As if sensing something, Mary on the execution platform turned around in confusion, then, as if drawn by something, spotted two figures dressed in black and white cloaks in the crowd.
A smile unconsciously appeared on her face. Even though she couldn't utter any words beyond the lyrics, a woman's feeling told her that these were the two people who had always taken care of her and fed her delicious food every day.
Because of the presence of her friends who watched over her, Mary once again sang a blood-soaked, sweet song at the place of her birth.
As for why she didn't stop her friend's execution, the answer is that Mary herself wouldn't die. Mortals cannot harm gods; they are like amoebas, how could they possibly harm a seeker of truth as vast and great as the universe?
[From the guillotine onward, and from the guillotine onward, Mary's life as a human being has ended; now it is time for Mary as the goddess Mary, reborn after death.]
The guillotine fell, blood splattered, and the God of Seeking the Dao possessed power comparable to the vastness of the universe; he should not have been harmed by mortals, much less killed by the guillotine.
However, Mary, who had not yet come to realize that she was God, died as a "human being."
Amidst the horrified stares of the crowd, as if they were looking at a monster, Mary, who should have been a headless corpse, vanished along with her severed head, bathed in the most beautiful glow of the setting sun.
[Carrying that gentle yet heavy mass, it broke free from the governing domain of the contemporary universe's laws and fell into a singularity belonging to the Gods of Seeking the Way.]
On that eternally twilight beach, Mary still lingers, singing, showing no pain or other unusual emotion at her recent beheading.
She ended her life as a human being on the guillotine where she was born, without death or fear, because throughout her life, from birth to the present, beheading was just an everyday occurrence for her; whether she or someone else was beheaded made no difference.
[After the girl's death, her life as a human ended, but that meant nothing. —At the moment she died as a human, she also began a new life as a 'god,' perhaps one that will last forever…]
At this moment, the black and white figures followed Mary to the singularity.
The person in the tattered white robe looked at Mary and said, "Mary's soul reached the point of overflowing from the very beginning. If the quality of an ordinary person's soul is a wisp of fire, then her soul possesses a brilliance and heat far exceeding that of a star, surpassing the sum of all souls in the universe."
Yes, without any training or pursuit of power, Margaret reached the state of "flowing forth" from the moment of her birth.
Fujii Ren remained silent upon seeing this. Mary, who had just been a "human," had died, and now, as a Seeker God, she was reborn.
Mary was born with a transcendent nature, but because her mind was like that of a child, she had no idea that she was a god of seeking the truth, transcending the world.
Even as the naturally gifted individual was led to the guillotine for execution, no strong emotions arose within him; he simply allowed himself to "die."
Clearly, if Mary so desired, there was absolutely nothing on Earth that could harm this naturally born seeker of the Way.
Death world.
"Was she born at an unimaginable pinnacle...?"
Aizen's expression in Hueco Mundo was strange, with a bitter feeling and an unnatural stiffness.
From birth, it possessed that terrifying realm of outflow, with a soul quality exceeding the sum of all souls in the entire universe.
Compared to him, this insignificant Grim Reaper who is still climbing towards a higher level, the gap is truly enormous.
Aizen was very interested in the "Seat" that governed the multiverse, and he felt that the great achievements of the domineering god were truly sublime.
They also felt a strong longing and yearning for that sublime and majestic existence.
"Compared to my world, the gods here are more like monkeys."
Aizen recalled the reality of his own world, a mocking smile appearing on his lips, but his eyes held a sense of helplessness.
He defected from Soul Society to Hueco Mundo and became its ruler, all in order to advance to a higher position.
Aizen Sousuke appears to be an elegant, kind, and polite person who was highly respected by his subordinates during his time as captain. In reality, however, he is cold-hearted and extremely ambitious.
He was a genius from birth, and felt lonely because no one could compare to him. He actively sought out someone who could stand at the same level as him, but he never found such a person.
As his power grew, Aizen became arrogant, believing he would surpass everything.
In some ways, Aizen's world is somewhat similar to the world of Kamukura in the video.
That is, in contrast to the multiverse, their narrow three realms, namely Soul Society, Hueco Mundo, and the Human World, actually have a being that Aizen does not acknowledge maintaining the balance.
Aizen knew the truth of the world: countless years ago, the world was a place where life and death were nonexistent, where there was neither progress nor regression, and even becoming a Hollow was part of the spiritual particle cycle.
However, the Hollows gradually began to devour humans, and the cycle ended completely. If this continued, all the souls would eventually become a single, enormous Hollow, and the world would fall into complete stillness.
At this moment, the Spirit King was born, using the power of annihilation to destroy the void, causing the world to begin its cycle once again.
However, the ancestors of the five great noble families, including the Shiba family, did not approve of such a world. Their motives were different, but they inexplicably converged on the same goal—the separation of the three realms. To achieve this goal, they needed the power of the Spirit King.
However, just as Shiba no Nakamaru was about to persuade the Soul King, Tsuna no Nakamaru seized the opportunity to seal him in a crystal.
The Spirit King foresaw certain aspects of the future and chose to sacrifice himself.
The five progenitors used the omnipotent power of the Spirit King as a wedge to separate this chaotic world.
The world of spirit particles, the world of vessels, and the desert paradise reached by the void born from these two worlds—that is the present-day Three Realms.
However, Tsunayoshi's ancestors even suspected the silent Spirit King, fearing that he might break the seal on his own and destroy them.
So they neither let the Spirit King live nor killed him. Instead, they threw him into a paradoxical spiral of living and dying simultaneously.
They severed the Spirit King's arms, which controlled "movement" and "stillness," but even that wasn't enough for them.
