Volume 9, Chapter 7 – Destruction Is Correction

World annihilation.

Although it is nothing more than pure destruction, in the eyes of beings that possess life, thought, and a sense of self, such an act is no different from evil.

However, to Tianyin at this moment, destroying a world was correction.

Within the rules of Chaos, worlds were as numerous as grains of sand in a sea. And if worlds were allowed to give birth to self awareness, allowed to freely devour other worlds, then that itself was undoubtedly another form of destruction.

Therefore, Tianyin’s existence was to correct this phenomenon, to stop such occurrences from happening.

Destroying one world in order to save tens of thousands of worlds, how could that not also be a form of salvation?

Despite having no emotions and relying solely on absolute rationality to think, it was precisely because emotions did not interfere that Tianyin believed this was correct.

Of course.

Before becoming fused with the End and the System, Tianyin subconsciously feared becoming like this. But when she truly entered this state, she finally understood that what she felt was not fear.

She was actually running away.

Within Chaos, the concept of time had already become blurred.

And because time could not be calculated, Tianyin herself did not even know how long she had lived.

Before encountering the Creation Dragon, how many worlds had she passed through. Even Tianyin herself had never counted.

The number of worlds she had personally destroyed was simply far too many. Once upon a time… her past self did in fact possess emotions.

But… when she personally destroyed one beautiful world after another in her eyes, gradually, she actively abandoned emotions and retained only rationality to think.

Yes… that endless, inexplicable emptiness in her heart, as if she had no soul at all, was something she herself had caused.

At the very beginning, she possessed emotions. In the first world she encountered, her innocent self even had beings known as friends.

But… when she stood alone against everyone, and personally destroyed the world her friends loved. Even though she knew clearly that what she did was correct, she still felt pain.

The rules of Chaos could never be wrong. The only thing wrong was that she possessed emotions.

As an Enforcer born from Chaos, she should not have been swayed by a heart filled with pain.

Yet the more worlds she destroyed, the heavier that pain became.

Even after abandoning emotions and retaining only rationality to think, what she obtained was not the satisfaction of completing her mission, but that endless sense of emptiness…

“So… was that why my later self planned to abandon the past and wanted to survive in this world?”

Forcibly stripping away the obsession with “correction” within rationality. Only by doing this could she stop her own uncontrollable instinctive behavior.

Then separating her power and using the entire world created by the Creation Dragon as a seal. At that time, she genuinely wanted to be an ordinary person who knew nothing at all…

Yes, her past self succeeded.

She stripped away the instinct of “correcting the world” and stripped away her own power.

Not only that, she also stripped away the memories of her former self as an “Enforcer”.

Thus, her newly blank self was born. With the help of the Creation Dragon, she lived an ordinary life in this world over and over again.

But even so, she still failed.

The “correction” instinct she had forcibly stripped away continued to operate. Although the world was isolated from Chaos, the world itself had been born within Chaos.

Therefore, under the operation of the “correction” instinct itself, Chaos forcibly intervened, ultimately heavily injuring the Creation Dragon that created the world.

Originally, even if the Creation Dragon faced Chaos’ forced intervention, she should not have been heavily injured. But Chaos’ target was not the Creation Dragon, it was her powerless self at that time.

At that moment… Chaos’ purpose was to format her, this degenerated “Enforcer”, and then recreate a new Enforcer.

It was precisely to protect Tianyin at that time that the Creation Dragon was heavily injured. And although Tianyin did not die, she was directly affected by the battle and fell into deep sleep.

And all of this gave the “correction” instinct an opportunity.

It tempted the Dragon of the End, causing it to become the later mentally unstable Abyssal Lord.

After the two worlds collided later on, it proactively became the medium of everything in the world, using that to become the so-called System Hub.

It created the game, then forcibly revived the main body, implanted fabricated memories, and guided the main body onto the path of “correction”.

All of this continuously surfaced within Tianyin’s mind after her memories were restored.

Her past self had indeed suffered. Her present self also did not actually like this state.

When she did not like something, it did not mean she would develop feelings of hatred. This directly preset mission of “correction” passively urged Tianyin to keep moving forward on the path of destroying worlds.

Powerless to stop it.

And unable to stop it.

Between the forced intervention of Chaos itself and the interference of her own “correction” instinct, Tianyin already knew that she could no longer stop destroying worlds and “correcting” Chaos.

It was like a curse that would never cease. Tianyin could not break free from it, nor could she hope that someone would help her escape it.

Bearing such a fate was something Tianyin ought to do.

She could no longer run away.

This was her final choice.

Facing endless emptiness and pain at last. These were things she should have borne in the first place.

After all, she had destroyed one civilization loved world after another. Although her original intention was to prevent other worlds from being destroyed, the worlds she destroyed with her own hands undeniably existed. No matter how she tried to escape it, she could not escape this fact.

In truth, her hands had long been stained with blood.

This was something she should have understood long ago.

As for separating Samael from her body at the very end and granting her a true body, that was actually the last thing Tianyin could do.

Even though the world would be destroyed, before she destroyed the world herself, at least she wanted to do something… do something that could save herself…

Even if that something seemed so insignificant.

“…”

She traversed through a star, surrounded by rolling “flames”.

Because she had imposed rules upon herself, even though the surrounding temperature reached tens of thousands, Tianyin was still unaffected.

However, as Tianyin drew closer to the stellar core, the Light Orb in her hand began to show signs of melting.

And would such signs appearing not mean that Tianyin’s calculations were not wrong?

“The persecution of the Hub will accelerate the fusion of the worlds. If nothing unexpected happens, the time of complete fusion will be ten days later.”

“The descent of the World Will during fusion will occur, but the location will be…”

“It will be…”

While carrying the Light Orb and moving through space, she calculated the next location where the World Will would appear.

However, Tianyin’s voice paused for a brief moment at this instant.

Translator Note

Confused? Same, LOL!

Anyway, since the Creation Dragon’s gender had been revealed in the previous volume, I changed the pronouns from “it” to “she” for the Creation Dragon.
