Chapter 1406: Chapter 57: "I Do Not Ask You to Write a Glorious Epic.
On the Divine Mountain.
The clouds and mist hovered, with the cosmos flowers hanging low.
Beneath the vigorous bodhi tree, Xiao Bai stood clad in white, appearing otherworldly, her expression solemn.
Opposite her stood Su Ming’an, Qianqin, and Hui Bai.
Suddenly, the first ray of pale yellow dawn broke through the vast sky’s cloud, the immense sunlight successively descended, illuminating the mountain top, Xiao Bai’s robes fluttered, as she heard distant ancient bells.
She raised her right hand, a light pink feather pen condensed in her palm, with wings spread and tip sharp.
It was Sique’s 17th birthday.
Xiao Bai formally granted the three of them a mission—to complete the "World Book" by creating and collecting Memory Clips, bestowing upon them the responsibility of a "Savior".
Hui Bai was already extremely weak, yet he forced himself onto a wheelchair to attend the ceremony.
Bright red cosmos flowers swayed in the mountain plains, the air lingering with the scent of lime cola and finger cookies. The sunlight descended, as if cradled in the palm of an immortal.
She parted her lips, her voice a magnificent thunder, resonating across the Divine Mountain:
I swear—I shall paint the true meaning of my heart with the pen, unafraid of failure and doubt, persisting in the original intention of creation.
I swear—regardless of the long journey ahead, or how hardships fill my life, I will embrace passion, sincerity, and love. No matter how the world misunderstands, questions, or criticizes, I will maintain my true self.
I swear—even if all beings devour my flesh, drink my blood, I will eternally write the psalms without rest.
Amidst the ethereal clouds and mist, Xiao Bai approached each of the three in turn.
"Lift your head."
She lowered her wrist, and the feather pen tapped Su Ming’an’s forehead, instantly clearing his ears and vision.
...
"Ding-dong!"
[You have been blessed by Luowasha.]
[Your creation ability has been enhanced, your observation has been enhanced, your sixth sense has been enhanced, your spiritual knowledge has been enhanced...]
[Your Mentality Points increased by 10%! (Bright State +3 points, Shadow State +33 points)]
...
[Combat Power: 7285+100 points!]
...
In an instant, Su Ming’an’s five senses became sharper, able to perceive every detail around him, his thoughts suddenly clear.
The cool palm of the girl rested on his head, as if he could smell a faint, noble lotus fragrance.
Her pupils were an extremely light pink, her snow-white robes fluttered, and in a trance, Su Ming’an felt a chill around him, as if enveloped in frost and snow.
A breath flowed from her palm, spreading from his head to his whole body, permeating every cell, bringing him unprecedented ease and joy.
——The immortal caresses my head, I gain longevity with the hair.
"During this time... you can think about some of the questions that have long puzzled you." Xiao Bai’s clear voice came: "With a leap in spirituality, a surge in perception, now is when you are the sharpest, the most sensitive."
Su Ming’an felt a revelation. He immediately seized this opportunity of clear thoughts to ponder the questions that had previously perplexed him.
...
First, why, at the start of the instance, did the Luowasha people say "World Book" was in Sique’s hands?
Yijulai’er is the "Watcher of Luowasha", a demigod-level character. She claimed that Xiao Bai was a character she wrote, but that might not be the case. Xiao Bai might be her, her own embodiment walking in the mortal world. After all, she has to guard the World Tree, hence fabricating a form to enter the mortal world.
She knew early that disasters would come in the future, so she wrote the "World Book" early.
...
[Magpie, do you want to create the World Book?]
[Yes, Kasadia, the doom will eventually descend, only by constructing Eden can we find peace.]
...
[But the Ocean Angel didn’t act for a while, watching Su Ming’an, tears unknowingly flowed down His cheeks.]
["If I can’t be a hero in your story, then I’ll become the villain." The Ocean Angel seemed unaware of the tears: "The World Book is inside your heart, Olivius. If I devour you, I’ll become a more important character."]
...
Xiao Bai had three disciples, Hui Bai kept reincarnating, Qianqin became the Dawn Knight, so only Sique could guard the "World Book".
The second question, Hui Bai’s timeline?
Currently, it seems Hui Bai has experienced at least four lives, with the actual number far exceeding that.
The first life, which is this life. Hui Bai was a poor boy who came out of the township exam.
The second life, Hui Bai was the Red Cardinal of the Church, meeting Sique at a 19-year-old interview.
But this life has a doubt, at this time the reincarnated Hui Bai should be less than 2 years old, unlikely to be in a young adult form. This might be due to the influence of the Follower of the God of Chaos, the Hand of Chaos, who are meddlers traveling the world, advocating for everything to fall into chaos.
