Chapter 115: The Initial Prophecy
The crux of the contradiction is no longer about blocking or not blocking.
When Leodero threw the Lightning Spear to attack the True God, he was already challenging the True God.
This is enough to prove that Leodero possesses sufficient courage; a part of his ritual to become a god is already complete, and as for the rest, they are merely minor details.
Everything seems to have returned to the trajectory that Chumen knows.
Chumen's body froze in place, a sense of frustration uncontrollably emerging in his heart, and a certain feeling of powerlessness exploded within him as well.
"This is the trend of history."
The voice of the Mysteries sounded, containing infinite power within its calmness.
Chumen had said this sentence, and Sasriel had said it, but neither carried as much weight as it did now, to the point that Chumen felt a sense of powerlessness similar to that of the Elf Queen at the end of the Second Epoch.
Of course, Chumen did not question it, as that would only bring the Mysteries greater pleasure.
"The essence of fate and history is actually the game between me and Him."
"Whether it is the 'Key of Light' or the 'Circle of Inevitability,' they are merely wanderers in fate, holding onto a fulcrum of their own in the game between me and Him."
The Mysteries revealed a truth that is extremely close to the essence of this world.
The First Epoch was when the complete forms of those two fought on this planet; at that time, even the "Fallen Mother Goddess" avoided the sharpness of these two.
By the end of the fight, both had accommodated multiple Source Qualities and could no longer suppress the convergence impulse, ultimately both falling into a "slumber" in the Chaos Sea.
Only after that was the Second Epoch of ignorance for all things, an era laid out by the Omniscient and Omnipotent; His backup plans awakened from the Chaos Sea, gradually reclaiming scattered Authorities and allowing the will of "God" to revive.
Therefore, in this era, the backup plan of the Mysteries failed, and Amanises became the Demon Wolf of the Darkness Pathway.
And in that era, wasn't the trend of history pushed by the Dream Council exactly what the Omniscient and Omnipotent wanted to see?
A "Dream" appeared among them, but it still could not influence the general trend.
The Third Epoch also seems to be the era of "God," but in this final time, the Mysteries counterattacked strongly, also revealing the power of being a Pillar.
The result was that "God" fell back into a slumber, and His successor was unable to maintain the status of a Quasi-Great Old One.
This is the trend of history that the Mysteries and the "Fallen Mother Goddess" hoped to see.
This trend of history is so surging and magnificent that even the true "God" could not reverse it, destined to head toward a conclusion of fragmentation.
"Dream is special enough, but the you of now is no longer Him."
"If you want to pursue the real, you must pay the price."
"Now, who can resist us?" the Mysteries said indifferently.
"I can, and you can too." Suddenly, in Chumen's mind, beyond the voice of the "Mysteries," a gentle voice rang out.
It was Sasriel!
Chumen looked at this old friend whom he had known for many years.
Today, Sasriel is infinitely close to death; the energies of darkness, twilight, war, and life are eroding His last trace of vitality.
But these things are not irreversible; Sasriel could even instantly recover just by using the Authority of "Omniscient and Omnipotent."
But at that moment, His will would also be suppressed by "God," and in that case, He would likely never have the chance to wake up again.
The core battlefield became eerily quiet, and all the gods and Kings of Angels were watching.
Leodero widened his eyes, feeling the abnormality of his own Characteristic.
Regardless of what he thought before acting, he has now effectively become a traitor.
The other True Gods or Kings of Angels also realized something and were waiting for something.
It was not even just them; all the Angels of the world had come here, only staying outside the core battlefield.
"No need to blame yourself; this is the ending I chose." The current Sasriel is the combination of the Ancient Sun God and the Dark Angel, the real him.
The Characteristics within him were already unstable because of the start of Leodero's ritual, having a tendency to separate.
Once the tendency to separate appeared, it was unstoppable.
He had already predicted his own ending, and even saw the further future.
"He is just habitually deceiving and fooling." Sasriel's words carried a certain power, allowing Chumen to break free from his chaotic thoughts.
This sentence reminded Chumen that the Mysteries had previously fooled Chumen once.
Afterward, because "Eternal Day" could not be fooled, He began to deceive through words, attempting to negate Chumen on a mental level.
"You know me well?" The Mysteries squeezed into the conversation between Chumen and Sasriel.
"This is omniscience." Sasriel was very gentle and also answered the Mysteries.
"Fake." The Mysteries sneered, "This is the biggest trap you have stepped into."
The Mysteries did not mind adding some trouble for "God" and giving this successor some insignificant advice.
"Omniscient and Omnipotent, as long as you grasp this Authority, you will be unable to help but explore His memories; that is an irresistible impulse."
"But the more you know, the closer you get to Him."
"This is unavoidable." Sasriel did not care; the Omniscient and Omnipotent must walk such a path.
Afterward, Sasriel directly ignored the Mysteries and looked at Chumen.
"Do you still remember the prophecy I gave you when I first met you?" Sasriel asked softly.
"Dream achieves reality?!" Chumen's eyes lit up, and he had some ideas.
"I only just found out too; the prophecy will be fulfilled at this time, but how it is fulfilled still depends on yourself."
Chumen's main body was outside the core battlefield; at this very moment, his Spirituality was stirred, and he took out the Dream Book, gently flipping to the fifth page.
This would be the final stage for him to decompose the "Dream" Authority.
"Dream achieves reality?" Chumen tilted his head and thought for a moment; his main body directly turned into Dream Phosphor and merged into the Dream Book.
And the Dream Angel in the battlefield took the Dream Book from the void.
Sasriel saw the Dream Book, a brass-colored light appearing in his eyes, followed by a look of sudden realization, and he nodded gently.
The prophecy He had once made appeared on the chaotic, dark, and empty sea.
This is also the power of Above the Sequence.
He saw what would happen next, then used his final power to make a prophecy in the Chaos Sea, and let it become Reality.
"Then let you be the one to give me the final blow," the Creator, who was about to fall, said, and everyone fell silent.
"Good!" The Dream Angel's Dream Book flipped to the fifth page, and the power of Above the Sequence acted upon the Dream Book, causing the various patterns on it to gradually become clear, converging into a strange rune that was half-illusory and half-real.
The appearance of this rune caused the entire Dream Book to tremble violently, and the Dream Sea manifested naturally, like a real ocean washing over the entire world.
The Real World, the Spirit World, the Astral World, and even the Starry Sky all stirred up a wave that was both illusory and real.
