Arcanum: Chaos Path

Chapter 483 The Sun God Returns (Part 2)
But this was not the end, because at this moment, Eternal Sun and the others felt something being stripped away from them. The next second, a beam of light was projected from each of them, and those beams of light entered the body of the Sun God.

The aura of the Sun God seemed to change at this moment; a power beyond Sequence 0 gathered within Him, forming part of His resurrection.

Everyone tensed up at that moment, and under their watchful eyes, a dazzling golden light suddenly shone from the sun god, illuminating the entire Forsaken Land and bringing a true sun to this place that rarely saw sunlight.

Just like many, many years ago, when the world was still shrouded in darkness, the sun god born from Chernobyl brought light and heat to the dark world, bringing the sun.

A few seconds or even longer passed, and the light emanating from the sun god gradually dimmed, but it did not disappear, for the entire land abandoned by the gods was still shrouded in light.

And at the moment when the sun god completely stopped shining, He also opened His eyes.

“...Father?” Amon looked into those familiar eyes and couldn’t help but call out.

The sun god was clearly somewhat bewildered, but this bewilderment did not last long. After a few seconds, the bewilderment in his eyes disappeared, replaced by a familiar gentleness.

The sun god looked at Amun, nodded, and seemed to sigh, saying, "It is I, I am here, Amun."

It's hard to say what Amon was feeling at that moment; he clenched his fists, a surge of intense emotion welling up inside him.

Surprisingly, Amon didn't even know what he should do at that moment. Should he give his father a hug? Or...?

Before Amon could come to a conclusion, he felt a shadow fall upon him. It was the Sun God, who had appeared before him without him noticing.

The sun god gave Amon a hug, just like every father who is reunited with his child after a long separation. At this moment, He was no longer the savior, no longer the half-god, but simply a father who had been separated from his child for too long.

No one present uttered a sound; they all watched the scene unfold silently. Even Luo Lin chose not to disturb the father and son.

In any case, genuine family affection is always something to be moved by.

However, the sun god did not hug Amon for long. He quickly released his child, reached out and patted the child's head, and said with emotion, "You've grown up!"

“I’m all grown up now, Father,” Amon said, pursing his lips.

“I know it’s because I’ve been absent for too long. Although the true Creator and Adam are with you, they are not the complete me, and you don’t acknowledge them.” The Sun God sighed again, still somewhat regretful about the deficiencies in Amon’s growth.

What's even more regrettable is that the mischievous kids who were barely acceptable before His passing ultimately went astray after His death.

Fortunately, it has now been corrected.

Thinking of this, the Sun God looked at Roland and said with emotion, "I didn't expect you could actually do it. You truly are the one who brings miracles, Lucifer."

“So trust me a little more, Grisha. I’m probably more trustworthy than you think.” Roland laughed, then, as if remembering something, asked curiously, “What’s your situation now? How’s your self-awareness?”

The Sun God didn't answer immediately, but first organized his thoughts before saying, "My current self-awareness is indeed my complete self, but I also possess the memories of the true Creator and Adam, as well as some of their emotions, though these don't dominate me. At the same time, I also have my own memories, and memories related to you." Roland nodded, then asked, "And what about God? How is He now?"

"God still exists, but he is much weaker than I was back then. Now I can suppress Him..." The Sun God did not intend to hide anything. God's will would not disappear because of His resurrection, but as time goes by, such ancient consciousness will naturally become weaker and weaker.

Just as in the Fourth Era, once the Gou family ascended to the position of Lord of Mystery, they would immediately be replaced by the Celestial Venerable, but in the Fifth Era, those who ascended could contend with the Celestial Venerable.

Therefore, after being resurrected in this era, the will of God within the Sun God was naturally weakened to the extreme.

After listening to Him, Rowling asked, "So, are you now confident that you can ascend to God?"

The sun god paused for a second, then gave a gentle smile and said, "I think we can give it a try..."

His gaze swept over everyone present, lingering on Medici and the others for a moment before looking into the distance, towards the direction of the North and South continents.

"I will win, for this world, for all those I care about, for those who have already fought for freedom and equality." The Sun God looked at Roland and said firmly:
“They have already achieved a wonderful life, and I will not let outsiders disrupt it. They deserve to live happily and continue to be happy.”

“That’s just like you.” Roland wasn’t surprised, but he still couldn’t help but feel a little emotional. He looked at the Sun God in front of him and laughed again, saying, “Then go ahead and do it. Don’t worry, although it’s a bit difficult, theoretically speaking, even if you lose, I can bail you out again.”

Rowling did not offer to help the Sun God fight against God, because that would be a long process. Even if Rowling temporarily used the power of fiction to help the Sun God suppress God, it would not be a long-term solution.

As for directly erasing God's existence, the amount of fictional power required is far too vast, which Rowling does not possess at least for now, and it's hard to say what the future holds.

Therefore, the matter of becoming God ultimately depends on the sun god himself.

"Thank you." The Sun God looked at Roland and said sincerely. He paused, then suddenly smiled and said earnestly:

“But I will still be wary of you. You are good, but you are also crazy. I believe in your humanity, but I don’t believe in the madness that is dragging you down.”

"That's why I will always be wary of you."

"...There's nothing wrong with that, after all, I don't really believe in that crazy idea that's pulling me down!" After a second of silence, Roland smiled and continued:
"But before that, let us resurrect the true Creator and Adam. This will probably require your cooperation. At least cut out two shells first. We don't need to worry about the souls; I can resurrect them directly on their bodies."

The Sun God naturally had no objection to this; He didn't mind the existence of multiple versions of Him in the world at the same time, after all, the Sun God himself was a master of splitting things up.

So after their cooperation, the true creator and Adam quickly returned to this world, only one regressed to the level of the angel king, and the other simply became Sequence 1.

This is because the resurrection of the Sun God is centered on Sequence 0 of the audience pathway, since this is what fits the definition of a perfect resurrection.

Therefore, the true creator can also be the King of Angels with two Sequence 1 characteristics, while Adam can only be a Sequence 1. This is all thanks to the special nature of the audience sequence, which allows them to imagine a Sequence 1 characteristic.
