  He knew that weaklings didn’t have the right to complain.

  Since Ambella had already died, Marvin didn’t feel worried about being able to leave.

  He wanted to get more useful information from Lance.

  Such as, since Lance needed to bring Marvin into this world, what “mistake” was it that he wanted to correct?

  Faced with this question, Lance didn’t answer, going silent instead.

  Marvin waited patiently. He knew that anything that could trouble the Wizard God was certainly a very concerning matter. It might be possible that he wouldn’t be able to explain it clearly in a short amount of time, or even at all.

  Of course, if Lance wanted to keep this secret to himself, Marvin wouldn’t press further. This was just a memory, after all.

  “To answer that question, I need to talk about myself.” After a long time, Lance forced a smile and began, “As the God of Creation of Feinan, you might think I am the most powerful person, but in fact, I was originally a successor and a supervisor 1 .”

  “Because of some compelling reasons, I could only grow together with that world. At the genesis of the world, I could only give it blessings to prevent its death.”

  “I did so much for so many years. I repelled the tribes from many outside planes, protected the Plane Will, and helped many natives of the world become stronger. The most well-known example would be the 4th Era’s Wizards, through the Universe Magic Pool.”

  “In that world, I was already omnipotent.”

  “But the more that was so, the more pressure I could feel on my body.”

  “I already knew the ending would be like that, but as it arrived, I felt unwilling to accept it.”

  Lance was clearly beating around the bush. At the same time, his image was becoming somewhat fuzzy and indistinct!

  Marvin was startled.

  Could it be that just these words were enough to create such a huge fluctuation in his memories?

  But Lance didn’t stop. He continued, “I’ve already been thoroughly branded by this world. I also thirst to reach a higher level. Many years ago I caught sight of That World, and I sent many friends there. I have this strength, but the irony is that this power is what is restricting me. I’m trapped in my own cage and I can’t get out.”

  Marvin took a deep breath. “The Universe Magic Pool.”

  Lance laughed, “Not only the Universe Magic Pool.”

  “All of this Universe’s power of Order had been set up by my own hands.”

  “If I wanted to break out of the situation, some changes needed to happen…”

  “Later… Opportunity arrived…”

  “I…”

  “Succeeded…”

  “But… Mistake happened… Shouldn’t… Therefore… You…”

  By this point, Lance’s silhouette was even more illusory.

  His voice also became intermittent.

  Marvin looked at that scene with surprise and loudly yelled, “What is it in the end? What’s the current situation? Did you succeed? Did you fail? Make it clear!”

  He felt depressed.

  The huge secret of the Wizard God had been so close to being revealed.

  Suddenly, Lance’s silhouette completely came apart and burst into pieces.

  Moreover, the space itself also began to melt.

  Marvin could feel a cool power pouring into him, pouring into his mind!

  He seemed to be in complete darkness for a while before he suddenly and instinctively felt like his soul was back his body. He had regained control of his body!

  The next second, he opened his eyes and saw an adorable face swaying in front of him.

  “He woke up!” The Fortune Fairy laughed mischievously as she teased, “I did say that this method was the most effective one.”

  Marvin looked dazedly at the people who were entering the room. After hearing Ding’s call, they had burst into the bedroom.

  Not only was Anna there, but Madeline and a few other reliable people of White River Valley were also present, including Fidel the Necromancer and that crazy nameless Alchemist.

  They were looking at Marvin with concern.

  Marvin forced a smile and looked back at Lorie.

  The strange thing was that this normally lively and energetic girl was now very quiet, looking somewhat shy.

  Her cheeks were red and she looked very embarrassed.

  Marvin decided not to look too much into that.

  He looked at the two sisters and asked, “Did you help me?”

  Jessica frowned, with her Fate Power slowly gathering. “The Dream God’s subordinate?”

  Marvin hesitated before ultimately saying, “I killed her.”

  He couldn’t tell the story about meeting Wizard God Lance in his memories. This would be too shocking of a matter if it got out.

  After making sure that Marvin was safe, everyone relaxed. Marvin rested for a bit and then left his bedroom to eat a meal with everyone in the dining room.

  And in the process, he found out that he had already spent three days lost in his dreams.

  Although nothing huge had happened in Feinan during the three days, lots of more minor events had taken place.

  It was fortunate that Madeline had invited the Sorcerers from Rocky Mountain, or else there might have still been a problem for Marvin to leave his consciousness.

  After all, even though Ambella died, she did set up the Dream Cage.

  As for Lance, he could help Marvin kill Ambella, but since he was also a memory within it, Marvin wasn’t sure how much he could have done to get Marvin out.

  The only thing that made Marvin not know whether he should laugh or cry was that just as he was about to hear the much-anticipated answer, he had been saved by the Fate Sorceresses.

  Everything was fated.

  Without Ambella, Marvin wouldn’t have met Lance. But Marvin also couldn’t blame the Fate Sorceresses. They had been worried about him being stuck in the dream for too long and didn’t want him to end up dying at the hands of the Dream God’s subordinate.

