Chapter 591: The Fall of the Sun, the Day Without Light
Hastur was certain he hadn't seen wrong; there was indeed a subtle change in the expression of the ancient Sun God at that moment.
It seemed he hadn't guessed incorrectly. At this moment, the fusion between Adam and the True Creator was not complete. They were merely temporarily merged, with their divinity and humanity each retaining their independence.
For Adam, Ouroboros held no particular significance and could be discarded at any time, becoming a necessary sacrifice.
However, for the True Creator, Ouroboros was not just a simple subordinate. The long companionship had infused the predominantly human True Creator with a bit more emotion.
"You think that by conjuring up a false True Creator and a divine kingdom, you can ensure Ouroboros's survival, don't you?"
Hastur drew a screen in the air, displaying the scene where the True Creator's divine kingdom was shattered and Ouroboros was taken by Will, who seized two Sequence 1 characteristics of the giant serpent from him.
The ancient Sun God remained expressionless, calmly watching the scene.
"Is this also a necessary sacrifice for you?"
"Indeed, Ouroboros is merely a replica of the former Medici. What's there to be reluctant about?"
"When you sent Ouroboros out as bait, you had already foreseen this scene. Your current silence is your final mourning, isn't it?" Hastur didn't mind twisting the knife further.
He had reason to believe that the humanity of the True Creator had not dissipated. The True Creator and Adam were merely temporarily fused, and their humanity and divinity had not yet determined who was the true ancient Sun God.
If their fusion were that easy, would Adam and the True Creator need to be so meticulous in their preparations?
"The eloquence of the Stars has improved significantly since our last meeting, almost shaking my resolve," the ancient Sun God said with a gentle smile.
"Oh, it's you, Adam," Hastur deliberately addressed him, distinguishing the True Creator from Adam as two separate entities.
"Such petty tricks are meaningless."
"I also find necessary sacrifices meaningless, yet you seem to enjoy them."
Since Adam already knew his identity, Hastur no longer needed to maintain the facade of the Stars before him. He would criticize and mock as he pleased.
"Stars, I look forward to our future encounters."
"Hmm, at Ouroboros's funeral?" Hastur said deliberately. "Or do you find holding a funeral too boring?"
"Death does not mean the end."
"True, you can always conjure up a new Ouroboros to accompany the True Creator."
The ancient Sun God said nothing more, only taking a deep look at the Hall of Stars before dispersing this consciousness.
"Ouroboros, the Angel King of the Path of Destiny, did he foresee his own end when you used him as bait?"
The consciousness of the ancient Sun God shattered, turning into light particles and dispersing.
In the Hall of Stars, Hastur murmured, "True Creator, how much of your humanity remains?"
This chaotic battle began when the Original Hunger discovered the isolated Ouroboros. Hastur naturally didn't want to miss this opportunity.
As for potential traps?
It was only the avatars of the Mother Tree of Desire, the Supernova Dominator, and the Original Hunger that went. Even if they fell into a trap and perished, Hastur could still guide their avatars into the Primordial Barrier.
During the struggle between the ancient Sun God and the Eternal Blazing Sun for the authority of the sun, Hastur not only guided the attacks of the Supernova Dominator but also several attacks from the Original Hunger, successfully shattering the conjured divine kingdom of the True Creator and capturing Ouroboros.
After securing victory, Hastur sent Will there to seize the two Sequence 1 characteristics of the giant serpent from Ouroboros.
Now, Will was only one uniqueness away from becoming a god, and that time was fast approaching.
All that remained was to wait for the Fool, the beacon of destiny, to give the revelation of fate.
On the other hand, in the Battle of Backlund, Amon, with the conjured Adam, did not capture Pales, resulting in a draw.
Overall, Adam and the True Creator gained a slight advantage, successfully reclaiming the authority of the Eternal Blazing Sun, bringing them one step closer to becoming the ancient Sun God again.
However, Hastur also gained a portion of the sun's authority, and it was not insignificant.
