Infinite Transmigration Starting from Violet

Marika's beautiful golden eyes stared at Lu Ye: "Because of deception and lies, I abandoned my homeland and my faith to become queen, and married a man I did not love, in order to spread blessings throughout the borderlands, so that all living beings would be bathed in the blessings of the golden tree, and the borderlands would be bathed in glory."

“However, the truth is not so,” Marika said. “One day I realized that after the soul returned to the Golden Tree, it did not receive a blessing, but became nourishment for the tree itself. At that time, I was very loyal to the Golden Law, and it was the golden tree’s heyday, so Twofinger and Black Sword had almost no surveillance on me. It was because of this opportunity that I entered the Golden Tree and observed it carefully for a period of time, and finally confirmed that my guess was not wrong.”

“No wonder that after eliminating the threat of the Ash Flame, Two Fingers immediately ordered me to kill Queen Nightfall and seize the Death of Destiny, so eager to exclude death from the law. Because death is the vessel of the soul, without the restraint of death, the souls of the dead, guided by the Golden Law, will return to the Golden Tree to become its nourishment. No wonder the Golden Tree’s power is expanding so rapidly, because war and territorial expansion can bring a large number of believers and nourishment.” Marika said, a self-deprecating smile appearing on her face. “Even before the Golden Tree era, there were many faith forces in the borderlands, but they never exhibited such obvious expansion.”

“I realized that my dreams were nothing but illusions, and that I was merely a tool to be used,” Marika said. “But by then, I couldn’t easily extricate myself…”

They thought it would benefit the border region, but it turned out to be nothing more than a dream.

Faced with Marika's questioning, Twofinger knew something was wrong.

They stripped Marika of her humanity and divinity.

Marika is now divided in two: her human side is herself, and her divine side is Radagan.

At this point, Lu Ye and A Tui stared wide-eyed.

So it turns out that Marika and Radagan... are actually the same person?

No wonder Michaela and Marlelia have physical defects; they are definitely the offspring of Marika's self-fertilization!

Although Radagan is the divine aspect of Marika, she is an absolute advocate of the Golden Law.

That's why Marika called him a dog of the Golden Law.

In other words, the emergence of Radagan signifies that Twofingers have designated him as the next King of Elden.

By binding herself with her own nature, Marika would be limited by her own divine side.

"Although the Supreme Will and Two Fingers created the ideal puppet, Radagan, I myself, as the vessel of the Ring, cannot be replaced in the short term. The Two Fingers also know that this cannot continue, after all, I already know the secret of the Golden Tree. So they began the selection of the next vessel, they began to look for a suitable candidate from the bloodline of demigods, as the vessel to contain the Elden Ring after me."

"During the Lienian War, Twofinger sent Rdagon because, as my demigod, he possessed divine status. That loyal dog and Renara had three children—Lani, Raccard, and Rataen. Rataen worshipped the First King and Rdagon, and Raccard was initially a follower of the Golden Law, but Lani was different... Although all three children had extremely high magical talent, only Lani, like her mother, had formed a connection with the moon. More importantly, she caught the eye of Twofinger."

Maria smiled. "So I took the veil of disguise from my boudoir, transformed into the Snow Witch Lena, and came before the child to teach her magic. Having formed a connection with the moon, she naturally developed a great longing for the night sky. Without even needing my gentle guidance, her faith became the night and the stars."

"That's why Lani developed a strong resistance to being chosen as a god by Two Fingers..." Lu Ye murmured.

“Yes, to become a vessel for the Ring means to abandon one’s faith,” Marica said. “Lani certainly wouldn’t agree to that. Upon learning of this, Twofinger immediately sent Radagan back. To uphold the Golden Law, and under the control of the Supreme Will, this loyal dog abandoned Queen Full Moon and married me immediately after I banished Gavri, becoming the second King of Elden.”

"You guys are really going all out..." Lu Ye couldn't help but exclaim.

"Because Lani refused to become a god-man and chose to hide herself, Radagan was ordered to give birth to Michaela and Marlene with me. Both of them were chosen to become gods-men, but Doublefinger did not expect that both of them had physical defects, so Doublefinger still tended to put Lani first."

According to Marika, all of this is a secret and is unknown to outsiders.

At that time, the Golden Tree was thriving, and everything seemed perfect from the outside.

But a storm was already brewing in the shadows.

In fact, before Radagan returned to the capital, Marika discovered the flaws in the Golden Law.

The Golden Law eliminates death, implying immortality, but predetermined death still exists...

