MTL - For Thousands of Years, My Weakest Brother Has Become a Demon King (1000 Years Later, Even My Weakest Follower Has Become A Demon King)-Chapter 249 surrender

The voice of    fell to the ground, and the entire Holy Tree Temple of the Great Mother fell into a dead silence.

  Most people looked at William who said this with puzzled eyes. Indeed, living in a linear logic time until now, without thinking at a higher narrative level, it is naturally difficult for them to understand the meaning of William's words.

   There were only two people present who could roughly understand what William meant.

   One is Elis, who briefly exchanged consciousness with Sibilla in an abandoned timeline in the past through [God's Eye].

   The other is Flaro, who got Neh's legacy and learned the true origin of the forest elves.

   However, even they were shocked by William's previous speech.

   Elis used [God's Eye] and his surname as a medium not long ago, and returned to a timeline that had been cut, and interacted with a certain past character there. She knew better than anyone what the so-called alternate timeline was all about.

   In broken time, contradictory possibilities can indeed exist simultaneously. But based on the characteristics of causal time in this world, after crossing a certain point of divergence, those contradictory timelines will eventually be condensed into a definite possibility, and other possibilities will only be discarded. Therefore, it is only natural that intelligence will only be passed down as the only record in the end, and this is the so-called historical truth.

Memory is also a kind of intelligence. In other words, even if this man named "William" really broke the timeline at that time in the battle with the rotten lady, he should only remember the history that has been handed down today. The truth is right!

However, the reality is that he not only remembers the different timelines he has experienced, but even—if he did not exaggerate, he even chose one of the timelines by his own will as the current historical truth. .

Being able to see multiple contradictory and parallel broken timelines at the same time, being able to take the initiative to observe and fix them, and even be able to choose the future you want with your own will... This is definitely not something that mortals can do, compared to What burns the mountains and boils the sea, compared to calling thunder and lightning and storms, can shape the historical truth of the world on the timeline, this is the real power of the gods!

   To be honest, although she was chosen to be the leader of the Blind Sisterhood, she was tasked with correcting the nature of the Eighth Holy Spirit belief. But she has never believed that there are mortals who can embody the true power of the Holy Spirit-whether it is William Kane or Tyra Riel, in her view, it is just a new form created by the power of the Eighth Holy Spirit. Just an ancient god. It is only based on the beliefs of the people that a shell with divinity is created, but in essence, it is no different from those "authorities" in the Bronze Calendar period.

  But the man in front of him...if he can really see it and choose a timeline...

   No matter how he did it, he was no different from a real **** in terms of being able to shape the timeline.

   On the side of Flaro, she was shocked by another thing.

   In a certain time line that has not continued to this day, he really defeated the emptiness incarnation of the rotten lady with his own power without relying on the help of the "big mother" and "father of the wilderness".

   In other words, it was he who counted down the destruction of Ravenwood by more than a thousand years.

   He can grab the right to shape the timeline of the present world in the hands of the Void King!

Even, he gave up the supreme glory of defeating the incarnation of the starving and rotten lady alone, and instead chose the future where the ancient gods of the forest elves fell into eternal sleep, as the development direction of the timeline - he gave the forest elves to get rid of the constraints of the gods. , the opportunity to redeem yourself in the future.

   Even before the two ancient gods fell into a deep sleep, they turned to the forest elves with their wishes that "the era that belongs to you has come".

   In the more than a thousand years since he left, if any leader of the forest elves is willing to give up the sick blessing system and carry out a thorough reform. Just like human beings, if they completely abandon the power of ancient gods derived from myths and beliefs, and start to develop a magic system, they will not develop to the point where the number of "forests" breaks through the critical value. The original history may be completely replaced by the rotten lady at any time. the situation...

After Flaro came to power, with his strong strength, he continued to promote the pan-imperialist reform with an iron fist, and introduced the faith of the Holy Spirit Church, in order to end the forest elves that lasted thousands of years before everything became irreversible. mistake.

   "I'm sorry, we... failed your past efforts, our ancestors failed to understand you... and the deep meaning of those two gods doing what they did."

   "I've tried my best to change, I just don't know if there's enough time."

   was silent for a long time, and Flora bowed his head and apologized to William.

   "Huh? Mmmm...it's okay, it's not too late...probably."

   William, who had no idea why the other party suddenly apologized to him so solemnly, forcibly resisted the urge to ask, and replied vaguely.

   "Well! We still have hope!"

   Flaro nodded vigorously.

   As long as you are there.

  William, who read the meaning in the eyes of the other party, panicked even more.

  What the **** is she talking about...

  In the entire Sacred Tree Temple, only Nezemar's expression did not change significantly.

  Although things like the timeline, choice or abandonment, the origin of the Void King...she doesn't quite know what it means. But for her, the Holy Spirit of course transcends the limitations of time and space, and is essentially an infinite existence. The Eighth Holy Spirit should have been high in the realm of light with infinite possibilities, but it was only because of his compassion for the present world that he was born in Vic Continent and became the current William Kane.

   Since it is the incarnation of the eighth Holy Spirit "Hermit" projected into the world, it is not difficult for him to choose the timeline of the world.

   After all, the world itself was created collectively by the Holy Spirit, so isn’t it normal to shape the timeline of the world?

   Therefore, compared to these complicated time theories that make people feel half-understood, at this moment Nezemar is more concerned about more realistic things.

