Chapter 12:Adaptation [4]
Either the skill book had already been used...or the skill book was yet to generate a skill.
Stretching out my hand, I hovered it over the skill book, breathing slowly and catching my breath.
The fact that the world had made a decision on its own had displayed something important to me.
This world was independent.
It wasn't being forced to follow the book...it was choosing to.
At any point, it could stop and decide what would happen next without consulting the book.
Say the protagonist suddenly died; the world could just choose a new one and suddenly shift the plotline, creating events that had never occurred in the book.
In other words, what happened in the book wasn't destined to happen in this world.
Just because the book said I died in ten years didn't mean I couldn't die now.
While I could use it to my advantage, I couldn't rely on my book knowledge for protection.
I had to become strong myself.