In other words, to break the loophole in the Golden Law, one only needs to create a dead person among the demigods, thereby breaking the "eternal" Golden Law of Elden's Ring, which has already eliminated death.

So Marika began to secretly plot. After the First King ended the battle in Stoneville, Marika banished all the Faded Ones, including him, to the borderlands, forbidding them from setting foot there.

It was around that time that Godwin found Marika.

As the eldest prince of the Golden Clan, and also the one with the most normal appearance, he is highly skilled in martial arts and has repelled the ancient dragon forces that attacked the royal city. He is not only intelligent but also has a charming personality. Not only Rodel's soldiers, but even the ancient dragon Fulsanx has become his friend.

Such a prince was certainly not to be underestimated.

Godwin noticed something amiss in the actions of Twofinger, Radagan, and Marika's exile of Goufley. He began his investigation and discovered the secret of the Golden Tree in Marika's notes. To protect his mother and fight against the Golden Tree, Godwin sought out Marika, willing to sacrifice himself to create a loophole in the Law of the Rings, thereby disrupting the operation of the Golden Law.

This also foreshadowed the birth of the conspiracy night that followed.

The participants were not only Lani and Black Knife.

Lakad, Marika, and even Godwin himself were all part of this plan.

Strictly speaking, it was a case of one party willing to give and the other willing to receive.

Without Marika's secret help and her betrayal of her underling Maricus, Lani's attempt to steal the Death Rune would not have gone smoothly.

The Black Blades were also unable to easily kill Godwin, whose strength was comparable to that of an ancient dragon.

Chapter 683 Dark Moon Ring

After assisting the Black Knife Assassin in carrying out the conspiracy that night, Marika "justifiably" took the opportunity to smash the Ring of Law.

From the moment she discovered the flaws in the Golden Law, she foresaw the future, and thus had already banished the Faded Ones, including the First King Gofrey.

With the magic ring shattered and the Great Runes scattered among the demigods, a great war that will sweep across the borderlands is inevitable.

When the demigods are weakened, the Supreme Will will have no choice but to recall the Faded Ones who were exiled by Marika, bestow the blessing upon them once more, and send the Finger Witch to monitor and assist them...

After arranging her funeral, Marika peacefully awaited her death.

For the unforgivable crime of smashing the Dharma Ring, she was nailed to the Golden Tree by the Supreme Will.

Since Radagan was a part of the divine essence that was separated from Marika's body, his death was tantamount to his own, and he disappeared from the borderlands.

It was at this very moment that the fragments descended upon the border region.

Both fragments fell into the Golden Tree, and one of them was obtained by Marika, thus allowing her soul to escape. By transferring her soul into a doll, she reconnected with the Black Knife and found the legendary Ancient Dragon King. Using the power of the primordial life furnace remaining on the Dragon King's body, she created a stone tablet.

When the supreme will sent the meteorite down, it also brought a wild beast.

That was the Beast of Elden, or the original form of the Elden Ring. It absorbed the power of the Primal Life Furnace and, through the efforts of the royal army, transformed into the Golden Law, which caused the Golden Tree to flourish.

As mentioned before, another fragment remained inside the Golden Tree and was devoured by the Beast of Elden.

The Beast of Elden was originally the foundation of the Golden Tree, so even two fingers should not be able to convey the command of the supreme will to it.

However, under the influence of the fragments, after the magic ring shattered, the Golden Tree not only stopped declining, but also made direct contact with the Supreme Will, thus enabling it to indirectly attack Lu Ye through the Golden Tree.

Originally, Marika wanted to send the little dragon from Stoneville City directly to Ame's side, because Ame had already been chosen by Torret at that time.

However, at that moment, Lu Ye and his group appeared.

They rescued A-Tui from the tree guardians and decided to go to the Golden Tree together.

This aroused Marika's curiosity.

So she changed her plans, delivered the stone slab to Lu Ye and his group ahead of schedule, and attached her soul to the soul-summoning bell.

This also means that from the very beginning, the Eternal Queen has been by their side.

"But, Queen Marika, can't you transfer your soul to a doll?" A-Tui asked curiously, "Why do you want to stay inside the bell and stay by our side?"

“Of course, it’s because it’s very interesting… well, there are also reasons for myself,” Marika said. “The method of transferring the soul to achieve longevity is feasible. Long before the Lienian War began, I had contact with Queen Renara of the Magic Academy. The magicians in the Magic Academy could work day and night to pursue the origin of the Radiant Stone Magic, but their lifespans limited them. The junior magic apprentices could not quickly absorb the ideas and achievements of their predecessors, and might even lose some of their research. So we worked together to develop the mechanism of ‘soul transfer,’ which is to take the soul out of the old body and put it into a suitable container to extend lifespan.”

