    The renowned author's expression was rather complex, as if seeing her past self, forced to rapidly advance with the abundance of high-level ingredients.

    However, she could pause and take an extended rest, later considering whether to ascend to Sequence 1, while Lumian could not-neither he nor the forces driving him here would allow him to stop.

    The price of what Fate bestows you butwhy
    He could've lived a normal live but got dragged into a Divine War, become an experimental subject, a vessel of Ressurection for some Old Fossils, etc

    His story is as Tragic as Antigonus imo

    Chapter 1098: Him





    Would the terror of the special mirror world possibly bring trouble to the Outer Deities' invasion? Lumian, treading on a wild wind, turned his head to look at Amon. 'What exactly is in the depths of the special mirror world?'

    This was a direct participant who might know something!

    Lumian had no expectation that Amon would certainly answer him, but asking wouldn't cost anything.

    Amon stood steadily in the air, laughing with His usual tone,

    'The embryonic form of the special mirror world was constructed by Bethel, to create a secret, spacious environment unknown to other gods for Tudor's and Cheek's meeting.

    'Tudor wouldn't care whether this matter was seen, but cared about whether it would be known by those who shouldn't know.

    'This is the style of His Imperial Majesty the Blood Emperor.'

    'And then?' Lumian asked cooperatively.

    Including the Termiboros period, he and Amon had already chatted 'casually' several times.

    Amon pressed the monocle in His right eye socket. 'Later, the special mirror world underwent strange changes. Not only me, but Bethel and the others were no longer allowed to enter.

    'His Majesty was fully capable of killing Angels.

    'Afterward, His Majesty became even crazier. Cheek began to claim Herself as the true heir of the original Creator, the first person born in chaos.

    'In the Pale Disaster, Cheek suffered severe damage. For thousands of years, Her condition has been poor. But as a Demoness of Unaging, you should clearly know that for high-ranking Demonesses, this is unlikely to happen. They can quickly resurrect even when met with death, let alone just being severely wounded.'

    Lumian could tell that Amon was intentionally saying these words. His arrival today was certainly not just for receiving the Circle of Inevitability's letter.

    'The true heir of the original Creator...' Lumian recalled the various concepts of the Demoness Sect that Franca had told him, and suddenly made certain associations. 'Shouldn't it be the personas the Oldest One initially split off? And among them, only two are most important and qualified to say this:

    The Celestial Worthy of Heaven and Earth for Blessings and the original God Almighty...'

    Lumian paused, muttering to himself, 'I'm aware that the combination of Tudor and Cheek was actually an arrangement left by the original God Almighty. The one believed in by the Aurora Order was also an object of arrangement, which will bring a destined accident.

    'Moreover, the Demoness of Black said that the Primordial Demoness has five lines of honorific names, of which two are unknown to outsiders.'

    Lumian's current thinking was that if he wanted to obtain more intelligence from Amon, he would have to trade some of his own information.

    Who gets something for free?

    The one in front of him was the expert at free acquisitions, once the top Marauder!

    Before Amon could respond, Lumian added another sentence,

    'The City of Calamity at the top of the Hunter and Demoness pathways was once contained by the original God Almighty.'

    He began to suspect that the great terror of the special mirror world was related to the resurrection of the original God Almighty.

    Amon glanced at him, smiling and saying, 'For such matters, no one dares to confirm without seeing it personally.

    'Initially, when the special mirror world first had anomalies, that zealot already knew something was wrong. The occurrence of the War of the Four Emperors was also Him pushing it from the shadows.

    'He re-established contact with the Chaos Sea more than seven years ago. Although forcibly using the Chaos Sea's power would cause the accommodation progress to regress, compared to those who still have to wait for the Western Continent's seal to be lifted, He shouldn't still be incapable of accomplishing an initial accommodation until today.

    'Guess why He hasn't truly accommodated the Chaos Sea?'

