Chapter 1070 Kira☆Kira Memorial Day

Hao Ren had relived ten thousand years in distorted spacetime. However, because the time inside and outside the sandbox was not equivalent, and Raven 12345 had adjusted the system timeline, it seemed to those outside that Hao Ren had only been gone for a few months. So, when Hao Ren and Vivian returned, everyone was naturally joyful at the reunion. However, for a group of old monsters with extremely long lifespans, what was even more worth celebrating was the resolution of the world crisis. Vivian had successfully returned, the process of historical distortion and overwriting had been completely stopped, and it sounded like the problem of the evil spirit and the pollution of Vivian's soul had also been resolved. So many good news stories emerged one after another, causing Lily to gleefully announce that today would be designated "Super Invincible Save-the-World Kira☆Kira Memorial Day," and she suggested a big feast to celebrate…

First of all, Hao Ren suspected that this dog girl would call on everyone to have a big meal to celebrate even if she couldn't find a reason, because she just wanted to eat and drink as much as she could. Secondly, Hao Ren was very curious about how that asterisk appeared in the name of this messy memorial day…

After everyone's excitement had finally subsided, Hao Ren and Vivian finally had a chance to break through the encirclement. But Gunny stubbornly followed closely. The cat girl rubbed against Hao Ren, sniffing vigorously with her nose, her face full of dazed expressions from beginning to end: "Meow? Meow meow meow?"

Hao Ren couldn't help but feel a little touched when he saw this silly cat's behavior. He thought that although this cat usually looked arrogant and mindless, in the end, she still cared about her master. But Nangong Sanba bluntly revealed the truth: "Don't be touched. She's just surprised that you're actually alive. This cat hasn't seen you for three months and firmly believes that you're dead. She won't listen to anyone, because she can't understand what historical backtracking is…"

Hao Ren: "... Damn, I suddenly want to eat cat!"

Nangong Sanba quickly tried to remedy the situation: "Ahem, don't be angry. She cried for a while when she first thought you were dead, although after crying she clamored to divide up the luggage…"

In all fairness, his remedy was the same as no remedy.

Hao Ren grabbed Gunny's ears and (with just the right amount of force) pulled them, causing the cat demon, whose way of thinking was always different from ordinary people, to let out a series of panicked and dazed "Meow" sounds. He said fiercely to her: "I'll teach you a lesson when we get back!"

Then he saw Raven 12345 walking towards him with a lifeless expression. Behind the goddess, a light was gradually dissipating, as if someone had just left.

Hao Ren thought that he should take the initiative to greet his boss, so he waved his hand: "Boss, I didn't fail my mission. I successfully…"

Raven 12345 interrupted him before he could finish: "Hao Ren, come here. I have something to tell you."

Hao Ren had never seen such a complex expression on her face, and he immediately became nervous. Vivian, Hesperia, and the others beside him also seemed to realize that something was about to happen, so they couldn't help but gather around—Raven 12345 didn't say anything about this, seemingly not opposed.

"What's wrong?" Hao Ren asked with a frown, feeling slightly nervous because he thought of the cause of this incident. "Could it be that the higher-ups are holding us accountable for the accident caused by Vivian?"

As soon as he said this, everyone became nervous. Hesperia couldn't help but say: "Goddess, we have to be reasonable. Lady Vivian didn't do it on purpose…"

Raven 12345 waved her hand to interrupt Hesperia: "You're overthinking it. The higher-ups aren't that petty. Although this incident did cause a lot of trouble, the main responsibility isn't Vivian's, and even if she were held responsible, she couldn't bear it. What I want to say is something else."

Hao Ren couldn't help but swallow: "What happened?"

"First of all, a very serious and vicious incident," Raven 12345's solemn tone and sorrowful expression made everyone's heart clench. He only heard her slowly say, "Alas… I lost my performance bonus this year, and I didn't get the Advanced Goddess award."

Everyone: "…"

Hao Ren thought for a moment: "Boss, let's be honest—isn't this normal?"

"Damn you, I knew you would react like this! I tried so hard to create such a serious atmosphere, can't you cooperate and express some sympathy!"

Hao Ren rolled his eyes helplessly: "Okay, okay, I express my deepest condolences, okay? Knowing you, I'm sure there's more to it than that. What else is there?"

Raven 12345 sighed: "There's also a small matter. The divine being corresponding to the Creation Goddess has been found."

Hao Ren almost jumped up: "Damn, that's the main point, okay! What is the origin of the Creation Goddess? Is it really a lost power of some big shot from above? Or a clone or something?"

His questions popped out one after another. The surrounding companions also showed surprised and curious expressions. News about the Creation Goddess had always been the focus of everyone's attention. Even Hesperia and Hasson, who didn't know much about the Dream Plane, widened their eyes.

"I just received the news," Raven 12345 nodded. "I said before that the Creation Goddess is very likely related to several big shots at the top, but the investigation in this area has always been stalled until recently. We conducted a joint investigation with the divine system in the neighboring star field. After exchanging information, we finally figured out what happened."

