An old woman's voice suddenly came from the dark alley, which was indeed a little scary. Ellie's two golden ponytails jumped, and she subconsciously hugged Cynlos's thighs.

"Honey?"

And Mariana, who was originally sitting in the carriage with Nanorca, also noticed the abnormality, and despite Sinlos's objections, the big-bellied Lady Fanzhuo took Nanorka out of the carriage. She drew the Shadowless Sword from her top hat and stood on guard.

"Ah, it's okay......"

Cynroth looked at the rickety figure in the depths of the alley, and his eyes showed a strange color.

Isn't that the old woman who told their fortunes during the autumn harvest festival last year...... No, it's the creator god Izaris!

……

The creator god is the god who created the world.

As one of the first four gods, Izaris is now more and more revered now that the other three have fallen—though most people, and even many of the new gods, have forgotten about her existence, remembering only a vague legend.

Sinlos didn't know what kind of temper Izaris was, and he always liked to set up a stall in this kind of alley.

However, since it was the goddess of creation who invited her, and she did not show her true identity, then Xinluo did not break it. He wrapped the bandages on his hands again, and after letting Claude see the situation in the neighborhood, he took his wife's hand and took his two daughters to Izaris's side.

Although the seal set by Andiel is strong, it is safer to wear a bandage. Even in the human world, you don't have to worry about encountering those powerful monsters or angels, so it's always right to be safe.

It's still the black robe, it's still the skinny old woman, it's still the crystal ball that shimmers. After the initial panic, Ellie finally calmed down. She looked at the old man in front of her and opened her eyes wide.

"Hey, you're not the ...... you were last year"

"I didn't expect you to remember me, cute little one." The goddess dressed as a witch carefully rubbed the crystal ball in her hand, although the black robe blocked most of her face as usual, but Xinluo could still hear it, and there was a slight smile in the words: "Well, it's a pleasure to see you today, so it's better to charge you less...... It's just ten gold coins. ”

Ten gold coins to find a random gypsy woman witch can be counted dozens of times until you get the fate you want. However, the identity of the witch in front of me is special, so naturally it is impossible to ignore it - by the way, Ms. Izaris, your price has risen too fast, and you only received a gold coin last time.

Without hesitation, Sinlos placed his entire purse on the small table in front of the witch.

The witch raised her head slightly, looked at the young face of Cinnos, and nodded imperceptibly: "It's kind of interesting...... But the old woman only needs ten. ”

As soon as Izaris finished speaking, the money bag that had been tied up opened by itself, and ten cute little gold coins jumped out of the money bag happily. When the gold coin jumped out, the purse tied itself again and flew back to the earl's waist.

It was obviously close at hand, but no matter how Cynroth let go of his senses, he didn't feel the slightest fluctuation in magic. It's as if the actions of the coins and purses are their own actions, not the witch's magic.

Mariana didn't know the identity of the old man in front of her, but as a peak Sun Knight, she still saw the horror of the witch's hand just now. With a worried look in her eyes, she turned to look at her husband. Sinloth shook his head slightly, motioning for her to be uneasy.

"Magic, just the way. What the magician pursues is always only the root ......" The witch did not seem to notice the abnormality of the two couples, and she whispered softly to the surprised Ellie, as if to teach her: "Don't be fooled by the scenery in front of you, you should understand what you want." Either way, even in a ...... way As long as you can achieve your goals, why not give it a try? Something is lost, but it won't come back. ”

After Izaris finished speaking, he glanced at Nanorka, who was standing beside Sinlos, intentionally or unintentionally: "Daughter of the sky......"

That is, Xinluo knows the origin of the other party, and if he doesn't know the inside story, he must think that the other party is deliberately saying some specious things to pretend to be like most gods.

Itzaris was obviously reminding Ellie and Nanoka of something, but seeing that Ellie looked confused, Nanorka's face was flushed...... The girl's thoughts, don't guess yourself, hurry up and ask this uncle to tell their fortunes.

The prompts from the system in the first few days always made Xinlos feel uneasy.

"So, please do a fortune teller for our family."

Hearing Xinluos's request, Izaris nodded and sped up the movement of rubbing on the crystal ball: "People like to be verbose when they are old, I'll take a look, I'll take a look......"

There was a faint glimmer on the crystal ball, and a gray mist appeared inside the crystal ball. The originally ordinary, even slightly obscene thin old man showed a bit of unique charm against the backdrop of this mysterious atmosphere.

Sinlos looked at the exposed half of the old man's chin and couldn't take his eyes off it...... It shouldn't be like this, she should have ...... Flame as hot, as bright as the stars......

Hey, what was I thinking?

