Chapter 633 He raised his middle finger to fate
The moment the girl of misfortune opened her mouth, Xirik felt his head was in a mess.
Is there any unknown relationship between these two gods? Xirik felt like a fool. It turned out that these two had joined forces in advance. No wonder they could solve the problem without saying a word.
These two are in the same group.
Xirik really accepted his defeat sincerely. The comeback and the contest of eloquence were all fake.
The Grand Duke of Fraud had predicted this day many years ago, and had made arrangements in advance, waiting for this day, in order to win everything directly.
I lost, and I lost with all my heart.
Xirik couldn't help but said to Amber Xiu: "Awesome, whether as a mortal or as a god, I am far inferior to you, but can you tell me, when I first entered hell, what magic did you cast? Or was it just a cover, a trick to deceive me?"
Amber looked down at Xirik and said, "It's not magic. It's the legendary grace and destiny weaving that I realized when I was a mortal."
Xirik was stunned for a moment, and asked: "Weaving fate? You can even control the fate of the gods? So no matter what you do, they will retreat. Even if you do nothing, your fate is already determined? There is no such power in this world. You are not Io!"
The fate foreseen by the prophet is indeed unchangeable, but this ability cannot work on gods.
All prophecies to gods will become invalid, and the same goes for fate weaving. If you force a spell, the result will be spell failure and backlash.
Only Io can arrange the fate of even the gods.
Amber shook his head and said, "You are right. Only Io can control the fate of all gods. I can't do it, and the goddess of fate can't do it. This is a blasphemy against Io. I only weave my own destiny, and because of the curse of the lady of pain, I can only weave a painful future.
"The moment I saw you, I had a feeling that today would be the end of a story. So, I wove a painful future for myself, facing my greatest fears."
At this point, Amber looked up at the doomed girl and murmured to himself, "My greatest fear is fate itself."
Xirik now really wanted to shout "You lose if you speak."
But when Xirik looked at the Maiden of Doom, he found that the goddess had changed her appearance at some point.
The originally black hair turned platinum, and the pale skin turned into a soft white with a rosy glow. The clothes on her body also changed accordingly. The doom girl originally wore deer antlers like dead branches on her head and wore a black gauze long skirt, which was full of the breath of vicious curses and countless crying human faces.
And now, the goddess is wearing a gorgeous long dress as colorful as a rainbow, and the long whip in her hand has turned into a crystal-carved scepter.
Cyric had never seen such a goddess before, but the moment he saw her, he knew who she was - Tyche, the goddess of fate who was killed by a rose in the legend.
According to rumors, Tyche is always unpredictable. He likes to play pranks and novelty. He always spreads all kinds of luck and misfortune to the world, and gives blessings and curses entirely based on his mood.
After her accidental death, Tyche split into the goddess of luck and the girl of misfortune, becoming the twin gods of lawful good and chaotic evil.
But there is very little description of Tyche in the story, and this goddess had disappeared long before Cyric became a god.
How could a dead god reappear?
If this is Tyche, then where are Tymora and Ben Basha? The goddess of fate smiled brightly at Amber Xiu, as if he was the only one in her eyes.
Tikka said gratefully: "Thank you, it is you who helped me complete this gamble and won the final victory for me."
"gambling?"
Xirik felt even more confused and couldn't help asking, "What bet? Are you betting on me?"
Although he had lost everything, Xirik felt that he should get to the bottom of things before he died.
The goddess of fate was in a good mood and explained to Xirik: "No, this is a bet between me and Io. The priesthood of fate is too grand, and it is a blasphemy to the God of Gods. You also know that when He is angry, all gods will fall. When I took control of the priesthood of fate, I knew that I would die.
"I also knew how I would die, just like any mortal. I was once worried and terrified about my impending death. But I finally figured it out, so I made a bet with Io. I would die in a funny way as fate would have me die, but I would be resurrected, and then I could become the true goddess of fate.
"Although I didn't know who you were at that time, you didn't let me down, my most devout believer."
Seeing the smug look of the goddess of fate, Amber Xiu said angrily: "Bullshit fate."
The goddess of fate was not angry. Instead, she smiled secretly with her hands covering her mouth like a little girl who had successfully played a prank.
"You said you didn't want to, but you still chose to save me in the end."
However, after seeing the change in Amber's expression, the goddess of fate immediately put away her smile and said to Amber in a very formal manner: "Whether you like it or not, you finally guessed the truth and chose to help me complete this bet. Thank you, my gratitude is absolutely sincere."
The reason why the Goddess of Destiny was able to be resurrected was because Amber used the resurrection scroll given by the Lord of Dawn.
This resurrection scroll is signed by Io himself and has no restrictions.
As long as a name is written, even if it is not a real name, any living being can be resurrected according to the user's wishes, including gods.
Amber Xiu had fantasized about directly resurrecting the first generation magic goddess, and then his background would be as stable as it could be.
However, he himself did not expect that this resurrection scroll would eventually be used on the goddess of fate.
Now, facing the thanks from the goddess of fate, Amber Xiu just said indifferently: "If fate is destined, even if it's not me, someone else will come to save you."
"But it won't be so fast. I don't know how long I have to wait before I can return to this world again."
The goddess of fate did not deny Amber's statement. Fate cannot be changed, and everything destined will come true. At the moment of his fall, he was destined to be resurrected.
Even if the opponent is Io, He will definitely win this bet. This is the confidence of the goddess of fate.
"However, although I know that I will be resurrected, I don't know the specific details. I am sure that you are my most devout believer, but I know nothing about you. So, can you please satisfy my curiosity?"
The goddess of fate looked at Amber with expectation, like a girl asking for candy.
