You are all my wings...

"Okay, I will try my best not to let you down."

Perhaps because the con artist had already advanced to the eighth rank, although Leon was still in the advancement period of elemental magic, as the con deception continued, he began to feel less and less pain in the face of the modern Orpheus personality, and his expression became more composed.

He was slightly moved, realizing that this extraction of conceptual essence had actually earned him over twenty points in one go, demonstrating that Modern Orpheus truly had enough faith in him.

But just a moment later, Lyon noticed that the huge statue next to him seemed to move slightly, and then turned its majestic gaze down on him.

This is clearly the giant statue of Orpheus's past personality speaking:

"I never imagined that someone would interfere with my resurrection. Who are you? How dare you infiltrate my soul?"

As the giant statue opened its mouth, a massive stream of information overwhelmed Leon's split thought, almost suffocating him.

If he hadn't already reinforced this thought with conceptual essence, he might not have been able to hold on.

Moreover, Lyon still had doubts in his mind.

Based on what he learned from Eden and Terena, the past version of Orpheus in front of him should also know him, and may even have had his children, right?

Or was it an accident that she was sent back to the future by the goddess of the end, Jormungandr, so the event where she was supposed to meet the past version of Orpheus did not happen?

That's fine, this way I can fully support the modern version of Orpheus without feeling guilty.

“I am your husband, Leon Belon, your other personality.”

Lyon remained expressionless and said:

"As for why I dared to sneak in, it's naturally to help you restore your status."

The previous version of Orpheus immediately sneered: "You say you're helping me restore my status, but in reality, you're planning to turn my alternate personality into the main one?"

"No, I just love you so much, Ophie, that's why I don't want our shared memories to be washed away by this massive stream of information."

As Leon spoke, he activated a deep purification mode and a deep mind mode to prevent her from seeing through his lies at a glance.

"You say you love me? How ridiculous. Memories of just a few decades are but a drop in the ocean of my long life. So what if you're sure of me?"

"Ophie, no matter how long life is, if you don't experience love, it's no different from a stone drifting in the dark corners of the world. But if you do experience love, even if your life is as short as a cicada's, what difference is there between that and eternity?"

Lyon remained calm, gazing intently at the enormous statue without looking away.

Sensing the emotions contained in Lyon's gaze, the giant statue's otherwise indifferent face furrowed slightly, as if deep in thought.

Chapter 573 Orpheus: I Can Too

"How can a fleeting moment of bloom be equated with a long life? You are merely distorting the mysteries of time and space."

After a moment of contemplation, the former version of Orpheus spoke softly.

"Your Excellency's statement overlooks the role of the spiritual."

Lyon said, "Why do all living beings have feelings? How could the intelligent species, which are born with feelings, so quickly surpass the indifferent and aloof nature gods and divine creatures in just one era? If they hadn't been mostly wiped out by the struggle between the two supreme gods at the end of the Eden era, the intelligent species of this era would have already given birth to an intelligent species that can rival the Lord of the Forbidden Zone, wouldn't they?"

“Spirituality and conceptual authority are indeed great forces in this world that can be compared with the authority of space and time.”

The past version of Orpheus smiled: "But what you just said was just a fallacy of equivocation, and the 'what if' scenario doesn't serve as evidence. Whether the love you've nurtured in those few decades can truly evolve into great spirituality is still unknown. If this is all the nonsense you're trying to argue with me about, then you can leave now. Considering the good relationship you've had with my alternate personality over the years, I can forgive this offense."

It seems that the past version of Orpheus was really hard to talk to.

Fortunately, compared to some of his past encounters with the main bodies of the Peak Forbidden Zone, this outcome was somewhat within Lyon's expectations.

Immediately, Lyon shook his head with a sigh, while simultaneously relaxing his mind and feigning a sigh on the surface of his consciousness:

'I've heard that the power wielded by the Infinite Goddess leans more towards the purest of the ten strongest powers—[Information]—and a portion of [Space-Time] power. It seems that while overly pure power is desirable, it also lacks breadth. She still harbors many misunderstandings about the wondrous and unparalleled [Spiritual] power, leading to the difficult problem of being corrupted by her alternate personality in this reincarnation. She's even unaware that she's attempting to erase the great spiritual foundation nurtured by her alternate personality; truly pitiful and lamentable.'

This arrogant past version of Orpheus possessed astonishing sensory abilities, and naturally, she easily heard the murmurs that Leon deliberately revealed on the surface of his mind.

However, since Leon did not say it aloud, but only let the thought circulate on the surface of her mind, she only frowned slightly before returning to her normal expression.

But Leon had already keenly observed this scene. He looked up at the other person and smiled:

"Although you possess sophisticated spiritual manipulation techniques such as memory control, personality sealing, soul transfer, and spiritual faith exchange, you still haven't solved the biggest mystery of spiritual reincarnation: why, when faced with such an opportunity, you still couldn't easily absorb the alternate personality, right? It's clear that your alternate personality has actually given birth to a great spirit."

