I'll kill you after I finish this game!

That was an unpopular and terrifying hypothetical community or society, the complete opposite of the ideal society we live in today, and an extremely vile final form of society.

Dystopia is characterized by its anti-humanity, authoritarian regime, ecological disaster, or other catastrophic social decay.

This kind of social structure usually appears in many works of art, especially in stories set in the future.

The other party's desire is to save the sinful world, which can be described as almost a religious, divine desire.

This desire, manifested in the domineering god, inevitably created another extreme.

However, if the third day is so extreme, then the mercury serpent would be even less likely to be born.

"But... in a world that views ignorance as evil and creates with omniscience, there will be a crazy desire for the unknown."

The Mercury Serpent sighed self-deprecatingly at its origins, then said to Fujii Ren before it:

"Originally, I didn't even understand my origins. It's like how no one can really figure out which came first, the chicken or the egg. But my best friend told me that when the third generation of gods destroyed the second generation of gods, they used the technique of time reversal to destroy the second day. This trickery created a huge causal effect."

Well, now we've dragged the Lord of the Second Seat into this too.

Fujii Ren inexplicably felt a strong causal connection, and perhaps the true source could be traced back even further.

Moreover, the Mercury Serpent is right; his god is special, and his time is circular.

Its origin is similar to that of a circle, a chicken-and-egg dilemma, a contradictory entity that is completely incomprehensible.

"Moreover, the [Seat] of the third era did not yet extend its domain to infinite parallel worlds. When the third generation of gods used time reversal, the manipulation of the timeline became possible, which in turn created a world of possibilities. And I am the [God] who appeared from another universe and timeline."

"After I defeated the opponent's seat, unlike the single time and single universe ruled by the previous three seat masters, I destroyed and reconstructed the structure and function of the [seat], enabling it to dominate multiple time and multiple universes, thus its outflow encompasses the total army of infinite parallel universes."

In that sense, Mercury Serpent could be considered a revivalist, just like Mary pioneered a different path.

In terms of dominion, the Mercury Serpent completely surpasses the gods of the previous three generations.

Having said all that, Mercury Serpent returned to the most important topic. He looked at Fujii Ren expressionlessly, a look that sent a chill down Ren's spine. Ren then gave his final summary, saying:

"See? Even in a world like the third day, unexpected situations like mine can occur. Do you think such situations won't happen in Mary's world?"

"...Things will inevitably turn into their opposites when they reach an extreme?"

Fujii Ren couldn't help but utter such a reply.

She wasn't stupid; the Mercury Serpent had wasted so much breath to make her grasp the key point.

On the third day, an era so perfect yet containing destructive elements, the mechanical deus ex machina, the Mercury Serpent, appeared.

Using this example, Mercury Serpent solemnly informed Fujii Ren of the seriousness of the problem they were discussing.

"That's right, things will turn into their opposites when they reach an extreme."

Mercury Serpent nodded in agreement, then, as if remembering something unpleasant, its face suddenly darkened, and it said:

"The omniscient created the unknown, which is me, and my eternal return is the principle of eternal return and regression, yet it gave birth to Mary's forward-moving reincarnation. But judging from my best friend's assessment of Mary's fifth day, there was simply too much 'love'."

"this......."

Fujii Ren's face turned completely pale, and countless viewers fell silent upon hearing this heavy topic.

This cause-and-effect relationship cannot be ignored. Fujii Ren's saying that things will turn around when they reach their extreme is a true reflection of the changing of the throne.

Although we don't know what the era of the previous two days was, the third day was the omniscient paradise and hell. However, that omniscient paradise and hell was a reaction against the extreme desire for the unknown, which led to the mercury serpent's crazy desire for the unknown.

Thinking about this, the audience couldn't help but recall the situation on the fourth day, and somewhat inexplicably understood the Mercury Serpent's pain.

His mad desire for the unknown resulted in a world he created that still contained nothing unknown. No, or perhaps his extreme craving for the unknown led him to devour the infinite unknown.

On the fourth day, the Creator suffered, and the divine successors in the world he created were even more tormented.

Now, back to the main point, the Mercury Serpent's thirst for the unknown created the terrifying eternal recurrence, but in this world that is forever retreating and endlessly returning, Mary was born, and so was reincarnation.

This incredibly close connection made countless viewers feel an overwhelming sense of causality.

At this moment, the reason why Fujii Ren's face was pale was also because of this. If we follow the logic of Mercury Serpent, then this problem is indeed a big problem.

Mary's world is judged by so much 'love' that what kind of unpredictable backlash will this cause?

I can't imagine it, but it certainly won't be a good outcome.

After all, if Mary represents goodness, then her reactionary actions could never be anything good.

"Do you understand now, Fujii Ren? This is what I still have to do even after I get up from my seat. My beloved goddess is now the queen of everything, and I am willing to share her burdens as her captive subject."

The Mercury Serpent spoke calmly of his unwavering resolve and conviction. Now he has descended from his seat, but lives on as Mary's attendant.

As a subordinate god, one naturally has to share the burdens of one's master god.

