Arcanum: Chaos Path

Chapter 204 Who is the old swan’s biological child?
"I also think the ice cream here is a bit too sweet. It would be better if the sweetness was reduced by half." Rowling was not surprised by Will's sudden appearance, and naturally followed the other party's words to express his opinion.

He never liked things that were too sweet, not as fond of sweets as Klein.

Will frowned when he heard that, and after thinking for a second, he retorted, "One third is enough. Half wouldn't be sweet enough. Ice cream that isn't sweet enough has no soul."

"But in my opinion, the best way to describe something like a dessert is that it's not sweet." Luo Lin said this, picked up the coffee and took a sip, then smiled and said, "By the way, their coffee is pretty good."

"Heresy!" Will muttered slightly in dissatisfaction, clearly disapproving of Rowling's taste. He then took a sip of the coffee in front of him and nodded, saying, "The coffee is indeed very good."

"It seems we have some differences in taste, but we also have some areas of agreement." Rowling smiled at Will and continued, "This shows that we are quite compatible."

"How can we be compatible? I think our tastes are very different." Will puffed up his cheeks in dissatisfaction, like a big hamster, and then scooped a big spoonful of ice cream into his mouth with a spoon.

Obviously, they were talking about the issue of taste, but they were also using this topic to talk about other things.

"It seems that there are some disagreements between us again. Well, if you like it, eat more." Rowling smiled and pushed his untouched ice cream in front of Will, then watched Will eat as if he was observing an interesting little animal.

Will looked up at Rowling and did not refuse his kindness. After finishing two servings of ice cream, Will wiped the corners of his mouth with a tissue and burped with a little satisfaction.

It can be seen that He really likes eating ice cream.

Luo Lin then said, "I thought you would avoid me."

Will paused, gnashing his teeth as if thinking of something. He then looked at Luo Lin with a hint of helplessness and said, "I want to hide too, but fate tells me that if I hide from you, it will only lead to a worse outcome."

When Rowling heard this, he raised his eyebrows and thought about what might happen if Will hid from him - there were only two possibilities. The first was that he would be aroused to rebel and must catch Will. In this case, if Will was caught by him, he would definitely be persecuted in various ways.

The second possibility is that he gives up on catching Will and instead fully supports the Angel of Destiny Ouroboros. In this case, Will will probably be killed soon and be plucked away by Ouroboros with tears in his eyes.

"You definitely made the right decision." Luo Lin nodded, agreeing with Will's words, and said with a smile, "So I think we have reached a cooperation now?"

Will rolled his eyes in annoyance and said, "What about the presentation of each other's chips? Shouldn't we first discuss our respective needs and what we can bring to each other in the future?"

"Of course we can talk about these, but that doesn't prevent us from reaching a consensus on cooperation first! And if you didn't come here to cooperate with me, why would you eat my ice cream!" Rowling said with a smile, and glanced meaningfully at the empty ice cream cup in front of Will.

Will choked, then took a sip of his coffee indignantly before muttering, "This is seriously the most expensive ice cream I've ever had." "Maybe it's the best deal!" Rowling retorted with a smile. He then took a sip of his coffee and said, "Then, let's move on to the chip presentation you've been waiting for the most and discuss our respective demands and chips!"

Luo Lin put down the coffee cup in his hand, looked at Will and said with a smile, "I can help you accept the uniqueness of fate."

Will didn't look surprised when he heard this. He just said, "Maybe I can find the right opportunity on my own."

"Pfft..." Luo Lin couldn't help laughing and looked at Will and said, "Are you serious? Will, do you have any misunderstanding about your luck?"

Will's expression suddenly darkened, but he didn't refute. Instead, he lowered his head to study the pattern on the table, feeling a little depressed.

There are usually two ways to accommodate the uniqueness of fate. The first is to find the right opportunity in the torrent of fate. This sounds simple, but it is actually a completely deceptive condition.

Because the so-called "correct" in the conditions is a completely vague concept, you may think that you have encountered the right opportunity, but in fact it is not, and you cannot rely on extraordinary abilities to find it, so whether you can complete it depends entirely on luck. It can be said that it has the characteristics of a destiny path.

The second method is to have a pillar or semi-pillar-level existence to forcibly suppress the uniqueness of your destiny so that you can accommodate it.

Although Will had obtained the uniqueness of destiny early on and had been trying to accommodate it over the years, he had no idea about the so-called right opportunity, let alone seeking help from a pillar-level being.

The only pillar of this world before, apart from the foreign gods, was the ancient sun god. However, the ancient sun god already had the angel of fate, Ouroboros, by his side. How could Will possibly deliver food to him?

So even though he got the uniqueness of destiny early on, Will was never able to accept it. This made the uniqueness of destiny not only fail to bring Will any help, but also became a burden, making Will feel tired every day, and even made Will doubt his luck for a time.

Is He really an angel of destiny? Why is His luck so bad?

"That's perfectly normal. True luck isn't about wild ups and downs. How can someone who's lucky one moment and unlucky the next be called the goose's favorite chick?"

Luo Lin naturally understood what Will was thinking and added precisely, "For example, a certain God of Steam and Machinery. That's the true Son of Destiny. If He were to follow the path of destiny, I have no doubt that after He becomes an angel, you and Ouroboros would fall one after another, making room for Him. Then, the seal of the Western Continent would be broken in a matter of minutes, and the Key of Light would fall from the sky, and a new Old World would be born."

Although it was a bit exaggerated, this was Rowling's true thought. After all, the God of Steam and Machinery was indeed too lucky. Before he had fully digested the characteristics of Sequence 1, he got the Sequence 0 potion and successfully advanced to Sequence 0.

When Sequence 0 encountered difficulties in digesting the potion, he met the strong man Russell who fell from the sky. He digested the potion while lying down. He chose the right person in the mysterious battle and avoided many years of detours. When the doomsday came, so many people died, but the God of Steam and Machinery was still alive and well, and even went for further studies. He was the biological cub of an old swan.
