This update ends here. The next update will be in two days. The dice...oh, there are no dice this time.
When I wanted to write a summary, the first thing that popped into my mind was this sentence. Should I say that it really becomes a habit?
Without further ado, let’s start the summary section of Volume 1 – having said that, this is my non-verbal section in the first place, and it sounds strange to say this without further ado.
If you don’t have a teacher from this department and it’s difficult to segment pictures, just use the · symbol to segment them.

First is the routine introspection session.
When I started writing an original story for the first time, there were really a lot of things I needed to reflect on.
I tried my best to make each character have a distinct personality, but I focused all my energy on ability design and neglected personal characteristics. I have to say that it is because of my lack of experience... Especially Lao Xu, who originally wanted to be a cold-faced and black-faced man, but because of his ability, The need to explain why he is like a good kp who does his duty when running a team is really... thank you for your hard work.
It is really difficult to create original abilities for the first time. Basically, everyone’s abilities have more or less prototypes. The one who dejected me the most was Ms. Shigure. She came up with a good idea that suited her, and happily completed the detailed settings of the Suijing Xianying. It was only when I was writing that I realized that the result was the Wako Punishment (from A Certain Magical Index, left). The ability of Fang Di) is somewhat similar.
Ah, really, I want to dig a hole and bury myself. But now that the situation has come to an end, we can no longer change the script temporarily, so we have no choice but to bite the bullet and continue writing (sad)

I am used to the feeling of writing posts in the past, which leads to a lot of dialogue. The lack of writing skills makes the characters speak more or less homogeneously. When there are too many characters in communication, it is a disaster. I will work hard to improve this aspect and never let the next villain become as talkative as Old Xu.
Narrative rhythm is also a difficult issue to control. The world view introduction and setting explanation (the chat between Alice and Atze when they first met) actually took three chapters. Oh my god...
There were too many people participating in the Bad Beast War, which made Mr. Takizawa, who was already a bit of a bitch, seem even more bitch...
The reasoning and entry into the ground after the battle between the evil beasts took up several chapters, which is longer than when I first explained the world view and setting...
Looking back, I can't help but sigh.
I have a bad habit of not being able to grasp the points that should be explained in detail. I always want to explain every point clearly in a long speech, and want to explain everything related to it.
In addition, the time limit in the story is also a problem. I originally wanted to add more daily scenes of dating and complaining about Miss Alice, so that the contrast in the final heart-breaking scene could be greater. It's a pity that they only had half a day. The two of them traveled half of the city and could only spare a few words to talk. It was a pity.
The next volume will have to make the story longer.
The prologue seems baffling even now, right? I think so. But I really wanted to write it, and I really wanted this scene to be the beginning of this story, so I put it up anyway)
There are still many points that need reflection, but if I continue writing them down one by one, it will become a reflection meeting for me. So let’s turn the page for a moment and tell the story of this volume.

The name of the first volume is Super Powers and the Impermanent Dharma. As the name suggests, it mainly tells stories about the Impermanent Dharma. The impermanent mages who appear in this volume are basically middle-level psychics, a few are high-level manifestations, and there is a creation who serves as the ceiling. What do you think?
The law of impermanence is basically related to one's own heart. Once you see the ability, you can understand what kind of person he or she is to a certain extent. This is the keynote of this story.
I deliberately created "dual identities" for many of the characters who appeared in the first volume. Shi Yujun went from a handsome and handsome man to a scarred friend, Mo Yuankai went from a sidekick to a big brother, Yan Qi went from a fish masked man to a strong man, Qin Qianbai went from being a tough guy to... wearing a mask. Tiehanhan (laughs). The most deliberate one is of course Miss Alice, who changed from a helping hunter to a fugitive prey, from a good woman to a bad woman - the first hunter wanted Ace's heart, and so did the second hunter. .
The heroine of this volume is of course Miss Rei Shigure, who also serves as the final boss.
What would happen if a character who has always been very good to the protagonist suddenly betrays her and becomes a villain... The character designed with this in mind is her. Malice boils in my heart, but the congenial conversation is not false. She only loves herself, but she also quite likes the talkative gray-haired man she meets by chance. Of the words spoken as Alice, how much is true and how much is false...Ace should also be thinking about this in the end. As for the truth, she is the only one who knows it.
At the beginning, I really, really wanted to have Ms. Shigure make a neat exit at the end of this volume. Jie Jie, it’s time to kill a character! In the past, I had to be lenient when writing posts, but this time there is no reason not to accept it. The first one is you, Rei Shigure! !
——As soon as I started writing, I felt like, this is not good, this is a little bit, you see, although she is terrible, she is also quite good, so I might as well forget it.
Since I had long thought that I had a weak character, I prepared two slightly different outlines, one of killing Miss Zero and one of letting her go. After writing about ten chapters, the first outline was thrown into the trash can. . So Shigurei survived because of Ace's mercy and his brother's life-saving rescue. There should be no reason for her to cause trouble again, right? I guess so.
When I was actually writing it, I found that it was impossible to describe every character in depth, so I left the story of Miss Qin, Shigure-kun and the others for later. Since she is the heroine of the first volume, I still gave the stage to Alice.

The first volume is positioned as an introduction to the most important content of this worldview, so a sudden event was chosen. And in the second volume after that...
After playing a roll of Impermanence, it's time for the superpowers to come out and play.
I think it’s time for Ace to take a breather, enjoy the daily life in the Sky City, and do some superpower campus comedy to show the daily side of this city. By the way, a little bit of two dimensions.
Romance plot? Ah, no rush, no rush.

Regarding the word count, I asked about it in the comment area before. Some friends said that the current word count for a chapter is okay, and some friends said that it would be better if it was less. I plan to make a compromise, and try to shrink the relatively boring and overly plotted plot into 2k words to complete one chapter, and keep the rest at the current level. If you have better suggestions, you are welcome to put them forward in the comment area or chapter reviews, whether it is about word count, rhythm or anything else. After all, I have many shortcomings, and I have to listen to suggestions to improve little by little.
And just like when I posted before, I get very happy when I see comments.
By the way, the female character’s trick of cheating will not be used a second time. After all, it would be boring to repeat it (

Finally, thank you very much for your comments, collections, recommended monthly tickets and rewards! I really want to write a thank you at the end of the chapter when I receive it, but this may affect the reading experience, so I will leave it here to express my gratitude. Really thank you all for your support!
The first volume is finished, and I have to save some time to revise the outline of the next volume, so I will temporarily suspend publication for the next two days tomorrow and resume serialization on Wednesday. I will make a separate post in the comment area for some of the character settings that appear in this volume as before, and I will post them tomorrow.
So this update ends here, the next update will be in two days, and the content will be the second volume, Stable Extraordinary Life.
