The Girls Are All Coveting Me-Chapter 427 - 363: I Choose Fufu

How could a deceased Beauty God possibly influence a living powerful divine power through fragments?

"Even though I originally guessed that it was impossible to interfere with Xilin's corruption, it's still quite frustrating."

Although Chloe doesn't claim to be a saint, he also dislikes seeing corpses everywhere, even if it's in the world within the painting.

The Stars, in order to seal the Seven Deadly Sins, caused their own information defense to have issues, leading to the emergence of seven disasters, which made almost every faction rise and fall throughout the Era of Turmoil.

It can be said that Chloe's animosity towards the Seven Great Calamities is not strong but incredibly pure.

Because he knows what his foolish eldest son paid to counter the Seven Great Calamities.

According to historical records, Diana, the only imperial consort of the Emperor and member of the original Hero Squad, was severely injured in the battle against Xilin's corruption, and eventually perished in a later calamity due to unhealed wounds.

That was Diana's daughter-in-law, who was employed as a Master Jade Phoenix with resurrection abilities but still died.

This event directly led to the irreversible pollution of his infant granddaughter Olivia, who had to be sealed in crystal until a solution was found a century later.

—Mm, if not for this, that rogue who kidnapped his granddaughter wouldn't have gotten lucky.

That rogue was Kai, the shameless fellow.

Suddenly.

Chloe trembled.

He remembered what he had forgotten, but just as he was about to tell the women, he closed his mouth.

Forget it, he'll find another chance himself.

[After Cedric, will he see the eldest son in the world within the painting?]

Moreover, it's different from Cedric.

Although Cedric's childhood wasn't so pleasant, he still experienced moments of familial love.

But the eldest son…

His memories are only of a fragmented family.

Chloe wouldn't feel like he had done wrong because of this.

It's just that the thought of meeting the eldest son, whom he never met before, made him feel complicated.

"What's wrong?"

Fufu looked at Chloe, her expression somewhat strange.

Although she didn't immediately associate this matter with her child, her Sixth Sense told her Chloe was thinking about something related to her.

"Nothing, I'll talk about it when we meet."

He sighed.

His past is buried before dawn.

And the night before dawn is precisely the deadliest time.

"I just... suddenly want to change the plan."

"Change the plan?" Fufu was a bit surprised, "Wasn't everything arranged before?"

"Yes, according to our original plan, we'll try to accumulate enough Fantasy Power in this period via Fantasy Show to forcibly elevate our own strength, and then eradicate Slaanesh's followers.

This way, with fewer restrictions from Slaanesh, the Love God Church has a certain probability of suppressing Xilin's corruption, thus buying more time for various forces to completely diminish the impact of this event."

In this plan, Chloe and others mainly play a role in delaying time, not as leaders.

With their powers limited, even with Fantasy Power, they couldn't participate in the main battlefield.

Nini said helplessly, "No way, you can't kill Xilin, you can only choose this."

Actually, the group had thought about directly eliminating the source of corruption [Xilin].

But it was actually difficult to do.

In "Nightmare Swarm," students had entered before.

But according to the literature left behind by past students, once attempting to kill Xilin, the Evil God Seed under Xilin's self-will suppression would sprout at the fastest speed.

At that time, it would swallow the Beauty God Fragment and Love God's Blessing, making the Dark Side of Love God appear in a stronger form.

This aligns with Chloe's understanding of such things.

The worst ending you think of might actually be the best option under the circumstances.

Neither killing nor not killing is right.

If there's a correct option, it wouldn't be called a choice.

Reality is that every choice is wrong; it just depends on what result Chloe and others can endure.

...

That night.

The group sneaked into Lilith's room after entering "Nightmare Swarm."

Rephya said speechlessly, "Chloe can't come, so let's discuss it first."

Lilith nodded.

She had long guessed such a situation would occur.

A male bishop sneaking to a female bishop at night, isn't he worried about something going wrong?

She glanced at Fufu, and after a moment of silence, said:

"Fufu, you probably have to handle this matter."

"Hmm?"

"Unfolding Fantasy Show... is not as smooth as we imagined."

Upon mentioning this, Lilith's face darkened.

When Fufu looked at her quizzically, Miseria could only interject to explain:

"Lilith and I tried to invoke some Fantasy Power today, found the situation off, our power limitations are more severe than we imagined?"

"Why? Normally, Fantasy Power should not be affected by external factors. Its predecessor is Spiritual Energy."

"The problem isn't whether Fantasy Power can be used."

Miseria whispered to explain the situation.