Xirik was also looking forward to it. He still didn't understand what happened. Amberxiu obviously didn't need to do anything to win everything. But not only did he use the most precious resurrection scroll, but he also seemed to have no respect for the goddess of fate. So why waste this treasure to resurrect her?
The resurrection scroll bestowed by Io is such a precious thing. Even though Xirik has been slapped to death, he can still be resurrected with this scroll and regain the power of the priesthood.
Well, as to whether he will lose his priesthood again after resurrection, that depends on him.
Anyway, Io is so powerful that the God of Gods can knock all gods down to the mortal world with just a thought and let them perform a battle royale.
If Io wanted to massacre the gods, the Lord of Knowledge, the Goddess of Magic and the like would all have to die, and they wouldn't even be able to resist.
But the goddess of fate made a bet with Io and won in the end.
Xirik looked at the goddess of fate and Ambershu repeatedly, and felt that these two gods were crazy, even crazier than when he was brainwashed by the "Xirik Scripture".
But why is this madness? Amber looked at the goddess in front of him who looked like a young girl, and for a moment he was a little emotional, wondering where the fate sweep kicks and uppercuts he had suffered over the years came from.
Today, perhaps there is an answer.
"You asked me why I wanted to revive you, so why not answer me a question first. Was everything I've been through these years planned by you? Was it really fate that destined me to endure all this?"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The goddess of fate shook her head and said, "No, maybe you don't believe it, but I have never written the fate for any mortal or god. The moment I became the goddess of fate, I knew that I would die for blaspheming Io. And I also understand that it is not me who controls fate, but the existence of fate that gave me birth.
"Can you understand what I'm saying?"
Amber was silent for a long time, and finally said: "Sure enough, it's just as I guessed. A crazy friend of mine told me that even though she had become a god and could ignore the heat of magma, why did she still assume that this thing could be used to commit suicide when she saw the magma?
"I had a feeling at the time, as if I had grasped a key point, but I didn't think it through at the time. It was not until today that I knew what I was thinking about.
"What I was thinking about was the birth of the concept. She was born as a mortal, and in her memory, magma is something that can kill people. You were born from fate, so you should know, like all prophecy mages, that fate cannot be violated.
"This is your essence, and it is also the fate of all of us prophecy mages. Just as the Lord of Dawn will not do anything that goes against his duties, you are the same. From the birth of the concept of fate, you are just a slave to fate.
“So, no one has ever arranged my life.
"The world is like this, and I just happened to be in it."
Amber Xiu's voice was calm, not at all like he was seeking the answer his whole life.
Even though the gods could maintain a calm appearance, this was Avernus, the kingdom of Ambersh. The emotions of the gods would be directly reflected in this world.
As long as Amber Xiu gets a little excited, this level of hell will be in turmoil.
The goddess of fate was also surprised and couldn't help asking: "It seems that you are not looking for the answer to this question."
"No, I have been troubled by this question for hundreds of years." Amber answered calmly: "I cried bitterly and cried to the heavens for this question. Every prophecy wizard will eventually turn against fate, seek to break free from the web of fate, gain true freedom, and then die tragically under the punishment of fate.
"But the moment I chose to revive you, I realized something. The moment I chose to resist, I actually got the freedom I wanted. Just like my choice to revive you is also my freedom."
The goddess of fate looked at Amberxiu in surprise, as if she was surprised by this statement.
The person in front of him seemed to be more than just a believer in fate. The goddess of fate heard insights from Amberxiu that she had never had before.
The goddess of fate blinked her eyes and said expectantly, "Why do you say that?"
Amber looked at the goddess of fate and explained as if teaching a student: "My love, Qiangwei, is a victim of the twisted system of the Ryan Empire, but she is not the only one. She chose to resist, while others chose to accept; there are so many lovers in the world who are forced to separate, and my friend Gareth chose to cut off his soul to be with his lover; there are countless mortals who have lost their parents, but only Aige chose to become a god and resurrect his father.
"And Harvey, my most accomplished student. While all the prophecy mages were rebelling against fate, Harvey chose to accept all arrangements of fate as always."
Amber smiled and stretched out his right hand, shooting out a ray of light that then refracted rainbow colors in the air.
"Destiny is this beam of light. We can't avoid it or change the direction of it throughout our lives, but when the light falls on us, our free will determines the light we can reflect. Whether we are decadent or sinking, rising up to resist or accepting our fate... everything comes from our own choices.
“We cannot control our destiny, but we can always control our thoughts.
"Destiny is just a natural disaster that is bound to come, just as mortals are destined to die the moment they are born. The established future cannot be changed, but how to use this life to welcome the destined death is everyone's freedom.
"So, I am no longer obsessed with whether my fate can be changed. Goddess, I am no longer your believer."
Amber Xiu's words made the goddess of fate look sad. She could sense that Amber Xiu was speaking from the heart. She had just resurrected herself from the long river of time, but now she said she no longer believed in fate.
As expected, the prophecy wizard has always been like this, a scumbag who seduces women and then abandons them.
The goddess of fate sighed and finally asked, "But you still haven't answered my question. Since you have figured it all out, why did you resurrect me? I am obviously no longer important to you, so why did you choose to resurrect me out of your free will?"
Amber Xiu showed a brilliant smile and said to the goddess of fate: "You asked me why I resurrected you. The answer is very simple, because there is something I have wanted to do for a long time."
Amberxiu walked up to the goddess of fate and slowly stretched out his right hand.
He raised his middle finger to fate.
At this moment, countless thunders appeared and disappeared in hell, and heavy rain poured down, as if it was going to submerge the entire Avernus.
But soon, the dark clouds dispersed, and a rainbow spanning the entire hell appeared in the dim sky.
