Chapter 267 A Glimpse
You've arrived.
I will not apologize.
This is your own fault, darling.
None of this had anything to do with you.
How pitiful, so pitiful. So you were a victim too.
I'm about to cry, I really swear.
"I'm sorry I had to do that."
"I'm sorry you think I'm crazy."
"Because... I saw it."
"That bleak, lifeless future where everyone has lost all hope."
We will not die.
“I saw many fragmented images. Eoubs never existed, nor did those strange taboos. Anru found me a new job—like a waiter, where all I had to do every day was deliver meals to some powerful people and cut pastries—with an expensive knife.”
"Then she shoved the knife into my mouth and said, 'Why don't you just die? The first step to escaping this cycle is to accept death.'"
You two are a very close couple.
But Eoubs no longer exist, and you have lost your reason to live.
There are only two characters.
[Completely unpopular.]
[Including this...book.]
"The blade was scraping against my upper jaw, almost to my throat—I was really afraid she would kill me with one forceful movement."
"We will not die."
[That's what your dear Anru said.]
"We will die."
I said this.
You don't care if this thing scratches your throat, you don't need to worry about that. Of course, you shouldn't cry and back away when the other person is yelling at you.
You need to think about how to fight back. You only need to consider one thing: how to seize the opportunity, use everything you have, and survive.
Live on from the hands of your loved ones.
Then I saw her cry.
“This won’t be real death,” An Ru said. She had always been used as a tool to amplify the characteristics of others, and that was the power of the forbidden object.
“She is very useful, in every way—to the elites in the salon.”
"To be honest, I have no feelings for her."
Gu Heng reached out, grasped the knife handle, and let it slice along his cheek—just as he had done for decades when cutting pastries.
"You're such a pathetic wretch."
"You wouldn't understand how I feel."
"And then you'll just die like that, without knowing why."
"Amplification ability... What a great power! I know I can save everyone."
You have to believe me.
I don't want to believe you.
You have to believe me.
We are no longer trusted, and I'm sorry.
“I want to follow Bel Hera, I want to follow Sheen, to witness their suffering as they struggle to escape Sunset Hill.”
"I have to maintain that kind of observation."
"But I'm not an observer."
"Come die with me."
"We can definitely escape. You have to trust me. Who else can you trust besides me?"
The knife sliced across your cheek, so smoothly, so easily.
[This is truly a relief.]
Please, please, please, please, please just say it!
“This is no one’s world,” An Ru said to me while crying. “We are just insignificant supporting characters. Did she see that too? She must have seen it too.”
"I feel so sad."
"Then an overwhelming sadness overwhelmed me."
“I found myself nowhere.”
I showed it to you.
But you can't see anything.
What a pity, such a shame.
My dear, that pathetic, laughable garbage living in a book.
"I got lost in it."
...
...
Ah, of course.
What you are seeing is only a part of the chaos within the multiverse.
I know everything because I created you, you idiots!
Eoubs is just hell, it's that simple, and I've told everyone that.
I created you, so you must put on a good show for me, right?
Stop peeking, 659.
You know you're watching me.
I'm waiting for you, sweetheart.
...
...
The light was left behind again.
Darkness engulfed everything.
Am I awake?
What did I just see? Am I walking? Who am I following? Where are we going? What happened along the way?
Why do I have no memory of anything?
When I came to my senses...
Gu Heng subconsciously stared at the road ahead—it was so dark that he could see the lights above the ceiling were broken, shattered deep inside—and there were rows of small handprints along the edges, like those left by a child—he didn't want to know what kind of monster's traces those were.
This is the shortest route to the exit.
He recalled some memories; that's exactly what An Ru had said.
"It's dangerous here."
Gu Heng said he found his voice was extremely hoarse, as if his mother had been screaming for hours.
"I know it's dangerous here, but there's no other way."
The other party didn't even ask him how he woke up—perhaps Gu Heng had been following along all along, but he couldn't remember. He felt like two rolls of film were forcibly tied together, forced to share their different inner contents.
