Chapter 601-100- The Truth of Reincarnation
Sometimes, silence is the most meaningful answer.
Looking at the Guardian Staff that remained silent in response to her joke, Charlotte felt a turmoil in her heart, and even had a vague sense of creepiness.
The Holy Book of Blood can help Charlotte travel through history and fill in the "blanks" in history, and Rowena's diary and memories show that before Charlotte traveled through time, Lilith and the vampires reincarnated again and again, hoping to break the shackles of fate that were destined to be broken.
But Charlotte never thought of a question.
As a time traveler, has she ever been "reincarnated" like Lilith?
Is this her first time traveling into this world?
No.
This is a difficult question to answer and difficult to prove.
Rowena's memory fragments showed that this world had been reincarnated countless times, but Charlotte did not appear in any of those reincarnations, or rather... it was the reincarnation of the world before Charlotte traveled to this world.
That was why Charlotte naturally thought that this was her first time traveling through time.
But...what if this isn't her first time traveling through time?
What if what she is experiencing now is also history that has happened?
Perhaps she occasionally had such a thought, but Charlotte just smiled it off.
After all, as a time traveler and the owner of the Holy Book of Blood, this aura of a novel protagonist endowed her with too much uniqueness and expectation.
Charlotte instinctively believes that she is unique, that the time she is in is the "present", and that what she is doing is traveling through the "past" to fill in the blanks of history...
But what if it isn’t?
The silence of the Guarding Staff, and its prophetic yet secretive look, may be the best answer to this question.
Charlotte recalled the scenes of the destruction of the world in Rowena's memory fragments.
Her expression gradually became complicated.
Obviously, if this wasn’t her first time traveling through time, and if what she was experiencing now was also “history” that had happened before…
Then... in the "future" of the past, she might have failed as well.
"So, this is the first time I've met you?"
Charlotte asked after a moment's silence.
The Guardian Staff was slightly stunned, and after hesitating for a moment, he sighed:
"It should be... the second time."
"should?"
Summer is over.
"At least... that's how I remember it."
The Guardian Staff answered carefully.
"Haha, now you are much more honest."
Charlotte sneered.
"Even if I'm not honest with you about this issue, you will eventually realize it yourself. All I need to do is try to avoid any additional variables before the real end."
"An additional variable? So, this is why you keep beating around the bush and hiding things?"
Charlotte asked.
The Guardian Staff bowed respectfully and did not answer.
Summer solstice.
She rubbed her temple and said:
"So, I have failed at least once, right? Am I actually walking on the road of history now?"
"..."
"What was my end? Did I fail in my fight with Helios?"
"..."
"What do you mean by deceiving history? Does Harald know all this? Or... is this Harald's doing?"
"..."
Looking at the silent guardian staff, Charlotte became a little impatient.
She took a deep breath, calmed down her annoyance due to the lack of response, and said coldly:
"Guardian Staff, you'd better tell me everything I want to know, if... you still want me to cooperate with you."
The Guarding Staff was slightly startled, with a complicated expression.
After a moment's silence, it sighed:
"Sure enough, even after starting over again, your personality hasn't changed..."
"Your Majesty, if you really want to know, I'm afraid I can only tell you part of the truth..."
"Part of the truth?"
Charlotte frowned slightly.
After a brief pause, she nodded:
"You say it."
The Guardian Staff bowed and his expression became serious:
"In that case... I will start answering your first question."
"Your Majesty, this is not the first time you have experienced what happened today. What we are experiencing now is indeed history that has already happened."
"This is not your first return. In your last reincarnation, you have already awakened once. You inherited Castel, became the Queen of Fallen Stars, and subdued the vampires who betrayed you..."
“These are things that have already happened.”
"Not only that, we are still walking in the destined history. You still received the invitation from the Theocracy as in the past, although it was much earlier than last time. You still came to the Holy City, and your followers still discovered the secret of the Ninth District. You still plan to save the witch who is about to be judged, just like you did in the past..."
"Wait, but didn't you direct this?"
Summer season.
"You're right. I was indeed the one pushing for it. After all...if I hadn't pushed for it, history might have changed. Just like this time, the change of leadership in the Theocracy was earlier than the last time I remembered."
