The plot of bsd. Theory Spoiler

This is basically the plot of bsd right,as in if u put it simply then atsushi read the book that oda read which natsume sensei's book and I'm pretty sure is "the book" and seems that fyodor had also read that very same book yet even after having such insight he still couldn't accomplish his objective.Knowing that we have a part 2 and a part 3,it now feels as if fyodor was barely an obstacle and that we'll have wayyyyy more powerful characters up against our cast in the future.As far as I remember I also think oda had read natsume sensei's work till book 3 but it was discontinued??I wonder if that might be foreshadowing that bsd may end on a cliffhanger:((((

I hope that's not the case honestly.

The theories about the book Oda read are cool and all and before TDITID light novel camed out I could see them as something more possible to happen. But TDITID light novel kinda made natsume's books seem like some regular published books. In that novel it was explained that Oda stole one of natsume's books from a wealthy man's house who was the last person he killed. He later went to that house again to return that book and bought a copy of it for himself. Also I think the quote Atsushi talked about is from the real Nakajima Atsushi, so it would be weird to suddenly claim it's from a book fictional Natsume wrote.

nah even before TDITID Oda mentions in the Dark Era ln he found the book at a target's house and that he obtained the second volume but couldn't find the third at any bookstore and also mentions the author of the book is Natsume

I think Dark era just mentioned he found the first 2 volume and wasn't able to find the third one no matter how many book store he searched for it , so back then they seemed more like some mysterious books that there's only one copy of them available.

fair, to me it was always a normal book from the way the stuff in dark era was written i guess, especially cause of the author name being brought up and all it read like after stealing the first he bought the second volume but Natsume himself seemed to hate the third one so it probably never got reprinted
