"!"

 Xingmo snapped back to reality, the golden symbol fading from the edge of his vision.

 What caught her eyes was Aurora's bloody smile, and the tip of the spear that pierced the girl's chest and her fate.

 Xingmo stared blankly into the pair of blood-red eyes. For a moment, she seemed to be back on the ridge of Caradorans.

 That was our first meeting.

 And this time...

 "...I...like you..."

 Aurora reached out her hand and gently placed it on Xingmo's face.

 Then... it slid down... leaving a faint trace of blood...

 ...END...

Chapter 367 "Destiny"

 Will God fall?

 From the ancient golden sun to the dark moon dragon that soars in the eternal night.

 Just like the stars, the sun, and the moon, gods are no different from humans and will all die.

 Gods...will also fall...

 ""

 "Sizzle!"

 Starlight burst out, and the Spear of Ivramis rolled to the side, the tip of the spear stained with blood.

 Xingmo hugged Aurora's gradually losing temperature body, and chaotic spiritual power filled the surroundings - that was the broken authority.

 Aurora saved the Tree of Life and the Lost Realm... and blocked the blow of fate.

 She used all her strength to twist her fate at the last moment of her life.

 It’s to protect Xingmo.

 "...ah..."

 Xing Mo was stunned for a moment, her mouth slightly open, her hands trembling constantly as she tried to grab Aurora's gradually disintegrating body.

 Aurora...how could she die?

 She...she's a god...! She's an evil god! She's the one who looks down on the world...

 Can God die?

 She...died like that? For me...?

 "no no..."

 Xingmo hugged Aurora in his arms, trying desperately to feel the warmth of life from her body.

 But when a small tree begins to wither...even the last bit of warmth will be taken away by the wind...

 "Do not..."

 Tears slid down her cheeks, Xingmo's mind was in a mess, she didn't even know what she was thinking.

 She simply hugged Aurora, whose eyes were tightly closed, as her spirit gradually disintegrated...

 "...Hehehe."

 In the distance, Cain watched this scene playfully, with a slight curve at the corner of his mouth.

 "How amazing..." she exclaimed sincerely, "An angel from the High Heavens actually blocked the blow of fate... even at the cost of his own life... this is incredible..."

 She walked towards Xingmo step by step, with the six black wings behind her curled up, and the black feathers absorbed the light around her.

 As the wings absorbed all the light, everyone in the Star-Picking Pavilion fell to the ground and lost consciousness.

 "Sleep in peace... The meaningless struggle ends here..."

 "Don't be sad, these are all necessary sacrifices..."

 Cain rubbed her wrist gently, and a dagger appeared in her hand:

 "You... are my perfect carrier... When I devour you... and become you... I will walk the world in your body..."

 "I will tightly grasp the string of the shepherd star, causing the starry sky to flow backwards, and my mother's vision will finally come true..."

 But before she took a few steps, she saw a golden light rising.

 She saw Xingmo raised his head angrily, holding Aurora in one hand and pinching his heart with the other.

 Six illusory golden wings gradually appeared behind her, and golden light broke through her body, dyeing her emerald eyes pure gold.

 "Do we really have to fight in such a meaningless way?" Cain chuckled, "You know... you can't win against me..."

 Xingmo didn't say anything. Sadness and anger overwhelmed her mind like a huge wave, and golden starlight swirled in her pupils.

 She didn't know what to do, so she directly detonated the extraordinary power in her body -

 "boom----"

 Golden starlight gushed out, submerging the entire Star-Picking Pavilion.

 Everything turned into incandescent golden light. In this light, Xingmo gradually lost consciousness.

 Reason dissipated along with the destruction of the spirit, and the suppressed supernatural power surged out and broke through the body.

 In the last moment before his intelligence reached the critical point, Xing Mo used his reason to do one last thing -

 —He hugged Aurora tightly.

 Then, pure light engulfed everything.

 ""

 ""

 ""

 “So, you finally believe in fate.”

 The sound came from far, far away.

 Raindrops hit the windows, accompanied by a slight rustling sound from the wind.

