Chapter 631: Chapter 505 The Princess with Amnesia Has Already Returned Ho_2
“This is a lie,” Lissdia said. “Sister Nina was never a candidate on the Gospel List, she was actually on the List of the Unfavored, and she was my sacrifice.”
“The royal family of Yisu ensured that each princess could beco the First Gospel by having another princess with a high compatibility entered into the List of the Unfavored, forging the forr’s glory by sacrificing the latter’s fate.”
“Sister Nina did indeed live in the Tower previously. Your inability to find her ans that she has already left as one of the Unfavored.”
Ash recalled Liss’ wish to “abolish the List of the Unfavored”—he hadn’t asked much about it at the ti since he too wanted to cancel the list. But if he had asked more questions then, thought further—could he have seen through Liss’ lie, could he have—
“No matter what you do, she would have let co out to save you,” Lissdia said. “Soone has to be sad, and she didn’t want it to be herself.”
Ash tugged at the corners of his mouth, as if he wanted to laugh: “I took care of her so long, accompanied her for such a long ti, oversaw her studies, played gas with her, I was so good to her, and she actually…”
“…just let be sad?”
Lissdia: “Forgive her final act of willfulness.”
“And you?” Ash suddenly asked. “Who are you? Why can you replace Liss on the Gospel List and push aside?”
“I am Lissdia.” She repeated, “I am the true princess cultivated by the royal family of Yisu, the perfect candidate for the First Gospel. The Liss you knew was a sister born during my slumber.”
Ash was stunned, then bitterly smiled: “No wonder, I always said she didn’t seem like a princess… she really wasn’t.”
“She was,” Lissdia said. “The ti she spent with you was the happiest of her life. She might not be Yisu’s princess, but she felt like she was your princess.”
“With all of us running around, displaced and holess, could that really be considered happiness?” Ash looked down at the ground, “She hadn’t grown up, hadn’t gone to school, hadn’t fallen in love, hadn’t made friends her age, hadn’t visited the Void Realm, hadn’t properly walked through Nabistin, hadn’t been to Joy World a second ti, hadn’t—”
Lissdia looked at him, his shoulders trembling, listening to him detailing his future plans for her, then she reached out and gently touched Ash’s head: “You don’t need to punish yourself like this. It’s not your fault.”
Ash was silent for a while, then suddenly asked: “Will Liss truly disappear completely? I an, isn’t there so way… Yes, the Divine Lord’s wish!”
Ash fiercely wiped away the stains on his face, grabbed Lissdia’s arms and said: “You can make a wish with the Divine Lord’s wish, create a new body for Liss. No, simply reject Divine Being possession, or—”
Lissdia shook her head: “The Divine Lord’s wish indeed belongs to the First Gospel, but it requires the Gospel List to be absolutely finalized, and only after I fully beco Lissdia can it be obtained. By then, there will no longer be sorrow, joy, or personal desires in my heart.”
“It’s okay, there is a contract between us!” Ash said: “Just like Hanna can control Yayin to cancel the Gospel, I can control you to make a wish!”
Lissdia still shook her head: “It won’t work.”
“Why not?”
“Because there is no contract between you and ?”
“How is there no contract between us—” Ash began, then realized: “Could it be…”
“You are only bound by a Contract with Liss, and if Liss becos the First Gospel, then indeed, you can control her through the Contract,” Lissdia said. “However, I am the First Gospel, and there is no Contract between you and . Even if I switched to Liss, her personality would prevent her from becoming the First Gospel, and it would revert back to you.”
The Contract between Liss and Ash was effective on its own, not as a mockery of Fate but due to their preditated calculations, aiming to switch personalities at the critical mont to act against the Contract. Yet, back then, no one had expected that this Contract could be spectacularly potent, at which ti single account binding ironically couldn’t bring out the Contract’s effect.
“Then let beco Yayin!” Ash imdiately said. “At that ti, let Liss manipulate to make a wish!”
Lissdia suddenly asked a strange question, “Ash, do you rember the nine lists before the Weaving Festival? Do you think you are the type of person who would throw away your life to save a kingdom?”
Ash paused for a mont, “I can’t manage to sacrifice myself rely for applause from unknown people—especially when I still have soone I want to et.”
Lissdia nodded, “Yes, then why would the Weaving Festival weave a future where you, along with Mr. Harvey and Mr. Bokin, save the future of the Evangelism? Even if this catastrophe was caused by Miss Hanna, and even if you end up with Hanna later, do you feel responsible for rectifying Hanna’s wrongs? And Hanna might not even admit she was wrong.”
“The Weaving Festival has already provided an answer to your anomaly: The one who wants to save the Evangelism isn’t you; it’s Yayin. That ans, even though Hanna has controlled you to disband the Gospel System, the Divine Being still resides within your soul.”
Ash’s heart grew heavier, and Lissdia continued, “Miss Hanna loathes the Gospel deeply. No matter her feelings for you, her primary desire would likely be to destroy, expel, or seal the Divine Being, not rely to casually disband the Gospel System. After all, as long as the Divine Being exists, there’s a possibility for the Gospel to re-erge.”
“Not to ntion she definitely wouldn’t want you to beco a vessel for the Divine Being. If there was even a slight chance, she wouldn’t let you go to save the Gospel with Mr. Harvey and Mr. Bokin.”
“So, Ash, your idea is unattainable. Soone has to beco the First Gospel, which even the wishes of the Divine Lord can’t cancel.”
Ash asked, “What about changing it to making a wish to coexist with the Divine Being? Not needing to eliminate the Divine Being, just asking to spare my self-consciousness?”
Lissdia thought for a mont and surprisingly nodded, “That has a potential for success.”
Ash was overjoyed, “Then——”
“That explains why the Gospel would weave out inappropriate relations between you, Qinna, Nona, Yvalin, and others, and why Mr. Bokin among others would follow you,” Lissdia said. “In the tiline where you beco Yayin, Hanna probably wished for you to coexist with the Divine Being, but ultimately, you rged with Yayin, with Yayin’s will to save the world always prevailing, and your occasional appearances being responsible for those plotlines regarding the Weaving List.”
“So, I wouldn’t do that,” she said. “It’s rely a dead-end path that keeps you struggling to survive.”
“This too wouldn’t work, that too wouldn’t work,” Ash nearly clenched his teeth in frustration, trembling, “Then let ——”
“Don’t you still have soone you want to et?” Lissdia said, “Without Liss, you still have many people who need you; but without you, Liss has no one who needs her. She can bear seeing you sad, can you bear leaving her to live alone?”
“Nicole Lissdia is your na on the List of the Unfavored; Liss is yours,” she smiled. “Take her Fate, and leave this place.”
Ash muttered, “Leave?”
“Yes.”
Lissdia said, “Within eighty-nine minutes, you must leave the Gospel.”
