The guidance of the rainbow has not completely disappeared.
Even though Mozo had already stepped into the church that had long since turned into ruins, the rainbow still paved the way forward, and at the end of the church, it opened an underground corridor for Mozo to where the goddess was.
Before stepping completely into the underground corridor, Mozo couldn't help but touch the moonlight in front of him that seemed real.
Then Mozo was surprised to find that he actually encountered "Moonlight"? !
No, this doesn't seem to be moonlight, but some deeper and colder existence.
After taking a look at the sky full of stars emitting endless brilliance above my head.
Mozo walked into the underground corridor thoughtfully.
At the end of the corridor, Mozo finally saw his goddess—Ilúvatar Vala!
She sat upright on a rock, bathed in the starlight, and fell asleep peacefully with the starry sky in her arms.
Ilúvatar, sensing Mozo's arrival, finally raised his head slowly at this moment.
Then, he gave a reassuring, warm smile to the king who had finally returned.
Mozo walked up to Ilúvatar, knelt on one knee, took Ilúvatar's hand, and placed the gift he had prepared on Ilúvatar's hand - a wilted apple.
"All the stars belong together, I'm here to pick you up, princess!"
373 The Republic and the Original (4k)
Looking at the apple that his king had placed in his hand as a gift, Ilúvatar was stunned for a moment before he smiled in disbelief and said:
"How, how, how did you find this?"
As she spoke, Ilúvatar couldn't stop playing with the apple in her hand.
She did not ask for gifts or anything like that, because having her Aragorn return to her was already a luxurious gift that she could not even imagine.
But if there is, she will also be very happy, because even a goddess is a girl who longs to be loved.
One thing that must be understood is that in front of one's king, even the noble goddess of victory Ilúvatar is a girl first and a goddess second.
However, Ilúvatar never expected that the gift her king prepared for her would be this.
On February 4, the 33rd year of the Koran calendar, the grand floor heating installation plan in the Hazel area was in full swing.
Even though she was a goddess, she was dragged by Aragorn to work as a "coolie". Although no one knew that Muxelle was Ilúvatar at that time.
However, it is really rare to let a demigod dig a hole.
Then, on this day, Ilúvatar, who had been digging tunnels for a whole day, received a thank-you gift from a little girl, which was the wilted apple that Mozo placed in her hand today.
To the goddess Victory, this is a "sacrifice" that is not too much to be considered blasphemous.
But for Ilúvatar, the apple that the little girl herself was reluctant to eat was a precious gift that she was also reluctant to eat.
Later, she performed a complex spell to keep the apple forever, but even so, she did not expect to see it again after experiencing such a change.
Mozo also looked at the apple in Ilúvatar's hand and smiled:
"I noticed this apple when I was looking through your diary, so I brought it here. I think this is the most appropriate gift for the moment."
After that, Mozo said to Ilúvatar:
"And the little girl, her name was Dani Sabir. She grew up healthy and married a young tailor from the next village. They had two daughters, and they and their children lived an ordinary but stable and happy life."
"Although the time that followed became increasingly difficult due to our absence, the good news is that the descendants of this little girl have continued to this day, and in such a dark era, they have maintained a positive attitude. They even gave me a long farewell when I came back."
It is not known whether it was fate or simple coincidence, but the car dealership manager who received Mozo and drove for him in that remote town was the descendant of this little girl.
Mozo's words made the goddess' expression even gentler.
"Really? That's great."
Then the goddess stretched out her finger and gently stroked the wilted apple into two.
Ilúvatar raised the apple and smiled at Mozo, saying:
"I think I'm finally ready to eat it! So can I invite you to join me, my king?"
Mozo picked up half of the apple and nodded with a smile:
"It would be an honor, my princess!"
To be honest, this wilted apple doesn't taste good.
But both sides enjoy it!
Because this is the most precious gift from a little girl, and it also brings the joy of reunion between the two parties after a long separation.
After both parties finished eating the apples in their hands, the goddess Ilúvatar reached out and took the core from Mozo's hand.
After temporarily handing the sky full of stars in her arms to her queen, the goddess Ilúvatar personally dug a small hole in the ground and planted the fruit core.
Then he bit his fingertip and dripped a drop of divine blood on the soil as nutrients for the growth of the seeds.
"I hope it can grow into a beautiful fruit tree and remain here to commemorate our reunion."
Mozo just smiled and expressed his support for the goddess' idea. At the same time, Mozo was looking at the stars in his arms.
After the goddess finished her work, Mozo handed it to her and asked:
"Could this be the Level 0 seal from the Star Path?"
Ilúvatar immediately took it and replied:
"Yes, it's the starry sky, but I modified it, so it looks like this."
After hearing this, Mozo immediately asked the question he had already guessed:
"Did you really create an ideal country?"
After saying this, Mozo's eyes stared straight at the starry sky in the goddess' arms.
This is undoubtedly a different thing from the starry sky above their heads, but the two are so similar.
The goddess also lowered her head and stroked the starry sky in her arms and said:
"After Leia took over my divine body, I was not completely passive. As my soul was divided, it was naturally difficult for me to fight against Leia, whose soul was intact and still a true god."
"But just like she can partially apply my abilities, I can also borrow a little from hers. And I also have the starry sky to blur her cognition."
"That, combined with some of my initial research, led to this."
