"It's not okay to be so lackluster, at least have some dreams."
"I don't have dreams. I'm just a clone."
"Really?"
"..."
The conversation between the two ended in the silence of Guo Xin Layman.
Dreams?
Such a distant thing.
He was born with a mission, but now that the goal was gone, all that was left of the mission was to obey orders.
"You are a clone created from Jiraiya's genes. Jiraiya himself was somewhat easygoing, lecherous, fond of freedom, and liked to write novels. Maybe you could try turning your experiences into a motivational novel," suggested Otsutsuki Sakura. "After all, your experiences are different from Jiraiya's; more serious and mature."
"I will consider it." Guo Xin Layman removed his mask, revealing a face very similar to Jiraiya's but slightly younger.
Removing the mask meant he was to live for himself.
