"I'm afraid I'm a little sorry to say this—perhaps it's a good thing you weren't found. After all, the empire's territory and power had been redrawn at that time. If you had been found at that time, not only would you not be saved, you might have suffered even more than being trapped in the birdcage—of course, this is just my subjective opinion. After all, I don't know exactly what kind of pain you endured in the birdcage. If it bothers you, I apologize..."
"..." Chu Shangli shook his head: "Then, since your previous master was addicted to the SL system, you should have seen my ending more than once, right?"
"That being said, your ending is like a fixed plot. I've never seen any changes. I even thought it wouldn't change, that the plot was already locked in without any external control... So when I discovered that my new master was you, I was quite surprised—" the system whispered, "No, not only was I surprised that you were my master, but I was also surprised by your abilities. I thought you were a loser, but you turned out to be a prodigy on par with my previous masters. So, your previous actions didn't seem to be due to stupidity, but rather to a genius's extreme misunderstanding of the world."
Is your ending fixed?
So if my own ending is fixed, doesn’t it mean that the endings of the Chu family and the Weisheng family are also fixed?
"Does that mean that every time Chu Moyin—my sister—will be the big winner?"
"Ah, ah, come to think of it, we said before that I would reveal more information to you only when our favorability reaches 90, right? But our favorability value hasn't increased at all."
The number on the favorability meter returned to "7".
"Well, forget it then—I'll wait until my favorability level increases—"
"No, you don't need to. Consider it a gift from me—and the 90% favorability I mentioned earlier refers to all the confidential information I've stored in the cloud. It's perfectly fine to reveal even small, intricate details like this that are related to you, Master. Consider it the price I pay for freely reading your mind. The correct answer to the question just now is—"
The system's light flashed twice before Chu Shangli's eyes——
A big red "X" appeared before my eyes.
"The correct answer is wrong! Miss Chu Moyin doesn't always become a big winner. It should be said that in most cases she is a medium winner - but because her most desired wish was not realized, she can even be considered a loser - although she won on the surface, she never got what she wanted -"
"What does my sister want?"
"Who knows? It's definitely not ambition, power, or money. Since you've disappeared before, witnessed the death of your fiancé, the downfall of the Chu family, and the theft of power, you know that for Chu Moyin, most of what she wants can be grasped with her ability. However, the goals she pursued were not so easy to achieve - and ultimately, she did fail."
“…”
Chu Shangli suddenly thought of Chu Moyin's words about "cultivating opponents" -
"So, what Sister wants is a rival who can rival her?"
"Isn't this what Miss Chu Moyin said to you? But——"
The system flashed twice, still showing a red "X".
"Miss Chu Moyin may seem very powerful in your eyes, but she cannot be called the best in the empire. Miss Chu Moyin herself knows that such arrogant statements are just to perfunctory you—"
