Chapter 548 The Heartbeats in Dreams and Outside of Dreams

Little Allen stroked his chin thoughtfully and said, "Fighting the enemy is nothing more than uniting all forces that can be united. Currently, we have two and a half people we can unite with."

Allen: "Two and a half?"

"The creator god is that half."

—The "half" in "half-dead and half-alive".

Don't count on Him at all. At most, He'll just block out gods and humans for you, and that's considered his contribution.

Olsteed is one.

—Single-minded.

All he can think about is vengeful gods. If you ask him for help, he'll definitely tell you to kill the gods first, and not to be unrealistic.

Allen's lips twitched: "And there's one more?"

"He's a cuckold. His attention is only focused on 'gods'. If you can't fight against the gods, he might just betray you. Lala is a prime example of this."

Furthermore, you must understand that Alan, the God of Destruction, is also a god.”

"I understand, no need to say anything more."

Allen rubbed his forehead, feeling dizzy from the sheer strength of the "friendly" forces.

Even if he coerced them into helping him with some benefits, would they be able to create favorable conditions for the struggle between 'Allen' and the God of Destruction?

At the same time, he remembered the last time he pushed open the door, there was a world-destroying god whose shape, appearance, and appearance were indistinguishable, and whose head would split open just by the presence of the other party.

'Allen' sat on the edge of the bed, half of his body swallowed by the mouth-like vortex of the God of Destruction, yet he still cheerfully greeted himself.

Little Allen, noticing Allen's tense expression, said:
"What? Feeling guilty? Do you think that whether it's the Human God Allen who hasn't merged with the God of Annihilation or the Human God Allen who has merged with the God of Annihilation, he has helped you at every stage, so you want to help him in return?"

Allen remained silent.

Little Allen added, "But the meaning behind his last words was clearly that he wanted you to gather the four god-level healing magic spells before coming to see Him."

Even a god of destruction needs to be at the level of a god to add weight to the scales. There are only so many pieces on the chessboard.

You know it, and He knows it too.

Allen narrowed his eyes: "That's the problem. There are only so many pieces. I really can't think of any that are useful. Even if He makes me gather a god-level healing magic circle and I successfully meet Him, what good will it do?"

Aside from answering some of my questions, He didn't seem to get anything from me. Could he really solve his predicament by just chatting with me? Even if I followed His example this time and used humans and gods as fusion materials, would that really help Him?

No matter how I think about it, I feel that this path has too many uncontrollable factors, which would only make the situation more chaotic and could easily break the balance that He is carefully maintaining.

After saying this, Little Allen lowered his head.

He stroked his chin, his eyes deep and mysterious.

Allen suddenly raised his eyebrows: "Wait, do you think the human goddess Lala can provide assistance?"

Little Allen looked up: "Lala the Human Goddess??"

Allen nodded: "Do you remember my system message? The human god Lala clearly mentioned that after I broke free from the cycle of reincarnation, she could still communicate with me through the system. Does that mean she is still inside the human god's body? In that case, as long as I kill the human god and Lala becomes the new human god, she can be of help."

Although her intentions in maintaining communication with me through the system weren't entirely pure, and she wasn't strictly "on my side," she seemed like someone I could sit down and talk to; at least our goal of killing the god was aligned. The enemy of my enemy isn't necessarily my friend, but he can also become my ally.

Little Allen pinched his brow and thought for a moment: "Are you sure the human goddess Lala still exists?"

Allen frowned, pondering as he said:

"According to the worldline theory proposed by Orsteed and Rudy, she should exist."

Even though Lala, the human-god, exists in the 'future' of the original story in Rudy's timeline, she created the system for me at the point when she merged with the human-god, summoned me, and threw me into the reincarnation secret technique she had constructed.

My 'past' and her 'future' are still connected. Time reversal and the secret art of reincarnation act as a filter, not affecting the real world line.

At this point, Allen's eyebrows furrowed into a knot.

The logic doesn't hold up.

Lala Grerat's message did indeed say that she could contact her through the system later.

The problem is that by then, Allen had already broken free of the reincarnation technique and entered the real timeline.

