In Wenren Sheng's mind, an image had already taken shape.
The World Will had probably arranged for N people to compete at once.
The last one standing would become a legend, hailed as a Child of Destiny.
As for those who died, vanished, failed, went into seclusion... or lacked the perseverance and gave up on their own, they naturally became mere runners-up.
After that, Little Illusion smugly began blasting sharks with cannons every day.
And naturally, Little Red Horse was the one hauling the cannon.
Thus began its utterly badass life as a packhorse.
Shark hunting was a very fun activity, combining the pleasures of fishing and hunting.
First, they had to toss a few survivors in to chum the waters, then fire the cannon.
Little Illusion put up quite a bounty every time for this.
But her aim was so terrible, and she repeatedly hit the survivors instead, that eventually no one would go no matter how high the reward was.
One day.
Wenren Sheng discovered something else quite strange.
The Pirate Captain had been reborn.
What exactly did that rebirth mean?
It was actually rather interesting.
The entire world had reset once again.
And no one else knew about this change.
Because the whole world had been reborn too.
Only Wenren Sheng, with the power of the Seed of Mystery, retained his memories and sense of self.
Unless this world was a virtual Game World.
Then it could be achieved easily enough by loading a save file.
This was also an experiment Wenren Sheng had once conducted.
He could even virtualize a normal world.
But if it were a real world, it would be difficult to imagine.
With such vast parameters and so many settings, how could the World Will restore every parameter to its former state?
