Chapter 240

"We've caught a big fish." In the depths of Lansemello's consciousness, Ereshkigal laughed, "What are you going to do?"

"Wait a minute, I'll ask someone in the chat room first." Lansemello looked at the man's exaggerated movements and decisively chose to ask for help from the Heroes. "I don't remember there being such a divine being among the gods who control time - even among the guys who have been deprived of their status as gods, there shouldn't be a similar existence."

"C.AG: Orion! Please ask me if there are any ancient space-time deities in your Olympian system - I mean, beings older than Chaos."

"R.N.: If they have something older than Chaos, then they must be able to trace it back to the founder of the fleet, right? And are you sure the history of our world can match this one?"

"C.AG: If it was the other world before, I'm not sure that the history of the two different worlds can correspond... But in this world now, I guarantee that it can correspond to our history."

"R.N.: Tsk, Gaia's consciousness - Orion! I'll ask someone about it - do you have anything else to add?"

"C.AG: Mainly a time deity, with a certain degree of space attributes; his personality is not the type that is the result of mechanical calculations like the Olympian gods, but more like a pure human; it is highly unlikely to exist in mythology or historical records... In addition, he is a bit like a sweet-talking demon."

"C.S.: How come this description... sounds like the Lucifer that is popularly known?"

"R.N.: I agree. Solomon, have you finished your research?"

"C.S.: There is no relevant information in the Chaldean database. If you have time when you come back this time, please make a replica of the Pseudo-Lepton Calculator, the Trident Hermes. Our Trismegistus does not have the functions of the Trident Hermes, so it is still difficult to find these contents."

"C.AG: OK, I'll do it when I get back."

"Ar·O: Pollux has found the answer."

"Ar·O: Chaos, the oldest mecha god, the super-giant mothership for interstellar travel, the celestial spherical space-time fortress, the Dyson sphere, the name of its creator has been recorded in Chaos' memory medium. His creator's name is Khronos, and it is said that he is the inventor of the leap technology used by the Olympus Mecha God Fleet in the universe..."

"C.AG: The attributes of time and space match up - but if it's a leap, the power of space is the main thing, right?"

"R.N.: I'll fill in the rest - this part is the information provided by Hades."

"R.N.: The original creator of Chaos was not just Chronos, but also his brother Cairos. Together, the two brothers created and perfected the jump technology that the Mecha God fleet would use. Chronos was responsible for the space part, while Cairos reduced the time error for the jump technology."

"R.N.: But before the Mechhanite fleet officially set sail, Cairos suddenly disappeared for unknown reasons. This is all the information we can find for you at the moment. Do you need us to find a way to help you?"

"C.AG: No, it's enough for you to find out this part of the information for me. I already have a way to deal with this guy. I will personally thank Hades for his help when I come back."

"I don't think I need to sync the information I got from the Grand Chat Room with you guys, right?" Lansemello asked Ereshkigal, Asclepius, and William. "You should have heard some of the information they got from me—"

"Well, that's enough for me to get the answer." William replied to Lansemero with a smile, "He is Cairos - am I right?"

"Since he is older than the gods, we should still show some respect on the surface - just like this." Lansemelo blinked slowly. The blessings left by the gods in the past helped her break through the shackles of time. "What an excellent performance, you are worthy of being Chronos's younger brother."

Maintain a certain respect - this does not mean that Lancermello will use honorifics to address him, nor does it mean that Lancermello will really respect him. It only means that Lancermello will not ignore Cailos, who is standing in the center of everyone's sight and performing exaggerated movements like a farce, just like he ignores ordinary members of the Law and Politics Department.

"Very good," William commented dryly, "She knows how to step on the enemy's minefield."

"...Because she often steps on her own people's minefields." Ereshkigal glanced at Asclepius who remained silent and added.

Lancermello has been blessed by many gods. Although she is often favored by those collectively referred to as the "underground gods" within the Throne of Heroes, in fact, the gods who have left blessings for her are not only these gods belonging to the underground.

Just like at this moment, the blessing that helped Lansemelo break through the time confinement of Cairos fell directly on her from the sky like the holy light of an angel - this was the blessing from Yahweh, "Let there be light."

Moreover, based on Solomon's status as the only living student, Yahweh would occasionally send blessings through Noah and others. These blessings were integrated and organized to a certain extent by Lansermelo, so "Let there be light" became a blessing that could affect the rules of the world.

