You are all my wings!

After saying that, she winked at Leon, curled her fingers around a strand of light blue hair, hesitated, and then pulled Camille away.

In the past, Orpheus said, "Tayamisili, thank you for waking me up this time. You should go and rest for now."

"Ok."

With a flap of her wings, Tayamishili lightly followed Hamra and the other two.

In the blink of an eye, several people left, and the past version of Orpheus spoke up: "I have already set up an information flow barrier around here, so you can tell me that so-called secret now."

Terena reached out and gently touched his elbow, her delicate fingers lightly tapping Lyon's palm, then nodded to him.

"So it seems you've all decided to get involved in this?"

Lyon said seriously, "In that case, you two should prepare to fight together and eliminate hostility, so that you can withstand the enormous pressure that may come next."

That was his real purpose: to use the secret to bring the two together as a small group.

As for what secret to use, he naturally selected it in advance using the Time-Space Miracle Divination Technique to avoid the other party knowing something beforehand.

The previous version of Orpheus raised an eyebrow, clearly seeing through Leon's thoughts, and looked over with a half-smile, then said, "Let's see if the information you're talking about is really that amazing."

Terena glanced at Lyon, but said nothing.

Lyon said, "The first piece of information is that there are two Origin Goddesses, and they joined forces to suppress Jormungandr six million years ago."

As he said this, Leon kept a close eye on Terena's expression.

Because Therena may have also tracked down the First Realm Island six million years ago, and there is a chance that she could have guessed Cheng Erheli's identity.

But he still chose to start this way because if Terena didn't know, it meant he had more room to maneuver.

To Leon's surprise, Terena looked slightly astonished upon hearing this, indicating that she was unaware of the aftermath of the First World Island incident.

Beside him, the past version of Orpheus said, "Two Origin Goddesses? You mean clones?"

Lyon said, "No, it is another Origin Goddess born from the origin of another entirely new world outside of this world."

Terena's eyes flickered: "You mean, the one who kidnapped you six million years ago was the Origin Goddess born from that other Origin Land?"

It seems she has realized that Leon is referring to Cheng Erhe Li.

Lyon said, "No, I think the situation is the opposite. Petrified is another origin goddess from outside this world, while the origin goddess of this Auster world is the one who kidnapped me."

"how so?"

A strange look appeared on Terena's usually cool face.

"It's quite simple. Although Petrified also controls the workings of this world, she rarely stays here personally, instead lingering in another place of origin for extended periods. Furthermore, Terena, you should know very well that Jormungandr and Petrified are both supreme gods, yet they have a significant difference..."

"You mean the Epoch Elves?"

Terena's eyes flickered slightly.

Lyon nodded: "That's right. At the end of Genesis, Petrified introduced the seed of the Sacred Tree from outside the world, and then used it to nurture each generation of Epoch Spirits, thus helping them survive the final calamity of the Epoch. But the Goddess of the End, when it's her turn to act, doesn't need to do any of these things; she only needs to act alone. As both are supreme beings, according to mythological records, half of the Goddess of the End's origin is the power of the world's end, and the other half is the power of the birth and death tides from outside the world. The two combined constitute the Goddess of the End. Logically speaking, the Goddess of the End's authority in this world should be slightly weaker than that of the Origin Goddess, who was born entirely from within the world. But the outcome of their battles is always that the Goddess of the End wins more often than she loses. Isn't that strange?"

He had noticed these doubts long ago, and only after communicating with several goddesses and through this divination did he finally realize that they were not fabricated.

Upon hearing this, Terena nodded slightly: "That does make some sense, but these two points are evidence of circumstances, not direct evidence, right? Perhaps we can explain it the other way around, for example, that the power of the birth and death tide is essentially stronger than a newly born world? Although that is a bit far-fetched, it is not entirely unreasonable."

Lyon said, "That is indeed a point of doubt, but based on the current evidence, it is the closest guess to the answer."

The previous version of Orpheus frowned and said, "Wait, after all you've said, who exactly is the other Origin Goddess?"

"Please don't be in a hurry, Your Excellency."

Lyon said, "I cannot reveal the name of the true Origin Goddess for the time being. I can only tell you that the alliance of these two Origin Goddesses is most likely the fundamental reason why the world has completely ended and cannot restart and start a new era."

Orpheus, in his previous version, said, "That's strange. Jormungandr represents the end. If she is suppressed, the end of the world will inevitably be delayed."

Lyon shook his head: "No, quite the opposite."

Terena said, "Are you saying that the balance between the End and the Origin game has been broken? If Jormungandr is really suppressed, then the subsequent struggle will be a struggle between the two Origin Gods, one internal and one external?"

