Before entering the Mysterious Circle, Han Su remembered a girl he had met in the library. She had long hair and a pure, pretty face. She had told him that gods existed; humanity had merely erased all traces of their existence.
As long as people believed, the gods would return to take revenge on humanity. Only by refusing to believe, by completely forgetting them, could the gods be sealed within history.
Looking back now, that was naturally nothing more than an arrogant lie.
Yet, in a certain sense, that lie had now become the decisive move.
History was blank!
So whatever people believed history contained, history would contain.
If people believed in the existence of an emperor, then an emperor existed in history, and this generation of civilization had been founded by that emperor.
Some things had been changed forever.
Han Su looked at the two enormous faces on the screen, at the satisfied sneers on the faces of the two smartest and most ambitious men in the world, and for a moment, a complicated emotion rose within him.
These two were the greatest masterminds behind the Ancient Castle Kidnapping Case. One had proposed the Divine Descent Plan, while the other had strongly supported and advanced it. Both deserved to die.
But the abilities they had displayed now could not help but earn a measure of admiration.
Most importantly, this final decision had not been part of their original plan. It had changed along the way.
During the implementation of the Divine Descent Plan, Grotesque Doctor had realized the existence of "gods"—or rather, "knightly will." He had discovered that there was something wrong with the "Emperor" sequence, and so he had changed his mind on the spot and entered the lower-level hard drive to explore its greatest secret.
