Chapter 660 Decent
"I'm a little unaccustomed to you suddenly becoming so polite." Milo sat cross-legged, resting his chin on one hand.

From the perspective of the real world, the half-crippled Milo grabbed the Scarlet Witch by the neck and slammed her back to the ground from the sky. He then proceeded to beat and kick the Scarlet Witch on the ground like a thug in a fight, just a few meters away from the two people in the dream illusion.

The Scarlet Witch, looking at her own brutal beating in the real world, murmured:

"You're not being polite at all."

Milo grinned: "Looks like you've finally learned some of the methods of normal human verbal communication."

"You mean that joke from earlier?"

"That should be considered irony."

"I see……"

...

"In short, I'm very glad that you found a way to break the deadlock."

The two sat in the Dreamscape, watching the two outside engage in a passionate brawl, said the Scarlet Witch.

"But I think there are some things you need to understand thoroughly before that."

“Tell me about it,” Milo nodded.

Then the Scarlet Witch blurted out, "Regardless of blood relation, love with your sister will never have a happy ending..."

Milo squinted and stared blankly for about ten seconds before continuing to ask:

"Is there any more valuable information? I mean, several people risked their lives to pass on some clues to me, unlike you who are giving me a crash course in orthopedics before they die."

“Actually, the solution to this situation was there from the beginning, and you were already in the middle of it. The girl will guide you,” the Scarlet Witch said.

"Girl? Which one specifically?" Milo felt it was necessary to clarify this issue.

But the Scarlet Witch just kept talking to herself:

"Furthermore, there is no need to be saddened by what is to come. It is their predetermined fate. Remember, without you, the Blood Moon is nothing more than a simple reshuffling of the old ways. The only thing that the gods cherish and fear is that which lies dormant in the deepest part of the waking world."

“Didn’t we agree not to tell riddles…” Milo started rolling his eyes.

“Then I can tell you more bluntly, these mad ancient beings are not your enemies, nor is the Blood Moon Gherros, and neither am I, nor the gods of dreams, the most terrifying opponents you are about to face.” The Scarlet Witch suddenly became serious and solemn, her voice even trembling slightly:

"I have already sensed their presence, the minions of destiny, the millions of favored ones. They have already arrived in the world of waking beings, long before the Blood Moon descended, those creatures who have been manipulating and influencing the birth and destruction of the world without your knowledge..."

Milo scratched his head: "Besides the Old Ones, Blood Moons, and Gods present, are there any even more powerful beings who haven't shown themselves? The minions of Destiny? The Favored Ones?"

He suddenly remembered the large amount of energy that had recently poured out from the direction of the church.

The old battlefield had clearly not yet reached the other side of the Crimson Mountains, but an even more terrifying battle had broken out in the Prayer Square. Could this be what the Scarlet Witch had said...?

“As I’ve already said, this is the process of breaking the deadlock. Some predetermined fates and conclusions will unfold one after another. For some, this is something that has indeed happened once before. Those so-called messages and hints are nothing but meaningless pleas from weak souls. The truth is that they don’t need to make any sacrifices. You can ultimately turn the situation around,” said the Scarlet Witch.

“A meaningless sacrifice, you mean C and the Blood Saintess who died at the hands of Crimson, right?” Milo’s words were devoid of any obvious emotion.

“Scarlet Witch hoped to gain your trust at the beginning of this chaotic era. The truth is, I have no intention of downplaying the deaths of those people, but they certainly disturbed your thoughts to some extent.” The Scarlet Witch made no attempt to hide her ruthless side.

“Including Daisy?” Milo’s eyes gradually turned cold.

But the Scarlet Witch shook her head: "What Scarlet wants is your wholehearted conversion, not deception and trickery. Even if that girl really falls into danger, it will never be Scarlet's doing."

“But I really can’t remember my real name,” Milo said.

This is a message delivered by the Blood Saintess.

Besides that, C said many things before disappearing, including the speed at which the Lunar Enlightenment spreads, stopping Doros's summoning, and so on...

"Does it matter?" the Scarlet Witch retorted. "The means to break the deadlock was in your hands from the beginning. To them, you are also in a superior position. Those in a superior position always have a broader and clearer vision. Messages from those in a subordinate position are nothing but their foolish self-deception. How can mortals possibly influence the decisions of those in a superior position? You should understand this better than I do." "So you mean I should just blindly follow along like this?" Milo asked.

"The confusion is only temporary, you must believe that," the Scarlet Witch said earnestly.

...

It can be seen that the Chaos Visionaries have gradually gained a foothold on the battlefield.

The killing was like a rolling gear; once it started, it was unstoppable. From the moment the first Old One died a violent death, the Bounty Order's bestowed droplets continuously fed this team pure and powerful energy. Like a snowball rolling downhill, they grew wildly at an astonishing speed in this meat grinder.

Aside from the battlefield, the citizens of Nanwei City, who had been deep in slumber, had awakened at some point. They were now devoutly bowing and praying to the giant blood moon in their mouths.

The blood moon's breath repeatedly "baptized" this last piece of civilized land.

All emotions in the eyes of mortals have been replaced by the radiance of the blood moon. They have not gone mad as they used to, but have instead become completely immersed in it, numb and indifferent.

When hundreds of thousands of people from across the city rushed to the open area to worship the blood moon, it probably confirmed the "moon's enlightenment" mentioned in the prophecy.

This is the invisible influence of the Outer Gods.

Even after most of the fear had been swallowed up, there was still no ability to resist.

...

"Don't worry, you'll soon have no time to care about the dead. I just hope you can face the grief that follows with some dignity," the Scarlet Witch said calmly, gazing at the pitiful souls who had been enlightened atop Nanwei City.

Milo shook his head: "I think we were somewhat bound by interests for a period of time, but it would be difficult for me to feel sad about your departure."

“You misunderstood. I didn’t expect you to feel sad after killing me with your own hands. I meant, I’m sorry for what’s about to happen to the people around you,” the Scarlet Witch said.

"So my judgment is correct, right?" Milo asked. "The Canamagus Testament is the reason you survived the Annihilation Era and are still alive today."

“Yes.” The Scarlet Witch nodded emphatically.

“You’ve always known I have a way to kill you,” Milo asked.

"Well, but I didn't know your old father would take it apart and break it down..." The Scarlet Witch said the unbelievable truth.

"To be honest, I didn't expect this either," Milo sighed.

"But it seems he managed to salvage the situation in time." The Scarlet Witch glanced deep into the formation of the Chaos Visors.

Kang seems to have actually restored the Canamaghi Will, which had been disassembled into multiple weapon components.

"Yes, that's right, it's this exact time." The Scarlet Witch suddenly said something inexplicable.

"What time period?"

“They are coming, and it is time for me to begin my atonement.”

...

Before Milo could even finish asking his question, his consciousness was forcibly squeezed out of the Dream Illusion.

...

The two, who were chatting calmly just a moment ago, have now returned to the state of fierce battle at the center of the storm.

Pain, torment, and burning sensations flooded Milo's brain.

He heard Kang calling from afar.

The other person was holding up a large bunch of weapon parts strung together by chains and shouting in their direction, "The will is repaired!"
