As key "characters" in the "production," they had to immerse themselves, but also detach themselves.
They had to conform to the rules of the "production," yet they could not hand their fate entirely over to those third-rate "screenwriters."
Little Fear's "Self" and Ronan's "Self" needed separation, differences, hierarchy, and constant adjustment.
It seemed quite complicated, but in truth, as long as Little Fear, this character, continued to survive, he would jump from "this scene" to the "next scene," from "this production" to the "next production."
It looked like a perfectly natural process, yet it directly targeted the design philosophy of those third-rate screenwriters.
After all, given Little Fear's current scale, taking a few laps along the "track" they had laid out could serve as an "incubator," allowing him to develop even better.
However, this meant that Little Fear's defining traits—well, those somewhat "out-of-line" issues caused by probability—had to be embedded earlier and deeper into the perceptions of the audience and those self-important "screenwriters."
Even if there would be continued expansion later on, with a preconceived impression in place, they would be more likely to accept it.
Young Master Kuti's gambling-style heavy investment was an excellent opportunity to deepen that impression.
Eight Origin Mothers and ten vials of high-energy nutrient injections, before and after—their value had already far exceeded the normal price of a Clone. Yet compared with those "powerful private soldiers" born at Celestial level, there was still a certain gap.
And that gap was precisely the space in which Little Fear could operate reasonably.
The straight-line distance to the "target's" residence was a little over four kilometers. By the standards of some "godforsaken backwater," however, it was fourteen kilometers.
At this point, it was difficult for Little Fear to advance quickly any farther.
Because ahead lay a high-end Residential
