Little Fatso’s tragic screa fashion It was as if his cries would shatter the evening afterglow, drowning all light

With all four liue in pieces, Shi Xiaobai lay there bleeding profusely He let out whiic” the calalow enshrouded hier bleeding The pain was intense enough to knock hio unconscious

The screahter of the calaine all kinds of scenes with the cala Little Fatso Unlike the previous decapitation, the calamity fiend seemed to torture Little Fatso with extreme patience Shi Xiaobai knew that the calaer that had arisen from his provocation

“Sorry, Little Fatso I was unable to save you, and instead, I haronized For hi it easier for hiradually weakened till they disappeared It was a long process, so long that it seemed to cross millennia

“It’s your turn Reh the short re life of yours with extreme pain” The cala that, the sound of the calamity fiend’s footsteps could be heard

Shi Xiaobai slowly closed his eyes, waiting for the inco ordeal

“Make your choice, youth!”

Suddenly, the fiery voice booain in his mind as Shi Xiaobai opened his eyes instantly All he saas the still scene of the cala its head out of the black hole froain returned to that mo was as perfect as before

However, Shi Xiaobai was not dumbfounded, nor was he pleasantly surprised He did not have an ounce of emotion and only faced it with an ashen face, as if he was a walking zombie Previously, he had atte it was a clairvoyant dream, but now, he finally reached the point when he needed to carefully think things through

Why was he returned to thethe choice twice in a row? So it was not a dream, nor was it an illusion, but because he had failed He had failed to “Save Little Fatso”, resulting in ti reset

“What will happen if I were to choose the other options?” That was the first thought Shi Xiaobai had His eyes landed on another line of black text—”Escape”!

“If I were to immediately escape, I’ll definitely be able to succeed…Then, time would probably not reset to this point in time I will not die, while Little Fatso will probably be killed, but at least he wouldn’t be tortured…”

“But I really want to save him!”

Shi Xiaobai’s eyes, which had just lit up, turned cloudy once again His thoughts turned dark, as the voice inside hih in derision

“You can’t save hie You can’t protect anything”

“Do you understand? You are neither a protagonist, nor are you a hero You are just an ordinary student found coonist in a certain piece of work, then you would definitely end up in a tragedy…”

“You can’t even save yourself, so how are you to save others?”

“It’s not fair? The unfairness in this world boils down to the person in question being inadequate Little Fatso will die, because he doesn’t have the ability to survive but you can, you can live on!”
