The Trickster's Ninth Episode

So there is this kind of style of writing a diary. To be honest, there are advantages and disadvantages to writing like this. In many cases, it is really troublesome to take care of the timeline.

I want to write about making friends, sharing joys and sorrows; I want to write about how time flies, but I don’t change my original intention;

I want to write a lot of things, and my ambition is infinite. These are mentioned in the [Preface].But the most important point is that I never write daily.In fact, when I first conceived this book, I went astray when I thought about it. No matter what was in my mind at the beginning, it eventually became a bloody battle text.

Later, I simply did not do anything, and threw this part of the passionate text into the background. This is the origin of the first eight weeks.

In order to write a book, I first wrote a prequel in my head.

So the book "Trickster" has changed from a [story from scratch] to a [day after the story].

Because it's a later date, so naturally there will be no battles, I'm a genius!

The most glorious time of the protagonists is over, and the only thing left is happiness.

This is also the original intention of "The Deceitful Man". From the very beginning, I didn't think how many people would read it. I just wanted to write some stories that would make me happy.

So in a sense, this book lacks the ups and downs of the plot, the growth curve of the protagonist, and there is even a high probability that there will be no villains in the book.For example, this book only contains content from 0 to positive infinity, and all negative things have been cut off by myself.

An overly bland plot is a shortcoming for the novel, but I don’t want to go into those stories that first suppress and then rise. If you can catch the airwaves, then read it; if not, I won’t change it either.

By the way, I would like to take this opportunity to ask you a question!

I feel that the live content I write is so boring!The Hollow Knight segment, in particular, made me feel so stupid trying to describe a video in words.

You guys tell me the truth, is the live section I wrote boring?

If I'm bored, I'll just... think of another way. (sigh)

Let's talk about Blank's father.

As a person, I always have an inexplicable obsession with plots involving "parents", so I must write well.Even if this role may only appear once, I will try my best to create the image of [parents].

Fortunately, Lian's parents said that I set them up as ordinary parents, just write out the taste.

Blank's father, on the other hand, is a propositional composition, which belongs to the category of originality. After all, "NGNL" has no information about this person at all. It only says that it is a pair of parents and it's over.

But I don't want to write a thin paper person that can be summed up by a few tags, and at the same time I don't want to write a simple disgusting character, disgusting others and myself.

So in order to make the role of Kongfu three-dimensional, I finally borrowed from a real friend's father.

Of course, there must be artistic processing.I think the empty father I wrote is better than that friend's father-at least he has a lot of money left for his son.

Of course he is a father, he will think for the sake of his children, but he is stubborn, divorced, pedigree, interests first, can't teach others, especially extremely selfish, and doesn't listen to advice. "What you said may be right, but I'm not wrong, so do as I say" - a father who carried out his extreme outlook on life to the end.

He doesn't know what is the best, but the best interests will not be the worst.In this way, an excellent "person" can be cultivated, and the person cultivated in this way can at least be satisfied materially, that's enough.

Tsk!You said no one wants to see this kind of stuff, right?Why put so much effort into writing something no one will read?

In the earliest days, as an author, I always shouted that there must be something wrong with my brain when looking for reality in fictional works.

Now I feel that novels talk about logic, not reality.

It is probably considered as the author's persistence, no matter whether anyone reads it or not, it is written out.

Then, let's talk about the content behind it.

A new volume is about to start. From May onwards, I may try to jump time. Such a day-to-day photoshoot is really not an option.

Of course, at the beginning, I still have to continue writing day by day, and there is no way to completely change it all at once.

The entire April volume is basically throwing away the worldview, shaping the characters, and giving you a basic idea of ​​the characters in this book.

Well!My books all have a shortcoming that is not considered a shortcoming, that is, the charm of the protagonist is overwhelming, and it is easy to overshadow the light of other characters. I don’t know if this shortcoming can be improved in the future.

Originally, I left the main line after May, and the April volume was to throw away the establishment of the character and intersperse some daily life, but I wrote 56w words without knowing it.

Well~ (looking at the sky)

Anyway!If you have any opinions, you can raise them. Although I may not listen to them, you should also raise them!

I am really envious of seeing my author friend copy book reviews, I want to copy book reviews too!Give me a beak!

