“Or could it be that someone like you that never needs a reason has no choice but to do so?”
After hearing William's question, the smile on Absurdity Jester Valk's face deepened. He clapped his hands, and the entire theater suddenly fell into darkness.
The darkness didn't last long. With two claps, two spotlights landed on the two of them.
Now that they were both on stage, Valk had returned to His exaggerated jester appearance.
William didn't stop the other party or ask about His true goal. He just waited silently.
This was also the reason why he didn't immediately give chase after discovering that the coordinates marked with the Crown of Original Darkness in the ether domain had disappeared. Compared to the divine artifact and the soul fragments, he had more important matters to confirm here.
He wanted to confirm Absurdity Jester's true goal in inviting him to watch this play.
Valk was a genuine lunatic. In a sense, one could say that He was a fool who didn't care about His losses all in the name of fun. He imprisoned the First Demon General under His command for more than 800 years just to mock the former Moon Realm Calamity. Other Void Sovereigns might not be able to do it, but He was fully capable of doing so.
However, on the other hand, the other party was also a pursuer of extreme effects for a show. If what happened in the Astral Lighthouse today was compared to a play, the impact of this play would undoubtedly be an extreme failure.
This drama didn't cause William to break down, cry, or become hysterical.
This was because William had told himself a long time ago that a thousand years had passed. He had to be mentally prepared no matter what happened. This play might have shaken William's heart to a certain extent, but it was still far from breaking through his psychological defense.
On the other hand, William understood Valk's warped sense of humor. If He only wanted to use the matter to mock him, He wouldn't have chosen to tell William the truth now.
At the very least, William had to wait until he reached the Moon Realm and saw the Father of the Crows advance to a complete Void Sovereign with his own eyes. Only then would Valk jump out and tell him about the past, adding a final heavy blow.
Valk told him everything that had happened in the past. Instead of saying that he wanted to mock William, it was better to say that he was giving William a heads-up and letting him be mentally prepared for what would happen in the future.
This was actually helping him.
Absurdity Jester never considered reasons when screwing with others. He did whatever He wanted to do. However, if He was doing something that essentially helped others, William had to confirm the other party's reason.
Valk looked around the stage and asked, “Calamity, how does it feel to change from being an audience to an actor?”
William didn't reply. Instead, he lit the stage as his answer.
Looking at the ignited curtain, not only did Valk not feel any anger, but He also laughed out loud.
“Bravo, bravo! As a candidate, you're a hundred times more interesting than that brat. Hahahahaha…”
Valk laughed until He was out of breath.
“Candidate? What candidate?” William asked with a frown.
“Ah… Then, I should start from the beginning. The will of your loyal subordinate is almost exhausted. As for the former Father of the Crows, after the suppression on him loses effect, he will gradually return to his rightful state. He will just be a step away from turning eternal. As for who will ultimately inherit that power, I have a few old friends who found suitable candidates centuries ago. For this reason, They even proposed an extremely boring plan…”
With that said, the burning curtain suddenly turned into a map of the Vic Continent, and the flames turned into a vortex that circled the Blackwater Province.
Valk jumped in front of the map and pointed at the vortex. He asked William mysteriously, “And this is the condition that the candidate proposed… By the way, do you want to guess what title the 14th Void Sovereign is? I'll give you three chances.”
“King of Hope and Despair,” William replied.
The expression on Valk's face was as awkward as a magician raising the top hat on his left hand to get the attention of the audience, only to have a child below the stage pointing at his right sleeve and shouting, “The rabbit is hiding there.”
A few seconds later, He coughed lightly and replied, “Ahem, that's right. The King of Hope and Despair. Then, do you know what His essence symbolizes? Is He biased toward hope, despair, or both…”
William, who had experienced the Eclipse outcome, interrupted him and said, “The domain He symbolizes isn't hope or despair, but the moment the two switch. Can you quickly get to the point?”
Valk looked even more embarrassed.
After a few seconds, Valk's expression finally returned to its previous cheekiness. He pointed at the map and said, “Hope and despair accompany each other. Pushing mortals immersed in hope into the abyss of despair or illuminating a lighthouse for people in despair is the domain symbolized by the King of Hope and Despair. It's precisely because of this that the brat plans on making the entire Blackwater Province the promised land of the entire Vic Continent. That will be the last of the untainted land for the future plane fusion between the Moon Realm and the Vic Continent. At the same time, it will be the spark that ignites the plane fusion ritual. It will be a push that sends mortals into despair, and it will also be the last beacon of hope after despair descends…”
It was William's turn to be surprised. He widened his eyes and asked, “What did you say?!”
Merging the Vic Continent with the Moon Realm? What kind of novel operation was this?
Regarding this, Valk pretended to accidentally cover His mouth and said in an exaggerated voice, “Ah, why did I let it slip…”
Then, Valk cut the act. He revealed an extremely unhappy expression and said, “You find it unbelievable too, don't you? That group of idiots. As long as the stage exists, the actors and audience will change one after another, and good shows will constantly happen. Yet, They want to burn down this stage to complete Their ideals? It's really difficult to describe Them…”
Valk calmed down and continued, “In short, a few old friends that you and I are very familiar with are backing him. They are betting on him. Once he successfully occupies the Father of the Crows' body, he will quickly begin the ritual to advance to the 14th Void Sovereign. This ascension ritual will greatly speed up the plane fusion ritual.”
“So? Do you plan on stopping Them?” William asked.
Regarding this, Valk threw up His hands helplessly.
“There are too many of Them. I can't defeat Them all.”
However, He continued, “However, before the ascension ritual begins, none of us has the right to interfere with the ritual. Therefore, since They have chosen to bet, I can also place my bets.”
William finally understood what Valk was getting at.
“So you want to bet on me?”
Valk nodded and said, “That's right. It's you. Making the former Moon Realm Calamity the new Void Sovereign. There's probably no funnier joke in the world.”
“There have the numbers,” William warned.
“I've never lost a bet,” the other party replied.
