Chapter 248 The Unforgettable Thing
"Player Super Justice ()"
If Annan hadn't heard from Henry Worden, the saint of sacrifice—[The One Who Opposes Himself], about the greatest mystery of the Lady of Silence, the Lady of Mystery, and the Lady of the Cup, he wanted to crack this nightmare, maybe It really takes some brains.
However, Annan happened to know the secret.
——The mysterious lady was the daughter of the cup-bearing woman "Cybele" who was born but not yet born, and dedicated her womb to "Night".
It is precisely because of this sacrifice ceremony that the mysterious lady who is the god of the ritual was born... It is precisely because the "night" has given a part of the power to the mysterious lady, and he has been downgraded from the "night" to a god.
This happened in a time when mountains, rivers and rivers were not yet born.
As the first flesh and blood life in the world, Cybele was able to let the way of "blood and lust" pass through the earth after completing this sacrifice. Since then, new life has been born.
And the "Secret of Creation" that this secret describes, the timeline is after the secret about "Winter".
——The word "winter" was born before the birth of the four seasons, and even before the birth of light and fire. It was originally used to describe the stillness of the sky like a dying old man when the earth was born;
The earth here refers to the mother-in-law who was buried at the beginning of the world. And the sky that is "without light and fire" and "as quiet as a dying old man" naturally refers to the "dark night".
Because light and fire have not yet been born, naturally there is no distinction between day and night. The sky without light is the so-called "dark night".
That's why, here only the rites of burial and the silent lady have an effect. And why did the mother-in-law respond so quickly...
"Because here, the correct name of the buried mother-in-law is... [Earth]."
—If there is day, there will be night; if there is earth, there will be sky.
"Ai Lei" stood in the pure and warm darkness, looked at the three rotating runes, and said calmly:
"Things have to be told from the very beginning. I think, Elle, you should also be able to perceive that this world is created with you and Lord Skeleton as the core, supplemented by the 'desire' of everyone else.
"Then you should be able to figure out why the world will loop indefinitely and stay on this day."
[…Is it because I am afraid that my mother will come home and want to see such a cheerful Amos? 】
Without much time to think about it, Ailei replied from the bottom of Annan's heart.
The girl's voice was full of guilt and hesitation.
Obviously, she herself has long thought about it.
【If it weren't for me... 】
"—You're wrong, Elle. It's not this thing that you fear."
Annan asserted.
His pupils shone a little in the pure darkness.
That is the light called [Understanding].
"Ai Lei" was silent for a while, but still sighed.
She whispered, "Perhaps even you forgot...you're not Elle Morrison, you're not Elle Buckle. You're Elle Angelo.
"Your real name is... Angelo."
- Ellie is already dead.
"Joseph told me that Angelo was sealed in the Frozen Water Harbor by them. And the nightmare of the gallery is what Angelo left behind after the death of the 'son of God'. Alley repeated it 1,834 times. A tragic grievance."
"From the very beginning, you were the daughter of Duke Bone."
Elle is just a mortal.
After she dies, there is no soul. Only the Bronze rank extraordinary can have a smoke-like soul, the silver rank extraordinary can turn the condensed soul into droplets, and the golden rank can have a crystalline solid soul.
Even demons cannot extract "corporeal" souls from mortal corpses.
The reason why Bone Lord can keep Elle's soul is because when she was still alive... Amos traded her to Bone Lord,
And by absorbing the curse in the gallery's nightmare, Ellie's spiritual body finally took shape.
So here comes the question.
Since the formation of the gallery has nothing to do with Elle... Then what is the relationship between Angelo and Elle?
A memory that had not yet turned yellow flashed past Annan's eyes.
That was after "Angelo", who was a meat ball, turned into a baby girl weighing seven or eight pounds in the blink of an eye.
"—what shall I call you?"
At that time, Annan asked softly, "Master Bone? Angelo? Or... Elle?"
"—You can call me Elle... Annan. This is the power I entrusted to you, for the sake of you staying with me until the end and watching my birth."
The baby girl in front of Annan made a girlish voice: "And my real name is Angelo.
"—The Angel of Betrayal... Bone Lord's daughter, Angelo."
The one who signed the holy deed with Annan was the dead Ellie... or, in other words, the newborn "Angelo".
And now this innocent girl who doesn't know anything...
She just thought she was Angelo of "Ai Lei".
Just like the man who thought he was "Nicholas II", the man who had the memory of Nicholas.
"...Obviously, you have forgotten the pain. But I have to help you remember it."
"Ai Lei" narrated.
But in Annan's heart, the real Alley said nothing.
She didn't respond, as if she had disappeared.
Annan just said to himself: "As long as you are sure, you are Angelo and not Alley... Another fact has emerged.
"Why does Duke Bone need you as a half-body of a god? Why can you help him complete the truth of betrayal, and what is the meaning of your existence?"
The Bone Lord is a gifted ritualist.
He has been able to prove his talent by being able to detect the loopholes in the sublimation ritual and create a new ritual that does not require the necessary step of the [prototype of truth].
Then, the meaning of the existence of "Ai Lei"...
"You may not know that the mysterious lady is the daughter of the woman holding the cup."
Annan said suddenly.
【……what? 】
This big news made Allie couldn't help being shocked and couldn't hold back any longer.
"Yes. The mysterious lady is the unborn daughter of the woman holding the cup. She dedicated her daughter and her womb to the night, and obtained the power of the [Holy Grail]. The night gave her power to the unborn. Half of the born baby gave her existence, gave her truth...
"Night is Lady Silence."
——What is the so-called half body of God?
By now.
The truth has been revealed.
"It's not your mother that you fear. Or rather, it's not the mother of 'Elly', 'Ms. Clara'. It's the 'mother' of [your]—your creator, Duke Bone.
"When the skeleton returns, you will be offered as a sacrifice to the night. Become the 'mysterious lady' of this world, complete the whole world...and stay in this world forever.
"And the Bone Lord will use the power of the 'cup' to achieve a body of flesh and blood, freeing him from the body of the undead that he hates most."
- This is the way to go.
After abandoning the truth of "bones", the skeleton man no longer has the power of "bones" to support his existence. He must regain his physical body in order to exist in the world.
And he hated the undead... At the very beginning, he only transformed himself into the undead so that the tragedy would not repeat itself.
"That white armor... is the proof of the old paladin."
Annan recounted: "That's why the skeleton will always wear it."
This nightmare, in fact, is completely identical in structure to the sporozoite mill.
"Spider" Grover and "Little Bear" Alice, respectively, control half of the special nature of the nightmare. Alice tried her best to use the power of "Dream" to keep the purifier away from the "cobweb", but there was nothing she could do...
And in this nightmare, it was "Ai Lei", or rather... Angelo, who dominated.
As long as she doesn't want to, this nightmare will never come the next day;
In this way, the real Skeleton Duke will not return.
But it also means that the nightmare will keep repeating throughout the day.
And the part that the skeleton is responsible for... is "everyone fulfill their duties and live a peaceful life following their own way of life".
Just like the kingdom he once ruled in the world - the Principality of Eternal Life.
But the difference from that is...
Bone Lord, do not want them to die so easily.
"That is... a god who is full of hatred for the world. Not only was he betrayed by everyone, but he was also betrayed by the people."
Annan whispered: "It is only [remembered] by everyone, but has no meaning...'things that are not forgotten'."
Its name is—
Eternal life.
