As for the enmity between the True Creator and the Lord of Storms... Amanises doesn't seem to think it's a big issue.
Although all three gods were involved in the betrayal of the Ancient Sun God, the Eternal Blazing Sun took the lead in the rebellion and has been the most active ever since, drawing about 80-90% of the hatred. The Evernight Goddess believes that the remaining animosity can be resolved through negotiation.
After all, if a fight were to happen, the Lord of Storms would certainly lose to the True Creator's faction, led by Lynn. However, if the Evernight Goddess were to become Lord of Storm's staunch ally, then he might still have a sliver of hope. After all, the Evernight Goddess has many hidden cards to play.
But Amanises and the Lord of Storms aren't close enough to risk everything for each other. Why should she go all out for him?
The Evernight Goddess muses that instead of clashing with the powerful True Creator, it might be better to persuade Leodero. If both sides admit their past mistakes and negotiate compensation, the issue could be resolved.
After all, in this world, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. As long as the Lord of Storms is quick to kneel and humble himself sincerely, the other side probably wouldn't mind letting go of the past grievances.
Lynn was not unaware of Amanises' thoughts, but he didn't care much. Smiling, he said, "I thank you in advance. I'll personally visit Saint Samuel's Cathedral to discuss the matter further with the Evernight Church."
"I'll issue a divine message to ensure they're prepared in advance," the Evernight Goddess responded with a smile.
"As for the second matter I came to discuss with you, it's related to the Pre-Epoch..." Lynn took a sip of his tea, looked at the Evernight Goddess, and said slowly, "You should be aware of the existence of Lynn Sotos..."
"You mean the Lynn Sotos by Klein's side?" the Evernight Goddess asked curiously. "I initially thought he was you, but later realized that he wasn't. He just has some connection to you. I'm curious—who is he exactly?"
Indeed, although Mr Fool already knows Lynn's true identity, Klein, as a cautious friend with secrets of his own, has not reported it to the Church.
Klein had his reasons. He wasn't sure how the Church would react if they knew Lynn's true identity. While the Evernight Goddess seemed to have a good relationship with the Angel of Secrets, Klein remained wary, following the principle of "Don't doubt the authority of Gods, but don't trust their benevolence." He was reluctant to test the waters with the Evernight Goddess, especially considering her history of manipulating his fate.
So, as long as the Church didn't ask, he would pretend to know nothing.
Klein's caution didn't bother Lynn at all. Hearing Amanises' question, he smiled and replied, "No, you're mistaken. He is also me, just my human side."
Amanises was taken aback, clearly realizing something. Hesitantly, she asked, "Did you separate your humanity from your divinity?"
"Just to better resist Him." Lynn smiled faintly. "So far, it's working well."
Amanises looked at Lynn, not questioning his words, and instead asked, "What do you mean by saying the Pre-Epoch is related to your human side?"
"Exactly what it sounds like..." Lynn placed his teacup down and lowered his gaze, his tone filled with a mix of helplessness and melancholy. "You know about my slumber. The reason for that slumber is because of a small accident... He almost awakened within me..."
Yes, Lynn was referring to his True Self almost using him as a vessel to gaze upon the world once again. It was as if He had almost awakened within Lynn's body.
Lynn wasn't one to lie.
Amanises' expression grew serious. As someone who had witnessed the Rose Redemption incident and saw how the Ancient Sun God was forced into self-destruction by the God Almighty awakening within Him, she understood the gravity of such a situation.
At the same time, Amanises suddenly understood why Lynn had fallen into a century-long slumber during the Second Epoch. It was to resist the awakening of the ancient god's will within him.
— It's important to note that while the major figures of the Ancient Sun God's faction were aware of Lynn's role as a human stabilizer during his slumber, Amanises, merely an ally, had not been privy to that secret.
"But it seems like you've resolved that issue now?" Amanises observed Lynn for a few seconds before asking.
"Temporarily, yes..." Lynn nodded, then added, "And thanks to this incident, my human side gained some unexpected abilities."
Lynn didn't keep her in suspense and explained, "That ability is called Time Travel. You could already guess by the name—it allows me to bring others along on travels through different eras."
Amanises was stunned. She looked at Lynn with near disbelief and couldn't help but ask, "Does that mean Lynn Sotos can take me back to the Pre-Epoch?"
The Evernight Goddess was visibly excited. As a "transmigrator" herself, Amanises didn't dislike her current existence, but if given the chance, she wouldn't mind returning to the Pre-Epoch for a visit, even if she didn't intend to stay.
More importantly, if she could return to that time, perhaps she could...
"Yes." Lynn nodded and took another sip of tea.
At that moment, Amanises' grip on her cup tightened, but she quickly regained her composure, asking, "I assume there are some limitations to this ability?"
"There are some restrictions..." Lynn didn't intend to hide anything. While exaggerating is part of business, false advertising wouldn't do in this case.
Especially when dealing with the Evernight Goddess, who is a crafty figure and a schemer. False promises could backfire.
So Lynn explained, "To conduct Time Travel, He needs specific time-space coordinates. But that shouldn't be a concern. transmigrators like us, who had lived through the Pre-Epoch, naturally carry traces of that epoch. Although such information isn't enough for Lynn Sotos to directly access the coordinates, given enough time, he can slowly decipher them."
Amanises visibly relaxed after hearing this and asked, "How long will it take?"
