Otaku Witch
Chapter 1992 - 1012: Big Sister’s Loving Punishment (Part 2)
Even if it’s made by the Sage, it’s really not reliable; the young lady is truly a professional at dismantling things.
"Better to wake up the young lady, if she wants to play, I can give her my chessboard to play with afterwards."
Elder Radiant Dragon spoke this way.
Although she has left the Golden Country, she went through proper retirement procedures, so all her assets are still intact, as a wealthy woman in the Golden Country, her war chessboard is not much inferior to Estelle’s.
And just as the three were preparing to shout for her, the Dragon Witch of the Mountain was not pleased instead.
"It’s fine, let her play, it’s okay if she breaks it, after all, I’m the one who suggested this game first, how could I pique someone’s interest and not let them enjoy it fully?"
She said this.
Well, mainly she was an insider before, all of Teacher Guigu’s maneuvers she couldn’t see, now that she’s finally an outsider, she has to watch for a good while, in case she learns a trick or two, wouldn’t she profit greatly.
The other three were waiting for her to say this, hearing Estelle say it, they immediately had no objections, and continued watching the chess game together.
.....
Chessboard World.
Soon, the captured Dragon Swarm were locked inside the long-prepared Trapped Dragon Cage, then escorted by floating warships back to the capital of the Winter Empire, Winter City, for the Ice Empress to handle.
But just a few days later, terrifying Dragon Roars came from Winter City, and then the Dragon Swarm spread their wings and flew away from this floating mega-city, regaining their freedom.
However, strangely, these rescued Great Dragons did not attack the city out of retaliation, but rather left docilely, as if not holding any grudge whatsoever.
Then...
[Mechanical Calendar year 150, Obisth, the new Dragon King of Dragon Island, leads the Dragon Swarm in conversion to the Mechanical Church.]
[Mechanical Calendar year 200, the Underground Demon Clan warmly welcomes the Mechanical Church.]
[Mechanical Calendar year 250, the Angel Clan of Heavenly Island declares the Lord of Machines as the one true god.]
.....
Soon, in Mechanical Calendar year 300.
Dorothy feels the surging Power of Faith within her, at this moment, she feels like she truly ascended to godhood.
After all, with the world unified, all folks’ aspiration, the Goddess of the Moon and Fire at this moment has already become the ruler of the world, the embodiment of human consciousness, the true world protagonist.
And the native consciousness of this world...
Well, in a pitiful world turned into a chessboard, what kind of world consciousness would it have, the hapless thing was erased long ago, its place replaced by those chessboard rules.
However, chessboard rules are rigid, lacking any self-awareness, it’s just a tool program.
Therefore, the Homebody Witch truly isn’t just inflated, she is genuinely invincible across the world.
Just.....
"When I calculate the time, it’s about time to conclude everything."
Dorothy calculated the time, thinking like this in her heart.
Her consciousness quietly attached to the statue in the Iron Temple, then waited.
She didn’t wait long before a noble, dignified figure walked into the temple, then the temple doors closed tightly, in this grand and sacred hall, only one person and one deity confronted each other.
"You’ve arrived."
The divine light of the Moon and Fire ignited on the cold statue, causing the jade-sculpted statue to quickly become lifelike, the descended Goddess spoke to the follower below.
"Yes, I’ve arrived."
Ice Empress Elsa looked up at the statue before her, then nodded, her eyes holding the usual reverence and longing, but with more determination.
And she tightly grasped an ordinary hammer in her hand.
"Then do you still remember the promise we made initially?"
The Goddess asked once more.
"Never forgot."
Elsa firmly nodded, answering this way.
"Then what do you wish to do now?"
The Goddess continued to ask.
"Please..."
The dignified Empress originally wanted to continue answering firmly, but suddenly stopped, falling into silence.
She came today to ask the Goddess to die.
After all, now that everything’s ready, this world shackled for many years shall regain freedom, and all it takes is for her to step forward and smash the statue before her with the hammer.
By then, human’s consciousness will rampage, this fervent faith will break through the old world’s bondage, and with the Holy Hammer in hand, she can guide that rampaging faith, establishing new world rules.
This is a plan set long ago.
After all, to let her own people have good lives, the war must be truly ended.
And to genuinely end the war, the world’s shackles must be cut.
Yes, all of this simply requires the sacrifice of the Goddess.
As for whether this betrays faith, it naturally doesn’t, for Elsa’s faith isn’t in the Goddess, but in her "Genesis." 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
And the core idea of "Genesis" is that there were never any deities or saviors, don’t worship gods, don’t ask others, one’s fate should be controlled by oneself.
Requesting the Goddess to die is actually practicing faith.
Yet, even though Elsa prepared mentally for hundreds of years for this day, when the moment truly arrived, she found the Holy Hammer in her hand so weighty.
Had she really not believed in the Goddess?
Of course she had, it was her original faith, starting when she summoned the Goddess’s descent during the divine ceremony at the age of ten.
She loves the Goddess, more than herself, the Goddess’s will is her everything.
