Chapter 531: When I Was Young

"You met Olerunis?"

The Virgin sat down on the stone bench and asked quietly.

Alka, who was next to him, nodded.

In this way, Our Lady is indeed very familiar with this god of newness, and it may be that they are sisters and brothers, as this god of newness says.

Thinking so, I heard Our Lady speaking there.

"Olerunis, according to normal relationships, he should be my brother.

He emerged from my mother's body at the same time and in the same place as me. ”

Hearing this, Arka thought for a moment, thinking carefully that these natural gods, such as the Holy Mother, must be different from the conditions in which they were born in flesh and blood.

After all, they are born directly from the body of the world.

The birth they are talking about may not be quite what Alka thinks.

However, Arka didn't ask in detail.

"It's a pity, he's proud, so proud that he can't stand any situation where his self-esteem is broken.

The catastrophe of the gods took a strong toll on his pride, and since then, we have parted ways. Our Lady spoke so calmly.

It seems to be reminiscing about the past.

The Calamity of the Gods?

If you think about it, too.

The gods who are high up are shot down by the world one by one and become mortals.

Without the privilege of being born as a god, how could it be possible for these people with strong self-esteem to endure it.

Perhaps it was the mother's original intention to let these first children born in him understand their relationship with mortals.

Maybe some of them really understood and learned.

Like Our Lady.

But I think about a lot of parts, but I just look for the surface to bury such humiliation in my heart.

After all, these gods are no different from mortals in some way.

They are all creatures with emotions.

It's just that you were born strong.

Listening to the words of the Virgin, Arka was cranky in his mind.

"The gods are back."

Our Lady said suddenly.

Hearing this, Arka pulled back the interrupted thoughts in his mind and looked at the Virgin.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Are they here to destroy this world that has been reassembled so hard?" ”

Our Lady nodded without hesitation: "That's right, they are here to completely destroy this world this time. ”

Hearing this, Arka couldn't help but ask, "Since they were able to destroy the world before, it means that they were able to completely destroy it before, why didn't they completely destroy it?"

But it took so many years to start again on the destruction of the world? ”

This is something that Arka does not understand.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, he knew that in the previous battle between the two sides that guarded the world and destroyed the world, the side that destroyed the world won the battle.

That is, the side of the Virgin lost.

The world as it is now, and the records in the Great Library, are clearly written.

This is indeed the case.

The side that destroyed the world won, blowing the world into ruins.

It stands to reason that if they were afraid that the world would be repaired, they should have blown up the pieces that destroyed the world to slag at that time.

Or that when the world is put together again, they should come back and destroy the world again.

Instead of waiting until now to come back.

It's weird.

He didn't understand.

Hearing Alka's words, the Virgin looked at him and suddenly smiled and said.

"Since you want to know so much, then come with me."

So saying, the Virgin got up.

Arka stood up and hurriedly followed behind her.

However, the moment he stood up, the world around him changed.

Instead of standing on the floor of the manor, he appeared in what seemed to be a starry sky for a moment.

This is the astral plane.

Arka looked downwards to the place where he couldn't see the edge.

This is a world of the ocean, look at this shape, which is the legendary round sky.

Arka didn't quite understand it, but the place was familiar, and he could tell at a glance that it was the endless sea he had seen when he turned back time.

Our Lady and Menierx were standing beside him.

Stand with him above this astral plane.

Our Lady said, pointing to the boundless sea below them.

"This is our world, but she wasn't like that."

The Virgin waved her hand as she spoke.

There was a change like a fantasy in front of me, and then a beautiful and brilliant world appeared.

The world is like a crystal, a round sphere with a hard shell like a thin crystal film on the surface of the sphere.

Through the thin film of the crystal, you can see the real core inside.

A beautiful world.

It is countless times larger than the infinite sea.

The world is boundless as if it has no borders, and countless lives are active on it.

Powerful lifeforms, brilliant civilizations develop above.

You don't need Our Lady to introduce Alka to be able to feel it.

That's right.

This is the world it once was.

The world of the Golden Age.

"At that time, our World Astral Boundary was famous, and it was the most powerful group in the entire Astral Boundary, among countless worlds."

