Volume 9, Chapter 18 – Vynert

The woman before her possessed an almost flawless face, her eyes vast like a starry sky, yet at the same time radiating a light called wisdom.

Not only that, her entire body emitted an aura that naturally made others feel a sense of closeness toward her.

“Nice to meet you.”

The woman whom Weilan addressed as the “Goddess” smiled warmly at Samael.

“I’m Samael. I am the master of this world, and also the Goddess who Weilan has always spoken of.”

“Goddess…”

Hearing the Goddess refer to herself that way, Samael still harbored doubts in her heart.

However, there was no mistaking the aura emanating from the “Goddess” before her, an aura even more dangerous than a Throne-tier existence. Not only that… Samael also sensed a lethal threat to her life from it.

That meant that if the Goddess before her held any hostility toward her, she would undoubtedly be killed instantly.

“That’s right. But you don’t have to be so formal and call me Goddess. Just call me by my name.”

“Name?”

The Goddess’s words made Samael feel puzzled.

But what the Goddess said next confirmed Samael’s doubts and turned them into shock.

“My name is actually something you all know. In the beginning, I was called the Creation Dragon. Later, I was respectfully addressed by my juniors as the Creation Dragon God. Well, those were all my past names. As for now, just call me Vynert.”

“Vin…ert?”

Rеаⅾ оn KatRеadinɡСαfе

Creation Dragon God… Vynert?

“Wait… you’re the Creation Dragon God?”

The moment she realized it, Samael couldn’t help but cry out in surprise.

“That’s right, little one. I am the Creation Dragon God. Of course, there’s no need to be overly shocked. What I’m about to tell you next is what should really surprise you.”

Such cryptic words made Samael feel somewhat helpless. Of course, if the one before her was the Creation Dragon God, Samael wouldn’t say anything unnecessary.

“You should be mentally prepared. Because what I’m about to tell you concerns you, and also Tianyin.”

“Xiaoyin? Wait, Dragon God… you know Xiaoyin?”

The Creation Dragon God’s words made Samael immediately feel that she seemed to know Tianyin.

Of course, that could have been an illusion.

However, the Creation Dragon God’s words unexpectedly confirmed Samael’s guess.

“That’s right. I do know Tianyin. By the way, Tianyin’s name was given by me back then.”

Tianyin’s name was given by the Creation Dragon God?

Wait?

At this moment, Samael couldn’t quite figure it out.

She had already been residing within Tianyin’s body long ago, and during that time, Samael had learned quite a bit about Tianyin.

But from what she knew from Tianyin, the origin of Tianyin’s name had nothing to do with the Goddess before her.

But if it was the Creation Dragon God who gave Tianyin her name, wouldn’t that mean Tianyin had already existed a very long time ago?

However, just by looking at Tianyin’s age, one could tell that she wasn’t very old at all, and hadn’t even reached adulthood…

“Are you wondering how Tianyin could be so young and yet know me?”

While Samael was making her guesses, the Creation Dragon God Vynert smiled and spoke.

“Yes… that question does exist.”

Having her thoughts seen through by the Goddess, Samael naturally had no intention of hiding it and spoke directly.

“Goddess… Vynert, I want to know. Did Xiaoyin really know you a very long time ago?”

“She did.”

Seeing the wavering expression on Samael’s face, Vynert smiled elegantly.

“Goddesses never lie to others. Besides, you’ve probably already noticed some of the abnormalities surrounding Tianyin, haven’t you?”

“Abnormalities… what do you mean?”

“You actually know very well in your heart. For example, at the very beginning, how did Tianyin know that Lucifa possessed the power of Pride? That question has always been the one that confused you the most, hasn’t it? Although Tianyin gave you an explanation back then…”

“But with your intuition, could you really not tell whether the reason Tianyin gave you at that time was genuine?”

Rеаd οn ΚαtReаԁingСαfе

Indeed.

At that time, Samael had actually harbored doubts for a moment regarding the source of Tianyin’s information about Pride.

However, out of trust in Tianyin, she had simply buried the matter in her heart and chosen to forget it.

But even if she subconsciously chose to ignore it, memories of past doubts still existed. And the moment Vynert brought it up, Samael recalled those questions she once had.

“Right? And there are many, many more.”

“Why did Tianyin harbor an inexplicable hostility toward that outsider named Yunchou?”

“And why was Tianyin sometimes able to obtain information out of nowhere?”

“Although she explained these things to you, those explanations still had flaws, didn’t they?”

Without a doubt… Samael could not deceive Tianyin, but Tianyin could deceive Samael.

“No… Xiaoyin couldn’t possibly lie to me… and I had always…”

“You had always been residing within her body, so you think Tianyin couldn’t deceive you? But then how do you explain the fact that at the very end, when you left Tianyin, your five senses were blocked by her?”

“But… what use was there for Xiaoyin to do that?”

“Of course there was a use. After all, the power of the Original Sins was originally her power to begin with. And this awakening of hers was, plainly speaking, a process of reclaiming her power.”

“Awakening?”

Once again, Samael caught onto a key word in Vynert’s words.

“It seems you’ve pretty much understood it already. That’s right. This time, Tianyin was actually awakening. She had no memories of before at all, so in your eyes, Tianyin at that time was like a blank sheet of paper.”

“Innocent, adorable, kind, and sometimes adorably foolish. At that time, she was like an angel. But her true purpose was completely different from what you felt and saw.”

“So… it’s to destroy the world?”

This was something Weilan had already mentioned before.

Even so, Samael still couldn’t understand why Tianyin would awaken only to destroy the world.

“Very confused? Can’t figure out why Tianyin wants to destroy the world?”

Seeing the confusion in Samael’s eyes at a glance, Vynert continued speaking calmly.

“Actually, everything is very simple. Because Tianyin is not a person of this world.”

“Not of this world?”

“That’s right. When I first met her, I had already perceived her essence.”

“At that time, her soul had become extremely thin, so thin that at first I thought she had no soul at all. She had no emotions either, and seemed to be nothing more than a doll acting on instinct.”

“That was her original self. A girl from another world who existed solely to carry out her mission.”
