Chapter 433 Arceus's Chosen One Was Me?
When the creator god appeared high in the sky, Qingyu immediately noticed that the surrounding environment seemed to change as well.
That is something that is difficult to observe with the naked eye, but can be clearly perceived by the mind and body —
Some kind of divine radiance?
Even the proud Sinnoh Trio, upon noticing his figure, immediately lowered their heads and dared not meet his gaze.
but----
Qingyu raised his head and carefully examined Arceus, the radiant creator god who embodied the world, for a while before quickly drawing a conclusion.
Sure enough, this is a "fake".
He didn't have any particular basis for thinking this way; he simply felt that the being in front of him, who showed no emotion and seemed like a heartless machine, was completely different from the Arceus he had imagined.
Arceus isn't my type, so I'm rejecting it outright!
Thus, when the three Sinnoh gods and the Lake Gods all lowered their noble heads and showed humility.
Qingyu took another big step forward.
However, the "Creator God" who was looking down at Qingyu made no comment in the face of his seemingly presumptuous behavior.
Qingyu quickly crossed 999 steps and arrived in front of him.
At this very moment.
Along with Arceus and Qingyu, the entire path leading to the Temple of Origin vanished instantly.
Qingyu seemed to lose consciousness for a moment.
When he opened his eyes again, all he saw was a holy light, as if someone had thrown a flashbang in front of him.
He then immediately closed his eyes again.
At the same time, he roughly guessed where he was.
The Temple of the Beginning is said to be the special space where Arceus was born, and also the place where he eventually fell into slumber.
But in such a light-polluted place, can Arceus really sleep soundly?
As if his surroundings had sensed his thoughts, Qingyu soon felt the light in the outside environment dim considerably.
So I tentatively opened my eyes.
There were no flashbangs this time, but it still gave him a big fright.
In Qingyu's eyes, it was an endless, vast sea of stars.
If it weren't for the tangible feeling of his feet touching the ground and the air entering his lungs with each breath, he probably would have thought that Arceus had banished him to the universe because of his disrespectful thoughts.
Qingyu began to seriously consider what she had done to offend that alpaca, which led him to pull such a stunt at the door.
And it was at this moment—
"As the first guest to visit the Temple of Beginning, your ideas always surprise me."
A mature woman's voice, tinged with helplessness yet containing a hint of amusement, came from the void.
"No need to be nervous. As the starting point of the entire universe, this is the true appearance of the Temple of Origin."
???
Who's talking, bro or sis?
It seems like it can only be Arceus?
Qingyu was a little dumbfounded. He subconsciously looked around, but did not find Arceus.
"Tsk—"
At this moment, he suddenly recalled the abandoned case of unpacking that he had seen before.
Arceus once disguised herself as a human woman, had a romantic relationship with a human, and left behind the image of a widow.
Could it be that...?
It seemed that the creator god had sensed his outrageous ideas, and Qingyu suddenly felt a light tap on his forehead, so he subconsciously covered his forehead.
"I just borrowed the voice of an old friend, thinking it might make you feel closer to them."
"But now it seems like you're not used to it."
"No, no, no, this is fine."
Qingyu immediately waved his hand in the air, confirming his suspicion that this guy was the real deal!
Logically speaking, the alpaca that stands high above, radiating divine light, might actually be more like the real thing.
But Qingyu chose to trust her intuition.
At the same time, another question arose in his mind: "Have we met before?"
Knowing that Arceus could read her mind, Qingyu simply told him directly.
The voice from beyond the world fell silent for a moment.
"You're really perceptive, Aoba."
Although the answer wasn't given directly, it was basically hinted at.
really!
Only then did Qingyu finally confirm her guess.
He actually does have some connection with Arceus!
My own conjecture is actually quite subtle, and could even be described as completely illogical.
But he had already vaguely sensed this when he came to Sinnoh and came into contact with other legendary beings.
Even Cynthia showed some nervousness when she first met Uxie, and the Time Dragons and Giratina were even more so.
But Qingyu couldn't understand this feeling at all.