  As for how they managed to wake him up, Marvin was no fool. The first person he saw when he woke up was Lorie, who was right in front of him, so she was obviously the one that did it.

  The form of Jessica’s Fate Power was [Power]. Once activated, it would burst and destroy. If it was used to try to poke into Marvin’s mind, it would surely have just finished him off.

  As for Lorie, her power was [Wisdom]. The cool, refreshing feeling in his consciousness should have been wisdom’s enlightenment.

  It really could rouse someone from their dreams.

  The only thing that seemed odd to Marvin was that the always lively Lorie was now very timid and quiet. And why was Ding looking at him as if she was enjoying some sort of spectacle?

  …

  After lunch was over, Anna and the others returned to their work.

  Jessica claimed that she had something important to discuss with Marvin, so the two went to his study.

  But just as they entered the study, Jessica coldly snorted and her Fate Power suddenly rushed around Marvin!

  Marvin was startled and asked, “What are you doing?”

  Jessica bluntly said, “Two things.”

  “First, the effect of the Underdark’s Winter is more frightening than you expected. Many races from the Underdark left and started attacking the surface. Hope City is the surface’s first line of defense. The pressure is huge, and I suspect that there are some major problems within the Underdark. Some claimed that they saw some aged shadows in the Eternal Frozen Spring…”

  “[Dark Ghosts]!?” Marvin seemed quite worried upon hearing this.

  ‘Were these monsters from the Eternal Frozen Spring from some time further in the past?’ he wondered to himself.

  “You know of them?” Jessica was somewhat surprised, but without waiting for an explanation, she continued, “If you are fine, I hope you can help me.”

  “Kate must guard Hope City, and I am alon
e. I don’t know much about the Underdark. I hope you can take a trip there with me. I know you have a lot of adventuring experience.”

  Marvin straightforwardly agreed to this matter.

  In any case, he had to repay her for coming and helping him regain his consciousness.

  Dark Specters were very frightening beings. It was said that they had been sealed by the Ancient Anzeds in the Eternal Frozen River. But because of the current disaster, the Eternal Frozen Spring expanded and the seal on the Dark Specters apparently weakened.

  Moreover, there was an extremely powerful Artifact in the Eternal Frozen Spring which Marvin had been yearning for.

  It seemed that it was now time to get it.

  …

  “The second thing is that you have to promise me…” Jessica said, her expression becoming quite aggressive, “you’ll take good care of Lorie in the future.”

  Marvin was puzzled.

  He subconsciously nodded, before reacting with, “What do you mean by that? And why are you looking at me like that?”

  When Marvin learnt how he had been awakened by Lorie’s kiss, he froze.

  Marvin had noticed that the girl was attracted to him. Even if Marvin was slow with these kinds of things, he could feel it.

  It was a girl’s admiration toward heroes.

  Originally, Marvin thought that this kind of admiration wouldn’t cause too much trouble. She was still young, after all.

  Among the three Fate Sisters, she was the least powerful.

  But in fact, Marvin felt that Wisdom was a suitable Fate Power for Lorie.

  She was actually a very precocious girl.

  Her feelings toward Marvin had been visible when Marvin first arrived at Hope City.

  When Marvin helped them get rid of Tess, although it greatly helped Hope City at the time, they could have offered other things as rewards instead of Golden Blood.

  The valuable Golden Blood was something the current Marvin who had Divine Source didn’t necessarily need, but it had been invaluable to him at the time.

  As Jessica chillingly recounted the events from back then, Marvin realized that Lorie had decided to give her own portion of Golden Blood to him as the reward, sacrificing herself of her own initiative.

  She had definitely noticed that Marvin needed Golden Blood.

  But for Lorie, doing this would limit her advancement indefinitely.

  Among the Three Fate Sisters, Jessica’s power was already at the 6th Layer and could be considered unrivalled among Legends. Kate wasn’t lacking either, as her Protection Fate Power gave her the strength to protect the city.

  With her Protection, Hope City’s Source of Fire was currently safe, even though they didn’t establish a Sanctuary. The entire Rocky Mountain was still peaceful.

  This was due to Kate.

  But as for Lorie, her strength wasn’t able to keep up with that of her sisters.

  At this time, she only had the strength of a 3rd rank classholder, not even a Legend.

  Although this was related to her age, if she had taken the Golden Blood, she would definitely have become a Half-Legend.

  And this time, in order to save Marvin, she had no other choice but to pour her Fate Power into Marvin’s consciousness.

  Because her Fate Power was relatively low, she wasn’t yet able to project it out of her body. Thus, at Ding’s suggestion, she kissed Marvin despite her embarrassment and used her love as a bridge to try to connect to Marvin’s consciousness.

  And she surprisingly succeeded.

  But for the little girl, the price wasn’t just her first kiss.

  She lost part of her Fate Power!

  At this point, Jessica’s expression grew ever more severe.

  She was a very tough person. She would never let her younger sister be bullied by others.

  Even if that person was Marvin!

