They all call me an Outer God.

"Woo..."

The snow-white spider seemed to sense Atlas's negative emotions, and stretched out its hairy forepaws to rub against his cheek, as if comforting its lover.

If none of them can awaken, then they will never be able to meet.

"Sodris was a proud king. Since ancient times, there have been no weak cowards among the gods who have held the power of the sun. But all signs indicate that He is no longer the Sodris we know."

"Perhaps when He wakes up again, He will agree with the original ideas of Gherus. The slumber of the gods and the battle of that time also gave that guy the opportunity to brainwash the sun god in his dreams."

"So you should know what I'm going to say next."

The white spider tilted its head.

Atlach's face gradually revealed a resolute emotion: "We must eradicate the pollution from the Judgment Star in the sun in our dreams before the stars revive, and together we must fight against Gherros, and not let Him awaken."

"If we cannot separate ourselves from the Sun God's corruption, we can only destroy the Sun and use the power of the Sun God's explosion to severely damage or even kill Him."

“In this critical moment, the lives of those humans are no longer of concern. Geheros is an extremist, and the first thing he will do after waking up will definitely be to awaken the primal. At that time, we will be the ones who die.”

"..."

"Alas, Messiah."

"The most tragic thing is that we are powerless against the Star of Judgment, so who can we turn to for help?"

Atlach, carrying the spider, walked aimlessly forward, his bare feet treading across the surface of the Red Moon soil without leaving a trace.

Suddenly, more and more spiders gathered in front of her. They did not look ferocious; in fact, they were furry like rabbits and had large red eyes like jumping spiders. They were completely different from the spiders from the Red Moon that Ria had encountered before.

If Lia were to witness this scene, she would probably secretly criticize the goddess for being pretentious.

"Messiah, what do you mean by this?"

Atlach took a step forward, and the spiders crowded together, eventually transforming into the indistinct phantom of a woman, dressed in pure white, draped in a misty white veil, except for her extremely deep scarlet pupils, and below her eyelids were intricate, interwoven silver four-pointed star patterns.

【Atrak Nakya】

The woman's pale lips slowly opened and closed, as if she were performing a long-unused action.

He walked up to Atlach and reached out to touch his face, but his hand passed right through him.

【Bo gonna hove (the spider I can't let go of)】

【Goys guode hrodled Joh ght (You don't need to worry about anything)】

He revealed the purest smile, like a child, completely different from the image in the hearts of believers.

“Listen to me, Atlak, everything is a dream from the beginning. All the gods were corrupted. When we wake up, we can no longer escape our true, distorted selves as we did in the dream.”

"No god wants to admit that we are no longer who we used to be. Our humanity has vanished, and we can only reminisce about so-called normalcy in our dreams."

We deny confronting our own place in the universe, instead pointing the finger at the origin, believing everything is the origin's fault, and that—since He gave us new life, He shouldn't have cruelly taken it all away.

"But you and I both know that the original one carried too much on his/her back; he/she lost more than just himself/herself..."

He is now like an enormous machine, soulless, fast but emotionless, without thought, forced into a deep slumber.

“Sometimes I wonder, is it the best end if we all go to our deaths together?” Messiah murmured to herself, then looked up to find Atlach behaving very strangely: “Have you also started to agree with Gherros’s ideas and become part of His faction?”

"No, I'm just stating the facts as I see them."

Messiah shook her head: "As a fellow will of a celestial body, I can understand Gherus, but I cannot agree with His methods."

"Why? This isn't like you."

"because……"

Messiah deliberately kept everyone in suspense, only revealing the truth with a smile when she saw Atlach's face growing increasingly grim.

"Because if everyone dies, I won't be able to see you again."

Atlach's eyes widened.

“Atlak, I cherish death, but if it involves you, I would rather forsake death, forsake memes, forsake my principles and become an enemy of the sun god and Gherros—”

"Open a portal to my dreams, Atlach, I will personally negotiate with them."

Atlach: "Are you kidding me? You know perfectly well that's not what I meant."

"The moon god and the sun god are enemies, there's nothing to say about that. Although I am not as devout as Sodris, it wouldn't be difficult for me to harm Him."

“I disagree. I came here to seek your opinion, not to watch you go to your death. In that case, let’s just leave each other as before.”

Eight eyes gradually appeared on Atlach's face: "Pretend I was never here today."

With that, He put down the spider in His hand, turned and left, but after only a few steps, He suddenly felt that His previous words were somewhat cruel.

It was not His intention to hurt Messiah's heart. He was about to turn back and say something more, but as soon as He turned his head, he found countless pale white hands shooting out from the ground and binding her tightly. Then, His own power was rapidly drained away with the contact of those hands.

Even a fool could guess what Mysses was up to: "You want to steal my authority!?"

"This is the only thing I can do."

Myssis's expression was compassionate: "To be honest, you are too weak, Atlas. How could you forget that I am not only the moon goddess, but also the goddess of death?"

“Those who offer sacrifices to me, those who witness my true face, will all die, and I will devour their souls. Your decision to come to me today was a risky one.”

“But, ha ha—” Messiah’s face suddenly broke into a smile, “I will not kill you. I will take over your position after seizing your power, and then I will personally find the consciousness of the sun god after his slumber to settle everything. I must find out whether He is Sodris or Geheros now.”

"As for you, you shall forever slumber in my palace and live a sorrowful life."

Countless pale hands gripped Atlach's body, trying to drag him into the depths of the red moon. Spiders are highly predatory creatures, but when a small spider encounters a spider larger than itself, it can only become prey.

Messiah's moon worms can mimic various shapes; they once had a beautiful legend and a name—

Moon Rabbit.

Goodnight, my dear Atlak, my life, my blood, my soul.

As Messiah watched Atlas being dragged away, she finally turned and disappeared without looking at him again.