    Are the concerns about the problems hidden in the depths of the special mirror world stopping Him? Does He want a Beyonder qualified to become the Origins of Disaster and Calamity of Destruction not only to cultivate power against the apocalypse but also because the path to the Origins of Disaster must necessarily pass through the depths of the special mirror world, triggering that great terror and presenting it before His eyes? Is part of the previous 'bestowments' cost to be paid here? Lumian thoughtfully said to Amon, 'What else does that individual know about the special mirror world?'

    Amon laughed and shook His head, answering off-topic,

    'Cheek's remaining two honorific names are extremely secretive. Even color-titled high-ranking Demonesses don't all know them. Only those with close connections to Cheek that might trigger divine descent when attacked, truly grasp them.

    'Otherwise, why do you think those two honorific names could remain secret, unknown even to all current Sequence Os? Medici could intimidate the Demoness of White, let alone those more powerful than Her.

    'But that zealot might know something, after all, even the thoughts in one's mind might not be hidden from Him.'

    Is the Demoness of Black one of those with close connections to the Primordial Demoness? She indeed seems special...

    Lumian glanced at Amon and suddenly laughed. 'Using a true god's honorific name in Intisian won't incur divine punishment? Only using Hermes or ancient Hermes languages counts as blasphemy?'

    After all, Cheek wasn't an uncommon name.

    'You only mentioned Hermes and ancient Hermes because you only mastered them?' Amon laughed, 'Using ordinary language to recite a Sequence O's true name will attract attention but not necessarily divine punishment. As for me, guess why my title includes the description Blasphemer?'

    Here, Amon adjusted the monocle in His right eye and looked Lumian up and down for a few seconds.

    He said with an obvious smile, 'Actually, I'm quite looking forward to you entering the depths of the special mirror world.

    Something interesting and unknown will definitely happen, and it's not something that will affect me.

    'Why not give it a shot?'

    'Maybe I'll consider it sometime in the future.' Lumian took on an unconcerned posture.

    'Goodbye, my unacknowledged goddaughter. I hope when I see you next, you haven't truly lost control and gone mad.'

    Amon waved like a human.

    His figure suddenly disappeared.

    Lumian lowered his head and gazed at the azure ocean shrouded in faint mist, activated the black mark on his right shoulder, and returned to the luxurious villa in Trier.

    'How did it go?' Franca and Jenna, who had been waiting, asked in unison.

    'The one called Inevitability sent a message through a Messenger of God,' Lumian told his two companions about the 'letter's' content.

    'The one called Inevitability warned you not to go to the depths of the special mirror world? It feels like a weasel giving its well-wishes to a chicken—there's definitely no good intention,' Franca muttered.

    'Could this be a misdirection?' Jenna frowned. 'But the secrets of the special mirror world's depths related to the Primordial Demoness are indeed dangerous.'

    'Probably not a misdirection,' Lumian recounted his conversation with Amon that he could speak about, then laughed self-mockingly, 'Maybe the one who will save the end times is me, Mr. Fool will hold the fort, preventing those great existences from interfering with me. And when I reach the entrance of the special mirror world, I'll shout to the sky, 'Go back, or I'll face that great terror!'

    'Like the Deterrence Era...' Franca couldn't help but quip.

    Jenna didn't quite agree with Lumian's words. 'Maybe it would only bring trouble to the one called Inevitability, without affecting other great existences.'

    'Do I look like an idiot? Before figuring out what exactly the great terror in the special mirror world's depths is and whether it can deter those great existences, I would never do such a thing,' Lumian teased Jenna.

    After chatting for a while, he took out the special mirror world fragment obtained from the Demoness of Despair Panatiya from the Traveler's Bag and handed it to Franca.

    'From now on, I must try to avoid direct contact with items related to the special mirror world.'

    'Cautious!' Franca gave a thumbs up and praised Lumian.

    She thought for a moment and took out her own special mirror world fragment, handing it to Jenna along with Lumian's.