It's time to end, what does the end say...

Oh by the way, part of the intro is finally coming online, and you can probably guess which part it is.

So finally, let's end with a nondescript Chinese haiku I wrote for the April volume.

——Original cherry blossoms are scattered, the flowers are blooming and withering, and there are new buds on the branches.

A new story begins.

Chapter 1 A Tale of Living to Death

The time is night.The location...looks like the roof of a building, empty and dark.

Because the viewing angle is fixed, you can only look straight ahead, through the edge of the roof, you can see the bright city lights in the distance, and... the fact that this area seems to be located in an island.

What is this place?

Yu Gonglian was a little confused.

This sense of restraint that was clearly in a dream but completely unable to move, he probably dreamed about the past again.

"Hello! Are you sure the location of the seal is here?" A man's voice came from beside my ear.

Yu Gonglian turned her head to look, it was a man with long gray hair, because she was slightly taller than Yu Gonglian, so Yu Gonglian looked up at him slightly.The man was frowning and looking around at the surrounding environment.

Naruto Yuu.

"To be precise, the place of sealing is on the moon." In the dream, Amamiya Ren said lightly.

"On the moon? Then what are we doing here?" Naruto Yuu looked at Amemiya Ren in surprise.

"You should still remember that there is a difference in the location of entering the inner world, right? This is the place where Yuuki Ri and Yuuki Makoto slept. I think it would be better to enter from here." Amamiya Ren replied casually.

"Okay, I'm up to you on this. But didn't the woman surnamed Tongjo say that the shadow time has been sealed together and will no longer appear? How are we going to get there?" Naruto Yu said.

"The shadow time didn't disappear, it just fell asleep with the seal of Yuki Ri and Yuuki Makoto." Amamiya Ren explained. "And I have the characteristics of connecting different spaces, so it should not be difficult to find that place. After finding the coordinates, I have to ask Sophie for navigation." (Note ①, Note ②)

"Leave it to me!" A girl's energetic voice came from Yu Gonglian's cell phone.

"You are really... well prepared!" Naruto Yuu looked at Amamiya Ren speechlessly, and paused for a few seconds before choking out a complete sentence. "In short, I don't understand this aspect, let's start quickly."

"Okay. Sophie, after finding the coordinates later, I will navigate directly. The key word is [Tartax]." Amamiya Ren said.

"Understood." A positive voice came from the phone.

As soon as the words fell, Yu Gonglian stretched out her right hand, and the world card appeared in his palm, and the blue spiritual fire ignited from his feet and rose to his side.

After a while, the world card in Ren Yugong's hand turned into a chain, which was caught by Ren Yugong.

"found it!"

At this moment, Sophia on the phone also simultaneously received the coordinates captured by Ren Amemiya, and started to navigate into the other world.

"Start navigation, enter the keyword, [Tartax]."

At this moment, the time in the real world came to 0:[-], centered on the rooftop where Ren Amamiya and the others were located, the faint light green dyed the entire sky like an open barrier, and liquid shadows climbed up the surrounding buildings With the object, a huge full moon appeared in the sky above Ren Amamiya and Yu Narukami.

Of course, at the same time, there is also a tall tower with countless broken clocks and hour hands forming an outer wall that leads straight to the sky.

After eight years, Shadow Time reappeared in this world.

Shadow time is a special event in which the inner world and the real world are highly overlapped under the influence of the power of the gods. Within the scope of shadow time, the real world is overlapped by the inner world, and ordinary people will all be put into coffins and fall into a deep sleep. During this period, [The 25th hour that does not exist] will appear in the world.

The shadows of the other world will walk on the streets. If ordinary people who have the adaptability to shadow time and can move in shadow time happen to bump into a shadow monster, there is a high probability that they will be killed.

However, in the outside world, Ren Amamiya has let the special search team, the Phantom Thieves, and Blank, Tatsuya Amano, and Gemini lead the demons under Ren Gong as guards.

The shadow patrol Ren Amamiya headed by Kirijo Mitsuru cannot be mobilized, but the shadow time reappears, and those guys will definitely not sit idly by.

"The shadow time is only one hour, hurry up, let's go." As the other world unfolded, the costume on Ren Amameiya also changed into a phantom thief costume.

