Chapter 801: Shared, [Birth], Authority?

~7 min read 1,345 words

Shared, 【Birth】, Authority?

"Then please forgive me for being blunt, great God of 【Birth】, I want to ask You about an existence."

"Who—"

"【Origin】!"

As soon as the words fell, a fishy wind rose in the void. That terrifying 【Divine Pillar】 actually whipped over directly, circling around Cheng Shi, who was covered in cold sweat, building a wall of 【Birth】 that was hard to look at directly.

Looking at the countless life templates pieced together, Cheng Shi always felt that this form was the "Grotesque Mother Tree" that 0221 and Zayin Ji'er wanted to create.

It seems Zayin Ji'er truly did a lot of research on 【Birth】.

But he couldn't care about Zayin Ji'er right now. Cheng Shi paid the price for his testing, but fortunately, his legs were only weak; the other party didn't seem to have any intention of acting directly, and wasn't even surprised that he knew the name of 【Origin】.

"Reason—"

Reason?

He didn't refuse him!

Cheng Shi's eyes lit up suddenly, thinking to himself that he had gambled correctly after all.

【Birth】 was indeed Buddhist-like toward 【Origin】; He could even tolerate a mortal talking about that "Creator" in front of Him!

This was good; this meant he might truly have a harvest today!

For a time, Cheng Shi's heart burned.

Of course, the real reason for coming here couldn't be said. Daring to gamble with his life didn't mean he truly wanted to die. Fortunately, Cheng Shi had a draft ready. He looked up with a serious face, becoming even more "devout":

"Great God of 【Birth】, I learned of some shocking matters from other places. Not only did I learn the divine name of 【*Him】, but I also learned that one of my patrons......"

Speaking of this, Cheng Shi paused.

He originally wanted to say that 【Chaos】 was moving away from 【Origin】, so he wanted to ask what kind of existence 【Origin】 was. After all, now that 【Chaos】 had abandoned chaos to play 【Order】, to a certain extent, this couldn't be considered a lie.

And the reason he chose to ask 【Birth】 was because both Afuluosi and Hu Xuan were expounding on the kindness and tolerance of their patron to him, which made him feel that this God of 【Birth】 who pitied the world might be able to bestow an answer upon him.

In this way, Cheng Shi could not only give a reasonable excuse, but also flatter these two allies a little—killing two birds with one stone.

But what he didn't expect was that just as he was about to say the name of 【Chaos】, Cheng Shi was forced to interrupt, and then uncontrollably said another divine name:

"·【Deception】!

One of my patrons, 【Deception】, is moving away from 【*Him】!

This makes me feel deeply terrified, so I came specially to seek an answer. I hope You, who pity the world and are tolerant and merciful, can bestow an answer upon me, allowing me to persuade my patron's words and deeds, making Him return to the right track."

As soon as the words fell, the 【Divine Pillar】 stopped, and Cheng Shi also stopped.

A drop of cold sweat flowed from his forehead, slid past his nose and corner of his mouth, and then dripped into his palm along his chin. The cold touch made Cheng Shi wake up suddenly. He immediately lowered his head, eyes wide with terror, and roared at Mouth Brother in his heart:

"Lips of Foolish Play! Whose side are you on!?"

"Can you make this kind of joke at a time like this!!"

"If you want to be a traitor, don't drag me into it. You've offered up the God of Fun; what do you want me to do? I am......"

*Eh, wait!? *

*Why would Mouth Brother bring up the God of Fun so unceremoniously? *

*It is ultimately the God of Fun's creation; it couldn't possibly openly pit its own patron. *

*But if it's not pitting, why would it...... *

*Hmm? *

*The God of Fun is here!? *

!!!

Cheng Shi's brows furrowed. He suddenly remembered the scene where Mouth Brother cooperated with the God of Fun to agree to 【Fate】 fusing with 【Time】 for him. This feeling was so similar that he instantly gave birth to a guess, which was:

*Has the God of Fun already arrived!? *

*Did He come to protect me, or is it that like me, He has taken a fancy to 【Birth】 as the same breakthrough point? *

Just as he thought of this, the 【Divine Pillar】 that connected the limbs suddenly pulled back and gave a loud whip to the void above Cheng Shi's head.

"Pa—"

"Hua la......"

The void shattered. Cheng Shi's head gradually revealed the nihility of the background color. And in that endless nihility, in the 【Laughter and Mockery】 flowing with five-colored, mottled, and psychedelic colors, a pair of starry eyes with corners tilted high were watching this scene with great interest, emitting a belly-laughing sound.

【Deception】!

He had indeed appeared here long ago.

Seeing his patron appear, Cheng Shi was not pleasantly surprised, but rather frightened. He shrank his head and played the ostrich.

He hadn't forgotten that his move of proactively seeking an audience with 【Birth】 actually had a bit of a mind to test the God of Fun. Being caught red-handed by his patron right now, he had already started brainstorming how to argue his way out of it later.

However, 【Deception】's sarcasm was far faster than the clown's thinking.

"Oh my, let me see which little liar is eating inside and out, having an audience with someone else's patron?

Oh? So it's the clown.

Why, clown, coming to have an audience with 【Birth】—could it be that you want to steal His authority to offer it to your patron, and then have a 'blasphemous' joy with your patron that the universe cannot tolerate?"

"......"

Cheng Shi's eyelids jumped wildly, sweating profusely.

"Not speaking is tacit consent." Those eyes pursued relentlessly.

Cheng Shi had no choice but to argue:

"·Yes!"

!!??

"Heh, Cheng Shi Cheng Shi, you are indeed honest.

But I have to remind you, humans and gods cannot share the authority of 【Birth】.

So don't dream, clown.

But I will tell your patron 【Fate】 about your thoughts.

Hee~

No wonder you are blaspheming Him at every moment; it turns out it's to squeeze His tolerance and test His bottom line, so that you can thoroughly reveal your wolfish ambition when He has nowhere to retreat.

I didn't expect it, your 'desire' is not small!"

"......"

*No??? *

*May I ask? *

*Patron Lord, are you and Mouth Brother performing a setup on me here!? *

*What kind of thing drags 【Fate】 into this? *

*When did I ever want to blaspheme 【Fate】? *

"......"

*Yes, I admit I have occasionally, accidentally, unintentionally blasphemed Him, a few times... but how did it become testing? I...... *

*Forget it, what's the point of arguing with the God of Fun? Is it useful? *

*Useless. *

Thus Cheng Shi fell silent and began to lie flat and let himself be mocked.

But in the gap where this one person and one god looked at each other in silence, the "Master of this Place," 【Birth】, suddenly spoke. As soon as He opened His mouth, the entire nihility completely returned to silence.

"Humans—and—gods—

Can—share—My—authority—"

"......"

"......"

This time even the God of Fun was stunned. He blinked and looked at that abstract 【Divine Pillar】, suddenly emitting a laughter of starry flashes and nihility colors.

"Hahahaha, interesting, too interesting.

I say, Boss, you are so cute, could it be that you want to laugh me to death and then inherit my authority?"

As soon as the words fell, 【Birth】's 【Divine Pillar】 whipped out again, whipping those eyes that were having so much fun away.

"......"

Looking at this scene, Cheng Shi felt that he wasn't having an audience with a god, but watching a divine circus.

Of course, he also had a guest role in this circus, and the role he played was that funniest circus clown.

I, Cheng Shi, the clown.

Renowned throughout the universe. ===== CHAPTER 802 =====