For some reason, Fujii Ren felt that she was inferior to Mercury Serpent in upholding Mary's beliefs, but she also sincerely admired this creator whom she hated.

Mary's world had only just begun, yet the other person was already thinking about the future and working towards it.

"Count me in. If there's anything I need to do, I'll do it without hesitation."

Looking at the Mercury Serpent, Fujii Ren also decided to do his part, as Mary also had a necessary responsibility that she could not escape.

Although she really didn't want to get involved with the Mercury Serpent again, she would put aside their grudges for Mary's sake.

"Your words are enough. I'm here to remind you what kind of goal you should have in living as Mary's servant in the future... Also, could you please ask Mary when she stopped rejecting me?"

Mercury Serpent smiled and nodded, but then his face turned bitter, a look of misery and helpless resignation on his face as he pleaded with Fujii Ren:

"After all, if I keep being ostracized, it will create a lot of obstacles in my work."

"......"

The originally serious and solemn atmosphere was disrupted by the sudden change in expression of the Mercury Serpent in front of him, making Fujii Ren feel a little unkind and want to laugh, and even mock the other party for deserving of such a thing.

She had no doubt that the Mercury Serpent had said all that in order to get Mary to forgive him and stop rejecting him.

Even though she had become an independent individual, she still understood the man's obsession with Mary.

The mercury serpent before us is merely a sensation; its true form has been semi-permanently banished by Mary and is now relegated to the outermost perimeter of the God's Throne territory.

If the world were an ocean, then the mercury serpent would be something that could only be stranded on the beach.

Despite not being in good condition, Fujii Ren showed absolutely no pity for the other person.

"...I'll find an opportunity...to talk to Mary."

Fujii Ren's face, which was trying to suppress a laugh, looked like he had been punched, but he still managed to agree to Mercury Serpent's request.

Although the serious issues surrounding the Mercury Serpent cannot be ignored, this is only the beginning, and there is still plenty of time.

"That's good, my hero in the opera. I sincerely wish that you and the goddess will never be separated. Goodbye."

Upon hearing Fujii Ren's reply, Mercury Serpent didn't mind her suppressed laughter. After letting out a sigh of relief, she bid farewell and disappeared from Fujii Ren's sight like a shadow.

Fujii Ren stared silently at the spot where the other person had disappeared, then couldn't help but sigh.

Although I really don't want to meet the other party, given the reality, that's impossible. We'll still have to work together and collaborate on tasks in the future.

But he could endure it for Mary's sake, though he wondered what would happen when Skadi returned.

Now the eternal cycle has been rewritten, and the human soul will repeat different cycles of rotation, constantly reincarnating.

After being reminded of the important matters by the Mercury Serpent, Fujii Ren now has a goal for what he should do as a god in the future.

I said it from the beginning, this vow will never change, Mary, I will protect you forever.

"[Lotus, it's okay, we'll all work together.]"

Suddenly, a gentle and smiling voice came from behind. The familiar voice made Fujii Ren unconsciously widen his eyes slightly, but when he turned around, he saw nothing.

Fujii Ren was certain that it wasn't an illusion, absolutely not.

It's Mary...she...that's right, touch!

Just like the Mercury Serpent before her, Mary will do that kind of thing sooner or later.

In this way, they can reunite completely.

“Mary…”

Looking at the tombstone in front of her, Fujii Ren couldn't help but smile happily, and she was also looking forward to the day when she would meet him again.

Moreover, Mary is right; even if a terrible future may come, let's work together to change it.

From the moment they met until now, haven't they been constantly fighting against each other?

If the future is terrible and hopeless, then we must use our own strength to desperately try to make it the way we hope for.

Chapter Seventy-Eight: Even a Bodhisattva's Heart Cannot Save the Human Heart in the Mortal World

Many viewers were initially very curious about what would happen when they first saw that Mary's reign would come to an end.

However, judging from the conversation between Mercury Serpent and Fujii Ren, the waters of the God Throne World are still as deep as a bottomless pit.

The fourth day of eternal return ended, and the fifth day of blissful reincarnation began.

However, according to the historical pattern of the thrones, no lord of a throne can sit on the throne forever.

Judging from the words of the Mercury Serpent, there is actually a causal connection between the impending destruction of the new world and its fate.

Each generation of the Lord of the Seats is inextricably linked to both the previous and subsequent generations.

Including Mary, the world depicted in the video, which is the era of divine rule, has already gone through five phases.

These five eras can also be referred to as five different "heavens".

Speaking of the fourth and fifth days, countless viewers have also discovered the causal relationship between the fourth and fifth days.

The eternal recurrence of the mercury serpent is a regression, a denial of progress.

Mary's cycle of reincarnation is a process of continuous progress and constant repetition.

On the third day, which is even earlier, there is a dystopian society where no individual exists, a paradise and a hell that is all-knowing.

As the causal reaction of the third day, the Mercury Serpent is an extremely domineering god who craves the unknown.

After the other party took their seat, the fourth day of eternal rebirth began.

This pattern also foreshadows that Mary's reincarnation will inevitably face the day of rebellion.

The principle of reversal at the extreme is exactly this.