So, after ruling out the possibility that he had seen them long ago based on their behavior, the answer left for him became quite simple—
Even if he himself might not remember, he must have seen beings above the Lake Gods and the Sinnoh Triads before, which is why he appeared so relaxed when he first faced them.
Clearly, only the creator god Arceus could meet all of the above conditions.
At first it might have been an unrealistic idea, but when he actually saw his clone and made contact with the original body, Qingyu's heart remained completely unmoved.
Even Arceus ignored his many disrespectful thoughts, clearly having long been accustomed to him.
Arceus's answer further confirmed his speculation.
so----
"Although I don't know what happened in the past, my journey to the Pokémon world is probably related to you, Arceus!"
"That's true."
The voice from the void came again, but this time it suddenly raised a question.
"Qingyu, do you think this world meets your expectations for the Pokémon world?"
This time, his voice was noticeably more serious.
Without hesitation, Qingyu replied, "Of course, I think if a world with Pokémon existed, it would be just like it is now, a world where humans and Pokémon can enjoy life together and trust each other."
"----Yeah?"
Arceus's tone seemed to carry a hint of surprise, but also a sense of relief that Qingyu couldn't quite understand.
"Then, as compensation for inviting you into this world."
"It seems your wish has been fulfilled."
???
Clearly, Qingyu did not understand what He meant.
Arceus, however, clearly had no intention of explaining and quickly raised the next question.
"Aoba, why do you think that a world where Pokémon exist is special?"
"Is it possible that the world you perceive as reality is actually the special world that shouldn't exist in the first place?"
This time, Qingyu was truly stunned.
For a fleeting moment, I even felt like my brain was smoking.
Fortunately, Arceus was not a riddle-maker—the riddle-camel—and soon told some stories about "Blue Feather".
"In your mind, I am the creator who created countless parallel universes, and that is indeed the case."
"The world was originally a state of chaos until I descended upon the Temple of the Beginning, where I carved out a space from the chaos, created the first universe, and attempted to establish order and create life."
"All things are born because of me, and the rules of the world are born because of me."
"I am in all things."
"I am the eternal and unchanging one in this world."
After hearing His somewhat melodramatic opening remarks, Qingyu nodded.
In his view, Arceus is indeed the only one in the Pokémon universe who is qualified to say these things.
Seemingly sensing Qingyu's thoughts, Arceus remained silent for a moment before his voice suddenly lost some of its enthusiasm.
"However, I soon grew tired of the unchanging world."
"As long as I exist in this world, the guardians of order will forever follow the rules I have set."
"So, I left the original world."
"And it was because of my one willful act that the world began to change."
"The different choices made by countless lives have led the world to countless unknown futures and possibilities."
"Starting from the universe as the origin, more and more new worlds have blossomed from the chaos, and I, as an observer outside the world, gladly accept this result."
Arceus paused, and Qingyu seized the opportunity to ask her own question.
"So—that's why you left this world?"
"But the timing doesn't seem to match up, does it?"
Arceus did not find his bold question offensive.
Of course, he didn't intend to pay any attention and quickly continued talking to himself.
Qingyu could only listen silently as the alpaca "delivered an important speech."
"Under my watchful eye, countless worlds began to develop in parallel, but soon countless new problems arose."
"For example, the future of many worlds eventually developed into two extremely extreme poles."
"It seems that only one of Pokémon and humans can coexist at the same time."
"In a world where humans no longer exist, Pokémon fight each other endlessly, ultimately leading to the destruction of the entire world."
"And in a world without Pokémon—humans don't live as happily either."
"So I started thinking about a '7'"
"If only one of these two possibilities makes the world boring, then why does the world repeat one of these two futures in most cases?"
"The turning point came when I finally discovered a world that was interesting enough."
Arceus paused again, and at the same time, Qingyu seemed to sense a pair of eyes watching him.
"In that world, there are no creatures called Pokémon, yet many humans yearn for their existence."
"And those humans who yearn for Pokémon—at least for one moment, they were genuinely happy."
"So I began to observe the future of this world, and soon discovered a soul that had been separated from the world by an accident and came into the void and chaos."
