This is my revenge!

The protagonist in the article was apparently physically tortured, but in reality, after showing goodwill, he was met with nothing but malice.

Based on this deeper core, I did not write in detail at the beginning of the article about how he was abused. These plots were mentioned in a few sentences. I even simplified them by using two work titles ("The Sound of the Wind" and "Ajin").

Furthermore, on this basis, he repeatedly mentioned that his "heart" was dead and his enthusiasm had been extinguished.

Rita's last hope was extinguished that time.

As such, he is obviously not keen on enjoying the emotional value brought by killing, but is more inclined to how to destroy the heart.

Killing has become a means to an end.

Therefore, almost all the killings in the text are for two purposes:

One is to distract the attention of the protagonists.

The second is to obtain the points of "World Destroyer" efficiently.

This also serves the purpose of setting up a scheme to harm someone's heart.

The protagonist's goal has been very clear from the beginning and has never changed.

To make an inappropriate analogy, this is like setting up the set for the script and buying equipment.

The protagonist in the article... in fact, long before heteronomy, he had already instinctively felt extremely disgusted with his enemies and even the hypocrisy of the entire world.

Furthermore, how to arrange and plan the means of destroying the heart... This also corresponds to the theme of "theater" and "performance" of the Ruler of Domination.

The third reason is entirely from a writing perspective.

Well... let's ignore the issues of scale and review for now, assuming that all the plots can pass the review, then if the protagonist really keeps killing people... Indeed, this kind of plot will be very exciting in the early stage, but the disadvantage is that it will quickly make readers enter a period of aesthetic fatigue.

It may not take long, even less than the forty chapters I have written now... then book lovers will feel indifferent, like "Ah, another kill", "Who's the next one? It doesn't matter, haha".

Moreover, the protagonist is very clear that simply killing people will only turn the guilt in the hearts of his enemies into hatred towards him.

This kind of "regret" is not heartbreaking at all.

Not to mention, writing this thing will never pass the review.

On the contrary, a plot that tends to be heart-wrenching will make everyone subconsciously think about some philosophical questions while slowly getting involved.

The emotional value aroused in this way is undoubtedly higher.

The positive and negative feedback everyone is giving now...these responses fully prove this point.

The second question: Will the protagonist be whitewashed later?

Well, regarding this issue, people are not just concerned, but worried. I even feel a little PTSD.

Here, I can say with certainty: the protagonist is the villain, and will always be the villain, and will remain the villain until the end. Absolutely, absolutely... absolutely, absolutely, there will be no whitewashing. (Repeated emphasis.jpg)

First of all, I personally hate this so-called reversal.

Secondly, everyone knows the famous special effects studio Tsuburaya!

The fundamental reason why Tsuburaya almost went bankrupt while filming "Ultraman Leo" was not because it was too dark and cruel and scared children.

But this drama was dark and cruel in the beginning. After discouraging a wave of people, the top leaders kept jumping around and suddenly returned to the original plot style. As a result, the ending became dark and cruel again.

So those who liked dark and cruel movies and those who didn't liked dark and cruel movies all ran away.

send!

Look, the negative example is right here, I won’t do anything stupid.

So, I hope everyone can have a little more confidence in me, and then... I'll give everyone a little bit of a heads-up.

That is: if in the subsequent plot, the text suddenly describes that the protagonist personally says that he has forgiven someone, the protagonist suddenly becomes gentle and considerate to someone, has great tolerance, or appears to be very magnanimous, and does nothing when being bullied, etc.... Don't worry, this is just because the plot has not been updated to the later stages.

Of course, when it comes to this kind of plot, I will probably speed up the update and get through it quickly so that everyone won’t have to worry and have wild thoughts.

However, my personal typing speed is not very fast. If I am really slow, or if the update on a certain day happens to be stuck on a similar plot, please bear with me.

If other readers are too lazy to read this, and don’t know that I have made a promise here, please read this section and remind other unaware readers in the thread. Thank you OTZ

The third question: Does that "non-existent memory" mean that there is another protagonist who is the "savior player"?

