There was a book inside the treasure chest. I took it out and looked at it.
The Gospel of the Death God!
"Holy crap, what is this thing? Is this treasure chest connected to Gegewah's panties?"
Su Xi was a little dumbfounded.
This item doesn't even have a system note; it's just a book.
Upon returning to the border of the Oens Empire, Su Xi temporarily found a hotel to stay in.
I flipped through the Gospel of the Death God over and over, but I couldn't find anything in the book; it was all blank.
"Isn't this the Book of Heaven without Words?"
Su Xi was speechless and threw the book onto the bed.
He then took out the long spear from his backpack.
"Ding! Item [Divine Spear Gungnir] has been found that meets the activation conditions for [Dimensional Avatar]. Do you wish to consume this item?"
"Let's use it up."
In the blink of an eye, the divine spear in his hand disappeared, transforming into a talent skill on his Dimensional Avatar.
[Dimensional Avatar: Remilia Scarlet]
Su Xi silently recited the name of the skill, and her field of vision instantly became much lower.
However, she's gotten used to frequently transforming into a loli, so she opened the system panel without a care in the world.

Like Fulan, her skills primarily involve Spell Card- based bullet hell combat.
"It's pretty much what I expected; it's mostly based on skills that have appeared in the game. But this Destiny Talent..."
Remy looked thoughtfully at herself in the mirror.
She had short, light blue hair, and wore a soft cap just like Fulan's. Beneath the cap were a pair of scarlet vertical pupils, as if being looked at by her would make one feel as if they were being watched by something dangerous.
She was wearing a pink short-sleeved dress and lots of little girl accessories.
He was very short, much shorter than his original body, but taller than Qiqi.
Overall, she looks like a child under ten years old, but she has a pair of black bat wings on her back that are taller than herself. Judging from her silhouette alone, she doesn't seem petite at all.

At this moment, the mirror surface rippled.
Remilia: "?"
The moment a question mark popped into her head, her reflection in the mirror had completely changed into a different pose.
She was clearly standing, but the person in the mirror appeared to be sitting. It was obvious that she was sitting on the windowsill, but everything else was gray.
"Hey, help me change my fate line."
Remilia: "Huh?"
Remy was dumbfounded when she heard her reflection in the mirror making a request.
I just got this avatar and I'm not yet proficient in using its abilities. How am I supposed to change my fate?
"Wait, something's wrong, I dialed the wrong number." Several red lines appeared before Remy's eyes in the mirror.
After observing carefully, he rolled his eyes and said speechlessly, "You should have said you just got your avatar. I thought the huge fluctuations on the fate line meant I was very strong. Turns out you just got this avatar. Damn it, what a waste of divine blood power."
Remilia: "..."
Just as I was about to ask my reflection in the mirror what it was saying, the Gospel on the bed suddenly floated up, and a strong sense of death emanated from the book.
Call out.
A dark force rushed into the mirror, stabilizing the trembling image of fate.
Remy in the mirror looked surprised and asked, "How did you get this item?"
Remy was still completely bewildered.
Unexpectedly, Remy in the mirror waved goodbye, saying, "You're such an idiot! I can't be bothered talking to you. My future self, help me gather all the incarnations of the Crimson Devil Mansion and rebuild Crimson Devil Mansion! That's my request!"
"Um?"
Upon hearing this strange request, and recalling her initial demand for her to change her identity, Remy's eyes widened in surprise.
Is the Remy in this mirror the Remy I was when I was seriously ill in real life?
Is Remy's ability to control fate really that powerful?
"No, I still need to find you eight years from now." Remy in the mirror frowned and disappeared.
The rippled mirror returned to calm.
Remy immediately grabbed the Gospel book from the bed, wondering what it had just done.
In an instant, dense text appeared on the Gospels.
From the moment she entered the Meta World, the Gospels have recorded everything she obtained, from the items she acquired to the present moment.
