After listening to Jing Yan’s account, Adele had a general understanding of the cause and effect of the ancient tragedy. It could be said that it was a complete conspiracy orchestrated by Yawei. Perhaps from Jormungandr’s rebellion, it was a game set up by Yawei. And step by step, with the most meticulous mind and terrifying patience, She endured countless eras and finally achieved Her goal.
Just imagining it made Adele feel a chill down her spine. At this moment, the girl only felt that it was... great that there were no yanderes in her harem! But Adele always had a question she wanted to ask Jing Yan. Taking advantage of this opportunity, she just happened to ask for a solution.
She looked into Jing Yan’s eyes and said, “Since you have awakened this memory, why are you still helping a tyrant?”
“It really made me fight hard. Can’t you just directly...” Adele muttered the rest of her words without finishing. She couldn’t just write “freeload” on her face. Ahem, how embarrassing would that be for the Chosen Girl?
And the facts proved that the girl could also defeat Jing Yan with her own efforts. Jing Yan smiled wryly.
“If there was a girl who was a jinx, lonely and bullied since childhood,”
“And then a big sister adopted her, healed her wounds, soothed the scars in her heart, taught her magic, treated her gently, and finally watched her grow all the way and become the master of a world.”
“After thousands of days and nights of being together, Adele, what would you choose?”
“...”
Adele was silent. She then realized that there was also such a complicated sadomasochistic love story between Jing Yan and Yawei. Being raised by her own enemy, but already deeply in love.
Even Adele couldn’t give the answer to this multiple-choice question. After thinking about it, Adele could only come up with the same solution as Jing Yan. She would do her best for Yawei.
But she also gave Adele a fair chance to compete, patiently waiting for her to accept the inheritance from Sodom of the mythical era. And then it was up to fate, win or lose.
If she won, it was Yawei’s victory. If she lost, Adele would have the opportunity to merge with Jing Yan’s power and compete with Yawei for the authority of the world.
“It’s hard for me to believe that the Lord of Heaven would be the kind of woman you described...”
“She isn’t, but she is.” Jing Yan spoke like a riddle master, but Adele clearly understood what Jing Yan meant.
“In order to ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) find me, Yawei also took risks and divided her mind into three parts.”
“It was the Balance in her mind that found me. Perhaps this is my luck.”
“Because if Yawei’s natural desire found me first, maybe I would become her ‘Star Wrath.'”
“If Yawei’s Heaven’s Way found me, the two of us together would be truly emotionless and desireless.”
“Under many coincidences, there was today’s destiny.”
“Adele, do you believe in destiny?”
“...I don’t.” Adele thought for a moment and shook her head.
“What if even your disbelief in destiny is part of destiny?”
“Then destiny is too much of a cheat! Who is it! It can say whatever it wants!”
“Pfft! Haha!” Hearing Adele’s response, Jing Yan couldn’t help but laugh.
“This is an answer I will never learn in my lifetime.”
“Adele, I like you,” Jing Yan looked up, her eyes sparkling, and said seriously.
“Eh!?” Adele was shocked, and her face instantly turned red. Jing Yan had to explain.
“Not that kind of like.”
“Perhaps it’s more appropriate to say envy, but envy is not enough to express my mood at this moment.”
“Anyway, being able to have such a hearty battle with you,”
“Even if I lose to you, I’m willing.”
“And chatting with you is really interesting.”
“I understand. You want to be friends with me.”
“You could say that.”
“But can we... be friends?” Jing Yan smiled bitterly.
Adele immediately said, “Why not!”
“No matter what, you will always be my friend in my heart!”
“Pfft... Then I will really become your eternal friend in your heart soon~” Jing Yan’s words had another meaning, and Adele also realized what kind of “dark joke” she had just said in front of Jing Yan.
She suddenly felt a little sad because Adele knew that Jing Yan would soon, just like Shirley, merge her mind into her body. Without the threat of Heaven’s Way, Adele could safely awaken the... big guy in her spiritual realm.
One of the Creation God’s soul fragments, representing the existence of the natural id. Speaking of her, it was the evil god Ain who discovered her first. The evil god Ain wanted to invade Adele’s spiritual world and usurp the nest.
As a result, she met her match. She was flicked out of Adele’s spiritual world with one finger and never recovered. Ain was also an evil god of a world, but she couldn’t even last half a move under one of the Creation God’s soul fragments.
It was conceivable how powerful she was. No wonder Shirley said that Adele held the source of power, because human desire was originally the most primordial driving force. At that time, in Adele’s body, the three soul fragments of the Creation God would merge into one.
Then the Creation God would awaken from countless years of slumber. Even Adele couldn’t be sure. At that moment, would it be herself who awakened, or a strange god?
If this was what Jing Yan asked... destiny? Then Adele had made up her mind. She would surrender to the enemy! Ahem, just kidding.
But one thing was certain, Adele’s mind would definitely turn the Creation God’s spiritual world upside down! She wasn’t as honest as Shirley and Jing Yan.
As if seeing Adele’s doubts, Jing Yan shook her head, completely convinced in her heart. “Don’t worry, your desire and willpower are too strong.”
“What’s more, the Creation God’s heart has already died on the day of destruction in ancient times.”
“What is gone is gone, and what is buried is buried.”
“At most, I’ll borrow your body to play dead. After understanding this cause and effect, you will be the master of all wills.”
“...It sounds ominous.”
“But, with your words, I’m much more relieved!”
In the World Tree Domain, Adele reached out and took the initiative to help Jing Yan up. The two looked into each other’s eyes, and Adele was the first to look away shyly.
As expected, staring at a girl who looked exactly like her, only with different hair color, was still a bit awkward. But thinking that the two would soon... separate? Or never separate? Adele couldn’t describe it.
She still chose to look back at Jing Yan again. She would always remember her, and always remember Shirley, remember the past of the mythical era, and then, carrying the will of every era, including the current modern era, raise the blade of god-slaying towards Yawei, the Lord of Heaven, who had already become delusional and obsessed!
The World Tree Domain was lifted by Adele. The two returned to reality from the opened space. The starlight created by Adele for this world was still blooming in the dark sky in the distance. Even though it was dim, the existence of light itself was enough to inspire all races who were in fear and helplessness.
And the light created by humans themselves also shone in every corner of the planet. That was the light of technology, the light of civilization.
Jing Yan slowly walked to the window and looked out from Adele’s bedroom. She had also hoped that among the lights of thousands of homes, there would be one that belonged to her and her...
But now, she had let go, given up on this twisted love. And the remaining lights of thousands of homes, even if she couldn’t enjoy that warmth, but was fortunate enough to be “taken care of,” she also had a reason to protect it.
“Adele, speaking of which...”
“We haven’t hugged yet, have we?”
“...”
Adele blushed, thinking why it was suddenly so mushy. But she still responded as usual and nodded. And thoughtfully, she slowly walked towards Jing Yan. Then, Adele opened her arms, closed her eyes, and tightly hugged the girl in front of her.
“...I wish I could also learn.”
“This always warm embrace of yours.”
So, this was the final farewell.
Goodbye, Adele.
Jing Yan smiled and closed her eyes, turning into countless snow-colored light particles like fireflies, starting from her silver hair. They lingered around Adele’s petite body, which she refused to let go of, empty embrace, as if a snowstorm had swept up.
The snowflakes fluttered, one after another, into Adele’s heart, bringing not coldness, but a burning sensation that made her cry.
“Liar.”
“Haven’t you... already learned it?”
“It was so warm meeting you.”
