[TCFO] Arc 3 — Chapter 108

The Vicious Princess Wants to Reverse Fate (2)

"You need to take a rest? Let's first take a look at your mission attributes!" She also felt as if she were almost scared to death by the suppressive heavenly confinement in that world!

At this point, Zhou Min couldn't help but open her mouth wide, but it seemed that she hadn't frightened Zhou Min yet, so it continued, "And the main carrier of empathy is to channel all the emotions of the commissioner onto you and then send you into the next page. At this moment, empathy comes into play by replicating all the commissioner's emotions and memories onto you. This helps you better integrate into the world and the person in it. However, if the commissioner's emotions are too deep, too heavy, or the grudges are too intense, they will directly affect your consciousness. When the commissioner's emotions suppress your consciousness, you will be devoured by the last lingering thoughts of the commissioner left in the world, gradually losing your own soul!"

"Why?"

"Because empathy is essentially formed by the commissioner's final lingering thoughts. So empathy can only be activated when opening a new mission world. When you return to Space, it will end when the commissioner's mission world concludes!"

"Damn, you mean I'm carrying a trace of the commissioner's soul while travelling. It's so serious, and you didn't say anything about it," Zhou Min said, recalling the overwhelming despair she felt in the small forest, where she was almost engulfed by negative emotions. The intensity of those negative emotions was so strong that even now, just thinking about it gave Zhou Min chills.

"What soul? It's just the commissioner's lingering grudges or obsessions left in the world. It's not considered a soul, okay? The soul had already dissipated or reincarnated when they made the exchange with us. We're just clearing the lingering grudges in this three-thousand-world! Besides, I didn't expect you to be suppressed by the emotions left by Jiang Min in the second mission!"

Listening to the explanation, Zhou Min suddenly couldn't say a word.

Why did she feel like she was the equivalent of a 360 antivirus software?!

But when she remembered the raging anger and uncontrollable grief in her mind when she was almost humiliated in the small forest, she looked at it and said, "I remember now. In the memories I received, now that I think about it, there was some inexplicable strangeness. That strangeness must be the memories that Jiang Min locked and altered! And those terrible memories are things Jiang Min couldn't accept. So the events in the small forest broke through that seal, causing her memories to recover. As a result, for a long time afterwards, my consciousness was suppressed by Jiang Min's empathy until she plotted against Liu Haoyu and successfully witnessed the pain and despair in his eyes. Only then did my consciousness gradually recover."

"Yes, because the man in the small forest didn't succeed, Jiang Min's grief was not enough to completely devour your mental strength. So she only suppressed your consciousness with a trace of obsession in empathy during the subsequent time until the obsession dissipated and you regained control of this body!"

Actually, even when it reached this point, it was sighing. After all, it was its mistake. It originally just wanted to give Zhou Min a small lesson through that man. But it didn't expect that Jiang Min's lingering obsession with her past life would be so deep.

"But I lay on the operating table for more than ten years. I couldn't move at all during those ten years. I was hooked up to drips every day. And at that time, since Jiang Min had already eliminated her obsession, why didn't she come back and be with Liu Haoyu again?"

Zhou Min didn't understand. Since Jiang Min had given her control of the body, didn't that mean Jiang Min no longer harboured any resentment? So if her mission was completed, couldn't Jiang Min return to her body?

"You still don't understand. Jiang Min is already dead. When she found our system, she was already dead. Empathy is just the power of her last lingering resentment, unwillingness, regret, and other emotions left in the world. It contains all the memories of the commissioner, but she is no longer the commissioner herself! And you, you're just helping the commissioner become her again in the former world and live another life!"

"Become her?!"

"Otherwise, do you think why empathy would follow you into the mission world? In fact, when it appears in the mission world, you become the commissioner, or you can think of every commissioner in the three-thousand-world as each of your own lives! Would that make it easier to understand?"

"It's hard to understand! If it's my own life in each world, then why am I living so miserably? No, I don't want that!" Zhou Min suddenly became upset. What does it mean to consider every commissioner as her own life in the three-thousand-world? She had only experienced two worlds, but if they were truly her own lives, wouldn't she be too miserable?

Hiding in a dark corner of the gloomy Space, looking at Zhou Min with a strange and mysterious gaze, a smile with profound meaning appeared. "Why don't you think about it? Did you do something terribly wrong so that in every life, you end up in misery and unable to get what you want?"

"Well, if it's punishment, then why should I continue doing missions? I won't do it anymore..." Zhou Min felt a strong sense of heartache upon hearing the assumption. It made her feel uncomfortable, and she waved her hand in a dismissive manner.

"Zhou Min, have you given up hope of returning to your own world? Are you no longer concerned about your ageing parents, the scumbag living in the new house you worked so hard to buy, and the green tea bitch who claims to be your best friend but secretly seduces your boyfriend?" Every word hit her sore spots, making her unable to help but think of those people who disgusted her.

"You're really ruthless!" Zhou Min looked around the hazy Space. "After travelling through two worlds together, can you please explain all the rules at once? I don't want there to be anything I don't know!"

"Well, there's actually nothing more. The male protagonist's semen is the key to opening the next world page, but the male protagonist is also the destiny of the world. So the male protagonist cannot die in any world because if he dies, the world will collapse. Even if you collect the male protagonist's semen and complete the tasks of the supporting female character, the time you return to Space is determined by the time of the commissioner's past life's death. However, as your level rises and my level upgrades, the system will grant you more access permissions. In the end, besides not being able to choose the male protagonist in each world, you can choose the time point to return to Space!"

These words surprised Zhou Min, but she was well aware that many things were no longer within her control. Apart from moving forward, she seemed to have no other choice!

"Then, if Liu Haoyu dies along with me, does it mean that the world has already collapsed?" Zhou Min recalled the previous world where she made Liu Haoyu die with her. Because she knew that if Liu Haoyu didn't die, with his clever intellect and increasingly unstable emotions, the world would eventually be manipulated by him.

And if she failed to stabilise the male protagonist's emotions and protect this world, her mission would also fail. So at that time, Zhou Min only had that one choice.

"No, because when you decided to have a child with Liu Haoyu, the male protagonist's destiny had already begun transferring to your child. So even if Liu Haoyu dies in that world, the male protagonist's destiny has already been taken over by your son, replacing Liu Haoyu as the male protagonist. The world continues to develop smoothly!"

However, they wouldn't tell Zhou Min that although it was developing, the development itself was a world that was unimaginable for everyone! They were fortunate that Zhou Min didn't know they had already stepped out of that world. Otherwise, just thinking about it would be painful!

There wasn't a single normal person in the Liu family!
