“Have you heard of the terminus?” “That Path that claims to be able to foresee the future and see through destiny?
Oh, I know it.
And then?” Bayle thought for a moment and countered, “I’ve already said as much, isn’t it obvious?” Ms.
Herta tilted her head.
“Are you here to waste my time?” Ms.
Herta looked at the fellow in front of her who was practically marinated in the flavor of Nihility, unable to see how he could possibly relate to the terminus.
“Although you might not believe it, I did indeed see some of the future.
Hmm…
do you know Elio?” “The self-proclaimed slave of destiny, a member of the Stellaron Hunters.
His bounty is so high that even I have heard of it.” Ms.
Herta calmly summarized Elio’s profile, her scrutinizing gaze falling on Bayle.
Bayle nodded slightly.
“I’m sure Ms.
Herta knows very well that it is perfectly normal for Paths to intersect.
Just because I can walk the Path of Nihility does not mean I am unrelated to the terminus.” Ms.
Herta didn’t speak.
What Bayle said wasn’t unreasonable, but…
only slightly.
Furthermore, Pathstriders who walk far on the Path of Nihility are generally either crazy or insane, or they fall into an infinite cycle of doubt and self-Negation.
It was, however, the first time seeing such a living, seemingly problem-free Pathstrider of Nihility.
Interesting…
The Path of Nihility itself does not produce Emanators; it is common knowledge that the Aeon of Nihility never glances at anyone.
Yet, the aura on the person in front of her was indeed at the level of an Emanator.
Could it be that he has a way to deal with Nihility?
Ms.
Herta was curious about this aspect.
“I’ve said so much, yet I haven’t introduced myself.
My name is Bayle, a perfectly ordinary Pathstrider of the terminus.” “Your whole body is practically overflowing with the aura of Nihility that you can’t even suppress.
An Emanator of Nihility claiming to be a Pathstrider of the terminus?
Who would believe that?” Ms.
Herta said mercilessly.
Bayle just smiled lightly.
“Then, does the genius lady believe me now?” “Tch…” Ms.
Herta didn’t retort; whether she believed him or not didn’t matter anymore.
An Emanator had no need to make up such nonsense to deceive her.
Or perhaps, whether he was a Pathstrider of the terminus didn’t matter, because Ms.
Herta had ten thousand ways to verify the truth of his words.
She scrutinized Bayle and said, “Now, get to the point.
You aren’t just here at the Herta Space Station to waste this genius’s time because you have nothing better to do, right?” “Of course.” Bayle was just about to tactfully mention something about Amphoreus to Ms.
Herta when he saw the little Ms.
Herta puppet in front of him suddenly shut down.
Bayle: “…???” “Wait…
weren’t we just chatting perfectly fine???
Why did you suddenly leave???” Bayle tried to communicate with the little Ms.
Herta again.
“Ms.
Herta?
Ms.
Herta?
Are you still there?” Little Ms.
Herta: “I am very unhappy to be at your service.
Please leave a message if you have any business.” Bayle: “What the hell???” Little Ms.
Herta: “I am very unhappy to be at your service.
Please leave a message if you have any business.” [It’s so strange.
Can someone tell me why Ms.
Herta would believe Bayle?
It feels like he’s spouting nonsense.
If it were me, I wouldn’t believe him.] [The main thing is, Bayle didn’t even offer proof.
It’s strange; this doesn’t align with the Genius Society’s way of thinking.
What exactly convinced her!!
I don’t understand!!!] [The person involved, come out and explain!] “Actually, it’s quite simple.” Seeing that Ms.
Herta had started giving automatic replies, Bayle guessed that her main body must have encountered something, so she didn’t have time to deal with him for the moment.
Seeing that the barrage was already in an uproar, he found a place to sit down, leaned back in his chair, and kindly explained to the barrage.
“She didn’t believe me.” [Oh, so that’s how it is.] [Huh???
What the hell???
Human evolution didn’t include me?
Why can you understand it but I can’t?
I refuse to accept this!
I’m not watching anymore, request to restart!] [Seconded!] [Let’s restart!
It’s boring!
Things that even I can’t understand have no meaning for Existence.] Bayle: “…?” Wait…
hold on, what the hell?
“No, are you guys sick?
If you can’t understand, can’t you just go find a wall to bang your heads against?
What does that have to do with me?” [Damn it…] [I refuse to accept this.] Bayle almost laughed in anger: “Are you the ones carrying out the mission, or am I?
Does it benefit you if I fail the mission?” [Actually, it doesn’t really have much to do with us.] [Wait, stop, stop, stop…] [What are you guys doing?
Why are you causing a scene?
If you don’t want to watch, I still do.] [Do you think this is your personal domain?
You say you won’t watch, so you won’t watch?
Who do you think you are?
If you like it, watch; if not, get lost!] [Bayle, don’t mind it.
Those few just now were just joking with you.] [Exactly, exactly, buddy, don’t take it to heart.] [Alright, alright, we’re all not petty people.
You won’t mind, right?
Bayle.] Bayle was silent for two seconds, then suddenly chuckled: “A joke, right…
Fine, of course I don’t mind.
How could I mind?
Isn’t it just a joke?” [That’s more like it~ Come, come, everyone, let’s continue chatting about why Ms.
Herta believed this matter~ Harmony brings wealth, harmony brings wealth~] [xxx tipped 300 points.] Bayle looked at the 300 points and gave a perfunctory smile, but there was no laughter in his eyes.
Fine…
just don’t fall into my hands.
However, it wasn’t the time for a reckoning yet, at least not now.
He thought for a few seconds and explained: “Regarding Ms.
Herta…
hmm, she probably doesn’t care at all whether I am a Pathstrider of the terminus, or rather, it doesn’t matter if I am or not.” Between the System and the barrage, which has higher authority?
Can the System suppress these things?
Although he had only just started to make contact, he was really getting annoyed.
Let’s rephrase…
how high is the status of the System?
An Aeon?
A Creator?
Or something else?
If there’s an opportunity…
He shook his head, throwing these thoughts out of his mind.
Forget it, this isn’t a question he should be thinking about right now…
Meaningless questions, no value in pondering them…
“For Ms.
Herta, it doesn’t matter if I am of the terminus, because she only cares about two things.” “First, I am an Emanator of Nihility; she confirmed this.
Second, whether the information I brought has value.” “As for whether this information comes from a prophecy of the terminus or a story I made up, to her, there’s not much difference.
She has her own ways to verify the truth.
If she didn’t believe it at all, I would have already been kicked out of the Herta Space Station, instead of still being able to chat with you guys here.” [Oh…?
Oh…!
So that’s it!
Ms.
Herta is on a whole different level!!] [Got it.
Steady the person first, then check your water meter later!] [What water meter?] [Nothing, the water meter in my Serenitea Pot.] [As expected of Ms.
Herta, whose IQ crushes the entire universe!
Ms.
Herta is brilliant, Ms.
Herta…
() Ten thousand words omitted here.] [Why do you know so clearly?
I didn’t even guess it, why do you know?] [Are you also a Herta fan?]
