I looked through the chapter comments and reviews and found that quite a few esteemed readers had questions. Replying to them one by one would be too much trouble, so I decided to make a separate chapter.
First, let me explain: the protagonist did not have Kryptonian blood, so ordinary methods like drawing blood were useless on him. You can think of the system as a Kamen Rider belt, while the Superman Template was a transformation card.
I just saw a reader ask whether switching templates would reset his abilities and attributes. The answer was no. After all, no one ever said a Kamen Rider belt could only hold one card, right?
Actually, I mentioned this in my first book: I rarely read system novels myself. The main reason I added this thing was to get signed.
After all, this book did have a slow start. These days, never mind getting the cheat in three chapters—some books reveal it in the very first sentence of chapter one, practically desperate to let readers know what the cheat is immediately.
I fucking took ten chapters before it officially appeared. For a while, I was worried the editor would reject my contract.
So, esteemed readers, please cut me some slack. As an intern corporate drone who had just graduated from college, the greatest lesson I had learned was not to go against market trends unless you were strong enough to set the trend yourself.
Clearly, I couldn't do that, so I could only follow the wind.
As for why I wrote it that way, I supposed it was still because I was too stubborn. I just couldn't suppress that restless, self-destructive heart.
Back to the main topic.
Some people also suspected that, since I started with the World War II arc, I might return to the modern era after defeating Hydra and continue following the plot.
The answer was also no.
Readers who had read some of my previous books probably knew that I didn't really like following the original plotline.
What I was more passionate about was writing my own stuff within the framework of fanfiction, rather than simply inserting a protagonist into the original work. That would be pretty boring.
If I were a reader myself, I wouldn't enjoy that either.
When it came to fanfiction writing, I believed that the protagonist's arrival had to bring change to the world, whether for better or worse.
Freeloader protagonists were the type I disliked most.
Of course, this style of writing had both advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage was that it might feel fresher by comparison.
The disadvantage was that it was easy to go off track and cause the story to collapse later on.
So I would do my best to make it work. After all, the outline for Anti-Hero was still sitting there, so I might as well put it to use instead of wasting it.
Lastly, some esteemed readers asked whether the protagonist changing the timeline might draw the Sorcerer Supreme's attention.
The answer was related to the plot after the World War II arc ended, so feel free to use your imagination and guess how the story would develop.
That's all!
I'm off to write, since I'll be going back to work in a few days and probably won't have this much free time anymore.
Sending hearts to all the esteemed readers who gave the usual three-piece support~
