Chapter 278 God's Weakness: The Child Cannot Kill the Mother
While searching for a way to open the pure white space, Vifiya and the others were also discussing other matters related to the godslaying.
There was no need for Vifiya to say anything more. Isidore and the other three were extremely determined. They were determined to go in and would not let her face it alone.
What a joke, this had nothing to do with her, she was forced to be the center, as a native of the world, they had no reason to hide behind her.
Even Arnold, who lacked any magic, offered a reason that Vefia couldn't refute: "Putting aside the fact that I'm your knight, I'm also part of the world. I want Bailey to continue living under this blue sky."
In fact, he didn't have to follow her to the pure white space. In the end, Vifiya didn't say what she was thinking.
Now that the affairs of God could be spoken without concealment, Vifiya also specifically explained to Kaharun the reason why Raylord possessed the disgusting magic ball.
She had mentioned this matter to him before, but now she explained it in more detail. However, she only said that Lei Luode believed that they knew each other in their previous life, and she still did not reveal her rebirth.
This is just a small episode, after all, there are more important things.
How can one be ignorant of God when one is God’s enemy?
After obtaining Valega's consent, Vifiya reintroduced Him to Osha and the others.
He still chose not to reveal himself, nor did he care about their surprise. He went straight to the point: "If it was Thesmera in her prime, you wouldn't have any chance of winning."
Faint points of light in the air intertwined into the familiar Saka words: "Except for Miss Vefiya, you, as His children, cannot kill the Mother."
He is the being in the world who knows Thesmera best. They used to talk in depth day and night, and they had never been separated before the war broke out between humans and alien races.
"The source of all magic in the world lies in God."
In other words, Thesmera knows most of the magic they know, and she also knows the ones they don't know.
"Thesmera is different from the creatures he created. He has no heart, and his body is not flesh and blood as you understand it."
"The weakness of His true nature."
Hidden in the air, Valega paused imperceptibly, his emotions more complex than ever before.
He never imagined that one day he would become an enemy of Thesmera, that one day he would use the weakness that He had personally told Him.
"His weakness lies in the hexagram."
If He were still Bhumalinda, if He still had a human form, His eyes would be filled with helplessness and sadness.
Unfortunately, as an eye, Valega's sun and moon pupils do not show any emotions.
Likewise, Thesmera had always been omnipotent before Him. There had never been anything He couldn't solve. Having come this far, how could Valega not understand...
It is because we understand Him that we can see more clearly what His friends want Him to do.
The room was completely silent. Vifiya and the others had always known the difficulty of killing a god. Just from hearing what Valega had said, they had sensed the difficulty.
"We can hurt Him, right?" Arnold broke the silence, deliberately avoiding the reason why Vifiya came here.
As things have developed to this point, as vested interests, they have no right to blame Him. As friends of Vifiya, things have already happened, and they sometimes don't know how to face her.
"Yes, you can hurt Him, but you can't kill Him."
There is only one person in the world who can kill Him.
This is the real reason why He brought a soul named Jiang Suian to another world.
Vifiya and the others are not stupid. The fact that Valega can easily point out God's weakness shows that God's weakness is not so easy to be broken.
"I can sense that His power has weakened a lot compared to before. This is an advantage."
"Another advantage is the world rules." Vifiya interjected.
"right."
"As for the pure white space, it's actually just an ordinary space, there's nothing different about it."
Compared to Valega, who loves flowers and plants and transforms her home into her favorite appearance every day, Thesmera's home is always snow-white.
"That's what you say, but there's a difference." [Vifiya] raised her eyes, leaned back, and tapped the table lightly with her fingertips.
Her words instantly attracted the attention of the others who were in deep thought, and they also recognized from her eyes that she was not the Vifiya they were familiar with.
Vifiya spoke bluntly, "The pure white space is God's abode. It's a space conjured up by God. Essentially, it's God's home."
"In a pure white space, all the naked eye can see is white, with no visible edges. From the perspective of the human eye, it is very easy to be dazzled."
After the words fell, Kaharun and the others looked puzzled.
Osa opened her mouth and asked, "Have you been there?"
[Vefiya] crossed her arms, her face showing a mixture of surprise and disgust towards them: "Are you so stupid that you even need to ask me for the answer?"
Of course she had been there before, so she knew what the pure white space looked like.
If Jiang Suian hadn't asked her to come out and share some information, she wouldn't have talked to them.
The night in the Simpalai ruins came faster than anywhere else. When the last rays of sunset fell, Vifiya and the others once again ended their discussion on how to kill the gods and had a meal.
"Arnold, please stay for a moment." Before standing up to go back to their rooms after finishing their meal, Vifia called her knight.
Osa and the others nodded to each other and left.
In the house, only Vifiya and Arnold were left, the latter patiently waiting for his master's instructions.
"Please sit down." She said and turned to look for the suitcase in the corner.
Arnold sat down and looked over, only seeing her back as she rummaged through something.
Not long after, Vifia placed a piece of parchment and a letter in front of him.
The moment he saw the contents of the paper clearly, he stood up suddenly. His usually calm eyes faltered for a moment, and he could barely speak: "Lady Vifiya?"
The girl sat down opposite him and held out her hand to signal him to sit down too, saying there was no need to rush.
Arnold caught his breath and sat back in his chair.
"I mean, you can leave at any time," she said, her eyes falling on the parchment. "I think your loyalty doesn't need a piece of paper to prove it."
She believed in his loyalty, which he had proven many times.
Something else...
"Letter of recommendation. I thought about it and wrote you one. It's from the Marquis of Casely. It will be very useful no matter what you want to do."
Arnold didn't speak for a moment, he didn't know how to start.