“Yuanhui Stone…” A-Tui remembered.

There is such a high-level magic at the Reallucalia Magic Academy.

"Yes, puppetry and Source Stone are actually complementary technologies. However, magicians refuse to use puppet bodies because they find them troublesome to maintain. Unfortunately, there are almost no 'puppet' in the world that can contain my soul. The Soul-Summoning Bell is one of the few."

"Later, in order to allow Lani to kill her own divine body, I passed on this technology to her."

“I see… But Lani said her dolls were modeled after you, but…” A-Tui scratched the hood, “Although they’re both beautiful, I always feel like they’re not the same person.”

“Because I wore a veil of disguise when I met Lani,” Marika said matter-of-factly. “Of course I cannot freely enter and leave the royal city as a queen, as that would damage the image of the Golden Clan.”

“I just didn’t expect you to have such a close relationship with Queen Full Moon…” Lu Ye said.

“Heh, otherwise why do you think Radagan so easily won over the Full Moon Queen’s heart?” Marika laughed.

“Wait a minute.” Lu Ye remembered something. “If you can act in spirit form, then Torina…”

“Yes. I saved him from Mungo,” Marika said. “Radagan and I are twins, and perhaps that’s why Michaela and Marlenia also have this tendency. It was this that saved Michaela. Although his masculine side couldn’t be saved, I successfully separated his feminine side. He is the only one who can develop a way to suppress the Crimson Corruption, and now he has helped you.”

"But getting back to the main point, even if the tree is burned down later, what's inside won't be so easy to deal with. My physical body is still inside the Golden Tree, and my soul has left, which means that body is now controlled by that loyal dog. After that, you will still have to face the threat of the Beast of Elden, whose strength has not decreased but increased, making it quite troublesome."

"The forces you can currently mobilize to restrain the royal city should be Black Blade, Sacred Tree, Red Lion Legion, and those two dragons that want to restore themselves to their original state using the power of the Primal Life Furnace... I have lost my physical body and cannot help you much, but I can still get help from my offspring."

"what?"

"Greek's army and Mung's army will join forces with you."

"Really?" A-Tui was stunned.

Lu Ye was also a little confused.

Greke is alright, but he's hopelessly addicted to limb extensions.

But how does Mongols become a pyroxene?

“That was one of the reasons I followed you,” Marika said. “Greek had Lani explain that after you obtained the bionic teardrop, the ashes would be just the right amount to hold my soul, so after you defeated Monger, I spoke with him.”

"Ah! No wonder these bionic teardrops always play the trick of disappearing and reappearing!" A-Tui suddenly realized.

"But how did you convince Monger?" Lu Ye asked curiously.

You definitely can't play the emotional card.

That's for sure.

Think about it: Munger and Mungert were left to live in the sewers of the royal city, while their brother Godwin was a prince in the royal city...

This goes beyond the level of favoritism alone.

Only King Mongot, the Ominous One, still considered himself a member of the royal city and defended it to the death when the War of Shattering arrived.

As for Munger?

They had already slipped away with the Invisible Mother during the Broken War.

“Monger has always wanted to establish his own dynasty, but I pointed out that Michaela’s male body is dead, which means his dream has been shattered,” Marika said. “It is understandable to want to establish a new dynasty, but it is only possible if the rule of the Golden Law is overthrown and the original appearance of the borderlands is restored, so that corruption, death, and blood can all exist equally as part of the laws that constitute this world.”

“In other words, this is the only path Monger can take to realize his long-cherished wish,” Marika said. “I, a dead man, have no way to deal with the crimson corruption of Ratan, and Rakad is willing to surrender to the great serpent of Gmir and assimilate with it, so this is the best we can do for now.”

"Great! Now we can focus our efforts on dealing with Montgomery!"

After excitedly finishing speaking, A-Tui shut his mouth and glanced nervously at Marika.

It's definitely not appropriate to say things like "Great! I can finally beat up your son!" in front of someone else's mother.

However, Marika doesn't seem to care much about her offspring.

“Mongt is not a problem. As long as I appear in front of him, he will find it difficult to make a move.” Marika frowned slightly. “The real troublesome one is the First King—Gofule. The Faded Ones have returned to the Borderlands, and he will definitely come as well.”

"What kind of person is Ge Fulei?" A-Tui asked.

“Maintaining the stability of the law requires a strong person,” Marika said. “He was one of the strongest and wildest warriors of that time.”
