I weave my destiny in parallel time and space

"What did the person who brought you into this world teach you?" Sebastian's tone was helpless.

"The true names of all true gods cannot be called directly. They will all have feelings. If they think you are disrespectful to them, you will be punished."

"Is that so?" Xia Ya nodded suddenly, "I understand, I will pay attention next time."

Sebastian's brows relaxed and he continued: "But fortunately, the God of Death is also sleeping now, and he will not wake up because you called his true name."

After a pause, he said with some doubts, "But... few people even within the Death God know that adult's real name, so why do you know it?"

"I used to listen to more myths." Xia Ya said truthfully.

It seems that the names he mentioned are correct. The gods of death and sleep they mentioned should come from Greek mythology.

"Myth?" Sebastian was even more confused. He really couldn't remember any myths about the God of Death.

The God of Death did not have a high status in the pantheon in the past, and was feared by many people, so naturally no myths were passed down.

"What about the other gods?" Xia Ya continued to ask.

"The gods exist based on concepts." Sebastian said, "Due to various reasons, the rise of new gods, and the progress of human civilization, the world is gradually being analyzed, and people are gradually losing their respect for gods. .

The power of the gods became weaker and weaker as the ages progressed. Some gods died, while others fell into eternal sleep.

But in this world, there are two concepts that will never disappear as long as humans still exist. "

"Death and sleep," Char said.

"You are very smart," Sebastian praised. "The two adults, Death and Sleep, have been given higher missions in the new era. Death manages the order of the dead, while sleep manages the order of dreams, balancing illusion and reality."

Xia Ya nodded, "Thank you for telling me this."

"You're welcome, it's just some basic knowledge."

Sebastian said that he looked at Char and said seriously: "In the decades since I became the God of Death, this is the first time I have seen the existence of a wizard.

Even some of my seniors have never seen a wizard.

I have heard some of my older predecessors describe your abilities. Some of you can even play with souls, and this is my area of ​​responsibility.

If you don't know these basic knowledge and rules, you will cause unnecessary trouble to me. "

"You can solve this problem now." Xia Ya said with interest.

But Sebas shook his head, "I don't know your strength, and I don't know if I can defeat you. If I can, I may be able to defeat you once and for all, but if I can't, I will be in trouble for no reason.

Also, you might have teachers who, even if I could kill you, might get you into trouble.

But now we don't have any conflicts of interest or contradictions, so I don't need to take this risk.

If possible, I hope we can become friends.

My sense of mission is not strong. For me, "Death" is just a profession, but I don't want to lose this job.

If you give me a convenience, I can also give you a convenience. "

"You live a very transparent life." Xia Ya smiled, "My name is Xia Ya. I live in the Imperial Capital, 221B Doyle Street. Nice to meet you."

Sebastian also smiled, "I will take this guy to hell to be judged next. When I have time, I will definitely come to your door to have a drink with you."

Xia Ya raised his eyebrows and joked, "It seems unlucky to be visited by the God of Death."

“I have a shop in the Imperial City, where I’ll be most of the time, 122c Cole Street.”

Sebastian said, holding one end of the chain with one hand and stepping on the nightmare. At the same time, he raised his other hand and an ancient parchment appeared in his hand. The parchment opened automatically like a bird fluttering its wings. , he looked at the words in the book and read to the nightmare.

"Haculus, the dream demon, you have violated Article 3 of the Hell Management Regulations by entering the human world without permission, and Article 32 by occupying a human body.

You will be taken back to hell, judged, and given the most severe punishment! "

Aos opened his eyes slightly, and there was obviously more fear in his eyes. He struggled violently, but soon, the chains continued to spread to the upper half of his face that was still exposed in the air, and his whole person was bound by the chains. The version is like a mummy.

"What is that?" Xia Ya asked curiously, looking at the book in his hand.

"The Book of the Dead." Sebas said, "It is an artifact given to the God of Death by the three goddesses of fate. Of course, the one in my hand is just a copy. The real original book is in the hands of that gentleman.

The names of all the nearby people who are about to die will appear in this book, along with the location, and I just need to guide the souls based on the information above.