  But what made her feel helpless about it was that Lorie had made her own decision, and Marvin had been unconscious at the time.

  She couldn’t protest much about what happened, and thus she could only try to compel Marvin to take care of Lorie.

  Marvin didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

  He subconsciously looked at his own interface and surprisingly found out that his own willpower had increased by 5!

  The young Fate Sorceress’ kiss was more effective than the Witch Queen’s Tear.

  Moreover, under his attributes section, a [Wisdom (Fate Sorceress)] option appeared.

  It seemed like a skill that could be activated. When Marvin used it, he would become extremely clear-headed.

  Immunity to all control-type spells, charm-type spells, and a substantial increase to insight.

  This was a very useful ability!

  One example of a situation where this would be very useful was that if Marvin wanted to cooperate with Devils, with this ability he would be able to more easily notice any loopholes and traps in a contract.

  Moreover, a clear mind was extremely helpful in battle.

  But because of this, Lori’s power fell yet again.

  Although she didn’t lose a rank, she was far from the 4th rank now.

  With all this to think about, Marvin was silent for a long time before he solemnly swore, “Regarding what fate actually throws at us, I can’t guarantee much to you. But you can trust me, I’ll do all I can to protect her and won’t let others harm her.”

  “As for the matter of Golden Blood and Fate Power, I’ll think of a way.”

  Jessica snorted, but she also knew that this was a very special situation, and she couldn’t press Marvin too much.

  She immediately left the study.

  Marvin forced a smile and sat down on his chair.

  “Really… You don’t have to pay attention to her.”

  A sweet voice echoed from behind a bookcase.

  Marvin smiled. He already knew that someone had been hiding there, but he hadn’t pointed it out.

  Jessica must also have been aware.

  Thus, she left quickly after speaking her mind.

  “Thank you,” Marvin said sincerely.

  So far, Lorie had helped him tremendously two times. The first time was his Shapeshift Sorcerer’s breakthrough, gaining Diamond Shape and increasing his strength, paving the way for the following dragon slaying. This time, she helped him come back from the dream space. Marvin was able to stand here now because Lance killed Ambella and because the power of Wisdom was able to nourish and rouse his mind.

  Everything that involved battles in the mind tended to be very frightening. A mere moment of inattention could result in death!

  Like what happened to Ambella. She used Divine Power to enter Marvin’s consciousness, taking huge risks.

  She failed and died.

  If not for Lorie, Marvin could have had trouble getting out of his consciousness!

  “I owe you two huge favors,” he solemnly said.

  The girl behind the bookshelf gently insisted, “It was my choice.”

  Marvin coughed, feeling like the atmosphere was a bit wrong.

  “Because I like you…” she continued.

  This sentence coming from the mouth of a shy little girl caught Marvin unprepared.

  “You are still too young…” Marvin said perfunctorily.

  “I can grow up.” Perhaps it was because she was hiding behind the bookcase, but the little girl became extremely daring. “As a Fate Sorceress, I can speed up my growth. If you’d like it, I can speed it up by ten times!”

  “In a few months, I’ll become as big as my older sister.”

  Marvin suddenly had a headache. “Don’t!”

  “Eh?” Lorie let out a voice of surprise. “You don’t like me growing up…”

  “Then you like the smaller me?”

  “A bit weird… But it’s not impossible…”

/>   Marvin completely collapsed!

  He ran out from the study.

  Facing the little girl’s confession, he could only flee. When he left the study, he noticed Jessica guarding the door. She glared ruthlessly at Marvin.

  Marvin forced a smile and gave her a meaningful look, hinting her to take care of her younger sister.

  In any case, the two sisters were unlikely to stay in White River Valley for a long time, so Marvin decided to just let it be.

  He rushed toward Anna’s workplace.

  “Any recent news?” Marvin asked.

  “Yes, and it’s very important news,” Anna quickly reported. “While you were unconscious, some unforeseen events happened in the North… This is the news Miss Eve sent.”

  She handed a letter to Marvin as she spoke.

  An unforeseen event in the North?

  Marvin froze. He had been unconscious for three days. What could have happened in the North in this amount of time?

  He had helped Daniela stabilize Lavis’ situation. On the other hand, the North’s City-States should be in chaos, and would likely need a very long time to stabilize.

  But that letter was surprisingly not from Daniela, but from Eve.

  It hadn’t even occurred to him that she would send a letter, since after all, there was no real relationship between Marvin and the Valkyrie.

  When dealing with Dark Phoenix, a clash had almost broken out. If not for another enemy appearing, Jessica might have started a fight with Eve.

  But it was said that after returning to the North, she drove away those five servants.

  He didn’t know if that part was true.

  Marvin opened the envelope while Anna calmly watched him.

  The letter arrived yesterday and had been brought by an albatross. It was clearly written on the envelope that the letter had to be opened by Marvin himself and that it was related to something happening in the North.

  She didn’t open the letter when Marvin was unconscious. Although Marvin had a lot of trust in her, she decided to respect the wishes of the sender and wait for him to wake up, despite her curiosity.
