Mystery: The Ultimate Tarot

Chapter 161 The Initial Plan

Chapter 161 The Initial Plan

Raphael didn't quite understand: "You mean, I'm very similar to the first humans?"

"It's not that you're very similar, but that you inherited all the gifts they received," "The Beginning" said. "The gifts bestowed upon humanity in the past made humanity a very special race from the moment it appeared."

Some researchers of mysticism claim that all things possess divinity, equivalent to the original creator, living within each human being. This theory is correct to some extent.

"Because your spirit was designed by the Creator, and you live on the Creator's corpse, constantly influenced by the Creator, a part of your spiritual world is connected to the Creator, and that part of your spirit can even be regarded as part of the Creator's spirit."

"Back then, the gifts the Ancients gave to humanity were unintentional, but now they are very important to the Ancients. The Outer Gods of the stars need humanity to influence the situation on Earth. Humanity can also carry out their will and provide a more stable and powerful anchor. Even if there is a lack of suitable sacrifices, they can still throw people onto the altar."

Raphael frowned. "It sounds like humanity is a tragedy!"

"Initially" continued, "Let's not discuss this issue for now, let's get back to the main topic."

"The Fallen Mother Goddess" gave you the ability to reproduce, but this ability later deviated completely from her original design. The characteristics of the human race were first diluted, and then you even showed signs of atavism.

"You possess a powerful spirit and a robust spiritual body, all due to your ancestral origins," while your physical body can be enhanced through magical potions.

"Situations like yours are rare. In the future, with my help, even if you become part of the past, you will still retain a considerable degree of humanity."

"As long as you live, I will have a solid foundation of power, and I will be able to continuously gather human emotions and humanity through you, and keep strengthening myself."

""

Raphael pondered for a moment before saying, "It sounds like I'm some kind of ancient sun god, painstakingly becoming a quasi-Old One, only to have 'God' jump out and reap the rewards."

"I am different from both God and the Celestial Venerable." "Initially," it said, "I represent humanity, and pure humanity at that. I cannot so easily erode the consciousness of others as divinity does."

"This is the influence of the new rules established by the Creator during the last awakening: the extraordinary is the mainstream of the universe."

"One of the most obvious effects of this rule is that divinity can easily erode humanity, while it is extremely difficult for humanity to resist divinity."

"If I wanted to corrupt you, the most I could do would be give you another personality. But you've already created one for yourself, so what's one more like me?"

Raphael said, "You can't say that. The personality I created is also myself, and it's quite strange that we, who are not related, are suddenly going to live together."

"That's what I think too," "The Beginning" said. "In my opinion, if I were to erode you, you would definitely resist, and then there would be serious internal strife, and I would become impure instead."

Raphael thought for a moment before saying, "Then it's settled. If I discover that you are trying to corrupt my consciousness, I will immediately turn to God or the Celestial. Because although I may occasionally go mad, I still hope to do so in my own unique way."

"Initially," he said, "I understand."

"All you need to know is that I'm not quite the same as 'God' or 'the Celestial Being.'"

Raphael then asked, "So how did you let me travel through time?"

"I didn't let you travel through time," "Initial" explained. "As I said before, you are very special."

"When the last apocalypse came, your body activated that special ability, allowing your spirit and soul to remain outside of time, between reality and illusion."

Even for the first generation of humans, there was only a very small chance of triggering such a protective mechanism.

"When I found you, I realized that you are the hope for overcoming divinity and will surely help me become the Creator."

This answer surprised Raphael: "So you just put me into this body?"

"Yes," "Initial" said, "We've helped each other out, otherwise you might have been stuck outside of time until the end of time."

"I hope our mutual support can continue." Raphael didn't care whether this was true or not: "I really hope to have your help on my extraordinary path, but I only hope to have your help."

In other words, don't make decisions for me.

"As for the future, if I'm lucky enough to become an Old One, I will provide you with the help you need, because I also quite dislike God and the Celestial Venerable."

"But how to help? How much help? That's up to me to decide, and it also depends on the help you've provided before."

"Initially," he said, "No problem."

Raphael then said seriously, "If one day I feel that you have become a threat to me, then please leave, and we can part ways amicably."

"it is good."

Raphael rose from the wooden corridor and said, "Alright, we can talk about the Dark Lodge now."

"What did you mean when you said you'd help me establish a connection between me and 'Dark Lodge'?"

"It means exactly what it says," "The Beginning" said. "I can grant you the identity of 'Master of the Dark Lodge' as the 'First Creator' and help you suppress the corruption of the Dark Lodge, which is the Shadow World, on you."

"Although you are still relatively weak now, with the help of 'Dark Lodge,' you can become incredibly powerful at times."

The "Fool you saw" is similar to you; he is essentially a "renter" of the "Source Castle," and after becoming a god, he has to pay rent.

"And you are the true master of the Dark Lodge. As you grow stronger, you will gradually assimilate the Dark Lodge, rather than the Dark Lodge assimil to you."

"Sounds good," Raphael continued, "What benefits will you get after completing this?"

Initially, he frankly stated, "I can freely enter and leave the Western Continent and the Forsaken Land," further disrupting the arrangements left by the "Celestial Venerable" and "God."

"Of course, you are free to come and go as you please in these two places."

Raphael was relieved to hear this: "Alright, let's continue to help each other."

"Okay." As soon as "Initial" finished speaking, it emitted a bright light, and the volcano in the valley erupted, while the "Source of the Curse" not far away also boiled.

Raphael felt a powerful force swirling around him.

At this moment, the second owner of the Dark Lodge opened his withered eyes again and asked Raphael, "What exactly are you here for?"

Raphael said, "I've come to collect rent from you."