The goddess Ilúvatar immediately smiled and held up the stars in her hand in front of Mozo as if showing off:
"I am very sure that the nameless land where all living beings rest in peace as rumored really exists, and I also understand its general structure, although the gap in rank and ability prevents me from being as great as our father."
"But I also created this similar ideal country!"
Having said this, Ilúvatar, who had just been in high spirits, put down the starry sky in his hand helplessly.
"But they are just similar defective products."
"What do you mean?"
Mozo walked over to the goddess and gently held her shoulders.
In response, Ilúvatar smiled softly and leaned obediently on Mozo's shoulder.
She held the starry sky in her arms and said to Mozo:
"I speculate that our father probably used at least three methods to build a stable nameless land as a resting place for all living beings."
"I am now certain that the two paths of stars and souls are two of the three, but I still cannot figure out what the remaining one is."
"But it's also because I still can't figure out what the remaining path is, so no matter how hard I try, I can only create an ideal country with flaws."
"But just as I'm so lucky that you can come back to me, even if it's an incomplete utopia, it has met my expectations."
Ilúvatar said this and after Mozo waved his hand lightly, he relied on his victory churches spread throughout the Bitter Cold Land to construct an information network connecting the entire Bitter Cold Land.
"My followers are spread across the land, and so is my church. Leia may think she has been suppressing me, and continues to destroy the only thing I have left."
"To some extent, Leia did succeed, but her success was not complete. Because I can't bypass her to interfere with my believers."
"But, as you said, all the stars are their home!"
As Ilúvatar continued to speak, the information network map she showed to Mozo kept changing.
A circular starry sky appeared above the webway, and countless silk threads were continuously connected from the church below.
"I made a small use of the original iron law. After death, the soul will spontaneously go to the place where the stars gather above our heads. But what if I have the unique starry sky that is the path to the stars?"
Mozo also said the following words:
"Have you taken in all the souls of the victims on this land?"
"It's not good to have a sequence that's too high. The soul trajectories of high-sequence beings seem to be supported by another underlying logic. However, this is enough. High-sequence beings are rare, and even fewer will die on this land."
"I can confidently say that the evils that Leia indulged in by using my identity and my divine body have all been redeemed within the stars in my hands!"
"Everything will be just as I promised my believers in the scriptures. The good ones will go to the ideal country I promised them after death, while the sinners will become the cornerstone of the ideal country and suffer from being trampled on forever!"
As she spoke, Ilúvatar couldn't help but raise up the starry sky in her arms.
"I used to just do this mechanically because I didn't want to lose to Leia, the enemy who killed my king. But now, I am really glad and thankful."
Ilúvatar put down the starry sky in his arms, looked seriously into Mozo's eyes and continued:
"Because it has become my salvation. Otherwise, I really don't know how I should face you."
Sanchez wondered if he would ever find out that the second of his three predictions about the bitter cold land had been misinterpreted by him again... .
The gift of fate has already been marked with a bonus in secret!
Is it heaven or hell
The choice is all yours!
You foolish man, the answer has already been written in the scriptures, why do you always ignore everything
This prophecy is not directed at him personally, but at the entire bitter and cold land!
Mozo exclaimed and looked at Ilúvatar in front of him with complicated eyes. After a long time, Mozo stroked Ilúvatar's messy hair and said:
"This is also my salvation. My goddess."
If the goddess had not made an effort, if Leia had not occupied the goddess' body, then Mozo would not know how to make a choice between his ideals and feelings.
Therefore, this is also his salvation!
Ilúvatar simply smiled gently in response.
After saying this, Mozo looked at the starry sky that Ilúvatar had been holding and said:
“So what’s the flaw?”
"It's just a transit station. Although I can delay the departure of souls, they will eventually go to the real stars. This cannot be prevented, only delayed."
"But fortunately, I was able to make use of Leia's ability a little bit! I tried my best to make those who wanted to stay stay, and those who wanted to leave leave. And thus achieved a dynamic balance."
"Can you tell me more details?"
Mozo became more and more curious.
Ilúvatar did not keep anyone in suspense and said directly:
"Leia can call back the souls of those who died in battle, and can also make the souls of believers forever strong, so I kept expelling and calling back the souls of the villains! In this way, I "made up" the "number" of people who should have left at the appointed time!"
"I thought this was a temporary solution, because as the number of expulsions and recalls increased, no matter how hard I tried to solidify the souls of the villains, they would slowly leave completely. But I don't know how to say it, there are too many villains in this land."
"I have been raising the standards, but there is still a sad situation where supply exceeds demand. And the rest of the people will choose to leave because they have stayed here too long."
"I didn't stop them either, because no one knows what the resting place is like. Maybe it will be a boring and cold world, or maybe it will be a paradise that is better than the utopia I can offer them. So I didn't stop them from leaving."
"All I can do is to return to these poor people what they deserved during their lifetime and respect their final choice!"
After listening to this, Mozo nodded seriously and said:
"There is nothing wrong with your choice, my princess. You have done the best you could."
But after that, Mozo asked another question:
"You said that in the end, the souls in the ideal country will still be unable to stop going to the resting place, but the question is, isn't the uniqueness of the stars and souls in your hands?"
The goddess fell into a brief silence at this question.
Then she was extremely serious and used every method she could think of to block out everything around them.