It is not the most powerful world, and it is impossible to give birth to the supreme beings of the astral plane, such as the Holy Mother.

Not just one or two.

Light Arka now knows.

There is the Virgin, the god of the sea, the god of war who betrays.

As for whether there will be more Arka is not clear.

"When the world is shattered, we, the children who protect the world, lose, but we are not reconciled to this.

Although some of the brothers and sisters gave up, there were still some who stayed with us. So we started collecting the shards of the Mother in the astral plane.

Then he secretly took these fragments far away, and put the fragments back together into what is now the Boundless Sea. ”

At this point, the Virgin's face showed an expression that I didn't know whether it was a smile or a sad expression, but I could see the eyes with memories.

"At that time, we secretly reunited my mother and resurrected her. And then hide far away, where no one can find it. ”

"That's why they can't find it."

Hearing this, Arka nodded, which means that when the Infinite Sea was first put together, those betrayed gods didn't know at all, or they knew, but they didn't know where.

After all, the astral boundary is vast and boundless, and there are no borders.

Although her mother eventually fell asleep because of the pain, she still kept her body.

At that time, we were strong enough to gradually move the world back to where it used to be.

And those betrayers have already parted ways in 10,000 years, and even their mothers have betrayed, how can they be expected to be able to work together again?

In the past 10,000 years, they have killed each other without knowing how many deaths. At this point, Arka saw a clear smile on the face of the Virgin.

That's right.

It is an existence that has betrayed the world that has been born in order to wash away the shame and the power years that have nurtured them, how can you expect them to take into account the so-called brotherhood.

And after all, they are all brothers and sisters from the same world fighting each other, and the power taken from brothers and sisters is definitely more suitable for them than the power of other worlds.

It is an inevitable situation that contradictions are stimulated and mutually devoured.

Tens of thousands of years is also a long year for the gods.

The main thing is that two of the four gods have already achieved the supremacy of the astral plane.

Although there are differences between the supremes, the two supremes are enough to protect this world.

In order to become such an being, what kind of journey the Virgin and the sea god went through, Alka naturally does not know, but it is obviously not a happy process.

"But although they are not ready to destroy this world for a while, it is only because they are afraid of each other, not that they do not want to.

So when the Infinite Sea came here, the gods of the past would look around from time to time and cast their power on the world.

The barriers we have set up can prevent these gods from entering the Infinite Sea, but there is nothing we can do about their power.

Although I don't want to admit it, I have to say that this world used to be their world as well. ”

Hearing this, Arka probably understood.

He himself was still a little confused.

After all, the battle between the church where the flesh and blood were located and the gods in the sky that Arka had just known had only been less than half a year apart.

How could it be possible to develop such a large church in this world in half a year, and be able to take out two scepter-level treasures to build a body for the gods.

As long as you gods can't end up in person, you can't just rely on the influence of power so quickly.

Now it seems that those gods have already laid out in this world.

Through the influence of his own strength, he has pulled up many cults.

And this time, because of the demonic invasion, these betrayed gods also found a fatal opportunity.

Now all the cults that betrayed the gods are raging across the Infinite Sea, blocking the incoming support and destroying our logistical islands. ”

Speaking of which, the Virgin looked at Arka.

"The four gods, and even the new gods, know the seriousness of the problem, and we don't have much power to help the Infinite Sea at this time.

We must build a barrier of protection in our own power to prevent the presence of threats from outside from entering the interior.

And the internal problems we can't do anything about it for the time being, and as time goes by, the internal problems will become more and more serious. ”

Look at the Virgin staring into her eyes.

Arka nodded solemnly.

"I see."

That is, the fear of the world being destroyed from within.

The Virgin smiled as she spoke, stretched out her hand and waved again, and they reappeared in the manor.

But instead of them just sitting on a stone bench outside the manor, they appeared inside the manor. Truth be told, Arka has been to the Kingdom of Our Lady so many times, but this is the first time he has entered the interior of the building.

At this time, the place where he appeared was actually a baby room.

There are baby cradles one after another, made of rattan and ears of wheat.