 The train roared along the rails, steam gushing out, its long silhouette cutting across the grassland.

 Xingmo opened her eyes and found herself sitting on a train.

 She looked up and saw a young girl sitting opposite her.

 He has white hair and red eyes, and his face is calm, but there seems to be a sea of ​​stars hidden in his pupils.

 "Ms. Perlis...?"

 Xing Mo opened her mouth slightly and immediately looked around:

 "Where's Aurora? She..."

 "She was pierced by the Spear of Ivramis," Perlis said calmly, "According to the power of that divine spear to end fate, she will die."

 Ah... It's not a dream...

 Xing Mo's lips trembled slightly, and then she lowered her head:

 "...It's all my fault."

 "Have you accepted your fate?" Perlis spread her fingers on the table.

 "I finally realized... fate cannot be defied..." Xing Mo shook her head, "No matter what I do... it has already been determined..."

 "Everything will come to an end at some point. All coincidences are inevitable, and all free will is an illusion..."

 The core of the Giant King's Court, the golden spear.

 The forest of Messina waits for the golden branches to bloom on time after a thousand years, the followers of the old gods.

 Everything is gathered on one line and extends all the way.

 And now, it is time for Xingmo, the chess piece, to be restrained.

 Cain saw the ending. Even if she did nothing and just waited quietly, Xingmo would come to her and fall into the trap.

 The force majeure of fate.

 "If Cain is destined to cast the spear of fate..." Xingmo turned to look at the blurry rain outside the window, "How can I avoid being hit?"

 "But you weren't hit," said Perlis. "She saved you."

 "But she's dead..." Xing Mo pursed her lips, "I can't save her, nor can I save myself... That magic gun will eventually pierce through my fate... and kill me..."

 After saying that, Xingmo lowered his head and said no more.

 Looking at her decadent appearance, Perlis smiled softly.

 "What do you think..." Her voice was very soft. "If fate is bound to kill you, then why would Aurora stand in your way?"

 "She..." Xing Mo's heart was in turmoil, "She said..."

 I like you.

 Xing Mo couldn't say it out loud. She didn't dare and felt that she was not worthy.

 Seeing this, Perlis whispered in a voice like a stream:

 "That child actually admires you very much. She thinks you are a brave fool who is willing to take risks for others and even sacrifice your own life."

 "I'm relieved... that she ended up doing something similar—throwing herself at the flame like a moth, facing her inevitable fate."

 "This illustrates the greatness of life and free will."

 As Perlis spoke, she tapped the table lightly with her index finger.

 She seemed to have no sadness at all, and when she talked about Aurora's death, she didn't act like a sister who had lost her sister.

 Xingmo raised her head, looked directly at Perlis, and said softly:

 "...Ms. Perlis, can you save her?"

 "I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I can't interfere with your reality in my current state," Perlis shook her head. "The fact that I can talk to you this way is due to the extraordinary essence you emanate and the small hints I left behind in the White Tower."

 "...No, don't apologize," Xingmo whispered, "I should be sorry for not protecting her well."

 Hearing this, Perlis smiled faintly.

 She looked at Xingmo, the light in her eyes somewhat unfathomable.

 "So, let's get back to our original question."

 She changed the subject:

 "Do you believe in fate?"

 "Even after Aurora stepped forward and sacrificed her life to change your fate..."

 "Do you believe in fate, too?"

 "I..." Xing Mo raised her head, "but..."

 That gun definitely sealed Aurora's fate.

 "The power of the Spear of Ivramis... is to end fate..." Xingmo whispered, "I can control the flow, but Cain can only control the ending..."

 "In the face of her power, I..."

 "Your thinking is very sharp," Perlis tapped the table with her index finger again. "You realized something, but you didn't even realize you realized it."

 "What...?"

 "It's very simple."

 Perlis cleared her throat:

 "Whether it's you, Cain, or the Star Sea Goddess..."

 "The destiny you control is essentially just a force."

 "Like all strings, you control only one element of the natural force. Just as the controller of the fire string can create fire out of thin air, you can resonate with the concept of cause and effect through the combination of various strings."
