Curse Reply: I'm going to fight the Myriad Corpse Immortal, the highest level one!

On two adjacent crosses, Kyoko Byakuya, who has returned to the Edo period, and the missionary Miguel are panting heavily.

Driven by the shogunate samurai, Byakuya and his companion, carrying heavy crosses, climbed to the top of Sengokudake. They and the Christian villagers were already exhausted and their bodies were about to reach their limits.

"After the eruption of Thousand Prisons Mountain, I survived and gained the ability to see into the universe from afar."

"You arranged all of this, didn't you?"

"If you arranged everything, why did you choose me of all people?"

"Now, I have shut down the Eye of the Universe and can no longer receive your instructions."

Despite the beads of sweat sliding down her eyelashes, Shirayuki Kyoko, her limbs bound, asked Miguel beside her.

Even though she was about to be kicked off the volcano along with her cross by the samurai, all that remained on her face was a calm acceptance of everything.

"It wasn't me who chose you, but 'God' who chose you."

Miguel's eyelids drooped, and sweat dripped down his forehead. Despite facing death, he and Kyoko Shirayaki both displayed a remarkably similar calmness.

Taking a slight breath, Migler continued:

"The true nature of the universe is darkness; the entire universe is ruled by darkness."

"And you, you can create sparks of light for the universe."

"The nature of that light is—hope."

"God believed that you were the light of hope, and therefore chose you as an angel."

"Afterwards, the god guided you to Qingshen Village and granted you the ability to see a thousand miles."

"With your clairvoyance, you can see through the deep darkness of the universe, and then defeat the darkness with the essence of your hope."

The reason behind Kyoko Byakuya's many miraculous encounters on the cross is thus revealed.

"Hey, wait a minute, I have a question."

Xia Jie abruptly appeared among the samurai controlled by the long-haired cult leader who had traveled back to the Edo period. With a casual wave of her hand, she eliminated all the evil elements, including the cult leader, and then, somewhat curiously, began to ask:

"First of all, everything in the universe was created by God, right?"

As she spoke, Xia Jie waved her hand again, snapping all the ropes, and the person on the cross slowly landed under the whirlwind's support.

"Yes." Migler nodded.

"If God created the universe, why didn't God determine its essence as light from the very beginning?"

"Why go through all the trouble of guiding so-called angels to this time and place? With God's power, He could simply shatter the darkness and illuminate the universe, couldn't He?"

Xia Jie raised her question and waited for Migler's answer.

He has temporarily lost his multidimensional insight and, after entering this universe, he can no longer sense the dark evil god that exists deep within the universe in the comics.

But he was too lazy to slowly piece together the truth using the intuition brought by the drill of his heart, so he simply came to ask this missionary who was not a riddle teller.

"...Because God is in a very bad state."

Miguel closed his eyes and pondered for a while, as if listening to divine pronouncements, before answering Xia Jie's question after more than ten seconds.

"Only this one universe was created by God, while all other universes are equally ruled by boundless darkness."

"That darkness has stained God's universe, and God needs to stop the invasion of the dark forces; He has no energy left to do anything more."

"yes."

Xia Jie plucked a golden hair from Bai Ye and Miguel's heads, analyzing the power within them while continuing to talk:

"Kyoko Byakuya comes from the future, you live in the present, and the past, present, and future are all relative concepts."

"The present is the future of the past, and the present is the past of the future. These three are just different points on the spacetime axis, and there is no essential difference between them."

"Since there can be more than one point in spacetime, it means that in this universe, the past, present, and future are already completed and predetermined existences."

Xia Jie's words were not harsh language questioning the authority of the gods, but they made Miguel and Bai Ye gradually frown. The villagers who had gathered around were completely confused and did not understand what this person who had come to the rescue was saying.

What are you trying to say?

Well, it seems Miguel didn't quite understand either.

"What I mean is, since God said that light will surely overcome darkness, and the future already exists, then the light that you and Kyoko Shirayaki embodied should have already defeated the darkness."

"Furthermore, since you can travel through time, you victorious individuals should be able to bring light to the past."

"But the reality is that there is no such thing as the future redeeming the past, which only shows that you have not won."

"Or perhaps, you won incompletely, and the future you, who did not achieve complete success, cannot return."

"Your God, too, this struggle between light and darkness will probably last forever."

As they spoke, in Xia Jie's hand, the two people's golden hair merged into one, intertwining with the long-haired cult leader's black hair in a spiral shape.

"this……"

"Really?"

"That can't be right, can it?"

Xia Jie's deductions based on existing intelligence clearly surprised everyone present.

Miguel closed his eyes again to listen to the oracle, while the villagers, who only half understood, discussed among themselves, none of them wanting to believe Xia Jie's words.

"God said, 'O Son of Man who came from beyond heaven, He needs your help.'"

After closing his eyes for a few breaths, Miguel opened them and looked at Xia Jie with pleading eyes.

"I really can't help you."

Xia Jie gave a helpless smile, and the light and darkness spiral in her hand began to accelerate.

"This is a one-time offer."
