Chapter 102: Probing

"Who do you think I am?"

Chumen's body was changing; the space behind him was completely occupied by Dream Bubbles, and Dream tentacles with the Starry Sky as their background slowly extended out, while the Dream Book in his hand also flickered with bursts of Dream Phosphor.

He was like that infinitely magnificent Starry Sky, the most beautiful Fantasy in the hearts of all living beings.

That pale golden figure suddenly calmed down; looking at the Dream Mythical Creature Form Chumen displayed, He gave a response.

"Long time no see, Dream."

"Hmm?" Chumen's tone carried a hint of pleasure; he seemed still immersed in the sense of achievement from startling the Wishing Lamp, and did not respond directly.

Before obtaining enough information, he wanted to understand the Wishing Lamp more, rather than revealing too much about his own situation.

"I didn't expect you to have fallen to such a state as well," the pale golden figure hummed softly.

You... are you looking for the Victims' Alliance? Chumen silently complained to himself.

"Only you; I am doing very well right now," Chumen retorted without hesitation, "And you are just a lamp now, tsk, you were quite thoroughly deceived by 'Mysteries', weren't you?"

The pale golden figure swayed slightly, and Chumen could clearly perceive that His mood was gradually worsening.

Did I push too hard... Chumen reflected on himself.

"Stop talking about those meaningless things; why did you come to find me?" The Wishing Lamp's mood was somewhat poor, and He asked in a deep voice.

"..." Chumen blinked his eyes, "I just happened to see this thing in the Starry Sky."

The palm-sized Pyramid that had just been put away reappeared in Chumen's other hand.

He tossed the Pyramid up and down, revealing the aura within the Pyramid.

"..." The golden light on the Wishing Lamp's body condensed.

"I also saw a 'Fog of Uncertainty', it felt somewhat familiar..." Chumen continued, while also observing the Wishing Lamp's reaction.

"Hmph!" The Wishing Lamp snorted, not dwelling on this question, but instead pulling the topic back to matters concerning Himself.

"Give me that mausoleum, then send me outside the Barrier," the Wishing Lamp proposed His demand.

"What do you want? The conditions can be negotiated."

As expected, this Pyramid mausoleum is something that can be utilized by the Wishing Lamp... Chumen's eyes narrowed slightly; he had made such an assumption based on the power remaining in that Pyramid, and now it was confirmed.

It's just that I don't know how to utilize it... Is it related to resurrection? Then I cannot give it to you easily.

"What can you do in your current state?" Chumen feigned disdain.

The pale golden light on the Wishing Lamp's body dimmed by another fraction, but the hope of escaping was right before His eyes, and He needed to seize it, "I can grant you three wishes right now, and I promise that after I fully return, I will agree to three of your conditions."

"As long as it is kept within a certain limit, I will not break my promise."

"Heh." Chumen knew that the "Child of Chaos" possessed the Authority to cause Distortion to everything, so he did not respond directly.

"You are too greedy!" The Wishing Lamp's slightly dim gaze suddenly flashed bright, staring straight at Chumen.

Chumen frowned, sensing power surging like a tidal wave.

This power was chaotic and disordered, but his own Dream Phosphor was also subconsciously resisting.

"Your power!" Suddenly, there seemed to be a sense of shock in the Wishing Lamp's voice.

Chumen's mouth twitched; sure enough, he had no talent for becoming a "Deception" expert.

Of course, this was not a problem with his performance, but a problem with the Dream Book.

"It is you, and yet it is not you!" The Wishing Lamp instantly relaxed a lot.

Chumen was expressionless; riddle-makers never end up well.

"No need to pretend, what you are using is not 'Dream'."

Without even needing Chumen to ask, the Wishing Lamp had already stated the reason for His judgment.

The "Dream" here refers to the complete "Dream" Authority; it is too powerful, to the extent that Chumen can only control it by splitting it.

It is similar to the relationship between "Omniscient and Omnipotent" and Authorities like "Storm" and "Fantasy".

Taking the Creator as an example, after He became a Quasi-Great Old One, even using the "Sun" Authority would carry a certain power of a higher level.

The power of the Dream Book that Chumen currently masters has not yet reached that level.

However, this Wishing Lamp is much more relaxed than before... Chumen keenly noticed this point.

"From the very beginning you started asking me who you are; it was too deliberate. Compared to 'Mysteries', you are far behind. He would first carry out Deception, and then achieve His goal silently and without a sound." The Wishing Lamp seemed to have seen through something, and His mood became pleasant.

"Tsk, can one even gain experience in Deception from being deceived?" Chumen immediately retorted, causing the Wishing Lamp's pleasure to come to an abrupt halt; now it was Chumen's turn to be pleased.

"Don't you want to know what will happen after you fall into a deep sleep?" The golden light on the Wishing Lamp's body trembled violently; He shifted the topic extremely forcefully.

His gaze fell upon the Divinity Badge on Chumen's chest, which made Him even more certain of His guess.

"Use those three Uniques to lift my Seal and send me back to the Starry Sky, and I will tell you the answer." The Wishing Lamp's confidence became extremely sufficient.

"Your situation is very special; within the Barrier, only I can answer your questions now."

"'God' is about to awaken," Chumen countered.

"..." The Wishing Lamp's aura stalled, but He quickly adjusted His mindset, "I have no conflict with Him; we can even be considered allies."

Allies in opposing "Mysteries", right...

"But you, do you dare to face Him?" The Wishing Lamp looked straight at Chumen with a half-smile.

"You might not believe it if I say it, but I am currently an Angel of the Creator." Chumen directly began Roaming with the Wishing Lamp in tow, returning to the Dream Territory.

The light around the Wishing Lamp's body shrank violently; perhaps He felt the aura of the Creator and was a bit triggered.

"You really became His Angel?!" The Wishing Lamp was greatly shocked, and then suddenly burst into laughter, "Hahaha! You became His Angel!"

"For us, Fate is still wonderful indeed!"

This laughter was extremely heroic and magnificent, causing the Fairy Tale Castle to tremble a few times.

Is it that funny? Chumen's eyes flickered.

After a few seconds, the Wishing Lamp's laughter stopped, "You can probably perceive who holds the greatest malice toward you; you actually dared to become His Angel and stay here?!"

"He still needs some time," Chumen replied calmly; it was foreseeable that his relationship with "God" and "Mysteries" was not very good.

After all, that true "God" even risked being discovered prematurely to secretly influence the current Creator in order to test him.

"Not far off now." The Genie looked up at the sky outside and made his own judgment, "This place truly has the scent of 'God' already."

Chumen frowned slightly, then relaxed.

This was about the same as what he had estimated; there were still a few hundred years left until the time he had calculated, and the resurrection of that being would also be a process, so starting now was quite reasonable.
