    Chapter 403: Just Kill Me

    "We came here to find you, and we even know your name because we understand you," the God of Theater sighed. "In another Time and Space, the God of Wealth knew about the misfortune you were about to face, so we saved you in advance."

    "The you from that Time and Space grew up under our protection."

    "Those who once harmed you have all received their just deserts."

    Mo Xiaosu: "?"

    After a moment of silence, Mo Xiaosu spoke up, "Is the story over? If it is, you can leave."

    Su Wen glanced at the God of Theater, knowing that such words from him would lead to this outcome. Who would believe such nonsense?

    And was this Time and Space’s Mo Xiaosu a normal person?

    Not attacking the God of Theater immediately was already showing him a lot of respect.

    "Forget it."

    The God of Theater slightly shook his head. The next moment, he raised his right hand and the light within it directly touched Mo Xiaosu’s forehead.

    Everything became real.

    Considering Mo Xiaosu’s special situation, he did not plan to use memory implantation methods suitable for the Fighting God. After all, that’s the Fighting God, tough and resilient; forcefully using memory implantation wouldn’t harm him.

    But this Time and Space’s Mo Xiaosu needed a gentler approach.

    Therefore, the method he used was fragmentary memory sharing.

    He shared everything from the first time he learned about the Shadow God from the God of Wealth to rescuing Mo Xiaosu.

    Then, together with the Star God, he helped Mo Xiaosu stabilize her mind in the Theater World, allowing her to awaken early.

    Even the recent event of Mo Xiaosu playing Mahjong was shared with this Time and Space’s Mo Xiaosu.

    He wanted Mo Xiaosu to experience the main Time and Space situation from his subjective perspective.

    Though he had other ways to make Mo Xiaosu understand, after some experimentation, she would eventually believe him.

    But those weren’t suitable.

    He handled different people with different strategies.

    This Time and Space’s Mo Xiaosu had already suffered enough; treating her gently was the last kindness he could offer.

    After all, he was not from this Time and Space.

    The tragedies this Time and Space’s Mo Xiaosu experienced in her childhood and the scarred memories etched deep within her heart wouldn’t simply disappear with a few comforting words from him.

    He did this only to show her something.

    Child!

    When you feel utterly hopeless, think of your other self in another Time and Space.

    That version of yourself has not gone through too much suffering and is living a happy and fulfilling life.

    Without saying much more, in a moment of extreme despair, a bit of joy from the sub-timeline is better than nothing!

    Moments later, Mo Xiaosu slowly opened her eyes, a complex expression flashing in her gaze.

    "You…"

    Mo Xiaosu tried to speak, but the words "God of Theater" just wouldn’t come out.

    She understood the method of memory sharing.

    She could even do it with someone she trusted for life.

    But this celestial being in front of her…

    Did the theory of Time and Space really exist?

    She didn’t know, but at this moment, she preferred to believe that it did.

    Perhaps her earlier self thought it was strange, a trick, but now she felt it was real.

    Believing it was real was enough for her!

    "It’s just a title, no need to be formal."

    The God of Theater said with a smile, "I am the God of Theater, and he is the God of Wealth."

    "You can call us however you like; you can just say God of Theater or God of Wealth. We don’t mind at all."

    Hearing this, Mo Xiaosu fell into thought. After a while, she looked up and said, "God of Wealth… big brother, since you can come here, could you take me to your Time and Space to see it?"

    "I saw my mother’s figure in the memories of the God of Theater."

    Su Wen spoke up, "Your mother is the one I brought back to life."

    Mo Xiaosu: "!!!"

    "But I’m sorry, I can’t take you back."

    "Is there an embarrassing reason for that?"

    "Not really; a Time and Space can’t have two of the same person at the same time, or it would cause great turmoil. Currently, we may not be able to bear such a heavy cost."

    Su Wen explained. From his understanding of the dark river, the so-called disorder of time and space depends on the amount of wealth available.

    However, he might not be able to afford it right now.

    The turmoil in the main Time and Space would definitely be a significant disturbance!

    With his current small size of several billion in wealth, how could he possibly bear that?

    Even if he could, he wouldn’t recklessly spend at such a critical moment.

    It would be better to wait until the future great war breaks out before revealing this trump card, right?

    "What if I die?"

    Mo Xiaosu pondered for a moment and said coldly.

    Su Wen: "?"

    They came to see Mo Xiaosu to bring her hope, not to make her die early.

    The honorable Shadow God!

    In the Eighth Era, the true gods stand watch!

    Even if targeted and having an unhappy childhood, one shouldn’t die so carelessly!

    Hmm… although I, as the true god of the Ninth Age, have also died rather rashly at times.

    But this is different!

    The version of me in the sub-timelines is just too unlucky!

    The luck there is on a completely different level than my own in the main Time and Space.

    "God of Wealth, just kill me!"

    Mo Xiaosu revealed a bright smile and said gently, "You can kill me, then take a trace of my consciousness back with you."

    "You don’t have to rescue me, and you definitely don’t have to worry about me."

    "If I could see my mother before truly dying, I think… I’d have no regrets."

    "Especially if after meeting my mother, I could also relive a happy childhood in that Time and Space. That would surely be a wonderful thing!"

    "Playing mahjong with everyone, having fun, and goofing around."

    "Being cared for by elders, spoiled by my brother, and my mother being there… Such days are a perfect life I never even dared to dream of!"

    As she spoke, Mo Xiaosu’s smile grew more radiant and sunny.

    Yet at the same time, her resolute desire for death was very evident in her eyes.

    In truth, she had long stopped wanting to live.

    What is the point of life?

    Su Wen and the God of Theater exchanged glances, unable to hold back their reaction.

    This development was not what they had in mind!

    They had imagined that the despairing and tormented Mo Xiaosu would feel relieved upon learning that her other self in the main Time and Space was living well and that her mother had been resurrected.

    They didn’t expect her inner pain to heal, but she at least wouldn’t be so openly expressing her suffering.

    But now… it seemed more serious; this wasn’t just about pain anymore—she was ready to end her life and leave this world!

    "God of Wealth, in your Time and Space, time passes more slowly than here, right?"

    Mo Xiaosu suddenly said, "Actually, I have been targeted by international human trafficking organizations while dealing with human traffickers all these years."

    "When I was sweeping them away, I discovered that the human trafficking market on the international stage is very rampant."

    "The performances of human puppets, the selling of hearts and lungs, hiding poison in baby corpses…"

    "What I’m saying is very common in the international market."

    "If you don’t focus on attacking and eliminating it in your Time and Space, it should still exist."
