Chapter 479
A moment later, an eye appeared in the darkness. This was the Divine Eye of Divya, which is said to be able to see all beings and things in the Six Paths existence from the earth down to the lower realms, whether near or far, whether covered or subtle, and therefore can naturally see everything.
Should I say it was a pleasant, unfortunate encounter?
The White-Haired Goddess- haired man, sitting on Throne resembling that of the once- One God, smiled.
"My child."
Novia slowly raised her head as the White-Haired Goddess man, whose face was obscured, spoke these words.
You mean... a child?
"You are Elf King ErlkoNig, and if that's the case, then you are naturally my divine son, and my Authority belongs solely to you."
Deuteronomy also says:
A being like the Child of Man will come on the clouds of heaven and will be brought before the Ancient of Days. He will be given Authority, glory, and a kingdom, and all peoples, nations, and tribes will serve him. His Authority will last forever and will never pass away; his kingdom will never perish.
However, the Judgment must sit while he Judgment.
His Authority will be taken away, destroyed, and annihilated, right to the very end.
As the only religion to dominate the world, Yahweh's origins are complex and varied. However, in the Canaan region where he was born, especially in the Old Testament, "the Ancient of Days" and "the One Who Rides the Clouds" are Yahweh's nicknames. When the Book of Daniel was written in the Lord El-Melloi II AD, the Jews were ruled by foreign peoples, so it is not surprising that ancient mythological traditions were used to depict foreign peoples. What is strange is that "the Eternal Exalted One" and "the One Who Rides the Clouds" appear simultaneously in visions as different figures.
Did Judaism still believe in a God higher than Yahweh until the Lord El-Melloi II AD? Nobody knows for sure.
As is well known, Baal later evolved into Zeus, and even Yahweh has certain elements mixed in. For example, in First Kings and Book of Hosea chapter 2, Yahweh says, "She did not know that I gave her grain, new wine, and oil, and increased her gold and silver, yet she used them to worship (or make) Baal."
If one desires grain, new wine, and oil, one must pray to the Rain God for favorable weather. Therefore, from this perspective, what Yahweh and Baal were vying for was the position of Rain God.
Returning to the Canaan mythology itself, El appears more than five hundred times in the Ugarit documents unearthed in 1928, half of which specifically refer to El himself, the king of the gods, who is depicted as an old man with silver hair, the father of gods and men.
In the Septuagint, the Greece translation of the Old Testament that was prevalent during the New Covenant era, the basis for dividing territories was sometimes the "number of Angel" and sometimes the "number of the sons of God." Ugarit texts record that El and his wife had 70 sons of God, who then divided the land into 70 kingdoms.
Meanwhile, the Book of Deuteronomy in the Old Testament Deuteronomy is replete with descriptions of the two as one:
I will proclaim the name of the Jehovah (Yahweh), and you shall bestow great favor upon our God (El);
You should know that the Jehovah your God (Elohim) is God (El), a faithful God;
Jehovah your God (Elohim) is the God of gods (Elohe Ha"Elohim), the Lord of lords, and so on.
El Elyon is the traditional title of El, meaning "the Supreme Being One".
Whether El is the same being as Yahweh in the Old Testament, or the same person, is actually irrelevant to Novia at present, especially since pigeons are happily possessing and playing in the Solomon era within the Type-Moon universe.
As for why there's such a big difference between Yahweh in the Old and New Old Testament — the Old Testament is completely eccentric, while the New Covenant, after being attacked, gets attacked in another way... that's normal. Romani said that God is capricious, and in the end, it was discovered that there are reasons for this capriciousness.
Perhaps it is because of Jesus, the Savior, that the Lord El-Melloi II Christianity saint Justin once said:
"If the god you speak of is the great power that sends down lightning from the sky, then we are indeed atheists, because we Faith in the justice in our hearts. Our god died for us. The god on Mount Olympus that you Faith may indeed have great power, but would Jupiter shed his blood for you?"
As it turns out, the one who ultimately triumphs is the god who sheds blood for people.
Regardless, El, who emerged brazenly from the Black Mud of the Holy Grail, is an extremely dangerous figure. The mastermind behind Mot's plan is most likely El, the first god of the ancient Canaan mythology.
So, what is the purpose?
Before Novia could speak, El spoke again.
"Although this is our first meeting, I feel that 'compared to Baal, Yam, Mot, those three who have made a fool of themselves for the sake of the Eternal Exalted One,' you seem to be a being destined to be born to become the true Eternal Exalted One.' This feeling fills my heart, and I am so relieved to entrust matters and Authority to you. Success is assured."
He continued.
"There are many things about you in the records of Yahweh."
"Record?"
"From the moment we first met in Rome, everything you said and did seemed significant to Yahweh."
