In front of the palace gate, a familiar figure was already waiting there.
Chris had once again returned to her ordinary lolita figure. Even though the flagstones on the ground were beginning to melt due to the high temperature, the gorgeous gauze dress she was wearing remained intact.
When she saw Lucius coming, Chris's face suddenly showed a bright smile:
"Hi! Honey, you came faster than I thought~"
She put her hands behind her back and tilted her head to look at Lucius. Her innocent expression formed a sharp contrast with the surrounding war.
"Is this considered telepathy?"
Lucius looked at Chris's effortless appearance and couldn't help but sigh deeply:
"Are you finally willing to show up?"
"Hey, what are you talking about? Haven't I always been here?"
Chris stuck out her tongue playfully:
"It's just that I didn't expect you to be so proactive~"
She had originally thought that Lucius would not look for her until he had left the palace.
Lucius was in no mood to chat with her, so he got straight to the point:
"What's going on with Plotina?"
"Why did she suddenly experience extraordinary decline?"
Upon hearing this question, a playful smile immediately appeared on Chris's face.
I only heard her nonchalantly joking:
"Hehe, my dear, it's really funny to see you anxious about your little lover."
"I heard everything you said to that little girl in front of her bed just now~"
"What about 'controlling fate' and 'never compromising'? It's so romantic! My heart is melting~"
As Chris spoke, she deliberately made a crazy expression, holding her cheeks with both hands, and little stars twinkled in her eyes.
Lucius: ...
I am speechless.
"but......"
Chris's expression suddenly became serious, with a deep light in her eyes.
"Dear, do you know?"
“The so-called never compromise is actually just refusing to accept the arrangement of fate until it changes its mind and offers you something you can accept.”
She opened her arms as if to embrace the whole world:
"And I have already prepared a price for you that you absolutely cannot refuse."
"What do you mean?"
Lucius frowned.
Chris did not answer directly, but continued:
"First of all, I want to tell you that Plotina has the 'anchor' I left behind."
"Anchor?"
"Yes, it is thanks to her that my divine domain can be projected and manifested on the main material plane."
Chris nodded and pointed to the Mirror Palace that was gradually appearing in the sky:
"And the reason why Plotina experienced the phenomenon of extraordinary decline is because this 'anchor point' was activated."
Lucius:? ? ?
good good!
The murderer has come forward!
My friend, Chris, I will find you sooner or later!
By then, my revenge will be greater than "Hunting"...
Ahem, sorry, I got the wrong channel.
"Chris, you bastard!"
"How could you be so selfish? Why would you do this!?"
Lucius' eyes immediately ignited with flames of anger.
"Look, look! You're misunderstanding me again!"
Facing Lucius's anger, Chris showed an aggrieved expression:
"I've told you so many times that I'm on your side, why don't you believe me?"
She pouted, tears still glistening in her eyes:
"I left the 'anchor' on Plotina precisely to save her."
"?"
"What is this statement?"
Lucius scratched his head, extremely confused by Chris's words.
How can this guy who loves to play with other people's fate have the nerve to talk about saving others?
"You think it's weird, right?"
Chris folded her arms across her chest and said in a serious tone:
"Then let me tell you the truth."
"The reason why Plotina's original fate ended so early had nothing to do with me."
"She died young simply because she held an incomplete cornerstone authority."
"You should be familiar with what cornerstone authority is, right?"
"Ok, I know."
Lucius nodded.
After all, he had already witnessed the full form of this authority [Unbounded Consciousness].
“To have complete authority is a blessing, but incomplete authority is poison.”
Chris explained patiently:
"Because complete authority can draw strength from the world itself, but incomplete authority can only seek power from the holder himself."
"And your little lover is so weak that he can't bear the consumption of power at all."
"If you want to save her, there are only two ways."
"Or I can give up this authority early. Although I will become a complete mortal, at least I can live a healthy life."
"Or, perfect authority."
"Unfortunately, Plotina has become too deeply bound to this authority, so she only has one choice left."
Hearing this, Lucius was still a little confused:
"But what does all this have to do with you leaving an 'anchor' on Plotina?"
"Hee hee~"
Chris gave an extremely smug smile.
She raised her hand, displaying the divine realm that gradually emerged behind her:
"My dear, what do you think of this ritual that is going on?"
"Not only can it project my divine domain onto the main material plane, it can also allow ordinary people to instantly possess power comparable to that of the Supreme Heavenly Demon."
"You said, if this immense power were poured into a single authority..."
"Is it possible to perfect this authority?"
Lucius:!!!
I'm fun!
I will take back all the slander I made against you!

PS: Alas, this chapter is a very important and key chapter. It took me a lot of time to write it, so I can only write 6k words for now.
Chapter 125: 120-You and Chris died together (7500)
I, Lucius, have never slandered Destiny in reality or in simulation. I am actually a loyal and reliable colleague of Destiny in the Most High Heaven.
I often study [fate] and pay attention to [fate] for a long time. I believe that [fate] is the true supreme being in the highest heaven.
I hereby solemnly promise that I will never say anything bad about [fate] again. If there is any problem with [fate], it must be my problem.
......
Chris looked at the shocked expression on Lucius's face and couldn't help but smile even more smugly.
She spun around briskly, and the light emitted by the Mirror Palace in the sky became more eerie and beautiful.
"How's that? Doesn't it sound perfect?"
Chris put her hands on her hips, raised her chin slightly, and looked like she was asking for praise:
"Hehe, there's something even more perfect!"
"As long as Plotina's authority is complete and perfected, the process of my divine domain's descent will be forced to cease."
"In this way, not only will you be able to personally rescue your lover, but you will also naturally become an unshakable hero in the eyes of the people, fighting against the Supreme Heaven!"
She opened her arms, as if sketching a magnificent future for Lucius:
“Just imagine!”
"Lucius Turaianus Clovis, the savior of the empire, the hero who prevented the advent of the Supreme Evil God!"
"Poets will write hymns to you, historians will record your achievements, and the people will regard you as their patron saint..."
“What a wonderful ending!”
“Everyone is happy, everything is perfect!”
Chris spoke with great joy, and her eyes seemed to reflect that beautiful future.
However, Lucius was not fooled by her words.
He slowly turned around and cast a deep gaze at Splenda, who was now in chaos.
Buildings in the distance were burning in the flames of war, orange-red flames licking the walls, and thick smoke billowing up, dyeing the sky an ominous dark red.
The roar of explosions came one after another, mixed in with the almost desperate battle roars between the extraordinary people and the demons, as if the whole city was wailing.
This great city, which had never fallen during the Burning Crusade and was the heart of the empire that had witnessed countless glorious histories, was now facing such a catastrophe for the first time.
Lucius could imagine that at this moment, countless innocent people were hiding in the ruins, trembling in fear, their homes destroyed and their lives threatened...
This seemingly harmless girl in front of him may not have caused all this, but at least she should take the blame.
"Chrissy."
Lucius' voice was calm. He didn't turn around, still gazing at the city in chaos.
"Let me ask you a question."
"Huh? What's the problem?"
Chris tilted her head and blinked innocently.
She didn't seem to notice the change in Lucius's tone, or rather, she didn't care at all.
"Why did you choose to help Plotina?"
