Chapter 1438 - 50: Competitive Gate_2
"Maybe it’s because this Completion Manual wasn’t produced by your Creation Society, so I’m special?""Pfft!"
The Death Lord and Cardinal of Destiny both looked at the Completion Manual with a mischievous name that he took out. After a long silence, the Death Lord couldn’t help but burst into laughter. He then awkwardly took a sip of wine to try to hide his smile, but it was harder to suppress than a cannon and ended up curving more and more.
Being mature, the Cardinal of Destiny remained calm even after seeing the manual not produced by the Creation Society. He examined the Demi-human Girls Completion Manual for a long time and then shook his head,
"No, it’s not that. The chaotic aura on this Completion Manual isn’t strong enough. There’s hardly any recorded knowledge of chaos inside, rather there’s a strange scent that makes it hard for me to see... it’s like it’s hiding."
The last sentence was very quiet, as if the Cardinal of Destiny was also uncertain.
Fisher, somewhat disappointed, took the Completion Manual back and said to the Cardinal of Destiny,
"Asuka said, the Contributor who wrote this Completion Manual is someone from... a Transferee from a place called China. Have you met them?"
"... No, absolutely not, no impression at all."
"I see..."
So, is it possible that he is special himself?
But he is just an ordinary human, with a decent magic talent, a standout among humans, but that’s about it.
He has had a good life; although an orphan, he had a gentle and kind adoptive mother who took care of him, nurtured and educated him, allowing him to grow healthily. He has many friends with close ties, admirers from younger generations, idols, and teachers he looks up to. He also had a dazzlingly beautiful first love, separated due to some changes and youthful misunderstanding...
From a human perspective, he might really be special, his life is interesting. But from a broader world view, when speaking of Mythical Species, True God, and Authority, is his existence truly that special?
But why does it feel this way? Both the Cardinal of Destiny, Gui, and he himself sense something amiss about him.
"Clap clap clap!"
Fortunately, the Death Lord clapped his hands to quickly interrupt his thoughts. Glancing at the Cardinal of Destiny, he said,
"Alright, stop pondering your uniqueness. Even if you are special, it won’t be discovered immediately. The Old Immortal has looked at your fate countless times, and it’s only when you say you traveled back in time that she realizes your uniqueness, which shows she has no ability to discover what’s special about you now... Compared to this, weren’t you just talking about the President? Continue, I need to rush to die."
"..."
The Death Lord reasonably pointed out, and Fisher had no choice but to share some stories about his acquaintance with Tangze Asuka with the Cardinal of Destiny.
"So... you are the teacher she’s been waiting for all along..."
Just as the Cardinal of Destiny finished his somewhat startled statement, the Death Lord grinned foolishly,
"Hey, so you’re the one who taught the President magic. The President is the Magic Minister, and what are you? The Magic Old Ancestor?"
The Cardinal of Destiny, mouth agape, as the shaking of the knots seemed like an invisible gaze was hauntingly gouging at him, only to hear her quietly say,
"... Even if he didn’t teach, with Asuka’s talent, she could master magic on her own."
"Indeed, that’s true."
Fisher acknowledged Tangze Asuka’s outstanding magic talent, he agreed that being her teacher was merely setting the stage, otherwise he wouldn’t need to pursue the secrets of magic and Chaos Species, unlike her who could craft multi-ring magic to confront Barbatos and Agares.
But the problem is, from Fisher’s words, aside from learning more about Tangze Asuka’s history and knowing she was clumsy and naive when she arrived, the Cardinal of Destiny couldn’t glean any clues.
She slowly fell silent, not speaking for a long time, until after quite a while, she said,
"If you met her ten thousand years ago, then she has been waiting for you for over four thousand years. Her feelings toward you transformed into a prolonged wait; she continuously battled the chaos within her mind, maintained her sanity, teaching and saving one Transferee after another who arrived in this world, including me... We all see her as a model and a pillar, as long as she’s around, we still have hope of returning home and the confidence to fight against madness and collapse...
"But more than five thousand years ago, her powers were nearing their peak. All her abilities were approaching the True God level, not counting the magic she wielded. She always hid her tracks, interacting only with a few friends. She believed she could always wait for your return, but unfortunately, as her rank ascended to its peak, her body inevitably began to nurture Authority and rules... This placed her increasingly in danger, with the world’s rejection reaching its climax, while simultaneously a possible path home opened before her...
"She felt unprecedented conflict and struggle, but she had no choice, with the urgent situation then, she was forced to enter the Spirit Realm, truly coming into the gods’ direct sight, embarking on the journey home. The Mother Goddess in the Spirit Realm is her friend; even with the realm’s pollution, with the help of the Mother Goddess, theoretically, her prospects of returning home should be high... Yet, shortly after, she vanished without a trace. We had agreed that she would send me a message upon successfully crossing the Ultimate and leaving, but I received nothing..."
