"The pure dualism of good and evil only exists on paper. There's no such thing as an absolute divide between black and white. Everything began because of the two Goddesses' divergent views on power. Compared to the mortal world's creations, they're incredibly pure. They're so pure that they dragged the entire world into their divergent views."
The one who gave an explanation in the end wasn't Cavendish. Instead, it was Ilmisya who had just successfully retreated from a nearby battlefield. However, even though her entire body was charred black, she still did her best to put on a serious expression, which was rather amusing.
"I didn't betray my species. I only betrayed the will of the Chaos Abyss. That's why I didn't inform my species before. It's just that I need to keep this a secret. If even a tiny bit of information is leaked, all my plans will be for naught …"
Karwenz obviously wasn't someone who was good at explaining things. Ilmisya's mature voice had a natural allure to it as if she intended to tell him everything that had happened, but …
"Shut up! Cavendish! Tell me! "
Currently, I was astonished by the information I just learned, as well as angry at how Cavendish called me Cynthia. There were some things that I only wanted to hear the answer from the person herself.
"As expected, the mastermind behind the destruction of the Mist Kingdom was Cynthia!? Mother Cynthia? You knew the truth, yet you still recognized her as your mother, and you're even able to endure it … "
"I'm just stating the truth, Roland. Cynthia is indeed my birth mother. You know about the so-called Children of Fate, right? Then do you know how the Children of Fate came to be? "
"Children of Fate? You actually found out about that as well? Aren't they important chess pieces that have the deepest ties to karma, capable of changing the fate of the entire world? "
Yes, they were only chess pieces. Chess pieces that powerful individuals used to control and control the entire game. No matter how powerful they were, they were still chess pieces controlled by the mastermind behind the scenes. No matter how hard they worked, no matter how many victories and honors they obtained, they would only bring the Holy War to the next cycle. This was the case for Roland from back in the day, and it was the same for Roland in the game's history.
"Then, how did they manage to change the fate of all living creatures? Have you thought about it? "
Cavendish's words stunned me. I had only recently found out about Destiny's Child. I didn't have the time to delve into the messy matters before me.
"Chaos itself is unfathomable. If fate is the power of Order, then breaking the shackles of fate and returning everything to the power of Chaos is naturally the power of the Chaos Abyss. The so-called Child of Destiny is the Child of the Abyss, the Prince of the Abyss. Not only do I have to call Cynthia Mother, you are also her child. "
Cavendish revealed a playful smile.
"Time and Space are the most fundamental rules of Order. Their products are the prophecies that can see through everything. As an enemy, Mother Cynthia naturally needs a 'Child of Destiny' who can shatter all prophecies."
"Before every Holy War, Mother Cynthia would carry out her duty as Creator. She would split her own soul and give it the ability to evolve infinitely. She would construct a new artificial soul and then send it into the mortal world. The Order Faction calls him the Child of Destiny, but if I had to say, it's more like shattering the Child of Destiny. "
"It would seem that the Goddess of Order Astrya on your side didn't tell you the truth. No, it's very easy to see through lies to you. If she isn't an idiot, she probably didn't tell you the entire truth! "
So much information was revealed to me. After reviewing and summarizing, it seemed that the truth was right in front of me.
Indeed, my System wasn't lying. She just didn't tell me the entire truth. This was one of my most familiar language techniques, and I was actually using it on myself.
"The Order Faction has a great prophet, so naturally the Chaos Faction will have a Child of the Abyss. The previous generation's Child of the Abyss was fooled by Astrya, and the Prince of the Abyss mysteriously became a pillar of Order. That's already hilarious enough, but Astrya still wasn't reassured. In the end, she actually killed him and tricked him into giving up his sense of self, becoming a God with no personality. He was completely finished."
[… Roland was willing. He was unable to resist Cynthia's temptation and could fall at any moment …]
"Shut up!"
Pain? Anger? Distrust? Probably both.
I roared angrily in my heart. I felt an indescribable sense of frustration that made me want to raise my head and roar angrily. However, I still forced out a smile. At such a time, I couldn't allow my negative emotions to affect my judgment.
"Hey, hey, hey, bro, don't smile at me like that. It's really scary. The corner of your mouth. "
I wiped it with my hand, only to find that it was covered in blood. I then discovered that I had unknowingly bitten the corner of my mouth. It would seem that I had unknowingly bitten it too hard.
I couldn't allow myself to be dragged along by her words and rhythm any longer. I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and then opened them again as I asked in a heavy tone.
"Continue. What exactly happened between us back in the day?"