    'I have the Primordial Demoness's figurine. At critical moments, I must also avoid keeping it together with the special mirror world fragments.'

    'I was just about to remind you,' Jenna smiled and collected the two special mirror world fragments.

    Franca returned the smile and turned to Lumian.

    'We'll put this matter aside for now?'

    She was referring to Louis Gustav's matter. After some time, if this Emperor Party leader returned from Fourth Epoch Trier and the special mirror world, they would leave it to official Beyonders to handle, and notify the Demoness Sect on the side, not getting involved.

    'Yeah.' Lumian nodded. 'In the coming days, besides finding other cultists hidden in Trier and Zaratul's clues, I'll focus on digesting the potion. I might seek Mr. Fool's permission to attempt the acting in a specific scenario for Weather Warlock.

    'Also, I've communicated with Mr. Star and Mr. Moon. If they discover a base of the Rose School of Thought or an armed force belonging to them, they'll immediately notify me. I'll take you to the Southern Continent and launch a small war.'

    The acting of a War Bishop must be completed in a war.

    'Okay.' Franca pointed upstairs. 'So there's nothing else for now?'

    She wanted to continue manufacturing giant robots.

    Lumian didn't respond directly but turned to Jenna and Franca with a smile. 'I heard a very famous circus is touring in Trier.

    Want to go see it together?'

    'Sure.' Jenna looked at Franca.

    Franca hesitated for two seconds. 'Alright.'

    More than a week later.

    Angoulême de Francois put on a brown coat with gold-embroidered threads and walked towards the underground of Saint Vieve Cathedral.

    He and several colleagues were assigned to search for Louis Gustav and Madame Pualis in Fourth Epoch Trier. For this, they needed to hold a ritual, receive the blessing of the Eternal Blazing Sun, to resist the various corruptions existing in the Fourth Epoch Trier within a certain time.

    Even for an Unshadowed, it would be quite dangerous otherwise.

    Another one brought by Hidden Blade... Angoulême sighed inwardly.

    The matter of Louis Gustav and the person suspected to be Pualis meeting in Fourth Epoch Trier was personally reported by him.

    After being assigned to this task, Angoulême had tried to find Hidden Blade in the telegram group multiple times, wanting to complain, but in the past week, Hidden Blade had only been online two or three times, and no one knew what she was busy with.

      All the Angel Kings of ASG had a direct connection with the powers He possessed. Amon, Adam, Medici, Sasrir, Tyrant, Sun, Tower and Ouroboros. The latter was not Unique, so it cannot be said that AG received the Key of Light, but perhaps we do not know something. The CW owned the River of Eternal Darkness and later the Phoenix of Death with the power of the Doorway and the Demonic Wolf with the power of the Fool's Way were born.

    Chapter 1097: A Letter Destined to be Received



    A letter from a great existence? Lumian suddenly laughed, interrupting the old man's words, "I feel that you don't actually exist in this house."

    As Lumian spoke, Franca stepped sideways, moving close to Jenna, with layers of phantom images appearing in her eyes.

    The old man in a crumpled formal suit and thin frame seemed eager to express himself and actually explained his current state to Lumian, "If I believe I exist, and you believe I exist, then I am existing. The reverse is also true."

    Franca felt a bit of a headache, muttering. "Are you talking philosophy?"

    The old man's eyes brightened. "How did you know that my previous, hmm, in your terms, Sequence was called Philosopher?"

    Seriously. A Demoness's spiritual intuition is no joke.... Franca was momentarily stunned.

    Philosopher? Lumian suddenly thought of a secretive organization, an evil god cult: First Philosophy!

    The mental patient who was once disguised as his substitute by I Know Someone was also described as being like a philosopher... Lumian thoughtfully said to the old man, "Midoro's Worship?"

    "Do you know about the Heavenly Domains, the Formless Door?" The old man responded happily, "Have you also experienced immortality?"

    Lumian shook his head, speaking in a flat tone, "No.