——Because light is one of the many laws of the world that came into being when Yahweh created it, time is also within the scope that can be affected by this blessing.

"…It's Mephisto." Lansemello glanced at the Hades Cloth that Cairo had put aside and determined his identity in the Hades Army. "He is neither a demon nor a human being. In every sense, he is the same as that guy. But what reason do you have to incite them to suspect me?"

"Even though I didn't tell you everything, what evidence do you have to prove my point?"

"...I have never seen you before." Cairos suddenly stopped his exaggerated movements of his limbs, looked at Lansemelo, and slowly smiled, "I don't need them to be incited - but can you insist that there is nothing wrong with you? Since you know Chronos's name, you can naturally understand what I am talking about, right?"

"After this holy war, I must go find the world consciousness to increase my reward. He only told me that Hades had access to parallel worlds, but he didn't tell me that there is another guy who is directly connected to all the branches of their world tree!!!" Lancermello sighed helplessly and grasped a silver and blue spear from the void, "I can understand what you are talking about-"

"But you can't shake me, and that's enough."

"...Oh?" Cailos pinched the edge of his burgundy hat and raised his eyebrows at Lansemero.

"Stars, pull out the anchor." The paradise fairy who had never rung the bell of the pilgrimage clenched the weapon in his hand that was a replica of a spear that once belonged to a fairy, and coldly announced the end of the existence that had long lost its status as a god, "I am the guardian from the Paradise in the Inner Sea of ​​Stars. It is a tower standing at the end of the world, and it is also an anchor connecting the inside and the outside—"

"This is the gun that announces the end, 'Rhongomyniad'!"

As the spear of light tore through Cairos' body, Lansemello remembered what she had discussed with her colleagues in the Grand Chat Room.

"R.N: Do you have a solution?"

"R.N.: Cairos in our own world may be simpler than Cairos in that world - they are real "gods" that cannot be understood by humans. And he controls the power of time - which means that even if you kill him, he can still be resurrected!!!"

"C.S.: Resetting the individual's time is a simple method - you wouldn't have thought of this possibility."

"C.AG: So I will kill that bug, cutting off his past, present, future -- all possibilities."

"C.AG: So, I want to ask a question—"

"C.AG: Teacher, can I recreate your temple in another world?"

"CS: The Grand Time Temple is independent of the timeline... and exists at all times. Once it is destroyed, there will be no trace of the Grand Time Temple at any time, including everything inside... How could I have forgotten this?"

"C.M.: After dealing with Gaetia, no one has taken care of this matter... Do you agree?"

"C.S.: Of course I allow you to do this - as long as you don't let yourself die... I think even Ritsuka has no reason to stop you from reappearing in the Grand Time Temple."

"C.AG: ...Of course I won't do such a thing again - especially after the story of the fairy kingdom ended, I promised you that I would not do such a thing again."

"C.S.: Then just go for it."

Then, when the light of the Holy Lance disappeared, Lansemello and Cairos both disappeared from the battlefield where time had been frozen - and then appeared on the grassy land in front of the throne inside the Grand Temple of Time.

"This is the Grand Temple of Time, which is independent of the time axis and exists at all points in time. Of course, it is also the cemetery where you are buried." Lansemero held down the hat that matched his Paradise dress and landed lightly in front of Cairos. "I will cut off your past, present, future... all possibilities here."

The Paradise Fairy raised her head and looked at the adult male holding a pocket watch tightly in his hand, with a cold and sharp gaze in her golden eyes - the door leading to the area outside the throne had been closed, and the interior of the entire temple was left with only the ancient God of Time who had fallen into human form, and the Paradise Fairy who had become the consciousness of the planet.

"This is also the domain that my teacher taught me—" Lancermello turned the holy spear in his hand into a sharp sword, alert to the sudden rise of the God of Time, "I will draw the final rest for your movement here. Unfortunately, you are just a human—if you were a god, my method of handling might be simpler and rougher."

"Is that so?" Even though he was dragged into an unknown territory by the enemy, Cailos still remained leisurely and looked at Lansemelo with a smile.

"Since you are the God of Time, you must be able to see her figure - but this has little impact on me, not to mention that this is not the inner world." Lansemero stopped and the golden summoning array was outlined under her feet in an instant. "Miss Nightingale, there is someone here with a brain that needs treatment - I allow you to use any means to ensure his recovery."

"Now that I have come this far, you can rest assured. I will save all lives - even if it means taking away all lives, I will not refuse!"