The moment the Great Shift occurred, the world line broke away from the original timeline of 'Lala the Goddess summons Eren' and became a jobless reincarnation world line belonging to Eren himself.

He paused for a moment, then said hesitantly, "Could it be that through the system, she can communicate with people from different timelines?"

Little Allen said decisively, "Impossible. The reason she can communicate with you in the Reincarnation Secret Technique is because the Reincarnation Secret Technique is a 'black box' outside the timeline, and she created this 'black box' herself."

Allen then said, "So she was lying to me? But Lala Boreas Greirat confirmed her words."

Little Allen was silent for a moment, then took out his book, "24 Billys," tore off a page, took out a pen, placed the paper on the wall, and began to write and draw.

Allen leaned closer and watched him put pen to paper.

swish swish swish
A moment later, he put away his pen and handed the paper to Allen:

"have a look."

(Little Allen wrote less information than this; the female protagonist's storyline, the parts marked in red, were not mentioned. There are no descriptions of major events on the timeline connected to the main storyline.)
Allen took the paper, looked at it for a while, and his expression became somewhat serious:
"Why is this handwriting so ugly?"

Little Allen paused for a moment, then raised his leg and kicked Allen.

"How old were you when you were in the orphanage? Don't you have any idea what your handwriting was like?"

Allen coughed lightly, somewhat embarrassed.

Little Allen pointed to the paper.

—Outside the square drawn by the Reincarnation Secret Technique, two straight lines extend out. The lower one is marked with the world line of the archipelago and the abyss, briefly marking the events Allen encountered in the form of time coordinates.

However, the straight line above is completely blank.

"I don't think Lala lied to you. So many things have happened recently, and you've been handling them all outside. I've been quite free here, so I've been thinking about the development direction of this Lala's birth timeline."

I also believe Lala didn't deceive you. She can indeed communicate with you, but not in the way you think—through a system traversing world lines. Rather, the human-god Lala truly exists in this world line.

Allen was taken aback for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening:

"You mean, like Aisha, you use world magic to return, reincarnate into your own body, force the creator god to clean up her mess, and merge the original world line with the world line I follow as the main storyline, because apart from my existence, the major events on both sides are almost the same?"

Little Allen chimed in: "This deduction is in her best interest. In this way, Rudy still lived out his life, and Lala also gained a good helper. However, she is still wary of you. After you are born, she will continue to communicate with you through the system to make it easier to control you."

Little Allen quickly wrote the major events from the original story onto the blank world line, adding a sentence at the point of Lala's birth: "World lines merged, and the human-god Lala was reincarnated." "In this way, we can deduce a lot of things."

The selection criterion for the reincarnation secret technique designed by the first Dragon God to house Orsteed was: Orsteed had to find a way to completely defeat the god-man.

What do you think are the selection criteria for the reincarnation technique Lala designed for you?

Eren stared at the timeline, pondering the extremely pragmatic word "benefit" that Eren had mentioned, and remained silent for a moment before speaking:
"I need to follow the main storyline of the original work and bring about Lala's birth in order to escape the filter."

Little Allen nodded: "There should be one more thing: find a way to stop the world from ending, or create a past that can be beneficial to 'stopping the world from ending'."

Allen said, "But Lala failed; she was betrayed by Laplace."

Little Allen said, "Isn't this a kind of success? Laplace betrayed her precisely because he thought Lala was no good and that the gods and humans were more likely to stop the destruction of the world."

Lala's selection criteria include creating a past that can be beneficial to 'preventing the end of the world'.

She died, and the divine achievement was accomplished, perfectly fulfilling the selection criteria.

Allen:
The logic is closed.

Little Allen continued, "To continue speculating, after Lala's death, in that timeline, you sought help from Orsteed, and through the Divine Jade or other dragon clan secret arts, established a connection with the unclaimed Reincarnation Secret Arts, changing the selection criteria to: not following the original main storyline and preventing the destruction of the world."

He tapped the next straight line in the Reincarnation Secret Technique with his pen; this was the world line where Allen was located.
"That's why you escaped the cycle of reincarnation this time. You thought it was outrageous that Lala helped you build your own mother's harem, right? Now it makes perfect sense. I think you were the one who wanted to build the harem... Waaaaaah!"