Sinloth was in a trance, and then the Count finally realized what he was thinking. He shuddered and forcibly suppressed his thoughts of witches. Fortunately, at this time, whether it was Mariana or the other two little girls, they were very attentive to watch the witch fiddling with the crystal ball in her hand, but they didn't notice the abnormality of Xinluos.

"The stars shift, and the two snakes dance together. In the name of protection, he destroys all the tyrants in front of him. O Guardian of Libra......"

Muttering obscure words in his mouth, Izaris moved faster and faster, and the light on the crystal ball grew stronger. In the gray inside the crystal ball, there was a little bit of crystalline light. The light became brighter and brighter, and the intense light even overflowed the crystal ball, making it impossible to look at it directly.

"Manifest, serpent's track!"

With the witch's spell, the crystal ball turned into a dazzling sun in an instant, and the originally dark alleys became visible. Under the intense light, Xinluo subconsciously blocked his eyes with his hands, but he still felt a burst of whiteness in front of him.

After a long time, the white light slowly dissipated.

Izaris sat in his seat, gasping for breath. His body trembled, looking very tired.

“…… Are you alright? ”

Unconsciously, Sinloth's words carried a few hints of concern. Knowing that the other party was a doppelganger of the Creation God, nothing would happen, but Xinluo still couldn't help but care about her.

"It doesn't matter. Old, old. It's just a fortune telling, and it's so hard......"

The witch laughed at herself, she adjusted her breathing, and then smiled at the four people in front of her, "So, which of you will come first?" ”

"Ellie, Ellie comes first!"

Hearing the witch's question, the blonde little fool was the first to jump up and stretch out his fleshy little paws. The little one clenched his fists and looked at the witch mother-in-law with sparkling eyes.

"Good, good ......"

Izaris smiled lovingly, and his hands began to rub against the crystal ball. Ellie watched Izzaris with unblinking eyes, her expression unusually serious. Although even Izaris herself says that fate can be changed, her divination will not necessarily come true. But last year, the witch said that she would become a maid who was worried about her weight in the future, and it still seemed that Ellie was quite concerned about it.

So after a year of hard work, what will Ellie's future be changed into?

Izaris stared at the crystal ball that emitted a glimmer for a long time, and then said slowly: "You will probably become a stupid junior non-commissioned officer who likes to fall flat in the future." ”

"Alas?!"

Ellie screamed, both golden ponytails standing up. Although it sounds a lot better than the maid last time, this time it ...... Ellie snorted, ran to the back aggrievedly, and skillfully Nanoka, who was shorter than herself, launched a chest bury. The soft bun face was aimed at Nanorka's washboard, constantly rubbing back and forth.

"Woo, Nanoka, Ellie don't be a junior non-commissioned officer, and don't be a fool......"

"Sister, it's okay, it's okay......"

Not to mention how Nanoka struggled to comfort his stupid sister, Xinluo looked at the creation god in front of him who was pretending to be a charlatan warlock with an iron mouth, and his eyes were full of helplessness. If the last time she prophesied for Ellie that the little guy could only be a maid, Cinnroth still believed it somewhat. Now, then, Cynroth would never believe it again - looking at the slightly curled corners of Izzarith's mouth, Cynroth understood that this guy was obviously just teasing the little one.

You creators really know how to play.

So, whose turn is next?

Mariana took two steps forward, and although it was a little difficult, she still saluted the witch in front of her. Although Sinloth did not tell Mariana about the true identity of the witch, the intelligent woman still guessed a little. Madame Fanzo caressed her belly, her eyes full of love.

"I have attained the greatest happiness in the world...... If you can, please help Lelouch calculate his fortune carefully. ”

Mariana had always cared deeply about what Izaris had said to her last time. She paid 200,000 points of attention to her unborn child, but if it was really as Izaris said last time, then she had no choice but to ...... for the sake of Sinlos

Izaris stroked the crystal ball and took a deep look at Mariana's belly. Through the heavy black robes, Sinloth still felt the seriousness in Izaris's gaze. If when she faced Ellie, she was just a fun-loving elder, then now she ......

"My fate has changed again."

Izaris looked at it for a long time before he sighed. She stopped what she was doing, and out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at Xinluos, who was standing aside: "Since three years ago, the trajectory of fate has been a mess. It's as if some idiot has broken into the room where the goddess of fate is weaving her destiny and has made a mess of the otherwise smooth tapestry of fate. In the past, this situation did not occur, but it was often a small trend that could be changed, and the general trend remained the same, but now...... Even I can't see clearly. ”

"Your child, won't do what you feared. Your child will become a man of no exception in the world and will be in love with his father...... But...... It's not necessarily a good thing. ”

"Thank you for your teaching."

