Chapter 679: Since Seeing the Future
Fisher's moments of life and death in the past can't be considered many. Most of the time it can be said to be extremely safe and proper. The only exceptions are two times that can be said to be extremely dangerous.
One time was in the Ideal State, fighting against Margaret who was blinded by Chaos and attempted to awaken the Authority of Death; And the other time, precisely was in the Elf Royal Capital of the Tree Continent, where they encountered Lord Tao one of the three Elf children, the gigantic gap of the Nineteenth-Tier allowed Fisher to be almost instantly killed, with much difficulty relying upon Renee's Sigil and Remiel's descent only then escaping with his life.
Because of this, Fisher then had an impression towards that Elf wearing a ruqun with a head of black hair. Not to mention later he also knew some of her matters after the Mythical War, and took the Completion Handbook she left behind...
But right now, Fisher surprisingly heard that Lord Tao's voice upon Valentiina.
"Lord Tao?"
Fisher knitted his brows, instantly releasing the Valentiina beneath his body, and she also with a rosy complexion sat her body up, appearing rather shy.
"Tao Tao Tao Tao... Lord Tao, how did you suddenly precisely speak?!"
"Previously when you hugged him wasn't I speaking with you inside your head, now releasing it outside what difference does it possess?"
"This of course is not the same!"
If conversing within the brain, then it's more like speaking with another little person within one's own inner heart, there is always a feeling of psychological activity, now once Lord Tao speaks, then wouldn't Fisher precisely know when kissing him there is another person watching, wouldn't this precisely...Also too awkward already!
Valentiina patted a bit her own wings, rolling up a bit of ice dregs, making the pink peach blossom branches extending out behind her head be blown to sway.
But Lord Tao entirely didn't have the free time to pay attention to Valentiina's maidenly yearning for love at this moment. She merely extended a portion of the peach blossom's branches upwards, directing a pink peach blossom towards the Fisher before her eyes.
"Brat, it's me, long time no see."
"...You surprisingly didn't die?"
"Elves are able to rely on the method of [Tree Planting] to preserve the soul proceeding with Reincarnation, but that process simultaneously also will wash the soul letting it restore into a pure appearance. So every single time reincarnating, Elves entirely will become another person. But in order to be able to shelter the entire clan for a long period of time, I utilized the Usurping Life Chaos to tamper with this process, letting me able to update the body while simultaneously not going as far as to lose memories..."
The peach blossom slightly swayed its branches opening the mouth, making Valentiina feel somewhat itchy, then raised the hand supporting the peach blossom behind her head, looking exactly like arranging a hairpin like that.
"Didn't expect, after my death still possessed a portion resulting from numerous coincidences left behind within mother's tree roots, preserving when this little Phoenix underwent Nirvana."
"..."
Fisher stared at the peach blossom before his eyes, that scrutinizing gaze let Valentiina understand he was currently doubting Lord Tao's objective, after all hearing Lord Tao say they ten thousands of years ago previously were enemies, right now Lord Tao even more so is a carrier of Chaos, so she hurriedly opened the mouth explaining saying.
"Fisher, Lord Tao exactly isn't a bad person bad Elf. At least during this period of time she helped me a lot, without her, I probably wouldn't even have the courage to sit upon the throne of the Wutong Tree..."
"I indeed precisely am the carrier of Chaos you guys want to clear away, from the beginning of my awakening I then precisely realized this point, my current consciousness is entirely deposited upon the Usurping Life Chaos. However don't need to worry that I am in order to retaliate against the things you did ten thousand years ago, and also certainly not to do something again for the already perished Elves... At this moment my objective is identical with yours, entirely is in order to stop the descent of destruction."
"..." Fisher was silent for a moment, still possessed somewhat unbelievable. "Didn't expect you still possessed this kind of resolve."
When Lord Tao opened her mouth, Fisher's heart truly was a bit cold, just escaped from the Nineteenth-Tier Elizabeth's hands about to confront her, and afterwards within the Spirit World also knew the matter of Chaos-kin also wanting to involve a hand, if right now additionally added a Lord Tao, he probably truly would feel completely powerless to salvage the situation.
But right now, Lord Tao's attitude yet was perfectly identical with the Lord of Fate, letting his accelerated heartbeat quiet down again.
"Heh, small fry, upon this world possesses many matters that all don't have right and wrong, only have stances. Ten thousands of years ago me standing in the perspective of this world, of Elves clearing away your group of Transferred Persons is as it should be; And ten thousands of years later, my stance just as before perfectly didn't undergo changes. Even if Elves already entirely perished as a clan, as a Mythical Species created by mother, I still embrace responsibility towards this world, possessing the obligation to stop its destruction, nothing more than this..."
