Chapter 1240: 396. You haven’t time-traveled_2

The Scroll Angel paused:

“As for your crossing… I regret to say, you actually didn’t cross over.”

“I didn’t cross over? What do you mean?” Noland Lee asked.

But the Scroll Angel responded with a seemingly unrelated point, speaking to the Assassin Angel:

“When I first noticed the successive disappearances of other angels, I prepared myself for unexpected misfortune.

“Within the Star Palace, the Dragon Clan has always been like ‘architects.’ No matter what happens, the repair and reconstruction of the Star Palace cannot do without them.

“Therefore, I specifically sought out Nyrephale, the White Ancestral Dragon, hoping it would safeguard a portion of my soul. That way, if I were confined to Outer Space, Nyrephale might still be able to find an opportunity to enter the Inner Cosmos and secretly resurrect me, restoring my extraordinary powers.”

“This plan ultimately succeeded, though the process was extremely convoluted. As all the angels around me left, the Star God had to personally imprison me. He quickly noticed the absence in my soul and knew I had a backup plan. Thus, He decisively crushed the remnant soul I left in my original vessel. I met my own death.”

The Scroll Angel gestured, projecting a rainbow light screen around everyone.

The screen displayed an image.

It was from years ago, when Noland Lee, in the Underground Tomb, used the Rune Staff to help the soul of “Noland Lee Jarvis” find salvation.

Back then, Noland Lee inscribed an Undead Rune on the Original Master’s soul with the Rune Staff, and somehow shattered the shackles that the Undead Cult had placed on the Original Master’s soul, allowing him to ascend successfully into a cluster of rainbow clouds.

The Scroll Angel said:

“About four years ago, Nyrephale began to resurrect me in cooperation with the ‘Wizard’ Plane Core. Nyrephale chose Noland Lee Jarvis of the Tatis Empire as my rebirth vessel, allowing the ‘Wizard’ Plane Core to place both me and my pre-prepared Deconstruction Core System into that body. My memories merged with Noland Lee Jarvis’s, intertwining our souls.

“In the destiny that Nyrephale wrote for me, I was framed and lost my life, became a Vengeful Spirit in the tomb of the Undead Cult, and then this Mortal helped me with a Rune Staff, successfully completing the simplest Ascension Ceremony and regaining the extraordinary powers of an angel.”

The Scroll Angel looked at Noland Lee and said:

“According to my original plan, the moment I ascended into the Rainbow Light Cluster, I would have taken back the Deconstruction Core System, and you would have lost the System’s help, becoming a true Mortal. But I had a change of heart, and I left the System with you.”

“So now you want to take it back, right?” Noland Lee asked again:

“Who am I, exactly?”
