The more they oppose, the more it shows that I am doing the right thing-Chapter 596 - 322 The Youth Without Masks, Welcome to the Era of Chaos

"Your Majesty Merlin, you are late."

Cersei looked toward the far end of the field, watching row after row of heads tossed into the air and then smash back to the ground, blood splashing like raindrops. Her expression remained undisturbed, as if it weren't her entire family being decimated, but simply turned her head back with a slight frown to watch Merlin.

"It's well beyond the agreed time," she said slowly, "The more we delay, the more likely we are to be exposed. Did you encounter an enemy?"

According to the original plan, Merlin should have acted before dawn, just as the Royal Family entered the shadow passage, yet now, day had fully broken, and the nobles and members of the Knight Order had all emerged from the shadow passage, nearly out of Farol's radiative range.

"An unexpected delay occurred," Merlin sighed helplessly, his purely white pupils still holding hints of dread and fear as he gently shook his head, "A very serious delay."

"So serious that I almost couldn't make it," his expression solidified.

Seeing Magic God Merlin's demeanor, surprisingly, it was Cersei who was taken aback — her expression when looking upon her apparently doomed family hadn't been as vivid. After all, as the God of Law and Farol's most powerful magician, what kind of mysterious and sly being could instill such fear in him?

Was he truly invincible, or could it be the enemy came from the heavens, perhaps one of the Outer Gods or a demon?

"What kind of terrible demon..." Cersei frowned, "could have detained you?"

Merlin took a deep breath, and after a moment, spoke heavily, "It was the overtime demon."

"..." Cersei fell silent.

"Damn that An Su!" Merlin's anger flared at the mention of the matter, "He used thirty-one cycles of overtime on me!"

Cersei began to understand, if it was An Su, it wasn't so surprising.

"You used An Su Moningsta to bring about the Era of Chaos," Cersei shook her head, "As such, a little extra work shouldn't warrant complaints."

"What are you talking about?" Merlin tilted his head, displaying an innocent smile, "I can't understand you."

"Then I'll switch to a language you can understand—"

Cersei returned Magic God Merlin's innocent smile, "The first anomaly in the stars occurred after the Deacon advancement exam that night. Before the star anomaly, the Artificial Nether World almost fell onto Farol by mistake, which led to the first chaos in the modern world — and that Nether World was created by you; the first mistake in the Nether World was also deliberately made by you — allowing the Azure Sorceress to awaken her self-consciousness. Of course, your public reason was 'to add a little difficulty to the exam'."

"And An Su lived up to your expectations by completely occupying that world with mistakes—The first time, you took advantage of An Su and his chaotic and evil nature."

"Don't talk nonsense," Merlin chuckled, shaking his head, "That was the work of an intern."

That was actually true.

He had drawn lots to pass the buck, and this time, an intern from the Magic Association had won the draw.

"The second great chaos that caused the stars to shift was on the night of the blessing ceremony, caused by the First Prince's death and the Child of the Curse crowning himself. The First Prince was killed by An Su because he attacked Luojia Fast, and An Su was able to crown himself thanks to Luojia Fast. And the hidden veil of Luojia Fast, was given to her by you."

"The second time, you took advantage of Luojia Fast, manipulating her feelings for An Su."

"You're still talking nonsense," Merlin shook his head again, "That young lady was in the dark, caught up in a love affair, that's none of your business. I was just a matchmaker."

And that was also true.

Recalling the matter,

"The third descent into chaos, that is, now," Cersei observed Merlin calmly, "The previous two major upheavals were enough for the Milton family and the nobles to temporarily evacuate from the Imperial Capital. They would pass through the shadow passage, a route only known to the Royal Family — and for you, that was the best opportunity."

Cersei Milton's golden eyes watched Merlin with not a ripple of emotion,

"And this time, you've taken advantage of me."

Merlin scratched his head, laughing, "What did I use you for? Did I take advantage of your desire 'to be like the whole family'?"

"That's also true," Cersei nodded earnestly, "I want to be like the whole family."

So socially adept, sister. Even An Su doesn't dare be the whole family, yet you dare. In comparison, An Su is really a wretch; he dares only be a xylophone.

"Ha, you're really interesting, girl."

Merlin's smile widened, covering his mouth to chuckle, his purely white eyes filled only with mirth, "If you wanted to be like the whole family, you shouldn't have conspired with me. There are many ways to be like a family—"

"Such as converting and joining the Celestial Church, and eventually switching to designing Artificial Worlds."

He nodded, "I've just come up with a new design for the whole family. How about this: break a complete Artificial Nether World into one large piece and several small fragments, release them separately, call the large piece the base world, and the subsequent fragments the expansion worlds. That way, one Artificial World could apply for the budget of several worlds."

"That's a good idea, but there's room for improvement," Cersei said with a smile, "Alternatively, disassemble them into various fragments, randomly put them into abandoned Nether Worlds, and have the saints spend Gold Coins or devotion points to draw the remaining fragments; only by collecting all the world fragments can they assemble a complete world."
