Chapter 1113: 17.40 Fourth Violet Star - The World"s Request and Megan Sh.e.l.ley"s Thoughts.
The G.o.d of Void said, {Speaketh. What is"t yond thee needeth?}
Translation: [Speak. What is it that you need?]
The Heavenly Laws immediately wished to retract his statement when the Evil G.o.d asked it directly. He is scared by the Ultimate Evil G.o.d, who can destroy anything he feels like, despite the fact that he is the Heavenly Laws of this universe. The strength disparity is too great. Also, he was no longer able to limit much of this Venerable Lord in his own realm for whatever reason. He was granted the same power over all universes as the G.o.d of Destruction.
The interruption of his rendezvous with his wife had already irritated the G.o.d of Void. He"s a little irritated that the being who stopped their fun won"t even respond to his question.
{Has"t thee gone deaf? Is this deity"s questioneth something so hard to answ"r? Thee wanteth holp yet not pray to pardon the things prop"rly. Absurd!}
Translation: [Have you gone deaf? Is this Deity"s question something so hard to answer? You want help yet do not explain the things properly. Absurd!]
Everyone can sense the Grand Marshal"s abrupt change in att.i.tude. Despite the fact that they were unable to understand anything he had said, they were unable to ignore the atmosphere in the vicinity, which was growing thicker as a result of his mood. The faint aura the Grand Marshal is producing on his own is somewhat suffocating, especially for mortals like the Second Prince and the others.
He continued speaking without pausing because the Divine Laws were so terrified. They are worried that this brooding Evil G.o.d will whimperingly destroy their world. If he sincerely feels like stopping this Venerable Lord, it would be nearly hard for him to do it despite the Heavenly Rules of this planet.
{Aye! Th"re is anoth"r Ven"rable L"rd yond hadst ent"r"d this dram one"s w"rld. But that gent isn"t on anyone"s side and hadst at each moment keepeth himself enshielf. Until the Ven"rable L"rds hath appeared on this planet, that gent is eke the one who is"t causeth some of the z"rgs to hind"r"d the journey of the G.o.d of void on thy way h"re.}
Translation: [Yes! There is another Venerable Lord that has entered this little one"s world. But he isn"t on anyone"s side and has always kept himself hidden. Until the Venerable Lords appeared on this planet, he was also the one who caused some of the zergs to hinder the journey of the G.o.d of Void on your way here.]
The Heavenly Laws continue to speak, {This Ven"rable L"rd seemeth to knoweth the G.o.d of Void but this dram one doesn"t knoweth if "t be true that gent is an foe "r not. I wouldst liketh the Ven"rable L"rds to prithee asketh this Ven"rable L"rd wherefore that gent cameth in this w"rld. Is that gent h"re to causeth destruction "r not?}
Translation: [This Venerable Lord seems to know the G.o.d of Void but this little one doesn"t know if he is an enemy or not. I would like the Venerable Lords to please ask this Venerable Lord why he came into this world. Is he here to cause Destruction or not?]
As soon as the Heavenly Laws finished speaking, the G.o.d of Void saw a particular man"s image in his mind. But he had a hunch that this man was the reason why, in contrast to Ca.s.sius Ambrosia from before, his wife"s incarnation had no memories of his original self.
It was the individual who went by the name Chaos.
The Grand Marshal said, {V"ry well, I shall keepeth these w"rds in mind. I shalt maketh a moveth at which hour this sir hath appeared as p"r thy requesteth. In exchange, I did want our sub"rdinates restrictions to beest gone. An equal exchange is a wilt. This deity hadst nay connection to this w"rld aft"r all.}
Translation: [Very well, I will keep these words in mind. I shall make a move when this man appears as per your request. In exchange, I wanted my wife and my subordinates" restrictions to be gone. An equal exchange is a must. This Deity had no connection to this world after all.]
The Heavenly Laws immediately approved as he removed the restriction of ident.i.ty and strength on Dean Frey von Gregory and Adjutant Kir von Giselle. Now they don"t have to worry about the Heavenly Tribulation falling on them for using their real abilities as G.o.ds.
Before the Heavenly Laws took its leave it said, {The exchange hadst been sealeth. I shalt leaveth the rest to the G.o.d of Void.}
Translation: [The exchange had been sealed. I shall leave the rest to the G.o.d of Void.]
The world"s voice finally goes away, and everything is back to as it was. n.o.body who didn"t speak Ancient G.o.d"s Language could comprehend anything that was being said. The Grand Marshal, Yara von Chrysalis, Dean Frey von Gregory, and Adjutant Kir von Giselle were the only members of the party to fully comprehend everything, including the two Systems. The only sound the other people can hear is nonsense spoken in their ears.
The Grand Marshal observes Yara von Chrysalis with a drowsy face when he turns around. He appeared to have had enough of playing and wanted to take a break, or perhaps the Divine Laws" teachings had made him bored as he waited for his friend to finish talking.
Unsummoning Juedi, Yara von yawned wildly while her eyes were partially closed. When the Grand Marshal saw him in this position, he decided to end the fight and unsummoned Shenyuan so that he could free his hand and carry his wife. Yara von Chrysalis lets himself get taken away, acting as though he"s accustomed to the Grand Marshal spoiling him and even rests his head close to the man"s chest to listen to his heartbeat as a lullaby.
Before the Grand Marshal returned to the Headquarters, where the others were waiting, he held Yara von Chrysalis on his arm like a princess. The damaged woodland outside the structure began to reconfigure itself as others watched the Grand Marshal behave coldly toward them as usual. New trees were planted to replace any that were broken. Once more, there were many trees in the bald area. The environment was returned to its previous condition as if the combat had never taken place.