The parchment on the table was a loyalty contract he had drafted after agreeing to become her knight and doing the first thing for her.
He had already written his name on it, but she had never written her name on it.
After seeing Arnold off, Vifiya turned back to the house.
The other soul in the same body did not comment on her preparing a way out for her subordinates. He was loyal to Jiang Suian, not her. [Vifiya] knew this and never intended to let Jiang Suian's confidants be loyal to her.
"Jiang Suian, you have something to ask me, right?" She mentioned something else and believed that the other party understood what she meant.
The girl paused, then continued walking forward: "Yeah."
Vifiya sat on the edge of the bed, looking toward the window not far away. The stars outside the window were faintly twinkling.
"Your body..."
"Oh, I thought it was a big deal." [Vifiya] interrupted her and said nonchalantly, "It's nothing, Jiang Suian, it's just a body."
It’s different, Vifiya thought. She had done many things that hurt Vifiya’s body before, but it was still different.
Because she knew that she would come back, and [Vefiya]'s body would be restored to its original state. Whenever death came again, she would occasionally forget that she was not [Vefiya].
This time is different. Vifiya still has some hope in her heart. Maybe this will really be the last time.
[Vifiya] knew what the girl was hesitating about, and it was undeniable that she enjoyed Jiang Suian's concern and care for her.
"Jiang Suian~ didn't I tell you? Be brave~" She was in a good mood, with a slightly upturned tone, "This time, we'll go together~"
[Vifiya] likes the word "together" very much. She has missed a lot of "together" with Jiang Suian, so no matter whether the next one will be the end or a new beginning, she hopes to face it with Jiang Suian.
How could Vifiya not understand what she meant? The girl seemed to have thought of something and her eyebrows curved: "Okay."
Just like the first to third lives, together.
The breeze came uninvited and sneaked in through the window. A familiar figure appeared in her sight outside the window. Vifiya thought for a while and decided to go out.
Fei Yi's long boots stepped on the soft mud and sand. She turned around and saw that it was her. Her eyes did not change and she continued to look up at the sky.
Vifiya stood beside her, raised her eyes, and saw the stars twinkling in the deep blue night sky.
"I want to ask Him for an answer." Fei Yi said softly.
She joined the Broken Crown Covenant from the beginning to the end just to get an answer.
After years of training, Fei Yi has become a qualified leader. However, when facing an old friend, an old friend who may understand her, she hesitates rarely.
The old friend's appearance had changed and was no longer the same as she remembered, but the fact that she could recognize her showed that the old friend had not changed much from before.
"They say Eddie was a playmate I created by exhausting my magic power. Eddie died because the world and the goddess wouldn't allow him to exist." Her words were like the calm after a violent roll of heavy rain.
Vifiya looked at Fei Yi. Even though she had guessed where Eddie was going, she didn't expect things to be so complicated.
If it weren't for the goddess' need for her, Eddie's ending might have been hers.
No, she's already died.
"He will tell you." Weifeiya said. She did not comfort Fei Yi. After many years, she thought Fei Yi no longer needed comfort.
The two of them stopped talking and looked at the starry sky quietly, just like a long time ago when a little girl named Fei Yi would sneak into her new friend's dormitory with her playmates.
At that time, they were under the stars on St. Fagus Island, quietly conversing about topics that the administrators did not allow them to discuss.
"Fine."
Fei Yi's calm voice attracted Weifeiya, and she said, "Live."
She turned and left, leaving the girl standing there alone, as if she had come to where the girl could see her tonight just to say this.
It was not until her figure gradually faded away that Vifiya withdrew her gaze, took a step forward, and as if she had thought of something, she changed the direction of her toes.
She stopped in front of a lighted house and knocked gently on the door.
The wooden door moved back as she moved, leaving a gap large enough for her to see inside the house.
It was quiet inside. She knocked again, but no one responded. She frowned and put her hand on the slightly cold door. After a moment's thought, she pushed the door open.
The house was simply furnished, and she looked around and quickly found the person she was looking for.
Isidore sat on the ground along the wall, his eyes closed, as if he was asleep.
Weifeiya walked in and closed the door lightly. She originally wanted to take advantage of her free time to talk to him about the past.
She picked up his quilt and turned her head. His brows were furrowed and his face looked extremely uncomfortable.
She put down what she was holding, walked over a few steps, and bent down: "Isidore."
He didn't respond.
"Isidore?"
"Isidore?"
His face gradually turned pale.
Vifia was startled. She reached out and shook his arm, her voice getting louder: "Isidore."
She squatted down, but before she could check, she raised her eyes and stared at her with silver pupils.
She put her hand down and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"I don't know." Isidore answered honestly. He didn't remember what he was about to do. He seemed to have taken out something.
Ah, it doesn't matter.
He looked at the girl in front of him. He had thought about entering the pure white space alone, but since it concerned her wishes, he couldn't make the decision alone.
His eyes were soft, reflecting Vifiya's figure: "You are looking for me, is there something you want to do?"

The man with white hair leaned against a maple tree, and the slight rustling sound of the wind blowing through the leaves fell into his ears.
Xander held the exquisite lyre in his hands, and for the first time he did not pick up his favorite bardic art form anytime and anywhere.
The bard's strings will tell stories from the years, stories that have been twisted, stories that have been misunderstood, stories that have been buried...
No one is more suitable to be a bard than him, which is why he loves to play the role of a bard.
Even if the world ends tomorrow, the bard's strings no longer pluck, and the story no longer moves forward, at least today still exists.
“Escape, escape, escape the future, blind the eyes of the past, and arrive at a present that even God cannot foresee.”
