The self-cultivation of the passer-by hero

Capture, be captured, human history always repeats this monotonous and ridiculous process.

The emergence of desire makes people always want to reach out to places they should not touch or even cannot touch, pursue the sin called miracle, and long to whitewash blood with glory.

Human beings are inherently evil.

Enjoyment is evil, happiness is evil, sadness is evil, pain is evil, and the existence of the body, the mind, and everything is evil.

"So, I will not stop. As long as human history continues, I will write this crime forever."

Luo Tianshu said so.

He was sitting in front of the desk, resting his head on his hands in boredom. On the blank book in front of him, lines of text were slowly emerging.

On the sofa nearby, there was a girl curled up with her legs in her arms. Her name was Danterian. Although she was the holder of "The Origin of Gensokyo", she could not understand the thoughts of the young man in front of her.

Yes, she is just the holder, but the compiler of this book and this story is Luo Tianshu.

"Why are you lying?" Danterian seemed to be able to see the words in the scroll. Her petite face was filled with maturity that was inconsistent with her appearance.

"Huh?" Luo Tianshu tilted his head, seemingly puzzled by Danterian's question.

".You deceived him, right." There was deep helplessness in the determined tone, and the girl's frown seemed to be reproachful: "Even if he can collect all seven weapons of sin, it is absolutely impossible to repair it. His world.”

"Dantrienne."

Calling the girl's name, Luo Tianshu straightened his body and answered the question: "Before discussing this topic, I think we should first confirm the definition of deception."

"Are you going to start showing off your lies again?"

"How is that possible? I'm just adding to the already existing facts."

Shrugging, Luo Tianshu said calmly: "In a broad sense, the so-called deception is to cover up the truth with false words and deeds when both parties are equal and share information."

"Isn't this what you did to him?"

"That's wrong. From this point of view, I did not 'cheat' him."

Luo Tianshu shook his head. Facing Danterian, he had no need to quibble: "Personally, compared to watching him waste his energy doing such useless work, an 'end' or 'end' is what I want." I wanted to give him a gift, but unfortunately he refused."

Danterian turned her head and glanced at the story on the desk that was still continuing backwards. The depth in her eyes became a little more intense.

"Originally, we and he were two worlds that were not supposed to intersect. The reason why it became like this is, apart from the unexpectedness of Teacher Jing and Miss Yuko, it was mostly his own choice."

Luo Tianshu lowered his gaze, looking at the continuous words on the scroll, with a meaningful smile on his lips: "His world has already 'ended' at the beginning, or in other words, his story has ended when I stopped. The moment I start writing, it’s finished.”

"Is it over?"

"That's right, it's over. The story belonging to the character 'Takeya Kosaka' ended completely when I first completed the story of this world. Therefore, what continues it to this day is not my will, but his."

Luo Tianshu stretched out his hand to touch the words with the smell of blood on the scroll, and the smile on his face became more and more elusive: "You and I both know that the 'loop' in the story we originally completed is perfect and has no flaws." Loop' won't bring any tragic future to his world because-"

"In his world, there is no 'future' at all." Danterian finished the next lines after Luo Tianshu.

"That's right, Danterian, in the story we completed, when time reaches the final node, everything will come back again. It's not because we deliberately put him in repeated pain, but because, his world There is no 'story' after that."

"That's why I said you lied to him," the topic returned to the original part, Danterian looked directly into Luo Tianshu's eyes: "Facing a world where there is no future at all, no matter how hard he tries, it is meaningless. Right?"

"I didn't lie to him. Everything was his choice."

Luo Tianshu also insisted on his statement and gave a reason that Danterian didn't know: "Do you know? What is the biggest difference between the things recorded in the painting and the prototypes that exist outside the painting?"

"It's a possibility."

Without waiting for Danterian to answer, Luo Tianshu himself gave the answer: "Compared with the things in the painting that have all the meaning of existence, everything outside the painting has unpredictable possibilities."

As if understanding something, Danterian opened her eyes slightly: "You mean, that Kosaka Takeya, he...?"

"He is no longer a 'character' in the story," Luo Tianshu told the final fact, smiling lightly: "Compared to the boy whose existence was originally defined, he now has 'possibility' ', but unfortunately, with the possibility, he wants to escape from his original fate more and more, even though he understands that it is the 'right' thing, but he keeps choosing to avoid it."

"So that's why he..."

"He also realized that his world had been sentenced to death a long time ago, and there was no future to speak of, because it was originally an episodic world, just a 'scene' that existed for the sake of a 'story.'"

Luo Tianshu told the cruel truth without any scruples: "The reason why that incomplete world can exist is not because of us, but because of him - Kosaka Takeya, the crazy journey of reincarnation that started with him, this That’s the root of everything.”

"That tiny world has no future. If you want to maintain it, you must look back at a certain point in time. All the tragedies, all the disasters, and all the hatred he created are to allow the world to survive. necessary."

"On the one hand, tragedy must be used to maintain the existence of the world, and on the other hand, he hopes to prevent the birth of tragedy. What he desires and what he actually does are two completely opposite paths."

"This contradiction is the only way to maintain his world."

"He rejected our 'gift' because he believed it eliminated the possibility of the future, so he continued to make his own choices in the hope of finding a path that could break the reincarnation and lead to the future."

"But in a world where the future doesn't even exist, how can there be a path for him to choose? From the moment he rejected the future we chose for him, his fate was doomed."

"This is the reason why I want to guide him to our world, because here, he will clearly understand all this, Kosaka Takeya - he is the abyss of chaos in the world, the symbol of hatred, the source of evil, He is the original sin."

Luo Tianshu stood up and picked up the pen on the table. The scattered ink blocked the continuation of the text on the scroll.

"This twisted evil has gone further and further down the wrong path. If it is not stopped, sooner or later the flame of despair will burn with our world. Therefore, for the future of the world, this mistake must be corrected. OK."

"Hmph - it really fits your words, arrogant guy," Danterian did not hesitate to mock: "Don't forget, he has six weapons of sin, and he has the ability of the entire Gensokyo. A monster, do you have any chance of winning?"

"Unfortunately, Danterian, my abilities are of no use in combat at all."

Luo Tianshu admitted his weakness honestly, but suddenly changed the subject and said: "However, it doesn't seem like I need to do it myself to defeat him, right?"

"Really?" Danterian glanced at Luo Tianshu and said, "Do you have other suitable candidates? Don't forget, your previous 'insurance measures' directly 'surrendered to the enemy.'"

"Don't say that, Danterian, Miss Qingming also has her own ideas. It's not her fault."

Luo Tianshu said nonchalantly: "Compared to her, isn't there a ready-made candidate here? When he gets there, no matter what, he will definitely meet."

"Hey, is that what you're talking about?" Danterian was slightly startled and looked at Luo Tianshu in surprise, finding that he didn't mean to be joking at all.

"Didn't I always say that no matter how excellent the replica is, it will never be as good as the original."

With a comfortable smile on his lips, Luo Tianshu's tone was as calm as ever: "He was taught by Miss Jing over there, so he couldn't become the protagonist, because he didn't understand the self-sacrifice stupidity of a hero, and he never gave up on any of his companions. Emotional, but also lost the recklessness to choose to face everything, and more importantly -"

"This is not his 'story'."
