BXBX NOVEL Chapter 378 Unforgivable Sin
"Although I am now in another universe that doesn’t have any direct connection with the Timeless Border, this is quite an important matter, so I came despite the difficulties."
The universe creator in front of the Mysterious Expert was the main consciousness of that universe creator and not a simple shadow as the one Yale had met after entering into the Timeless Border.
"I suppose that she is also with you in that place. Although we three are at the same rank, I know that due to my personal circumstances I am still the weakest of the three."
The Mysterious Expert was at the same rank as the universe creator and was also a Timeless Sovereign, but it was still inferior in power to the other person at that rank who wasn’t a Timeless Sovereign.
"Is still good that at least one of us remained in the universe, and we can communicate through the Timeless Border, so despite any personal reasons, you were the best choice to remain behind. Moreover, you should know that she has personal matters with the inhabitants of that universe since it was because some of them infiltrated on our universe that her son’s soul was cursed."
The Mysterious Expert had reasons for not leaving the universe, so it wouldn’t have done it even if the universe creator asked for it.
"Speaking about the curse, Yale should get rid of it soon, so there shouldn’t be any reason for her to continue looking for a cure in that universe. I came here just after Yale became a Timeless Sovereign, but after returning, I am sure that he will proceed to remove that curse."
A Timeless Sovereign could enter and leave the Timeless Border at will, so it wasn’t difficult to return to the same point they left.
"She will be glad to hear it, but she is also asking for revenge, and I am not sure if knowing about Yale’s state will have any effect on her."
The universe creator stopped a bit before continuing.
"In the end, your plan has been better to help that kid. Although it is still impossible for a Timeless Sovereign to treat someone who has that curse, it isn’t difficult to remove it from oneself with certain advantage obtained with the title."
The Mysterious Expert didn’t smile at all after hearing it.
"Maybe, but it is also my fault that his fate twisted so much after reincarnation. My unforgivable sin has saved a lot of people and removed the suffering of more people than I can count, but without a doubt who suffered the most for the effects of my sin has been Yale. Although he had benefited from it, in the end, since I had been interfering with his fate the whole time after his reincarnation, that isn’t an excuse for my acts. He is just a powerless kid right now and possessing the title of a Timeless Sovereign doesn’t change that, but someday after turning strong he will have the right to destroy me, and I am ready for that."
The universe creator sighed when hearing that because he already knew of that situation.
"I don’t feel like Yale will act like that after he learns the truth of everything, but I don’t plan to interfere with his decision."
Being the only son of one of those who reached his rank, the universe creator had a lot of knowledge about Yale, and although it was true that the Mysterious Expert was at fault, in the end, it had benefitted Yale.
"It is a pity that it is impossible to look at the fate of those who became Timeless Sovereigns, or I would have wanted to confirm how will he kill me."
The universe creator could only sight again when hearing the confidence of the Mysterious Expert about being killed by Yale.
"There is nothing to do with that. We are people who changed the past, so we aren’t properly connected with fate. Even though Yale’s changes have been too small compared with the ones we two provoked due to using that method, it is already impossible to determine his fate since he is already considered a Timeless Sovereign."
Changing the past was an unforgivable sin in any universe, and even those with control over time could just affect the present and the future, but never the past.
"He only managed to do those small changes due to the special condition where two real selves of him existed simultaneously on the Timeless Border plus the effects of his mother’s soul empowerment, your piece of legacy and even the suppressing effect of that curse. That method can be only used once, and the effects only affected ten years and a few people that are all in the same world."
Yale had changed the past by absorbing his original self at the moment of returning, but with both wills being overly strong, at the moment of returning for an instant, a paradox happened where past and future turned into a mess.
Yale’s original self couldn’t return to the real world but did it with Yale’s help. However, the fate would have directed Yale’s original self to the same time when he entered the Timeless Border which was in a far past compared with Yale’s time.
Due to that paradox, the time on the universe froze, and Yale was disconnected from it obtaining the chance to modify his past since he wasn’t linked to it at that moment.
Of course, that only allowed him to do small changes, as the universe quickly fixed the error letting exist only the Yale who was further in the future.
Moreover, Yale couldn’t change anything affecting his own existence at that point, or the universe may have just erased him completely.
In fact, if it hadn’t been because the strange balance in Yale’s soul with the empowerment, the legacy and the curse, Yale’s existence would have probably been banished before doing any change.
Thus, although he managed to slightly modify the fates of those who died due to the space ripples to made them appear in a safe place, Yale couldn’t prevent Swordmad’s death, nor the matters that led him to enter into the Timeless Border.
Changing Aiwai’s fate was also quite difficult since it involved an Essence God, and that fact made that part more difficult to change.
In the end, Yale managed to make that the Essence God unlocked a part of the piece of the legacy of the universe creator learning just the skill that she needed to save Aiwai in the last moment.
That was the limit of changes Yale managed to do before the universe returned to normal.
"It is hard for me considering him a Timeless Sovereign with that method as he couldn’t do it again and the effects have been too small, but although I was who created the Timeless Border by accident, I can’t decide about that. Moreover, I was far weaker than Yale when I created it, so I guess that it will be alright if I consider him at least half Timeless Sovereign, I can’t give him the other half since he can’t change the past again. After all, I still want to say that becoming a Timeless Sovereign is harder than reaching my rank."
The universe creator always felt that becoming a Timeless Sovereign should be considered harder since it was something that wasn’t related to training, and in fact, even a normal mortal could manage to reach it with the correct circumstances.
"He is a complete Timeless Sovereign despite what you consider. Moreover, I can’t also change the past again with the method I used, although the effects I provoked were far greater than Yale’s. If you just consider Yale as half Timeless Sovereign, are you saying that I can also be just considered half Timeless Sovereign?"
The universe creator laughed when hearing those words.
"You are right, if I just consider both of you as half Time Sovereign, the total number is still two, so I can still say that becoming a Timeless Sovereign is more difficult just by showing the numbers."
Although the universe creator was quite friendly with those who reached his rank or had become Timeless Sovereign, he didn’t truly see them at the same level.
There was no need for a battle, both the Mysterious Expert and Yale’s mother knew very well that they wouldn’t be able to win against him. In fact, even the Battle God would be able to surpass both of them in a battle of pure ability. In a battle against him, they would need to rely on their superior rank to win.
"Well, I don’t mind for what do you consider. That won’t change the reality. I will be going back. I want to see Yale getting rid of that curse."
Immediately after saying those words, the Mysterious Expert left the Timeless Border, and after laughing once again, the universe creator did the same.
The Mysterious Expert was again in the same place from where it observed Yale moments before when Yale changed the past.
"It is starting."
Yale’s aura had returned to be that of an expert at the Sage Rank, but his strength was steadily increasing after having returned to his body. That was also the indicator that Yale was about to start getting rid of the curse.