"Yep, yep, and this might very well be the last Holy War. Mother Cynthia desired the strongest Child of the Abyss in all of history to defeat her old rival. No, she desired to completely destroy her old rival. As you know, the Creator Goddess is the ruler of this dimension. As long as it's a product of this dimension, it's impossible to destroy her. "
These words caused me to mysteriously think of a possibility that caused my hair to stand on end. However, the next instant, this guess of mine was confirmed.
"Perhaps you already know that the Aichy dimension was nearly destroyed by an invasion from another dimension. This was also the reason why the two Goddesses desired to become stronger. And, this invasion from another dimension also gave Mother Cynthia, who had nowhere else to go …"
At this moment, Cavendish paused for a moment with a malicious expression as he smiled evilly.
"… Since this dimension doesn't have the knowledge or power to kill the Creator Goddess, perhaps another dimension will. That's why, as the Creator Goddess of this dimension, she paid a tremendous price to shatter her dimensional wall and first cast the soul of the Child of the Abyss into another dimension, allowing it to obtain the knowledge and memories of that dimension. Then, she pulled it back as if she was fishing …"
I fell silent. Although I had long since expected this, as there were only certainties and no coincidences in this world, the truth would always be difficult to accept. As expected, even transmigration was controlled by someone else. Were we nothing more than chess pieces from the very start?
"You should already know what happened next. The previous generation's Child of the Abyss was intercepted by the Order Faction. The will of the Chaos Abyss directly possessed the Child of the Abyss. The result was that when Astrya arrived, the remnant souls of the two Goddesses fought again and forcefully tore the Child of the Abyss into two halves.
"And the most inconceivable part was that every soul should have a portion of Order and Chaos. However, the two halves of a soul that were torn apart were far purer than an ordinary person's soul. If an ordinary soul is a ratio of five to five, then the Child of the Abyss is more than nine to one. And so, the true Child of the Abyss and Child of Order were born! They were born with the power of Chaos and Order. "
Cavendish was still smiling as if he was talking about someone else's matters.
"It's just like the difference between the upper and lower planes. The portion that was inclined towards Order would instinctively float up and be born first, becoming the older brother. The portion that was inclined towards Chaos would sink down and become the younger brother. For the two sisters, this was simply a happy ending! And so, they each possessed one of the Child of the Abyss and attempted to control their fates so that they would ultimately fight and kill each other. "
Now that I had explained things to such an extent, I could pretty much imagine what would happen next.
Cynthia possessed Karwenz's body and gave him the ability to grow like a golden finger. Cynthia also arranged the most fatal misfortune for the Child of the Abyss, hoping that he would become even more powerful through this misfortune. And so, our Mist Kingdom was destroyed because of this.
Meanwhile, Astrya possessed me and learned about the "System" from the messy novels in my head. She then combined it with information from other worlds and transformed her prophecy into a "game guide" to guide my fate.
And so, Cavendish became the Prince of the Abyss, while I became the so-called "Illegitimate Child of the Holy Light."
"But! But! They finally went too far! Their chess pieces were out of their control! "
Maniacal laughter appeared on Karwenz's familiar face. His mysterious fanaticism was frightening. Karwenz's smile actually began to distort with fear, excitement, fear, and fearlessness. All sorts of emotions made Karwenz's face look as if it was forcefully pieced together from a jigsaw puzzle. I could sense that this was the true Karwenz, the purest child of the Chaos Abyss after all Order was taken away from him.
"Haha, my dearest older brother, you should have knowledge from other worlds, right? Right, right? I don't have any at all, so it can only be because you have it! You also invented all those messy things when you were young, so you must have knowledge from other worlds. And to be able to create such a world, it must also be the result of knowledge from other worlds. Yep, yep, I'm so happy. The goal that Cynthia's mother didn't have much hope for has actually been realized. A weapon that can truly kill the Creator Goddess has actually been successfully created! Do you know how happy I was when I heard this news!? "
Cavendish's fanatical gaze looked towards this world of ice and snow as if he could see through everything. He saw the Tower of Holy Light's Salvation at the top, as well as the invisible Tower of Death. Cavendish had long since known the structure of the Four Towers, and he had come to this Tower of Ice precisely for this moment!
"Wonderful, truly wonderful! This is the world! Older brother, you've succeeded! It's this powerful weapon that can slay the Gods. You've become the guillotine, and I've brought the prisoners awaiting death. Now, we can execute the two Creator Goddesses who caused the entire world to suffer! Let us take revenge! Let us first kill our mother, and then kill that fake Goddess of Order! Come, let us destroy the shackles of the old generation and return freedom to Chaos! Let everything return to freedom and truth! "
"This is both revenge and a declaration of ascending to the throne. The era of the Twin Goddesses of Order has ended, and the future era belongs to us! The Twin Stars of Order and Chaos! "
