“.....”
In the Dean's residence, silence filled the air.
The Dean watched Androgines' transformation and departure. His expression changed several times before he finally fell silent.
The Godfather, on the other hand, had been a witness from the beginning, with a gentle expression on his face.
The two of them looked at each other without saying a word. Even though the academy was in an uproar, the professors and students were all discussing the strange phenomenon just now, and there were even people coming to the Dean's residence, seemingly planning to ask the Dean how to deal with this situation. The two of them remained like this and did not move at all.
It was not until the strange phenomenon in the sky completely dissipated and Androgines disappeared that the Godfather spoke as if he was satisfied.
"In this way, God will return to his Throne of Heaven. Divine Ingenuity has indeed been born, but it does not belong to anyone. This is the result of humans coming into contact with the Divine Realm for the first time since the Common Era."
His tone was like that of a recorder of history, without the slightest bit of regret or excitement.
In fact, the Godfather was indeed looking at all the problems from the perspective of a bystander.
The Association was a complete bystander, so that they could maintain the order of the Magic World. This style had been passed down from the Godfather.
Therefore, to the Godfather, he would only bear witness, only record, and would never interfere.
The reason why he left the Vatican and appeared here was just to see the final result of his foresight.
In contrast, the Dean's feelings were definitely much more complicated.
After all …
"That is what you have been pursuing for half your life, but it does not belong to this world."
The Godfather looked at the Dean as if he was testing something.
"Seeing this result, it is about time for you to give up on Divine Ingenuity, Rutherford."
The Godfather was just saying that.
The Dean was silent.
He was silent for a long time.
But …
"Give up? Why should I give up? "
The Dean seemed to have blown away all the emotions in his heart. Faced with the departure of the thing he had been pursuing for half his life, he was neither depressed nor desperate. Instead, he revealed a calm smile.
Because …
"At the very least, the result this time proves that Divine Ingenuity does indeed exist. It can be created by the hands of magicians like me. It is not something illusory."
Creating God.
This word was easy to say, but it was no different from having a mental disorder.
No matter who it was, upon hearing that someone wanted to create a god, they would first think that the other party was joking, right?
This was a miracle that all humans would subconsciously not be able to recognize.
However, the result this time proved that it was possible to create a god.
If that was the case …
"I have no reason to despair."
The Dean of the Academy revealed a smile full of ambition as he spoke.
"Androgines' hypothesis is correct. Artificial souls and the structure of the Holy Church are indeed capable of giving birth to the Children of God. I've also proven that the Children of God don't need to receive flesh, and I've even witnessed the existence of the World of God. In that case, my next research will definitely be able to proceed more smoothly and be more effective."
These words told the godfather that the dean did not intend to give up on divinity and ingenuity.
Even if the first Divine Mechanic left, he could just create a second one. That was what the dean wanted to tell the godfather.
"That sounds like something you would say." The godfather wasn't surprised at all, but he said indifferently, "But it is said that Want Stone has been lost, and it is likely that Androgines took it to another world. How do you want to carry out the experiment again?"
Without Want Stone, trying to create a second Divine Mechanic was undoubtedly a joke.
"Only the Original Sin Stone can give birth to a God's soul. Eve's Heart can't do it. Now you need to replan the Fool's Holy Church, right?"
The godfather seemed to be reminding the Dean of how difficult it would be next.
And the Dean of the Academy still didn't take it seriously.
"Then let's start with the replication of Want Stone. Anyway, the information and analysis have been collected."
That was the Dean's plan.
"Can we make it in time?"
The godfather smiled wryly.
If it was really as the Dean said, starting from the replication of Want Stone, then replanning the establishment of The Fool's Holy Church, until the second Androgines was born, and then transforming it into a Divine Mechanic, it would take a long time.
The Dean of the Academy might not be able to complete it in his lifetime, and even the future generations might not be able to complete it.
"Even so, I will continue to pursue it until the day when the Divine Mechanic really falls into my hands."
The Dean's voice did not waver at all.
The godfather looked at the Dean and sighed.
"From a magician's point of view, many people will praise you for being so persistent in the pursuit of mystery, saying that you are worthy of being the strongest magician in the 19th century, right?"
The godfather said with a sigh.
"But who knows that the reason why Edward Rutherford is so persistent in pursuing the Divine Mechanic is neither to gain power, nor to obtain technology, nor even to gain knowledge to make a huge change and contribution to the magic world, but just to fulfill the agreement between him and his dead wife?"
Exactly.
The reason why the Dean of the Academy was so persistent in pursuing the Divine Mechanic was to fulfill the agreement between him and his dead wife.
"I have long vowed to offer the Divine Mechanic in front of my dead wife's grave."
The Dean looked at the godfather.
"For this, I will not give up."
No matter how many years it takes, it will be the same.
The Dean of the Academy expressed his determination.
"Then I will wait and see."
The godfather narrowed his eyes, then chuckled, turned his head, and left.
The Dean watched the godfather leave, then looked out of the window again, sat down, and dealt with the official business.
As if nothing had happened.
.....
Academy, underground space.
Here, the sound of tears of joy continued to ring, acting on the surroundings.
Tenzen and Raizen gathered together with the people of the Akabane Clan and hugged each other tightly, crying and laughing at the same time. They looked like two little kids.
Fuko was also among them, hugged by her two brothers, showing a happy expression.
The Akabane Clan, headed by Akabane Kuukan, also shed tears of surviving a disaster.
The Akabane Clan, which was once destroyed, was so miraculously reunited, laughing and crying with each other, there was nothing else in their eyes.
Rozen looked at this scene from a distance, with a knowing smile, and turned around.
"Let's go."
Rozen whispered to Irori, Ye Ye, and Komurasaki.
"Aren't you going? Rozen? "
Komurasaki was surprised.
Not only Komurasaki, but Irori and Ye Ye were also very strange.
But Rozen just shook his head.
"I won't go." Rozen smiled calmly and said, "I will meet them later if I have a chance."
After saying that, Rozen left.
Irori, Ye Ye, and Komurasaki looked at each other, then followed Rozen and left quietly.
Looking at these three girls, Rozen couldn't help but recall a few days ago, when he just came back from Izanagi clan and was ready to take Raizen to talk to Tenzen, so he went to find Sharuko.
On that day, Rozen and Sharuko had an unknown conversation.