El said softly, "The domineering nature of Yahweh in the Old Testament inspires instinctive fear and devotion, while what I feel in you is a deep longing that wells up within people... This must be what the Holy Spirit is like, how wonderful."
Who exactly are you?
Novia raised a point that was utterly unnecessary, as the problem was obvious at a glance.
El, sitting on the Throne, answered his question with a cheerful smile—like a gentle breeze sweeping across the earth.
"I am El, the first god betrayed by Canaan."
In the Pantheon of Canaan, El occupied the most prominent position.
In Semitic languages, El means "god," and He is "bull," "mighty one," "lord of the years," "king," "father of gods and men," "creator of the earth," "master of the earth," "constant one," and "maker."
However, in the later stages of the development of Canaan religion, El's status suffered a Waterloo-like decline.
Baal bound and stabbed El on Mount El, Mount Saphon's Holy Mountain, in El's palace, thus effectively taking away El's Holy Mountain and power, forcing El to hide at the end of the river, in the deep valley of the abyss.
From then on, Baal, as the new god who ruled the world, lived on Mount Saphon, the Holy Mountain of the Universe, while El lived at the ends of the world.
The eldest son, Prince Yam of the Sea, heard El's lament and gave the dejected El a cup of strong liquor. El then declared Yam his heir, thus foreshadowing the struggle between Baal and Yam, and even the battle with Mot.
However, Baal was the winner in the end.
Later, because Baal had no palace and had never been recognized by El as the second generation of the Eternal Exalted One, all the Canaan gods made a request to Him—to allow Baal to build a palace, since Baal was the current king of the gods.
Otherwise, 'sprinkle fresh blood all over his gray hair, and splatter black and red blood all over his beard.'
"To say that it doesn't matter at all would be a lie."
El's tone was tinged with amusement, but his gaze towards Novia was overly blunt.
"... Yes, I think so too."
"Elf King, what a fine name."
At this point, El placed his hand on his chest, "I think if you were Baal, I would feel very reassured."
Upon hearing this, Novia blinked.
Baal and Zeus are so closely connected, and I possess the Authority of Jupiter a Rome version of Zeus...
"Therefore, to prove my sincerity, please become my sole chosen one this time..."
The next moment, the Black Mud world that had appeared before Novia shattered—
Its color, unlike the divine radiance of Black Mud, permeated everything.
"For when the day is recreated, I will bring about the end of Jesus (the New Covenant) with the Judgment of the Old Testament."
Chapter 497 There was only one from beginning to end.
"... I never expected Asto Vidatu to cause trouble at such a critical moment."
The depths of the River Thames in London are an area not governed by the City's Leyline. Due to the rising global sea level, the River Thames flowing into London is difficult to control, thus becoming a place where some evil Servant and people Servant want to go to other City mingle.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it the dark side of Detective City London, as it's so complex and intricate, like Spider's nest, that even the London authorities struggle to deal with it.
The mastermind behind the London attacks, James Moriarty, was located in --
In a small, nostalgic Coffee Shop across from Scotland Yard, he used the power of Death Gods to forge the identity of 'Berdie Edward' for himself.
This identity is that of the United States detective he killed in "The Valley of Fear." Even Sherlock Holmes knew about it at the time but was powerless to do anything about it. Therefore, the identity of "Berdie Edward" was something Moriarty could fabricate at will, and with the power of the Death Gods, he could naturally disguise it.
"But thinking about it carefully, it's about right."
At this moment, Moriarty's face showed an expression of overthinking. His past cunning and treachery had somehow vanished.
Moriarty, who appeared in the New Era, had the greatest dream of defeating Sherlock Holmes.
However, Sherlock Holmes's Leyline in London were almost "immortal" due to his Spirit Origin and obsession with urban deduction. This did indeed sever his desire to defeat Sherlock Holmes. But just as he was thinking of living a good life with Fran, his demonic nature, capable of destroying all evidence without leaving a trace, sensed something was wrong.
New Era dawned, continents severed ties, and the sky and sea became inaccessible to humans, marking the end of the struggle for survival represented by humanity, the Primate species.
Isn't this both the end and the beginning of the Tower of Babel?
People ceased to connect and became estranged; this was the result of God's intervention after the Tower of Babel collapsed. The struggle for survival among humans ended, which was the significance of humanity building the Tower of Babel.
And since it was absolutely impossible for Moriarty to stand on the side of justice, he deliberately instigated seven years of riots in London to extend an olive branch to the masterminds behind the scenes, according to Moriarty's memories.
In fact, he wasn't the real Moriarty, a fact he was unaware of.
In order to defeat Sherlock Holmes, who was deeply connected to Spirit Origin and London, Moriarty summoned Asto Vidatu, the Persia Death God.
Because he can lead the 'meaning of existence' of a designated target to inevitable annihilation, just like the destruction of Order by evil gods in Persia mythology.
