The world is dark.

Valrhona closed her eyes, the darkness that had always been with her, but now, she could feel a completely different wave than before. In the darkness, there was a rumbling sound like a wheel. It was as if a galloping carriage kept moving forward, forward, and forward. But Valrhona knew what it was, it was the wheel of fortune moving forward, it relentlessly following its established trajectory, crushing everything that tried to stop it to pieces. That's why it's here, because it's here.

What exactly is fate?

Valrhona had no answer to this. The story told to her by the lord also aroused Valrhona's doubts, and if the monarch had not known the fate in advance, then he would not have tried to resist fate. And can this change the direction of fate? It's like yourself, if you choose to give up now, will fate make a different turn? Valrhona didn't know if it was the right thing to do, and the lord didn't think what she was doing could be judged by whether it was right or not.

"Right is always a corresponding word, and for human beings, everything you do is of course wrong. But for goblins and werewolves, you will be cheered and appreciated for what you do, because there will be no paladins to crusade against them, and they can plunder and kill freely -- there is no good or evil in itself, and tigers don't need a reason to eat people, and people need a reason not to eat people. That's the difference, for the tiger, humans are the prey that invades its sphere of influence, and there is no need to hunt it. But for humans. Walking on the road inexplicably, being attacked by a tiger is, of course, an unlucky thing. So there's only one thing you have to do, and that's ........."

Be firm in your beliefs.

Come to think of it. Valrhona clenched her hands hard and began to respond to the voice calling for her. Of course she knew what would happen after the Rite of Fate was activated. War, death and killing. In the chaos, the people who are struggling to survive have lost the existence they can rely on, and can only cry out for death and destruction, or for the glimmer of life that ethereal hope brings. It has happened, and now it will bring a new kind of death and destruction to the continent once again.

What will happen to those fellow convent friends?

Valrhona didn't know the answer, maybe she just didn't want to face it, even though the other sons of witches weren't very kind to her. But she was still worried about them. Because it was the first friend Valrhona had made since she was born, and ......... She was going to leave them forever.

Death.

Thinking of this, even if Valrhona has made up her mind, she can't help but feel a little scared, she doesn't know how she will die, although she already knows that she is part of the tablet of fate, but for Valrhona, she is her, not a tablet. She didn't remember what had happened to her time as a tablet of fate. So, when she returns to the Tablet of Destiny, will she still remember it all? Or is it as if you were asleep. Forgot it all?

"Boom Rumble ..............."

As if sensing Valrhona's deepest fear, the voices resonating between the Tablet of Fate grew louder and louder, but this was not urging Valrhona to continue her mission. On the contrary, the heavy roar seemed to have some incredible magic. Farhona's mood gradually became relaxed. She could feel the emotions coming from these tablets. They were aware of their hesitation and concern, and at the moment, in their own way, they were trying to reassure the panicked girl.

Perhaps, that's it......... Not bad either...............

Thinking of this, Valrhona closed her eyes.

"Is there really no problem? Master? ”

Standing outside the door, looking at the closed door in front of her, Enoa couldn't help frowning a little worriedly.

"Miss Valrhona has been in there for three days and three nights, and if it continues......... I'm afraid her body won't be able to stand it. ”

"Don't worry, Enoa."

Hearing Enoa's words, Jenn reached out and pushed his glasses, and then calmly gave an answer.

"I can feel that the power of the Tablet of Destiny is gradually merging, Valrhona is doing what she is supposed to do, and everything is going smoothly and without any problems."

"But what will happen to us after the Rite of Fate begins?"

"Then only God knows."

In the face of Enoya's slightly worried inquiry, Jenn gave a slightly irresponsible answer.

"You see, this is fate, we never know if the choice we make next is the right one, or whether what we pay is proportional or inverse to what we get, and any specious guidance of prophecy spells can only lead to vague dreams and traps. But ............"

At this point, Jenn paused, then he looked up again at the door in front of him.

“……… Still, we can't do nothing. ”

“――――！！”

At this moment, suddenly, with a roar that seemed to resound in the sky, the next moment the originally closed door opened instantly, and a dazzling light shone out of it, and even people couldn't open their eyes for a while. It wasn't until a moment later, when the light faded, that Jenn and Enoa turned back and looked down the hall inside the door.

In the center of the hall, a golden stone tablet was really suspended in the air, Valrhona floated in front of it, and a series of threads of fate shining with golden brilliance connected her to the stone of destiny in this way, forming a halo of light, enveloping them in it. At this moment, Valrhona's clothes have also changed, and what she is wearing is no longer the usual robe, but a pure white sacred vestment inlaid with gold trim patterns. Valrhona opened her eyes, and those eyes that had been unfocused were now shining with a charming brilliance, and even just looking at her, she felt a strong pressure -- as if she had seen through your past, present and future at a glance, without the slightest resistance.

Pillars of light erupted from the Tablet of Destiny and soared into the sky. As far as the eye could see, the whole room had long since ceased its original form, the ground was gone, replaced by a clear blue sky and pure white clouds, and it looked as if the tower was suspended in the sky--and this scene was not unfamiliar to Jenn.

"Alright, it looks like the Tablet of Destiny has been activated."

As he spoke, Jenn raised his head to look at the sky, only to see that the golden lines rushing into the sky were slowly spreading out in all directions, as if they were about to erode the entire sky. Then, suddenly, thunder roared in the sky, dark clouds rolled, and then dazzling beams of light burst out from all directions, and they pierced through the clouds and shone on the ground. And watching this scene, Jenn whistled.

"The show is on."

Then, he muttered to himself. (To be continued.) )
