Reborn as a Supervisor

What is the biggest change in a timeline?

The death of the protagonist may not be the biggest problem, but the biggest problem is that the key NPC ran away, resulting in the inability to advance the main storyline.

If Ain died during the Lobotomy Corporation period... then let him die, he can be replicated anyway.

If Angela is gone, the company will not be able to operate normally.

It is undeniable that Angela is the most important NPC in both "Lobotomy Corporation" and "Ruined Library". As long as she has problems, the entire "script" will change.

This world has reached ending A. The library should collapse after Angela's death, and the city will re-enter the next "cycle". The library's deeds will be buried by the times like a "flash in the pan"...

Unfortunately, an invitation letter from Angela changed the trajectory of the timeline. Bai Sishu did die, but the library did not collapse, causing the "Book Hunter" to stay in place for a long time.

"I read books day and night for days, endlessly and without rest."

"Yeah, considering how many people have died here in the past 13 years, isn't this natural?"

"Hmm... something seems to be wrong..."

She was "talking to herself" again. The librarian had not appeared for a long time. He had been waiting for his master to come back for a very long time, and finally forced himself into this state.

When he had nothing to do, he could only read books and immerse himself in the ocean of books, otherwise she would have gone completely crazy.

No one can stand loneliness, not even a machine.

"My guess was correct..."

Bai Sishu is dead, so no more invitations will be sent out.

Before Shiraishi's death, the Book Hunter would visit the library several times a day.

But since the death of Li Bai Sishu, no one has ever set foot in this library.

"Very contradictory, isn't it?"

"The supplies I brought are running low. We have to find a way out."

In the past, they were teleported here and there, and the book hunters had not yet found a way to enter and exit the library normally.

But she believed that in this vast ocean of books there must be a book that could help him escape from his predicament.

"Well... read a few more before you leave."

Over the past 13 years, countless people have come to the library, whether in the Nest or the Back Alley.

The Finisher's Office, Fingers in the Alley, Wings of the World, The Finisher of the Association.

“And they are now becoming my knowledge.”

"If I could possess such knowledge, not only the southern part of the city, but the entire city would be afraid of my power."

"But why are you just sitting in that chair..."

Her question went unanswered, perhaps because she herself didn't know.

He couldn't understand how someone with such great power could restrain himself and trap himself in a "cage".

"Forget it, there's no point thinking about this now..."

"I have to put aside my extra thoughts and find another book to read... There must be some books upstairs that I haven't read yet."

The book hunter found a different piece of paper under a pile of books, which seemed to be a list.

"What is this piece of paper... Go to the back alley, go to the bathhouse, go to the ham bang bang... Is it a travel guide?"

"But the handwriting on this paper..."

She could tell at a glance whose handwriting it was.

"The notes he left while controlling the library?"

“Haha… She actually left behind something so “cute”.”

This kind of human desire meant nothing to him, and was even more like a piece of waste paper to her who had sat on the throne for 13 years.

This is more like the spell written by some people during their chuunibyou period. They are all memories that they don’t want to recall, so the book hunter will laugh.

"What else is there..."

Although the last line was crossed out, it was only blocked by a horizontal line, and the content could still be recognized.

"Eating stew? Why would you write about this?"

She remembered that the Librarian did not need to eat. Even though the Librarian had a human body and was still considered a human by the leader, she had long since left the human category.

Why would she write down such a ridiculous thing when she doesn't need to eat?

"And... with Roland?"

"If it was Roland..."

She still remembered the name Roland, but she laughed even louder this time.

"He is the attendant who has been guarding the library since the library came to prominence in the city."

"Moreover, he is called Dark Silence, and he is also the partner of the former Dark Silence."

The first time she read the book of Pitch Black, she was deeply impressed.

Most of the books here have notes by the bookworm Bai Sishu, but that book has extra handwriting, more than the other books combined.

Most of the content is about Bai Sishu's regret and sigh.

"How could you... leave such a piece of paper..."

If it were the Book Hunter himself, this piece of paper would have been thrown into the incinerator and disappeared without a trace. The Librarian obviously knows more than himself, so how could he...

"Since you are a human being, you cannot erase your past."

“The past is something you can’t get rid of no matter how hard you struggle.”

"If it were the past, it would indeed be impossible to get rid of it...but this is not the past."

The phantom of the terrifying Bai Sishu appeared in front of them, and they communicated without any obstacles.

"This kind of paper can be torn up or burned. This piece of paper is not your past. It is just self-deception."

“It’s always easy for people to say things about other people, but you know it’s not true.”

"How stupid! This thing is worthless since you killed that man named Roland."

"It is worthless in my eyes...but you won't let it go!"

The Book Hunter regarded Angela as her own divine name, and she could not accept that her divine name was as stupid as those mortals.

"People are like this. Even if it's just a piece of paper like this, it has countless memories of mine engraved on it."

"I can imagine you holding this piece of paper more realistically than anyone else..."

She was right in front of the book hunter, holding the paper in her hand, as if she was showing it to her on purpose.

"Looking at this piece of paper, I can imagine how regretful and sad you will be..."

"Didn't you ever think of looking at me?"

"Your eyes have been fixed on this piece of paper..."

Angela didn't look at her and spoke to herself.

"Nameless child, whatever question you wish to ask, I am afraid I cannot give you an answer."

"After all, I am just your imagination."

……

"I didn't know anything at the time but I still believed and followed you."

"I believe in your words and follow your wishes. I hope you can rest in peace."

"…Then what do I have left?"

"You understand, there won't be any more answers here."

After all, illusions are created by oneself. Fantasy cannot answer questions that one does not understand.
