"Operator, hello. If you are hearing this broadcast, it means the erosion has already begun, and we have started to be forgotten by the world."
"If the erosion goes too deep and c...
Chapter 283 The Final Exit
27 seconds later.
The torrential rain continued, and crimson, fluffy lightning flickered across the dome, as if the end of the world had arrived.
Is the real world outside fun?
"Don't tell me you haven't seen it, after all, you're a master beyond the fourth wall."
“I think… perhaps there’s some misunderstanding between us, which is why you can talk such nonsense to my host.”
659 laughed, his eyes filled with a chilling aura that ran deep into his bones.
Looking into those pupils, you'll feel like you're looking in a mirror.
Sergio knew that this sudden change was caused by the other party, and it was naturally different from the people he had met before. It had come to interrogate him, or... simply wanted to find a reason to kill him.
"Is this your solution?"
"In fact, within that web of the multiverse, you have killed me tens of millions of times."
"But I'm still alive today, and I escaped."
"659, how many of your cores have you recovered this time? After all this time, you still haven't collected them all? Why is that?"
"Even if all the beings in this entire cosmic web who have received your favor have spent their entire lives grafted onto you, are they still not numerous enough? How ironic."
"If I were you, I would be obsessed with envying them—because these people got what they wanted."
"And you... a character who claims to be able to escape the cage of the book, a pathetic fiction. How many times will you reincarnate, how long will it take you to absorb these remnants before you can fulfill that insignificant wish?"
Sergio knew the obscured truth: everything was predetermined from the very beginning of the story. From the moment he entered the causal space after his death, he saw the end for everyone: every life cursed by the forbidden object, every human being shrouded in unwarranted rage—not one could survive, but all died with regret, without exception.
Except for... He Yu.
"You're betting everything on him."
"Then I made myself a slave to the laws; all I did was modify all of that."
Sergio said indifferently.
Upon hearing this, 659 withdrew his smile and fell into a long silence.
He pondered, how long into the future, when will He Yu be able to grow up and become less weak? Probably a very, very long time. This bastard will use his authority to encounter increasingly difficult opponents, and it will be a fierce battle.
For example, Sergio, who wields the will of the universe.
If this idiot wanted to kill He Yu, he thought, that would be too easy. This poor host was just an experimental subject he discovered when he was bored. But now was not the time.
Although it was bound to happen sooner or later, he had promised to give this bastard an unprecedented feast, right there on the second fluctuation layer. Please... no one else should come and spoil the mood; he absolutely adores this host.
"It seems you've seen too much of the truth."
"You really didn't lie to me. The butterfly effect might not even be enough for you now. If you were exposed to more of the truth... I'm afraid even I wouldn't be able to erase you."
"But you're fucking amazing, bro, you didn't choose to run away?"
"Either you have a way out, or... you already read in that damn book of fate that you are destined to die today."
"I must say, you've already developed a cruel side."
659 was in no hurry to act, because ever since he destroyed the key to destiny, no one in the entire multiverse has been able to save Sergio.
As if he had discovered something bizarre, Sergio took a breath and then leaned back on the sofa as if resigned to his fate.
He felt his pocket; the half-empty bottle of tranquilizers was still inside. Without a second thought, he poured it all out and put it in his mouth.
“You’re absolutely right. In the outline of this entire book, you represent… the author’s best will, far surpassing all observable universes. But there’s one thing you’ve forgotten: at the last 27-second mark, all parallel worlds began to merge, and Eoubs’ era will be transformed, whether you believe it or not.”
"I'm just a piece of trash who should have died long ago."
"Even if they are given new abilities, they can only play a fleeting role in the story."
Facing his own demise, Sergio spoke with utter calmness, saying that the records he had glimpsed... the contents recorded in the laws of destiny, had all become blank after being observed, and no one knew anything about them, not even 659.
"Please, at a time like this, I have absolutely no interest in you riddle makers."
"So let's go back to the beginning."
"You've revealed too much inside information."
"So it's only right that he/she died by my hand."
659 had said everything he needed to say; he just wanted to hear what this wise man, comparable to 832, would say on the verge of death.
Sergio shook his head, unmoved.
"Have you ever read the Bible, you monster who's a collection of all the horror stories?"
"If you forgive others their sins, your heavenly Father will also forgive you your sins; but if you do not forgive others their sins, your heavenly Father will not forgive you your sins either."
"My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor your ways my ways. As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts higher than your thoughts."
"Today I forgive your sins, for we also forgive all who are indebted to us."
