Chapter 1070: Chapter 406: The King of Terror Descends from the Heavens
After Aleister was well-fed and quenched, Inspector Webber planned to escort this terrifying young lady ho.
——After all, given Aleister’s identity, if sothing happened after she left his side… he would be in big trouble if followed up on.
He absolutely could not afford that responsibility. Not only could he not afford it, but even dragging out his boss and his boss’s boss wouldn’t be enough to fill the gap…
In one’s middle years, it is best to seek stability above all.
To prevent any mishaps along the way, Inspector Webber even made a call to arrange a car and driver from the bureau to take Aleister back.
Aleister, with her eyes squinted, curled up in the back seat, casually chatting with Inspector Webber, who was also seated in the back.
“Have you heard?”
Inspector Webber, while fiddling with his phone, casually ntioned: “About that doomsday prophecy the Demon Followers talk about.”
“Doomsday prophecy?”
Aleister pondered briefly, then shook her head: “I might have heard it, but I didn’t pay much attention… What prophecy?”
“It says that in July 1999, a King of Terror will descend from the heavens… I don’t rember the rest. In short, following that, a god will rule the world under the guise of happiness. Places in Calot were quite chaotic last month, with many people preparing for disaster.”
“…Rule the world under the guise of happiness, how does that relate to the end of the world?”
Aleister was sowhat puzzled: “Isn’t happiness good? If they’re ruling the world, doesn’t that imply the world will continue on?”
“Don’t know, who cares — those Demon Followers have been crazy not just for a year or two. Anyway, July is already past.”
Inspector Webber laughed lightheartedly: “It’s already August now, and we haven’t seen any sign of that ‘King of Terror’, have we? Maybe they just made it all up…”
Just then, the earth suddenly transmitted an abnormal fluctuation.
A wave of invisible shock swept through, causing every tree on the street to rustle loudly in an organized and violent noise.
All electronic devices malfunctioned instantaneously, even Inspector Webber’s phone screen went dark. So cars slowed down abruptly, and all the traffic lights on the streets malfunctioned — either all were lit or all were out, and the electronic billboards on the street corners flickered erratically.
In that instant, Aleister sat up straight in the back.
Others might not feel it… but she felt an extrely strong Power of Transcendence piercing through her spine at that mont.
She couldn’t stop trembling, twitching slightly in the car — that sensation was like hitting a funny bone, waves of warmth, numbness, and uncomfortable electric currents suddenly spreading to her extremities.
What was… that?
Aleister’s eyes suddenly widened.
This feeling, she had experienced it before —
Whether it was the Banquet Celestial or the Winter Celestial’s ascension, such phenona that affected the entire world had occurred.
Was it the ascension of so Celestial Marshal?
But that seed off…
Apart from this “world-class electronic malfunction” brought on by the invisible shockwaves, nothing else seed to have happened.
——Could it be so kind of “BUG Celestial Marshal” ascending?
But at that mont, the entire world suddenly ca to a halt.
The mont Aleister saw the question in the car, her pupils constricted.
She flung open the car door and stepped straight out.
The question was: “Who is the King of Terror?”
Three choices were given below:
——”Endless Knot,” “Fallen Celestial Marshal,” “Shadowy Celestial Marshal.”
One Pillar God, two Celestial Marshals.
In an instant, all the previous inconsistencies surged to her mind.
Aleister rembered clearly…
The foster father once told Aiwass that the “evolution” Path of the future was the Serpent Celestial Marshal seizing the strength of the Fallen Celestial Marshal through the Ring of Ouroboros ritual. Demons on the transcendence Path disintegrate and are reborn, their powers rging with the Fairy Kingdom and transforming into elental spirits of the six major elents… An “Elentalist” is not a Mage who manipulates the strength of elents, but rather resembles a Shaman who serves or commands elental spirits.
——Those elental spirits are actually those demons; Elentalists are still Demon Scholars, except that what they study is no longer Demonology, but Elentalism.
It’s like a company replacing its top executives, and after the new leadership lands, a group of employees are let go.
Afterward, the company shifts its operational direction, abolishing previous rules and projects. The employees are still the sa, as are the clients, but everyone starts over from scratch.
Because the new leadership brought substantial investnt, the company’s situation imdiately improved, and performance requirents were no longer so strict… so the workload for every team below decreased, and welfare benefits all improved accordingly.
Then the new leadership brought over a batch of mid-level managers from their previous company—these are the Alchemists of the Fourth Level and above, and they recruited a group of new employees attracted by the new benefits. Naly, newcors who start from scratch learning the Extraordinary Skill of an Elentalist.
But now…
Inspector Webber has ntioned several tis that “Demon Followers” still exist and are troubleso. And their na has changed to Demon Followers, not Demon Scholars—this ans the Fallen Celestial Marshal still exists and has made his demonic faith public.
No longer collecting souls in secret and cultivating Demon Scholars like Serpent Father did, but openly preaching!
And in this world, there is also an “Elental Emperor” of the sa Level as the Eternal Pope… which ans, they’re all at the Sixth Power Level.
The Sixth Power Level represents an unreachable limit for humans, indicating this world has not experienced the Ring of Ouroboros ritual.
But if the Fallen Celestial Marshal isn’t dead, then from where does the power of the Elentalists co?
Besides, there are other paradoxes—these are pieces of information tapped out during a conversation between Aleister and Inspector Webber.
For instance, Avalon has beco Calot, and Glass Island has beco New Glass Island. On another world line, this is due to the devastation of the Shadowy Celestial Marshal.
On this world line, Isabel sacrificed the soul of her Path of Love, along with her ability to love and give birth, to revive the blasted and cursed land of Avalon.
Yet on this world line, Isabel already has more than one child with Aiwass—and the na of the first child, now the Queen of Calot, is even called Aleister!
——But this is the agreent between Aleister and Isabel!
Because Aleister did not want to disappear without a trace, so Isabel planned to forever rember Aleister in this way. In other words, Isabel must first know about Aleister, and Aleister must also fear his own disappearance.
In other words, Aleister must separate from Aiwass and beco a distinct person before it is possible for Isabel to na her first son or daughter Aleister…
Aleister’s brain turned to mush in an instant.
“…What should I choose?”
Aleister murmured softly to himself.
At this mont, the Spiritual Body of Aiwass was sitting in the passenger seat, looking towards those three doors.
Aiwass thoughtfully: “So it is, there are not only possibilities of one world line, but multiple world lines intertwined…”
Unlike Aleister, he, with his broader vision and greater freedom of movent, had already understood.
Because they do not know of the existence of “surveillance”… those who have been promoted still recklessly misuse their abilities and past experiences. The result is death or arrest for nearly all of them; they hardly have much choice.
This is already the fifth question; the progress bar has passed the halfway mark.
Yet this painting has barely changed… Up to this point, it has been three lines running parallel!
“Choose so things, negate others…”
Aiwass stared steadfastly at the “Endless Knot” option.
If guided by his true nature, he would choose this.
After being sched against for so long, it would be odd if he didn’t have a temper—even if the other party is considered his other half, or even his true self, it doesn’t prevent him from wanting to take back his own body.
That’s a genuine enemy. It’s a matter of life and death, no other choice.
…But would introducing a Pillar God as an enemy be a bit too absurd?
For Aleister’s sake, and for the safety of other ascenders… It’s better to choose the most correct answer.
So Aiwass walked through the door that belonged to the “Fallen Celestial Marshal”.
“…There’s nothing to be afraid of.”
Aleister took a deep breath and without hesitation entered the “Endless Knot” door.