Having spent a long time using the trickster and the shadowwalker to comprehend the knowledge corresponding to the ten supreme powers of the spirit, Leon has developed his own unique insights into the spiritual.

In his view, the foundation of spirituality is memory, personality is the guide, and what gives the soul its finishing touch is emotion, and the most basic unit of emotion is mood.

In addition to the three major emotions of love, family affection, and friendship, there are also very complex emotions such as gratitude, gratitude for things, pity, sadness, grief and indignation, and tenderness.

These complex and intense emotions are what truly determine one's spiritual level.

Therefore, memory and the soul are like black and white photographs, while emotions can add color to them, elevating them to spirituality, transforming them from rough stones into crystal-clear gems.

If one's spirituality is strong enough, their innate understanding and resistance to the passage of time will also be greatly enhanced.

"Even if what you say is true, it doesn't prove how significant your love over the past few decades is. This is just a spirituality born from my alternate personality based on my unique circumstances. Are you trying to say that you also possess this level of spirituality?"

The previous version of Orpheus chuckled.

Her laughter was clear and melodious, like the long tolling of a divine bell, instantly piercing through the depths of Lyon's divided consciousness, causing his consciousness to become slightly blurred, as if his thoughts were somewhat disordered.

"Of course."

Lyon immediately activated Perfect Load Mode and responded without changing his expression.

The effects of the perfect carrying mode were somewhat overpowered; it even increased his soul resistance, making him feel much more relaxed. He even noticed that his deception abilities had also improved, as if he had received a boost.

Looks like I can't hold back anymore, all mode activated!

Realizing the immense power of the perfect carrying mode, Leon immediately activated the other modes.

Boom!

His mind and spirit cleared again, and at this moment, he clearly felt that as the elemental mage advanced to the eighth rank, the essence of his spiritual power continued to transform, and his ability to activate fifteen modes of deception would increase dramatically.

Now he is both deceiving the past version of Orpheus and summarizing his own spiritual theory. His wish-miracle spells also require a strong emotional drive and are a profound magic in the spiritual realm.

Therefore, he simultaneously blessed himself with the [Wish Miracle Mantra].

then--

Five concept essences were deployed to disrupt the flow of information in the surrounding area through concept fraud.

The two exerted their power simultaneously, and then a soft buzzing sound was heard. Within Ophimaso's soul, it seemed to be resonating with some law of the world, emitting a slight tremor, and countless surging streams of information were momentarily halted.

"Does Your Excellency see this? This is my spirituality, which I call the 'Divine Gift of Love'."

Lyon reached out and pointed to the surging stream of information around him that had suddenly stopped:

"A powerful spirituality might just be a strong emotion for ordinary people, but for the strong, it makes it easier to trigger laws, to trigger the essence of all things, and to enhance their innate understanding. The love between me and Your Majesty's alternate personality over the years has given birth to such an unprecedented spirituality, which can help me to have a surge in mental power, unparalleled wisdom, a clear mind, a pure consciousness, thoughts that reach the divine, knowledge that is like ions, to see through the mysteries of fate, and to understand miracles... With such profound endowments, although I am only at the eighth level, I can step into this forbidden zone of creation and can freely control the massive flow of information that Your Majesty is so proud of."

This is obviously made up.

But if magic and skills can be faked, can other, more powerful things also be faked?

Based on this, Lyon began to make bolder attempts, speaking while clearing away the surrounding information flow, putting on an air of ease.

Watching Leon activate his modes one by one and suddenly change his demeanor, casually suppressing the surging flow of information around him, the old version of Orpheus' personality was speechless.

After a while, her eyes flickered, and she said calmly:

"Isn't this your own innate talent? According to the memories of the alternate personality, this is just your innate constitution. The so-called 'magic surge syndrome' is not a spiritual gift."

"Your Excellency is joking. You have lived for so long, have you ever seen anyone in mythological history who was born with so many top talents? Since you have examined Orpheus's memories, you should know that I deliberately concealed it to avoid making them worry. After all, spirituality is a mysterious field since the birth of the world, enough to attract many powerful people to take risks."

Leon said, then retorted decisively:

“I have met many Lords of Forbidden Zones and am familiar with the talents of some of them, but none of them have been born with so many outstanding talents, have they? How could I possibly be born with such an outrageous physique? If I were, wouldn't I be born more powerful than your Lords of Forbidden Zones? Do you think that's possible? If I hadn't sublimated my spirit through this, how could I have increased my talents? You should also know that only spiritual sublimation can bring about an improvement in talents, right?”

The gifts he received from the Lord of the Forbidden Zone alone included the Superbrain Mode from Terena and the Kewei Mode from Aurahande. He naturally knew exactly what the Lord of the Forbidden Zone could achieve at his limit.

The only pity is that when I was with Shi Tikesi, her favorability rating wasn't high at the time. It was an activity forced by lust, so I didn't unlock any modes related to her.