Allen slapped Allen's mouth shut, which was spouting nonsense, and said through gritted teeth:

"It's clear that Lala, the human god, can't do it on her own. Based on this, it seems that she's unwilling to share the plan with others and prefers to do it all by herself. Rather than letting her take the lead and exposing all her actions to the human god's view, it would be better to completely shield the human god after the Great Transfer!"

Little Allen irritably pulled Allen's hand off:

"Wait a minute before you rush off, this is the important part I'm about to say."

"Ok?"

"But then, back in Buena Village, were you still communicating with Lala and the god through the system?"

Allen remembered the night in Mottalit.

".no."

"That is.?"

Allen looked at Little Allen: "Alan the God of Destruction, or rather, Allen who is already trying to corrupt the God of Destruction. Only by reaching his level can one ignore time and space to influence everything."

Little Allen nodded: "I believe that back in Buena Village, the ones communicating with you through the system were always the God of Destruction Allen and the God of Man. The God of Destruction Allen transformed all of Lala's guidance into words of encouragement."

The god-man is probably still in the dark, still believing that in the Samsara Secret Technique, he and Lala are controlling you simultaneously.

In other words, the vast majority, if not everything, of what you've experienced so far has been under His correction. Even so, are you still worried about Him?

Little Allen glanced sideways at Allen's face, whose expression had suddenly relaxed:
“I understand that you have been living in the shadow of God and Man ever since you came into this world, and His series of schemes have made you very nervous. Whenever you have free time, you always want to do something.”

But in my opinion, what's most important for you right now is to relax your tense shoulders, focus on the present, and indulge yourself a little more, enjoying some things you've always longed for, like getting married, having a harem, and having a certain number of children with whomever you want. Waaaaah!!!

"Why is your mind always on harem matters!"

"Let me go! I am you! You are me! I think this because you're thinking it!!!"

"You fart!!"

The conflict in my mind quickly faded and receded.

Finally, Allen woke up from his dream.

Before he even opened his eyes, he could feel the breath before his nose.
Still breathing
Allen opened his eyes and looked up abruptly.

Before him, green pupils were extremely close, so close that it seemed that if Allen moved just two more centimeters closer, he could touch the tip of his nose to the delicate tip of his nose beneath his eyelids.

Aisha leaned down and lay on top of Allen, getting very close and staring intently at his features.

Seemingly surprised by Allen's sudden awakening, her eyes flickered with a moment of panic, but she quickly regained her composure and blinked, saying, "Brother, you were sleeping so soundly, but why did your expression keep changing? Did you have a nightmare?"

Allen looked up and flicked his finger on Aisha's forehead.

"Ouch!" Aisha fell backward, but Allen reached out and pulled her back, steadily guiding her to sit on the couch next to him.

Before me was the carriage of a horse-drawn carriage.

Across from him, Auersted sat with his eyes closed, seemingly oblivious to the 'brother and sister' pair, seemingly lost in thought.

After leaving the teleportation magic circle, Allen and his companions left the valley of the Crimson Dragon's upper jaw and came to the outside world. In a small town, they hired a horse-drawn carriage and headed south.

During this time, Alster also suggested that they use their fighting spirit to run back.

However, they still chose to comply with Allen's idea of ​​returning home by carriage.

It was afternoon.

The curtains in the carriage windows were flapping wildly in the wind.

The scent of lotus blossoms in Aysa's hair, mingled with the earthy aroma from outside the window, drifted into Allen's nostrils.

He turned his head to look out the window.

After the rain at the end of summer, patches of dark green coniferous forest were left behind by the speeding carriage.

Not far away, the city walls of Rigate were already faintly visible.

Once you enter Rigate, it will take another ten days to half a month of trekking.

Then you can return to Ars.

-

Aisha sat upright with her hands on her knees.

She waited a moment, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw Allen lightly brush off what had just happened, and then rest his chin on his hand as he looked out the car window. Only then did she quietly breathe a sigh of relief.

He glanced sideways at Allen's face.

The dappled sunlight filtering through the gaps in the coniferous forest danced around his eyes, nose, and lips.

—Thump, thump.
