Mystery: Chaos Path

“It's not as exaggerated as you say. Although Steam did have some luck…” Will naturally didn't know the future fate of the God of Steam and Machinery, but he was indeed clear about the other party's previous fate. Comparing himself, who had held the Uniqueness for many years but failed to accommodate it, Will's expression twisted for a moment.

Because he realized that what Roland said seemed to have a possibility of coming true.

Damn it!

Will rarely cursed inwardly.

He then looked at Roland with some frustration and said, "Did you come here to cooperate with me or to piss me off?"

“I just wanted to poke your heart a little. After all, with such good conditions, it would be a pity not to poke it.” Roland replied honestly and confidently. He spread his hands and said, “Besides, these two things don’t conflict!”

Will: … …

“Can I just turn around and leave?” Will looked at Roland and asked sincerely.

“Then you’d probably be caught back by me.” Roland thought seriously for half a second before replying.

The two looked at each other, and Will then sighed and said, “Do you talk to the Sun God and the others like this too?”

“It seems that the power of fate has allowed you to see a lot of things.” Roland smiled, then spread his hands and said, “Otherwise, what else?”

“Then why haven’t they beaten you to death?” Will asked very seriously.

“They probably did think about beating me to death, but the price of beating me to death is too high.” Roland replied very frankly. He gestured casually and said, “For the sake of me alone, to have the whole world buried with me, they can’t afford that price.”

After a pause, Roland added, “Of course, the most important thing is that the benefits I can bring them far outweigh the negative emotions I bring them.”

Will choked and was silent for a few seconds before saying, “Are you so honest with everyone?”

“Honesty is an insignificant one of my many advantages.” Roland said with a smile, giving a standard answer.

At this moment, various images flashed through Will's mind, which he had seen when providing the authority of fate, including but not limited to Roland's various lies and nonsense. So he nodded and said sincerely, “Well, I believe it.”

The two then looked at each other again, and Roland tilted his head and said, “So, are you satisfied with the conditions I offered?”

The condition here naturally refers to the fact that Roland said at the beginning that he could help Will accommodate the Uniqueness.

“Are you sure the Sun God will be willing to help me?” Will raised his doubts. He looked at Roland and said, “Perhaps he would rather help Uroboros hunt me down.”

“But I never said that I would let the Sun God help you accommodate the Fate Uniqueness!” Roland blinked. Of course, he would not let the Sun God help Will accommodate the Fate Uniqueness. How embarrassing would that be for Uroboros to know!

Moreover, Roland's support for Will was originally intended to have him compete with the Creator camp and reduce his reliance on the Creator camp. How could he let the Sun God help Will?

“Not the Sun God?” Will was stunned for a moment, probably not expecting such a result.

He hesitated and looked at Roland, then said uncertainly, “The Lord of Mysteries?”

“Yes! But you also know that the Lord of Mysteries has not yet been born, so you probably have to wait a few years.” Roland didn't beat around the bush and nodded frankly.

As for how to get the Lord of Mysteries to help Will? What a joke, no matter whether the future Lord of Mysteries is Mr. Door or Klein, with Roland's relationship with them, wouldn't it be easy to ask them for a favor?

“…I have indeed felt the opportunity for the Lord of Mysteries to be born.” Will hesitated here and looked at Roland and said, “So, isn’t this just an empty check?”

“This is indeed an empty check, but I would rather call it an investment.” Roland picked up the coffee and took a sip, smiling and said, “Investing in me, a potential stock with unlimited prospects and amazing connections, isn’t that a bad choice, is it?”

Will showed a thoughtful expression, nodded a second later, and said, “Although there is a suspicion of self-praise, you are right, this is indeed not a bad choice.”

Will then looked up at Roland, showing a puzzled expression, and asked seriously, “Then what do you hope to get from me?”

Hearing this question, Roland hooked the corner of his mouth and smiled. He picked up the coffee and took a sip before slowly saying, “First, I can be considered to have a bit of a collecting hobby. I like to collect angels from various pathways that I am interested in, but Uroboros is after all a subordinate of the Sun God. I can’t dig up this corner, so I can only set my sights on you.”

The corner of Will's mouth twitched. Thinking about the various angels surrounding Roland, he had to admit that what the other party said was true. Roland probably really liked to collect angels from various pathways.

“Second…” Roland put down the coffee in his hand and looked at Will with a smile. “Although my cooperation with the Sun God camp is very pleasant now, we are after all wary of each other and cannot achieve truly close cooperation. I don’t want to rely too much on the Sun God’s side, so of course I have to find some other partners. You, who are hostile to Uroboros, are a good choice.”

“...Aren't you afraid of being heard by the True Creator for saying that?” Will didn't expect Roland to be so straightforward and spoke with some difficulty.

“I never thought of hiding it from them, or rather, they knew my attitude in this regard from the beginning.” Roland was telling the truth. Not to mention anything else, Roland had already revealed his attitude in this regard when chatting with Pales. He didn't believe that Adam hadn't paid attention at that time.

After a pause, the smile on Roland's mouth became even brighter and he said, “And I know very well that they are also wary of me. Guess if they have established a hundred plans against me? Or are they trying to win over allies to guard against me suddenly wanting to destroy the world.”

Will couldn't say anything for a while, because according to his understanding of the Creator camp, this was certain.

In the end, Will could only sigh and shouted, “You adults are too complicated. Unlike me, I just simply want to accommodate the Fate Uniqueness.”

“There’s no way, the world of adults is so cruel. Also…” Roland’s expression became serious here, and he looked at Will and said, “You are already an old vegetable gang of several thousand years old. Is it really okay to pretend to be a little white cabbage here?”

“Who said I’m several thousand years old? I’m only eight years old.” Will said without any embarrassment, and raised his head and chest, with a “I’m eight years old, I’m proud” meaning.

“In this regard, Uroboros can’t compare to you. He doesn’t have your natural shamelessness.” Roland said with emotion.

“Can’t compare to you, you are the real shameless one.” Will looked at Roland seriously and said, “I’m just adhering to the principle of experiencing different stages of life seriously since it’s a restart. Children should have the appearance of children.”
