"Flazhol is dead."

The enormous skull spoke with a firm tone; clearly, it understood everything about prosperity.

But Cheng Shi persisted, leaping up another step and solemnly declaring:

"What if He hadn't died, or in other words, what if you had saved Flazhol?"

A faint green flame ignited in the skull's eyes on the Bone Throne. It looked at Cheng Shi and pondered for a moment, realizing that he was not being corrupted by Greed, but actually had some ideas. So it decided to listen to what this follower of "Deception" really wanted to do.

"I'm giving you a chance."

Speak."

Cheng Shi became excited and immediately recounted everything that had happened during the Trials without hiding anything.

He told Death that he had saved a tribe of Prosperity people during the Trials and presented them with the image of a true messenger of Prosperity.

Most importantly, after several trials, at the moment when prosperity arrived, these Fungus-Footed People had achieved true salvation.

Regardless of why they were accepted after only four out of the five tests mentioned earlier, ultimately, the right to interpret everything belongs to [Prosperity].

But after Truth subdued Prosperity, He lost the right to interpret everything, so the right to interpret ultimately returned to the hands of the non-existent Divine Envoy Prosperity!

Cheng Shi originally didn't think this identity would be useful at all. He even felt that being associated with history was a burden, so he secretly revealed Hong Lin's ID.

But what was unexpected was that the Covenant actually contained rules regarding the Divine Authority of succession.

In this way, Hong Lin's false identity as a divine Divine Envoy suddenly became the spoon Cheng Shi used to scoop soup from the table of the gods, giving him the opportunity to get a share!

Because that the Great One said that only His children have ever relayed the decrees for [prosperity]!

His gaze was fixed intently on [death], and he spoke with a mixture of madness and lucidity:

"My lord, please forgive my presumption, but I would like to ask you a question: Did you personally witness [Prosperity] assimilate His eldest daughter, Flazhol?"

The enormous skull pondered for a moment, then shook its head.

Indeed, I have never witnessed it with my own eyes.

Cheng Shi's smile deepened, "Did the gods witness firsthand how [Prosperity] assimilated His eldest daughter Flazhol?"

The enormous skull fell silent; it understood what Cheng Shi meant.

As long as no one has personally witnessed [Prosperity] assimilating His children, there is a loophole to exploit!

Indeed, it is impossible to prey on others in front of them. Once fear is instilled in others, as in the case of His child Dizer, then His so-called Cosmic Prosperity will be difficult to spread.

Cheng Shi knew that all the sordid things could only be hidden in the shadows, which was why he asked that question earlier.

Judging from the man's reaction, he knew that the plan was almost half successful!

But in the eyes of [Death], this plan is like a rootless duckweed, yet to begin.

"You should know that the Trials is nothing more than the recurrence of Memory."

When you finish this Trials, these [Prosperous] people will once again sink to the Sea of Memories and disappear into the flow of time.

No one will remember them, and no one will remember those so-called Divine Envoy you speak of.

Just after the giant skull finished speaking, Cheng Shi his teeth, biting a ring, and jumped in front of it.

[Death] The green flame in his eye sockets paused for a moment, and he used his Divine Power to pick up the ring.

"This is the power of Memory."

Cheng Shi nodded frantically:

"Yes, sir, this is a gift from [Memory]. He has given me three opportunities to change history, and now, there is one last chance."

You only need to send me back to the Trials, and I only need to snap my fingers during the Trials, and then everything about the [Prosperity] Divine Envoy will be written into history!

Does this mean we now possess the power to inherit the Divine Authority of "prosperity"?

The enormous skull froze, as if it were not summoning a player, but rather conspiring with [Deception].

"... You cannot explain why Flazhol didn't die."

"She didn't die because you saved her!"

"Why did I save her?"

Cheng Shi gritted his teeth and mustered his courage to offer a reason:

"Why did the Mother of Prosperity assimilate the great Garuda without any reason?"

"He, with his narrow mind, is seeking revenge—revenge for you disrupting His assimilation of Flazhol!"

After he finished speaking, his heart tightened.

This was a very risky move, because it implicated Garuda's death in this deception filled with lies.

If this statement displeases Death, then he will never have the chance to participate in the feast of the gods again.

Not only that, it's even possible that it could actually become a skull, not the kind that sits before you, but the kind that screams like a fool in White Bone Flood.

Unexpectedly, Death nodded after hearing this reason. He looked at Cheng Shi with satisfaction, as if he thought this was the most beautiful sentence Cheng Shi had said today.

"Yes, it was I who saved Flazhol."

"The Mother of Prosperity," enraged, seized an opportunity and devoured Garuda.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Shi immediately knew that he had made the right bet.

[Death] This is not about saving face for myself, but about restoring face for Garuda, the Emissary whom He has chosen!

So He knew that Garuda's self-sacrifice was foolish...

But for so many years He has insisted that Lele'er is a whore, yet He has made no Garuda's choice...

Parents' hearts are always full of love and worry.

Of course, Lele'er is indeed a bitch.

But today, idiot... cough cough, Garuda seems to be standing up.

He went from blindly following Subgod in love to becoming a victim of the retribution of prosperity.

The perspective has completely changed; victims will not be despised, but only pitied.

Cheng Shi was stunned, but also amused. He never imagined that what convinced [Death] to support him was not a plausible deception, but an emotional appeal from ancient times.

"..."

Okay, as long as I can have some soup, that's fine!

Thinking of this, Cheng Shi's eyes burned with fervor.

"So, sir, you must send me back before the Trials is completely over. As long as I snap my fingers and make that historic snap, we'll have a chance!"

A chance to get a piece of the pie!

After hearing Cheng Shi's explanation, the giant skull's eyes blazed with green flames.

No one knew what He was thinking. Cheng Shi only knew that when Death was thinking, the entire Fishbone Hall fell An Jing. The noisy Little Skull were unusually quiet, and even the roaring White Bone Flood stopped flowing.

Countless skulls looked toward the Bone Throne, as if awaiting His instructions.

A long time passed, so long that Cheng Shi worried whether the God War on the Canopy Sea had already ended. If he had planned for so long only to find that the other side had already withdrawn, that would be too Clown.

Unable to contain himself, Cheng Shi nervously stepped forward, intending to alert the adult with the sound of crawling.

But just then, the enormous skull moved. It turned to look at Cheng Shi, and the flames in its eye sockets burned even more fiercely.

You are very Greed.

But you are also very smart.

If Memory had not corrected the errors of history, if Deception could have made her identity more real.

Indeed, it's feasible.

However, you are more suited for this position than your friend.

One who inherits, [prosperity] Divine Authority, and Emissary.

"You don't want it?"
