Chapter 548 - Chapter 548: Chapter 505 Continent Boiling (5K)_2 (2/2)

Struck by lightning, Moter could finally confirm today that his past life was indeed the first Family Head of the Fischer family, Lucius Fischer!

The legendary ancestor who sacrificed himself a hundred years ago to continue the family legacy!

He felt it was absurd. Although his personality shared similarities with Lucius as recorded, there were also many discrepancies.

After a long silence, Moter instinctively asked, “Andersen, who or what exactly is that? I’ve often heard of it. Many people shout in the Spirit Realm after dying and waking up again that they are Andersen.”

Hecate began to explain.

“Andersen is one of the Quasi-gods of the Claud World, sealed by the Gods because of the possibility of becoming a God. When the Spirit Realm appeared a hundred years ago, it became a… no, not quite, it should say a kind of…’Parasite.'”

Parasite?

Moter was stunned for a moment, not expecting such an answer.

Hecate nodded, a mysterious smile on her face, “If a person dies in the Spirit Realm, then their soul’s resistance drops to almost zero, and at that time, Andersen can take advantage of their vulnerable state. Afterward, the person repeatedly dreams of Andersen’s life while comatose.”

“And when they wake up, because of experiencing too much in the dreams, they come to believe that they are the Reincarnator of Andersen… with their soul gradually being eroded by the ‘Parasite.’

Moter felt a shiver down his spine, finding it utterly incomprehensible and couldn’t help but ask further, “So, how many times do they dream about Andersen before waking up like that?”

“It’s said that many people in a moment of unconsciousness, live more than one lifetime through dreams… that’s why they are so convinced of their identity as Andersen.”

More than a lifetime’s worth of dreams, no wonder so many people found it hard to distinguish reality from illusion!

Moter felt it was incredibly horrifying, but he quickly shook his head. Rather than those temporary irrelevant matters, the most crucial thing right now was his own situation.

“The person I dreamt about is… Lucius Fischer.”

“Oh? It’s actually Lucius!” Hecate’s eyes lit up for the first time, her face revealing a rare pleased expression.

Moter’s voice was filled with a bitter tremble, “How could I be him? So, am I really still Moter? Or am I just a fragment of him or something? And is it even possible that one day I’ll ‘Awaken’ and revert to being Lucius?”

“How shall I explain this to you? Let’s put it this way, the so-called ‘Awakening’ is definitely impossible because most things apart from the essence of the soul no longer exist,” Hecate said with a smile.

In the dim light, she looked profound and slowly narrated a story, “If a ship has been sailing the seas year after year, day after day, and in the end almost every plank has been replaced, with nothing original left except the ‘keel,’ is that ship that has undergone countless replacements still the same ship?”
