Chapter 925: Chapter 377 Flying Arrow Stopped_2

But it doesn’t matter, she doesn’t need to understand, she just needs to marvel at this extraordinary Wisdom.

Whether human or God, Hermes always appears so dazzling…

“Cough cough…”

With a light cough, she interrupted her own thoughts.

Lachesis admitted that she might think this way partly due to the influence of Godhood.

But regardless, being able to touch upon the Domain of [Time], Hermes is worthy of having his name etched in History—even though without this discovery, he remains an insurmountable figure in the history of Spellcasters.

Sipping tea from her cup, she observed the learned and knowledgeable Great Alchemist before her.

Unlike before, now personally bearing the backlash of fate, Lachesis felt even more influenced by her Godhood.

As Time ticked away, sitting atop the high tower, the two chatted casually.

Until the sun began to set, Hermes finally straightened up his countenance.

Observing Lachesis, who was completely unaware, the Great Alchemist felt a tinge of helplessness.

Till now, he still didn’t know why the Goddess of Fate had suddenly sought him out.

“Lady.”

After pondering for a moment, Hermes still spoke out.

Judging from the current situation, if he doesn’t actively inquire, Lachesis might never get to the point, even if they wait a while longer.

“Speaking of which, I haven’t asked—do you need my help with anything today?”

“Ah?”

Startled for a second, then her expression cleared.

Only at this moment did Lachesis remember what she had come here for.

A bit embarrassed, but the Goddess glanced at the sky and swallowed back the words she was about to say.

It’s already late, better to speak of it tomorrow.

“Mm… Lord Hermes, I indeed have matters in which I require your assistance.”

“However, looking at the time… It’s best we discuss it tomorrow.”

“…”

A bit speechless, but since Lachesis put it that way, Hermes could only nod.

How peculiar… When he first saw the Goddess of Fate, he thought it was because his ‘transmigration’ had been exposed, attracting her investigation.

Unexpectedly at the time, on seeing him, Lachesis wore an expression of surprise, leaving Hermes utterly bemused.

In his memory, The Three Fates from Mount Nysa in the Fantasy World had never shown a pleasant face to anyone.

He has no idea why, when it comes to his ‘transmigrated’ self, their attitude is so positive.

But in any case, Hermes is still not keen on provoking these incessant divine beings.

If there is anything that even the former Thief God himself fears, it would be fate, without a doubt.

Thus, towards Lachesis, Hermes has always treated her courteously and obliged to her requests.

“…In that case, why don’t I arrange a place for you to rest here, lady.”

With a barely conjured smile, Hermes spoke.

He actually hoped for her to decline, but regrettably, Lachesis nodded in acceptance.

“Then I thank you.”

“…”

His expression stiffened briefly, then returned to normal.

Standing up, Hermes gave up resisting.

Well, if it’s just for one night, let it be for one night.

Ever since he received the message that the Goddess of Fate was planning to visit, he should have anticipated headaches to come.

He just hopes that what she wants isn’t overly difficult… But then, what exactly about him has attracted the favor of the Goddess of Fate?

As an unconventional ‘transmigrator,’ with his limited understanding of fate, he should be seen by fate as a disruptor of Order, an intruder.

“Lady, this way please.”

Ever since he knew Lachesis was to visit today, Hermes had camouflaged his tower.

Although he wasn’t sure if it would work, whether his arrangements could block the Goddess of Fate’s perception of the destiny of creatures and even Gods of Stars, this was all he could do.

But then again, his methods probably are somewhat effective.

Otherwise, if she had discovered the destinies’ trajectories of those Gods of Stars, how could he have remained at ease until today.

So, adopting an attitude of ‘what isn’t revealed is undiscovered,’ Hermes led the way.

This Goddess of Fate is certainly a bit odd, but in the end, for him, the various aspects of that Fantasy World are only referential, not absolute truths.

If even the number of Primordial Gods can change, what else could be immutable?

Hence, although Lachesis is very different from the one in his memories, Hermes doesn’t find it too strange.

Perhaps in this world, she is naturally this way; after all, where he originally came from is merely an illusory possibility, while here, is the real existing world.