The price was to create seven cases to pollute London's Leyline. The first case was naturally the death of Sherlock Holmes. Although he was not completely annihilated, it was enough as long as all the cases were created. After all, Sherlock Holmes's Spirit Origin was tied to London, so it could be said that he destroyed London.
The subsequent Concert killings, the suicide of the Dogs of Daena, the appearance of Nasu... it seems like only four incidents have occurred so far, but considering Moriarty's abilities, that's almost enough. After all, Asto Vidatu disappeared inexplicably, and the two Moriarty are also cases, aren't they? With my abilities at a young age, it's enough, so there are a total of six incidents.
Only one last lift is needed.
Moriarty looked down at his feet and finally realized that he was heading towards Scotland Yard.
"... I'm sorry, Fran."
He said.
He could only recall the details and the name from his memory and recollections.
But it was impossible not to feel pain; only now did Moriarty truly realize how much malice he had committed against Fran.
Fran often couldn't help her with anything, but just having Fran by his side made him happy, he knew that all too well.
That's precisely why he has to do it this way.
It is precisely because Faria's irreplaceable world has been replaced that he wants to destroy it all.
Therefore, James Moriarty declared with full confidence.
"Dad, I'm going to become the destroyer of the world now."
"The Mechanics of Asteroids," a work by Moriarty, is described as "a rare achievement in pure mathematics, and it is said that no one in the scientific community can offer any criticism of it." This work contains the prelude to what is called the Ultimate Crime in the world—the destruction of the Earth, the destruction of life, and the creation of a larger Small Planet belt.
Therefore, when the seventh case occurs in London, Moriarty will destroy London with Persia Apocalypse power, turning the old world that remains beneath the sea into bullets to shatter this era.
Then.
"As you all guessed, it was I who killed Sherlock Holmes."
"You mean? Detective Pordi..."
"Nice to meet you all, my name is James Moriarty, Moriarty of Evil."
In the bustling Scotland Yard, amidst the gazes of numerous Servant and humans, Berdie Edward walked in with dignity, gently and respectfully putting on his handcuffs, his words tinged with genuine emotion.
"I've come to turn myself in."
"... He turned himself in? And he's on his way to the British Museum to identify the scene of the death?"
That happened ten minutes ago. When the silver -Alice Erice, she learned about it from Fran.
"Yes, Dad dug his own grave..."
Fran, crouching in the corner, gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. "Honestly, he's a grown man, doesn't he feel ashamed? Always secretly playing the villain, I'm going to give him a good punch!"
Fran's clenched fist was weak; he probably couldn't even beat an average person now.
However, among everyone present, there is certainly no one more suitable than her to beat up Moriarty.
Just as Novia, who was using the body of the Alice, was thinking this, Fran stood up and looked at him. "... So, please, you have to give Daddy a good beating too. No one is more suitable than you."
Novia recalled El's earlier words, that he would end the New Covenant with the Judgment of the Old Testament.
If the other person wasn't El, Novia would have refuted him, saying that there should be a limit to exaggeration.
However, the other party was El, the god of all gods who was considered one with Yahweh in the Old Testament.
It wasn't out of fear, but rather the awareness that such a possibility existed. The Old Testament Judgment was in the Book of Daniel, and like the New Covenant Book of Revelation, could it produce a scene similar to that of the Rome era? Although, given El's situation in the later Canaan period, Novia felt that it would be quite delicate if he were judged in the format of the Old Testament Judgment.
After all, he was the one who was brutally beaten by his own daughter and wife, Anat.
When discussing Canaan mythology, one cannot Baal, the chief god whose lineage extends to Zeus. In Canaan, it was his sister Anat who helped Baal become the king of the gods. Anat was the Queen of Heaven of the gods and the ruler of the goddesses during Baal's time in Canaan mythology. She helped him defeat Mot and threaten El.
Even Baal himself was beaten. Anat demanded that Baal reveal the secret of the lightning. When Baal refused, Anat became enraged and began slaughtering Baal's followers, vowing to kill him until Baal submitted to her and revealed the secret.
She was El's wife because she, along with her mother Asherah and El, created the stars in the Heavens and gave birth to seven great benevolent gods symbolizing abundance.
One theory suggests that before the rise of Judaism, in ancient Hebrew mythology, Anat was the wife of Yah, also known as Jehovah. This is true, since there was indeed a little-known Queen of Heaven of the gods in the Old Testament.
Wait a minute, Queen of Heaven?
Thinking of this, Novia recalled the Canaan myths.
In Canaan mythology, there are three beings with this title: Asherah, Anat, and Kadesh. She was created by the Egypt based on the Semitic root word for Divinity or blessed, and she is the source of Kodesh in the Holy Spirit (RuachHa-Kodesh). All three of them are known as the Mistress of Heaven.
