To remedy all of this, before the experiment began, Cheng Shi added a new rule to this Creator Experiment:
Whenever any living being dies as a result of an experiment, its body will be transformed into recycled material, but its memories will be copied and stored in the "Origin".
If experiments have a future, if cycles can be broken, if this can truly be considered compensation... then on the day the real future arrives, he will reassemble all the memories, letting these beings who died in his experiments know how much unbearable despair and fear they endured for the future of the world.
He will apologize and is willing to bear the infamy for it.
Because he is Cheng Shi, not some heartless "Yuan Chu".
At that very moment, the assembled mask of the covenant of the gods returned to his finger as a ring. "Primordial Beginning" looked down and saw that the ring's twisted and looped shape was strikingly similar to that of the Eternal Imprisonment—no, it seemed to be the Eternal Imprisonment, only with something more. After the [Awakening of the Prisoner] and the [Cry of the Awakened], he saw the [Lament of the Cryer]:
[The Lament of the Shouter]: You finally see the answer, but you are also forever imprisoned by it.
Time has already given His answer.
Cheng Shi showed no sorrow or joy. He took back the ring, and also took back the seed that had transformed into the [Prosperity] Crown. He sat silently alone, beginning his eternal imprisonment.
But he firmly believes that the future will eventually come.
...
The true universe, the primordial land.
Upon discovering that one of the countless slices of the universe had suddenly disappeared, the figure sitting there remained unperturbed and immediately began a new experiment.
The world is being rebuilt, a new era is dawning, and the temporal storm arrives as scheduled. Everything is proceeding steadily and in an orderly manner.
Behind that figure, the starlight was dazzling, like distant, unreachable stars to any being who had stepped into the real universe.
But only when you get close can you discover that those dazzling stars are not luminous celestial bodies, but rows and columns of once vivid memories.
The religious disputes of the present world are a projection of the will of the gods. The reason why the past can be known to the future is because there are always devout recorders who remember it.
...
Unknown times, unknown places.
The unbearable darkness continued to gather, and countless moments of time stopped there in silence, until a glimmer of light burst forth from the unobservable blackness, as if the stacked time had twisted, collapsed, and spread out cracks.
The crack is getting bigger.
How many questions is this?
...
(The End)