    "I've just killed a few Initiates."

    He was provoking, also displaying the arrogance of a Hunter to better act as an Iron-blooded Knight.

    Moreover, discussing immortality and the Formless Door with a Philosopher would likely draw him into his "realm" and imperceptibly cause severe problems.

    The expression on the old man's face instantly disappeared. He looked at Lumian, speaking in a hollow voice, "A great existence wants me to deliver you a letter."

    "Which one?" Before Lumian could ask, he glanced at Franca and Jenna.

    The two Demonesses had silently disappeared from the house, leaving only two makeup mirrors placed on the ground at some point.

    When Lumian first diverted the conversation, Franca had used their proximity to transfer their true bodies through the mirror world via their eyes, leaving only mirror projections!

    Now, they weren't even maintaining the mirror projections.

    They had learned from Lumian that deeply understanding the names and information of great existences would severely corrupt oneself, something mirror projections couldn't block, and even hidden, sleeping mirrors would be affected!

    The old man didn't mind Franca and Jenna's departure, looking at Lumian and saying, "The mighty Circle of Inevitability."

    Circle of Inevitability? He should hate Amon more than me now. What letter is He sending me? Is He trying to carry out counterespionage against me? Why would such a great existence value me... Or is this letter just a medium to harvest my life? Lumian asked the old man with interest, "You're not an Angel, are you? Except for a few, other great existences haven't yet been able to send angelic-level power through the barrier.

    "Can you understand the true names of great existences?"

    In Lumian's view, this old man was at most Sequence 3.

    The old man smiled and replied, "This is the unique characteristic and source of pain for Messengers of God, but also our most powerful ability.

    "Corruption grants us power."

    Sounds quite philosophical. But this ability is indeed special. The Beyonders from the First Philosophy I've encountered were skilled at injecting voices into others' ears or minds. If what they inject are the true names of great existences, who below the angelic level could withstand that? Lumian suddenly felt lucky that he hadn't encountered a Messenger of God before becoming an angel.

    Otherwise, with the various hidden issues in his body, he would absolutely explode at the slightest provocation.

    Or maybe it wasn't luck, but arrangement... As this thought flashed, Lumian self-deprecatingly mused internally.

    With this realization, his blue eyes instantly turned Iron-black.

    He didn't want to receive the Circle of Inevitability's letter. He wanted to find the mystical connection between the old man before him and his true body by investigating overall weaknesses, then blow them both up!

    At that moment, the old man's body suddenly became ethereal.

    A silver-white with black color rose from within him.

    His hollow voice rang out. "Please receive the letter."

    He suddenly condensed, transforming into a silver- white and black light, shooting directly at Lumian.

    In this house, he was the letter, and the letter was him!

    Lumian activated the black mark on his right shoulder and quickly disappeared from the spot.

    He directly teleported to the Fog Sea, far from Trier.

    But the silver-white and black light was still ahead of him, still approaching, not shaken off.

    Lumian didn't hesitate, making layers of phantom images appear in his blue eyes.

    He entered the mirror world.

    The silver-white and black light was still before him, in the illusory dark tunnel, seeming destined to be received by him.

    This was a fate that couldn't be escaped!

    Lumian flashed into another mirror tunnel, and the silver-white and black light once again approached from the front.

    This time, Lumian didn't flee. His eyes quickly turned silver-black.

    Eye of Calamity!

    Although his Inevitability power hadn't further improved, thanks to his Weakness Investigation ability now reaching angelic level, the Eye of Calamity formed by merging this ability with Inevitability power naturally had some enhancement.

    Since he couldn't escape, he'd try to eliminate this letter from the destiny plane!

    Soon, Lumian saw the quietly surging mercury-colored illusory long river and saw the scene of himself catching the silver-white and black light.

    It existed in almost all destiny branches.

    In other words, Lumian saw his future of receiving the "letter", a destiny that was bound to unfold.

