One of the [Time Scar Pocket Watch]'s traits:
"Fearlessness of the Ignorant."
That is, sealing away memories caused their owner to lose part of the strength contained within those memories.
For example, if the [Time Scar Pocket Watch] sealed a level-100 Player's memories of leveling from 98 to 100, then before the pocket watch's hands were moved, that Player's level would remain at only 98.
Forever level 98.
They could not raise their level through any other normal means unless they triggered a preset "key node" and unlocked those memories.
Black Star's amnesiac state—having forgotten that he had already become a Chosen and that divine authority lay hidden within him—had directly caused him to "lose" the qualifications to become a Chosen.
Thus, to a certain extent, avoiding the possibility of his divinity reaching its limit.
Black Star did not know who had placed the [Time Scar Pocket Watch] inside him, nor why they had sealed those memories of the past.
He could only vaguely sense that person's intention to protect him.
Because the instant the [Time Scar Pocket Watch]'s hands moved and his memories returned, he regained his identity as a Chosen.
As long as he expended another portion of his lifespan and triggered the plight of "the end of the road,"
he would accumulate that final trace of divinity and be forcibly brought into the divine realm to undergo the gods' trial!
Black Star was not afraid of death, nor was he afraid of failing the gods' trial.
He only feared that when he saved Ilya and was forcibly dragged into the divine realm, Lu Li—the troublesome opponent who had just fought him to the death—would pursue him to the Extreme Domain and seek revenge!
