- At that moment, Ivas felt a kind of silent suffocation, even suffocating to the point of dizziness.

Although there was a lot of evidence before, and Ivas already had a premonition in his heart......

But how he wished that his adoptive father would give him a negative answer at this moment.

Although Eivas became wary of Professor Moriarty after awakening the memories of his past life...... But he did respect his adoptive father.

Not only because of the other party's profound knowledge, not only because the other party took in and raised him and Yulia, but also because Professor Moriarty has a humble and gentle character. When Ivas was young, he longed for his adoptive father's calm, wise and gentle temperament, and not arrogant or impatient.

That's what Ivas thinks of as a "perfect man".

So from Ivus's point of view, he didn't really want to be an enemy of his adoptive father. Not to mention the grace of nurturing.

But if he kills Ivus's biological parents first and then adopts Ivus, it is completely different in nature from Ivus, who is an orphan.

"Was it a surprise?"

The robin didn't react in particular, but asked, "You should have guessed it a long time ago." ”

“…… The reason? ”

Ivus asked in a deep voice, "What is the reason?" ”

"Of course, it's the fear of Jacob. Now that you've come into contact with Cardinal Loki, you know you're a key key. I'm guessing you already know about Jacob's taboo research...... Right.

"In a mortal body, to reach a miracle that the gods could not accomplish even - the restoration of souls and the creation of life. He even wanted to create gods, or even transcend them...... It is worthy of being the world's top transcendent, and it does have a unique spirit. ”

…… Swamp people?

The thought crossed Aives' mind.

Seeing the slight movement of Ivas's eyes, the jewel bird showed an extremely human smile - it may be strange to say this, but only in this "two-dimensional style" fairy country can you really see a bird laughing.

"It seems that you already know that you are the illusory egg he created. But that's not a good enough statement. It would be more accurate to put it ...... You're actually Jacob's experiment. ”

“…… Experiment? ”

"You are indeed the child of Julio and Anne, who transformed and stuffed into a sacred entity. The nature of the divine entity, I think, should also be understood. ”

"Fragments of the Celestial Division...... Is it? ”

"Looks like you're moving a little faster than I expected."

The jewel bird nodded appreciatively: "Exactly." So strictly speaking, you are not exactly in harmony with the rest of his creation. For you are unique and special—the quality of the divine entity, very different from the other 'contents'.

"So, let me ask you one more question, Ivace......

"Do you know where you and Yulia should be according to Jacob's original plan?"

- Yulia.

Ivace's pupils twitched slightly.

He had thought before that Yulia might also be the swamp man created by Jacob. But now he has finally received confirmation from Professor Moriarty.

Because Yulia has the blood of Heracross, she is the royal blood of the long-lost Herasr Empire, and she is also the egg of the illusion. And the Flame Butterfly itself is also special - the little butterfly Leah is a unique illusion, which means that she is not reincarnated, but a new illusion.

So the question is, why did the newborn phantom appear in Yulia's body alone?

These small probability events are piled together, then it is not a coincidence that it is most probable.

At that time, Professor Moriarty suddenly began to adopt children, and it was very likely that it was a "carrot and a pit" type of adoption.

He first determined that Evas and Yulia would enter the orphanage, and then carried out the adoption plan and adopted them a few years later. In the years when there was a vacancy in the middle, they may have been vigilantly observing them.

Ivus was killed because of her parents, and Yulia for what?

"That's the biggest difference between you and Yulia."

Professor Moriarty replied, "She does not have parents, and you do." Or rather, your shell is a complete baby; And Yulia's shell is nothing more than cultivated flesh and blood. ”

“…… Flame Butterfly, what the hell is it? ”

"I don't know. Perhaps only Jacob knows. But I know...... According to his plan, you were supposed to be entrusted to Bishop Mathers. Yulia, on the other hand, was supposed to be adopted by the Bartons. ”

"Mr. and Mrs. Patton......

Ivus chewed slowly on the somewhat unfamiliar name.

Then he finally remembered who the Bartons were—the Great Guardians!

David and Yulia are the same age, and Yulia is only a little over a month older than Barton.

If Yulia is adopted by the Great Guardian, then she should be David's sister. In that case, it is almost impossible for her to come into contact with alchemy, but there is a high probability that she will choose to join the army. She would then become an air cavalry officer and an officer in Avalon...... But what's the point?

