Devil's Bible

The saint's fingers touched the outer shell of the stone, and at that moment, he could feel a strong causal power within it.

The divine power, mediated by the saint, spread rapidly and was about to fall on the stone.

As expected, divine power enveloped the stone within it.

Through the connection between divine powers, a passage from the material plane directly to the location of the Goddess of Discipline in the astral plane was instantly constructed.

To ensure everything went perfectly, the Goddess of Discipline had even prepared the deflection force, ready to be used at any time.

However, at this moment, the goddess of discipline felt increasingly uneasy.

She had been on guard against Naimus's backup plan, but now that she had succeeded, she wouldn't be surprised by any backup plan Naimus might use. What she didn't understand was that he had no backup plan at all.

"Is there something I've overlooked?" the goddess of discipline couldn't help but reflect on herself.

She went through Naim's various thoughts over and over again, rearranging and combining them in an attempt to find the information Naim had hidden within them.

However, the action did not stop for a moment. In any case, the Fate Mud was real. As long as they could obtain it, there would be many more things they could do next.

In an instant, the Destiny Mud was pulled by divine power into the Astral Plane.

The goddess of discipline held it in her hand, feeling the causal power within it, but her face showed even more confusion.

The item was real, but it was precisely because it was real that the Goddess of Discipline felt suspicious...

Aside from sending the Dragonborn, Nemus seemed to have made no other move to contest this piece of destiny.

This is really not right.

The Goddess of Discipline discovered that even though she had acquired all of Nemus's memories and was familiar with all his past ways of thinking, acquiring and being familiar with them was not the same as truly possessing them.

When new things happen, she still can't accurately predict what Nemus is going to do.

"There's no way Nemus wouldn't want the Fate Mud..."

The goddess of discipline pondered, but did not stop moving, immediately beginning to manipulate cause and effect with the power of the mud.

For example, the shared thoughts she has with Nemes at this moment represent a strong connection.

Connection is cause and effect. By manipulating it using causal means, it is entirely possible to achieve the same result. She can continue to read Nemus's thoughts as before, while Nemus cannot do the opposite.

What was originally a two-way sharing has become a one-way acquisition by her.

In addition, the power of connection allows for even more maneuverability, giving her a variety of special abilities in the upcoming battles.

For example, severing one's connection with other things and manipulating cause and effect to make oneself a person isolated from the world.

Just like Nemus's characteristic of "external existence"...

At that moment, the Goddess of Discipline's mind was instantly connected. She suddenly realized something and looked at Nemus again.

"External Existence" is a characteristic of Nems, and its effect is similar to that of the Tablets of Fate. It cannot be observed by any other means except through direct observation.

Nemes rarely used this characteristic, because it was merely a basic feature of things from the outer universe in this world.

Furthermore, the intensity doesn't seem to be particularly high; it's just observation. During a battle of gods, it's not necessary to see Nemus himself.

The key is to observe the opponent's divine power and the changes in their strength.

The existence of the true self can be observed in other ways. But at this moment, the Goddess of Discipline felt that there was an absolute flaw in her thinking.

She was fully aware of Nemus's characteristics, but when considering what methods Nemus might have, she naturally regarded it all as 'normal' and didn't need to pay too much attention to 'external existence'.

Therefore, the goddess of discipline naturally overlooked this characteristic.

It wasn't until this moment, when the mud of cause and effect served as a reminder, that she finally remembered that characteristic.

All of this indicates that Nemus's "external existence" has been upgraded and has become even more terrifying.

The 'external existence' no longer only affects Nemus's physical body, but can also 'conceal' anything according to his will.

This concealment does not even affect the existence of shared thinking.

The goddess of discipline shared this part of the information, but still ignored it.

This thing, which seems to be outside of cognition, can only be slightly deciphered by forces such as the 'unknown' and 'cause and effect'.

"This power... is somewhat similar to that of the Sun God..." The Goddess of Discipline made another connection, and through cause and effect, she remembered even more things.

The sun god possesses the ability to 'normalize' everything; under that ability, all problems are masked, making everything appear normal.

At this moment, through the connection of cause and effect, the goddess of discipline remembered some problems that had been covered up by the sun god.

No… I don’t remember it completely, but rather it’s a kind of cognition. There’s definitely something wrong with that matter. I used to remember the problem clearly, but now my memory might not be wrong at all. However, she can’t correctly recognize the problem.

Because cognition has been forcibly hijacked by the notion of 'correctness'.

Once the goddess of discipline realized this, the emotion deep within her heart, after fear, was defeat.

Her cognition was also forcibly hijacked. Even though there were problems and she had relevant memories and information, she was unable to recognize them correctly. This was a complete 'contempt' for her existence.

However, these emotions were quickly dealt with by the Goddess of Discipline. She held the clay of fate in her hand and pondered what Nemus had quietly done as an "external being."

This time, perhaps due to causal connections, the goddess of discipline quickly noticed something was wrong.

“Mind sharing…!” The Goddess of Discipline suddenly looked toward the grid.

At this moment, the 'thought' of destiny no longer exists there.

The unease of the past was finally recognized by the goddess of discipline at this moment.

The sharing of thoughts was initiated by her. As long as the clod of earth related to her thoughts was still in her hands, the switch for sharing thoughts was in her hands.

However, not long ago, she had already obtained all of Naim's secrets, and when Naim in turn began to obtain her deepest memories, she should have proactively turned off mind-sharing...

However, at the time, Naims, in turn, maintained the existence of mind sharing to ensure that she would not actively sever the connection.

Although gods are stronger than mortals and can remotely control mud with their divine power, they need to attach something closely related to themselves to the mud.

It was at that moment that Nemes transferred his strongly related items to the clay of fate through his thoughts.

Subsequently, when Nemus seized the causal destiny clay block, he turned around and took away the thought destiny clay block.

They just took it right in front of her!! (End of Chapter)
