This elf world is a bit strange

......

The total solar eclipse has ended, and the bright sunshine shines on the vibrant fields, covering the pure white Arceus with a golden veil.

"Great Creator, please forgive my ignorance and weakness. Mitina broke her promise."

Outside the temple gate, Damos bent down with guilt and apologized to Arceus, who had regained his composure.

Around him, people from all over Midina gathered and looked at the king's back.

[…Indeed, Mitina broke her promise to return the source of life on time.]

After a long silence, Arceus looked at his future self who was now hidden in the void and spoke slowly.

"..."

Damos' heart sank and he let out a silent sigh.

【But that’s not the case. 】

Arceus changed the subject and said with a playful look on his face.

Perhaps influenced by the real Arceus, it found Damos's fearful look interesting.

After a brief observation, it stopped teasing its devout believers and said aloud:

[Damos, you have fulfilled another promise and created a fertile land suitable for people to live in. Although it still has many problems, I believe that you will get better and better. ]

Rising into the air, Arceus looked down at the vibrant plateau and wilderness, his eyes filled with joy and relief.

[This place is still too small. Perhaps one day, you will walk down from the Mitina Peak and head towards a wider world.]

【By then you will find that, rather than the source of life, the power of life is the source of all things. 】

【I will watch all this and bless you. 】

The gods are hidden in the sky, and countless golden spots of light are scattered, carrying the sincere wishes of the Creator.

......

......

In the void, Arceus from the real world also smiled with relief.

After taking a deep look at his past self hidden in the sky, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

A playful breeze blew, ruffling its mane and delivering its last "parting gift".

The world's repulsive force is growing stronger and stronger, and even it dares not be careless at all.

The one who embodies all things and rules is its omnipotent original body that split and perished with the creation of the world, rather than this powerful clone that has its own limitations.

It is the bearer and user of rules, rather than the master of rules.

But before leaving, it still has something to face.

"Arceus, we need to talk. From suspicion at the beginning to rescue at the end, it's quite a coincidence. Don't you have anything to say?"

With a sneer on his face and the dream demon rubbing his hands ready to fight, Firion approached Arceus silently and asked sinisterly.

A big hand has quietly been placed on its head.

[…What are you talking about? Mewtwo is waiting impatiently over there, let’s go back first.]

Arceus had a harmless smile on his face.

It is obviously the invincible creator, but somehow, when it saw Firion and the little dream demon coming to challenge, it always felt inexplicably short of breath.

Not giving Firion the chance to continue his attack, Arceus fixed his eyes, and the repulsive force of space turned into a pushing force to move away.

With a flash of white light, it protected Firion and his companions and escaped into the long river of time again, leaving this world that did not belong to them.

-----------------

In the present world, at the ruins of Mitina, Sina, whose body had become almost translucent in her sleep and whose breath was barely visible, slowly woke up under Kebin's worried gaze.

The body that had almost dissipated solidified again, a timeline became stable again, and she who was almost disappearing also reestablished her existence.

"Arzeus's judgment... seems to have disappeared, and there are a lot more...fuzzy things in my head."

Muttering to herself, with the help of Kebin, Hina, who had been bedridden for many days, walked out of the ruins, stroked the smooth stone pillars that looked like new, and looked into the distance.

It is no longer a barren wilderness, but a fertile land full of vitality that is green even in winter.

A stone slab that has stood the test of time appears abruptly but naturally in the open space outside the temple ruins.

There were a few small figures standing between the gods standing opposite each other. Their shapes were already very blurry, but their images were exceptionally clear, giving Hina a special sense of intimacy.

Although they had never met before, she was filled with joy as soon as she saw this scene.

Following the magical super-power, she seemed to see the ancestor's honest face, and the Pokémon surrounding him in three circles inside and outside.

And...several figures hiding in the dark that could not be seen clearly no matter what.

Endless years have never erased the traces of those people who have passed by.

At least that's how it was remembered.

Bidding farewell to the gods, ancient life embraced its own era.

An era where history is created with the tiny power of ordinary life instead of external forces.

When she raised her head, a pure white figure flashed across the clouds, shedding starlight, and disappeared without a trace.

Chapter 324 The Creator and Mortals

"So, where is the Mewtwo you mentioned who's been waiting anxiously? Where did you throw this big cat that I left here?"

Everything was going on as usual in the Hall of Origin. Firion was sitting cross-legged on the ground with an angry dream demon above his head, who seemed determined not to leave unless he was given an explanation.

[Who is the cat you put here? Do you want to die? ]

Without waiting for Arceus to speak, Mewtwo, who had been hiding in Crown Mountain and waiting silently, flashed and broke through the outer defenses of the Temple of Origin, opening a hole in Arceus' "nest", fell heavily to the ground, and glared at Firion fiercely.

【…】

Arceus looked up at the Temple of Origin with a big hole in it. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He could only pretend that nothing had happened and put the broken pieces back together to restore the temple to its original state.

The family is not well off, so they have to mend their ways for another three years.

"Oh, I'm glad you're okay. That unlucky Darkrai must have already returned to Poplar Town. Don't worry about him."

Standing up as if nothing had happened and patting Mewtwo's shoulder, Firion stood side by side with Mewtwo without showing any embarrassment at all, looking seriously at Arceus who had transformed into a tinker.

"Now there is only one question left, Arceus, are you deliberately setting this up to trick me?"

Rather than arguing about right and wrong with our own big cat, now is the time to unite against the outside world.

