I am just an ordinary person.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"My cognition of humanity is also very shallow, not that profound.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ren Amamiya didn't consider himself a learned professor who could speak eloquently to so many people with better brains than his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>What he could say was only shallow cognition.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Humanity, I think, is a manifestation of desire.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"People who have no desires have already lost so-called humanity; I don't think there really exists a person in this world who has no desires.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Perhaps, even gods cannot achieve having no desires.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"If so, then gods might not need so-called faith, and might not even need power anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"But without power or faith, can gods still be respectfully called gods?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Therefore, gods actually also possess humanity.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"So, I also think that desire and emotion are the most intuitive manifestations of humanity.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But suddenly, Ren Amamiya's tone changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Of course, I am not talking about endless desire and emotion, but emotional fluctuations that can be controlled within one's own range.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Once desire and emotion completely lose control, they will also become beasts held hostage by desire and emotion.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Therefore, humans are truly very complex animals.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"The final conclusion is that humans need to distinguish the difference between themselves and beasts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Therefore, humanity is a kind of self-limitation, and also the biggest distinction between humans and beasts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The reason why humans understand what a limit is, is because humans possess humanity.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Just like if a beast understood what a limit was, the beast would also produce corresponding humanity.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>At that time, the beast would also begin to transform toward the direction of humans bit by bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The path of sequences is such that even true gods need anchors to maintain humanity.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Once gods lose humanity, they easily fall into loss of control.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Therefore, the stronger the power one possesses, the more one needs to pay attention to humanity.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The more this is the case, the more one must know how to guard one's original heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ren Amamiya doesn't know how those Sequence 0 gods do it; what he can do is follow his own rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Don't let yourself live like a beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After a speech, Ren Amamiya himself had many feelings.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>To this, Kaguya Sigong also probably understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In the situation of receiving that power, her own heart also appeared to fluctuate.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>When there is no choice, one can only resign oneself to fate.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But in the situation of having a choice, power is the best choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But when using power, one needs to exercise self-restraint, not wanton indulgence.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Once one passes that degree, one will break through one's own bottom line.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Humanity will also constantly decrease as the bottom line is broken through.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In the end, one will become exactly the same as those drug dealers.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"But Ren Amamiya, in this case, does power still have the meaning of pursuit?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This question made Ren Amamiya understand that Kaguya had produced confusion on the path of pursuing power, and he also understood the general reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"You are thinking that we need to maintain humanity, so pursuing power has no meaning?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"If you don't use that power, and you have to exercise self-restraint when facing difficulties, it loses its meaning?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Kaguya Sigong nodded slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The other girls also pricked up their ears; they wanted to hear Ren Amamiya's thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But the next second, one sentence from Ren Amamiya made them completely confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Maintaining humanity is to let you exercise self-restraint, not to let you be aggrieved.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"When someone provokes you right in front of you, self-restraint doesn't mean letting you endure being bullied, but letting you, after teaching that provocateur a harsh lesson, restrain yourself from expanding the matter indefinitely because of this provocateur.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"When encountering this kind of trash, what you need to do is one thing: step on his face hard and let him understand that provoking you is the most wrong choice he ever made.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Kaguya, you need to know that sometimes, not letting your thoughts be clear when facing aggrieved situations is very easy to cause psychological problems.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Therefore, for your own mental health, Kaguya, you need to learn how to retaliate more reasonably and more comfortably.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Instead of enduring it and making yourself uncomfortable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This set of arguments directly made Kaguya Sigong confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>She had never thought there would be such a statement.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Buddhism emphasizes putting down the butcher's knife and becoming a Buddha on the spot.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"But Taoism emphasizes that whoever wants to become a Buddha can become a Buddha; anyway, I won't become a Buddha.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Therefore, Kaguya, you need to change your attitude.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"In the future, when others bully you, don't be polite; you should bully them back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Power is for you to do this kind of thing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Of course, when there is no power, Ren Amamiya would not maintain this mood.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>When there is no power, one needs to remain Buddhist-like; otherwise, too many trivial things will give you a headache.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But after possessing power, when encountering some things, one needs to act according to one's heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Just like the several times Ren Amamiya meddled.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Also, Kaguya, pursuing power is not meaningless.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"I think, for girls, this should be considered the most meaningful thing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"How so?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Kaguya Sigong was slightly stunned; her brain hadn't fully reacted yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The previous topic really made her a bit confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"When power is pursued to a certain degree, a very common phenomenon will appear.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"The more powerful the power, the more it will transform oneself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"In the situation of mastering more powerful power, one's own lifespan will also be extended accordingly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Eternal life should be very difficult to pursue, but longevity is foreseeable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The difficulty of eternal life is very high, but the difficulty of longevity is not as high as eternal life.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And as power increases, Ren Amamiya feels that everyone should have the qualification for longevity.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>If one is luckier, eternal life is not impossible to pursue.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And then there is a problem that girls value more.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"In the situation where longevity is foreseeable, I think you should be able to experience the effect of not aging, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Not aging...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Kaguya Sigong was stunned for a moment, then understood the meaning of these two words.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"In other words, pursuing power can also keep one young forever!?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Before Kaguya Sigong could react, Chika Fujiwara, who had been leaning on Ren Amamiya in exhaustion, jumped up.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>At this moment, her complexion was also ruddy, completely without the weakness just now.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Yes, it is possible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After getting Ren Amamiya's affirmative answer, the previous discussion about power became meaningless.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Because the girls already understood that this power was definitely something to be pursued.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Longevity and not aging—there is really no pursuit more intuitive than these two.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Chr\u002F>\u003Cp>\u003Cem>— Author's Notes —\u003C\u002Fem>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>PS: New book is out, seeking data.\u003C\u002Fp>",1157,"2026-06-16T13:57:59.511Z","2026-06-17T08:54:56.017Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","fe9e41e866ba936269d162d16a7c9efaba81def79ea3f546f67cc1568573d906","writing-a-diary-in-a-world-of-anime-chapter-118","writing-a-diary-in-a-world-of-anime-chapter-116",269,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwriting-a-diary-in-a-world-of-anime-cover.jpg"]
