Devil's Bible

Chapter 82 Maxims of Destiny
“What a coincidence…” Nemus raised an eyebrow. He really just happened to see something illegal on his way to the church and then took action.

The precise selection of the Dartmenley family's influence can only be described as...

“Fate?” Nems looked up at the setting sun.

This world is indeed governed by fate.

For believers, so-called destiny is God's guidance.

"So I know that God is not omnipotent, and they cannot control fate, so what exactly is fate?"

Nemus's thoughts wandered slightly, and then he felt the divine number within his soul was slightly warming up, and then a wisp of information flowed out.

In the beginning, all things were a sea of ​​mud, and its number was zero.

[Something solidified from the muddy sea, and its number was one.]

From zero to one, the beginning of destiny.

—The Tablet of Fate.

It was at this moment that Nemus had a sudden inspiration and understood the composition of divinity, or rather, the divine maxim that the divine authority conveyed to Nemus.

"So that's it! The answer has always been on the surface of the riddle!" Nemus instantly understood what the number meant.

Numerical values ​​are Nemus's own classification of power, but the number of species is a concept already existing in this world.

The divinity that Nemus obtained was also the number of divinities.

"Since it's a number, there are big and small, many and few."

Numbers are the origin of this world.

From zero to one, and from one to more numbers.

"Therefore, one thing that can be determined is that the number is finite."

"Therefore, the number of species is different for all species."

"All living beings divide the remainder, and by desperately increasing their numbers, they can elevate their species."

"It is precisely because numbers are not infinite that destiny exists."

"And what constitutes divinity is the preceding number, the cardinal number, the initial number!"

"All things are clay, numbers are the aggregate, and numbers are the fundamental rules of everything."

"If I continue to learn more, I may be able to discover the true number of the components of the Divine Authority of the Commandments."

"This time I sensed destiny, and the number of divine beings responded, uttering this maxim of destiny."

"As I learn more about the precepts, perhaps the section on the number of precepts in the maxims of destiny will then be revealed to me."

Having grasped this point, Nemus also understood the nature of fate.

"So the old pastor's divine guidance wasn't actually a lie." Nemus sensed the changes in his divine nature and then realized that some of the things he had encountered might have been driven by fate.

After all, zero to one is the starting point of destiny, so the subsequent values ​​are also part of destiny.

When a deity possesses divine authority, he/she possesses a portion of the initial number.

It's quite normal that they can use this to influence changes in destiny and provide unseen guidance to all living beings.

“So, from this perspective, the God of Discipline may be in worse shape than we thought!” Nemus felt uneasy about the twists of fate.

If the God of Discipline is acting behind the scenes, then all of this is normal.

Its purpose is to promote the completeness of divinity.

Everything started to change the moment Nemus appeared in Nair's life.

The same applies to Nemus's arrival in Tailwind Town; the events he encounters are full of both chance and inevitability.

"The problem is that it's too crude, so much so that I can sense something is wrong, which allows me to delve deeper into the number of divine attributes." Having confirmed this, Nemus kept the changes in fate in mind, but he didn't rush to make any changes, wanting to rewrite fate or break free from it.

Those ideas are too empty, lacking concrete power; they are just wishful thinking that will only push things to where fate dictates.

"Anyway, I already have a part of the divine essence in my hands. As long as I gain more control, I can naturally guide the changes in destiny..."

"So now I can't afford to be reckless. I need to honestly follow my own plan to improve my strength and then gradually master the divine status."

"Fate is not something I should be interfering with or thinking about solutions to right now."

"Even now that I have observed the maxims of destiny, it is merely an improvement in my understanding."

After preparing himself mentally, Nems began his own inspection.

I rode my horse and roughly surveyed the main roads in the north and south districts.

It's getting late.

Nemus slowly glanced at the results of the six paladin teams today. Most of them had only caught some petty thieves, which were not major problems.

Firstly, everyone in Baiwei Town is giving them face, but secondly, the Holy Knights aren't giving them much face.

They wouldn't disobey Nemus's orders, but they wouldn't actually fight anyone for those orders.

This is normal.

"Also, Datmenley's tricks should be coming soon." Nemus struck first, eliminating the Black Viper and immediately subduing Daros.

If Daros hadn't reacted quickly, he might have been able to inflict minor injuries on his opponent and force him to retreat temporarily.

This caught the Dartmenley family off guard, but almost an entire afternoon had already passed.

The Dartmanley family is ready again. If they weren't ready, they would have remained just that—a family that would never amount to anything.

They will then use both overt and covert tactics to get to your doorstep.

Sure enough, Nems had just returned to the vicinity of the church, preparing to have Kru take him to his lodgings.

There were already people waiting on the sidelines for quite some time.

"Young Master is back, and he's even become a Grand Knight. How can he still be living in a cramped room in the church?"

“We have already prepared a house for the young master.”

"In addition, the head of the family has prepared food and is waiting for Young Master Nair to attend the banquet."

The man, dressed as a waiter, was none other than the Dartmanley family's butler.

The other person was not particularly tall or strong, and his physical abilities were not apparent, but to become a nobleman's butler, he must possess a certain level of extraordinary strength.

If it's not on the life side, then it must be on the soul side?

"Is he a wizard? Or some other spellcasting profession?" Nemus made a slight guess in his mind, and at the same time gave his answer: "I am not what you call a young master, and according to the rules of paladins, paladins should live in the church and maintain their training and study while upholding the doctrines of God!"

"Are you trying to frame me, to make me, a great knight, lead the way in breaking the rules?!"

“Young Master, you misunderstand.” The butler smiled slightly, showing no emotional fluctuation despite Naim’s refusal: “The accommodations inside the church have not yet been prepared, so it is normal to rest outside for the night.”

"Furthermore, this invitation from the family elders is also to introduce Lord Nair to someone who is of great importance to you."

"Young Master Nair probably doesn't know that you have a younger sister."

"That is, Miss Sissi."

Upon hearing this news, Nems narrowed his eyes.

coming!
