Start with the Wizarding World

Chapter 221 Unforgettable Conversation

Rorschach has always been wondering why the 'Throne of Fools' helped him descend into the Gray Region in the identity of Zeus, and even helped him escape from the control of the 'Throne of Stars'.

At first he had speculated whether it was related to his identity as a time traveler.

But then he changed his mind and thought that traveling through different worlds was not a strange thing even for the Great Wizard Yueyao, let alone the throne?
Even if he is a time traveler, what does it have to do with the 'Throne of Foolishness'?
He had different speculations about this matter at different stages, but no matter which speculation he had made before, there was something unreasonable about it.

So he simply stopped guessing and put the matter behind him.

It was not until this moment that he finally figured out everything.

The reason why 'Foolish Throne' would help him was closely related to their meeting on Hajime Island, and the drunkard was the mastermind behind this!

"Why are you doing this?" Rorschach asked, staring at the drunkard.

"What do you mean?" the drunkard asked with a smile.

"Why are you helping me with all this?" Rorschach asked.

"Why do you think I'm helping you, instead of this being the way it should be?" the drunkard smiled meaningfully.

"Since you can travel through time and space, you should know that I hate the Riddler the most. Can't you just say what you want to say directly?" Rorschach said speechlessly.

The drunkard said, "It's not that I don't speak directly, but there are some things I can't say. Even if I want to say it, you can't hear it, and even if you hear it, you can't remember it."

Rorschach asked, "For example?"

The drunkard laughed and said, "For example... do you remember it?"

Rorschach: “?”

The drunkard said, “I just told you the reason.”

Rorschach said: "But you didn't say anything at all."

The drunkard shook his head and said, "No, I have already said it, but you just can't remember it."

Rorschach pointed at himself and said, "Do you think I'm a fool?"

The drunkard spread his hands and said, "See, I knew you wouldn't believe it."

"wait."

Rorschach raised his hand to signal the drunkard not to speak, then he took out a pocket watch from his divine realm and held it in front of him:
"Okay, go ahead and tell me—"

The drunkard immediately understood what Rorschach wanted to do, but he didn't care. He said as before: "Then I'll start...Okay."

The moment the drunkard opened his mouth to speak, Rorschach pressed the pocket watch in his hand to start the time, and when he finished speaking, he stopped it again.

However, in his perception, all this only took no more than five seconds, but on the timer... half a minute had passed!
He was quite sure that the drunkard did not take this opportunity to attack him or do anything to him.

It is true that the drunkard's strength is comparable to that of the strongest, but now his original form as a wizard has become a Purgatory Wizard at the peak of the sixth ring!
If measured only by combat power, he is now at most slightly inferior to the original 'Star Throne', and the gap is not that big.

In this situation, even if he could not defeat the strongest person, he would not be affected by the other party and would not be able to detect it at all. But the fact is that there is a gap between his senses and reality, which makes him have to believe what the drunkard said before!
It turns out that there are some words that you really are not even qualified to listen to.

He was not sure what was interfering with him, but he was sure that the source of the interference was definitely beyond his current understanding.

Maybe the drunkard knew where the interference came from, but he couldn't tell him the truth because he wouldn't remember it even if he told him.

This is like a paradox, there is no correct answer at all.

"try again."

Rorschach changed his mind this time and directly took out a recording device and motioned for the drunkard to continue.

The drunkard obviously understood his plan, but he didn't say much. He just repeated it again according to his request:
"Then you're ready...Okay."

Although Rorschach had understood what had happened during the process, his personal experience still made him feel it was extremely absurd.

Nothing happened, but time seemed to fast forward.

Fortunately, he recorded it this time, and judging from the recording time displayed on the recording device, it was obviously recorded.

He didn't hesitate and chose to play the recording directly: "Then you are ready...Okay."

Nothing happened, and still nothing could be heard during the entire process.

It was as if a piece of time had been cut off by a pair of scissors, exactly as the drunkard had told him directly before.

At this moment, Rorschach was silent.