The only thing that has anything to do with this is probably Yulia's strange characteristics when she was a child.

As Ivus remembers, Yulia had terrifying powers at a very young age, even when she was a baby. It wasn't until she became literate and knew her name that her innate divine powers began to decline dramatically. It wasn't until the day she was adopted, when she resisted not to leave Ivus, that she barely burst out with that divine power.

But Ivas knew that the kind of strange power that many strong men couldn't compete with was not Yulia's peak state at all. If Yulia had the power of her prime, those people would have been strangled or torn apart by her. It was precisely because she was too powerless at the time that she could only passively wrestle with everyone there.

This characteristic......

…… Could it be that Yulia is really suitable for the melee class?

"Hehe, do you see that?"

Bird James chuckled, "You can't help but deduce too." This is what I call 'knowledge is toxic'. You only know part of the truth about this statement, and you can't help but start to speculate on the 'possibility of the future.'" How could an astrologer who knew almost all the secrets of the present world resist the urge to deduce the future?

"Yes, I did kill your parents—but that was just an early death. According to Jacob's plan, they would have died on the island of glass. Otherwise, how would you be raised by Bishop Mathers? ”

Although in front of Ivus was only a blue gem crystal bird.

But Ivas seemed to see the man sitting upright with his fingers crossed.

"In that sense, it was Jacob who really murdered them."

Professor Moriarty whispered.

Even though his current image is devoid of majesty, his words are still powerful: "Jacob planned it all, Anne chose to accept it, and Giulio chose to sacrifice." I have ruined Jacob's plan by bringing forward their destined deaths—but even if I hadn't, they would have been sacrificed by Jacob.

"—Excuse me, then, is it really me who killed them? When the gunman pulls the trigger, is it the gun, the gunman, or the person who hired the gunman? When the kidnappers decide to tear up the ticket and detonate the bomb, killing them with the hostages, they kill them with a spell and injure the hostages by mistake...... Is this a failed rescue, or a successful murder?

"Or to put it more clearly - was it the cursed master I hired to kill them, or Jacob's 'great plan'? Rather, it is because I have ruined Jacob's plan that I have been able to save you from the 'fate' you have rejected, Aihuas. I am your variable.

"I think, compared to the grace of nurturing, this kind of kindness against fate...... It's bigger for you, right. ”

Bird James's tone was extremely calm, as if he were chatting on a daily basis. There is not the slightest passion or impulse.

But that's why it's ...... His words are so demagogic.

Ivas knew rationally that he was secretly changing concepts, but his current thoughts were a little chaotic and he couldn't organize the logic for a while.

But he also knew the most crucial and decisive word.

That's what James himself called at the promotion ceremony - "my little key".

So, Ivus spoke, his tone sharper and more aggressive: "Then I...... And why did it become your key?

"What the hell am I the key to unlocking something? It can't be the damn birdcage of yours, Father! ”

"Do you know [Cicada Molting]?"

James asked rhetorically.

“…… Leads to the second pillar god easier, the first pillar god is easier event? Ivas replied.

"Hmm. From the "cicada" to a major event. Since then, history has been torn apart...... There is a great being called the 'Reincarnation Celestial', and because of this, it has lost the power to constantly restart the world. ”

James said word for word: "But strictly speaking, it is not [loss], but [abandonment]. It's not that the world can't be restarted, but it can't be restarted until it was before the cicada molts. ”

Hearing this, Aihuas's eyes widened slightly.

He guessed what James meant.

"As I said above, 'The things that determine which way you're going to go are already decided, and your answer will be the same even if you do it a hundred times.'"

"The past may not be unchangeable. Just find the right key and the right door...... The locked history of the past can be restarted again.

"And now, we're halfway there—you're the key I've found, Ihuas.

"You are not a fragment of the Celestial Division, but a fragment of the Reincarnation Division.

"Therefore, you can open the door to the past. We can...... Change everything.

"Whether it's Julio's life or death, or Jacob's plan...... Even the division of Herasr, the establishment of Avalon, the birth of humans and elves, the self-sacrifice of the giant tree...... and, the change of the pillar gods. The fall of the highest heavens, the advent of the crown, the solo dance of the eternal self...... Until the end of the First Age. Since the day amber was born, everything can be chosen again. ”

The deep voice seemed to have a demonic nature: "Everything still has a chance." All...... are full of opportunities.

"Isn't that good?"
