Chapter Sixty-Four: On the Outside of the Script

Ernie looked at Ira with some surprise, not understanding how he made this connection, but she wasn't interested in asking. Instead, she said directly, "No outsiders are allowed to interfere with the Prime Material Plane... that's an unwritten rule, but you might not be able to get support."

"However, the law-abiding outsiders will avenge you."

Ernie added this.

"..."

"So that means... a bunch of clowns, completely useless?"

Yinla said this.

"Very insightful."

Ernie agreed with Illa's point of view.

"So, what is the reason I am considered 'Chaos'?"

After a brief moment of contemplation, Illa asked, looking at Ernie's composed expression, "Did the gods leave some kind of prophecy? But in the prophecy about the [calamity], Chaos and I shouldn't have appeared."

Ernie was puzzled by these words, but she decided to ignore the "calamity" that Vereesa and the others had mentioned before, and instead said, "No, we don't know more about the gods than you do. Our information comes from the stone tablet you found."

As Ernie said this, she looked directly into Ira's eyes and asked, "Although I'm now almost certain that you're not Chaos, there must be some connection between you and Chaos, right?"

Upon hearing Ernie's words, Yinla instantly thought of the snake-eyed woman who claimed to be "God" and "Yinla's cheat code" living in the World Tree...

"No contact."

But Yimra still gave the same answer.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Haha, is that so? Okay then..."

Ernie, who had been staring at Ira for a long time, smiled, but her smile was unexpectedly sad. She looked very confused and said, "I know... but actually I don't care that much anymore."

"So, if you're not chaos... that's fine too."
