Volume 8, Chapter 8 – Future

The essence of the End was opposed to the Supreme.

According to Father, the End meant the end of order.

And the Supreme was the spokesperson and guardian of order.

The two could not be compatible, and could not appear at the same time.

This was the only method Father had envisioned that could allow the world to continue existing forever.

But…

Even if Father thought so, he could not have imagined that sometimes, the more you feared something happening, the more that thing would happen.

The future should not be peered into in the first place.

And the future was also irreversible.

And in reality, the future where the world was destroyed was a future. The future where Father created the Supreme was also a future.

And these two were both the future. Even though there were contradictions between them, they did not conflict.

In the end…

Father felt despair about saving the world.

And at the most helpless moment, Father chose a method that I never expected, and that also left me incomparably shocked, and incomparably despairing.

“Become the End, my child…”

Those were the words my most revered Father said to me with his own mouth.

Rеаⅾ οn KαtRеαԁіոgСаfe

Become the End, my child.

And then.

Give up all resistance… and be killed by me.

Father… if this is your wish. If this is the future you are hoping for.

I… can do it…

……

Earlier, an accidental conversation with Samael made Tianyin think of a way to deal with Inferno’s army.

Split them internally, make the Demons fall into infighting themselves.

Without a doubt, this was a genius idea. However, right after the plan was thought up, Tianyin stopped moving again.

『Then… how do we make the Demons start slaughtering each other?』

Without a doubt, even though the goal was already clear, Tianyin still did not have a concrete plan for how to carry it out.

Of course, in order to promote the plan’s implementation as soon as possible, Tianyin also planned to gather ideas from everyone, summoning the commanders of the Northern Fortress to collectively discuss this matter.

However, what left Tianyin helpless was that although Tianyin’s plan sounded perfect, the specific method of implementation became an obstacle in everyone’s hearts that was hard to cross.

『What do we do… Samael…』

Rubbing her brow in annoyance, Tianyin could not help letting out a sigh.

Rеаd оո ΚatReαⅾiոɡСafе

『It’s just intensifying contradictions, but what kind of method should we use…』

Although contradictions were part of emotions, and Tianyin’s power of Lust could also influence these Demons’ emotions.

But…

The power of Lust could only amplify or reduce those feelings toward Tianyin. As for other feelings, Tianyin was powerless.

After all, to stir up conflict between Demons, logically all Tianyin needed to do was activate her power of Lust and provoke hatred between those existences.

But what Tianyin could amplify was the Demons’ desire for her.

So, if Tianyin really went to amplify those Demons’ desire, then maybe in the next second, countless Demons would charge at her without caring about their lives.

So, wouldn’t that be trying to steal a chicken and losing the rice instead?

Therefore, it was not that Tianyin had never thought about using the power of Original Sin to trigger Demons slaughtering each other, but that it was simply unrealistic.

「Xiaoyin. Even if you ask me, I can’t think of any good method right away…」

Toward Tianyin’s plea for help, Samael also sighed helplessly.

「I don’t have any good method for this either, and the idea was yours in the first place. At a time like this, you can only think about what to do next yourself, right?」

『Wuu…』

Hearing Samael’s words, Tianyin could not help letting out a cute wail.

『Samael, you’re so mean… But I really don’t have any good ideas.』

『If only Sister Xiaomu were here. If it was Sister Xiaomu, she’d definitely know what to do.』

Rеаd οո ΚаtRеαԁіոɡCаfе

Even though she said that, Tianyin still understood that at this moment, it was impossible for her to rely on Sister Xiaomu.

After all, Sister Xiaomu had already left Dawn, and nobody knew what she went to do.

「Mm, Xiaoyin, you can’t give up right now. In my eyes, you’re not someone who gives up easily. We’ve gotten through so many difficulties, so when would you ever shrink back because of a mere problem?」

Sometimes, Samael liked teasing Tianyin, but at certain times, Samael was still a very reliable existence.

Just like right now, when Tianyin felt discouraged, Samael did not speak to hit her, instead using the gentlest voice she could to comfort Tianyin.

A Samael like this was undoubtedly a perfect “virtuous wife” to Tianyin.

They always said that behind a successful man stood an outstanding woman. But sometimes, behind a successful loli, maybe there also stood an outstanding girl…

『Mmhm, Samael, I definitely won’t give up. It’s just a mere problem, watch me beat it down!』

Samael’s words were very useful. At the very least, Tianyin had now reignited her surging fighting spirit again!

However, fighting spirit was fighting spirit, Tianyin still had no clue at all about how to provoke contradictions between Demons.

『If nothing unexpected happens, Inferno’s army will fall into infighting in these next few days…』

……

While Tianyin was thinking of methods, in the distant Kingdom’s Storm City, Yunchou, as a Throne-tier, was drinking tea and leisurely reading the book in his hand.

While muttering to himself, Yunchou’s eyes also slowly narrowed.

“If I stop it, I can gain a trace of the Abyssal Lord’s favor. But it doesn’t do much good for the final plan, and it might even be a net loss.”

Rеаԁ οn КαtReаⅾіnɡСαfе

“But… if I don’t warn the Abyssal Lord, and instead let Tianyin do as she pleases, then after Inferno’s internal chaos, it will be the true great war.”

“And this is the predetermined future, nothing will deviate from the tracks.”

“Even if that’s what I say, when the time comes, maybe things will develop to an irreparable degree…”

As a reborn one who had been reborn countless times, Yunchou could be said to know extremely clearly what would happen in the future.

But… precisely because of the future scenes, Yunchou also became hesitant.

“Even if it’s irreparable, maybe there will still be a thread of hope.”

“And what I need to do is kill you…”

The image of Tianyin surfaced in his mind, and Yunchou took a shallow sip of the tea in his hand.

“The End. Seven Original Sins, Dragon of the End.”

“Ascension Plan.”

“And… Immortality…”

“Sometimes, pursuing perfection too much is also a net loss… On the road of pursuit, you’re destined to keep losing things.”

“This kind of future, I absolutely must not let it happen…”

After letting out a faint sigh, Yunchou stopped muttering to himself. Then he silently looked at the book in his hand.
