……

Anser, you...you are more damnable than fate, what are you doing?

The most obvious improvement in the past three years is this... this shameless flirting method? Playing with the doll, shaping... shaping the channel? You really are...

Calm down, this should be... a good thing.

Three years ago, he regarded me as a friend, and was almost ignorant in that regard, but now he has pure desire for me.

He wants me, which means he hasn't completely put me against him.

...It would be nice if I could get this kind of news in another way.

In addition, under Ansel's design, I was in a dilemma where I could be played around with by him at will.

He actually told that me directly about the gambling... He understood my psychology. I would worry about gains and losses because of that non-existent person, and my thoughts would be led to many wrong places.

Prepare adequately, then oppress, then dominate.

Ansel is now much stronger than the me outside... I can no longer guess what he will do next. Even if I replace the current me, I may not be able to do better than that me.

But winning or losing doesn’t matter, all I want is the answer.

Rather, only when that me completely fails, will Anser be able to...tell the truth.

The twelfth day.

The mass production problem of the floating gun has been solved. I suspect that the reason why the one outside could not be mass-produced before was because of Anther's obstruction... I originally thought so too, and thought that Anther wanted to take advantage of it to further cause me to fall.

But it was such a coincidence that I came to the Alchemy Association to solve the mass production problem, met Ivora, and was finally burned... This whole process was such a coincidence.

As a viewer, I can see that this is Anser's frame-up.

But I couldn't do that, because she was blinded by the non-existent person... She thought Anser wanted to use the Ether Institute to create the mechanical suit, and then the non-existent person solved the mass production problem of the floating cannon in order to fight against the mechanical suit. Seeing the mechanical suit construction workshop in the Ether Institute further verified this idea, and made her believe more that such a person really existed.

It was a really... horrifying design. In three years, Anser had grown to such a sinister level.

If I hadn't been a bystander, I would not be able to escape from it now.

The final result was that I was burned by Ivora outside, and my soul was damaged again, which further solved the problem of memory...

But Anser, are you so interested in the puppet's body? Do you have to use this method to...control my emotions?

It does work, but it's not likable and you really don't look like that kid at all.

...a bad and obscene thing.

Day 27.

War... a war game? Anser, what are you going to do?

If I could have changed you earlier, would you not have been so cruel? The people of the two territories were only used to tame the me outside, and this was even just a process...

Sure enough, I was right. If I had sided with Anser at that time, and lost the opportunity now, the possibility of finding the truth, I would definitely not be able to stop Anser from continuing like this... falling into deeper cruelty and ruthlessness.

It was as if after losing Ansher, I was also sliding step by step into the abyss of indifference, mechanical coldness.

He will destroy himself, and I must stop him.

This game... I hope Anser still retains even a trace of kindness and does not harm the civilians.

……

Nidhogg... this thing, this thing...

The possibility of creating everything by creating some basic unit... This is imitating the power of the Creator of Mr. Flamel, and even mixed with some concepts of the universal ether furnace. Anser is indeed a genius ahead of his time! Alchemical swarm, Nidhogg... Its potential is limitless!

This might, just might be the final piece of the third-stage mechanical equipment!

Just destroying alchemical creations? No, it has the ability to replace all alchemical creations. I, who was outside, had not yet discovered its true value... She was blinded by the war that would destroy the Tower of Babel... She had been completely suppressed and dominated by Anser.

I don't have the resources to conduct experiments and creations on Nidhogg here, so I can only wait for the me outside to wake up and realize the potential of Nidhogg.

Will it become...the strength I need most?

Day 41.

That one out there is driving me crazy.

Ivora gave Babel a chance... No, it should be that she gave Babel a chance at the instruction of Anther, but she refused. She chose to continue the war just because she didn't want to see Babel disbanded.

Is this a choice I would make?

If I... If I had never met Anser, if I had just been buried in research, keeping it closed since my grandfather's death until now, would I also... become like her?

……I can.

I know very well that I will become like that, because I already had this tendency three years ago, but it was far from the point I am at now.

If it weren't for Anser, I would have become this... monster.

And Ansel must have known that the me outside would make this choice, so he deliberately gave this condition.

In his eyes, I am such a cold and rational monster.

Has Anser ever thought about saving me now? Or does he still want me to become his property?

No, don't expect Ansher to save you, Ming Fuluo.

He has been struggling in pain for sixteen years, and no one has ever extended a helping hand to him in these sixteen years. Now it is extremely difficult for him to maintain his fragile sanity. Why do you still want her to save you?

It's you who should save him.

Day 46.

This war must have been under Anser's control throughout, and fortunately no innocent civilians were injured.

...No, judging from the results, Linghu Territory even gained huge benefits. It seems the same is true for Watson Territory?

You are indeed... indeed, deep down, you are still the person I am familiar with, Anser.

You have never committed an atrocity out of sheer malice and cruelty... Great, so great, I still have a chance to change all that.

But the Tower of Babel fell into Anther's hands...it seems that this was his purpose.

Although I have no idea how he did it, judging from the cause and effect, it must have been Ansel's work.

Has he grown to this point? Even the emperor was involved in this matter. If he had not agreed with the emperor in advance to take the Tower of Babel, then he had regarded the emperor as an object to be calculated, and he succeeded.

In just three years... he has become so dangerous. What will he become in a few more years?

