Lu Guili, whose very name made everyone at headquarters tremble, had once rebooted an entire interstellar microcosm countless times on his own.
Cold and ruthless, he had watched the memories and emotions of billions of reboots finally burst through the bottle's neck, turning him to darkness. Unwilling to live as a puppet on strings, he threw himself into the game, wagering the entire interstellar microcosm to force the 'gods' to appear and bargain with him.
No one knew that, after witnessing his people destroyed countless times, his emotions had grown so faint that he had long since despaired of a world like this.
Until Jiang Yu'an accidentally broke the cycle of reboots and reunited with him on the wrong timeline.
She, too, had a past full of wounds. She struggled through countless unchangeable visions of the future, yet never sank into the abyss.
Everyone feared Lu Guili's coldness. Only she would patiently take his icy hand again and again.
He should have met his end amid the countless reboots, but his little sun could always make him feel an endless peace.
When the endless night quietly came to an end, Lu Guili, adrift in the sea of stars, finally found Yu'an.
