Chapter 934: Chapter 62: The Answer to the Riddle Chapter 934: Chapter 62: The Answer to the Riddle “What do you mean?”

Facing Elise’s explosive revelation, Link calmly spoke, calmly inquiring.

He seemed not to be surprised in the slightest.

Actually, he was already harboring doubts in his heart and guessing the reasons behind Elise’s statement.

After all, Elise’s special identity as a ‘special guest’ had been unanimously affirmed by the five Saints of the Supreme Council.

The Immortal God Tomorrow Court had accepted this fact.

Elise indeed had passed a series of tests, opened the channel between the two universes, and fulfilled the prophecy made by Nostrodamus before the curtain of silence fell.

Now, Elise suddenly says she doesn’t count as a ‘special guest,’ which must have its reasons.

And this reason was very, very important!

Elise didn’t beat around the bush, letting Link guess wildly; she directly gave a hint, “If the Wizard’s Civilization can have ‘Foreign Guests,’ True Spirits from other civilizations or even other universes, naturally some True Spirits can also drift to other civilizations or even other universes, becoming ‘Foreign Guests’ of other civilizations and universes.”

Link, as if enlightened, tentatively asked, “Do you mean to say that you were originally a wizard of the Wizard’s Civilization who accidentally became a ‘Foreign Guest’ in another universe and then found a way to return to the Wizard’s Civilization?”

“Exactly.”

Elise nodded her head, unconcernedly admitting it as if it were a common trifle, rather than a major matter that both the Immortal God Tomorrow Court and the High Council of the Wizard’s Civilization were investigating with all their might.

As if, returning to the Wizard Civilization Universe from another universe were a trivial and unremarkable matter.

Suppressing the absurdity welling up inside, Link continued to probe, “So, your True Spirit really was the payload within the second beam of light?”

“No.”

Elise denied this point and then said, “The payload within the second beam of light was indeed the ‘Special Ruin World’ recognized by the Supreme Council. Of course, it has now become my Destiny World.”

Upon hearing this, Link fell silent for a moment and then frankly said, “I still don’t quite understand some aspects.”

Elise smiled, “Which aspects? Say it. Whatever I can answer, I will answer today, for you might not find this chance again.”

“The two beams of light, based on the information I’ve received, one beam carried my True Spirit, another carried the Special Ruin World, and the ‘shell’ of the second beam was used by the Celestial Court and the Supreme Council to bind the fate of Celestial Lord Michelle. So where did the ‘shell’ of the first beam go? What was it used for?”

With a calm expression and a somewhat heavy tone, Link voiced the puzzle in his heart.

Umm… or rather, Link had already figured out the answer to this puzzle in his heart, and he was here merely to confirm it with Elise.

Taking a deep breath, Elise met Link’s piercing gaze and replied gravely, “Just as you think, the ‘shell’ that carried your True Spirit was used to bind your fate. However…”

“However, what?”

Link was quite curious about this point.

And intuitively, he sensed that this point was very important.

“However, there was a hiccup.”

Elise’s tone became somewhat strange, tinged with helplessness, anger, and a mix of bitterness and grievances.

Various emotions intermingled, but what ultimately emerged was a sense of loneliness and desolation.

“What kind of hiccup?”

Link took in Elise’s demeanor, but rather than offering comfort, he first rushed to inquire about the core matter.

It’s important to have boundaries in life.

Having married Jasmine and fathered a daughter, he shouldn’t give other female friends excessive concern.

In doing so, he was acting responsibly toward himself, Jasmine, and other female friends.

To tell the truth, under the current circumstances, Elise wasn’t devoid of disappointment, but that was all it was – disappointment.

However, being late was being late.

A friend was a friend.

There was nothing to complain about, just acceptance.

Quickly adjusting her slightly fluctuating emotions, Elise said, “The Will of the Wizard World is an exceptionally special existence. Not to mention in our universe, even among many other universes, it is a uniquely special presence. The reason is not only that it has merged the consciousness of the five Saints and the collective mind of five wizard sects, but there’s also a particularly special aspect.”

Pausing slightly, Elise spoke with extraordinary gravity, “That is, the Wizard’s Civilization didn’t have a long history of development, yet it developed to its peak in a short time, assimilating many civilizations and their World Wills. Just as eating too much can lead to indigestion, so can a World Will.

To help the Wizard World Will assimilate more quickly, the wizards created entities known as ‘Foreign Guests.’
Utilizing the fact that multiple parallel universes are not always parallel, they attracted special True Spirits from other civilizations or even other universes, spawned ‘Foreign Guests,’ and promoted the integration and diverse development of the Wizard’s Civilization, using hardware improvements to stimulate software evolution.

Through this process, the Will of the Wizard World developed bit by bit into its current special form.

It’s not too clear to explain in a few words, but that’s the general idea.”

After listening to Elise’s lengthy discourse, Link wasn’t confused. He grasped the subtext of Elise’s words and directly asked, “So what you mean is, the special form of the Will of the Wizard World intervened in ‘your’ arrangements? And that it did so deliberately?”

Instead of answering, Elise countered with a question, “Do you remember what I once told you about the circumstances under which I was born?”

“I remember.”
