Omniscient Reader's Perspective

It has been four days since we arrived at Samsara Island.

I confirmed via the [Omniscient Reader Perspective] that the other partners have completed their Nakajima scenarios and are ready to tackle the next one.

Right now, I'm staring at the screen of my phone.

– Three Ways to Survive in a Ruined World (Last Revised Edition)

I hope this is possible with "Postscript".

I wish to read this text file.

If luck is on my side, I might even find some info on the current third throwback.

Guidelines tell me how to act, how to clear the upcoming scene, to achieve the perfect ending.

…but.

what if the ending of the story was true

If 'final revision' means 'it will no longer change'?

What if my act of reading the book just fixes the ending?

"The only son of gold."

- I looked up and saw Han Soo Young, her left hand was bandaged and her back was facing me.

She is the only person in the world other than me who has read The Law of Inactivation.

How would she react if she were in my shoes?

Would she open this file if she were me?

"What are you looking at?"

"No, nothing."

I turned off the phone screen.

Maybe one day I'll be curious about what this story is about, but not now.

The "epilogue" I'm wondering about might not be in this file.

After finishing her equipment, Han Xiuying jumped off the bed lightly and spoke to me.

"Let's go. The longer we dawdle, the farther that bastard Yoo Jong Hyuk will go."

"However, before we leave, we need to meet someone first."

"Who?"

"Looks like he's here."

We heard a knock as the door creaked open behind us.

The first thing we see is the thick, brown Buddhist prayer beads hanging around the man's neck.

Next is the gray Buddhist monk's robe, showing strong and tough muscles from underneath.

He is a warrior monk who has undergone repeated and rigorous training for a long time.

"I'm here to pick you up, benefactor."

.I nodded and replied, "Please take me to your king."

{Three Ways to Survive in a Ruined World}

--Analyzed by the best expert on "The Law of Inactivation"--I, the "three ways" in its title refer to the three main characters of the novel itself.

- The first one is the comeback Yoo Jong Hyuk.

-The second one is the comeback Jang Hae-young.

Finally, the third one is. . .

– and a main character?

Han Xiuying was a little flustered after hearing my story, and hurriedly asked through [Midday Tryst].

I don't recall her having such a memory since she only read about 100 chapters.

But, then again, 3000+ chapters for a main character, that's a huge ask, isn't it

But she remains unnecessarily sharp.

- In addition to this, there is a third protagonist.

-uh, as expected, this novel takes the shortcut to a failed novel

I can't think of a reason to refute.

Because, that failed novel messed up our real life, didn't it?

– So, the owner of this castle is the “third protagonist”, am I right?

-yes.

– How important is he in Act of Inactivation? Is it as important as Yoo Jong Hyuk?

– no, it’s not.No matter what, the protagonist will always be Yoo Jong Hyuk.

- To be sure, most of this story spanning more than 3000 chapters revolves around Yoo Jong Hyuk.The other two are only called main characters based on the narrative description of the story itself.

- but the other two are just as scary as Yoo Jong Hyuk, yes.

Especially at this point in time, the existence of the "third protagonist" is much stronger than Liu Zhonghyuk

– Better than that guy?

I nodded as I scanned the empty meditation room around me.

- This is where the reincarnated perform their confession and purify themselves

A room designed to soothe a mind weary and worn out from many reincarnations.

I can hear the recitation of Buddhist scriptures everywhere, but I can't see the king.

"Where is 'The Reincarnated King'?"

"The king has come."

"But all I see are bald monks, right?"

Han Xiuying's words received a blank answer from the warrior monk. "He's everywhere, but at the same time he's everywhere."

"I'm sure you didn't bring us here as a joke."

"He doesn't speak to people who aren't entitled to see him."

"That's interesting. Is this your way of bringing up the next topic?" Han Xiuying replied with the corners of her mouth upturned.

I observed the expression of this mysterious monk quietly for a while, then opened my lips and began to speak.

"If your king is everywhere, that means anyone can be 'king,' doesn't it?"

The "Unbreakable Faith" in my hand screamed, and at the same time, the illusory sword light shot towards the warrior's Adam's apple.

As if an invisible wall held it back, the tip of the blade spewed powerful magical energy and stopped right in front of the monk's nose.