The past version of Orpheus's eyes flashed: "Interesting. Because they all want to fight for the power of the world's origin, they can't form a normal origin-end cycle, causing the world to completely collapse and become unable to restart?"

Lyon said, "That's right. I've been thinking about why Lady Jormungandr sent me to this era just before I was suppressed. Now that I see the scene of the world groaning as the two fight, I understand. It's so torturous for the world when the two masters of the forbidden zones fight even slightly seriously. It shows that the world is becoming more and more fragile and cannot withstand too much fighting."

He added, "If Petrified is an externally originating god, then the fact that the world is getting weaker and weaker is also key evidence of this, because her foundation is not here."

"Interesting, really interesting."

Orpheus laughed: "It seems you weren't just making things up, Lyon. This secret is very important. If Petrified is indeed an external Origin God, then we have the key to defeating her."

She turned to look at Therena: "In that case, Therena, let's cooperate, get rid of this Outer Origin God, seize more power among the Ten Strong, and incidentally solve the problem of the world's impending complete collapse."

Therena didn't answer, but looked at Lyon: "This is the result you expected, isn't it?"

Lyon's heart skipped a beat.

What's going on? Why does Terena suddenly seem a bit strange?

What did she mean by asking that?

Why does she seem to have such subtle differences in her mood and state of mind now compared to before?

Or did I accidentally trigger something with something I just said?

With doubt in his eyes, Lyon said earnestly, "What I hope for is that the two of you will stop fighting, avoid conflict, and resolve your hostility."

Terena asked, "Is that all? Is there anything else?"

The previous version of Orpheus frowned and said, "Terena, now it's my turn to ask if you will cooperate! You should know that I don't usually make such a proposal."

Terena shook her head: "I will not respond to your offer of cooperation until I get a real answer from Lyon."

On her usually aloof and indifferent delicate face, a rare look of solemnity and unwavering stubbornness appeared.

Chapter 581 Orpheus: It seems this alternate personality isn't all bad.

Want to know my real answer?

Leon and Terena exchanged glances, trying to glean something from her expression.

The result revealed nothing at all; at this point, she was even unusually calm.

My answer is the same as before.

He said, "However, if you ask for my more honest thoughts, I do have some personal motives."

Terena's expression finally shifted slightly: "What ulterior motive?"

Lyon said, “It’s very simple. Six million years ago, you and I were husband and wife in name and in reality. Orpheus and I have already accomplished all of this in this era. She even gave birth to a daughter for me. So, what I really hope for is that you can get along harmoniously as my wife.”

He could have made up many reasons.

But faced with Therina's unprecedented performance, he decided to be honest.

Since she was familiar with him six million years ago, and even after reincarnation, her strength has recovered considerably, and she has also been in contact with Hamra, Camille, Britta, Iris, Maquilu, and others, she should have known his thoughts long ago.

Of course, Leon still hasn't figured out the real purpose behind her words, and he needs to continue observing Terena's reaction.

Whether his words would satisfy Terena was another matter, but the past version of Orpheus was both angry and amused. She glared at Leon and snorted:

"Boy, I didn't expect you to be so young yet so audacious, actually wanting to have two masters of the forbidden zones as your wives?"

"You've made a mistake."

Leon turned to look at the past version of Orpheus: "When I met your alternate personality, I didn't know your identity, and you hadn't regained your original personality yet. Even after you regained your original personality, I still didn't give up the idea of ​​keeping your alternate personality, because all the memories and feelings she shared with me in the past are precious things that can't be washed away."

[Goddess Ophimosa's favorability +1%, current favorability 146%]

The past version of Orpheus's eyes flickered, and then he said, "That's a nice way to put it, but you have to remember why I left behind this alternate personality."

Lyon said, "Of course I know, which is why I hope the two of you can get along harmoniously, cooperate with each other, and avoid internal strife."

“Very good, but you must remember that I am only willing to cooperate with Therena temporarily until the end of the world.”

As she spoke, the past version of Orpheus looked at Terena and asked, "Well, has your Leon given you a satisfactory answer yet?"

Terena sighed softly: "Meaningless fighting is indeed a waste of time. I can agree to cooperation and allow you and Lyon to do some things, but in the days to come, Lyon must be within my observation range. Otherwise, I would rather fight you until the world collapses than agree to cooperation."

Lyon could tell from her expression that she was not entirely satisfied with her answer.

Fortunately, she agreed to cooperate and will not fight the past version of Orpheus for the time being.

Judging from their combat strength, he felt that Terena would have a slight advantage because she recovered her status earlier.

He wondered if she harbored other thoughts... Leon fell into deep thought.

