It was 11:46 p.m. on May 11, and time was running out to finish my Gospel homework.

All members of the funeral office gathered in the living room, quietly waiting for Gospel to hand in its first answer sheet.

"Dad, what's that outside?"

Ash squinted his eyes and looked at the giant light curtain standing in the distance in the city center. The amazing thing was that when he focused his attention, his eyesight suddenly became very good, and he could see clearly even the light curtain several kilometers away.

"That's the city announcement light curtain."

An Nan huddled in a red leather soft chair. She was wearing pink and purple pajamas and a nightcap. She held a cup of hot chocolate milk in her hand and licked it slowly like a kitten. "It has a 'focusing' miracle. No matter how far away you are, as long as you look over, you can clearly see the contents of the light screen. It is only used on major festivals."

"As a weaving festival that happens once every fifty years, it is undoubtedly a major festival."

The meticulously dressed butler Pan Ji said: "This is actually a remnant of the old times. Fifty years ago, gospel equipment was not cheap enough for everyone to own one. At that time, there were even "shared gospels" and "gospel inquiry booths"... So this kind of city light curtain that can be widely advertised came into being and became a tradition in a few decades. But in fact, according to the current popularity of gospel equipment, city light curtains no longer have any need to exist."

"I really like this kind of outdated and redundant things, which are full of historical sedimentation." Igulla sat at the dining table, shaking the ice cubes in the wine glass: "The most lovely and meaningful thing about history is that it is outdated and redundant."

Harvey sat in the farthest corner, smoking a cat grass cigarette silently, as if he was excluded. But there was a coffin next to him, so the situation now should be that he and the coffin excluded everyone else here.

Ash sat on another red leather chair. Liz wanted to sit there too, but her butt couldn't squeeze past him, so she had to sit at the dining table in disappointment.

The cult leader looked around and asked, "Why are both of you wearing formal attire?"

Ash, Liz, and Annan were all wearing pajamas, and Panji was wearing a butler's uniform, or rather, Ash and the others had never seen Panji take off his butler's uniform; however, Harvey and Igulla were fully armed, even wearing boots - you know, they had been wearing slippers in the past few days, and after Igulla found that the floor was cleaner, he even stopped wearing slippers.

"The 'Revelation' magic spirit warned me." Igula said, "It's better to be prepared."

"It's almost the same for me." Harvey said, "I was so drunk at noon that I lost track of time. Then I saw Zangief, Linda, Akeli, Suspeare and the others urging me to run away..."

"Question!" Ash raised his hand: "Are you schizophrenic?"

"No, they are my dearest friends, brothers and sisters—"

"I see, it's a dead person." Ash said, "Does that mean something might happen tonight? So should we--"

"Don't worry." An Nan was the calmest. "This phenomenon is also recorded in the Duolan Family. Every day when the Weaving Festival releases the list, the prophecy faction and the destiny faction will be affected, and the answers obtained are either very good or very bad. I made three predictions today. Two celebrated that good things would happen to me, and one warned me to leave quickly or else disaster would befall me."

Since the locals said so, Ash naturally believed it. However, Harvey and Igula had no intention of changing clothes. Perhaps they were too lazy to change, or perhaps they trusted their own judgment more.

Ash suddenly summoned his Gospel Book and asked, "Speaking of which, does it cost points to check the future list?"

"You don't need to do that within the first 100 days. After the Weaving Festival, you will need to spend points if you want to look up the future lists of previous years." An Nan said, "When the first list is woven, a bookmark will appear in our gospel to remind you to look at which influential figures will appear in the next 50 years."

"Speaking of which, is there any way to be listed anonymously?"

Ash suddenly recalled a classic plot from an online game novel: "If we are on the list, it will attract attention, so wouldn't it be ok to remain anonymous?"

"I'm sorry, that's impossible." Banji shook his head: "Although we still don't know why the All-Knowing Weaver wants to hold the Weaving Ceremony, it may be to control the future, or it may be to inspire the people, but in any case, the Weaving Ceremony is definitely not to serve the Echoers."

