Chapter 1244 The Savior Never Gives Up
"...No wonder the boss let me participate in the ceremony of the Silver Crown Dragon defeating the Supreme Heaven in my dream."
Aiwass murmured, his eyes gradually becoming clearer: "Is He also worried that I haven't sealed my memory as agreed..."
He stared at the "Sun" card in his hand, and more and more memories flooded into his mind.
The former Mian Tiansi was split into two halves, and the part that was supposed to be discarded became the high and mighty Pillar God;
And the three meaningful paintings from the promotion ceremony he and Aleister participated in—
Every feast must come to an end. Drink the blood of fools and devour the flesh of the feasters until the feast is complete and the guests have left. Then, the feast host will be perfected again, ascending to the position of celestial minister. The feast they long for will eventually be held again, perhaps in dreams, perhaps in the future.
Rebellion is the first sharp sword of the helpless, and curse will be the last. History will repeat itself, once, twice, three times... No one can escape the curse of the eternal cycle. He who is king will die by the sword, and he who kills with the sword will become king. This may be a paradox, but it may also be a cycle. Who knows? Not to mention the living, even the gods are nothing but blood-thirsty beasts, feasting on each other...
The sun will eventually set, and destiny will eventually return. Every encounter will eventually lead to a separation, but even after separation, we can meet again. Under the blazing sun, freedom is impossible. But if the starlight is bright enough, perhaps it can split the sky and earth before dawn. Then, you will know where the new road leads.
If the words of these three paintings are connected together, they are prophecies of the present, past and future!
The relationship between Aiwass and Aleister is like that between the Fool and the Feaster. In the end, Aiwass ascended to a higher position by devouring Aleister's Serpent Tail.
And the "banquet they long for" will eventually be held again, perhaps in the dream world, or perhaps in the future - this is referring to the next devouring of Huan Tiansi and Aiwass.
History repeats itself, referring to the reincarnation abilities of the Samsara God and Amber. The Eternal Ring refers to the Samsara God. The sayings "He who is king must die by the sword, and he who kills with the sword must become king" and "the gods eat one another" refer to the succession of Pillar Gods, as well as Samsara God's devouring of Snake Tail and his subsequent devouring by Aiwass.
The sun sets and rises again. This also refers to reincarnation... The sun represents destiny, while the stars represent mortals. Dawn refers to the period before reincarnation, and also to the opening up of the future before the end of the world.
Aiwass's memories of his previous life gradually became clearer.
In his memory, his roommate's blurry face gradually became clear, and his name gradually emerged in his mind.
The mystical knowledge that he was familiar with in his previous life gradually flowed into his mind.
In his previous life, Ai Shiping was already good at these miscellaneous studies, just like Huan Tiansi was also good at all of them.
These skills are possible because Huan Tiansi had already established this knowledge in the past, and the names of the people around Aiwass now more or less have a sense of déjà vu, and it is precisely because of the fate shaped by Huan Tiansi - because Ai Shiping is not good at naming, just like Aiwass.
He gradually recalled the names of his family members and the details of his arrival in this world.
Although there were still some memories he hadn't yet acquired... such as Amber and Lucifer, Aiwas had gradually mastered the rest of the memories held by Huan Tiansi, returning to a state of being on par with him.
When Ai Shiping first came into this world, he had no idea what this chaotic world was.
Or perhaps... it is because Ai Shiping has the future of this world in his subconscious that this world has gradually become what he is familiar with.
It's not that he traveled to a world with the same background as the game from the very beginning, but a "world that might become like this", which gradually became like this under Ai Shiping's artificial intervention!
As early as when he became the Heavenly Master of Samsara, the Lord of Scales and Feathers found Ai Shiping.
"You were summoned to this world by me, boy."
The Lord of Scales and Feathers asked directly, "In the future, this world will face inevitable destruction—and you are the only variable. Because you alone do not belong to the 'future.'"
"You can leave before then. If you want, I'll let you return to your previous world. Don't worry, not the state of being taken away by a dump truck... but before that. Even before that."
"...You've already told me this, how can I just turn a blind eye and say nothing?"
At that time, Ai Shiping said helplessly but confidently: "What's more... you mean, I have a chance of winning, right?
"As long as there's a chance of winning, I want to try. If it doesn't work once, I'll try ten times. If it doesn't work ten times, I'll try a hundred times.
"—After millions of reincarnations, there will always be one that can overcome it. The power called 'reload' is invincible!
"I'm not going back! I don't want a mediocre life that won't be remembered by anyone. I'd rather die heroically than live a life of mediocrity!"
That clear voice was very similar to Aiwass's.
But at that time, Ai Shiping didn't know what he was going to face.
Now Aiwas finally remembered...what Huantiansi was going to do.
The core reason why "Nothingness" cannot be defeated is not because of how powerful it is, but because it is too cautious.
