"What a coincidence! my second plan is exactly what you mentioned. I've already started preparing for it. For this, I even organized a grand tea party, inviting numerous gods and angels. Figures like Solomon and Tudor are on my guest list."
In response to Roselle's probing and inquiries, Lynn naturally affirmed and enthusiastically shared the news about the tea party of the gods. "I believe that regarding the faith in the True Creator, they can give me a satisfactory answer."
Hearing this, Roselle was stunned. His eyebrows twitched as he couldn't help but ask, "May I boldly ask, what sequence are you?"
"I'm currently Sequence 2, and my next goal is to become a Demon of Knowledge," Lynn replied without any intention of hiding, smiling as he spoke. "However, I'm a bit special compared to others."
"For example?" Roselle followed up on Lynn's words.
"For example, I once pinned down a Bitch Tre...I mean Mother Tree of Desire, which is an Outer Deity, and pummeled it?" Lynn "modestly" gave an example.
Roselle: ...
Although he had guessed that this guy might be somewhat outrageous, he didn't expect it to be to this extent!
Being fellow survivors of the Great Old Ones, how could the gap be so vast? Was the other side cheating?
"In a sense, indeed!" Lynn nodded earnestly, then sighed, "However, if I could, I would love to get rid of this cheat."
Hearing this, Roselle, who had been somewhat envious, immediately frowned. He seemed to have thought of something and said, "Does it have anything to do with that big shot who just glanced at me?"
"Strictly speaking, He only glanced at the Mother Goddess of Depravity; you were at most affected by the corner of His eye," Lynn corrected Roselle's statement, then continued, "Don't worry, that entity has no interest in this world and won't become a threat here."
This point, Lynn could be sure of.
The reason Lynn so openly talked about the existence of True self was because Roselle, as an affected party, already knew about it. It was just that Roselle wasn't sure of the relationship between that True Self and Lynn. So, under such circumstances, Lynn naturally had to take the initiative to define their relationship.
"Mother Goddess of Depravity..." Roselle was first stunned, then bitterly smiled, "I knew about the Primordial Moon, but I didn't know Her true name was this..."
Then Roselle looked at Lynn and said, "In other words, that big shot isn't a threat to this world, but He's a threat to you, right?"
"Not exactly a threat..." Lynn paused, lowering his eyes and sighing slightly. "The worst outcome is that I might lose myself. Don't worry, if that day comes, I'll make sure to kill those Outer Deities first, to leave you all a peaceful environment." As he finished, Lynn smiled again, a bright and warm smile.
Lynn truly planned to do so. If one day assimilation became irreversible and he was destined to return to his true form, he indeed planned to eliminate the Outer Deities around Earth before losing himself.
Not for any other reason but for those he cared about on Earth.
Roselle's frown deepened. He could tell that the person in front of him wasn't joking, which made him feel somewhat heavy. He couldn't help but sigh, "So, in a way, we're both in the same boat."
After being Corrupted by the Primordial Moon, he also lost himself. If it weren't for this accidental event, even if Lynn found him through the connection, he would only have seen the crazy persona corrupted by the Primordial Moon, while the real him could only stay in the corner of his consciousness, unable to awaken.
"No, at least I gained power, unlike you," Lynn seriously refuted Roselle's words when he heard them.
Roselle: ... That hurts!
"Has anyone ever told you that you're well-suited for the Hunter pathway?" Roselle asked through gritted teeth.
"The last person who told me that was Amon, and then He unfortunately had a bit of an accident. The Worms of Time exploded several times. It's a pity there were no smartphones in the Fourth Epoch, or I would have recorded his screams as an alarm," Lynn shrugged, his smile friendly and warm, though the content of his words was quite terrifying.
Roselle suddenly felt a bit of stomach pain. Although their contact time was short, this brief interaction made Roselle realize a fact – this fellow transmigrator of his was likely a troublemaker, a mischievous kid.
And unfortunately, this mischievous kid had a powerful backer. Although this backer was also a death knell for him, it at least ensured that this mischievous kid had invincible combat power at the current stage, and seemingly the ability to traverse time and space.
Is this reasonable?
Roselle felt it wasn't.
"If you really want to think that way, then I can't help it..." Lynn, seeing through Roselle's thoughts, sighed in an exaggerated manner and said, "It's a pity for Bernadette. Originally, her father had the possibility of seeking help from a fellow transmigrator to fundamentally change the outcome of being corrupted. Now, she can only try to save herself!"
'Is this a threat? It must be a threat!'
Roselle felt his stomach ache more. But as a very mature adult, Roselle's face remained calm, and he said, "Who said it's unreasonable? I think it's very reasonable. Brother Lynn, you clearly are the protagonist type with a cheat, it's perfectly reasonable!"
"Call me the Angel of Secrets. Lynn is not a name that belongs to me," Lynn corrected Roselle with a smile. He wasn't surprised by Roselle's words, but his expression became serious, "I can't travel to the era where you were corrupted for now. My abilities in this area aren't as unrestricted as you imagine. But don't worry, although it's not possible now, it's just a matter of time. I'm very interested in your era and have reasons to go there. When the time comes, if possible, I don't mind changing your corrupted ending."
"...Thank you." Roselle was stunned for a moment, then sincerely expressed his gratitude.
"No need to thank me so early. I'm helping you not just because we're fellow transmigrator, but also because I need an ally," Lynn smiled at Roselle and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, I will replace the God of Steam and Machinery to become a Paragon in the Fourth Epoch. At that time, I hope we can cooperate happily."