The inside is covered with white and soft cloth for baby mattresses.

But a large percentage of these bassinets are empty.

Some children watched from time to time.

And next to where they were were two empty baby bassinets.

"See this cradle?"

Our Lady points to one of the babies' cradles.

It's no different from other cradles.

Arka looked at the cradle.

Inexplicably, he reached out and touched it and shook it, and a familiar feeling came to his heart.

"It's familiar."

Hearing this, the Virgin smiled.

"This is where you once were."

I see.

No wonder Arka felt the familiarity coming from within his soul when he looked at this cradle, especially when he stretched out his hand and shook it.

"When you were thrown in by your mother, I was in charge of catching you. At that time, there will always be some souls of the Infinite Sea who have accidentally drifted out of the world because of the existence of no connection.

Even though her mother's consciousness was asleep at that time, she still had this instinct. ”

Alka had seen this before, and he had seen it twice by going back in time.

It is also known that this situation exists.

This is also the reason why they want to spread their reputation and use themselves as rudders to drag down those mortal souls.

"When you were thrown in and I caught you, I immediately noticed that something was wrong with you."

Saying that, Our Lady looked at Arka and said with a smile: "At that time, I knew that you were not the soul of our world, you just happened to appear at the edge of the world for some reason, and you were mistaken by your mother for one of the souls of the world. ”

With a slight wave of our Lady's hand, a baby appeared in the empty cradle.

"This is who you used to be."

Looking at the baby Arka in the cradle, I always felt weird.

Watching yourself as a child?

And it can't be counted as a child, but its own soul.

"Although you are not the soul of this world, you have been thrown in after all, and for this broken world, there is nothing strange about an ordinary soul from another world.

But it is precisely because you do not belong to this world that you need to be placed in this cradle and let you integrate into the world. ”

As she spoke, the Holy Mother suddenly sighed and said, "I originally thought that you would thrive here, but after all, I have never raised a soul from another world, so your growth is different from what I thought.

Having to put you into the world when you were a baby does not allow you to be born as a baby like ordinary people, but allows you to carry the memories of your soul into a shell that is perfectly compatible with you. ”

Hearing this, Arka probably understood.

In other words, he traveled to the original Arka's body, precisely because Arka died at that time, and it happened that this body was very suitable for him.

And it happens to be within the jurisdiction of Our Lady, because it is a homeland island. Our Lady threw his soul over her.

So he was reborn or crossed over.

I see.

Although Arka once returned to his own time and turned back his time, the process of going backwards did not include his own soul, which was in this part of the capital of the Virgin Mary.

This is, after all, a supreme being.

Normal reflux itself will also shield out the conditions associated with the supreme.

So this was the first time he knew about his experience in the Kingdom of Mary, and for more specific reasons.

"You are not the original existence of this world, so I never force you to do anything for this world."

Speaking of this, Our Lady looked at him: "So, when you are willing to do something for this world, I am very happy and hope that you will persevere. ”

Arka nodded.

This in itself is his will.

"Go, the order of the four gods has been given, and now is a special time, even those who hold the Tower of Trials are unwilling to hand over the Tower of Trials.

Time is of the essence, and as time goes by, our disadvantages will become bigger and bigger, although there are many people who are struggling.

But some things are inevitable, and I hope you can make a difference in the world.

Fate is fickle. ”

Arka nodded.

With his hands crossed, he saluted and disappeared in place.

Our Lady looked at the place where Arka disappeared and didn't know what to think.

"Our Lady." Menieux shouted from the side.

"Let's go."

Our Lady said that she disappeared with Menierx into her kingdom.

And beyond the world, the place where the Virgin is located is once again lit up.

The rebellious gods still have their eyes on the world, and they begin to strengthen their power and infect the world.

And the four gods and the newly ascended gods also began to cooperate with their own strength, trying their best to pull and counteract the power of these gods.

Together, they form the barrier that protects the world, for the actual barrier is long gone.

But you have to take care of the world, you have to protect the whole world, and you have to defend against other existences.

And the gods were numerous and knew enough about the world that their power inevitably began to pour into the world.

Manipulating and influencing.