"No matter how many times I look at it, it's hard for me to get used to it. Why were you so fancy when you entered the world?" Naruto Yuu looked at Ren Amamiya who suddenly changed clothes, and felt that his outfit didn't match his style of painting. "By the way, how do you plan to get up there?"

"Of course it's flying up. We don't have time to climb the tower layer by layer." Ren Amamiya crushed the world card in her hand, and the huge Satan Yael, more than 30 meters high, descended from the sky, and then shrunk to seven or eight meters. Landed next to Yu Gonglian.

Ren Amamiya stood on the shoulder of Satan Yael, and the six demons behind the giant fallen angel flew to the towering Tower of Tartax.

"...I really can't get used to his phantom thief style." Narugami Yuu sighed behind him.

Then the world card also appeared in Narugami Yu's hand. After crushing it, Izanagi God appeared behind him. After growing from a height of just over 2 meters to about the size of Amamiyaren's Satan Yale, he also brought Ming Shangyou flew up into the sky.

The Tower of Tartax cannot really reach the moon, but its [-]th floor is close enough to the moon, where Ren Amamiya will touch the great seal of Yuki Ri and Yuki Makoto.

Ren Amamiya and Yu Naruto came to the top of the tower together. After eight years, naturally there will be no Pharos here to stop them.This is just an empty area, and the two landed directly in this place.

"Repeat our plan. I will try to replace the great seal later, but the seal will inevitably disappear for a short time during this period. If there is no accident, Fallows holding the scepter will wake up. He has part of the power of Nix, At that time, it will be up to you to restrain him." Ugonglian said.

"If there is an accident, I will come back immediately, and then you can restart the world by combining the power of the two world cards." Narugami Yu added.

"That's right, but don't worry. I have already touched the realm above the Knicks in the second reincarnation, and I am fully sure that I can succeed." Amamiya Ren nodded and said.

"If it wasn't like this, I wouldn't come to be crazy with you." Ming Shangyu rubbed his eyebrows, after all, he was the one who was mainly responsible for the fight this time, and he had a headache.

"Okay, don't complain, and treat you to a big meal when you get back, okay?" Yu Gonglian said with a light smile.

"Then, the action begins!"

☆Appendix☆

Note ①——The names of the two protagonists in the stage play of P3 are [Sakuya Xiomi] and [Qinyin Xiomi]. body, that is, they are the same person.As for Yuki Ri's name [Li], if it is disassembled into a pseudonym and used as a female name, it can be written as [真] or [Makoto].So I chose Makoto Makoto as the heroine's name.

That's right, Yuki [Li], Yuki [Makoto], and Niijima [Shin], if you just call them by name, the pronunciation is exactly the same.But, after all, this is a Chinese character book, so it doesn't get in the way.

Note ②——Sophie is the code name of the new Phantom Thief character [Sophia] in "Persona 5S". The main body is an AI that can think independently, and has the ability to navigate into the inner world.

Chapter 2 The Demon King Who Killed the Gods

Nix, the name of the goddess of the night in Greek mythology.

But in the world view of the P series, the essence of Knicks is not actually a god.It is different from the true gods like Nyarlathotep and the false gods like Yalda Bait. It is not a god.

It is a star-phagating body created by some kind of cosmic truth called "magnificence", drifting in the universe for a long time.In the end, by a certain coincidence, he stayed on the moon.

Nix is ​​a civilization cleaning device that has nothing to do with good and evil. Every once in a while, it will come to the earth and launch a civilization cleansing. In the word of mouth among the gods, whether it is dinosaurs or other prehistoric creatures that once existed on the earth Civilization was destroyed by the Knicks.

The story of "Persona 3" tells the story of Pharos, the god who symbolizes [human desire for self-destruction], trying to integrate himself with Nix and convey the desire of human self-destruction to Nix, Lure it down from the moon and start the civilization cleansing in advance.

The protagonists of "Persona 3", Yuki Li and Yuuki Makoto, sacrificed themselves at the end of the story to impose the [Great Seal] on the moon. In essence, they did not seal Nix, but combined Nix and Pharos. It symbolizes isolation of 【human self-destruction desire】.

The essence of [The Great Seal] is not to face the Knicks directly, which makes Ren Amamiya's plan possible to succeed.