No.

To put it bluntly, that entire paragraph was just to build up the emotions for the reversal in the last line of that chapter.

And some subtle foreshadowing for the second volume.

I won't come up with some clichéd plot like "there are two protagonists, good versus evil."

First of all, this goes against the theme of this article.

Secondly...according to my own opinion.

The protagonist of the first volume is the "performer" who is still in the game.

And starting from the second volume, he became the "chief director" who jumped out of the stage.

Previous civilization VS current civilization, the confrontation between characters from different standpoints, and their inner entanglements, struggles, and even transformation based on their respective beliefs.

This is what I want to write.

As mentioned in the article, this is a grand performance set in two worlds (eras)...Okay, it sounds a bit childish to say this, I hope I can write it well.

------

The fourth question: Will the protagonist go to other worlds later?

A: Most likely, after all, the core of the world is far more than just the three-collapse, but it is better to finish writing the pre-civilization chapter first. If you take too big a step, you will easily get into trouble.

Fifth question: Why is the protagonist so stupid at the beginning? He overestimated his own abilities and got screwed. Doesn't that mean he deserves it?

Haha, I've seen more than one reader rant about this already.

I can only say that it’s okay to call the protagonist stupid, a clown, or a bootlicker, but... don’t really say “he deserves it”.

I remember when I was watching the anime "Hunter x Hunter" a few years ago, there was a plot in it that left a deep impression on me.

During the Hunter Exam, the protagonist Leorio (who was studying medicine) was deceived by the rookie killer Dongba, who took advantage of his kindness and tricked him by claiming he was unwell. Dongba then sarcastically said, "The one who got tricked should blame himself for being too stupid."

Kurapika, who is also a member of the protagonist group, kicked him over and retorted: "The act of cheating itself is wrong."

In this regard, I think it’s the same if we replace “deception” with “persecution”.

And... I'd also like to mention the inspiration for this book.

The title of Chapter 41 is "FAKEit", which is the theme song composed by Hiroyuki Sawano for "Fate: Strange Fake".

If you listen to this song, especially pay attention to the lyrics, you will understand what it is about.

Well, I'll just post the lyrics of my own exaggerated translation here, and you can just look for the corresponding key points in it.

I believe that after listening to this song and reading the general meaning of the lyrics, everyone should know what I want to write.

Below are the lyrics. It will be more immersive when you listen to the song and read them!

There are some clues to Volume 2 here...

------

Imitating the empty talk of others

Deceiving yourself into believing that the story will follow your fantasy

Little do you know, you are totally wrong

A scheming battle of offense and defense

I don't want to be fooled anymore

Who is playing the hypocrite?

I am a bloodthirsty butcher, and I am also a walking corpse.

Get out of my way. I'm not one of those who love charity.

The downturned corners of the mouth reveal scheming

Like a floating phantom, giving orders

The wall has ears

Don't think you can still breathe

You no longer have the right to remain silent

So, accept your judgment.

No more whitewashing fakes?

Do you think just bowing will solve the problem?

When the "sins" burn out the "firewood", no one can protect themselves

No more whitewashing fakes?

Do you think just bowing will solve the problem?

Pain will be with you

Drink this cup of "judgment"

Damn it, just destroy the enemy in front of you

Let them offer proof of being a fool as if begging for salvation

Only my soul will never fade away

Just destroy the enemies in front of you

Let endless suspicions ruthlessly erode God's will

Only my soul will never fade away

-------------

The ugly worship of the past

Now there are only harsh words

Vicious lies

Fear makes them stronger

But you've come this far

Come and accept your judgment.

No more whitewashing fakes?

Do you think just bowing will solve the problem?

The melody of karma turns into the tone of disaster

No more whitewashing fakes?

Do you think just bowing will solve the problem?

Pain will be with you

Drink this cup of "judgment"

Come, just destroy the enemy in front of you

Let them offer proof of being a fool as if begging for salvation.

Only my soul will never fade away

Just destroy the enemies in front of you

This obsession is subtly eroding God's will

Only my soul will never fade away