"History cannot be changed, so history will not tolerate 'variables'. All 'variables' will be corrected. That's why... I must guide you to avoid these additional 'variables'!"
The Guardian Staff replied.
"An additional variable? But if that's the case, aren't you worried that it will end up the same way?"
Charlotte frowned.
"no, I can not."
The Guardian Staff shook his head:
"The origin of the world has begun to change. In the history that we cannot observe, 'variables'... have begun to appear, and have appeared at least three times."
"three times?"
"Yes, I have no idea what the 'variables' are, nor can I observe why problems would arise in history that has already happened, but I believe that these 'variables' must be related to you, and I must ensure that these 'variables' will not affect the history that is happening now. In other words... I must ensure that you continue to act according to past history."
"As for the rest..."
The Guardian Staff looked at Charlotte and bowed respectfully again:
"It depends on you."
It's up to me?
You want everything that is happening now to develop according to history, but you still want to depend on me?
How is this different from parents wanting their children with poor academic performance to get full marks, but not wanting to change their children's learning patterns? !
Charlotte had to hold back from complaining.
However, she soon noticed some words in the Guardian Staff...
and many more……
Are there "variables" in the history that has already happened?
Or... three times? Is it related to her?
Charlotte's heart moved and she fell into deep thought.
History cannot be changed.
These are the words Lilith left for her.
However, Charlotte herself is certain that although history cannot be changed, the broken history can be rewritten.
In other words... "non-existent" history can be filled in and recreated.
The Guardian Staff just mentioned that there have been three "variables" in the history that has happened.
And she herself traveled through history to fill in the gaps in history... three times.
Coincidence?
No, this is definitely not a coincidence.
Perhaps... the "variable" mentioned by the Guardian Staff is exactly the filling of the blank in history by her!
Charlotte's heart moved and she suddenly had many associations.
Yes.
History cannot be changed.
But history can be made.
Filling the gaps in history is itself a kind of creation!
And according to the Guardian Staff, even if the outcome is the same, different processes will ultimately produce different variables.
Even if this variable cannot affect anything now, it will play a role at a critical moment.
At this moment, Charlotte felt that she was vaguely aware of what the Guardian Staff was doing.
It's probably covering up.
Covering up the "variables" that appeared after Charlotte "made history" and deceiving the "history" that is happening.
Until the end comes, Charlotte's "creation" of history and the gathered "variables" ignite a prairie fire and ultimately change the predetermined future!
This also led Charlotte to further guess and judge:
Obviously, in the history of the last reincarnation mentioned by the Guardian Staff, the previous "Charlotte" probably did not travel back in time to fill in the history like she does now.
"It seems... you have realized what I am doing."
Seeing Charlotte's expression changing from moody to cheerful, which finally returned to calm after a moment's change, the Guardian Staff said respectfully.
Charlotte was noncommittal.
She glanced at him and said calmly:
"You haven't answered the rest of my questions. Since this is history that has already happened, then what was my ending in the history you experienced? Was all this Harald's plan?"
The Guardian Staff looked apologetic:
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I can't answer your last question... Please understand that many times, the answer is a variable."
"But what you told me today, isn't it considered a 'variable'? Why should we hide it?"
Charlotte asked.
"There are different variables. Some variables will not affect history, but some variables may cause us to lose all our previous efforts. I am just a divine tool that guides you and assists you. What I know is limited, and many of these limited memories are very sensitive."
The Guardian Staff sighed.
After saying that, it looked at Charlotte again and continued:
"However, I can answer your other question."
"In the last reincarnation, I did not see your ending. Not only that, no one saw the final ending..."
"What does it mean?"
Summer season.
The Guardian Staff shook his head:
"I don't know. Perhaps history was destroyed by some incomprehensible existence, resulting in a blank. Or perhaps... there was no end at all."
"Or maybe, before you realized that you would eventually fail, you had already decided to restart and look for a possible future in a new cycle."
"But no matter what, there is only one thing that is certain, that is, in the last reincarnation, even if you tried your best, even if you made every possible preparation, even if you combined all possible forces, you still had no chance of winning."
"You will eventually fall, all gods will eventually fall, the world is doomed to be destroyed, and all transcendence is doomed to return to the origin of nothingness..."
"And this time..."
The Guardian Staff paused for a moment and sighed:
"I'm afraid this is our last chance."
