402 Dekan's Conclusion About Everything
The Word Spirit God, Apotos, was as if he had lost the ability to speak.
He did not respond to Dekan's question for a long time.
It wasn't because Gag, but because his mind seemed to have frozen.
Dekan admired the expression on the face of the Word Spirit God.
"How shameful that a god who prides himself on the power of words could be so frightened that he couldn't speak."
He covered his mouth and chuckled softly twice.
"If you had a fan in your hand, leaned back a little, and added a 'Oh ho ho!', it would be even better."
Talomati muttered to himself.
Dekan: "?"
He didn't understand what Talomati was trying to say.
Talomati: "Add the Blood Mimicry, and it's perfect."
Dekan: "So, you're a villainous young lady, aren't you?"
Talomati: "It suits you very well."
Dekan: "Then when I go back to the real world, I'll debut as an actor. Our family agency is already established, and my stage name will be Talomati. Anyway, after I transform, I'll look exactly like you. Watch me turn this face into a professional villainous rich girl... I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Give me some face!"
Now, Talomati no longer needs to seize control of Dekan's body to subdue him.
Instead, they can directly take action to subdue the suspect.
He immediately pinned Dekan to the ground.
Although Dekan had never suffered this injustice.
But no matter how powerful the seventh-tier Dekan is, he can't defeat the ninth-tier Talomati.
The bizarre scene, where it seemed as if the enemies had started fighting at the slightest disagreement, caused the empty eyes of the Word Spirit God to tremble again.
He simply couldn't understand it anymore.
Putting aside the perils of the Chaos God in the Chaos God Realm, why would someone be able to fight their summoned creatures while their own body is completely dominated by them?
"Talomati! You've gone too far! You were the one who provoked me first this time!"
Dekan lay sprawled on the ground, unable to move, shouting angrily.
Talomati sat on Dekan's back, gazing calmly into the air.
"Oh."
After thinking about it, she seemed to realize that she had indeed provoked him first.
There's nothing I can do; I'm used to Dekan's sarcastic remarks, so I assume Dekan was in the wrong first.
So Talomati stood up and released Dekan.
"You definitely have an element of revenge in your heart."
Dekan stood up dejectedly and dusted himself off.
People from the Demon Realm are all so vengeful; it's terrifying.
He felt that the prestige he had just painstakingly established in front of the Word Spirit God had now shattered into nothingness.
However, it's not a big problem.
If it could help the Word Spirit God recover even a little, that would be good.
After all, we still need to communicate with this Word Spirit God for a little while before sending him on his way.
"Based on the results of my interrogation of other Chaos God, as well as the ruins in the Chaos God Realm, I have roughly figured out the ins and outs of many things."
Dekan temporarily lifted the [Gag] spell placed on the Word Spirit God and said to him.
As long as Talomati maintains his suppression of the Word Spirit God and keeps him in his mask, he poses no threat whatsoever.
The Word Spirit God simply stared blankly at Dekan, without replying.
Dekan nodded; he was very satisfied with the state of the Word Spirit God.
An enemy whose mind has been destroyed has not even a trace of stubbornness left.
He silently took out a syringe, a truth serum made by Mie, and injected it into the neck of the Word Spirit God.
Talomati also possesses some techniques he learned ten thousand years ago from the Sincere Purser: using Magic Power fluctuations to detect whether an enemy is lying.
While neither of these methods is necessarily accurate, neither can achieve the 100% accurate judgment of the Abyss Mage Purser or the Imperial General Pritzker.
But he didn't need to interrogate the Word Spirit God afterward, and he didn't even need to ask the Word Spirit God much.
It was merely to verify the information I possessed with him.
"You Chaos God are actually quite pathetic, because you are not true gods at all, but merely products of error."
Dekan stood beside the Word Spirit God and spoke to himself.
However, this sentence no longer stirred any emotion in Apotos, the Word Spirit God.
It was no surprise that Dekan would find out this secret.
After all, seeing the miserable state of the rows of Chaos God in the life support pods, Apotos could imagine how much this human had extracted.
"Although gods did exist countless millennia ago, you are not those gods. The last true god remaining today is the Goddess Tike."
Dekan sighed.
Unfortunately, the Goddess Tike no longer has the power to interfere in the world.
Perhaps in the distant future, which he can't even count on his fingers, the Goddess will regain her power.
Just like the mythical stories that Dekan saw in the Holy Kingdom.
Every sentence is a true account of the history of the Age of Gods.
Once upon a time, there were only gods in this world, and they had not yet created many living beings.
In this empty world, those who are too powerful can only fight constantly to pass the time, or stop to play some small games.
It started with some very basic games, and then evolved into a board game.
Roll the dice to choose the number of steps to move forward, and repeat the cycle.
Even if the road is endless, they can adapt to pausing for a while and then continuing.
Because what they have in abundance is time.
Over time, they created increasingly complex games, and gradually discovered that fighting wasn't just because they wanted to destroy instincts that clashed with their own, but more because the games weren't fun enough.
So they began to unite and pour more effort into their masterpiece.
They created living beings as chess pieces and a world suitable for their survival as the chessboard, and bestowed upon them their many powers as gifts.
What the gods did not anticipate was that this game was far more interesting than they had imagined.
They were unaware that they had become excessively intoxicated by it.
Over time, even the gods could no longer maintain their agreed-upon position of absolute bystander. Starting with the first one, the gods began to participate one after another without stopping.
This is a story recorded in the mythology of the Holy Kingdom.
However, a section is missing here.
It doesn't explain the origin of the Shadow World; it's as if it was erased.
The missing parts of the murals in the Holy Kingdom Temple can all be found in the temples of the Chaos God Realm.
The masterpiece of the gods is far more complex than the world as most living beings understand it.
One destruction, one rebirth—that is a cycle.
What is an incomprehensible length of time for living beings is but a blink of an eye for the gods.
They didn't want each round of the game to end so quickly.
So they transformed the world once again.
The world that sustains living beings is the real world, which they divide into many other worlds that operate in parallel without interfering with each other.
These worlds will not all be destroyed at once, and they are capable of evolving into various different styles.
In addition, they created the Shadow World.
The Shadow World will record various moments in world history, some insignificant, some momentous, some regrettable, and some thought-provoking.
They set rules to send beings from various worlds into the Shadow World, allowing them to reenact historical projections under their guidance.
Once a real world evolves to the point where it has the power to create Shadow World, that real world will connect to the Shadow World.
In the eyes of the gods, these projections of history from other worlds can be considered excellent learning materials.
Cross-learning between different worlds can not only lead to more interesting stories, but also reduce many regrettable endings.
The gods wanted all beings to gain experience and reflection from the historical projections of different worlds, to reduce the repeated foolish mistakes they made, and to make each round of the game last longer.
And so this came about.
The real world and the Shadow World.
A world where reality and shadow intertwine.