The Grand Marshal said to General Nimbus before leaving the room, "We wouldn"t leave until Yara wishes to do so. Also, I had no intention of being involved in your affairs. If you want to see him then wait for him to wake up. He is a bit tired."
"Okay then. Rest well. The conversation can continue when Xiao Ya is awake."
As he prevented his Grandnephew t.i.tus from removing Yara von Chrysalis from the Grand Marshal"s arms, General Nimbus von Gretel stated. If he allowed his dumb grandnephew to cause trouble, he would probably get physically a.s.saulted.
The Grand Marshal stares at General Nimbus while ignoring the seething appearance of t.i.tus von Chrysalis, whose mouth is covered by the latter. Even though this man is technically a member of his wife"s family, unless his wife is awake and left his side then he can only stay where he is.
"Kir, Frey, help in whatever they need. For this matter, I shall report it to the Emperor myself. The rest will be up to you."
With Yara von Chrysalis asleep in his arms, the Grand Marshal departed. Until they had completely left the room, everyone was solemnly gazing at their retreating back. Silvan von Rosegard appears to have something to say to them, but he holds back due to the stark contrast in their stature and power. The second prince next to him grabbed his outstretched hand, which he could only lower.
Prince Christopher Klein von Imperlian said, "We can thank them when they come to report to the Imperial Father. I will accompany you at that time."
"I want to go back home first." Silvan von Rosegard said.
The Second Prince smiled and said, "After giving you a full body check-up back to the Main Star I will go with you to meet your family."
He hugged the second prince, "Thank you, Chris, and also sorry for everything." Silvan von Rosegard accepted this man once again in this life. Because he learned that he wasn"t truly abandoned but was protected in the wrong way leaving too many misunderstandings between the two of them.
"Don"t apologize. This matter wasn"t completely your fault. Now that the foreign thing on you has disappeared, there is no better news than this." The Second Prince hugged back.
The nearby grownups decide to let the young lovers alone for a while after noticing that they are getting closer than previously. The students and t.i.tus von Chrysalis waited in the living room while the grownups talked in the corner. There are four of them waiting for the grownups to finish speaking; t.i.tus von Chrysalis struck up a conversation with them because he was chatty.
t.i.tus von Chrysalis said, "There are no traces of that thing on you anymore. You should be glad that it was removed before things went beyond your control. That is a variable that is considered even more dangerous than the Zergs. You shouldn"t have signed a contract with it. You are quite lucky that you didn"t end up killing your lover."
"That thing is dangerous. According to the memories the original Megan Sh.e.l.ley had left in this body, almost all of the actions he made in your previous life were because of that system. If he fails to do the mission his whole body including his soul would be electrified. Though his envy towards your life is real." Zane Lin said.
Silvan von Rosegard and the Second Prince were a little taken aback. They had no idea that the person who had taken Megan Sh.e.l.ley"s body in this time period still had her original owner"s memories.
"You saw the memories of that body?" Asked the Second Prince.
Silvan von Rosegard asked with hesitation imprinted on his face. It took a pot of courage for him to ask the next question but he still wanted to know the truth.
"Did Meg do everything against his will? Did he truly want me dead?"
The second son of the Rosegard Clan wished with all his heart that his cousin, whom he treated in the same manner as his younger brother, had been forced against his will to partic.i.p.ate in that system in the past. He didn"t want to think that Megan Sh.e.l.ley really wanted to hurt him because, after all, they were family.
Zane Lin put the cup of coffee he was currently drinking down and looked at Silvan von Rosegard"s facial expressions in response to this query. t.i.tus von Chrysalis, who was sitting next to him, was calmly listening to their chat; it appeared that he found it to be quite amusing.
Zane Lin said, "The truth might be more painful than you expected. Are you sure you still wanted to know?"
After some hesitation, Silvan von Rosegard finally responded to the query. He didn"t summon the bravery to find out the truth until a warm hand was placed on him and he saw Christopher Klein von Imperlian smiling at him.
"Yes, please." His voice was shaking a bit but Silvan was determined to know the truth.
Zane Lin decided to tell him the truth. "The answer to your two questions is a No and a Yes. What he did before wasn"t all against his will. Bullying you gives him the pleasure of being above anyone and he was secretly in love with your fiance. He wanted him for himself. So he welcomingly signed the contract with that thing."
"...I see..." Silvan von Rosegard almost couldn"t hold back his tears, making the corner of his eyes bloodshot red.
"But I can say one thing... Megan Sh.e.l.ley never wanted to harm your family, cause your brother to be executed, and... he never wanted you to die. He only envies you but he never hated you. What he hated was the privilege you have in life. He wanted the same thing but was born into an ordinary family. He is quite vain after all." Zane Lin explained.
Silvan von Rosegard was startled and looked at Zane Lin with disbelief yet happiness. "He didn"t want to kill me then... Then the one who pushed me off the cliff that time is..."
"The system. He must have controlled his body like how he did to you before."
The second prince claimed to still be able to remember the bizarre scene in which Silvan was controlled by the evil system and killed his servants. Silvan von Rosegard was mute in the face of such truth. It makes sense that he would have noticed his cousin"s twisted expression as he fell down the cliff. a complex manifestation of suffering, elation, insanity, and guilt. He was struggling with the same issue as his brother was, trying to stop the system from murdering him. However, Silvan is still pushed down the cliff since Megan Sh.e.l.ley"s willpower isn"t as powerful as Silvan"s.
Zane Lin said, "After killing you Megan Sh.e.l.ley has gone insane. He wanted to find someone to kill him. So he went to find the Second Prince and got killed as he wanted."