He grinned and said.

[You have settled on a rather provocative solution.you are right.Anyone, once enlightened, can become a Buddha. ]

His mantra echoes throughout space

-I drew my sword and took another look at the monk.

His whole body exudes an ethereal and subtle aura.His irises were now dyed pure white, and within them the shadow of the mandala swirled counterclockwise.

Most likely, this monk is one of countless avatars manipulated by the 'Reincarnated King'.

[However, you cannot continue these scenes in that way forever, oh, the apostle of ■, bearing the weight of salvation. ]

"Please don't act like you know all my tricks."

I no longer think of The Law of Inactivation as a mere novel, and I definitely don't think of my companions as its simple characters.But that doesn't mean I'll never take advantage of the information I have.

"Nice to meet you, 'Keeper of the Mandala'."

Despite the active fourth wall, I was still quite oppressed.

The "friendly" state before my eyes swayed gently.

Behind the monk, our observing eyes slowly see the terrifying truth.

There he is, ruling over the oldest surviving Dark Order.

Even the Metatron of Eden or the highest level demon king in the demon world, they can't compete with the demons in this island.

The "fourth wall" quivered its non-existent eyebrows.

"The wall that determines reincarnation" expressed interest in you

-- Zhang Haiying (the unrecognizable wall), Metatron (the wall that divides good and evil), and finally the third wall - the "Guardian of the Mandala", the owner of the "wall that determines reincarnation".

[I saw that it was a 'fragment of the last wall'.I assume Nirvana is trapped inside?]

"you're right."

[He is a child who can become a good Bodhisattva.Unfortunately, he met you and had to leave my Buddhist path] "Well, I believe this person will be satisfied with his choice."

It was around here that Han Xiuying broke into our conversation.

"Wait, are you a Buddha? A Buddha?"

[There are many different types of Buddhas in this world, and I am just one of them. ]

-Han Soo Young had a stunned look on her face.

- but then again, her reaction is totally understandable since a constellation claiming to be Buddha is on the scene.

The Buddha had a gentle smile on his face when he spoke to me.

[I have read your story for a long time]

"But, I don't remember accepting your sponsorship before?"

Some zodiac signs will show their gaze and flaunt their authority, and some zodiac signs' existence is a mystery.

True Buddhist devotion is not in the form of patronage, but through simple and contemplative ways

"Surely you can hide the fact that you've been watching this show for free. Fine then. What do you want from me?"

[What do I want? Dear Bodhisattva, do you believe what I want for you?]

[Dear Bodhisattva: Buddhist terminology, address to the world. There are many Buddhist philosophies in the words of monks, please note here]

I shifted my gaze to the huge clock in the center of the meditation room.

A small soul is encased in a bell made of transparent material with dazzling light.

I already know whose soul it is.

"You decided to reincarnate, although I didn't ask for it."

"You invited us here to recover. Although I didn't ask for your help."

[That's just part of one's path to becoming a Buddha]

"So far, I've learned this lesson when dealing with zodiac signs. That is, there is no zodiac sign in this world that doesn't expect anything in return when it helps you."

[Dear Bodhisattva, you have drawn a rather hasty conclusion.Only those who believe that there are exceptions to everything can see the ending of this script clearly]

I stared at the monk without saying a word, then pointed to the clock in the center of the meditation room.I said to the monk. "Please don't limit Yoo Sang Ah's avatar to this island. Her value is far beyond your imagination."

[All creatures reincarnated on this island will become part of the island. ]

I shook my head.

"As you said earlier, there are exceptions to everything, isn't it? She can pick up where she left off. Make the avatar Yoo Sang-ah your new [Arahat]."

Arahat, or those who seek the truth, are not bound to the Isle of Reincarnation, they are free to roam the world of scenarios and continue to experience reincarnation.

"When you do, I'm willing to make a deal with you."

[To seal the deal, yes.Do you believe you know the desires of this ego]

"Isn't this to stop the 'Holy Demon War'?"

[That was a futile attempt.This ego has no interest in contradictory stories, such as "good" and "evil." ]

"Even if those conflicting stories are about to mess up your island?"

