Shepherd Tantra

Chapter 1076 Pillar Goddess Isabel?

So, after Albert left the Glass Island, the old queen never sent anyone to bring him back - maybe Sophia was worried that Albert had led Isabel astray.

Because of this, when her only direct children left were Andrew who had already taken over part of the political power, Albert who was traveling, and Prince John who was only two years old, she directly agreed that Isabel, who had just become a transcendent and was still on the path of beauty, would inherit the throne.

However, Janice hardly taught Isabel any "inheritance" of extraordinary powers, but instead laid the foundation for her.

Before she came of age, she wasn't even given any skills - even the Great Guardian had taught his underage son many skills.

It was as if he was deliberately keeping Isabel in a blank slate with a good foundation.

This may also be the reason why she was not anxious and calm about the curse on the royal family. But after a certain number of her children died, she couldn't help but say that they could leave the Glass Island, so that the curse would not follow them - this is what Isabel said in her death diary.

The old queen probably saw some kind of future.

She even gave Isolde's Tears, the only necklace that could resist the curse, to Isabel early on.

In that future, the Avalon Shadow Ritual was not contaminated. That was why she firmly believed that the Avalon Shadow Ritual, which had never been activated, could run normally and bring about the results she wanted.

So Lancelot successfully came to Avalon, and Isabelle became...

“…God.”

Sherlock also murmured in a low voice: "If you become a god, you don't need any political literacy. It can even be said that... if you understand too much authoritarian thought, it will pollute your mind..."

He glanced at Aiwass, apparently thinking the same thing as Aiwass.

Tianshi doesn't need to maintain the purity of his mind. Although Tianshi, as a phantom demon, can only possess one Tao essence, he can master the abilities of multiple Taos at the same time and naturally possess the thoughts of multiple Taos.

There is only one being that needs to be kept clean.

——Pillar God.

If we look at it from this perspective...

Aiwass whispered, "Isabel has never been exposed to any authoritarian education since she was a child, which strips away the possibility of authority. She is the only heir to the royal family and the future queen, so there is no room for transcendence."

"me……"

Isabel whispered.

Aiwass nodded and turned to look at Isabel: "In another possibility of the world, the destroyed Avalon made you understand that nothing is eternal; and on the road of escape, you always have me by your side, so you don't have to worry about survival, and therefore you don't need to actively learn to adapt to the world.

"You will also experience the disaster of trees and amber in the Theocracy, and thus understand the nature of devotion; you have not learned much cultural knowledge and are not good at reasoning and calculation, so wisdom and balance are not suitable for you.

"And you also have a strong adaptability to the path of love—"

So Prince Albert and Inelise had sex only once, but that one time made her pregnant.

Isabel became pregnant after Aiwas had sex with her for the first time.

In the world line of the Queen of Flowers, she sacrificed her "love", lost the ability to love, and gained an extremely powerful power...that could compete with Tiansi.

Originally, Aiwas thought that it was because Isabel's love path instinct was particularly strong. Therefore, she received such a generous reward after the sacrifice... But now it seems that it was actually the last step of the ceremony.

Isabel was quietly stripped of the adaptability of many paths and achieved "pure beauty".

——A pure and single path!
All the misfortunes that happened to Isabel were actually meant to gradually strip away her personality so that she could become pure beauty.

Once you realize this, you will immediately notice that the traces of manipulation behind the scenes are so obvious.

After hearing what Aiwass said, everyone present reacted one after another. It was not that they were not smart enough, but that the information they knew was different and incomplete.

And Queen Sofia was just a pawn being used.

"But...what is the purpose?"

Yasen couldn't help but ask, "Is it still the Box of Nothingness...?"

He subconsciously thought of the terrible enemy he met early this morning.

Able to rewrite minds and manipulate facts, so that history can develop in the direction one wants...

"Humph," the Grand Duke of Vendôme sneered, "Do I even need to ask? Of course it's for the purpose of creating a god."

"Isn't the Twin Mirror the Pillar God of the Path of Beauty?" Edward said uncertainly, "But I remember... the Bishop told me that the Twin Mirror was one of the original Pillar Gods."

"I heard that the Pillar of Transcendence of the Eighth Path will be replaced..."

Anne said the same thing and looked at Aiwass uncertainly.

"I have another question."

Aiwass did not answer the question, but looked at Anne: "I hope you can give me an answer..."

"…You tell me, Aiwass. I'll do my best to answer."

"——What I want to ask is, between you and my real mother, who is the swamp man? Who is the real body?"

"Swamp Man..."

Anne said this in a daze, with a flash of realization in her eyes - only then did she realize for sure that Aiwass really knew everything.

So despite her loss, she actually felt relieved and relaxed with some gratitude.

"Swamp man... You mean my father... I mean, the technology developed by Mr. Jacob. It was indeed done in the swamp..."

Anne said softly, "'Soul Mirror Ritual'. Use a mirror to copy an identical soul, and then use his artificial human technology to create an identical body.

“…Then my answer to you is, I don’t know.”

"Why?" Aiwass asked back.

“Because,” Anne paused, “after completing that ritual, I looked into the eyes of another me through a mirror-like window.

"...In our hearts, we all think that we are the original body. Or...Mr. Jacob did not tell me which one of us is the original prototype.

"My original idea was to let my real body stay and accept the curse of fate with Julio. I was the only one who could go home to comfort my father. It's a blessing that the Ten Days War was resolved peacefully. If I died in Avalon or didn't go back... my father would really start a war."

Hearing this, the old man snorted coldly, but he obviously knew about this matter, so he didn't say anything.

Anne bit her lip and said, "We...can't tell whether we are the original or the copy. Mr. Jacob is unwilling to tell us this either.

"He just let us discuss and decide whether to stay or go. And only after we really finished the discussion did Mr. Jacob tell us why he did it.

"He said that even if two souls are completely mirror images and identical, there will be subtle differences... that is the difference in destinies.

“It’s like a torsion balance experiment, where the invisible force becomes clear through multiple magnifications.

"He said, 'Only between two individuals whose bodies and souls are completely identical, the small power of fate becomes apparent.' Whoever decides to go back is fit to go back; whoever decides to stay is fit to stay."

"Do you accept this fate?"

Aiwass asked softly.

"...Of course not."

Anne shook her head slightly with some sadness. "I woke up countless times in the night, wondering what would happen if I stayed. I dreamed about my life with Giulio, dreamed that I gave birth to a cute boy, and dreamed about another possibility. In the end... I dreamed about my and his death. I dreamed that we were disemboweled, but still hugged each other.

"But from that day on, I no longer had such dreams. At that time, I vaguely realized something.

“…I cried a lot that day.”

When Sherlock heard Anne's words, he suddenly thought of something.

He opened his eyes wide and looked at Aiwass: "Aiwass, you ask these questions, do you mean--"

"Well, I think... the one who made the Queen see the wrong future and caused everything to happen... the one who manipulated fate might be Jacob."

Aiwass whispered, "He who knows the future, touches reincarnation, and understands fate... is a devout apostle of Huantiansi. My grandfather Jacob...

"He is trying to create a new Pillar God. Or..."

…or more than one.
