Chapter 4184 Influencing The Flow Of Fate
"Well," Ellia pursed her lips, "Initially, I just wanted to have big sister Evelynn try the same treatment she did on Clara to them, but I guess it's nearly impossible considering they are way stronger and would mount way more resistance. However, I want to learn the same kind of treatment using Life Laws as a base. Perhaps I could create something, or it could go bust, but either way, aren't these Heaven's Warriors practically death row inmates? After my effort fails, I can try making their physiques into pills. I already have some knowledge of some refining arts that evil, demonic cultivators use. It should be able to cleanse the heaven's influence as long as I try enough..."
Ellia uttered while pondering, but seeing their strange looks, she raised her brows, "What? I think we should be able to experiment on them if we like and make their deaths useful."
Davis looked impressed, "You're certainly the evil counterpart."
"Hehe~" Ellia giggled, "My existence is otherwise known as Myria's evil incarnate."
"Enough of the teasing~" @@novelbin@@
Myria pouted lightly before she reprimanded Ellia, telling her not to seek darkness.
On the other hand, both Davis and Tia were deep in contemplation.
Tia was wondering if she should start practicing this manual since she fulfilled the first requirement. She was a Mystic Diviner, after all.
However, it wasn't like she could practice it easily, considering there was no circulation method written. There were just theories and musings, and the reader was left to form their own interpretations based on them.
Davis was also wondering if he should practice the Heavenly Gambling Records when his heart suddenly sank.
If luck could influence outcomes using a catalyst such as a dice, why couldn't he influence the flow of fate with the same catalysts?
At first, it was nothing but a vague thought, but it quickly gnawed on him and took root in his mind, making him want to test it, or he felt like he would explode.
As Ellia said, the lives of the Heaven's Warriors were there at their disposal. Who told them to invade? He could use them as he pleased since they would kill him if they were given a chance without a doubt.
"Myria, Ellia, and Tia. I'm going to do something so foolish and probably retarded, but do you trust me enough to partake in it?"
"..."
The three of them turned their attention to him. They blinked at him, wondering what kind of idea he got from this manual that appeared like it was written to scam people.
"Of course. Your ideas, whether brilliant or idiotic, got us this far." Myria smiled lightly, "Why wouldn't I trust you with my life at this point? However, be careful not to go overboard. It's not just us."
"I am aware. If it fails, we should be ready to leave for another mini-realm. If not, I would've gained another weapon that I could use for our survival."
"Alright."
Myria nodded.
Ellia and Tia also nodded. They were curious as to what Davis had come up with.
Then, after dealing with a few matters, like removing the traces of the invaders outside the mini-realm and locking them up in a newly created dungeon under a void dust mound, they finally appeared before the awoken Fairy Runalise.
He didn't choose a dice because it wasn't like there was any preordained number to win, and the chances were one in six. Instead, he chose the coin for this reason. High risk and high reward. He could also lose badly and would need to fulfill his part and kill Fairy Runalise.
He was ready to do so.
That was the kind of intent needed to increase the odds in his favor. He needed to accumulate high risk and managed to hold an intense amount of karmic bonds between from all the exchanges they made.
He confirmed it by activating his karmic powers and seeing the threads. The thread he shared with Fairy Runalise was one of hatred, but it had fully taken shape and looked quite solid.
At that point, he imagined he needed no one's consent and let the coin decide the flow of fate in accordance with his intent.
If he had failed, he might have killed Fairy Runalise even if he wanted to back out. Such was the power of fate, or so he figured and made the final coin flip as he unleashed the insight and transformed it into a burst of life, death, and karmic energy, which turned into a strange form of minute energy.
He couldn't even tell if he had unleashed it. He could detect nothing.
After Fairy Runalise left and an hour passed, he was beginning to question if he had made the right decision to gamble, but after seeing Fairy Runalise now keep her mouth shut instead of exposing him and his location, he was completely befuddled and horrified.
He hid his face with his hands, unable to hide the wide grin that wouldn't leave his face.
'This means... I am at the junction where I could finally push the flow of fate slightly to my liking without receiving a great backlash...'
Davis trembled.
For as long as he knew, the bubbles of fate around him always popped and rectified themselves, causing the fates or destinies of so many people to change. He wouldn't have the slightest hand in it, but these bubbles always reacted to him. To be accurate, they reacted to Fallen Heaven, but for the first time ever, he passively managed to change the flow of fate by using a trigger, such as a coin.
How could he not tremble? He was thrilled beyond compare as it opened up many options for him.
However, he quickly calmed himself.
'Don't be stupid, Davis Loret. This one change caused you to almost divulge all secrets and required you to die if you failed. Even if it is the slightest change, it requires you to make a prominent sacrifice and carry immense risk. This is in accordance with what I felt when wanting to feel out this new insight after I reached Immortal King Stage and Immortal Emperor Stage...'
Davis forced his pounding heart to calm and convinced himself that he shouldn't touch this otherworldly power anytime soon.
'Just confirming that I can control such a thing alone is enough and worth it for the moment...'
Davis nodded to himself while Myria, Ellia, and Tia were still full of questions.
Myria could tell that this had something to do with Fallen Heaven, so she didn't ask. Instead, she asked.
"What now? We kill Fairy Runalise or let her live? Just because it happened once doesn't mean she will not expose us in front of another Heaven's Warrior."
Davis dropped his hands and turned to look at her with a bright smile, "Indeed, just because it happened once doesn't mean it will happen again, but that's the interesting part. Let us see what happens next."
"..."
Myria blinked. Had her Davis completely turned into a gambler?
