And looking down at the figure below him who bowed to him obediently, the indifferent pupils of the dark thing had no temperature, and there was no warmth to see the daughter and attendant who had served him for tens of thousands of years, only endless coldness.

"Tell me, can you still see fate?"

The snake girl, who was worshipping her father and offering her loyalty and worship, suddenly heard a cold voice in her ears.

The Snake Girl looked up, a little dazed and overwhelmed in the depths of her pale pupils, which had lost color because of death, and she didn't understand why her father was asking this question, but she replied respectfully.

"I was able to see. ”

Lowering her body again, Mona said hoarsely, death robbed her of her once pleasant and crisp voice, and her cold, dehydrated throat could not make any good sound.

"What do you see? ”

The indifferent voice asked again.

Mona closed her eyes at the sound of the serpent, and her hoarse voice grew ethereal.

"I see...... On a 64-square, black-and-white chessboard full of chess pieces, black and white knights surrounded by squires, and a steady stream of soldiers poured out of the castle, bishops wearing high hats and waving holy scepters in their hands, boosting the morale of the soldiers, but the queen, who shared the power of the world with the king, sat peacefully on the throne, and wherever her finger pointed, thousands of warriors fought for it. ”

"I see...... On both sides of the chessboard, the fool who decides the outcome of the game is randomly fiddling with the chess pieces in his hand, and in the future it will deflect at its fingertips......"

With the ethereal voice, Mona's face gradually became a little more painful, and she tried to continue the prophecy with difficulty, but as if she had encountered some insurmountable obstacle, she could not continue to speak, and finally the corners of her mouth flowed blue-black blood, and she had to be forced to stop the prophecy

But the dark thing didn't care about the difficult appearance of the loyal daughter under his feet, but a different color flashed in his dark pupils.

Norn is a prophetess and prophetess who can penetrate fate, but in essence, Norn is actually a messenger who maintains the flow of fate, or declares the will of that behemoth, and Norn's power comes from the monster called "fate" at the end of that time and space, which devours all time and space.

It's just that the vast majority of Norn don't even realize this themselves, so the messengers who are supposed to serve fate will also serve the gods and monsters for various reasons.

However, the snake is not actually interested in Norn and the big snake only knowing a little bit from Loki's mouth, anyway, it is not interested in understanding, those things, I am afraid that only the dead Loki can understand some of them, but what really makes it care is ......

If Norn can still get a glimpse of fate, then does the source of Norn's power, Orlaug, still exist?

The All-Knowing Almighty once said that it destroyed countless planes and planes in a single thought, so does the Orlaug, the power of the underworld, which is feared by both Ymir and Loki, exist?

The dark thing was thinking, and although the omniscient and all-powerful did not hide anything from him, saying that he was indeed omniscient and omnipotent, and all signs indicated this, the serpent was still faintly trying to spy on the limits of the omniscient and omnipotent's abilities, the loophole that theoretically did not exist......

And just as the dark thing was thinking, Mona, who had barely recovered, raised her head and looked at her father in front of her, with a little uneasiness and deep self-reproach on her face.

"Father, I have let you down. ”

For her, who dedicated all her body and mind to the Great Snake, it was already the greatest regret that she failed to complete her mission and satisfy the Great Snake.

But the dark thing only glanced at her and said indifferently.

"You have limited abilities, and I don't blame you. ”

In all fairness, the characters involved in the future that Mona is trying to predict are far beyond imagination, so Orochi doesn't think there is anything about Mona's failure to predict completely.

However, this sentence seemed to have some kind of lethal effect for Mona, she opened her mouth to say something, but in the end she could only bow her head gloomily, and only the clenched palm seemed to prove her unwillingness.

The serpent didn't pay any attention to it, because it didn't notice it, and because even if it did, it wouldn't pay attention to it.

"Go, go and wake up your maids-in-waiting, and wait for my orders. ”

The entire Nordic universe has died, because the future has long been eaten, and only those who died in the past, and only through the power of the serpent were able to break free from death and her more than 100 maids, can still retain their souls in this dead universe.

However, after finding Mona, the dark thing didn't bother to look for the souls of the other dead, and then disappeared into this cold, dark, dead universe, leaving Mona alone.

And staring at the dark thing that had disappeared in place, feeling her cold heart that had long since stopped beating, and her equally cold dry body, Mona muttered a prayer silently, just like the past 10,000 years......

In another place, the dark thing looked at the chessboard in front of him, and there was only one black king's chessboard, and the many white pieces on the opposite side were ready to move, while the dark thing was calm as usual, except that above his dexterous fingertips, there was a pitch-black chess piece flying up and down.

......

Crystal Days.

"Black Bishop?"

In front of the omniscient and all-powerful who was shrouded in infinite light, the chessboard was suspended in mid-air, and there were many chess pieces sitting on it, but next to the chessboard, which was originally only a lone black king, there was an extra black bishop.

The solemn black bishop, holding a pagan serpent ornament in his hand, and his face shrouded in a thin veil could not be seen clearly, and he was tightly guarded by the black king's side.

The secretive bishop is not as brave as a knight, nor as steady as a castle, and his changeable and deceitful mind makes him more accustomed to surprise battles, but only his fervent faith in the gods of his heart is particularly strong.

The All-Knowing Almighty pondered that there were no secrets before it, that nothing could be hidden from it if it wanted to, but that being able to know everything did not mean that it was willing to know everything.

In its hands, it had grasped a book at some point, and the thick pages contained all the past and future of all time and space, and the omniscient and all-powerful could read the entire book in an instant at any time if it wanted to, but it did not do so, only turned to one of the pages......

It's about the pages that recorded it now.

"What a fun game......"

The All-Knowing Almighty let out a chuckle, and the book in his hand that had recorded everything burned in flames.

Just as it prevented the Serpent Girl from peering into the future, it didn't like to spy into the future, and knowing the ending in advance was the most boring thing, so even if it was the text that recorded everything, it didn't go any further.

In the firelight, you can faintly see the "...... of Devouring the World" written on the title page

"As you read this, do you think who's going to win the gamble? Is it me? Or is it the serpent?"

Within the crystal sky, there seemed to be laughter.