He has no entity, no carrier. No matter who you are, you cannot kill something that does not exist, unless... you "assign" it a value, "define" it.
And Huan Tiansi, who had lost his lover and his ideals, was deserted by his friends and family and targeted by everyone, whose nine reincarnations had come to nothing, and who had been tortured by nothingness for a hundred thousand years...
When he loses everything, all his efforts so far become meaningless, all the memories worth cherishing are melted and "stolen", and the loved one is completely dead... that kind of unsuppressible emptiness will expand infinitely.
Not infinite light, but infinite nothingness.
——That is the most suitable carrier for the arrival of the "Pillar God of Nothingness".
No matter what, Whisper of the Void will never miss this opportunity.
Needless to say, Whisper of the Void had already launched several tentative attacks on Aiwass and thought it had already tested Aiwass's strength.
At that time, the Void will hatch from the body of Huan Tiansi, who was defeated by Aiwass... and devour Aiwass. In this way, he will become an unprecedentedly powerful Dusk Race.
But the same...
Opportunities also mean flaws.
At that moment, the Nothingness will be weaker than ever before.
The almighty god finally took on a physical form, his health bar lit up, and he descended into the hands of an enemy that Aiwass had just defeated...
"……I see."
Aiwass murmured, feeling shocked and comforted.
——The former savior never gave up.
——The heroes of the past never fall.
——In the past, I was never ready to escape.
He deceives the world in order to deceive nothingness, and even deceives himself for the sake of deceiving nothingness.
In order to shape the path of hope without arousing the vigilance of nothingness, one is constantly tortured by nothingness. In order to prevent the infection of nothingness from spreading, one guards knowledge and secrets that may be contaminated.
Did the Shepherd really not want to be devoured by the Ring Heavenly Lord, so he gave his body to the Fallen Angel Lord?
The art of cutting off the tail was originally used by Huan Tiansi to resist the erosion of nothingness, and he used this method to continuously "filter" and "distill" his important memories.
Then why would the shepherd be unwilling to merge with Huantiansi?
Unless there is another possibility——
——The mission of a shepherd is not to return to the original body. In this way, this part of the memory will not be known by nothingness.
At that moment, the cycle of reincarnation had not yet come to an end.
There are still possibilities in the future, so Huan Tiansi cannot despair - and no one can defeat Huan Tiansi and make his plan completely fail.
Therefore, nothingness will not completely infect Huan Tiansi's mind, and it is impossible for it to descend into Huan Tiansi's body.
“—Not everyone has to reach the end.”
Aiwass stared at the card, and non-existent memories appeared in his mind.
Those are the words the pastor said to his followers before he died.
“Some people are destined never to reach the end. It’s like a long and protracted journey… The generations in between have neither seen the scenery of the way there, nor are they destined to see the beauty of the destination. But their existence is still necessary.
"I am just such a traveler. I have no place to come from and no way back."
At that time, no one could understand the shepherd's words.
They all thought that the pastor was talking about their own loneliness, regrets and end.
No one knows what the shepherd is carrying.
At this moment, Aiwass, whose memory was constantly being replenished, suddenly thought of another thing -
The art of shepherding means transplanting a part of one's essence into another's body, so as to gain the other's favor.
This is also why the art of shepherding can use the opponent as a carrier to revive...
And there was no doubt about the Shepherd—He completely changed the Fallen Angel, even changing His appearance to be the same as Aiwass.
That's why the Fallen Angels were able to change Aiwass's mind through this connection. Similarly... a part of the Fallen Angels must have become a Shepherd, just like a Trojan horse program infiltrating a computer.
——That’s why Aiwass was able to perform the ritual to borrow power and the Sin Mark from the Fallen Angel, but he never discovered it!
Because it wasn't the Fallen Angels who answered Aiwass's prayer at the time, and it wasn't just luck that he wasn't discovered...
But it is the layout made by my past self.
From then on, the one who answered his prayers and helped Aiwass create the Sin Card was the Shepherd hiding in the body of the Fallen Angel!
Similarly, although the Fallen Angels accepted the greatest care from the Shepherd, they did not grasp the secret of Aiwass and the essence of the Ring Angels... This was because the Shepherd had already preserved his own memories at that time.
It was saved on this small card, and then the "Fire Dragon Burning the Warehouse" was performed through the Fallen Angels and White Punishment to make up for this part of the missing memory!
All this wonderful "fate" is to deceive nothingness...
To deceive this dusk species that has already fed on this world and is therefore almost synchronized with the world.
The information passed down by generation after generation of snake tails.
Reincarnation again and again, accumulating power.
This is a road of hope paved with death and perseverance.
——This is the real secret hidden in the "Shepherd's Secret Sutra".
Update completed! Please give me a monthly ticket!
This chapter is quite important, so I wrote it slowly. I have been writing it until now and have just finished it. I feel like I am in trouble again...
But it’s not a big problem, I will definitely have perfect attendance this month!
