pat!
The sound of a doorknob being turned was heard, and then the door was pushed open from the outside, and a man in a black suit walked in.
He glanced around the room, then walked straight to the made-up bed.
Behind him, in the dressing mirror on the dressing table, Sirian's face suddenly appeared, peering out with curiosity.
"Is this the father Will Unsetin chose for himself? Or is it Dr. Allen?"
"Speaking of which... Will must be over a thousand years old by now, and he must have rebooted quite a few times. His parents alone could probably form a platoon, right?"
click!
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard the sound of the illusory mirror world shattering.
"Don't be so stingy, your account is still in my hands."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of something like a mirror shattering became even clearer.
"So stingy..." he muttered to himself, while Cyril dragged his wheelchair with one hand and stretched out the other, pressing it lightly into the air.
Without a sound, an illusory door appeared.
After he left the mirror world with Will Unsett's "corpse," countless spiderweb-like cracks suddenly appeared around him.
Whoosh!
This mirror world seemed to have suffered an unbearable blow and shattered instantly.
In reality, on the dressing table in the bedroom that Will Onsetine had just restarted, a deep mirror suddenly shattered.
"Huh? How did the mirror break?"
In Sirion's bedroom, layers of eerie blue light suddenly rippled across the full-length mirror in the corner. Sirion then dragged the wheelchair and Will Onsett's "corpse" that was placed on it out of the mirror.
After thinking for two seconds, he put the wheelchair and body back behind the mirror.
"I feel like a murderer struggling with how to dispose of a body right now..."
He muttered something under his breath, glanced at the full-length mirror in front of him, and asked in a low voice:
"Adam, are you there?"
Less than half a second later, Adam's gentle voice resonated in his mind:
"I am here."
"Will Unsett's suggestion is a good one. If you want his promise more, you can just destroy the body."
"It's not difficult. After the reboot, it's just an ordinary corpse. Although there are some unusual features, they are not reflected in the corpse itself."
After a two-second silence, he said, "Then cremate him."
He paused, then asked, "Is everything Will Onsetin said true?"
Adam's voice then rang out: "I can't be sure if it's true or false, but I can be sure that he didn't lie."
"Even at the level above true gods, fate is still mysterious; it is not impossible."
Cyril nodded thoughtfully, then asked, "Is there anything special about the 'Key of Light'?"
This time, Adam remained silent for several seconds before giving his answer:
"I can't be sure, after all, I don't have that much of an understanding of fate."
"However, I once used my 'omniscience and omnipotence' to deduce some things. The 'Key of Light' might be the only source material besides the 'Mother Nest' that hasn't been touched by the Celestials or God."
"Why?" Sirien immediately became interested and quickly asked.
This was a genuine secret he had never known before.
Adam did not conceal anything: "According to the calculations of 'Omniscient and Omnipotent,' the two most important symbols of the Old Ones corresponding to the 'Key of Light' are 'Endless Chaos' and 'The Incarnation of Destiny.'"
"Among them, 'Incarnation of Destiny' refers to the River of Destiny itself, while 'Endless Chaos' refers to the essence of this world, the chaos of the underlying rules, and the chaos of the River of Destiny itself. This is also the fundamental reason why a 'Destiny Ruler' cannot be born."
"Because the River of Fate is inherently chaotic and cannot be completely controlled like the Astral Realm or the Spirit Realm."
"I see." Sirien nodded thoughtfully.
He had always found it strange that fate, which could support the birth of the three Great Old Ones and also divide into symbols like "Beacons of Destiny," with many prophecies, premonitions, and misfortunes distributed outwards, was so powerful yet had no supporting pillar.
He paused, then said, half to himself and half inquiring:
"In other words, the absolutely rational world claimed by the Life School truly exists, and is as complete as the astral realm and the spirit realm, forming an important part of the world, only that its chaotic nature prevents it from being completely controlled by humans?"
Adam: "That's one way to think about it."
Cyril nodded and continued to ask:
"Did the Celestial Venerable not accept the 'Key of Light' because it represents the chaos and uncertainty of destiny, and conflicts with the symbolism of the 'Beacon of Destiny'?"
Adam: "Or perhaps it is, or perhaps the pillars have reached the limit of stable existence and can no longer tolerate chaos."
"It's also possible that the 'Key of Light' holds secrets we don't know."
"From the madness of the Second Age to the present, the 'Wheel of Fortune' has never appeared, nor even had the possibility of appearing. Perhaps this in itself is a manifestation of 'endless chaos.'"
