"Oh, but why are you saying all this?"

When the goddess of beginnings talked about the final trial, Abigail knew that her identity as the one undergoing the final trial could not be hidden from them, but why did she suddenly bring up the White Yaksha?

“Miss Abigail, I think with your intelligence you must have known your identity long ago.”

"Yes, I do know that I have the spirit level of the final human trial, but I don't want to use it. That thing is dispensable to me."

Abigail made it clear that she wasn't some kind of crazy person who liked to destroy the world. Although she enjoyed excitement and causing trouble, destroying the entire miniature garden would not benefit her at all.

"White Demon once said that you described yourself as a door, so Miss Abigail, could you please lock that door completely?"

"Oh, so this is what you're after."

Abigail suddenly realized, and without thinking, she answered:

"cannot!"

“Miss Abigail, you should know that if they knew your identity, even I wouldn’t be able to stop the gods from attacking you. In the Garden of Bamboo, humanity’s final trial must be overcome unless you can be like Byakuya.”

"No way! Why would I seal myself away like the White Yaksha? That guy has too many worries, always thinking about this and that. If the gods really want to come and punish me, let them come! I'm not afraid of them!"

Seeing Abigail's firm stance, the Goddess of the Beginning sighed heavily.

Just then, the Goddess of the End, who had been sitting silently to the side, stood up.

"Sister, I've said it before, this guy won't compromise, that's why I don't like using such troublesome methods."

“There’s no other way, Miss Abigail. We originally wanted to resolve this peacefully, but it seems that’s not possible now. Let me be frank with you, we absolutely will not allow this door to be opened. If you are unwilling to seal yourself, then we will seal it for you.”

To Abigail's surprise, the two goddesses turned on her in an instant, and in just a moment, Abigail found herself in the spiritual world.

In front of me was a silver door, with a circle encircling it.

"The beginning is also the end, and the end is also the beginning. If you want to break the seal, then break the endless cycle of beginning and end."

When Abigail came to her senses, she found herself back in the same room, but no one was there. Clearly, the two goddesses had left after completing the seal. She tried to open the door and found it was indeed locked. Abigail was at a loss as to how to deal with this endless cycle of beginning and end.

"Damn it, we got tricked! Those two treacherous guys!"

Abigail finally understood. The goddesses of beginning and end had planned this all along; this council of gods was probably just a trap. It was designed to lower Abigail's guard so they could seal her away instantly, leaving her no chance to resist.

I'll turn you two into bastards sooner or later!

But now that things have come to this, Abigail is truly helpless against the seal set up by the two goddesses.

"Let's go back first and see if Homura has any ideas. If Homura can't do anything either, then let Madoka take a look. With Madoka's abilities, she should be able to break this cycle of beginning and end. Ugh... damn it!"

Abigail then left in a huff, found Homura and Shiro, and had Shiro take them back.

"Little Flame, can you break this seal?"

In her own mental space, Abigail pointed to the ring wrapped around the silver door and asked Little Flame a question.

However, after several attempts, Xiaoyan finally shook her head in frustration.

"Everything in the world eventually goes through a cycle. If you want to break this cycle, you must have the power or method to break this rule. Unfortunately, I don't."

Seeing that Xiaoyan was also helpless, Abigail could only put the matter aside for the time being.

"Homura, since we can't do anything about this right now, let's just leave it at that. By the way, we're all ready now, it's time to summon Madoka."

"Is it ready? Then let's get started!"

Upon hearing that she could start summoning Madoka, Homura instantly became excited. She had waited so long; this moment had finally arrived.

"Alright, let's begin."

After saying that, the two left the mental space.

Immediately afterwards, Abigail and Xiaoyan went outside and found Futes in an open space.

At this moment, Futes was playing with a large group of creatures, which all seemed to have come down from the Sky Forest.

Although Abigail didn't mind having these fantastical creatures running around, she had to admit there were just too many of them.

"Abby!!"

Seeing Abigail and the others approaching, Futus reached out her hand and called out loudly.

"Fates, why did you bring so many fantastical creatures down here?"

Arriving before Futes, Abigail asked her.

“These children wanted to come down and play, so I brought them down. Is that not allowed?”

"It's not that it's impossible, but there are just too many of them. It looks too messy. People who don't know better might think we're running a zoo here."

"Oh, I see. I'll bring fewer children down next time."

"Oh, right, Futes, we're planning to use the Sky Forest now. Could you please find us an open space? We need a place without trees."

At this point, the Sky Forest had truly become a place where fantasy could descend, and this place was indispensable if Madoka was to descend completely. Moreover, with this place, not only could many steps be reduced, but the problem of finding a suitable body for Madoka could also be eliminated.

“If there’s no space with trees, let me think of something… Abby, I can only think of one place, but it’s a lake, and the rest of the place is full of trees. If you really need a clearing, I can clear one out for you.”

