The Fool of the Gods

"Any more questions?

If not, please leave. I do have something to do... something to do."

"Yes! So much!!!"

Cheng Shi gritted his teeth and looked at the eyes in front of him. He wanted to point fingers and scold, but he didn't dare, so he had to ask with a heavy breath:

"Chaos" just summoned me and wanted me to become his messenger. You should know about this, right?"

"Yeah~ I know."

"Why do you want me to be his messenger?

Is this the same reason you asked me to give up my oath and become a believer of Destiny?

I heard other players talk about the issue of faith fusion. You are also promoting this, right?

And I am your experimental subject, right?"

Cheng Shi's thoughts finally became clear. He asked all his thoughts and guesses in one go, and then looked at those eyes quietly, waiting for a response.

He was not sure whether Fraud would answer him, but he felt that He did not seem to be shy about these questions.

"You have too many questions. I don't have that much time. I can only answer one question for you. Pick one."

Cheng Shi's eyes fixed and he responded:

"Okay, then my question is:

Are all the guesses I just made correct?"

"......"

The eyes unexpectedly looked at Cheng Shi, with a hint of appreciation in their eyes.

"Not bad, you know how to use your brain."

"I learned from you, so what's your answer?"

"Hee~

I have already answered it, so that's it, time is not enough.

Well, this audience... Hee, not very pleasant.

Next time, you are not allowed to recite His prayers to the mask.

Also, I will convey your piety to Him, leave."

After saying that, his eyes blinked and disappeared on the spot, and Cheng Shi also lost his support and fell straight into the void.

No, wait!

What do you want to convey?

Is your retelling the retelling I understand?

Is it the one that let the [Gods] know my greed and let [Fate] remind me that "man and God cannot share the [birth] authority"! ?

My Lord, please, change the sheep, the clown is going to be plucked bald! ! !

No, can you look at your first collection?

The complicated thoughts followed Cheng Shi back to reality. He woke up on the roof of his building again, looking at the sun that had not yet set and fell into deep thought again.

What's the answer?

"I have already answered it."

So, what did He answer?

Not bad! ?

Cheng Shi's pupils shrank, and he straightened his back instantly.

His answer was "not bad"!

So I guessed it right!

He is indeed promoting the integration of beliefs, but Cheng Shi can understand the integration of the two beliefs of [Nothingness], but what does it mean to add a [Chaos]?

Chaos... confusion... fraud... lies...

Could it be that His original plan was to merge [fraud] and [chaos], but was intercepted by [fate]?

It's not impossible!

So I was pushed by [fate] in that [chaos] deduction trial, so quickly and coincidentally met one "self" after another, and then killed them all before the sliced ​​personality was formed.

[Fate] was preventing Him from sprouting the divinity of [chaos], and He seemed to refuse the fusion of [fraud] and [chaos].

So...

It can only be [fraud] and [chaos], or [fraud] and [fate]?

Then will He agree to merge with [fraud]?

Thinking to this point, Cheng Shi clenched the mask in his hand, and he thought of the problem he found after abandoning his oath:

The masks accumulated under the protection of [Fraud] in the early stage, now, or in the foreseeable future, seem to be insufficient...

But I, who believe in [Destiny], have no way to obtain masks, and the only way is the talent of [Fraud], the appearance of all living things!

So...

Has He agreed long ago?

Cheng Shi was stunned by his bold idea. He took out the destiny dice from his arms, put it side by side with the golden mask, and then frowned.

Faith fusion... How is it fused?

After the fusion, am I [Destiny] or [Fraud]?

Unexpectedly, as soon as this slightly "blasphemous" thought arose at this stage, Cheng Shi's vision fell into darkness again.

Ah, no, why is it here again! ?

...

This is the third time Cheng Shi has ascended the dark and boundless void today.

In front of him was the pair of eyes filled with spirals and stars again, but this time, the corners of the eyes were slightly cold, and the eyes exuded indifference.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he recognized the person in front of him's Him!

[Destiny]!

His true benefactor has come.

His heart skipped a beat, thinking that the benefactor should not have come to call him to task after hearing that [Fraud] had relayed something incredible, right?

But just in case, he still had to take the initiative to attack [God]!