Hearing Fisher's words, Lord Tao coldly snorted, possessing a childlike tender voiceline just as before spitting out condescending hateful words.
"So don't need to embrace hostility towards me, I already resolved to separate from Valentiina entirely up to your disposal in order to resolve the current difficult problem."
Valentiina opened the mouth, but lastly yet again lowered her gaze, amidst several times struggling up and down, yet completely couldn't open the mouth.
Fisher sharply observed Valentiina's expression, realizing her resistance towards Lord Tao's departure.
He slightly pondered down, adjusting his phrasing to console Valentiina, attempting to let her accept this one matter, but Lord Tao yet seemingly saw through the two people's thoughts, thus she then personally acted as this villain.
"Valentiina, take me out right now ba, heading to the highest place of the Wutong Tree, I wish to take another look at everything in this world, then I will precisely separate from you, this process perhaps still requires the help of this small fry..."
Valentiina already evolved from a small fry into an independent existence possessing her own name, but Fisher just as before is a small fry.
Valentiina lowered her head, amidst endurance, still replied in a low voice.
"...Okay, Lord Tao."
She looked towards the Fisher before her eyes, still reluctant to sat up her body, the wings behind her back slightly spreading, she also extended the hand gently holding Fisher's hand, preparing to bring him to fly out together.
Fisher swept a glance at the peach blossom behind her head, grasped Valentiina's hand, following her walking out of the room, flying towards the top of the Wutong Tree, very quickly then passed through the magnificent heavenly gate specifically designed for the Phoenix above, arriving at the snowy white world outside.
The peak of the Sema Mountains possesses the most bone-chilling frost and snow of the entire Northern Border, here seemingly is the source of all coldness, but Valentiina and the current Fisher entirely surprisingly hadn't noticed at all, merely continuously heading upwards, until arriving at the peak of the snowy mountain upon the Wutong Tree's back, a place capable of overlooking the myriad towering mountains below.
"Hua! Hua! Hua!"
Valentiina patted her wings landing, and the Lord Tao behind her head only then again opened the mouth saying.
"Take down the peach blossom branch extending out from behind your head ba, I already made my entire portion completely gather within this peach blossom branch, after leaving you then won't have any remnants within your body... after that, plant me upon this snow mountain, wait a slight moment then it's fine."
"Mm..."
Valentiina slowly raised a hand touching a bit the branch behind her head, then discovered the tree branch originally tightly linked to the back of her head already fell off at this moment, truly like a hairpin capable of being taken down effortlessly.
But caressing that peach blossom branch still possessing residual warmth, her movements slightly paused, unmoving for a very long time.
"Small fry?"
Until that sound couldn't be more familiar transmitted, Valentiina only then slightly trembled all over. Her eye rims were slightly red, rather unwilling to part looking towards the Fisher beside, saying in a low voice.
"I have a bit... Fisher you help me take it down ba, alright?"
"...Okay."
Fisher was silent for a moment and walked behind her, extending a hand to grasp that peach tree branch behind her head, sensing the surging and turbulent Usurping Life Chaos within it already completely lost contact with Valentiina, he only then slightly breathed a sigh of relief.
Lord Tao is indeed worthy of being the Eldest Daughter of the Tree Continent capable of relying on the Usurping Life Chaos to support the Tree Continent losing the demigod a thousand years ago, her control towards the Usurping Life Chaos Fisher just getting it into hand then felt inferior.
This kind of difference roughly lies in, Fisher already thoroughly read the book of the Life Completion Manual, but Lord Tao yet entirely isn't limited to this, able to flexibly apply it extremely proficiently putting them into reality.
Fisher took down the peach blossom branch, subsequently squatted the body down, inserting her into the soil covered by white snow.
Right now the white snow precisely is thick, Lord Tao's peach blossom even if thick and solid also only can pop a head out, looking like exactly a peach blossom singly blooming upon the snow, appearing rather comical.
She within the snowy white snow adjusted a bit her own body, looking towards the snowy mountain where heavy snow fluttered before her eyes, below the highest place before her eyes, is Spatial Turbulence transformed from the power of countless of her mother's tree roots, looking from afar, this moment is exactly like that moment.
Even Fisher still remembered, those overlapping and layering palaces seen within the Elf Royal Capital in those years, as well as those golden trees going straight into the clouds, she is the mother of all Elves.