This is really a trap.
I always feel that every extraordinary path on this planet has its own pitfalls, even if some of them have already been traversed.
Some have not yet been discovered.
As his thoughts drifted, Adam's voice rang out again:
"You'd better dispose of that body quickly. If you want to take this opportunity to see Urolius, you can leave it for now."
"I see."
After thinking it over for two seconds, he decided not to mess with Will Unsett, since he was already so unlucky.
"I can't quite accept the idea of a corpse amulet, and directly dumping the body isn't really an option, but destroying it would be such a waste. How about..."
As he muttered to himself, he suddenly looked up at the ceiling and thought of an excellent hiding place for the body.
Above the gray fog, Klein stared with a dark expression at the corpse of a child missing a lower leg that Cyril had brought up through a sacrificial ritual.
"If he murdered and disposed of the body, am I now considered an accomplice?"
As he struggled with how to remind the other person that he was not an evil god and did not accept such bloody sacrifices, Cyrien's prayer echoed in the space above the gray mist:
"Respected 'Fool,' this is the corpse of a 'Mercury Serpent.' Although its extraordinary characteristics have separated upon its reactivation, some divine remnants still remain."
"I don't know what to do with him for the time being, and I'm worried that keeping him around will be discovered by another 'Mercury Serpent,' so I'd like to temporarily store him in your divine kingdom. I'm willing to pay a certain price for this."
This has led to me being offered a business opportunity to store hazardous materials!
After hesitating for a while, he nodded helplessly and passed on his response:
"Can."
At night, Xireen sat at his desk, watching the crimson moon gradually pierce through the clouds outside the window, no longer waning, and paused for half a second before remembering that it was a full moon!
A pale pink veil, like water, falls from the sky, sprinkling the earth and bringing spiritual nourishment and enhanced life.
About two or three seconds later, he heard a series of illusory prayers.
Gazing at the crimson moon outside the window, he hesitated for a moment before deciding to draw the curtains. Then he closed his eyes and meditated, allowing his spirit to ascend to a dimension overlooking all things through the connection established by his prayers.
As soon as he calmed down, he skillfully reached out and pulled out a dark curtain out of thin air, throwing it at Owen who was praying, to shield him from the real Crimson Moon.
In reality, Owen, who was clutching his head and praying with difficulty, suddenly felt the surroundings darken, and the words of reply he heard disappeared silently.
"No matter how many times, it always feels magical to me."
"Perhaps I have found a way to help the Abraham family break free from the blood curse, but unfortunately I am not yet at Sequence 7."
There was no way to contact the family's elders.
"Hmm...it's not entirely impossible. Cyril is already an 'astrologer,' I can ask him to help open that box."
"This is to resolve the issue of the bloodline curse, and the elders of the council will surely understand."
Above the dimension, Cyril, who heard Irving's self-talk, was speechless.
"Even if I worked myself to death, I couldn't possibly protect the entire Abrahamic family at the same time..."
"And once I'm away from Backlund, I probably won't be able to answer prayers anymore."
At the same time, inside the ancient palace above the gray fog.
Klein, seated on the high-backed chair of "The Fool," exuded spirituality and touched the ever-expanding crimson star representing "The Magician," Fors.
In an instant, the figure of "The Magician" Fors appeared on a chair to his right.
Noticing the terrifying whispers that had been echoing in his ears had disappeared, Fors breathed a sigh of relief, rose from his chair, and bowed to the head of the table, "The Fool" Klein:
"Dear Mr. 'Fool,' you have saved me once again."
Klein leaned back in his chair in a good mood and replied in a very nonchalant tone:
"This is nothing to worry about."
Fors was surprised, stunned, then silent, and finally sat back down in his seat.
The two remained silent for two or three minutes, until "Magician" Fors was so embarrassed he was practically digging his toes into the ground.
Klein finally spoke up:
"You can tell me your story, like how you became an 'apprentice'."
He was indeed very curious about the "magician" lady who was subject to the language of the full moon. He had asked Cyril about this before as "the world" and was told that only members of the Abraham family could hear this language, which was a blood curse of that ancient family.
Perhaps Miss "Magician" is a member of the Abraham family who was lost to the outside world?
It's also possible that she established a connection with the being who uttered the Full Moon Eating Word through other means, and because she happened to be an Extraordinary being in the "Apprentice" pathway, this connection was able to remain stable.
If it's the second possibility, then she's a bit unlucky. Unfortunately, I'm not the true "King of Yellow and Black who holds the key to good fortune," so I can't change her luck.
