Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 1050 Half of the Old Day?

The evil god believed in by the "Aurora Society" is said to be the remaining core of the creator who created everything, the "true creator"... In the Fourth Era when the gods still walked the world, he was not the evil existence that everyone is shouting and killing now, but one of the gods with the same beliefs as the Goddess of Night, the Lord of Storms, the Eternal Sun, etc. He supported the "Black Emperor" Solomon to establish an empire spanning the entire northern continent, and his status was similar to the current Seven Gods Alliance.

Angel recalled the secret history of the Fourth Age and asked with a frown:
"But doesn't the 'True Creator' support the 'Black Emperor' among the Four Emperors? Why would the 'Underworld Emperor' and the 'God of Death' Salinger listen to His advice?"

Could it be that the God of Death had gone mad before forcibly accommodating the uniqueness of the "Red Priest" - Angel did not dare to say this out loud.

"So this is just my suspicion," Azik shook his head, indicating that his answer might not be accurate. "Among the Death God Corps on the Northern Expedition, there are believers of the True Creator, and even angels from the Hanged Man Path. From this, I can conclude that my father has some cooperation with that god."

“The Hanged Man”, or the “Secret Prayer Man” path?

Angel pondered and thought that Azik's inference was likely correct. After all, the "Black Emperor" Solomon, whom this evil god supported in the Fourth Epoch, was killed twice by the Six Gods Alliance at that time. He himself was expelled and blocked in the God-forsaken Land. It was normal for him to try to support the God of Death to counterattack the Northern Continent.

Of course, judging from the results, even though the alliance between the God of Death and the "Original Witch" was supported by the "True Creator" behind the scenes, it was ultimately defeated by the orthodox sects that became the Seven Gods Alliance after the "God of Craftsmen" joined at the end of the "Pale Disaster". The "Original Witch" was severely injured and never recovered, rarely responding to her believers, and the "God of Death" simply died on the way back to the southern continent, creating a violent sea that separated the northern and southern continents, cutting off contact between the two continents until Emperor Roselle opened up a new route a thousand years later.

The most important thing is that before his death, the "God of Death" Salinger left a backup plan for resurrection, Mr. Azik, and this is the reason why she came to the dream at this time.

"Mr. Azik..." Angel continued to ask, "Do you know the specific details of the cooperation between the 'Original Witch' and the 'Death God'? I mean, what benefits did both parties gain from the cooperation?"

Azik did not answer immediately this time. Instead, he changed to a comfortable sitting position, lowered his head and thought for a moment before answering:

"The stated purpose of the 'Original Witch' Chike is very clear, which is to avenge Alistair Tudor, destroy the mortal kingdom supported by the Seven Gods, and destroy the foundation of their faith.

“But only I and a few of my brothers and sisters know that He promised my father that He would bring Trier and the Blood Emperor’s body, which were sealed underground, back to the surface and hand them over to us... Every extraordinary person in the realm of death would not refuse to control such a powerful corpse...

"Before that, my father had already used the corpse of the previous 'Death God' Graygari to strengthen his control over the underworld and improve his strength as a 'Death God', so he was very interested in this proposal."

Ah... Angel was a little stunned:

"The Blood Emperor's body? Wasn't his death the direct cause of the 'Original Witch''s opposition to the Seven Gods? Why would she be willing to hand over his body? This is somewhat contradictory..."

She would rather believe that Chike took back Tudor's body in order to find a way to resurrect the "Blood Emperor." "Looking back now, the reasons given by the 'Original Witch' were indeed not very sufficient, but her speech in front of my father touched the souls of everyone who listened, making people believe in her. This 'witch' is undoubtedly the most attractive woman in the world, and every living being who sees her is fascinated by her, including me, my brothers and sisters, the undead creatures under our command, and of course my father."

"Instigation", "charm", these are the abilities of a true God... Angel complained in his heart.

Of course, she knew that this ability alone could not convince a true god. The "God of Death" who won the Four Emperors' War but was driven back to the Southern Continent must have also thought about counterattacking the Northern Continent, so he accepted the covenant of the "Original Witch" and jointly prepared for the Pale Disaster. Judging from the tragic war results, if the "True Creator" did not just send some believers to participate in the war, but personally went out to support the Southern Continent, the "God of Death"'s desperate gamble might really succeed.

Interests are the basis of their cooperation, not just "charm" and "persuasion"... Angel made a judgment in his heart, and then continued to ask:
“Even if that’s the case, He shouldn’t easily accommodate the ‘uniqueness’ of non-adjacent pathways… This will only lead to madness or even loss of control. But you said that He has become stronger even after going crazy?”

Hearing Angel's question, Azik smiled and nodded, answering it seriously as if he were facing a tricky question from a student in class:
"After a Beyonder takes on non-adjacent Beyonder characteristics, they will be alienated by the spiritual imprints within the characteristics, and the characteristics will conflict with each other. Losing control and going crazy are both good outcomes, and most people will only have death as an ending... Even if they jump to an adjacent path, they will still face corresponding problems, but the degree is less severe. Therefore, the opportunity to jump to a path is often at a high sequence. Through the help of rituals and the transformation of the spirit by divinity, this risk can be reduced...

"But the gods are different. They have the characteristics and uniqueness of an entire path in their bodies to stabilize their own state. Their spirits are extremely strong and can resist this negative influence to a certain extent. This is also the reason why many ancient gods in the Second Era who accommodate and blend the characteristics of different paths can still maintain a certain degree of rationality. Although they are half crazy, their strength is actually stronger than the true gods of a single path."

So that's how it is. This is also the reason why "Blood Emperor" Tudor and Emperor Roselle dared to jump to non-adjacent paths to become true gods. As long as they successfully ascend to Sequence 0, even at the cost of half madness, they will have enough time and opportunity to stabilize their state and slowly recover themselves with the help of the anchors prepared in advance...

Judging from the fact that Tudor has been able to control his empire for hundreds of years, His condition is actually getting better... Angel thought about it, knowing that Azik had not yet gotten to the point, and continued to listen.

"Of course, compared to the madness that was bound to happen, the uniqueness of the Red Priest, who was contaminated multiple times during the Four Emperors' War, was not that attractive. Therefore, even if he cooperated with the Original Witch, my father had never made up his mind..." Azik continued, his expression becoming more serious than ever, "...until that god, who should be the true creator, provided Him with a plan..."

"Use the power of the Styx, combined with the power of the City of Disaster that has already polluted the uniqueness of the Red Priest, to remove the remaining pollution and make it barely accommodating.

"And the father who forcibly accepts this 'uniqueness' and the pollution of the 'City of Disaster' attached to it will gain power beyond the true God and become...

"...half of the old day."
