Chapter 1130: News Storm

Two Sequence 3 demigods were guarding the main door... As expected of

the Giant King's Court. The divine kingdom of an ancient god... The

members of the Tarot Club suddenly felt a similar feeling. As for The

Sun Derrick, he didn't pause as he continued his recount.

To him, he was shocked when he first discovered the two Silver Knights

guarding the main door of the Giant King's Court. However, the series of

events that followed made it seem extremely ordinary, making it

difficult to stir up his emotions.

"...According to what Mr. World shared, we followed a rather hidden path

to the back of the Giant King's Court... The monsters we encountered

were mainly wraiths. They were restrained by the Unshadowed Crucifix...

"After we arrived at the Waning Forest, we tried to explore it, and we

discovered that the remnants of the Giant King's will and the divine

kingdom's powers had formed an evil spirit. It was protecting its

parents' mausoleum..." Derrick skillfully recalled his experiences

during the expedition, and the members of the Tarot Club---Audrey,

Alger, and the others---quickly reined in their thoughts of the Silver

Knight guards and listened attentively.

They were all very interested in the secret hidden in the Waning Forest.

They wanted to know what the ancient god, the Giant King, had tried to

keep from "His" queen and child.

Thinking back to the scene he had seen, Derrick paused for a moment

before saying, "After purging that evil spirit, we came to the mausoleum

of the Giant King's parents. There was a stone stele erected there,

indicating the identity of the tomb's owner. As for the tomb and coffin,

it had long been opened by someone, revealing the corpses inside. They

were the corpses of two humans..."

Corpses of humans? The tomb of the Giant King's parents had corpses of

humans buried in it? Godfather and godmother? No, there wasn't any

religion back then... As a demigod who knew plenty of mysteries, The

Hermit Cattleya's first reaction was that the two corpses had another

identity.

Immediately following that, she recalled what the Queen had mentioned.

It was a question that Emperor Roselle had asked as though he had been

talking to himself when he was alive:

Why did the ancient documents and historical records refer to giants,

elves, vampires as humanoid creatures or anthropoid creatures?

Why didn't they refer humans as giant-like, elf-like, or vampire-like

creatures?

Could it be that all humanoid creatures had descended from humans? The

giants, elves, and vampires were the mutations brought by the Beyonder

characteristics that could eventually become inherited? Cattleya

instantly calmed her emotions as she seriously considered the possible

reasons.

At this moment, she felt that her potion would be digested to a certain

degree once she returned to the real world.

This was because the Sequence 4 of the Mystery Pryer pathway was called

"Mysticologist," and the origins of the giants and humanoid creatures

were without a doubt of extremely great value. They were mysticism

knowledge that most ordinary demigods had no way of knowing!

The Giant King's parents were humans? That must be fake... Alger

immediately suspected that someone had fabricated the scene.

However, on second thought, this act not only required the real remains

to be taken away and replaced with human remains, but one had to prepare

a suitable coffin to make the tomb look like it didn't belong to a

giant. Furthermore, fabricating it was pointless and wouldn't affect

reality too much. Alger felt that no one would be so bored as to do

something like that.

To be able to enter the Giant King's Court and suppress a powerful evil

spirit, the "person" that approached the two graves was at least a

saint, meaning that they had long passed the age of pulling pranks!

Could it be that... the ancestors of all creatures were humans? This

includes the elves? As he had seen too many shocking things at the Tarot

Club, as well as suffer a religious breakdown from the mural on that

primitive island, Alger didn't have overly intense emotions run through

him. He just couldn't help but raise his hand and touch his dark blue

hair.

Mr. Hanged Man connected himself to this matter? The Giant King's

parents are actually humans... From the looks of it, most of the

creation myths are fake. They were all fabricated by future generations.

However, there are also hidden meanings in them... Mr. Moon seems to

find it unacceptable... Mr. World seems to have known about it long

ago... With the help of Placate and other psychological techniques,

Audrey was able to compose herself the fastest, and she instinctively

observed the reactions of the other members.

At that moment, Emlyn was the most restless. His mind was filled with

thoughts of "impossible" and "it's impossible."

If the original ancestor of giants were human, then what about the

Sanguine? Could it be that we were just monsters that had mutated

because of Beyonder characteristics? Impossible. We were clearly created

by the Ancestor. "She" has the authority of "life" and "creation." It's

completely different from the barbaric deities like the Giant King and

Elf King who only knew how to fight! As Emlyn's thoughts churned, he

felt a baffling feeling that his pride was cracking apart.

His intuition, his rationality, and brain told him that The Sun Derrick

didn't have any reason to lie about this matter.

The possibility of other existences fabricating the scene was also very

low. Hence, he subconsciously expelled the giant and elves from the

ranks of humanoid creatures, and he viewed them as a branch of humanity.