Even though he had actually believed before that this matter could not be investigated and that even if it was investigated it would yield no results, he still felt that there might be loopholes that could be exploited.

Facts have proved that the mysterious power will not be deceived by such little tricks. If it cannot be remembered, it cannot be remembered.

The drunkard had not lied to him.

"Do you believe it now?" The drunkard looked at him and smiled.

"Yes." Rorschach nodded, and then said, "So how can I know the truth and become a rule-level? Or a higher level?"

"It will be quick, don't worry." The drunkard said with a smile.

"Very soon?" Rorschach was slightly surprised.

"Go back, we will meet again soon. You can remember this when we meet next time. Believe me, I have no ill will towards you." The drunkard said with a chuckle.

Rorschach was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, then take me back."

The drunkard also smiled and nodded, then waved again.

This time, Rorschach was mentally prepared, so even though his eyes went dark, he didn't take it to heart.

When the light came back in front of his eyes, he had already appeared in the void.

This was the place where he disappeared for the last time. At that time, he had just tried to stop Bai with Big Eyes and the others.

But the final result was that Bai recognized him as Yuan, and told him that his real name was Bai, not Guimu.

At that time, Rorschach just felt a little confused, but now he has figured it all out.

It turned out that he had never been misidentified, and he was the only one who didn't know that he was Yuan, and always felt that he was competing with the big-eyed creatures in a battle of wits and courage.

It turned out that he was battling wits with the air.

It has to be said that the existence of Shidao is indeed magical, and it can even take him to a very distant era in this universe.

The purgatory dimension at that time was just in its infancy and was not as complete as it is now.

After this incident, Rorschach had a clearer understanding of the origin of Purgatory, which even many Purgatory Lords were probably not aware of.

In fact, the birth of the Purgatory Dimension is very similar to the birth of Hajime Island in some ways.

The emergence of Shidao Island is due to the fact that billions of lives that were annihilated in the catastrophes in many eras left behind a ray of hope, which eventually turned into Shidao Island.

Purgatory is just the opposite. Although it is also born from the thoughts of all living beings, it is a collection of despair.

All the despair that had appeared in this universe was the nourishment of Purgatory. Purgatory itself was an extreme despair. This was why when Rorschach first absorbed the power of Purgatory, he could speed up the absorption by collecting despair.

Because despair itself is an integral part of purgatory.

Of course, at first glance, Hajime Island is definitely more powerful than Purgatory. After all, Hajime Island itself can travel through different time and space.

Purgatory is said to be completely integrated with this universe. It looks like a replica of this universe, and it is also connected to any location in this universe.

The world is endless, which is the most accurate description of purgatory.

But how can the endless sea compare with the endless sea from ancient times to the present?

However, the troubles of Purgatory go far beyond this.

It is true that it cannot travel through time and space like Hajime, but its accumulated feelings of despair are irreversible and remain.

This means that Purgatory is becoming more and more terrifying!
If we look at the timeline in a longer term, at the beginning of Purgatory's birth, ten Purgatory would not be a match for the original.

Until later, the scales of victory were always tilting towards Purgatory. Not only was the number of Purgatory Lords increasing, but the Purgatory dimension itself was also growing and becoming more and more exaggerated.

Today's purgatory dimension is already higher than the original star.

The Origin can still temporarily maintain a balance with Purgatory only because these top original survivors, including Bai, are holding on.

According to the estimation of the Lords of Purgatory, in just three more eras, Purgatory will be able to completely crush the Primordial, and the gap will only grow larger.

But this is not the most important.

The most important thing is that if Purgatory continues to develop in this trend, problems will arise sooner or later.

To some extent, purgatory is the trash can of this universe, storing a large amount of emotional garbage for this universe.

But if one day there is so much garbage that the trash can can no longer hold it, the only thing we can do is to try our best to compress the volume of the garbage and delay the outbreak.

However, the purgatory nowadays is actually a place filled with negative forces. Once it erupts, this world will basically be finished.

