Chapter 413 Chapter 96 Three Revelations
This is a possibility Alice guessed.
The rituals of each sequence of the "Destiny" path have a sense of confusion, especially Sequence 0 - what does it mean to find the right opportunity in the torrent of destiny?
Now it seems that destiny may have answered this question for them with a common dream.
Alice tried to interpret that horrible dream at the beginning, but unfortunately, she was scared at the time and thought that she might become a potion material.
And now it seems...
Maybe she needs to escape this fate, or, or...
Alice thought of the promotion ceremony of the "Mercury Snake".
...It can't be that my opportunity is a destined death? Wouldn't the two rituals be repeated?
That being said, Alice knew very well that this possibility was not small - if you want to escape from your original destiny, for the extraordinary people of the "Destiny" path, dying first and restarting after death is undoubtedly the best choice.
Putting aside her own situation, if the scene that Will Auceptin saw was swallowing her, Alice suspected that this might be a revelation that was misinterpreted.
- For example, Will Auceptin didn't know that she needed to step on the top of the "Destiny" path alone, but only knew that such an ending was His opportunity.
As for Ouroboros... Ouroboros honestly showed Alice the dream directly, and from His performance, Alice thought it should be true.
He didn't look so thoughtful.
And Ouroboros's dream itself, if it could be considered an opportunity, Alice felt that the dream actually revealed only one meaning - becoming a god has nothing to do with you, don't think about it.
After all, it is a third-person perspective... Of course, if the understanding is a bit off, it might be regarded as a situation of reaping the benefits of being a fisherman? Or, take the initiative to try like Will Auceptin did and instigate her to fight with Will Auceptin...
So, in a sense, Will Auceptin also died because of his own choice, and it was his own fault... No, that's not the right way to say it. It should be said that He was in a hurry to reincarnate.
Klein didn't know Alice's complete guess, and he was not familiar with Will Auceptin, so he didn't make a judgment on Alice's guess, but just reminded her:
"He should know that we know each other, right?"
Alice paused slightly and realized this.
At this point, the relationship between her and Klein should not be hidden from Will Auceptin. Even if Klein changed his face and identity, it would probably be useless.
After all, she could recognize Klein in various costumes - I think the Beyonders of the "Destiny" path are very good at recognizing people in a sense.
However, Alice's goal has been achieved, and it seems that Klein has forgotten to continue asking her what she did - otherwise she should think about how to explain her self-introduction in the City of Silver.
Well, I'll warn Little Sun not to talk nonsense later.
Thinking of this, Alice asked Klein thoughtfully:
"In this case, if you meet Him again, wouldn't it be very dangerous?"
Klein was stunned for a moment, and before he could speak, Alice reached out and patted his shoulder, saying generously:
"How about this, or you can pretend to convert to Him, and then..."
Klein brushed her hand away.
"This is really looking for death!" He rolled his eyes at Alice, "But we haven't met much in reality, maybe..."
"What's the use," Alice curled her lips, "You were next to me when I got the 'uniqueness'."
This is an unsolvable fact. If it were any other scene, Will Auceptin would probably not see it, but it was related to "uniqueness". Will Auceptin probably had a premonition of such a crucial turning point, but it might be too late when he felt it...
It's like Amon followed her home and the spirit reminded her.
Unable to think of a good idea, Klein remembered the question he had forgotten before and asked tentatively:
"So, what did you do in the 'Forsaken Land of God'?"
He looked at Alice, who blinked her innocent eyes at him. After two seconds of silence, Klein realized that Alice had probably done something again.
He opened his mouth to say something, but Alice said to him eagerly as if she was running for her life:
"I have something else to do over there, so I'll leave first!"
Before the voice of resistance came out, Alice had fled above the gray fog.
It was obviously unrealistic to pull back Alice who had just escaped. Klein sat back in his seat with some helplessness, thinking of Anderson's experience. After a moment of silence, he opened his hand towards the pile of debris, and a piece of white paper and a pen flew out of it.
On the front of the white paper was written a sentence in ancient Hermetic language - "The creator of happiness and miracles".
Obviously, this was the real name that Klein had not finished writing.
What happened just now suddenly gave Klein an inspiration. After a moment of contemplation, he wrote down the second sentence on the paper - "The ruler of misfortune and disaster."
Compared to words like "incarnation" and "origin", the word "ruler" seems much more neutral when used in the face of relatively negative authority.
- After all, "incarnation of misfortune" and "origin of misfortune" don't sound like serious gods, but "ruler of misfortune" might be able to help you get rid of misfortunes?
Just like, although the goddess also has disaster and fear in her authority, and there are corresponding descriptions in her honorary name, the goddess is not the "incarnation of disaster and fear", but the "Queen of disaster and fear".
As for Alice's original honorific name, Klein remembered that she once said that it was given by Will Asceptin. Obviously, Will Asceptin did not regard Alice as a serious god - although she Not originally.
Maybe it was Alice who he misled by blindly taking his honorable name? Maybe Alice was a good child after all? After all, the other two descriptions are actually quite positive...
Klein handed the cauldron to Will Asceptin without hesitation.
On the other side, Alice fled above the gray mist as if fleeing. When she opened her eyes and came back to her senses, she happened to catch up with Leo Master's crucial narration:
"Then, I saw a beam of light falling in front of me, and there was a person hidden in it. He said that he was here to save me."
"Wow~" A series of small exclamations rang out. Alice blinked, hugged her knees, changed into a comfortable position and began to listen.
The burgundy-haired girl next to her moved to the side again because of her actions. Alice looked over in confusion. The girl who noticed her gaze gave her a nervous smile.
