Things like fate were bullsh * t.
Jon had never believed in such things. If it was not necessary, no one would get involved with others for no reason.
There must be a reason for Sesatri's arrival. They had a lot in common. Compared to fate, Jon was more willing to believe that the will of the world was pushing this thing to happen.
His reason was also very good. The revival of the ancient Egyptian gods was not a secret. Even though not many people knew about this, this matter would not be hidden from the will of the world. Even the ancient Egyptian gods would not hide it.
Because there was no need.
The return of the gods, even in a strict sense, was completely in line with the rules of the world, just like the alternation of yin and yang and the rotation of the four seasons. Even if the will of the world was unwilling to do this, it could not do anything about it.
The process had already started, and there was no problem at every step. There was no way to stop it.
After all, it was a god, not a person.
So the will of the world could only push the people who stood in the opposite direction of the ancient Egyptian gods to make a move. From its perspective, this matter was no different from a child's game of chess.
Sometimes it could be the other way around. When there were too many wolves, even the powerful tiger could only become food.
So many things were under the control of the supreme existence of this world, and changes could be made with a single thought.
The will of the world wants you to do this, so you do it.
It sounded terrifying, but for ordinary existences, this was fate.
As Jon had said before, fate was something that could not be controlled. Anything that happened anywhere in the world could change the direction of the world. At this time, it was a bit ridiculous to say that fate was predestined.
But it was also because fate was uncontrollable that it became very easy to change a person's fate.
— "There is a net in the world."
The predetermined fate of all beings before they were born was intertwined into such a net. In this grid, the path of every being was predetermined. As long as all beings followed this predetermined track, the world would develop in a better direction, and there would be no destruction of the world.
But at the same time, as long as a person's fate was slightly stirred up in the invisible web of fate, their fate would be changed. In the future where there were countless possibilities, what should have been done by this person would naturally be done by others.
However, not all existences' fates were shrouded by this net. Variables were the fish that slipped through the net, and they were also the existences that could change the world the most.
Jon knew this very well, and he also knew that he was a variable. He was just borrowing the shell of "Jon" to exist in this world, so he tried his best to weaken his existence. While protecting himself, he let things develop in the direction he originally knew.
It had to be said that it was effective, but the problem was even bigger.
After all, there were countless possibilities in the future to begin with. As long as there was a little interference, it would become a different story.
For a world, future changes were very dangerous. This could lead to the destruction of the world. Therefore, in order to avoid this kind of destruction, the will of the world hidden in the dark had to make adjustments to the world. Moreover, it had to constantly make adjustments.
In the past, there were gods and powerhouses who did this. Later on, only the World Will was left.
But the change of variables was a change, but was the adjustment of the World Will not?
Of course, it was, and the impact was not small.
It was precisely because of this that no one knew — perhaps no one knew what the future would become except for the true master of fate. Even if Jon had tried his best to reduce his impact on the world, it might not help.
Perhaps at this time, the fate of the world and his own fate had slipped in a direction that he could not control. Just like now, the matter of the ancient Egyptian gods was inexplicably placed in front of him, making him feel pressured. There might be more things that he could or could not bear that would appear in his fate line, but it had not yet come.
Jon did not feel that he could afford to gamble, so he had to live a more careful life. He took one step at a time, and three steps at a time. He really had no choice but to make this choice.
The only thing that was worth being happy about — perhaps it was a freak combination of factors, or perhaps his efforts had worked, but at least in the small map of Hogwarts and England, everything was developing in the direction that he knew.
Although the details had changed too much, the things that should have happened were still operating on the original track. This was a good thing.
However, what should have been a coincidence in the original storyline had now become a deliberate push under control. The result had not changed, but the process was different.
The students were like marionettes, performing for people like Jon and Dumbledore — although sometimes they were also actors, in the end, they were still the nominal directors of this play.
…
…
In the afternoon, Jon came to the castle again.
Today, there was indeed a matter for him to attend to, because half a month after the start of school, the principal had finally returned to the school. More importantly, there was finally a letter from Grindelwald.
He seemed to have done something extraordinary, and did not say much in the letter, only that he would come over tonight.
Thus, Jon had no choice but to appear in the castle and help him look for Dumbledore.
Grindelwald's matter was no longer a secret. According to Cecatly, Grindelwald had done something big in the new generation of Black Wizard circles in Germany. He had cleaned up that area. Although it was said that he had borrowed the power of Cecatly's family, the real person who had suppressed the Black Wizard circles was Grindelwald himself. In order to ensure that the information would not be leaked, those who recognized Grindelwald — even those who could possibly recognize him — were all eliminated.
The process was described by Cecatly as extremely bloody, but Jon felt that Grindelwald was capable of such a thing.
When Jon was with Grindelwald, this legendary Black Wizard had always maintained a good image as a teacher. However, when he was with Lille, he had heard some gossip. The reason why the Black Lord was the Black Lord was not without reason.
In order to hide his identity, he would do anything.
However, some things could be hidden from others, but they could not be hidden from Dumbledore, who was also a legendary Wizard.
Because of this, Jon was very worried about his upcoming mission as a lobbyist.