The previous version of Orpheus smiled slightly: "Very good."

She realized that Terena probably valued Leon more, so she cared more about Leon's feelings and was therefore more willing to relinquish some rights.

'It seems that developing this alter ego isn't all bad.'

……

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

After reaching a temporary agreement, the three left the royal court and headed directly to the inner boundary between the Land of the End and the River of Time, in order to find the so-called end of the River of Time.

They planned to check the situation at the end of time in person, just in case.

As for the temporary disappearance of the human empress Ophimasso, Leon, in the form of a nascent authority, sent a message to Hamra and Camille, asking them to take over in her place.

Of course, while Hamra and Camille are among the strongest in the mortal realm, there is a fatal racial problem for them to rule the human empire: neither of them are pure-blooded humans.

Previously, with the real human empress keeping the situation under control, and Hamra and Camille occasionally stepping in to assist, they were able to hold on.

Therefore, Hamra informed Lyon that he would send a message urging the three popes (Castigia, Moriper, and Britta) to return as soon as possible and take over the government in place of the papacy's authority.

In the early days of Leon's return, they were still preaching in various parts of the continent, accelerating the spread of the Astalia religion. When they received news of Leon's return, they returned as soon as possible. However, by the time they returned to human territory, Leon and his two companions had already left. It was a regrettable farewell.

As for the disappearances of Iris and Magiru, the temporary absence of Baisaqilai in this era, the lingering remnant soul of Anemii within her soul, the whereabouts of Helvie, the search for Angelo, and the preparations for meeting Keketi, Leon can only postpone these matters until the relationship between the two great gods, Ophimasso and Terena, is completely resolved.

After all, they are only temporarily cooperating, and it will probably take a long time before they can get along harmoniously.

Even with two Forbidden Zone Lords leading the way, tearing through the void and piercing through vast spatial barriers, the journey to the depths where the End Land meets the River of Time still took three days.

According to the previous version of Orpheus, if it were just going to the depths of the End Land, the Lord of the Forbidden Zone could arrive in just a few hours with his strength.

However, if it is the area where the End of Time and the River of Time meet, it is a colossal time-space maze where speed is not the key, but accurate orientation is the core.

Leon, on the other hand, was responsible for using the End Seal and the Time-Space Miracle Divination Technique to locate that end.

Along the way, he naturally took the opportunity to use the fifteen modes to quickly advance his learning of eleventh-tier elemental magic.

Since the carrying mode has been upgraded to the only perfect mode at present, and has an ultra-long duration of eleven hours, he still has plenty of time to learn eleventh-level magic even if he skips levels.

In just three days, he had advanced each of the four spells to 99% completion, and was only a few days away from perfection.

If it weren't for the enhancement of the carrying mode he received upon this return, it would have taken him at least several months to learn these four spells based solely on the previous fifteen modes. Moreover, he would have needed to accumulate more time to break through to the perfect level. This shows that the perfect level mode provides a huge boost.

On this day, in front of an invisible vortex flowing with enormous amounts of time fluctuations, three figures, enveloped by two powerful barriers of authority, swiftly traversed this vast place, like ants in a boundless ocean.

"Kid, wake up. In a little while, we'll enter the inner region where the River of Time and the Land of the End meet. Even with your physique, it will be very dangerous from here on out. You have two choices: stick close to me or stick close to Terena. This is a matter of life and death; there's no chance to have it both ways. What do you want to choose?"

Leon snapped out of his meditative state of magical imagery and opened his eyes to see the past version of Orpheus gripping his shoulder with one hand, a mischievous smile playing on her bright red lips.

Chapter 582 Orpheus: Don't mess around in front of me

Regarding the question about the past version of Orpheus, Leon didn't hesitate to hug Terena beside him and laughed:

"Of course I'm with my wife."

[Goddess Therena's favorability +2%, current favorability 144%]

Terena's eyes flickered slightly, her cheeks flushed briefly, and she subtly tightened her embrace on Leon with her other hand.

The former version of Orpheus's pretty face darkened, and a hint of coldness appeared in her eyes: "Oh?"

"Your Excellency, I am deeply in love with your alternate personality. As for your primary personality, haven't you yet acknowledged our relationship?"

Lyon, on the contrary, felt emboldened.

Unlike before, he now holds the initiative in the situation.

Of course, his reliance is not entirely on the cooperative relationship established between the past versions of Orpheus and Terena, since there is no explicit contract, and it is easy to break the agreement if things go too far.

His reliance was mainly on the fact that he had figured out the personalities of the two women and had a general grasp of their bottom line, so at least what he had just said should be safe.