Several ancestors, led by Tsunayoshi, spent countless years removing the Soul King's heart, cutting off his feet, slicing open his internal organs, and taking them out of his body. After stripping him of his power, he fell to the mortal realm.
They constantly weakened the Spirit King's power, all in order to create a "king" that would be easier for them to control.
In Aizen's eyes, the Soul King was the wedge that kept the human world, Soul Society, and Hueco Mundo stable.
He didn't approve of that kind of existence, but the other party's existence was necessary.
Compared to the domineering gods who control the myriad phenomena of the multiverse and create new worlds according to their desires and will, Aizen felt that the Spirit King, who was already capable of ruling the three realms, was as insignificant and humble as an amoeba.
To think that his world was being trampled and controlled at will by a group of corrupt and greedy people was something Aizen simply could not tolerate.
If possible, he should be the one sitting on the throne of heaven.
But when he saw the throne of the heavens in another world, he felt that the position of the Spirit King was somewhat petty.
Now in another world, according to Skadi, it's time for the gods to change places.
The new gods will challenge the old gods, defeat them, and create a completely new world.
Such a challenge, such a great undertaking, such difficulty, made Aizen feel a long-lost sense of challenge and excitement.
The video continues to play, and Fujii Ren's perspective on the memories will continue for a while longer.
After arriving at her own permanent singularity, Mary wandered around there as usual until two of her former best friends visited.
The figure dressed in a jet-black robe, as dark as a shadow, knelt down on one knee before Mary's bewildered expression.
With the posture of a submissive knight, he touched his pounding chest and spoke with unprecedented tenderness, uttering words that made Fujii Ren's expression turn strange:
"I have fallen in love with you. Please allow me to kneel before you, my flower."
This sudden, heartfelt confession left both Fujii Ren and Mary, who was being confessed to, with the same bewildered expression.
Not only was Fujii Ren dumbfounded, but even the other audience members' lips twitched.
For some reason, although the sudden confession was surprising, most female viewers felt like they had encountered a pervert when they heard the man uttering affectionate words.
Just then, the kneeling figure removed his hood in front of Mary.
She was about to reveal her true form, letting Fujii Ren see this incredibly strange fellow, but at that moment, her consciousness synchronized with Mary's.
The audience's gaze followed Fujii Ren into a brief period of darkness, before returning to the twilight beach.
And Mary's big, bright green eyes were looking at her gently. A flood of memories rushed into Fujii Ren's mind. Although she was a little disappointed that she didn't see the face of the person who confessed to Mary.
But when he faced the girl again, Fujii Ren no longer felt any aversion.
Yes, she wouldn't hurt herself, nor would she intentionally hurt others. She was simply concerned about Fujii Ren and thinking of her best interests.
"Ren, it's okay. Whether Ren's past is ugly or beautiful, I will accept it." Mary said gently as she looked at Fujii Ren, whose eyes were beginning to change, and patted Fujii Ren's head with her small hand.
Hearing this, Fujii Ren felt the warmth on her head, lowered her eyes, and whispered to Mary, "In exchange, you saw it too, didn't you?"
The meaning is quite clear: Fujii Ren can feel that her connection with Mary has become incredibly profound.
As a result of this connection, she saw Mary's past, and Mary had no reason not to see hers.
There was a sense of fear, a fear that Mary would hate her after seeing her past.
This feeling of fear stems from Fujii Ren accepting Mary's existence and caring about her, which is why he is afraid of being seen as bad in her eyes.
“Ren doesn’t mind my past, and I don’t mind Ren’s past either.” Mary naturally knew how Fujii Ren felt; she felt the same way.
She has few friends, but each one is precious and her most treasured possession.
As Skadi grew up, she also learned that beheading was wrong, and she actually felt guilty and compassionate towards those she had hurt.
Hearing Mary's words, they resonated with the same feeling. Fujii Ren smiled, placed his hands on Mary's shoulders, looked into her eyes, and said:
"I am Ren, Fujii Ren. It will be nice to meet you from now on, Mary."
"Ah."
Yes, it's started again, whether she's an unlucky woman, a cursed woman, or a woman of retribution.
Zarathustra, you should hate her, love her, protect her, and destroy her.
She is an anomaly in the world, an existence beyond the will of heaven, both dead and not dead, a being detached from the concepts of humanity.
[Eternal, infinite, indestructible, divine, infinite, life after death.]
Together with another Guardian, you will create eternal destruction.
"Eternal destruction..."
To officially complete this, you need to be with Mary, who is the true master of the guillotine and the core figure.
"Senior, who exactly is Cagliostro?"
Thinking of the guy who confessed to Mary before, and the jewelry he gave Mary in her memory, Fujii Ren asked Skadi next to her with some concern.
Moreover, the voices in my head that seem to be hallucinating are describing another guardian, which I think refers to my senior.
"A certain magician who was mentally unstable half a century ago is now the master of the throne. He was largely responsible for planning this Suwahara farce."
Skadi looked into Fujii Ren's eyes, but her gaze seemed to be looking through her at someone else, before she spoke the truth in a detached tone.
The current ruler of the throne? It's an answer that's both surprising and not surprising, still full of a sense of familiarity.
The audience also remembered the name Cagliostro, even though they had not yet clearly met the current ruler of the throne.
So I was very curious about it, and the Lord of that seat and Mary had a very deep relationship, not the kind of bad relationship.
"Is that so? Then..."
There's no need to be confused anymore. I already dislike that name anyway; I'll just have to beat him up sometime in the future. Lian looked at Mary and said:
"Where is the guillotine that executes me every night?"