"No need, the lake is fine. Besides, these trees are all part of you, and I don't want to do anything that would hurt you."

"Actually, it's not as serious as you think. Strictly speaking, these trees are more like hair; although they are part of me, they are insignificant."

"No need, a lake will do. I just need an open space. Whether there is water on it or not is not the point."

"Alright, then follow me."

After saying that, Furt led the two towards the Sky Forest. Behind them, the group of fantasy creatures followed, forming a rather large procession from a distance.

Soon, the three arrived at the only lake in the Sky Forest. It was a fairly large lake, and many fantastical creatures inhabited the area.

"Abby, should I disperse these children?"

"It's alright, there's no need for that. But you have to be prepared for some danger later. You must protect your children."

"Is it dangerous? I understand."

After she finished speaking, although Futes did not make any movement, a soft light began to spread outward from the center of the Voice of the Void. Not only Futes's core body, but also all the trees controlling her body emitted a faint light.

Is this enough?

Bathed in this light, Abigail could feel herself protected, and she assumed the fantastical creatures felt the same way. She nodded.

"That's enough, this level of intensity should be fine."

After speaking, Abigail turned to face Little Flame:

"Xiao Yan, I need you to do something now: isolate the entire Sky Forest from the outside world, allowing entry but not exit!"

"can!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a chaotic barrier enveloped the entire Void Sound, isolating the inside from the outside and allowing entry but not exit.

"Very good, everything is ready. Now there's only one last thing left. Kyubey, are there enough witches?"

"That's enough. Without the guidance of the Law of Cycles, the magical girls in the Little Garden easily become witches. The energy they gain here is much greater than before."

At that moment, Kyubey arrived at the Sky Forest and appeared on Abigail's shoulder.

"But it'll be gone soon."

Abigail said with a hint of schadenfreude.

"That is indeed a pity. Actually, I have a request. If possible, could you please back up my memories? After the universe restarts, I hope to have my current memories."

"Is this really necessary for you? If you have that idea, you might as well look for information about perpetual motion machines."

"There's no need to rush about the perpetual motion machine. When we arrived here, our race came up with a better solution—although we can't solve the problem of increasing entropy in the universe, we can choose another path to continue the life of our species. However, we still need your help with this method."

"Oh, tell me about it."

Abigail asked with some curiosity.

"The universe is not a single universe. Now our race understands that there are countless universes in the endless void. Some universes are on the verge of death, while others have just been reborn. Since we cannot prevent the destruction of a universe, let us abandon the universes we once knew and move on to another new universe."

After listening to Kyubey's words, Abigail had to admit that the method was indeed good, and in a sense, it was the normal path for a civilization to develop. Kyubey and his group's previous attempt to develop against the universe was something only a higher level of civilization could achieve.

Now that Kyubey and the others have found the right path, there's no longer any need to transform the girls into magical girls to collect energy. Abigail suddenly realized this.

"Speaking of which, haven't I unintentionally saved a lot of innocent girls?!"

"But before that, you harmed even more young girls."

"How can you say that? I gave them a chance of hope. Even if it ends in despair, they at least experienced hope. And after today, they will never despair again!"

After saying that, Abigail flew to the center of the lake. She closed her eyes, and the next moment, endless black energy began to gather in Abigail's direction.

Although Abigail rarely uses it, don't forget she's a mind-controlling witch. Her greatest skill is plunging people into despair; at this moment, she is a massive source of despair, possessing the ability to instantly transform an entire region into a living hell.

However, at this moment, Abigail's greatest role is actually to attract witches.

As the first witch entered this space, more and more witches followed. None of these witches were powerful; none of them possessed the world-destroying power to destroy it.

As the number of witches increased, this space was affected by their power, becoming an abstract landscape. On the ground, the fantastical creatures either hid in fear or howled to the sky, but without exception, they were all terrified of these witches.

"If this continues, this place will probably become a place of utter despair."

Kyubey gazed at the countless witches fluttering in the sky and sighed.

Xiao Yan smiled as she looked at the sky.

"It's alright, even utter despair will be transformed into pure hope by that child."

Chapter 320 Encounter

"Why are there so many things with such a chaotic atmosphere today?"

At the Thousand Eyes branch, White Yaksha watched the witch flying overhead and sensed that something seemed amiss.

"Looking in that direction, is it Abigail again?"

"Seriously, what is that guy up to now? He just calmed down for a little while and he's up to something again. What is it this time?"

White Demon was also helpless, but for the time being, the changes did not seem to have any impact, so she didn't pay much attention to it.

............

"Sister, there's a problem with the core of the Little Garden. It seems like the Little Garden is... rebooting."

“I’ve already seen it. We need to find out what’s wrong right now, otherwise the sandbox will definitely be in chaos. In the worst case, that thing might come out! Go find Laplace; he should know where the problem is.”
