Chapter 150 Extra: Remus's deal with "Time"
If Remus has any secret... I think it should be the deal he made with "Time" at the very beginning.
The devil rarely dreams... unless this so-called dream foreshadows the future, or foreshadows the future that he has seen.
The power of "time" is hard to guess. It uses fate as a bargaining chip, a new future as a thank you, and transactions as a link... In the end, it rewrites everything about Remus.
In the dream, Remus communicated many things with "time"...
"What do you think your destiny is?" Time asked.
"My destiny is in my own hands," Remus replied. "I will have the future I want."
“The future is hard to predict. Even you, who are “time”, cannot see everything clearly.”
"I can let you see your future, are you willing?" "Time" asked again.
"I don't want to." Remus smiled carefreely and said, "This world always has its own rules."
"If I saw my so-called future, I might fall into panic and step into my destined path ahead of time in endless fear."
"The future you're talking about is not my future."
"You really don't want to watch?" The question of "time" seemed endless, and His words aroused Remus' curiosity.
"I can tell you very clearly that if there is not the slightest mistake, your fate will not be changed."
"Under the decree of Heaven, no living being in this world can escape their fate."
"Even God can only slightly change his trajectory."
Remus was silent.
The more powerful he is, the more he understands how terrible [Heavenly Law] is.
What’s even more terrifying… is the [Origin] that created the [Heavenly Law]!
"So, if I want to see my future, what price do I have to pay?" Remus took a deep breath. Although it was just a dream, he still felt nervous.
Any gift from fate has already been secretly marked with a price... Compared to paying a price that you cannot afford in the future, it is better to know it in advance.
"It's very simple." There was a hint of smile in Time's voice, because He knew that Remus had agreed to the deal: "I need you to help me detect His existence."
"Who is 'He'?" Remus asked curiously.
"He is the Sea." Time answered.
"Sea?" Remus didn't quite understand what the other party meant.
"You only need to know one thing... 'He' is special!" Time continued to answer: "You don't need to ask me how I compare to 'He'..."
"..." Remus was silent for a few breaths, then said: "In that case, then you can show me my future."
He did not ask why "Time" chose him, nor did he ask why "Time" did not meet "Him" in person...
Because Remus knew one thing, that is, the moment "time" found him, he no longer had the power to choose.
He couldn't refuse, nor could he choose!
"The deal is done..." Time said softly, "Now, take a good look at your future. I believe you will be happy with your choice."
As the words "Time" fell, a light slowly emerged before his eyes...
……
[The order of heaven continued to collapse, so in order to repair the order, the sky decided to replace the "order of heaven" with the "order of seven"]
[The Demon War has begun...]
[Endless war is coming... He... cannot avoid it! ]
[Between the red sand plains and the gray mountains, a terrible war destroyed his kingdom, and the absolutely powerful King of the Red Sand made him lose everything...]
[All the subjects and homeland belong to the God King of Chisha]
[He was unwilling to submit to the power of Chisha, so he chose to embark on a journey of wandering]
[Under the lightless abyss of the sea, the source of all waters, is a city that is not recorded in any history books...]
[Originally, he just wanted to bury himself in Gao Hai's tomb, but he never thought that this would become the starting point of his new destiny]
[He was summoned by the sky and became the leader of this high sea area. However, in his past communication with the Lord of Waters, he received the message that the living must die.]
[In order to avoid the birth of disaster, he chose to rewrite everything! ]
[Use the spirit dew to create a golem that bears the memories and emotions of all living beings, and then use the fate of all living beings in the High Sea to create something that transcends everything - "Phobos"! ]
[However, under his wild imagination, his empire eventually collapsed! ]
[Betrayal and awakening...]
[Give and Revenge...]
[Everything he did became the driving force for the empire's demise...]
[Accompanied by the response of "Phobos", the continent collapsed and sank into the bottomless abyss. The people of the former empire all turned into corpses...]
……
tick tock...tick tock...
He ran his fingers over his cheek and Remus was surprised to find that he was actually shedding tears.
"You are regretting, right?" "Time" asked Remus who saw his fate.
"Yeah... I regret it..." Remus admitted, "Everything I created with my own hands became the cause of destroying everything."
"Everything I created has become my grave."
"If I had done nothing, perhaps my subjects would not have died because of me..."
"Do you think it's possible?" Time asked back, "With your heart, will you really do nothing?"
Remus fell silent.
"...Now, tell me the content of our deal." He closed his eyes and waited for the next judgment.
"This is just a route in your destiny..." Time chuckled and said, "I want you to go east, to the East China Sea."
"There, build your kingdom."
"What... do you mean?" Remus was a little confused: "Can I avoid my fate by going to that location?"
“Not really…” Time shook its head slightly and replied, “But it can make your destiny come later.”
"If you can wake up the sea, maybe you can really change your future."
"I agree..." Remus took a deep breath: "I hope this deal can really protect them..."
"I am not a qualified king. Perhaps according to what you said, everything will change..."
So, Remus sneaked through the mountains and the red sand, avoiding all the demons he could meet, and finally came to the Thousand Star Sea...
……
As the memories emerged in his mind, Remus chuckled and looked at everything in front of him.
The three gods discussed how to deal with the people under the abyss.
"'Time'... maybe just as you said, my life now is indeed much better than that false future..."
Just as he was thinking, a sentence sounded in his ears.
"Remus, what's wrong with you? You look a little distracted?"