"The Echoes must want to be listed anonymously, but the Echoes are just tools used to display the ceremony, and the Gospel will not take the Echoes' wishes into consideration."

"However," An Nan suddenly said, "it's not that there aren't lists that can be anonymous."

Ban Ji was slightly startled, and then realized what she was talking about: "That is an exception among exceptions, it is meaningless..."

Igula was keenly aware of the secret: "What are you talking about?"

"Among the tens of thousands of gospel lists, there is only one list where all members are anonymous," An Nan said. "But being on that list is not a good thing. You won't even get any points reward."

Ash asked, "A list of murderers?"

"The Killing List is one of the few lists that criminals can enter. The competition is fierce, and the rewards are richer than those on ordinary lists. But the price is that you are more likely to be caught by the Red Hats, so it's a mixed bag." An Nan shook his head: "But the "List of the Unlucky" I'm talking about only has losses, no rewards at all."

“The one without destiny…” Liz murmured, “It sounds very pitiful.”

Ban Ji introduced on the side: "The List of the Unlucky is the strangest list in the gospel. There is only one condition for being on the list: no luck."

"People who are forgotten by society, people no one needs, people no one cares about, and even people who don't care about themselves, will be on this list. And other people will not know the information of those on the list, only those on the list themselves know."

"Generally speaking, those who appear on this list are minors under the age of 17, and there are no adults."

Igula asked, "Why? Because you'll be needed when you grow up?"

“Because they don’t make it to adulthood.”

The living room fell into a brief silence, and Harvey exhaled a puff of smoke: "Why? What happened to them?"

"No one knows." Ban Ji said, "We can only see it from the list. The names on the list of no-one will suddenly disappear one day."

Ash: "It's also possible that they are needed by someone—"

"Although the Gospel has blocked their specific information, it has not stopped us from looking up the reasons why those who are not destined to be on the list are removed from the list." An Nan said: "Only a very small number of those who are not destined to be on the list are removed because they "do not meet the conditions for being on the list", and the reason for the vast majority of those who are not destined to be on the list is because "the target is no longer in the Gospel Kingdom." "

If not in the kingdom of the gospel, then where is it?

In any case, it is impossible to leave the Kingdom of Gospel on your own initiative. People like Ash, who have experience of going abroad, understand best how dangerous it is to travel between two countries.

Leaving the country where you were born and raised and starting over in another place with a completely different society and culture is almost like traveling through time, not to mention that many countries will kill outsiders to prevent invasion, such as Blood Moon and Gospel.

Therefore, the most likely reason for those who are not eligible to be on the list is that they are judged by the gospel to be waste that society does not need and are given the gift package of a new life.

"Perhaps those who are not destined to be together will be taken to heaven by the All-Knowing Lord to enjoy happiness." An Nan said calmly.

"It could also be hell." Igula said coldly, "How cruel! When the unloved hear the gospel pronounce them the most unloved children in the world, what kind of emotions are brewing in their young hearts?"

"I thought you were a social jungleist, Mr. Bogin." Annan was a little surprised: "You support the natural elimination of the weak who cannot survive."

"Of course I support natural elimination of the weak, but I don't support a high and mighty God judging the weak." Igula said: "Even if there is hell ahead, you should walk there on your own, instead of being tied up and thrown down by God."

An Nan said, "But don't you think they might not have the courage to commit suicide? Since they are on the list, it means they have already taken 99 steps. The Gospel only pushed them to take the last step."

"Indeed." Ash said, "According to the conditions for the No-Fate to be included in the list, the No-Fate should all want to die. They are like writing a messy article, and the Gospel is just to help them put a full stop to it. This may be a relief for them."

"However, since they did not choose to end their own work, it means that they still hoped to write a beautiful story later. The Gospels have such great power, and as their editors, there is no need to urge them to finish the book in a hurry even if they do not give them a chance to recommend it."

"The power of miracles is not used to destroy the weak, but to create the strong." Harvey also said calmly: "Just like the Undead faction is not for the accumulation of death, but for the exaltation of life."