"Since you say so, can I think that you are ready to meet the incarnation of the Eighth Holy Spirit, the Lord of the Vic Continent, the true Emperor of the Empire, the leader of the End Watcher, the Judge of the Thirteenth Tribunal, the Moon The scourge of the realm... surrender to the great and merciful Lord William Kane. And will you kneel to his hands and offer the entire Jade Province as proof of your loyalty?"

   had walked back to Nezemar who was next to William, gently released Elis's hand, and stood in front of Flaro, she said this with a serious and devout expression.

   "Nezmaar!"

  William, who was caught off guard by her sudden arrival, subconsciously stopped him.

   "Ah, sorry, I..."

   After being called by William's name, Nezemael, whose shoulders trembled slightly in fright, immediately turned around, her face was full of sincere apologies, and she bowed her head slightly to apologize.

   Just before William could say anything, she continued to reflect:

   "Shouldn't I say the 'Jade Province', an administrative region roughly demarcated by the incarnation of the false Holy Spirit. Should I call it Rivenwood and the surrounding tribal kingdoms, according to the parlance of your time?"

   Is this the point?

  William felt like he would lose if he discussed this with her seriously.

   Although he came here this time, he hoped to directly classify the entire Ravenwood area into the sphere of influence, but it is a bit too direct to say so.

   After all, it's easy to get in touch, and William can also feel that Flaro is a guy who eats soft and not hard. It is not difficult to seize power from her, but giving up this person and finding a qualified ruler in an organization like the Oak Council may be better than finding a calm moon monster in the moon realm of the King of Dead Blood Both are difficult.

However…

"I am willing to give the whole of Jade Province, or Ravenwood, whatever it is... I am willing to give you the sphere of my rule. I am willing to submit to the rule of the Eighth Spirit for the rest of my life, until the four seas are at peace, Until the whole empire is back to the right people..."

   Flaro spoke slowly.

but…

  William said silently in his heart.

"However, this is based on the premise that the kingdom you rule will not be a scorched earth full of ashes and dust. I know that the best and surest way to stop the Rotten Lady's plan is to destroy the entire Ravenwood Forest. Burn to ashes. And frankly, if you end up doing it, it's the right thing to do...both intellectually and emotionally."

   Flaro looked at William with a very calm expression and said so.

"But if you're going to do it, then I'll be a hindrance in your way. No matter how insignificant the obstacle may be to you, but... I'll do everything in my power to stop it, Even with my own life. I know in the end I may not change anything, but that's the only reason I'm still in this ravaged country, and that's why I'm still alive today."

   Looking at the determination in the other's eyes, William sighed invisibly and said:

   "Can you ask why?"

   To this question, Flallo replied:

   "Because this is the country I live in, because I believe that the future will be able to overcome this hurdle, because..."

   Having said this, Flaro paused, as if hesitating whether to say the following words.

   After being silent for a while, she opened the mouth as if she had made up her mind:

"Please allow my arrogance...because it is the last wish of my mentor, Neh, that Ravenwood can continue forever, and that all forest elves can be redeemed. Although he is my mentor, you may feel a little bit. Ridiculous. I am separated from his era by a thousand years, and I only got his inheritance through a few scrolls... But this is the only wish, and I hope to do my best to protect him."

After    finished speaking, she took a long breath, then looked at William nervously, waiting for the final judgment given by the other party.

   At this moment, the expression on William's face was gloomy and uncertain. He first looked at the spell matchmaker in his hand, and then looked at the holy holy emblem neatly placed in the depths of the temple. After a long time, he sighed.

   Flaro instantly felt that her heart was up in her throat—of course, it was just a feeling, after all, her heart stopped beating for a long time.

"I don't want your loyalty to be based on lies and pressure, it's meaningless, it will only increase hidden dangers in the future... So I will make it clear at the beginning, if in the end, the only way is to burn Ravenwood to the ground. There is a way to go. Then for the safety of the whole world, I will make the right choice. At that time, anyone who tries to stop me will be resolutely eliminated as an enemy..."

   William said so.

  The expression on Flaro's face became lost, and at the same time, her hand holding the spell matchmaker slowly clenched, and Nezemar on the side became nervous.

"So, I can only give you this promise - I bear my name as a witness, and I, William Kane, will do everything in my power to prevent the worst from happening. Even if only one in 10,000 saves from Ravenwood. I will do my best to save it. This is not only to redeem the 40 million forest elves that have been treed and their souls imprisoned in place. It is also to fulfill my friend Neh's last wish to guard this land."

  William walked over to Flaro while he said that. He lowered his head slightly and looked straight into the other party's ice blue eyes, and then continued:

"So, in order to create a chance for Ravenwood's redemption, I need your unreserved assistance. At least until it is finally determined that this land is completely irredeemable, you must do everything you can to help me. On the one hand, if I finally make it clear that the 'final solution' must be used to stop the big plan of the rotten lady, I will tell you as soon as possible and give you a chance to try to stop me... Do you accept such conditions? "

  William said, and stretched out his right hand, which was covered in rings.

   "What do you think is the probability of eventually redeeming the entire Ravenwood... Seriously, can I trust you?"

   After listening to William's words, Flaro asked with some trembling in his voice.

   "A thousand and eight years ago, what was the probability that the entire Vic Continent thought I could exile all the Void Kings back to the Moon? And how many people believed me at that time?"

   In this regard, William asked rhetorically.

After hearing this answer, Flaro lowered his head and tidied up his black dress inlaid with gold threads, and then, with impeccable etiquette, knelt down on one knee on the floor of the temple, and knelt on the floor of this man from a thousand people. Before the legend of years ago.

   Then, under the witness of everyone present, she gently raised William's right hand and kissed lightly on the ring that symbolized the trial seat.
