"Just like Luvia told me at the beginning, the requirement for the final gate to appear is that all the chosen ones appear, and the surviving individuals become the thirteenth ring. It is not easy to kill us. From the information I have obtained, once we pass the ceremony and obtain the identity, then fate will favor us. This does not mean that we cannot die, but in most cases we will have good luck."
Iluna then introduced.
“This is truly an enviable ability.”
Xia De praised quietly, saying that if he could also be favored by fate, then life would be much easier.
"why are you laughing?"
A familiar laugh came to his ears, but Shade's question was not answered.
"What if a candidate dies before becoming the chosen one? Wouldn't it be impossible to achieve the requirement that all 'thirteen chosen ones' appear?"
Luvia asked again. The female fortune teller with short brown hair was particularly excited at this time. This was a rare opportunity to get more information in a long time.
Iluna shook her head.
"No, when one candidate dies, another candidate will appear. This is not a killing succession, but there is more than one candidate."
"oh?"
Xia De looked at her in surprise:
"Is there anyone else who has your ability?"
"No, actually this can be explained by analogy with the order of 'inheritance'. My order of inheritance is the highest, so I have the power that is closer to the true chosen one. And as long as I am alive, other candidates will never be able to obtain the status of 'balance' no matter what."
Iluna said, taking a sip from the teacup. Shade understood:
"Then if the official chosen person dies, can the candidate with the corresponding status be re-elected..."
"No, there is only one official chosen person for each Ancient God in the Sixth Era. If I succeed in becoming the chosen one of balance, all other candidates for the corresponding balance will lose their qualifications."
"That's pretty much what I thought. If other candidates can inherit after Iluna's death, then The Whispering Poems will not be an epic of the Sixth Age, but the fuse of the all-out war among the ring wizards of the Sixth Age."
Luvia sighed, and Iluna nodded and continued to explain:
"As for the news about the door, it's actually nothing. The appearance of the door should actually be considered a large-scale ceremony. I don't know what the opening of the door means."
She pointed to her head:
"But what is certain is that the opening of the door will bring us power and will also bring about great changes to the material world. There is no answer to whether the old gods will revive or whether the era will change. However, all the chosen ones will have to make a decision to change the world after that. It is not that each person makes a decision, but that they make an important decision together. I still don't know what the specific decision is."
Although the information Iluna gave was still very vague, it could be judged from this that what Luvia had originally told the two about the Whispering Poems was actually all correct. Moreover, even trying to win over the chosen ones as much as possible was the right choice.
But you have to know that these things have only been confirmed by the first chosen person so far. It is unknown whether Luvia got the information through divination or other more secretive means.
"Is that all?"
The female fortune teller asked again. The seventeen-year-old girl frowned and recalled, moving her body on the sofa in Shade's house to make herself more comfortable:
"The other scattered information is mostly related to power... Oh, I almost forgot, there is one more thing. I can sense a space that is shrouded in white fog."
"Um?"
Xia De was shocked, and Luvia was also stunned. The last time Xia De told her about the basement space, she knew about the "space maze" and "time corridor", and even heard Xia De talk about the "creation delivery room".
“Is this the mysterious space left behind by the ancient god of balance, the upside-down judge?”
"How do you know?"
Now it was Iluna's turn to be surprised.
"I'll take you to the basement later. I've also experienced some accidents during the week you were away."
Xia De stretched his head slightly and spoke faster:
"These are not important for now. Have you entered the space covered by white fog? What is its specific function? Where is the entrance? Do you need a special item as a key, or a specific spell?"
"Why do I feel like you know more than I do?"
Iluna muttered something quietly, and then said:
"That special space is called the 'Inquisitor's Court'."
"court?"
Xia De said suspiciously, but considering that the "Time Corridor" and "Space Maze" actually have nothing to do with the corridor and the maze, the so-called "court" should not refer to a specific court.
"To enter that space, a specific spell is required. May the power of balance bless me who holds the scales. In addition, the holy emblem of the ancient god is also required. It is not a holy emblem made casually, but a holy emblem with real power."
The Time Key is suspected to be the body of the Ancient God - the Father of the Infinite Tree, and entering the Space Maze requires a strange statue of the Ancient God - the Original Rift, so it is understandable that the holy emblem is needed this time.
"Do we still have to look for the holy emblem of that ancient god? This won't be easy."
Shade frowned, and Iluna pointed at herself:
"Others need a holy symbol to enter, but I don't. I just need to recite the spell."
"We can slowly search for the holy emblem, but what is its purpose?"
The brown-haired female fortune teller asked again, and Iluna remembered that she hadn't finished her sentence. She smiled apologetically:
"The court is where you are judged. I tried it once. To enter the court, you have to pass through a white fog door. Behind the door is a strange space surrounded by thick white fog. No matter how you move in the white fog, you will always be in the white fog. But as long as you kneel on one knee, some stone platforms will appear around you, forming a place similar to a court in the fog. On the platform at the front where the judge should be, there is a dark golden scale. Adding weights to the right end of the scale can change yourself."
"What weight?"
"Everything of mine."
Iluna frowned slightly:
"Body, soul, strength, property, experience, memory, achievements, etc. As long as it belongs to you, it can be used as a weight. Once the weight is given on the right end, you can adjust yourself on the left end. You can't change the past, but you can affect the present and the future, make yourself stronger, increase your luck in the future, let you meet someone you would never have met before, or get something..."
The seventeen-year-old girl glanced at Shade:
"But the more you want, the more you lose. Only when both ends of the scale are completely balanced can this change become a reality."
