Chương 253: Chapter 254: Continuous Stabs in the Heart
Lynn's words were not just simple stabs to the heart but directly pierced through the hearts, livers, and lungs of both Ouroboros and Will.
After all, among these two angels on the Wheel of Fortune Pathway, Ouroboros had become a King of Angels by the end of the Second Epoch but hadn't progressed further since then. After so many years, he only possessed two Sequence 1 Characteristics as a King of Angels.
Will had obtained the Uniqueness of the Wheel of Fortune Pathway early on, but he couldn't accommodate it. Over the years, the Uniqueness hadn't brought him any help and to some extent, it only became a burden.
It could be said that if either of these two had even half the luck of the future God of Steam and Machinery, they wouldn't be in such a state.
"Can I ask who you are talking about?" Will pressed his aching chest and looked at Lynn seriously.
As an angel on the Wheel of Fortune Pathway, Will couldn't tolerate knowing nothing about such a lucky existence.
Moreover, Will was confused because, in his memory, none of the existing Sequence 0 Beyonders matched Lynn's description.
"Oh, this..." Lynn smiled at Will's expectant gaze and slowly said, "You can guess!"
Will: ...
"Forget it, you don't want to say it anyway." Will turned his head, puffing his cheeks in displeasure like a child.
It could be said that no child at this banquet was more dedicated than Will.
"Just kidding," Lynn laughed, then casually tugged on Will's hair, making him tear up before letting go and coughing lightly. "But I really don't plan to tell you because it's unnecessary."
"The lucky guy won't be as lucky this time, so be confident, you two angels on the Wheel of Fortune Pathway are still the (Un)luckiest."
Lynn's tone remained gentle, as if he was talking about something trivial. However, Will broke out in a cold sweat.
It wasn't Will's fault. Lynn's words contained too obvious an implication, almost explicitly stating, "I'm going to get rid of that overly lucky guy." How could this not make Will feel creepy?
"Hahaha..." Lynn suddenly laughed, deliberately using those words to tease Will. He lightly patted Will's head. "Just kidding. I'm not that ruthless. I don't plan to kill him."
"I just want to replace him and become the Paragon."
Hearing this, Will didn't know whether to continue feeling creeped out or to sigh in relief. But remembering what Lynn had said before, Will had a guess. He couldn't help but ask, "What you just said hasn't happened yet, right?"
"Yes, these are things that will happen in the future. Well, the original future," Lynn nodded, not hiding anything. He suddenly showed a mysterious expression and asked, "Will, do you want to know what your future is like?"
Will was tempted. Although he couldn't be sure if what Lynn said was true, there seemed to be no harm in listening.
So Will asked, "Can you really tell me what my future is like?"
Ouroboros also looked at Lynn, his eyes full of curiosity.
He wasn't interested in many things, but Will, being his old rival, was one of them he is interested in.
Facing the curious gazes of the two Snakes of Mercury, Lynn calmly waved them closer. When the two got near, he lowered his voice and shared like a secret, "Will, you're the most unlucky guy, until the apocalypse arrives, you won't successfully accumulate the Uniqueness of the Wheel of Fortune Pathway."
Will was visibly stunned. He then looked at Lynn in disbelief, "So in the end, did this stupid snake win?"
"No, at least not in the scope of my knowledge," Lynn shook his head honestly, then sympathetically said to the two, "You two are equally unlucky. A thousand years from now, when the apocalypse comes, you'll still be in the same state. It really makes one wonder if your time flows differently from others."
Will suddenly felt a bit down.
If Lynn's earlier example was just a simple stab in the heart, his current words made Will doubt if he was indeed an angel on the Wheel of Fortune Pathway.
As the Snake of Mercury, at least he shouldn't be this unlucky, right?
For over a thousand years, hadn't he encountered that crucial opportunity of fate?
That's right, the opportunity of fate. As the pathway that governs luck, the apotheosis ritual of the Wheel of Fortune Pathway is very simple: find the correct opportunity in the flow of fate and directly consume the potion to ascend to Sequence 0. accumulating the Uniqueness is a simplified version of the apotheosis ritual.
In other words, a truly lucky Snake of Mercury might find the right opportunity right after ascending to Sequence 1 and then directly become a god.
For instance, Lynn once suspected that if the future God of Steam and Machinery were on the Wheel of Fortune Pathway, he might find the right opportunity right after digesting the Sequence 2 potion and ascend directly.
However, the unlucky ones could refer to Will, vividly demonstrating what it means to be unlucky on the Wheel of Fortune Pathway. Even with the Uniqueness in hand, he couldn't accumulate it.
Ouroboros was also stunned by Lynn's words, but he wasn't particularly concerned about being the same after a thousand years. Instead, he seriously asked, "Am I still following my Lord at that time?"
Indeed, that's you!
At this moment, Will and Lynn's thoughts coincided.
"Can't you have a bit more ambition?" Will said, not knowing how to describe his feelings.
As Ouroboros' rival and the stronger one, it was good for Will that he wasn't ambitious. But it was like seriously competing against a top student, only to find out that the top student was a laid-back slacker. It made one feel like punching a cotton pillow continuously.
"If fate favors me, I can become fate. If not, I'll accept my fate and meet my end," Ouroboros said slowly and seriously.
Hearing this, both Lynn and Will frowned.
Will almost rolled his eyes and said irritably, "What if fate arranges for you to die? Will you accept that too?"
It wasn't Will's fault for this attitude. Although he often acted based on fate's guidance, he never had the mindset of living strictly by fate's arrangements.
Whether it was fate's guidance, instructions, or so-called favoritism, Will would use them but never allow himself to become fate's puppet.
If everything was according to fate's guidance, why become the Wheel of Fortune? He might as well downgrade to a Sequence 2 and find a true god to follow.
TN: Had some time on my hands, edited the first 50 chapters, fixed some mistakes, and added some scenes.