…

Location: Chloe's Room

Nini crawled in stealthily and talked about the conversation they had today.

"Are you saying Lilith and Miseria were both rejected by the Mythical Template?"

"Yes, the problem isn't with the Fantasy Power but with a situation that everyone had never encountered before."

"... I think I understand what's going on."

The destructive power released by the Fantasist through Fantasy Power is actually quite limited.

For Lilith and the others to increase output, they must use the Mythical Template.

The downside is that without a suitable Mythical Template, the power they can unleash is limited.

The upside is that once they find a suitable Mythical Template, the Actor can unleash explosive power.

Miseria actually has a relatively large number of Mythical Templates.

But ever since she acquired the Emperor Template, she began merging previous templates into the Extraordinary Origin, expanding a series of templates including the Filthy Moon Demon King Template through the Emperor Template.

And the template Lilith uses most often is the predecessor of the Child of the Sun Chaser, the Knight of the Fiery Sun template.

And the problem lies exactly here.

In the World in the Painting, the Emperor of this period has not ascended as a god yet.

Although he is very powerful now, he is completely different from the future Destruction Black Sun who can accurately identify those borrowing his power.

Moreover, if Chloe is not mistaken, the current Emperor... should still be quite a distance away from what people understand as the world's strongest.

As expected, this period's Emperor should be inheriting the power he left in the Shadow Plane.

Not to mention responding, he can't even control it himself.

At this time, if someone suddenly uses Fantasy Power to approach him and say, "Hey, buddy, I need to borrow your power," how would the Emperor react?

The answer is a unilateral cutoff of power supply.

Of course, this does not mean that the Fantasist has completely lost the Template power.

It's just that being forcibly interfered with by the source, the power that can be unleashed can't be so extraordinary.

"Then what's the situation with the Knight of the Fiery Sun?"

The Treasure Elf hugged Chloe's neck with both hands and tilted her head as she spoke.

"The predecessor of the Child of the Sun Chaser is the Knight of the Fiery Sun, and the predecessor of the Knight of the Fiery Sun is the former Pope of the Fiery Sun Church, the Healing Hero Sajia of the Seven Heroes.

During this period, Sajia, for some reason, had been unable to awaken the memories of the Seven Heroes, but his instincts remain.

He absolutely would not allow anyone to invade the position of his sole belief, even if that existence is his future self."

"..."

Fufu instantly knew where the problem lay.

Historical records state that the Child of the Sun Chaser never wanted to ascend as a god.

He would eventually ascend to the divine throne and become the new Sun God, but that was the wish of the Eternal Fierce Sun.

In a certain war during the Era of Turmoil, the Eternal Fierce Sun burned away the remnants of its presence in the world, allowing the Knight of the Fiery Sun to confront the gods.

The Eternal Fierce Sun has fallen, but it hoped there would be a new Sun God in the world, forever shining upon this land, bringing light and heat.

It entrusted this legacy to the Knight of the Fiery Sun.

But even after the Knight of the Fiery Sun ascended as a god, he chose the divine name "Child of the Sun Chaser."

As the name implies, a child chasing the Eternal Fierce Sun.

However, that world-shaking battle is more than a hundred years away from the timeline of the World in the Painting.

This means when Lilith attempts to use the power of the Knight of the Fiery Sun to awaken various templates of the Child of the Sun Chaser faction, the yet-to-ascend god instincts of the Knight of the Fiery Sun will resolutely reject such actions.

This is the reason both of their plans went awry.

"The most troublesome situation has occurred; we now seem to have to prepare ourselves mentally."

99.999% of Fantasists will never encounter such a situation in their lifetime.

Among the numerous records left in the Art Gallery Maze, there have indeed been Fantasists who entered the World in the Painting.

However, they never encountered such a situation.

"Did Lilith check any related records? The Mythical Templates currently used by Fantasists are mainly the legends and demigods from the Era of Turmoil to the Dawn Era, right?"

"Yes, Lilith checked; there are quite a few Fantasist students like us, but none have encountered our present situation."

"That precisely means our choice is correct."

"Hmm?"

"This World in the Painting definitely possesses Saint's Extraordinary Traits, and perhaps... more than one."

"That's right, only with such a high essence can the World in the Painting be complete enough to even grant the people in the painting the ability to suppress our professional system."

But the problem is now, the Fantasist System seems to be nearly banned; what can they make of it?

"Did Lilith say anything?"

"She did, but her request is very strange."

"Let me guess, if it were me, I would choose Fufu."

…

"If it were me, I would choose you, Fufu."

Lilith said to Fufu.
