518 The Mysterious Experts Identity (1/2)
The situation was serious enough to prevent any distraction, but Yale couldn't avoid being expectant about if the Mysterious Expert would reveal its identity or not.
After all, Yale had known about the existence of the Mysterious Expert for a lot of time, but he had never managed to deduce its true identity.
”Alright, I will tell you, but my existence will be erased soon, so I don't know if you will be able to remember about my identity or not. Well, maybe you will be able to it.”
Since the Mysterious Expert already decided to tell Yale the truth, there was no reason to delay it more time.
Moreover, the Mysterious Expert knew that given the power of the Existence Eraser, there was no way to last too long blocking it.
”First, you need to know that I don't have a name because from the start someone like me shouldn't have existed.”
Yale wasn't able to understand why someone shouldn't exist, but he continued to listen in silence.
”At the start, I was merely a will created from the resentment created by this war. The despair of the dead people, their unfulfilled wishes, their hopes for a future that didn't have a chance a to happen, and a lot of other emotions were what created me, but at that time I didn't have a consciousness. I just existed as a will that supposedly no one could see, but someday that changed...”
Yale had difficulties to believe that story because the fact of such a powerful expert being born from the dead people in the war wasn't something that could happen as far as Yale know.
”Our universe had already fallen in dire straits, and it was almost destroyed. The few survivors, they battled with all their strength to survive, but the situation was too dire to change it at that point.”
What the Mysterious Expert was telling didn't match with the story Yale knew about the universe, but that time, Yale understood the reason for it. After all, the Mysterious Expert was also a Timeless Sovereign, so Yale could guess that the Mysterious Expert did something to undo that part of the story.
”The first person to notice about my existence was part of a group of five that were battling against an army that they couldn't defeat. I can't remember who of the five noticed me first, nor what led them to make the decision that they made.”
Yale felt that the Mysterious Expert was already reaching the most important part of the story.
”The five of them offered their existences to me using the power of the legacies they owned, and thanks to that, I obtained a body that was born directly as a sixth level immortal. That was also the first moment I obtained a consciousness.”
Yale was flabbergasted after learning that the Mysterious Expert was already born being that powerful, and at the same time, he understood why the Mysterious Expert existed despite its origins as a mere will.
There was no doubt that was thanks to the five who sacrificed offering their existences.
”The first thing I did was exterminate that army. After all, I also obtained the memories and feelings of those five, and my original existence also had a boundless hatred against them.”
A sixth level immortal was devastating without any other sixth level immortal, so it wasn't difficult to imagine the outcome of that battle after a sixth level immortal appeared.
”Who were those five?”
That was the first time Yale interrupted the Mysterious Expert, but after hearing the number five and the word legacy, he had a feeling that he knew who were those five.
”Those five who sacrificed themselves to let me become a real existence were Aknarel, Shiba, Lina, Gerken, and you.”
The Mysterious Expert just confirmed what Yale had been thinking. The legacy that helped to create the Mysterious Expert was the universe creator's legacy, the same one that had just disappeared to protect Yale.
Moreover, just as Yale thought, the owners of the pieces were the same he knew.
”After killing that army, I wanted to change everything and create a different future, which ended up with me becoming a Timeless Sovereign after traveling to the past. However, undoing that war also undid my own reason to exist, so my existence became unstable, and I could only exist as an incarnation that shouldn't leave the universe from that moment on.”
The Mysterious Expert continued with the story without waiting to Yale's reaction after revealing the identities of the five who sacrificed themselves.