Hao Ren didn't interrupt, waiting for Raven 12345 to continue.

"Among the main gods of the Xiling Divine System, there is a very special god. You should have heard her name—she is in charge of the power of Holy Light and is the guardian of hunters, warriors, combat priests, and other combat forces. She has many titles and often changes them according to her mood. Among her commonly used titles, one is Dark Valkyrie…"

Hao Ren instantly thought of where he had heard this name: "Dark Valkyrie Ibdhis? Anthony J. Alfonso seems to worship her!"

"Ah, right, Anthony worships the Dark Valkyrie," Raven 12345 stroked her chin and nodded. "I almost forgot."

Hao Ren sized up his female boss with a great sense of incongruity: "Honestly, you're a goddess and your Pope worships someone else… doesn't that feel wrong?"

Raven 12345 thought for a moment: "Not really. And to be honest, I'm already surprised that there are people among my Popes who actually believe in me."

"... Your self-awareness has deeply shocked me. Let's talk about serious matters. If this topic continues, I feel like I'm about to lose my faith."

"Okay, let's continue to introduce this Dark Valkyrie," Raven 12345 waved her hand. "She is very, very special. Originally, she was a star field god, and she had a good relationship with our Xiling a long, long time ago—back when the Xiling Apostles were not even gods. About ten thousand years ago, this Valkyrie cooperated with our boss to carry out an operation. As a result, an accident occurred during the operation. To cut a long story short, she joined the Xiling Divine System and later became the main mother of the Xiling Divine System, becoming a goddess with both Xiling and star field divine status. Another special thing about her is her divine duty. She was originally a dark god, but the power she wields is Holy Light, so strictly speaking, she is a goddess of light…"

Hearing this, Lily couldn't help but ask: "Why?"

"It is said that she chose the wrong major when she was in school, and then the Holy Light Seminary deducted her student status in order to grab students, forcibly turning a dark god into a goddess of light."

Everyone said in unison: "Damn, is that even possible?!"

"What's impossible? I studied arcane magic back then, and I'm still practicing both magic and martial arts, aren't I?"

Hao Ren thought that the fact that this guy tricked someone out of a knife and then got beaten on the head every now and then could hardly be considered practicing both magic and martial arts, but he didn't dare to say it…

"Ahem, in short, this 'Dark Valkyrie' is such an awesome person with a life full of ups and downs. There are too many special things about her to talk about, so let's stop here for now. The key now is why the Creation Goddess is related to her—by consulting the files from the star field, we found that this Dark Valkyrie visited a native universe nearly 100 million years ago. The data of that native universe is highly similar to the Dream Plane… Let me be clear, it is the Dream Plane."

Hao Ren narrowed his eyes: Here comes the point.

"At that time, she participated in a war against the Abyss as a member of the Star Field Expeditionary Force," Raven 12345 continued. Noticing that everyone except Hao Ren was a little confused, she explained a few more words. "The Abyss is a destructive phenomenon in the endless void. It can cause various universes to head towards destruction and data erasure. You don't need to grasp the specific concepts in this regard. Just understand it roughly. In short, in order to maintain the diversity of universes and civilizations, the major divine systems will regularly organize expeditions to clear the Abyss phenomena in various parts of the void, ensuring the safety of the mortal world. At that time, Mother Ibdhis was a member of such an expeditionary force—the specific situation is unknown, but it is certain that she was injured in that battle and took a short rest in the Dream Plane universe at that time."

Hao Ren asked curiously: "Then she created the Creation Goddess?"

"No, she didn't create the Creation Goddess, but she shed a drop of blood—and didn't recover it afterward."

"…"

Hao Ren was stunned for a long time before he finally understood: "Wait, are you saying—the Creation Goddess was transformed from that drop of blood?!"

Raven 12345 nodded slightly.

"Just a drop of blood?!" Lily's eyes widened. "Oh my god, doesn't that mean you gods live very tiring lives? If you accidentally drop some dregs from your body, you have to think about whether it will suddenly become a god or something… Ah, do you have periods?"

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone was shocked. The husky spirit's thinking was terrifying.

Even Raven 12345 was stunned…

But after all, the goddess had seen a lot and knew a lot, so she quickly adjusted her state: "Ahem, normally there is no such setting, but if you want to experience it when you have nothing to do, you can… That's not the point. Your worries are unnecessary. Although the things separated from the gods do have powerful power, normally there will be no such out-of-control situation, because all our power is in a highly controllable state, but there are always exceptions… For example, suffering special damage that causes us to lose contact with part of our own power, for example, the proportion of power separated from the body exceeds a certain threshold, for example, wanting to do something stupid when you have nothing to do. And Mother Ibdhis' situation back then belonged to the first type: because she was injured in the battle with the Abyss, she lost contact with that drop of blood she lost. In fact, she didn't even know she shed a drop of blood… You can guess what happened next."