"Fine, since you say this is spirituality that has been sublimated from love with my alternate personality, then I will give you a chance. If you can use it on me in return, allowing me to improve, then it will prove that your love of only a few decades was not bad. In that case, I can promise you that I will not wash away this alternate personality, and I will even give you great benefits."

In the past, Orpheus frowned and pondered for a moment, then suddenly seemed to understand something, and his brows relaxed slightly.

Lyon frowned and said, “Your Excellency can probably see that the effects of my spirituality can only work on objects of deep love and on oneself. Since Your Excellency and I have no love for each other, how can it be effective? As for proof, I can fully demonstrate this in conjunction with Your Excellency’s alternate personality.”

The previous version of Orpheus smiled, and the giant statue suddenly shrank to the size of a normal human body:

"If you can be with my alternate personality, why can't you be with me?"

She reached out and grabbed Lyon's head, as if to rape him.

Chapter 574 Orpheus: You must swear an oath?

Although the previous version of Orpheus was in the form of a soul within the information stream, what appeared before Leon at this moment was undoubtedly the same face as the previous Orpheus Marceau, only with a more arrogant demeanor.

Like a dragonfly skimming the water,

She passed by Lyon.

Then she paused, as if savoring the aftertaste, and gently stroked her cheek with her slender fingers, savoring the moment.

"It's like I'm drowning, I can't feel anything."

After a moment, she tilted her head, grabbed Leon's waist with one hand, and reached up to his cheek with the other, gently stroking his face, before saying:

If it doesn't work the first time, then try again.

So she bent down.

As her breathtakingly beautiful face drew closer again, Leon suddenly noticed a flicker of unease in the corner of her eye. His heart skipped a beat, and he stepped back.

"Your Excellency, are you underestimating your own alternate personality by trying to test me with this method?"

The previous version of Orpheus paused slightly as she approached, a slight smile playing on her lips, her deep, bright eyes gleaming as if piercing through Leon's very soul.

"Interesting. When did I ever want to test you?"

Lyon said, "Your Excellency is currently just a collection of consciousness within your soul. Even if you do a lot with me, you can't create any real experience or feeling. Besides, you're just using some fake information streams to make me feel like it's real, aren't you?"

The previous version of Orpheus smiled slightly: "It's good that you still have some rationality. But since you say you deeply love my alternate personality, then logically, my main personality should also like it, right? If I create some information flow for you to make a misjudgment, wouldn't that also stimulate your so-called 'divine gift of love' spiritual effects?"

She really did have this idea in mind: to get something for nothing.

Lyon said, “Your Excellency, if it is true love, then you can naturally distinguish between true love and false love that is merely a performance to appease me. You only want the benefits of your enhanced talents, but you are unwilling to give love. How can my ‘Divine Gift of Love’ spiritual power work?”

The previous version of Orpheus smiled and then softened: "Oh? You really think I need your spiritual blessing?"

Lyon said, “I can tell that you don’t necessarily want to get it, but you are just interested and want to meet it. But you may not know that my spiritual power has already worked on Terena. She also said that she has comprehended the path to the fifteenth level after being blessed by my spiritual power.”

Therena, of course, did not explicitly mention that she had comprehended how to advance to the fifteenth rank.

However, according to Lyon's observation, she did indeed have many profound insights after being with xx in the last century, and it is possible that she really reached a realm that can truly be compared with the two supreme beings.

Therefore, he spoke with great confidence when he made up this story.

The past version of Orpheus's eyes flickered slightly: "You've also seen Terena?"

"Yes, not only have we met, but we also developed a love for each other. Because of this love, my 'divine gift of love' spirituality not only allowed me to receive her superbrain endowment, but also elevated her endowment once again. You will naturally know this once you see her again after your successful recovery. My spirituality has had a tremendous effect on you."

Lyon remained expressionless.

To everyone's surprise, after saying this, the past version of Orpheus narrowed her eyes: "You've clearly fallen in love with my alternate personality, yet you're still flirting and having relationships with other women? What kind of love is that? I think it's promiscuity."

As soon as she finished speaking, the surrounding information flow suddenly became violent, as if it had taken on a murderous aura, making it extremely dangerous.

Even with fifteen modes superimposed on a perfect mode, Lyon still felt some pressure using his remaining mental energy to deflect the impact of these information streams.

“Your Excellency, it doesn’t matter how you misunderstand me, but please don’t use words like ‘promiscuous’ to describe me.”

Under pressure, Lyon spoke solemnly:

"I swear before the two great hells of time and life and death, if my love is false, may I be forever condemned to the bottom of hell and perish in the cycle of life and death!"

Upon hearing this, the former Orpheus was startled and abruptly moved closer to Leon, his eyes flashing with a powerful light:

"How dare you swear an oath to the two great hells? Do you know the consequences if the oath is broken?"

Chapter 575 Orpheus: Your Love is Stronger Than Gold

Faced with the question of the past version of Orpheus, Leon calmly nodded: "Since I dared to make this vow, I naturally dare to bear the corresponding consequences."

In his vow, he talked about whether the love was false, but he didn't mention any specific object of love, which is naturally one of the means of insurance.
