I want to have a date with Superman

"I know you have many doubts in your mind, please listen to me slowly."

The goddess statue got general information from Rachel's spiritual remnants and explained directly: "This is Acharas, an alternate dimension beyond the real world, which is also my kingdom of God. I am Asar, you heard Have you passed?"

Harley shook her head.

Goddess Asal muttered: "My name is in the Nine-Nine Gods List."

——I only know the multiplication table.

Harley thought to herself.

The goddess said: "True names have power, you always know that, right?

Only by understanding the true names of gods can we worship them, communicate with them, learn their knowledge, and borrow their power.

Therefore, studying the true names of gods is an important school of magic.

The Nine-Nine Gods' Name List is a collection of eighty-one names of gods compiled by the mage over millions of years.

There are of course more than eighty-one gods.

These are the eighty-one gods who are most willing to respond to human prayers.

In addition to the list of nine-nine gods, there are also songs of nine, eighteen magic spells, names of mortal objects, names of birds, names of cities (ps), and names of giant trees."

Harry's expression was a little distorted, "Power can be borrowed and returned. These names of gods can form a 'Book of Creditors'."

"You are pretty good for having this awareness. But your knowledge is too shallow. The true name has power. It can not only pray to the gods for strength, but also drive or even destroy them.

Harley, you have to understand that the names of gods are researched by mages and are not given away by the gods themselves. "

After explaining in a deep voice, the goddess said with a relaxed tone: "You may be wondering why I am telling you this. In fact, the reason is very simple. Rachel asked me to accept you as an apprentice."

Harley had mixed feelings in her heart.

After a while, she asked: "Is Rachel okay?"

"It shouldn't be good. I feel endless pain and weakness in her mental fluctuations. She has probably been taken back to hell by the Third Palace, right?" the goddess sighed.

Harley told them in detail about the stranger who tricked them into going to Stonehenge in England.

"Oh, I hope the Supreme God has some arrangements. Now that I have died, I can't do anything to help." The goddess said bitterly.

"What happened here?" Harley asked.

The goddess said slowly: "Has Rachel told you about her life experience?

Her mother's name is Angela Rose, who was a simple American college student thirty years ago.

Because he mistakenly fell into a cult, he was given to the handsome man-looking Sangong by the priest of the Church of Blood. One night, he became pregnant with Rachel.

During her pregnancy, she slowly understood the true identity of the Three Palaces and the significance of the child in her belly to the devil - it was a portal into the real world.

Angela doesn't want the Earth to be destroyed.

She recited the names on the Nine-Nine God List and asked the gods for help.

I responded to her.

I brought her to Acharath, where she gave birth to Rachel.

Under my protection, their mother and daughter lived peacefully for 15 years. Around 1992 in the Earth's Gregorian calendar, the multiverse experienced drastic changes. I thought, alas, I died that year. "

After a moment of silence, Goddess Asal continued: “Without my power, Acharas is getting weaker day by day.

Finally, a few years later, the power of the Three Palaces invaded this small world, and some residents escaped with Rachel. Most of my descendants and believers died on the spot. "

"The devastation you see now is the result of that war." The goddess said sadly.

"You died, why are you consciously staying here now?" Harley asked curiously.

"I did not die in the battle between gods." After a moment of hesitation, she said simply: "Since I agreed to Rachel's request and accepted you as my apprentice, I won't hide some things from you.

The multiverse-level turmoil more than ten years ago was not too big, but it gave the universe a new force.

As for the meaning of that new power, I will tell you later.

In short, I was excited and wanted to explore the mystery of the new power, but accidentally stuck myself to the wall of origin. "

Harley was embarrassed.

"The Wall of Origin is the boundary of the universe. If you stick to it, you will never be able to come down. It will gradually be eroded into part of the wall and become a stone sculpture on the wall.

So, I am almost dead now.

Even my kingdom of God, the ruins of Acharath, is slowly falling towards the wall of origin.

I can talk to you now only because Acharas is the Kingdom of God, and the Kingdom of God is equivalent to a part of the ontology of the gods. "The goddess said in a complicated tone.

Harry thought for a moment, digested the information, and then asked: "What are the conditions that triggered me to come here?

I seem to have seen a raven attacking someone or something before? "

"Have you noticed that since you got Rachel's Raven's Mark, it's especially easy to enter Limbo? By the way, do you know what Limbo is?"

Harry nodded, with a thought in his mind, and said, "When I cast black magic, I often pull the surrounding space into the shadow realm."

She remembered that Richie and Constantine both said that the chance of ordinary people accidentally entering the shadow realm was very low.

And the last ‘Wizards’ Reunion Meeting’.

When the hunchbacked old wizard Didier revealed the secret that she often enters the shadow world, many wizard apprentices at the scene exclaimed loudly and expressed disbelief.

Old Didier thought that was her talent.

Now it seems

"The mark Rachel left between your eyebrows is the essence of her soul. It is transforming your body all the time, making you more suitable for the environment of the 'divine dimension'.

The divine dimension is the various divine realms and small worlds in Limbo Prison.

Limbo is not a physical realm, it is a dimension of thought that transcends matter and time.

Of course, it is difficult for mortals in the material world to enter this dimension.

If you want to reach Acharas and come to see me, you must complete the extraordinary evolution of your body.

Of course, because of Rachel's identity as the devil's daughter, you are actually more adaptable to the hell environment.

It is not difficult to understand that when you perform black magic, you often connect the nearby space to the shadow realm. "

"It turns out Rachel was helping me. I thought I had some special talent." Harley sighed.

