Bai Lu is a wise-maniac that goes beyond human limits. He's greedy because of money and spends on cheap products because he doesn't want to spend lavishly. He is a keeper to his promises IF he got something in return or the person trusts him in their life.
For example, he is severely injured, to the point that he has one life left, yet, he still wants to court himself to death and lived.
If someone wants him to do something and their price is valuable, he does not fail their expectations.
And you know what is more incredible? He treats the horror game like a JOB. Even I could not believe it.
He also has the worst luck of them all, like goddamn! (And this is just my theory, but I think the reason why his luck is zero is due to our ML. Who is- !)
ML rarely shows up. He mostly shows up at a critical time.
Xie ta/Sheta/Taville is a being that has been put to slumber until MC appeared in the game world. Originally, he's related to MC's past and MC's weakness.
I can say that he's not an overbearing character from the way he interacts with MC. He's an aloof person with an aura that could make anyone think differently, blaming him. I think he likes poetry or philosophy due to his words.
In the game, he subtly helps MC. However, he has limits to doing so.
Interactions from Ch. 215
(My Favorite Part from the Rose Factory Arc)
SpoilerItalic sentences are Tavielle talking to Bai Lu.
"My future? What about you? Your summer will not wither, right?" Bai Lu joked.
"I don't have summer.
I only... shared your summer.
This summer is pleasantly beautiful. It's the most beautiful summer I've ever seen, but these... don't belong to me.
I will always leave."

"You're leaving again, aren't you?" Bai Lu asked.
"We will meet again.
This place is not your rosy summer. I won't stay here, and you should not stay here.
When the sun disappears in three quarters, there will be people looking for you. Don't be afraid of the difference brought by death. Don't be scared of the damaged inverted cross in the middle of a snowfield
Don't be afraid of living or dying.
Don't be afraid that I will leave your summer.
I am a *Spoiler* without summer, but I have the whole winter waiting for you."