This Gospel is written from a third-person perspective, meaning that many events she overlooked are recorded in it.
"So, the Gospel was just to replenish Remy's divine power back then, so she could find herself eight years in the future?" Remy narrowed her eyes, wondering why this Death God Deity would help her...
There is also a record about Su Yu.
On November 15, 2023, at 10:05 PM, "" came into contact with the "Touch Garment," attracting the attention of the Witch of Pleasure.
On November 15, 2023, at 10:15 pm, "" escaped back to reality and huddled at the foot of the bed, trembling.
On November 15, 2023, at 10:20 p. m., "" and Su Yu fell asleep.
On November 15, 2023, at 10:30 PM, the soul of the Witch of Pleasure accidentally pierced through the void and came to reality with "", where it was shattered by the power of the God of Death, causing the power of Joy to be absorbed by Su Yu.
The quotation marks represent her name, Remy doesn't know why the Gospel uses this symbol to represent her name.
But there is no doubt that Joy did not like Su Yu because of Kurumi. Giving Su Yu the title of "Child of Pleasure" was purely because she was startled by the "Touch Garment". When she returned to reality, she brought the Witch of Pleasure back with her. When the Witch of Pleasure tried to invade her soul, she was shattered by the Grim Reaper, but the power of Joy could not shatter it.
All of these powers were absorbed by Su Yu, which is the direct reason why Su Yu obtained the title of "Child of Pleasure".
Actually, Elysia had already told her about the issue of Joy. As soon as Kurumi returned, Joy sacrificed herself to help Kurumi cover up the traces of time on her body, so she didn't have time to attack Su Yu. It's just that she didn't have time to think about it at the time, so she didn't think of it.
"This is truly a cruel twist of fate..."
Remy's situation is complicated.
Unexpectedly, the culprit turned out to be herself.
Fortunately, the title "Child of Pleasure" did not have any real impact on Su Yu, otherwise Remy would not have been able to forgive herself.
Remy sighed and closed the Gospel.
"If my past self from over a year ago can contact my present self, then can't I, now, also contact my past self? If I prevent that self from touching the [Touch Garment], wouldn't that prevent what happened later?"
Remy thought to herself.
The title "Child of Pleasure" doesn't affect Su Yu much, so it's up to Remy whether she does it or not. The main thing is to try out the power of fate and see how far she can go.
If I could change my past fate, then my past self wouldn't have needed to be so fixated on Kurumi's "Yud Bet".
However, it seems I didn't have much opportunity to come into contact with divine power in my previous life...
According to Remy just appeared in the mirror, manipulating fate requires divine power.
She happens to possess an inexhaustible source of divine power.
Switch back to your original form, condense a drop of divine power into a crystal, put it in your backpack, and then transform into Remy to take it out.
This way, Remy can also use the divine power of her true form.
Clutching the Divine Power Crystal, Remy attempted to activate her power.
Sure enough, in an instant, a vast network of fate lines appeared before her eyes, densely packed with fate lines radiating outwards from her as the source.
"The selection process, the fate that has been formed between me and the [Touch Garment] in the past."
Soon, only a few threads remained of the vast network of fate.
One is the fate line where she obtained a sleeping "Touch Garment", another is the fate line where she touched the "Damaged Touch Garment", and there are many other fate lines related to Kurumi. In these fate lines, Kurumi talks to her about the power of the Touch Garment.
There's no need to look at anything else.
Remy grasped the fate line of the [Damaged Touch Garment], and her mind and spirit seemed to return to the scene when she touched the [Touch Garment] and was startled by those memories.
"No! The past cannot be touched!"
Remy woke up from the Line of Fate, her heart pounding with alarm bells, her whole body trembling and covered in cold sweat.
"So... so dangerous..."
Although she didn't know where the danger came from, the feeling of touching her past destiny terrified Remy, as if she would be reduced to ashes if she wasn't careful.