Alas, they are all so afraid of me, not as good as Little Sun... Alice looked from the side and found Derrick "The Sun" who was three people away from her.
Well, if we change places, it would be better to wait until a story is finished... Thinking this, Alice withdrew her gaze with emotional intelligence.
Leo Master's voice continued: "In that light and shadow, there is a little girl who looks like she has not yet grown up - well, that's her."
After being stunned for a few seconds, Alice caught Leomaster's gaze and realized that he was talking about her.
Alice could feel curious and fearful eyes falling on her, and Leo Master continued:
"At first, I thought he was a little girl who got in there by mistake. I tried to persuade him a few words and reminded him to be careful of the devil outside, but he didn't take it seriously, so I didn't continue to persuade him.
"He walked up to me, bent down and stretched out his hand to me. I thought about it, and in order to cooperate with Him, I stretched out my hand and put it on His hand, and stood up -"
"Then I realized I was almost up to his waist." Alice added the detail that bothered her with a deadpan expression.
This sentence was filled with sincere feelings. The girl with burgundy hair who was closest to Alice finally couldn't hold it back and burst into laughter. When Alice turned her head away expressionlessly, her smile froze on her face again.
"So," Alice asked sincerely and resentfully, "why are you all so tall?"
The members of the Silver City exploration team looked at each other. Derrick "The Sun" who was familiar with Alice said under the admiring eyes of Haim and Joshua:
"Many of us have giant blood, and we inherit the magic potion of the 'Warrior' path. Under the influence of the magic potion, our height is much higher than that of normal people.
"As for the Extraordinaries who take the 'Warrior' path, as their sequence level increases, their height will become even more exaggerated..."
Alice looked at the chief demigod not far away who was secretly observing here, and asked with slight confusion:
“Isn’t your chief an Extraordinary of the ‘Warrior’ path?
"Isn't he already a demigod? He's not much taller..."
This seemed to be Derrick's knowledge blind spot. He was confused for a moment and looked at his companions for help.
After Heim next to him received his gaze, he followed Alice's words: "I heard that the chief has the form of a giant..."
Immediately afterwards, Joshua, wearing a pair of fiery red gloves, also spoke:
"During the previous exploration, I also discussed with Haim. If the chief transforms into a giant form, will his clothes burst?"
"Yes," Haim continued, "But when Joshua and I planned to share this joke with Derrick, we found that he was missing..."
The conversation between the two of them not only explained the situation to Alice, but also introduced their names without any trace.
Alice tilted her head and asked after pondering for a few seconds:
"So, will your clothes burst?"
They were obviously stunned for a moment, and then Heim said:
"Unless the clothes are magical items, it is inevitable that the clothes will burst... Or, you can ask the chief?"
You... Alice frowned slightly and said to them:
"My name is Alice."
She opened her head. After looking at each other, the man sitting on the other side of the burgundy-haired girl put his arm around her shoulders and smiled at Alice:
“Speaking of which, it seems like we haven’t introduced ourselves yet.
"My name is Dolores, and this is Antierna. When we go back this time, we should be getting married."
Alice looked at them in surprise, thought for a moment, and asked slightly curiously:
"Can I come to your wedding?"
"Wedding?" Dolores glanced at her doubtfully, "I seem to have read about it in a book..."
Alice immediately realized that she had said the wrong thing, and she bit her lower lip before saying:
"Sorry, I……"
"Can you tell me?" Antierna said almost at the same time as her.
Alice stopped speaking, met her eyes, and after a moment of silence she said softly:
"On the outside land, if people who love each other want to be together for a lifetime, they will swear an oath in front of the priest of the god of faith in the witness of their parents and friends...
"They will entertain guests with flowers and wedding dresses. At the end of the wedding, the bride will throw out a bouquet, and the newlyweds who receive it will be happy..."
"It sounds so beautiful..." Antierna showed a longing expression.
Others were no exception. Even the chief's eyes seemed to freeze for a few minutes. After more than ten seconds, Alice finally couldn't stand the oppressive atmosphere and said:
“I can help you with your wedding!
"Although, although I am not a priest, I...well, I remember that you should call angels followers of God - right?"
Alice looked at Antierna and Dolores with confirmation, and it was obvious that they were a little confused about this.
——From God, but also from God.
In the silence, the chief came over and sat next to Alice.
Alice turned to look at him in confusion. The chief's expression showed no emotion. He said in the same emotionless voice:
"Miss Destiny, you won't necessarily still be here when the time comes, right?"
Alice paused for a moment before hearing the chief continue: "I remember you said at the beginning that you came here to ask for directions?"
Alice...Alice would never admit that she almost forgot about it.
She glanced at the sky guiltily, but there was nothing in the sky. She had no choice but to lower her head and look at the ground. Without saying a word, she stretched out her fingers and began to draw circles on the ground.
The chief looked at her movements and fell into deep thought.
Leomaster asked with some confusion: "...haven't you asked Lord Ouroleus?"
"Uh," Alice raised her head hesitantly, "I asked, but, uh, but I think He might think I'm sick."
She paused, and then replied in a stern voice: "I asked Him how to escape without being caught by Him..."
The chief couldn't help but glance at Derrick and found that Derrick had lowered his head and looked very used to this kind of thing.
The chief looked back in Alice's direction with some hesitation and remained silent for the time being.
Leomaster was stunned for a moment, and asked subconsciously: "...Did Lord Ourolius tell you?"
"No," Alice shook her head, "He, He let me go..."
The chief looked at Alice thoughtfully and asked again:
"So, what path did you originally want to ask?" (End of Chapter)