"I got some answers to my questions from him, so in exchange, I granted him one wish."
"From then on, a new life that should not have existed was added to the world I originally created."
"And you, my—friend?"
"Your existence has indeed created more variables for this world, and has also brought about new changes to the future of a world that was originally trending towards stability."
Upon hearing this, Qingyu's expression changed from initial impatience to astonishment, and she subconsciously asked, "So—that's how I transmigrated?"
He suddenly understood why Arceus had been built up for so long.
If He said it directly, even an alpaca wouldn't completely believe Him.
Now, all the mysteries have finally been revealed.
The fact that I was able to travel through time can no longer be attributed to Arceus; I was simply delivered to him!
I was chosen by Arceus?
As for why Arceus left this world, it seems quite obvious.
As long as He exists in any world, He will make the future fixed, so He had to leave the world He loved so much.
That's pretty tragic.
Qingyu couldn't help but think.
"It doesn't matter. For me, it's interesting enough to observe more new future developments that exceed expectations."
Arceus's voice drifted over.
"Besides, the story I'm about to tell isn't over yet."
Qingyu immediately shut her mouth and waited quietly for Arceus to continue "telling the story".
The next key question should be why I lost my past memories and mistakenly believed that I was a time traveler.
To be honest, he had sensed this to some extent before, but he hadn't thought about it in detail because the guess was too far-fetched.
"Because of your existence, the entire Sinnoh region has undergone some changes, and the world seems to be gradually developing in a better direction."
"However—I can feel it."
"You've come to the Pokémon world you've always longed for and built new bonds here, but you don't seem happy."
"So, after using some means to re-establish contact with you, you made your second wish."
"You wish to forget the unpleasant things that happened and enjoy this world anew as a 'time traveler'."
0
"And I have granted your wish, that's all."
"Something unpleasant—?"
Qingyu was somewhat concerned about this.
If nothing unexpected happens, it should be about my parents going deep into Zone Zero and having an accident, right?
No wonder I time-traveled at that point; was it because of such a hasty decision?
But thinking about it carefully—if I had actually lived with my parents for more than ten years in this life, I probably would have chosen to run away when such a tragedy happened.
For some reason, Qingyu suddenly felt a little sad.
However, at that moment...
Arceus's voice came again.
"Now, I have granted your second wish."
"And in return for this equivalent exchange, it's my turn to state my own wishes."
?
I will grant Arceus his wish?
Qingyu subconsciously pointed to herself, looking embarrassed.
"You're not kidding, are you?!"
"I'm very serious, and only you can do this."
Arceus's voice unusually carried a hint of ambiguous emotion.
"When I left the original universe, I did not understand what emotions were, and therefore ignored the feelings of some of the creations."
"And now, after witnessing countless tragedies of world destruction caused by them, I have to admit—"
"I regret it."
"I regret not leaving an explanation back then, and I also regret not being able to treat them more gently, so that they could have a greater sense of belonging to the world, and together guide the world as the origin toward a better future."
"So, in exchange for fulfilling your wish, you will fulfill my regrets in my place."
"I believe you can do it."
As soon as Arceus finished speaking, Qingyu felt a sudden white light before his eyes, and then his consciousness, as before, briefly went blank.
At the same time, a somewhat familiar passage of text suddenly appeared in his mind.
Since you dare to call yourself Arceus's chosen one, you should also understand that without showing the corresponding attitude, you won't gain the approval of any great being.
[But that merciful sage not only did not judge you, but even bestowed upon you a great mission.]
Go and encounter more of His creations, and build bonds with them so that they may live happily ever after that great being has vanished.
If possible, let's grant them one more wish on His behalf.
The so-called "Road of Legends" is only just beginning!
[And also—even just a little more respect would be appreciated, could you please stop calling it an alpaca from now on?]
[New quest automatically triggered: The Road to Legends - Extreme]
[The Legendary Path - Ultimate: Encounter every one of his creations and grant them one wish if possible.]
[Reward: Praise from Arceus]
[Currently achieved goal: None]
