Chapter 882: Chapter 355: A Cycle_2 Chapter 882: Chapter 355: A Cycle_2 At last, what the Prince most wanted was to leave openly with the other person.
Thinking this, Paris took a step forward and spoke gently,
âHelen, hear me out,â
âThereâs nothing in this world that could outweigh your place in my heart, and such a person as you shouldnât stay in this barbaric kingdom.â
âCome with me, no one can tear us apart, just like I said yesterday.â
âThis kingdom canât stop me, my power is far greater than you can imagine.â
ââŠParis, itâs not that I donât want to leave with you, but this place is ultimately a royal city.â
âI do believe you wouldnât lie to me, but itâs still too dangerous, if youâŠâ
âI wonât be harmed!â
...
Moved by her concern for his safety, Paris knew it was completely unnecessary.
Taking a deep breath, the Prince drew his wand, a surge of immense confidence welling up in his chest.
âHelen, Iâm not just comforting you, nor am I being reckless.â
âIn fact, I have already conquered the Death that was destined.â
âEven Destiny canât kill me, it has already been trampled under my feetâHelen, please believe me!â
âIâŠâ
Forcing a smile, watching the slender stick, even though she tried to show trust, Paris could still see Helenâs worries.
Although during the past few days, the Prince had demonstrated the Elder Wandâs miraculous power more than once, it was clear Helen attributed it to Parisâs own strength.
In todayâs Mortal Realm, tales of mighty heroes are not rare.
But to say that just a stick could defeat a kingdom was something people could hardly accept.
Feeling somewhat irritated, but seeing Helen try to persuade him, Paris couldnât feel any anger.
Her arguments were entirely in his interests, and if he hadnât experienced it himself, would he really believe in âconquering Destinyâ and âan all-powerful wandâ?
Putting himself in her shoes, it was only natural that Helen would have doubts.
However, normal as they were, his power was also real.
Thinking this, the Prince made a decision.
âHelen, I know you still donât believe me, but thatâs okay, I will make you believe.â
âAll lies in this world will shatter in the face of truth, I will show you with ironclad truth that there is nothing I cannot share with you, and every word I say is indeed true.â
Speaking solemnly, his left hand unconsciously stroked the wand as if it were his own finger joints; Paris finally extended his right hand.
He reversed the Elder Wand, handing the handle to her.
And Helen was clearly stunned for a moment, then she took the wand Paris handed her.
âThis isâŠâ
âHold it, this is the most powerful weapon in the world, just before now, even a Deity fell into a slumber because of it.â
âThis is my divine object, the proof of my victory over DestinyâHelen, it would be meaningless for ordinary people to have it, but you are different.â
âThis is my personal gift to you, and in the whole Mortal Realm, you are the only one who can âsubdueâ me.â
With a slight smile, Paris mentioned what he perceived as a âfutureâ Helen would likely never know of.
And being âdefeatedâ by Helen didnât seem wrong to the Prince.
âCome, feel its power, the grace gained after conquering Destiny.â
âAs long as you wish, it can turn imagination into reality.â
âThis is the most powerful, and most perfect witchcraft.â
âWe donât need to learn anything, just holding it, we can achieve whatever we desire.â
Watching Helen transition from being bewildered to curious, then to fascination and excitement, Paris stepped back, turning his gaze toward the window.
At that moment, Sparta was cloudless, the sky a deep blue.
The Prince pointed to the sky, not turning back, and said,
âCome, try out your power.â
âWave the wand, and you can summon rain and clouds, tear down walls.â
âThen⊠okay,â
A soft voice came from behind, and the Prince couldnât help but smile.
That was Helen, as always, gentle and perfectâŠ
Thinking like this, for some reason, Paris felt his gaze seemed slightly blurred.
From light to dark, everything in his field of vision turned into dark tones, eventually succumbing to darkness.
The Prince wanted to pat his head, but his thoughts were becoming increasingly sluggish.
It could have been a day, or perhaps just a moment.
At some point, Paris felt himself plunging into darkness.
Beyond that, he felt nothing else.
Thudâ
Withdrawing his right hand, Lachesis calmly watched the fallen Prince.
Behind him, a black wound was clearly visible.
If the Prince had any consciousness at that moment, he would likely be surprised to find that the wound on his body was exactly like the one he had inflicted on Atropos.
Both in position and size, not differing by a hair.
âThis is the response Destiny gives you, Humans,â
âSince you did what should not have been done, the effects given to us, we will return them all.â
Somewhere in the void, the backlash of Destiny fell once more.
Though this was an equivalent response, initially it was the three Goddesses who had failed to maintain the fixed Destiny.
Though ultimately, it wasnât caused by the three Goddesses who were newly born, the world itself still showed no sympathy towards them.
However, feeling the backlash was somewhat less than expected, Lachesis couldnât help but feel fortunate about her choice of candidate.
In the rightful track of Destiny, Pallas died because of Helen, and now he had died because of Helen again.
Though the cause and results were not quite the same, it still spared her some trouble.
Now what needed to be done was to find the real mastermind behind the scenes.
âLet me seeâŠâ
Holding the Elder Wand, using Paris as a conduit, Lachesis began to seek out the true mastermind.
As ridiculous as this Prince was, he couldnât possibly have crafted such a thing; someone else must have been behind it all.
âThis isâŠâ
âAn Athenian?â
After a long time, it seemed she finally found the answer, but the results were quite unexpected.
Was this human really the trigger for all this? But how could he?
Not understanding and somewhat hesitant,
Lachesis knew that either she had not found the right target, or that the person actually had some hidden extraordinary attribute.
Perhaps she should have someone test him, but for the Fates, the answers obtained from Destiny itself should never be told to those who shouldnât know anything about all this.
If this action was meant to steer the person onto the path of Destiny, then it could be barely permissible.
But no matter how one looked at it, having a Deity test a Human was absolutely unrelated.
âSighâŠâ
âBe careful and take it step by step.â
With a gentle wave of the hand holding the Elder Wand, script appeared on a scarf, transforming into a small bird that flew northward.
Regarding her discovery, Lachesis did not intend to keep her sister in the dark.
In case something also happened to herself, she couldnât let her sister start from scratch⊠However, coming back to it, this so-called wand was indeed very useful.
The Power of Destiny mixed with many other elements, eventually the power of Destiny, which originally couldnât directly intervene in the world, greatly enhanced the other powers in a clever way.
Vaguely, it was as if a world also couldnât exist without Destiny, when the power of Destiny came into existence, the matter and Spirituality built on the Void also achieved some kind of intersection and Sublimation.
Unfortunately, she ultimately couldnât keep using it because, in reality, Helen was the rightful user of the Elder Wand, not Lachesis.
Even as a Goddess, she had no power to change this.
Gently shaking her head, it was just a moment before Lachesis was no longer regretful.
If she could solve the culprit behind Atroposâ disappearance, then similar things to this wand might be obtained a second time.
But if she couldnât resolve it, then there would be no future.
In the end, as long as she was cautious, it was hard for her to defeat her opponent using someone elseâs weapon.
So in such a situation, whether she could use this wand or not didnât matter anymore.