The third life, Hui Bai was an Order Guardian, creating the Artificial Lin Clan with Xiao Bai, creating a Rin Clan younger brother. The Rin Clan brother killed Yamada Machiichi.
The fourth life, Hui Bai was a Red Tower Scoundrel, taking Su Ming’an for a ride on the Cat Car, strolling around, divining.
"Overall, there’s no problem, but I seem to have overlooked the most crucial point..." Su Ming’an pondered repeatedly, believing 90% to be correct, yet feeling something was missing.
The inspiration was fleeting, so he ceased his depth of thought and quickly considered the third question.
The third question, who exactly is Pudding?
She was an important female character whom Su Ming’an met at the earliest; she was the female protagonist of Luowasha, introducing Su Ming’an to the university to meet Hui Bei. She taught Su Ming’an [Character Setting Play], taught what [Protagonist] means, taught what [Game Day] is... like a "mother", helping the novice Su Ming’an gradually familiarize himself with Luowasha.
But upon reflection, Su Ming’an suddenly got goosebumps, discovering with a tingling scalp that—at some unknown time, Pudding disappeared!
He immediately rifled through the "World Book" given by Sique in his mind, searching for the name "Pudding", and was shocked to find—so far, there were a total of 1412 Memory Clips, but all appearances of "Pudding" ended at [Memory Clip 1228·"They Became Players"]!
Subsequent Memory Clips occasionally mentioned "Pudding", but she herself never appeared again.
Inadvertently, she was forgotten by all. Clearly, she was the [Female Protagonist], supposed to appear prominently.
The most terrifying thing was that Su Ming’an was completely unaware of this. Had it not been for this moment of epiphany, he likely would never have realized that such an early major female character vanished just like that.
"Strawberry Pudding", "Little Pudding Wrapped in Red Bean Ice Shavings", "Cream Little Pudding"... Afterwards, foods with her same name appeared several times. As reason dictates, Su Ming’an should have thought of her, yet he subconsciously ignored her, never raising a thought to inquire about her whereabouts.
"Cognitive blockade? This is what Pudding mentioned... the outcome of ’having her scenes squeezed out’?" Su Ming’an immediately thought of something Pudding once said:
...
[Pudding solemnly said: "I’m Pudding, I’m the original female protagonist of Luowasha whose plot was squeezed out. But a scheming villain named ’Hui Bai’ squeezed out my scenes, approached you. Originally, those scenes of taking you on the Cat Car, divining with Divination Cards, looking at the World Tree... were supposed to be done by me."]
...
Indeed.
What she said was correct, and soon, she never appeared again.
But this shouldn’t be Hui Bai’s doing, perhaps it was because... a new female protagonist appeared.
Xiao Bai.
Xiao Bai’s primary story began from [Memory Clip 1254·"She Was Trapped by Balance"], around the time Pudding vanished.
Quickly, the Memory Palace in his mind opened, and he suddenly recalled something Xiao Bai said at the time:
...
[Xiao Bai closed her eyes in concentration and said indifferently, "It’s just the Balancing Principle of Luowasha."]
...
If Luowasha is regarded as a game, then everything exists under a peculiar[Balancing Principle].
If Su Liujin is the[Male Protagonist], then the one to take him on a cat car, see a giant banana, and participate in divinations, Pudding, becomes the[Heroine].
If Su Ming’an of the Rin Clan is the[Male Protagonist], born to enjoy universal attention and the favor of the World Tree, then merely the Pudding, the Red Tower Princess, would be "unfit," and Xiao Bai, as the Order Maintainer, becomes the[Heroine]. This aligns with the Balancing Principle.
This is a disgusting law, yet it is a practical foundation of the world.
Thus, it leads to the conclusion——
Suddenly, inspiration struck Su Ming’an’s mind.
——Perhaps it was during this period that the[Narrative Anchor Point]officially shifted from Su Liujin to Su Ming’an! Since the[Male Protagonist]changed from Su Liujin to Su Ming’an, the[Heroine]also changed from Pudding to Xiao Bai!
Moreover, upon deep reflection, Su Liujin really hasn’t appeared for a long time...
"So, both Pudding and Xiao Bai are avatars of Yijulai’er. The former is weaker, gentler, more humanized. The latter is stronger, more indifferent, divinized. They both possess Independent Personality, just like my avatars Ming and Shadow," Su Ming’an concluded:
"——The true[Heroine]should be Yijulai’er!"
"If I want Su Liujin and Pudding to reappear, I likely need to surrender the[Protagonist]position, allowing the[Narrative Anchor Point]to return to Su Liujin."
