Lord Foolish Play?
[Fool's Game]?
Hu Wei and Da Yi exchanged a glance and both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
As expected of the Emissary of [Deception], even his name is so... Deception.
"I won't go into details about what happened next, just remember one thing: wherever you encounter Him, and whoever He is impersonating, don't spoil His fun, and don't try to get close to Him."
He is capricious and far more difficult to approach than His Lord of Grace.
Alright, let's end today's meeting here. I have many things to do. I need to finish this troublesome matter quickly so I can return here as soon as possible and serve before the palace.
As for you...
I have high hopes for you all; you still have a chance.
Seeing that Ultraman had given them the order to leave, the two bowed and prepared to depart. Before leaving, Hu Wei hesitated for a moment and tentatively asked:
"My lord, Lin Renyu and Chen Chi have both been in trouble. I wonder if there will be more in the future..."
Hu Wei didn't finish speaking, but Cheng Shi already understood what he meant: they needed more people because they were short-handed.
If you're asking me to find you two a go -to Mouth Brother to talk to, I can bring in two more.
But if you're asking if I need help from the [Chaos] faction... well, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't get anyone to help me.
Cheng Shi slightly pursed his lips and forced a strange smile, saying, "You'll know what happens in the future."
Hu Wei was taken aback, nodded, bowed again, and left with Da Yi.
As they jumped into the [Giggle and Mock] space and left, Cheng Shi's expression turned serious, and he looked up at the high place.
"Katarro, do I have to go through the [Chaos Divine Steps] again?"
He clearly wasn't talking to Katarro, since it was Chaos that brought him down, but Cheng Shi didn't dare to point fingers at Chaos, so he could only let Katarro suffer in silence.
What he didn't expect was that [Chaos] seemed to only want him to play Ultraman, but didn't want to summon him again. So, while Cheng Shi was still waiting for a response on the platform, he was stunned Cheng Shi a moment when a giant hand formed from Chaos Yellow Mist suddenly appeared beside him and slapped him without saying a word.
???
Cheng Shi wanted to hide, but he was overthinking it.
How could a Mortals resist the expulsion order of True God? So, his vision went black and he was pulled into the Void and disappeared.
When the Chaos Temple fell silent once more, Katarro stood bowing in the hall, respectfully asking the air in the center of the hall:
"My Lord of Grace, now that Ultraman has regained his identity, why don't you summon him?"
A sneer rang out in the air:
"What he wanted was not the identity of Subgod, but the power of Emissary. He wanted both. He was too greedy and annoying to be around."
"..." There was no way to respond to this, Katarro remained silent for a while, keeping his eyes down, before finally unable to suppress his curiosity and asking, "Lord of Grace lord, forgive my presumption, but Ultraman mentioned you... mentioned the Emissary of [Deception]."
During the time I've been working for you and Proxy on behalf of Ultraman, I've also heard some news about the Subgod.
However, this "Fool's Game Master"... I don't think I've ever heard of him before.
Does He really exist?
"It's fake." The voice in the air changed, becoming slightly cheerful yet deliberately suppressed. "[Deception] has never had any Emissary, so the identity of [Fool's Game] is fake, but... [Nothingness] does have a true Subgod."
Katarro paused, then exclaimed in surprise, "Then isn't that [Destiny]...?"
"Indeed, after writing the Predestination final chapter, [Destiny] promoted an Emissary whom He deemed worthy and bestowed upon him the Divine Name [Hope's Flame]."
"Ha, how interesting. If the ending is a tragedy, what Hope's Flame can it possibly ignite?"
As he spoke, Hunyin in the air chuckled twice more.
Katarro dared not comment on these matters concerning Him, so he quietly lowered his head and remained silent. After a while, the laughter ceased, and seeing that his Lord of Grace had not yet left, he pondered for a moment and once again asked the question that had been on his mind.
"My Lord of Grace, please forgive my overstepping once again. Since you know that the purpose of [Memory] is impure, why did you allow it to speak those seductive words in your Temple?"
It seems that Ultraman has been influenced by Him, changing his views on you... and on [Deception] and [Nothingness].
"I did it on purpose." [Chaos]'s reply was meaningful.
"You... did this on purpose?"
"Indeed, he is too compatible with the Nothingness. If we don't use this method, he will never step out of the Nothingness."
"But why do you want the adult to step out of the 'Nothingness'? Isn't piety better?"
"Ha, who told you that he would be devout just because he is in the [Nothingness]?"
"You've played him for so long, don't you know how blasphemous he is?"
"..."
Katarro broke out in a cold sweat.
I know this all too well, but I would never dare to learn it!
The being in the air seemed to sense Katarro's predicament, and with a soft chuckle, continued:
"Faith must eventually merge. That's what the writer 'Truth' thinks, and that's what the Foul Mouth 'Folly' thinks. Although I look down on them, I can't deny that on the road to omniscience and omnipotence, no one can match their speed."
I don't know if the answer to "Truth" is correct, but before "Truth" becomes true Truth, I need to have the same answer in my own hands.
Katarro seemed to have heard something extraordinary; he felt that his Lord of Grace seemed to be in an exceptionally good mood today.
Why?
Ultraman has begun to be wary of [Nothingness], forged a [Deception] Emissary, and hasn't even admitted his own identity as the [Chaos] Emissary yet...
His every move is blasphemous, so what are you happy about?
Katarro couldn't figure it out, so he could only try to explain it to himself, "Is the answer Ultraman?"
The Temple fell silent. Katarro was startled and realized he had overstepped his bounds. He quickly lowered his head and made no further sound.
Fortunately, Chaos didn't pursue the matter further. After a while, it suddenly spoke up, "Give my regards to Order. I'm leaving."
After saying this, He left.
Katarro breathed a heavy sigh of relief as his Lord of Grace left, but before he could straighten up, he discovered that another being—no, another [Nothingness]—had descended.
A pair of eyes, painted with stars and spirals, opened outside the Temple. Their gaze, piercing as they surveyed Temple chaotic Temple, glanced at the Katarro within, and coldly asked:
"Who are you?"
Katarro felt a jolt of fear; he realized this was a question that could cost him his life.
He cannot answer that he is the Emissary of Chaos, because he is not; but he also cannot answer that he is a puppet Proxy on Emissary, because then Destiny would be angry with him because Chaos is still recruiting His Believer.
Katarro undoubtedly knew about the relationship between the complex Ultraman and "Destiny." Seeing that another of the Ultraman's Lord of Grace had arrived, he suddenly understood why his Lord of Grace had to leave.
That's wonderful; our Lord of Grace has avoided a major battle.
But it's not good either, because this big battle is about to fall on my head.
Katarro, trembling with fear, straightened up and looked at [Destiny], neither Fawning nor humble, carefully considering his words as he replied:
"Praise be to the great [Destiny], my name Katarro, and I am... a servant of [Nothingness]."
Those twinkling eyes instantly turned cold, and he snorted coldly:
"The crime of speaking recklessly!"
When must the servants of [Nothingness] walk in [Chaos]?
Moreover, when did the Nothingness ever have servants?
And whose servant are you?
Katarro gritted his teeth secretly, took a serious gamble, and said, "I am the servant of Lord Ao... Cheng Shi."
"...?"
Those cold eyes glanced at him briefly, then left without saying anything more.
The Katarro saw the "Nothingness" hidden in Nothingness and sat down on the ground, completely losing its usual composure.
This is terrifying. This world truly needs Order. No wonder my Lord of Grace sent me to pay my respects to "Order".
I'll go, I'll go right now!
Today we sing praises for the continued existence of Order in the Cosmos.
Praise... um... praise [chaos]!