It would be nice that Lelouch wouldn't argue with Sinloth. Except for her husband and son, everything else was dispensable for Mariana. The delighted Mariana bowed again, and then retreated.

Seeing Mariana retreat, Nanoka, who had managed to soothe her awkward sister, walked up. The little girl held her staff and swallowed in the face of the mysterious witch in front of her.

The woman dressed as a witch was so mysterious that even though there was no magic fluctuation around her, she always felt a little uneasy every time Nanorka faced her.

It's a strange feeling.

"You seem to be scared of me? What a sensitive girl. Izaris chuckled as she stretched out her thin right hand and took Nanorka's small, soft, slender hand. The witch sighed softly, as if full of emotion: "It's good to be young......"

Just as Sinlos wondered what the playful creator god was up to, a dark light flowed through Izaris's palm, and soon formed a crystalline vial containing a hint of pink liquid. Taking advantage of Nanorka's body blocking part of Cynlos's vision, the witch quickly shoved the bottle into Nanorka's hand.

Nanorka's eyes widened, as if she understood something.

Just as she was about to speak, Izaris put his mouth into Nanorka's ear and muttered softly.

“…… That's a diamond, and it will never take the initiative...... Don't leave regrets...... One drop at a time...... You're too weak to take it......"

Nanorka's face instantly flushed, and the usually polite little girl broke away violently and trotted away from Izaris's side. In the face of Nanorka's slightly rough behavior, the witch didn't care. Like an old fox who had stolen a chicken, the witch grinned and sat back in her seat, reverting to her wand of the crystal ball.

"Nanorka, what's wrong?"

"No, it's not ......" Nanoka's eyes lowered, and the girl seemed to kick the pebbles at her feet unintentionally, but she couldn't hide the trembling in her words: "It's really nothing ......"

Sinloth was a little confused, but out of trust in his daughter, he didn't ask much in the end. It's not the first time he's met the legendary figure of Izzaris, but as he spends more time with her, Cynroth feels that the majestic figure in his heart who can sacrifice himself for the sake of the world is slowly crumbling - Izzaris doesn't look much different from an ordinary old woman.

But with her identity, she shouldn't be able to harm a little girl who has no grievances with her. I'm afraid that this product is set up here, and it is purely idle and boring. Thinking of this, Xinluo collected his mood and took two steps forward.

"So, please help me with my divination."

"Your fate is too chaotic, it's like a group of demons. Even a rough estimate is very difficult, and the old woman is old, so it is impossible to cover everything...... Say it yourself, what do you want to know most? ”

Sinlos hesitated for a moment, and finally asked tentatively, "Can you help me calculate my recent fortunes, and ...... The future of the empire. ”

The witch stroked the crystal ball twice, and her tone was slightly mocking: "Van Drake, how long are you going to play stupid?" ”

……

[The number of days has changed, the artifact is easier, and it belongs to the virtuous people, this natural principle is also. The chaos is coming, and I should ...... too]

[1. The earl's crown doesn't seem to be gorgeous enough. 】

[2. The war in the North Sea is my best chance. 】

Before Sinloth could ask again, the witch raised her hand, and the four of them were gently led out of the alley as if they were being held by a gentle giant hand. When Sinloth landed, the Count looked into the alley again, and there was no witch.

The dark alleys, as dirty and dark as ever, really didn't have anything special.

"If you have time, come to the swamp to accompany the old woman."

Listening to Izzaris's ethereal voice, Sinlos frowned. He bowed deeply in the direction of the alley, and then led his family in the direction of the carriage. Mariana realized, but Sinloth was in a terrible mood now, and she didn't dare to ask more, so she had to hold her husband's hand tightly.

Ellie looked back at the dark alley and quickly caught up with her parents.

Nanoka held the bottle in her hand and was speechless all the way.

……

"What the hell is it that can ...... me silently?"

The archangel, who was attacked by a mysterious substance and fell directly into the garbage heap, shook his head and finally got up from the ground. I don't know what the other party is using, not only is it invisible and substantial when attacking, but there is no trace of it except for a burst of fragrance. And when she recovered, she was still weak. In terms of the physique of the awakened advent body, this incident is indeed incredible.

"Didn't kill me? Was it an accident...... Or ......"

The archangel's mind was in chaos, and just as she was about to find a safe place to clear her mind for a while, she suddenly remembered a faint female voice in her ears.

"Isn't this the child of Arceus...... It's okay, just to accompany the old woman to chat. ”

With this faint female voice, a huge suction force also appeared out of thin air, sucking the confused archangel directly into a deep alley. No matter how much the archangel who has reached the apex of the world resists, he cannot resist this great power. The nun in yellow was caught in the alley, and there was no more sound.

"Hey!"