So Cheng Shi's face became solemn, and he expressed his loyalty with great piety:

"Praise the great God of [Destiny]. You pluck the strings of [Nothingness] and play the music of all living things, making all changes in the world unpredictable and making the past and the future sing the predetermined echoes.

It is a great honor to be summoned by you again. Your most humble and most devout believer, Cheng Shi...

Greetings to you."

As he spoke, he quickly bowed his head and touched his chest, using his 90-degree bent body to cover his nose-touching action.

"..."

It was so embarrassing. The excessive performance not only failed to show piety, but also exposed his identity as a clown.

This kind of cover-up may still work in front of players, but in front of a [Him]...

It's like running naked.

But his eyes were not angry, he just stared at Cheng Shi silently, without saying a word.

Cheng Shi didn't hear any movement for a long time, and when he looked up quietly, he met that look of neither joy nor sorrow.

"..."

Sweating profusely, limited-time return.

What's going on with this inexplicable sense of oppression?

Why doesn't He speak?

Didn't He summon me? Why did he wait for me to speak first?

What should I say? Confess?

No, my blasphemous behavior should not be considered a serious crime compared to before, right?

Although he found many excuses for himself, Cheng Shi glanced at the still silent eyes nervously, and decided to "confess" first.

"My Lord, I can...explain!

Just now I just took the wrong token, I didn't mean to be disrespectful..."

At this time, the cold eyes finally spoke.

"What token?"

"Huh?"

Cheng Shi was dumbfounded.

You don't know?

[Fraud] didn't tell you anything?

It seems like nothing...then why did you call me here?

Cheng Shi laughed awkwardly, touched his nose and said, "Nothing, I remembered it wrong."

The eyes condensed, and said coldly, "He just saw you."

"..."

How to say it, there is suddenly an inexplicable... sense of betrayal...

Cheng Shi put down his hand stiffly, not daring to speak or respond.

"Hmph, He really hasn't given up his vain fantasies!" After a cold laugh, the eyes turned to Cheng Shi with a little admiration, "You haven't turned away from the path of [Destiny] and chose to embrace [Chaos], that's good."

"......As it should be, as it should be." Cheng Shi was flattered by the sudden praise.

"But [Destiny] is still changing, and illusions may become real..."

Hearing this, Cheng Shi was surprised to find that the pair of eyes in front of him, which had always been indifferent, became even colder at this moment.

He seemed angry.

But it must not be his anger, as for whose anger...

Cheng Shi hurriedly lowered his head and pretended not to understand, and then heard the eyes continue to say:

"Although you have firmly walked on the right path, you must know that [Destiny] can also go astray."

"......"

Cheng Shi was stunned, thinking: I know, I know too much, I have personally gone astray.

"I have the name of [Destiny] on my head, I hold the authority of [Destiny], I know the essence of the universe, and I already know all the past and countless futures.

In those countless futures, He...

[Fraud] lost the help of [Destiny]'s children, went astray, and no longer had a happy face.

As a brother god of [Nothingness], although I don't need to change His fate, I should also give Him appropriate mercy."

No, wait...

My Lord, what are you talking about?

What a mess, you are not pretending to be [Fraud], are you?

Cheng Shi looked up in surprise, looking at the eyes in front of him with a confused face, and then saw the spiral in the eyes spinning like layers, as if a lonely rotating single chain suddenly had a shadow.

The two layers of spirals overlapped and entangled, and after a while, they exuded a mysterious and mysterious [Nothingness] power.

As soon as this force appeared, it quickly condensed in the void and instantly turned into a vague black figure, smashing towards Cheng Shi's head without warning.

Cheng Shi instinctively wanted to retreat but found that he had been locked in place and could not move.

"Today, I have given a new oracle, ordering Cheng Shi, a believer in [Destiny], to temporarily take back [Deception][Fraud] Divine power, give a helping hand to the poor [God] abandoned by [Fate] as appropriate.

As a reward for this decree, I will grant you the power to drive [Nothingness]. "

"No, huh?" Cheng Shi's pupils trembled, this seemed to be the real [Fate]!

"Boom——"

He only felt a soul force violently rushing into his sea of ​​consciousness, and then his eyes rolled back and he fainted.

Watching Cheng Shi falling into the void, the spinning spiral slowly stopped turning, his eyes were still indifferent, just like the eternal void, without joy or sorrow.

"It is determined..."

...