    The only variable was a branch that didn't include this future, extremely marginal and chaotic, very difficult to push with his current abilities.

    Lacking necessary preconditions!

    In the blink of an eye, Lumian saw another scene.

    In the image, the recipient of the "letter" was not only himself but also Amon, wearing a black robe, monocle, and a pointed soft hat.

    Clang!

    Lumian suddenly heard an ethereal clang crossing through thick history.

    A scene naturally emerged in his mind: the thin-faced Amon, wearing a monocle, stood in the bell tower, pushing the bell hammer to strike the great bell.

    With this sound, an ancient, mottled massive stone clock appeared.

    It was a phantom, its face divided into unequal twelve sections by intersecting dark blue and gray-white, each section with different symbols representing different times.

    Three jointed, semi-transparent small worms formed the clock's hands.

    As they stopped moving, an indescribable invisible torrent surged out, seemingly freezing the silver-white and black light within.

    Lumian, not within the affected range, heard a familiar voice with a hint of laughter, "Do you know the main ability of a Sufferer?"

    Before Lumian could respond, the voice answered itself, "Reproducing the suffering one has experienced onto the target."

    As the words fell, the silver-white and black light frozen in time broke through its restraints, again flying towards Lumian.

    But waiting for it was an extraordinarily intense, unimaginable sea of light.

    A supernova seemed to have erupted, erupting on a small scale.

    This mirror world instantly collapsed, accompanied by the silent shattering of numerous mirrors.

    Of course, this was far from a true supernova explosion, merely a kind of simulated reproduction.

    Although Lumian was outside the range, his body also shattered, re-forming outside the mirror world.

    At this moment, in his Eye of Calamity, the preconditions for pushing destiny to the marginal branch were satisfied.

    Lumian didn't hesitate to release nearly half his spirituality from his left palm, letting the mercury- colored river of fate's water flow into the corresponding branch.

    Everything calmed down.

    Lumian was about to turn his head and look at Amon, who had appeared beside him at some point, when tiny silver-white and black lights suddenly emerged in the void, forming a paragraph of text.

    Though the Circle of Inevitability's letter couldn't be directly delivered to him and Amon, it inevitably revealed itself.

    The text was very complex, but it didn't prevent Lumian from directly deciphering its meaning.

    "Stay away from special mirror worlds, or you're destined to lose control and go mad."

    Huh? Lumian was somewhat stunned.

    Is this a warning?

    The Circle of Inevitability didn't try to corrupt or smite me, but instead warned me?

    Is He trying to betray the other Outer Deities?

    Surprised, Lumian focused on the phrase "lose control and go mad".

    He then recalled the prophecy of the Post-Apocalyptic Scripture and the future self he seemed to have seen during the Hostel incident.

    Do all prophecies about my future revolve around the words 'going crazy'? Lumian silently muttered to himself.

    Amon, standing mid-air in some inexplicable manner. slightly disappointedly shook His head. "If it's not a letter for me, why ask me to receive it?"

    "Perhaps you'll also lose control and go mad by entering the special mirror world," Lumian tried to interpret the hidden meaning of the Circle of Inevitability's words.

    Saying this, he stopped.

    He remembered the "young man" beside him, wearing a monocle, was once a top Cryptologist.

    Amon smiled in agreement. "That's possible.

    "But I can indeed avoid entering special mirror worlds. Can you?"

    Lumian wanted to answer yes, but given the entanglement of destiny, his unique pathway, and various other prerequisites, he felt he would inevitably enter the special mirror world, enter the depths of Fourth Epoch Trier, and could only hope to delay this as much as possible until fully prepared.

    "Why would the Circle of Inevitability want to warn me?" Lumian asked habitually.

    Amon adjusted His monocle, laughing. "Did that old fellow also designate me as a recipient to help you decrypt?"

    He continued, His tone laced with laughter, "The interpretation is that entering a special mirror world indeed poses a risk of you losing control and going mad, and this might bring unknown risks to those old fellows."
