After flipping through the chapter discussions and comments, I noticed many readers have questions. Replying to each one individually is too troublesome, so I've decided to open a separate chapter for this.
First, let me clarify: the protagonist does not have Kryptonian blood, so conventional methods like drawing blood are useless against him. You can think of the system as a Kamen Rider belt, and the Superman Template as the card used for transformation.
I also just saw a reader ask if changing templates would reset ability stats. The answer is no. After all, there's no rule stating a Kamen Rider belt can only hold one card, right?
Honestly, I mentioned this in my first book: I rarely read system novels myself. The main reason I added this element was for the contract.
This book did have a slow start, after all. Nowadays, it's not just about revealing the cheat within three chapters; some books introduce it in the very first sentence, wanting readers to know what the cheat is immediately.
I took ten chapters before the system officially appeared, and I was worried the editor might reject the manuscript.
So, I ask for your understanding. As a fresh graduate working as an intern in the corporate world, my biggest takeaway is not to go against market trends unless you're powerful enough to dictate them.
Clearly, I'm not, so I have to follow the trend.
As for why I wrote it that way, it really comes down to stubbornness – I couldn't suppress my self-destructive and restless heart.
Getting back to the main topic.
Some people also suspect that since I started with the World War II storyline, I might return to modern times after dealing with Hydra and continue the plot.
The answer is also no.
If you've read my previous books, you probably know that I'm not a big fan of strictly following the plotlines.
I'm more passionate about writing my own story within the framework of a fanfiction, rather than just adding a protagonist to the original work. That's quite boring.
If I were a reader, I wouldn't enjoy that either.
Regarding fanfiction creation, I believe that a protagonist's arrival must bring change to the world, for better or worse.
A protagonist who just coasts along is a type I really dislike.
Of course, this approach has its pros and cons.
The benefit is that it might feel a bit fresher.
The downside is that it's easy to go off track, leading to a collapse in the later stages.
So, I'll try my best. After all, the anti-hero outline is still there, and it's good to make use of it.
Finally, some readers asked if the protagonist changing the timeline might attract the attention of the Sorcerer Supreme.
This answer is related to the plot after the World War II arc concludes, so you can let your imagination run wild and guess how the story will develop.
That's all for now!
I'm off to write. The Lunar New Year holiday is ending in a few days, and I might not have this much free time.
Sending love to all the readers who gave me the triple-like!