Although it seemed terrible to me from the outside that the Tower of Babel had fallen into the hands of Anther, there was actually no better choice. The Tower of Babel once again went from being shaky to being solid and standing tall... I also fell further into Anther's trap.

He openly announced to that me his subsequent plan, which was to train that me into a monster who had completely lost all humanity... a completely open conspiracy.

Next, no matter what I do, I will fall into doubt, and then become more and more hesitant and unable to move forward... Well done, Anser.

She does need a good lesson from you, Anser.

It’s just… you—

You had to resort to this method... Don't you have any other methods? You actually tied me up, used that kind of drug, and held your contracted head in front of me...

you really……

I will get my revenge after I solve your problem.

Day 47.

I witnessed the battle between Xitana and the contemporary leader, Til Bistidos... Flamel's head of power. The sense of oppression was so overwhelming that even if I was just watching from my perspective, I felt overwhelmed.

But Xitana was able to pierce her finger into his heart... Incredible, this is the one chosen by Anser. Her talent in martial arts is truly unparalleled.

I, who was outside, said something in this meeting that I had considered a long time ago. The conflict between the emperor and Mr. Flamel is becoming increasingly intense. If they really go to war, the consequences will be disastrous. Anser must be very clear about this. I have always believed that... he should have been prepared for this.

Because he obviously didn't have a particularly urgent need for Qi Shou, the fact that he could spend a year, no, four years to slowly tame me showed that he was not eager to increase his own strength.

I don’t know how he plans to deal with it, whether I will have time to get involved in this matter, and whether I can provide him with help.

Fiftieth day.

I began to try to influence the memory of the me outside.

After three years, the soul fragments that Lord Flamel used to create me are about to dissipate, and her memories will begin to uncontrollably synchronize with the me of three years ago.

Since Mr. Flamel's creation is truly impeccable... as long as I use enough soul fragments to make up for it, that me is indeed myself, a completely independent soul. Even though I have studied many soul secrets in the past three years, I have to wait until now to influence that me silently without being discovered by Anser.

I succeeded... I can control the order in which her memories awaken to a certain extent, and seem to be able to insert memories of my own making.

Great, this way I can make sure everything goes smoothly.

But something happened that I didn't expect.

Susilun...she came to me and told me that she knew the cause of my grandfather's death, and in exchange, I needed to help her deal with Ivora.

grandfather……

Ansel, ideals, the Tower of Babel, and my grandfather’s death… these are perhaps the four things that drive me to keep living.

...I won't give up this opportunity, because I wouldn't do that now, but could this be Anser's trap?

……

I confessed the matter to Anser, which was the most reasonable and correct choice, but she was still very cautious and did not ask Anser why her grandfather died, because she thought that she could not afford the price of obtaining this information.

I didn’t ask three years ago…but now it seems that it’s because when I lived with Ansel, I let go of too many obsessions and only focused on him and life, and was no longer troubled by the depression and pain of the past.

And not because of anything...seeking answers from Anser would come at a huge cost.

It's so ridiculous, yet so reasonable... The me and Anser outside no longer trust each other at all.

Day seventy-two.

Anser had a maid beside him... no, should I say a servant? A secretary? The girl named Marina, Xitana's sister, gave me a hint outside.

She said Anser had some difficulties.

Of course I know this. I know better than anyone else in this world that Ansher must have her own difficulties, but... why would she tell me about this?

Marina said that she learned about this from Anser's mother. Why would Anser's mother, Ms. Anelisa, tell this to an ordinary person?

Destiny...are you interfering and deliberately pushing it forward?

Assuming that this thing really exists, I have discovered many things in the past three years that may have been caused by it. I cannot perceive it when I am in it, but as a viewer, I can vaguely grasp its "intentionality".

If fate is pushing the me outside to be tamed by Anther, and deliberately pushing for things that both Anther and I expect, then is it Anther's success in taming that me that is beneficial to fate, or is it my success... that is beneficial to fate?

...It's too difficult. Just by thinking about it, I can feel Anser's pain.

Faced with something like this, who could he trust?

He couldn't even trust himself.

I was outside and had already noticed the blurring and fragmentation of my memory because of Marina's words. She began to further doubt the truth of that year and fell further into Ansel's trap.

I don’t know what Anser will do, and I don’t know what fate will do, but I must... I must go on.

Eightieth day.

I started looking into the cause of my grandfather's death, and Anser got involved. Was this also his plan? I don't know.

...Leiden, my father, actually went to my grandfather's old house.

There is no reason for him to be the murderer. Neither his motive nor his ability is possible, so... is he going to his grandfather's former residence to pay tribute?

I haven't seen him for a long time. Father is just a meaningless noun to me. Even now, I still resent him, and my dissatisfaction and hatred towards him must be no less.

I had a conversation with... my father and mother. What's going on? I can feel that they seem to... seem to have always cared about me. Their difficulties don't seem fake, but their betrayal of grandpa is also real. What's going on...

I have indeed never considered them because they think I am abnormal, but my grandfather sees me as his hope for the future... In this case, how could I still recognize them?

But how could they...

Ansel interrupted my conversation with my father and mother. He would not do such a meaningless thing. Do my father and mother really care about me?

No, don't let this bother you. If you want to know the answer, just wait until everything is over and face them. They can wait for me, but Anser can't wait for others.

...did that kind of thing again.

The me outside had only met Ansel a few times, but I became more and more emotional. Ansel was melting that me... just like three years ago.

Only when I am with him can I truly live like a human being.

Just... forget it.