...
In the northern ice sea of the Feysac Empire, the black holy mountain had been mostly shattered, collapsing into the ice sea, with only the top of a cross protruding from the water.
Ouroboros, the Angel of Destiny who once guarded this place, had now completely disappeared, his fate ending here.
The ancient Sun God descended upon this place, quietly observing for a while before his body trembled and split into two distinct figures: the True Creator and Adam.
"Such fragile humanity will become your weakness. Let me take the lead from now on," Adam said calmly.
The True Creator did not respond, merely walking towards the collapsed black holy mountain, righting the tilted cross and restoring it to its former state.
Adam stood silently by, watching the True Creator's actions.
The black holy mountain, with the giant cross atop it, still stood, empty and desolate, with only the cold wind howling.
The True Creator transformed into a black shadowy veil, enveloping the entire black holy mountain, then sank into the sea with his divine kingdom, disappearing from sight.
"Is Ouroboros really that important to you?" Adam whispered, glancing up at the starry sky with a gentle smile before leaving.
The more important something is, the sooner it needs to be discarded.
...
In Backlund, Leonard, who had narrowly escaped death, leaned against the wall of his home, his body slightly hunched, gasping for breath.
It had been too perilous; he didn't even know how he had survived.
"Old man, when did your condition recover to this extent? Even Amon suffered a loss?"
"This is called strategy," Pales said in a light and joyful tone. "I chose to stay within you, knowing that Amon would come to Backlund sooner or later. If I didn't prepare in advance, wouldn't I be serving myself up to Amon?"
"Fortunately, with the help of the Stars, making friends with Hastur was truly worth it."
"I've always told you that fools have their blessings. Your good fortune is still ahead."
Leonard chuckled, then realized and cursed, "You're the fool!"
"Heh, is life more important or being a fool?"
"..."
Leonard didn't want to continue this argument. He staggered to the washroom to freshen up, but suddenly felt the room darken.
Startled, he almost thought Amon had come again. With Pales's reminder, he looked outside.
The sky was unusually dark!
At this time of day, it shouldn't be this dim, even if it wasn't sunny.
He walked to the window, opened it, and looked up.
The sky wasn't filled with dark clouds, nor did it look like a storm was coming, yet it was incredibly dark.
"Is Backlund's smog getting worse?" Leonard speculated.
"Smog? You can forget about thinking with that brain of yours."
"Old man, then what do you think is the reason? It can't be that our fight with Amon affected the weather, right?"
"Our fight? You sure like to take credit," Pales mocked before saying seriously, "If I haven't sensed wrong, the sun has fallen."
"The sun has fallen?" Leonard frowned, looking carefully at the sky again. "Isn't the sun still hanging in the sky?"
"I'm talking about the Eternal Blazing Sun."
"What!"
Leonard was shocked, almost losing his balance. He held onto the window sill for support, his voice trembling, "The god worshipped by the Eternal Blazing Sun Church?"
"Yes, besides Him, the fall of no other god would cause such a phenomenon."
"...Terrifying!" Leonard's eyes were filled with horror.
A god, the high and mighty Eternal Blazing Sun, as dazzling as the sun itself, worshipped by countless people of the Intis Republic, had fallen.
"Yes, truly terrifying," Pales sighed as well.
If not for Leonard's friendship with Hastur, and the enmity between the Stars and Amon, he would have been caught by Amon last time.
"Work hard... or rather, enjoy life," Pales said before falling silent.
The phenomenon of darkness was even more pronounced in the Intis Republic. Though it was daytime, it felt like night, cold and dark.
The chill seemed to crawl from the depths of the heart, making the whole body shiver uncontrollably.
This was an unprecedented phenomenon, not even seen in the depths of winter.
It was unnatural and unscientific.
Especially for the devout believers of the Eternal Blazing Sun, they felt a sorrow from the depths of their souls, spreading and growing, bringing them to tears.
They wept for this day without light, for the god who could no longer respond to their prayers.