"Now it has indeed become your talent." Goddess Asal said.

Then, she added: “In addition to physical evolution, you must also have magic power.

At least, Rachel listed the birth of magic power as one of the prerequisites for you to start teleportation.

The reason is also very simple. The purpose of her asking you to come to me is to seal or even destroy the source of her own magic power. "

Harley's expression changed, "Because of my magic power, I was branded by the supreme being?

The previous holy six-pointed star represented heaven; the bloody five-pointed star represented hell.

I am constantly radiated by the higher magics of heaven and hell.

So, the newly born magic comes from these two families? "

"It seems that you are not ignorant of the secrets of magic like Rachel said." The goddess said strangely.

Harry smiled bitterly and said: "It has been a year since I separated from Rachel. In this year, I have experienced a lot of things and learned a lot of extraordinary secrets."

"In addition to the marks of hell and heaven, can you see other characters, such as an old woman holding a branding iron?" Asal asked.

Harley nodded quickly and said in surprise: "I saw it, I thought it was an illusion.

She was a ferocious-looking old woman who looked a bit like a Greek, with a golden 'First Quarter Moon - Full Moon - Last Quarter Moon' emblem flashing on her forehead. "

"She is Hecate, the goddess of magic."

"It's really a Greek god, but I have no connection with the Greek god system!" Harley said in confusion.

"She was born at the beginning of the universe, when the Greek pantheon didn't even have a shadow.

In fact, it was Hecate who brought magic to the earth, and the ancient life on earth began to use magic and then created their own pantheons. "The goddess said.

"So, Hecate is a supreme being on the same level as God?" Harley asked uncertainly.

"Well" Asal pondered for a moment and said, "The existence of God and Hecate is beyond my understanding and imagination.

Judging from the way ants speculate about human beings, Hecate and God are probably both ‘human beings’.

It's just that Hecate is like a disabled little girl, and God is a strong wrestler. "

Harley wondered: "The Hecate I saw had a ferocious expression, her eyes were vicious, and her whole body was full of hostility.

Even if he is an evil god, there is no need to be so out of style.

At least in terms of temperament, he is far inferior to God and does not look like a being on the same level. "

Are God’s methods black?

Harry was not sure whether the 'Voice of Heaven' could fully represent God's will, but God was definitely not the White Lotus Virgin.

But no matter what God's methods and thoughts are, at least He is full of character and mysterious, making it difficult for people to fathom.

Hecate was too emotional and said "I am a bad guy and I want to do bad things".

"What you saw was the shadow of the resentful woman, not Hecate herself." said the goddess.

"I don't quite understand why she is a resentful woman? Does resentment come from nature, or does it appear the day after tomorrow?" Harley asked.

"You are so perceptive!" The goddess sounded surprised, and then explained: "Do you think the gods are born gods?

Actually no, they.

Well, we are just the ‘ancient people’ of the earth who were born earlier.

They are older than what you now call ‘ancestors’ and are the first intelligent life forms born on earth.

At that time, we were strong, gifted, and had endless life spans. We had the power to lift mountains and seas and capture the stars, but we had never seen the power of miracles.

Until Hecate came to Earth, bringing with her the power of magic.

At that time, we were all believers in the Mother of Miracles.

Back then, the Mother of Magic was amiable, full of pure innocence and love.

She is extremely generous to our group of believers, and selflessly bestows upon us an unimaginable amount of magic power.

Therein lies the problem.

Human nature is greedy.

After seeing Hecate's unparalleled power and specialness, they used the divine power and magical knowledge they obtained from her to imprison her, hoping to drain the source of magic.

In order to do this, they even used very despicable means.

For example, seduce her with tenderness and sweetness, make her intoxicated, and make her relax her vigilance. "

Harley was reminded of Hecate in Greek mythology, who seemed to be the wife of Hades.

"Hades lied to her?" she asked.

"Hades is just one of them. Zeus, Poseidon, Odin and other male gods have all played with her emotions."

Harley's expression was twisted, who was playing tricks on whom?

"Is Hecate too sentimental?" The corner of her mouth twitched.

"You use human ethics to restrain gods?" Asal said disapprovingly: "If you can't do whatever you want, what kind of god can you be?"

She herself is not a chaste martyr, and more than half of the residents of Acharas are her descendants.

Harry thought deeply: "Using the power of magic to imprison the Mother of Magic is like the angel using the power of God to rebel against God. Those ancient gods should have failed, right?"

“It’s not a complete failure, because we are also gods of the gods and have our own wisdom and power.

Although they didn't get her original power, they successfully sealed Hecate's body and preserved their existing magic power. "Asar said.

"So, Hecate began to hate wizards and put a mark on everyone who was born with magic?" Harley said.

"No, she will only leave the mark of March on the witch's forehead."

"Witch. Only for female mages?"

"Well, the male mage doesn't have the Seal of March."

Harley said in confusion: "Don't blame me for 'punching randomly', but the ancient gods who deceived her feelings are mainly men!"

The goddess said strangely: "She is indeed harsh on female mages, but at least she still leaves a way to survive.

Hecate punishes male mages even more harshly.

For a male mage, going to hell is the most promising outcome. "

"What could be worse than going to hell? How miserable?" Harley asked doubtfully.

"The soul falls into the dark side of magic, a universe that any mage should fear." The goddess said solemnly.

"If I become a god, can I get rid of my original destiny?" Harley asked.

The goddess smiled bitterly, "Gods are just mortal gods. To the supreme being, there is not much difference between gods and mortals."