The despair that has accumulated over countless eras will wash over this world in an instant, triggering unpredictable catastrophic consequences!
"Could this catastrophe be related to Purgatory?" Rorschach thought back to what he had previously understood, feeling a little uneasy.

Indeed, according to the estimates of the Purgatory Lords, Purgatory can last at least three more eras.

But estimates are just estimates after all, and they are not the same as results.

Moreover, he always felt that there was probably a reason why he traveled through time to this era instead of earlier or later.

Although there was no evidence, his intuition told him that everything was connected.

"It's time to go back and take a look." Rorschach took a step forward and disappeared on the spot.

……

With Bai's escape, the Blood Prison World Group and the [Prison Court] have actually lost their greatest function - imprisoning the original weird mother.

That incident was a calculation that spanned tens of millions of years.

However, the final result was obvious to all. The 'Holy Throne' that boasted of its superior skills was defeated miserably.

He originally planned to kill the original ghost mother completely, but the final result was that he released her with his own hands. This matter was like a joke from beginning to end.

It is worth mentioning that after escaping from the trouble, Bai disappeared without a trace.

It's as if it had never existed.

But the thrones all knew that this was impossible.

They have imprisoned Bai for nearly an entire era. Could Bai really endure such a great hatred?
At least if it were them, they would definitely not be able to tolerate it.

Therefore, when the plan of the 'Holy Throne' failed, what awaited the wizarding world next was revenge that could come at any time.

Because of this incident, the other thrones now have considerable opinions about the 'Holy Throne'.

Especially the 'Abyss Throne' and the 'Wisdom Throne'. The former is not in harmony with the 'Holy Throne' and will naturally not miss the opportunity to add insult to injury.

As for the latter, it is simply about the matter, not the person.

The 'Throne of Wisdom', 'Throne of Heart' and 'Throne of Folly' were all against the plan of the 'Throne of Saint' at the beginning, but later the other two stopped participating in the Supreme Council for various reasons, and he was left alone, so he had to accept the plan.

After all, he really didn't want to fight to the death with the 'Holy Throne' just because of different ideas.

If it was changed to 'Throne of Foolishness', he might not mind, because the reason why he is called Foolishness is because he never cares about other people's opinions.

As long as he thinks it is right, he will stick to it.

Facts have proven that the Holy Throne was indeed at fault in this matter, but unfortunately there is no turning back.

If you make a mistake, you are bound to pay the price.

However, this price will not be borne by the 'Holy Throne', but most likely the entire wizarding world will share this responsibility.

"Long time no see, Uncle Silva."

When Rorschach returned to Blood Prison Island, the first person he chose was to see Silva.

Although Silva's care for him can be largely attributed to his cheap father, there is still some affection between them.

"What do you mean it's been a long time? Didn't we just separate? Where did you go before?" When Silva heard that it was Rorschach, he immediately put down what he was doing and nagging, "Don't be too upset. That kind of thing is not something that the chief warden can decide alone. He is also..."

Silva stopped talking halfway!
He stopped talking and looked at Rorschach in shock, as if he had discovered a new world!
"...You, how could that be?" Silva was a little incoherent.

Because until this moment, he realized that he could no longer see through Rorschach's life status, which also meant that Rorschach's life level had become higher than his!
You know, for Silva, he and Rorschach were only separated for a few days.

Rorschach had just broken through to the fifth-ring Moonlight a few days ago, so how come he became the sixth-ring so quickly?

Even those thrones couldn't have been so exaggerated at the time.

To be honest, Silva was really shocked!

He doubted very much that even if those thrones were reincarnated, they would not be able to achieve such an outrageous promotion speed as Rorschach.

There is absolutely no logic in this.

However, what he didn't know was that although they had only been separated for a few days for him, for Rorschach it had been too long.

You know, Rorschach has stayed in the era when Purgatory was first created for too long.

Although this span is not very long for old-time Moon Saints like Silva who have lived for tens of millions of years, it is too long for Rorschach.

Before that, he had only lived for a few decades.

Seeing Silva again at this time, the feeling for him was indeed very different.

There is a feeling of memories walking into reality.
