[“Su Ming’an, I want you to swear an oath:” Shen Ming’an said:]
[“——From now on, I will only care about myself, focus on my own strength, and think about my own path to becoming a god.”]
[“——No more looking back, no more nostalgia, no more weakness, no more hesitation.”]
[“—I will no longer cooperate with… those people who have always held me back and asked me to save them, as well as my hometown.”]
[“Su Ming’an, I want you to swear to me that you will live well.”]
…
[Su Mingan's blood-stained hands remained still and he asked:]
【“You want to deny me?”】
[…God, you want to deny everything about me? Do you want to deny the reasons why I have come this far?]
[Shen Ming An spread his hands, lowered his eyelids, and showed a bit of compassion:]
…
【"No."】
[“…I want to save you.”]
…
I want to save you.
To make you value only yourself, to make you move towards an end that is no longer so long, to protect the life of your soul, to protect you.
“Tick-tick-tick…”
The warmth of the heart remains on the fingertips.
Su Mingan opened his eyes. The god Mingan was leaning on his shoulder. His skin had lost its color and his heart was crushed by him. His face was calm and his eyelashes were drooping silently.
Her snow-like long hair fell down, swaying slightly and quietly, like a hovering seagull.
……I see.
Su Ming'an, who had obtained the memory of Shenming'an, gently withdrew his hand.
So that's how it is. On the sea route, I would be poisoned by Nol, and compete with Nol for the initiative of consciousness. Although I woke up in the end, I had eaten too much power, so I decided to commit suicide, leaving the gods to rest in the next reincarnation of the universe.
Crossing the cosmic cycle is a very difficult thing.
The god An couldn't remember anything at first and just acted on instinct, with occasional memories popping up in his mind until Noel came before him.
"You should have remembered some of it," Noel said.
The god An looked back silently. He did remember some of the past, and remembered how he had competed with Noel for the right to consciousness in the previous reincarnation of the universe.
“But don’t say it.” Noel pointed to the sky: “Someone… is watching.”
"Who?" Shenming An said.
"'They,'" Noel said, "are the ones who don't want this story to end. Once 'they' find out that we are trying to find the best ending, 'they' will definitely try every means to stop us."
"Are the people you are talking about so powerful?" Shenming An said.
"Yeah, they may not be that powerful, but 'they' have some abilities. If 'they' really try their best to stop us, we'll probably be stuck in an endless cycle again," Noel said.
"I don't quite understand." Shenming An said, "But if you put it like this, can't those people hear it?"
"Have you ever watched variety shows?" Noel suddenly said.
...Hmm? Shenming An frowned and replied, "I think I have seen it."
"The camera on variety shows always focuses on the most important person at the moment, right? So there are disputes among celebrities about 'stealing the spotlight'. Some want to occupy more shots, so they deliberately do something attractive. As for more low-key celebrities, they will have relatively fewer shots," said Noel.
The god An stopped making the tea, as if he realized what Noel was hinting at.
The “shot” Noel refers to is… “narrative anchor.”
The "variety show" that Noel mentioned was referring to... "everything that is happening in Rowsa."
The "stars" that Noel mentioned are referring to..."Su Mingan, Yueyue, Noel, Su Liujin, Si Que and other important figures".
When the "narrative anchor point" falls on Su Ming'an, whether it is the records of the Book of the World, the eyes of others, or the attention of higher dimensions... they will all be pulled under this "lens". This is the system rule of Luo Vasa as a book.
There is only one lens, and when the camera is aimed at Su Mingan, the situation on Noel's side will not be "recorded".
"I specifically studied the records in the 'Book of Worlds'..." Noel said, "After the eleventh world began, the narrative anchor has basically been focused on Su Mingan. The few times the camera moved away were only during 'Lü Shu woke up from the vampire race' (the 1214th Drama Memory Lens), 'Noel saved Lan Qie in the mechanical land' (the 1218th Drama Memory Lens), 'Su Lin opened an antique shop' (the 1219th Drama Memory Lens), 'Yamada Machi disguised as a maid to assassinate Zhi Li'er' (the 1222nd Drama Memory Lens)... these times."
"After thinking about the similarities of these events, I think that only when the story of the 'protagonist' Su Mingan is told and the importance of the events of other people increases significantly, the narrative anchor will fall on other people for a short time. For example, instead of recording Su Mingan and Hui Bai shopping and riding the cat car, we will record Lu Shu waking up in the blood clan. Moreover, when the events of other people come to an end, the narrative anchor will return to Su Mingan."
"So, I specifically chose to come to you when 'Su Mingan is doing something very crucial'. This ensures that the narrative anchor is on him at this time, and will not fall on the two of us."
"He is currently talking to the Dawn Mother Goddess. The importance of our conversation is in no way greater than his. You can rest assured. It is relatively safe now."
"However, our conversations must be more private and not involve particularly in-depth keywords to prevent the narrative anchor from shifting."