"This is also why Xiao Bai accepted me as a disciple and allowed me to ascend the Divine Mountain, because she saw through it; I am currently the[Male Protagonist], so she values me highly!
At this point, all the doubts in his heart were answered.
"Luowasha... is indeed marvelous," he couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. These rules, seemingly absurd, everywhere hold logic. Just from one detail, the final conclusion can be deduced.
It’s like a storybook lying openly, absurd and incredible when flipped, yet upon detailed reading, it’s a logically tight real world.
Whoever the[Protagonist]cares about will appear. Whoever the[Protagonist]ignores will fade into the world stage, blending into the silent masses.
Humans are "selfism" creatures.
Luowasha magnified this "selfism" to the extreme.
This entire train of thought was completed by Su Ming’an in just ten seconds.
At this moment, Xiao Bai’s cool palm moved downward, and the light pink Feather Pen touched Su Ming’an’s palm.
"Shua——!"
In an instant, Su Ming’an felt a weight in his palm.
...
"Remember."
"The three main rules for Creators: First, do not create things that oppose the World Rules. Second, do not create beings surpassing one’s positional rank. Third, do not create beings exceedingly similar to oneself."
...
In an instant, a dazzling light burst from his palm.
It was as if Xiao Bai’s Feather Pen "birthed" a new Feather Pen.
A jet-black Feather Pen, mixed with golden gold, formed in Su Ming’an’s palm.
The pen tip glowed brilliantly.
He could feel this pen was connected to his soul, heart, and brain, as if it were part of his body.
"... What is this?" he noticed Qianqin and Hui Bai beside him, both gazing at him with envious eyes.
"This is your exclusive Creation Pen," Xiao Bai said lightly. "You are the one most favored by the World Tree. Luowasha permits you to possess a unique, world-altering, supreme rank pen."
"You must repeatedly use it, practice with it, and familiarize yourself with it. With this pen, it means that the door to SS-level Creator is not far from you."
"I, on behalf of Luowasha, recognize you——"
"You possess the key to unlock the highest gate. Su Ming’an."
The ink-black and gold-mixed Feather Pen, its specifications the same as the Purple-Gold Feather Pen of Sique.
From now on, he no longer needed to use the Feather Pen gifted by Sique—he now has his own Feather Pen.
Spiritual knowledge flowed like a warm stream from the top of his head, circulating through his neck, chest, and abdomen... In a trance, Su Ming’an felt an inexplicable connection establish with Luowasha. He seemed to hear the sound of the wind, the sea, the rustling of branches and leaves, the distant village mother’s shout, and children playing in the stream... he could also feel his connection with the sky, earth, and ocean.
This feeling was like when he saw Su Rin returning home earlier.
At that time, although Su Rin was standing on the hillside, she seemed to blend into the entire sunset. She wasn’t like an independent person, but the embodiment of the entire island civilization. The flowers and wilderness were all transformed into his blood and bones.
——Human and nature become one; man is the world.
"Human co-ruler? Embodiment of civilization? World will? Have I become such a role?" This concept vaguely emerged in his mind.
In a daze, he also realized that Xiao Bai called him "Su Ming’an," not "Sique."
She has always regarded him as Su Ming’an.
The one standing here is Su Ming’an.
...
"Ding-dong!"
[Your Genesis Level has increased to B-level!]
[You have unlocked B-level Creator functions: crafting script domains, adding emotional lines!]
[All the creation functions you’ve currently unlocked: 1. Insert Memory Clip. 2. Inspiration Integration. 3. Plot Additive. 4. Character Setting Play. 5. Creating Supporting Character. 6. Card Participation. 7. Crafting Script Domain. 8. Adding Emotional Lines.]
...
Heat.
Su Ming’an felt warmth throughout his entire body.
Spirituality, like a slightly hot stream, flowed through his chest and abdomen, pouring into every blood vessel.
An invisible, distant, and heavy force was transmitted to his soul.
The ink-gold Feather Pen in his palm felt as if it weighed a thousand tons.
The human spirit is as insignificant as dust, yet it can reach the most primal place.
The White-Clad Goddess closed her eyes in sympathy, clasping her hands over his, letting the unique jet-black Feather Pen fit snugly in his palm.
Her voice was light and steady, like angel feathers caressing his ear:
"Today, I bestow upon you the pen of your destiny, appointing you as the Creator of the world."
"The seventy-fifth generation ’Xiao Bai·Olivius’ hereby fully entrusts the authority to write the ’World Book’ to you."
"Bestowing upon you... the name of the seventy-sixth generation ’Olivius.’"
"From this day forward, you may use the pen in your hand to create the World Book without any license."
"Su Ming’an·Olivius."
