Mystery: Chaos Path

“Mr. Azik, are you alright?”

Faced with Klein's concern, Azik, even though he hadn't fully recovered from the memories of the past, still revealed a gentle smile. He looked at Klein and said:

“I'm fine. Actually, although this memory integration had some twists and turns, there's no major problem. Perhaps with one more time, I can recover all of my memories.”

“That's good.” Klein breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had completely accepted the existence of the Death Consul and believed that Azik's essence had never changed, because he knew that Mr. Azik had once been severely influenced by that old codger, Death, Klein couldn't help but still be a little worried about Azik's memory integration.

Azik then looked at Luo Lin, and said with some emotion: “Your mask helped a lot. I really don't know how to thank you, Lucifer.”

“If you really want to thank me, then keep trying to live! Integrating past memories is not the most difficult challenge, the most difficult part is still on your other half of the soul.” Luo Lin said with a smile.

This was the truth. Although integrating past memories was a huge challenge, Azik's other half of the soul, which had integrated the Uniqueness, was obviously a bigger problem. Otherwise, in the original book, the Goddess of the Night would not have said, “If Azik integrates that half of his soul, he will become the former Death Consul.”

If Luo Lin guessed correctly, Azik's other half of his soul should be the part of His divinity.

It can be said that even if the current Azik completely integrates the memories of the past, if he loses in the confrontation with the divine self, then everything will be in vain.

“I know, I… I will definitely defeat the divinity and live.” Azik naturally knew that what Lucifer said was true. He took a breath, but he didn't have any frustrated expression. Instead, he seemed to have thought of something again, and smiled gently, his eyes swept over Luo Lin, Klein, and finally landed on the Death Consul.

Azik looked at the Death Consul holding a black piece in his hand, his eyes fell on the chessboard in front of Him, and then returned to the face of the Death Consul. That face, which had always been calm, now had some real gentleness.

Azik was in a trance. In the memories He had just integrated, He had never seen Himself in the Death Consul period show such an expression. The former Death Consul was always cold, always calm. He would only carry out Death's various orders meticulously, and could only do so.

But now some things have changed quietly.

So Azik looked at the Death Consul, and He suddenly smiled gently: “I also believe that I will never become the puppet without self again, because the puppet has grown a heart.”

The Death Consul was stunned for a moment. After thinking for a few seconds, He said seriously: “You still need to be careful of Father.”

“I know, I will be very careful of Him.” Azik nodded, then smiled, and said: “But I won't be afraid anymore. The former me could grow a trace of self under the suppression of Death, and the current me will never let this self completely disappear.”

Luo Lin raised his eyebrows when he saw this, and suddenly curled the corners of his mouth, smiled, and said softly:

“How interesting!”

The Death Consul of the past, because the current Azik has obtained help from the future, has obtained a true self. In turn, this self has obviously helped the current Azik to some extent.

Luo Lin even had a hunch that perhaps in the future soul integration, this self belonging to the Death Consul will become the key for Azik's humanity to not be swallowed by divinity.

“Past, present, future, changed and unchanged…” Luo Lin sighed in his heart, only feeling interesting, “Azik's past has not really been changed, even if He has a trace of emotion, this emotion has not brought great changes to His past, but on the contrary, this may change Azik's future.”

“The past cannot be changed, but can the future be changed, even if this change comes from the past…” Luo Lin suddenly thought of many things, revealing a thoughtful expression.

After intermittently summoning the Ancient Sun God, the Angel of War, and other existences, Luo Lin had almost confirmed that the difficulty of truly changing the past in this time and space was similar to that of his hometown. Small details can be changed casually, but changing key nodes is as difficult as climbing to the sky.

Otherwise, the people around Luo Lin, such as the True Creator and Medici, would have changed long ago due to the changes in the key nodes of history.

The fact is that, despite the repeated attempts by existences such as the Ancient Sun God, the past is still the same. Perhaps there have been changes in small details, but the general direction has not changed in any way.

It can only be said that history does have inertia.

Of course, Luo Lin sometimes thinks about whether everything would change if he were in those time and spaces and personally changed those key nodes.

After all, the fate of the current era is like this. The fate that he personally changed will no longer change, and many things that Luo Lin did not intervene in have turned back to the original plot.

It's a pity that Luo Lin doesn't have the ability to travel through time and space, so this guess can only be a guess and cannot be tested.

And now the situation of the Death Consul and Azik has brought Luo Lin some new thinking—it is impossible to directly let others change the past, so if, like the Death Consul, we make changes that can be achieved but will not affect the past, and then use this change to change the future of the person involved, is it feasible?

Luo Lin felt that this point could be observed to see whether the Death Consul's self could become the key for Azik to devour divinity, as he guessed.