As if he found the topic interesting, the monk's eyes arced gracefully.

'Guardian of the Mandala' is neither on the side of 'good' nor on the side of 'evil'.

If I use words to describe it, then he is a being that is closer to nothingness.

So, it is impossible for such a being to welcome the authority of good and evil to grow larger in his domain.

"I will work hard to stop the "Holy Demon War"."

[Do you believe that you can achieve such a goal with your power?]

My story answers for me.

[The great story "The Spring of the Demon World" is roaring!] [The giant story "The Torch of Devouring Myth" is roaring menacingly!]

As these two great stories kicked in, the air around them began to vibrate erratically.

' If my guess is correct, then 'The Mandala Guardian' cannot refuse my offer.Because, he can't participate in the upcoming Holy Demon War, that's why.

As a man who is neither good nor evil, he has no excuse to go to war.

[Dear Bodhisattva, is it your only wish for the incarnation of 'Yoo Sang Ah' to be this ego's 'Arahat'?]

"there's one more thing."

[You seem to be a greedy bodhisattva. ]

"Allow my Nebula to wage a major war from a place of our choice. As the master of this island, I trust you to at least interfere with this."

At that moment, I felt the faint magical energy in the entire temple accelerating.

It was a status riot, as if to make it known to me.

It's a status with a certain aura, not at all threatening or lethal, but nevertheless, I don't even want to come close to it.

[The "fourth wall" is strongly activated!]

["The Wall That Determines Reincarnation" is smacking his lips. ]

After a while, the 'Guardian of the Mandala' nodded.

[I agree with your terms, dear Bodhisattva.Unfortunately, it's impossible for the entire nebula to start in your preferred area of ​​the main island. ] "In that case, I ask you to send at least Li Jiyong and Shen Yusheng."

[Where do you want to send them]

"The next city."

[The next city, yes, my dear Bodhisattva, will it be...]

If it's the 'Guardian of the Mandala', he should have understood my plan here by now.

The main island of "Samsara Island" is where the story of the third generation story is frozen in time.

As these stories boast a wider diversity than the first and second generation

The starting point plays a factor, which will get the unexpected story.

Even if others can't, I have to make sure these two kids will start in the next city.

[Your other companions will start from a place of your own choosing. ]

"clear."

-Han Xiuying stood next to me, silently observing the development of the situation, listened to my answer, and gave me an inquiring look.

– Hey you, what would you do if this bald monk sent us to some weird place?

When the monk saw us quarreling, a strange smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

[Dear Bodhisattva, I really like reading your story, but.Unfortunately, the stories you've collected so far are far from enough to compete with the other nebulae involved in the Holy Demon War]

Perhaps Han Xiuying felt that the word "not qualified" touched her a little, and began to retort in a sarcastic way.

"It seems that you haven't heard the news that we demolished Mount Olympus not long ago."

[The stories accumulated by the dear Bodhisattvas are indeed unparalleled, but they have not experienced the trials and tribulations of time itself. ]

In a blink of an eye, Han Xiuying and I were suddenly enveloped by strong light.

[Constellation, 'The Mandala Guardian' has given you permission to move on to the next scene. ]

[Transfer to the next scene has begun!]

... so suddenly?

I was a little taken aback, but it quickly returned to normal.

Finally, I headed towards the location of the third great story.

Chances are, my other companions, like me, are also on the move.

I turned my head and saw Han Xiuying looking up at me.

"The only son of gold."

Reflexively, I reached out to her and replied. "Do what you can. I'll find you as soon as possible."

"Yes, that's right."

As soon as Han Xiuying's fist touched mine, her whole body was completely shrouded in bright light.

As I watched her disappear, I realized once again that she had truly become my companion.

-Like when Yoo Jong Hyuk said this, Han Soo Young has become an indispensable presence for me to get the conclusion I want.

I owe her a lot on my way here.So, now is the time for me to pay off my debt.

-However, Jin Duzi didn't know at the time

At that moment, my phone screen also started to glow brightly.

Words on a page that I didn't recognize began to pop out line after line before my eyes, as if foreshadowing an ominous future.

He didn't know, when Jin Duzi saw her again... No, wait a minute.

50 years have passed

what the hell!