Although everyone was happy in the end, it was also a fact that he was almost turned into a human specimen by ancient Arceus, not to mention the tremendous pain of forcibly controlling the energy of time and space.

Especially there is the Tyrannosaurus who has not woken up yet, with different lights flashing all over his body, his breath is getting stronger and stronger, but he looks very painful.

Thinking of this, Firion felt furious. He, who always refused to give in, pressed Arceus aggressively.

[This... the restoration timeline has a long history and tradition, and there are many trainers who have this experience...]

Arceus' expression became dull, his eyes were blurred, and he slowly began to talk nonsense.

Firio clenched his fists. "I'm asking if you set a trap to trick me! Do you dare to say that you don't know what kind of person you were at that time? You even lied to me and said that you should investigate whether Damos tricked you. You are really dramatic!"

【……! 】

After a long silence, Arceus took a few steps back inconspicuously, slightly increasing the distance between him and Firion and Incubus, but suddenly found that Mewtwo had silently blocked his way behind him.

Looking around, what caught my eye were the tense faces of Nancy and Korni.

[…Damos, Mitina’s situation is very complicated, and it is necessary to investigate it thoroughly…]

"You still say you haven't seen my memories?! You're having so much fun with all these tricks! How come I didn't realize you were such a pervert when we first met?"

Without waiting for Arceus to say anything, Firion used his interrupting skill, leaped directly onto Arceus' back, grabbed the mane on top of his head and pulled hard.

[It hurts, it hurts, it hurts... I won’t pretend anymore! I won’t pretend anymore! I admit that I didn’t tell you the whole truth! ]

Although this little bit of power meant nothing to Arceus, knowing that he was in the wrong, he still cooperated and bent down, lying on the ground, and cried out in pain in a very polite manner.

At this moment, the majesty of the God of Creation disappeared completely.

......

......

After a while, Arceus regained his divine majesty. His tall and upright body was sparkling with crystal white light, holy and noble.

Only its unkempt mane gave away its fate.

[According to what you said before, we should have formed a bond. You are so resentful. ]

The plain words contained a hint of grievance, but when it thought about what it had done during this period, it was very self-aware and chose to give the wronged Firio a little privilege.

This is also part of the rules.

Thinking of this, Arceus felt a little better.

"I've never seen anyone hide anything from their friends."

Firion glanced at Arceus in annoyance. He was no longer surprised by Arceus's self-talk and moral victory.

With a wave of his hand, a few soft chairs appeared in the empty Hall of Origin.

"This time, we have suffered a lot for your little trick. Emperor Nabo and the others were seriously injured, and the Tyrannosaurus has not woken up yet. I'm asking you for a reason. Is that too much?"

Leaning leisurely in the chair with his legs crossed, Firion, who had no fear of Arceus at all, was more relaxed than at home after passing the ancient trip.

[This matter... may not sound good, but destroying that strange metal is not only helpful to me, but also a very important task for the world. ]

The omniscient and omnipotent God also looked a little embarrassed, with a hint of embarrassment and a sense of secrecy in his confusion.

"They are all very important to this world... I have always wanted to know this. According to the legend, the entire world should have been created by you, or by your original body that has disappeared."

When it came to the point, Firio became more lively, holding his chin with one hand and asking the question that had puzzled him in Mitina.

What is the origin of that strange silver water, a variant of mercury from another world, that could hurt Arceus and make him willing to pay a huge price to find someone to return to ancient times to solve the problem?

And... Arceus was in a period of history where he was not directly attacked by the Silver Water, but was only injured by shattering the meteorite.

Faintly, Firion felt as if he had touched the secrets and core information of the world.

Korni and Nancy also pricked up their ears. Although they were confused by what they heard, they were very interested in such secrets and wanted to hear the whole story.

Only Mewtwo pretended to be indifferent, crossed his arms and turned his head away with disdain, but the little dream demon who saw through him tilted his head and listened attentively.

[You guys... this cannot be leaked, please don't spread it. ]

Feeling everyone's curiosity and not wanting to keep it secret any longer, Arceus, who trusted them, just sighed, gave them a few instructions, and then told them the secret of the world's creation.

......

......

It is not false that this world was created by Arceus.

In the primitive universe where there was only chaos and even the concepts of time and space did not exist, it was the almost omnipotent Arceus who created the world as if Pangu had created the sky.

Create matter and spirit, create all rules, and give them real existence with your own life.

This is a great feat of creating something from nothing, and it can also be said to be a self-sacrifice.

Since then, there has been no real "Creator God Arceus", only clones in which each parallel world is independent of each other and can neither merge nor interfere with each other.

Each clone has his own personality, and because of their different experiences, they lead the world towards different paths. This is also the so-called countless possibilities of the world.

But the world in which Arceus incarnates is not the complete universe, but only a part of it.

In the unknown realm that has exhausted all perception, there are still many mysterious things, some of which can even threaten this independent world and even destroy the rules that Arceus has created with his life.

Nothing remains constant except change itself.

As powerful as Arceus's clone is, he is only an executor of the rules. He possesses the highest authority, but he cannot be above the rules themselves, nor can he necessarily defeat things outside the rules, such as the meteorite that suddenly appeared on the edge of the planet from nowhere.

Even this world itself is sometimes expanding and sometimes collapsing, in a dynamic balance.

Omniscience and omnipotence are just an exaggeration, not the real fact.
