"As I said before, even taboo objects or gods at the multiverse level are just shells in front of me, because the source of all of that... is just a setting, a plot determined by me."

"But the selection of new elements is not under my control; it is by some mortal outside the fourth wall."

Hebrew was stunned again. After thinking for a moment, he guessed, "You're not talking about that guy named He Yu, are you?"

"He is indeed one of the elements." The strange entity replied in an instant and took over the topic. "But unfortunately, this child was too sought after. I only taught him for less than a cosmic year before he was taken away by someone else who had the ability to set the settings."

"Ah, so you were forced to choose me, right? Thank you so much." Hebrew felt he shouldn't have asked that question, but perhaps it was fate, something he couldn't escape.

"Whoever it is, being able to come here is all due to the instructions of the 'person behind the scenes.' As one of the few people who control the settings, it is natural for me to do my job."

“Like the ‘plot setting,’ the ‘garbage recycling station’ is also the foundation of this outline.” The strange thing paused, and for the first time, it sighed in a rather human way, and continued, “Alas… you are a lucky child, able to overcome multiple spatial obstacles to be delivered to me, but the person who collided with you did not have such a good opportunity.”

"Whoa—" Hebrew raised an eyebrow, already knowing who the other person was talking about. "You wouldn't be talking about...Stanford, would you?"