And at the same time, everyone's lifespan, name, life experience, etc. can be found on it. Even the devil can find some information. Of course, the real name cannot be found.

Only the true God or some other special beings cannot be found. "

Xia Ya looked at the book with some curiosity. On the page were three goddesses with their eyes closed. They seemed to be the three goddesses of fate he mentioned.

It's probably something similar to the Book of Life and Death, Xia Ya thought to herself.

"Then can you check me?" Xia Ya asked, "I want to know how long I can live."

"This" Sebastian showed a little embarrassment on his face.

"No?" Xia Ya asked.

"When the God of Death is active in this world, it is inevitable that he will make some friends in the human world, so it is not without the God of Death showing the Book of the Dead to mortals."

Sebastian said seriously, "However, everyone is afraid of death. When you know the date of death of yourself or the most important person, you will always have the idea of ​​changing everything."

"Has anyone done this before?" Xia Ya asked with interest.

Sebas nodded, "The final result was not beautiful.

All the names shown in the Book of the Dead have been decreed by fate to die. This is a certain number.

All those who try to resist fate must pay a price.

Although the person whose death was interfered with did live for a while longer, by the time he died, a person who should not have died died because of him.

The one who interfered with his death.

Even the God of Death who leaked the information was affected. "

Cause and effect?...

Char thought.

This is no different from the knowledge he gained from the old man.

Every kind of cause has its effect. To reverse such a big cause and effect as a given death, one must pay the same amount of death.

Destiny is determined, but there are also variables.

Since that man lived a few more years, his destiny had actually been changed.

It's just that those who took action to change their destiny paid a heavy price.

If someone who can afford the price takes action to change his fate, maybe there will be another ending.

But those who can afford the price may only be gods, who are more powerful than humans.

But changing human destiny means nothing to God.

God, on the other hand, cannot afford to change the fate of gods...

"Since that's the case, let's forget it." Xia Ya said, "It's not something you need to know, and I think I should be able to live for a long time."

"Indeed, wizards generally live long lives." Sebas nodded.

"Then, I'll leave first, I have something else to do." Xia Ya said.

Sebastian nodded and said, "I also want to send this nightmare to Hades."

"Remember to come to me for a drink." Xia Ya smiled.

With that said, Xia Ya also turned around and flew away from here.

Sebas did not leave immediately, but watched Char's leaving figure. Suddenly, he opened the Book of the Dead in his hand and pointed it at Char who was gradually moving away.

The Book of the Dead in his hand was flipping through it like a bird flapping its wings, and it was searching for Char's information in the book.

He hadn't seen a wizard in the human world for a long time, so he was very curious about Char's experience.

At first, Silas's expression was calm, but as time passed, his expression changed from calm, to doubt, to confusion.

After five minutes passed, he looked at the book he was still searching in his hand, his expression completely losing its previous calmness.

His Adam's apple moved, he swallowed hard, raised his head sharply, and looked at the direction where Char left with disbelief.

He had never seen the Book of the Dead take so long to retrieve a person.

In this case, there is only one possibility, and that is.

There is no record of the person in front of me in the Book of the Dead.

And only true god-level existences cannot be retrieved.

Silas thought of Char's previous words and deeds.

"Is your first god of death named Thanatos?"

Calling death by its name, there was no awe or fear in his tone, only disapproval and indifference, as if he was addressing a junior whom he had not seen for a long time.

He had originally thought that this was just the wizard's ignorance, but now he thought about it.

How many people in this world know the true name of death?

Speaking of which, wizards have not appeared for hundreds of years.

Over the years, mystery has been declining rapidly. There is no soil for wizards to survive, and it is even more impossible for new wizards to emerge.

The sudden appearance of such a wizard at this moment is simply too weird.

There is only one possibility. This "wizard" may have lived hundreds of years ago, or even earlier.

No, I can't find it in the Book of the Dead. He can't be a wizard. He is a far more terrifying existence than that.

Silas's hair stood up slightly, and the nightmare turned into a ball of black smoke and disappeared.