Leonard, Fors, and Xio quickly accepted the possibility that The Sun

revealed. To them, regardless of whether the giant ancestor was giant or

human, or even a curly-haired baboon, it was no big deal. At most, it

just meant that many supernatural creatures were a result of Beyonder

characteristics in the bodies of ordinary creatures, but this didn't

cause any meaningful changes to their concept of reality.

The Sun Derrick calmed himself down and continued in the strange

silence, "After leaving the Waning Forest, we entered the Giant King's

Court through the Barren Tunnel...

"...On the way, there were remnant powers of corruption and concealment.

We had to make the correct response in order to pass...

"...That palace contains a mural that possesses powers related to the

cycle of fate. As such, we were affected and transformed into the people

who participated in a gathering. We repeated a very short process, and

this process was the establishment of Rose Redemption..."

At this point, Derrick looked around and saw that all the members had

temporarily jolted out of their previous states. They were extremely

interested in the organization called Rose Redemption.

They all knew that this was an extremely secretive and ancient

organization that followed and believed in the True Creator. It was the

origins of the Aurora Order, and its members were Kings of Angels like

Ouroboros, Medici, and Sasrir.

Derrick retracted his gaze and exhaled silently.

"The two people who convened the Rose Redemption are Dark Angel Sasrir

and Evernight Goddess Amanises..."

Ah? Audrey, Leonard, and Xio began to doubt their ears.

They were all believers of Evernight. They never expected that the

Goddess would be a member of Rose Redemption, and even be one of its

conveners.

This was akin to saying that the Evernight Goddess was a member of the

Tarot Club!

If not for the fact that they knew what kind of person Little Sun

was---knowing that he wouldn't lie---they definitely would've suspected

the truth of this matter. But now, they were left temporarily

speechless. They didn't even dare to think too deeply about it.

Alger subconsciously turned his body to look at The Sun, listening to

his slow and heavy tone.

"The participants included: White Angel Aucuses, Wind Angel Leodero..."

Alger's eyelids twitched. He didn't even dare think.

"...God of Combat Badheil, Earth Mother Omebella..."

Emlyn, who was leaning against the back of the chair, unknowingly sat up

straight. There was only one message echoing in his mind: the Goddess of

Harvest, Giant Queen Omebella...

"God of the Dead Salinger, God of Spiritual Creatures Tolzna..."

The Sun Derrick's voice echoed in the ancient and magnificent palace. It

made Cattleya, Fors, and the other members exchange looks. No one dared

to say a word. It was as though they would suffer from divine punishment

if they learned any deeper.

After Derrick finished speaking, they remained silent. The scene was

strangely quiet.

Finally, Cattleya sighed and said, "Rose Redemption truly is powerful

and terrifying. Before this, I couldn't even imagine that those

existences were members..."

Just as she said that, The World Gehrman Sparrow said with a deep,

hoarse voice, "That was an organization formed to resist the ancient sun

god. Later on, only a few Kings of Angels remained."

Upon hearing their conversation, it was as if Audrey and the other

members had just snapped out of their dreams. All of them subconsciously

cast their gaze to the end of the long, mottled table, at the figure

shrouded in gray fog. It was as though they were waiting for the ruling

of the entity of authority there.

The Fool Klein, who had long expected such a scene, didn't respond

directly. He nodded slightly and sighed.

"The Fallen Creator was born because of this."

It's real... It's real... The Rose Redemption which Mr. Fool hinted back

then actually has such a deeper meaning... What is "His" identity in

ancient times, and what position does "He" take in this matter... All

these thoughts instantly formed a storm that swept through the minds of

the Tarot Club members.

Derrick looked at everyone, and seeing that no one was speaking, he

could only talk about the subsequent exploration:

"...We met the leader of the King's Court's Chasers outside the palace,

Light Culler Murskogan. He said that Dark Angel Sasrir was in a state of

slumber in that palace..."

Compared to the matter regarding Rose Redemption, news of the mysterious

Dark Angel currently in slumber inside the Giant King's palace didn't

stir up the emotions of Leonard, Emlyn, and the other members of the

Tarot Club much. Only some of their curiosities had been satisfied.

Of course, as a Mysticologist, Cattleya only hoped that The Sun could

speak a little more.

"After that, we returned. Mr. Fool has bestowed us with the formula for

the Silver Knight potion." Towards the end of his explanation, Derrick

concluded honestly.

Audrey and the others were still deep in thought over what had just

happened. There was still a fear of being blasphemous, and no one

responded. Only Alger thought for a moment and said, "Since the birth of

the True Creator originated from Rose Redemption, then 'He' isn't

unfamiliar with what happened to the Giant King's Court. Why is it that

Shepherd Elder Lovia was completely unprepared for this?"