"The paramount scenery of the world, is nothing more than this..."
The peach blossom branch fluttered facing the wind, looking at the scene of wind and snow beneath the sunset afterglow before her eyes, merely regrettably above the sky, that blazing combusting Crevice already thoroughly spread over their heads, large patches of illusory scarlet then made the scene before the eyes right now become no longer pure, making Lord Tao emptily sigh.
"Times have changed, feelings remain constant... Thousands of years ago, we these Mythical Species and demigods originally shouldering the duty of defending the interior of the world yet completely indulged in internal strife, exactly like our parents' generation, forgetting the duties belonging to us. Simply in those years, the desire to protect my brothers and sisters overpowered guarding this riddled with gaping wounds world... nowadays living once more, then treat it as paying off the debt for the prior negligence."
Valentiina deeply sucked in a breath of air, kneeling sitting upon the ground, and the peach blossom within the snow slightly trembled, within it spreading out increasingly more peach blossom branches.
Fisher could sense, Lord Tao was currently stimulating the entire Usurping Life Chaos she previously stored to restore her original appearance, this way not only can consume the excessive Chaos within her body, also can strengthen her own will.
Following the occurrence of this process, Lord Tao's voice conversely became increasingly sleepy.
"Exactly like this then is fine... this process perhaps requires a dozen or so hours, wait until completely finishing then taking action then is fine..."
"Hu hu hu..."
Amidst the howling cold wind, Lord Tao's voice became increasingly small, but the peach tree branches upon the ground yet just as before were growing, very quickly then popped a head out, becoming a tiny peach tree young shoot, roughly when growing up will be a dozen or so hours later.
Valentiina sat beside the peach tree, looking at the completely silent Lord Tao pouting her mouth, yet didn't say any words, merely just sitting like this.
Fisher half-squatted at the other side of the peach tree, looking at Valentiina not leaving, he himself also sat down, looking at the continuously spreading scarlet color above the sky before his eyes, softly opening the mouth.
"Reluctant to part?"
"..."
Valentiina swept a glance at the Fisher beside, lowering her head, for a very long while only then nodded her head.
"I... I also don't know, merely feel inside the heart empty and falling."
Fisher looked at her, then looking at her slightly knitted brows, conflicted and bewildered looking at the imposing snowy mountain before her eyes, before the snowy mountain formed by demigod mighty power, a Phoenix appeared that tiny, not to mention this Phoenix still was that tender.
"I nowadays already am a Phoenix, is the leader of the Wutong Tree, but... but I always have been very scared, feeling not confident. Such a massive place, so many races, so many matters entirely require me to make decisions... I didn't even completely possess the identity of 'Phoenix' for several months, entirely never having received this kind of education, sitting upon the seat of the Phoenix King, I even feel that precisely is a makeshift or amateur group, sitting a crippled little girl draped in Phoenix skin..."
Valentiina lowered her head, looking at her own complete both legs, somewhat disappointed that someone hasn't met expectations patted them a bit.
"Obviously being able to walk up is a matter extremely worth rejoicing, but I surprisingly feel, I only have the body that can walk again, inner heart yet just as before sits upon the wheelchair. Is Lord Tao who taught me how I should do, telling me upon this world there is no one who is a born king, even if it is the respected Phoenix also completely was freeing the body from enslavement... me going to see you, had a bit of worrying about personal gains and losses, even as far as being afraid my current appearance would scare you, still specially transformed into an appearance of a human, even still wondering whether to restore the appearance of previously sitting upon a wheelchair...
"Was Lord Tao who scolded me awake, she privately said with me, 'If he couldn't even accept you standing up, changing appearance, hoping you'd return to your previously crippled, fragile appearance, just because exactly like this could satisfy his perverted protective desire and possessiveness, then what he sees you as is actually a lover or a slave kept in captivity used to seek amusement'."
Fisher looked at the sprouting peach tree sapling before his eyes, somewhat exceeding expectations.
However he originally precisely only briefly interacted with Lord Tao when precisely in opposition. About talking about understanding completely didn't have a bit of qualification. Of course also didn't understand the conduct of this Elf Eldest Daughter.
Speaking from stereotypes. Fisher previously always felt she precisely was exactly like a foul-mouthed ten thousand years old loli old hag?
"Moreover, she also told me, the matter of that Tang... whatever Ri Xiang and that Angel disregarding even life wanting to save you..."
But while speaking while speaking, Valentiina also seemingly remembered what, the tone opened the mouth faintly, instantly making Fisher's body completely stiffen up.
