Yes, my choice is my answer

Galiusha pondered for a long time before raising her head, her gaze fixed intently on Cheng Shi, a smirk playing on her lips as she chuckled:

"Becoming a god in the Isle of Hope, or at least underground, is an inconceivable thing. Being close to the gods is enough for people to live well, but to become one of them... many people probably haven't even had such a delusion."

But now, I can choose whether or not to become a god.

Ah, the world of the wanderers is finally a little different.

Mr. Prisoner, if this was a test, I admit it was a shrewd one. You laid bare almost the entire reality of the Cosmos, yet you failed to tell me how many other "[Folly]" alternatives lay behind me. If I choose to refuse, will you use the same Experiment you've replicated in this courthouse on me?

Rather than becoming a Galiusha who "passively agrees," I prefer to be myself.

Of course, if this wasn't a test, then I apologize for what I just said; your sincerity touched me.

Few people underground consider others, and the same is true on the Surface; I am grateful for that.

But you seem to have forgotten, Galiusha is a madman.

"..."

"I have read through a lot of my own 'history' and know how the world sees me. Since I am a madman, I will not be bound by convention."

I don't have many concerns, because I am, in essence, a variable, aren't I?

It was you who brought me out of that Scholarly Council Experiment. Although I am still a variable here, isn't this Change of breaking free from constraints, where a minor variable leaps to become another parameter across the system, exactly what you hoped for?

For me, becoming a god is not a bad thing. When I become [Folly], I can better think about how to prevent people from being tripped up by their own ignorance...

If I have any more time.

Galiusha is very clever. Even though she has only just learned the Universe Truth, she still managed to guess most of the future of the world in a short period of time.

This was not only because of her extraordinary intelligence, but also because of her sensitivity to the Experiment of [Truth] and her familiarity with the various Experiment listed in the Honest Tribunal.

Don't forget, everything here is based on the foundation laid by Wei Mu. The silent transmission between [Folly] allowed Galiusha to quickly dissect the Creator's Experiment in the True Universe and match it with what she had learned. Then she felt that she was getting closer to the truth, the real truth.

Cheng Shi remained silent. He knew that what was about to happen would be difficult to hide from the Wise One, but he could no longer turn back.

With a casual wave of his hand, he bestowed upon her the Divine Authority [Folly] and the Divine Throne. As the figure before her was enveloped in pure white light, Galiusha was reborn.

The moment he reopened his eyes, the Wise One sneered at Cheng Shi:

"It's one thing for people to be foolish and stumble because of their ignorance, but you, Mr. Prisoner, oh no, what should I call you?"

Fool's Game? Predestination? The [Covenant] Proxy? Or... the [Origin]?

Whoever you are, since you already know the truth, why let it trip you up?

Cheng Shi didn't speak, but silently watched Galiusha until the other person put away her teasing and turned all her feelings into one sentence:

Do you think your Foolish Deed will ever be answered?

Cheng Shi nodded without any joy or sorrow:

"Have.

My choice is my answer.

After a long time, Dolgo D ushered in the most glorious day in its history. All the gods in the Cosmos came together, and even those who Vacant Divine Throne had at least one candidate.

As the Divine Descent, Cheng Shi remained silent, while Galiusha stood at the entrance of the Honest Tribunal, counting the Foolish Deed one by one.

[Birth] returned to His domain, Miss Sun appeared to comfort the moon of Dolgo D, protecting it from being troubled by such complex Divine Power.

[Prosperity]... Where's the Big Cat?

Cheng Shi's gaze swept over Tao Yi, only to see the Wood Elf with slightly red eyes turn her head to the side.

Cheng Shi's heart skipped a beat. Before he could ask what had happened, the Doctor, brought by Long Jing, rushed in front of him, grabbed his arm, looked at him with fervent eyes, and kept chanting:

"I found it! I found it!"

I may have found a way to avoid the gaze of the [Origin]! Praise be to the Fool's Game!

"!!!"

"What!?"

"Real!?"

Everyone present was both surprised and delighted. Cheng Shi's pupils contracted, and a hint of struggle flashed across his face again. He pressed down on the Doctor's shoulder and said in a deep voice:

"Don't rush, calm down, and speak slowly."

Under Cheng Shi's persuasion, the Doctor gradually calmed down. Perhaps immersed in the ecstasy of discovering the "Truth," the Doctor did not notice anything unusual, but the shrewd swindlers around him almost simultaneously noticed Cheng Shi's expression.

Something's wrong. Something's extremely wrong.

As is Predestination, the Fate Weaver has always been searching for a way to escape the gaze of the [Origin] and reach the future. If the Doctor has indeed discovered the key, even if he is not excited, as the guide who leads the world through its confusion, he should at least have some reaction.

But now, Predestination too peaceful.

He was calm, as if he already knew how to get to the future.

But if Predestination truly knew everything, he wouldn't have responded this way; he would have said what he's been saying most lately, "I know"...

Thinking about it this way, it seems that what Cheng Shi knew was not a specific method to escape the gaze of [Origin], but rather that he bypassed the method and knew the ending of the world in advance.

And it seems that this ending may not be entirely satisfactory.

At that moment, the Clowns had been working together in perfect harmony, exchanged glances and then turned their gazes to the Dragon King.

The Dragon King was the last person to see Cheng Shi before everyone gathered; if something had happened in between, he should have known.

However, the Dragon King quietly shook his head, indicating that he knew nothing about it.

A silent worry arose, and everyone's expressions varied. Zhen Xin frowned, her gaze passing over the Doctor and Cheng Shi in the room, and then looking at [Folly], Galiusha, behind Cheng Shi.

They've had a lot of discussions lately. Zhen Xin wanted to find some explanation from Galiusha, but Galiusha didn't respond to Zhen Xin. She just listened attentively to the Doctor's findings, as if she had returned to the moment when she resonated with [Truth] when she was young.

The Doctor calmed himself down, sorted out his thoughts on the Experiment, and gradually revealed this great discovery to the public.

"This Experiment shouldn't have yielded results so quickly; it was a remark from 0221 that suddenly woke me up."

I told you that I was conducting Divinity Sprouting Experiment when [Time] summoned me. I couldn't deny the connection, so after returning to the Experiment, I threw myself into the Experiment to search for any guidance that [Time] might have left behind.

As everyone knows, the prerequisite for this Experiment is creating slides, and coincidentally, 0221 revived in my Slice Experiment.

Although the probability is very low, I have reproduced it more than once.

When I saw him again recently, he smiled and said to me:

Are you dozing off again?

Be careful, if you get distracted again, you might not be the one standing in front of the Experiment Field next time, Wang Weijin.

At this point, the Doctor's expression turned somewhat fanatical again, and he said, "Praise the Fool's Game!"

It was this sentence that suddenly reminded me of the decree from [Time] that summoned me and wouldn't let me close my eyes, thus allowing me to see what could be considered the closest Truth to 'Truth' in this world!
