My Vampire Older Sister and Zombie Little Sister

Creation is a job for the gods.

We can only come up with limitless ideas within the elements given to us. We must not conceitedly claim we can create any and all colors with the three primary colors of RGB. That also means we must always use those three colors no matter what we do. We can only use what was prepared for us ahead of time. We are not allowed to add a fourth primary color into the mix. Such a safe and oppressive freedom.

…I thought I might be able to accomplish such an absurd dream if I took revenge against the gods in heaven, stripped them of their vessel of flesh, and placed my own soul within it, but, well, no use crying over spilt milk.

I must move on.

There is much I want to do. I have yet to test even a tenth of this prison. I can think of so much I want to do and test. If I am not careful, I fear I will lose focus and abandon my own plan. That is how vast this world is, but surprisingly few people have realized its value.

So few people have realized this world is a prison.

Perhaps that is because it is so vast that no one can see the walls and bars at the farthest reaches.

In most mythologies, the gods live somewhere cut off from the human world. Reaching that place is often the ultimate objective given to humanity. And needless to say, the world was supposedly created by the gods, yet it is so full of suffering. To the point that being exiled from the home of the gods is sometimes used as a form of punishment.

Will you accept that as long as you feel free?

Is it not a problem for you as long as you are comfortable?

Not so for me. I feel otherwise. So I will gather everything I can and use it as a weapon. Everything in this prison has value. A single wire can be used to unlock a door. Sharpen the end of a chopstick and it becomes a weapon. That is how I have made my attempts. So very many attempts. The Hidden Cloud made a fair amount of progress, but that method would never work. So I must reassess the prison’s overall diagram and find a different route to the exit.

Yes.

I wish to stage a jailbreak.

I have no interest in original sin. Matters of good and evil are of no concern to me. Just like all other selfish jailbreakers, I simply cannot bear the oppression of this comfortable cage.
