most of the entries are useful.

Xi Wang subconsciously looked at the [entries] he owned.

It can be said that the two entries [Record] and [God's Favored Person] are at work. After all, the former is the basis for him to obtain new entries, and although the latter has never been seen to take effect, the improvement in luck may be passive?

But...it's still not right, or this is also a doubtful point.

[People favored by God], people favored by [Him]... If [records] were formed based on the past, then this entry would be completely unnecessary.

Because the second time, He called Himself the Younger One, and almost every angel called themselves ■■■...

So when [Gabriel] addressed [■■■] the first time, was he also a [young person]?

In other words, he might have been targeted a long time ago, so why was such an entry only formed after he met Him for the [second time]?

Was it because he finally discovered this thing that this term was formed, or was it because he did something to earn this term?

There are other entries as well. What are the reasons for their formation? Or... the conditions and reasons for the effectiveness of the [record] entry, and how are the new entries condensed?