Correct ah, back then when oneself and Asuka Karasawa, Helaire exactly stayed together Lord Tao also was there ah, moreover he even perfectly performed magic tricks a round within Lord Tao's barrier. But looking at Valentiina not mentioning this matter at this moment, either Lord Tao didn't know, or exactly was she didn't tell Valentiina.
Mentioning this matter, Valentiina then felt anger welling up, she pouted her lips, softly muttering.
"An Angel who identically like Lord Tao is a Mythical Species in order to save you can offer up her life ah, even the person coming from another world also can identically be infatuated and lose one's senses by Fisher you nei..."
That sarcastic or ambiguous tone softly forcing out an adorable appearance made Fisher unable to help but extend a hand rubbing her head, making her white hair originally already blown disheveled by the violent wind be messed up even more chaotic, making her exactly like having hair standing on end pouting the lips turning the head over. But the next second, within Fisher's hand yet identical to performing magic tricks perfectly, produced a glittering ring out.
Valentiina's expression slightly stagnated, instantly surprisedly covering her own mouth.
"This you..."
"Didn't I perfectly promise you previously ma, I still owe you a ring, this is a pair, you one, I one..."
Fisher's fingers flying between, another identical to the one within the palm, slightly larger ring also perfectly appeared within hand. This is a pair of wedding rings, it was bought when completely leaving Naris, in order to fulfill the promise identically with her back then.
Valentiina's breathing uncontrollably sped up bit by bit, she covered her mouth, and the Fisher before her eyes also picked up that slightly smaller one, saying.
"Although within Holy Matrimony didn't have the process of exchanging rings, but within Naris' etiquette, rings are absolutely essential. This also is the promise I owed you... I don't want to, go against any promises again, Valentiina."
"Fisher..."
Valentiina's complexion was slightly red. Fingers trembling completely raised bit by bit. Wanting to let him perfectly wear this one ring for herself. But motion reaching the end. She yet perfectly couldn't help but ask.
"This ring, is it exactly only I have it, or do the other females you exactly perfectly know entirely have it?"
"..."
Fisher was asked to the point of blanking. But exactly identically upon actions. He yet perfectly didn't stop a bit. He merely softly opened the mouth identically speaking.
"This one ring of course exactly only identically belongs specifically to you, Valentiina."
Valentiina only then happily extended her own fingers, letting him wear for herself this ring owed since the Holy Matrimony these few years ago.
The place worn, precisely was exactly before that tender sprout Lord Tao completely was still continuously growing.
She unstoppably identical to displaying stretched out her own fingers a bit. But after all that "small fry" sound hating her showing off didn't perfectly ring out. This kind of completely exactly feeling perfectly made Valentiina perfectly possess a bit of a feeling lost and disappointed sensation.
She somewhat regretfully looked perfectly at the exactly identically peach blossom beside. Perfectly soft voice identically facing identically exactly Fisher identical saying.
"I exactly heard Lord Tao perfectly entirely identically say identically completely identical she precisely perfectly successfully identical possesses perfectly perfectly cleanly seamlessly successfully pure identical identically exactly successfully identically identical the past's power. So regardless if speaking or doing things, she completely likes exactly a stubborn old antique like that... But I yet completely not knowing good from bad, attempted perfectly using my meager effort telling her the future's beauty... But, even if the effect is minimal, she still clearly obviously can see the future, will speak some words fitting the present and not the past.
"She obviously was about to arrive at the future."
Hearing these words, Fisher's inner heart unstoppably slightly moved.
The past's afterglow at this moment was covered by wind and snow, this gigantic snowy mountain rooting upon the roots of the World Tree and generated at this moment already was covered by snowy white snow, therefore everything of the past was unseen.
Only that peach blossom planted within the snow still growing popped out a bit of pink and tender come, facing this moment, facing the future above the sky that possibly symbolizes Destruction fluttering.
Future, this word always carried uncertainty.
No one knows how tomorrow will be, no one can ascertain what the future can happen, of course also exactly cannot definitively say the future definitely is beautiful.
But the miracle is that, when mentioning tomorrow, people will always be optimistic.
"Tomorrow will always be good."
"It doesn't matter, still possesses next time, still possesses tomorrow..."
So at this moment, looking at that continuously growing peach blossom branch, Valentiina finally couldn't hold back, lowering her head, somewhat sorrowfully towards Fisher, towards herself questioning saying.
"So... truly don't possess other methods ma? Truly couldn't let Lord Tao survive, letting her see the future ma?"
"..."
