According to the information Yao knew.
In the Holy Grail War, Karl the Great was a ruthless character who could capture Gilgamesh and use him as a power bank.
Although the Emperor Karl who manifested that time was not a normal Spirit Origin.
But that's enough to demonstrate his high value.
To counter the Heavenly Light Sanction, Yao pinned most of his hopes on the giant spider's armored defenses.
Meanwhile, on the Typhon Long body side...
Ephemerus saw that Osmandis's spiritual origin reaction disappeared and the protection given by the temple dissipated.
At this time, Tiphon was still overloaded.
"hateful.....!"
Ephemerus was unwilling to accept this.
Sensing the powerful energy emanating from that daylight, she desperately wanted to help Yao.
Ephemerus gently stroked his cheek.
It's as if you can still feel the warmth emanating from Yao's palm, and that captivatingly rough texture.
Longing spread through her heart.
Suddenly, Ephemerus felt his heart tremble, as if something dormant had awakened.
That was the version of herself she both missed and feared.
In an instant, Ephemerus understood what it was, and a feeling of sorrow welled up in his heart.
She suddenly locked her eyes onto the mobile metropolis.
No, to be more precise, it should be Karl the Great.
"—Karma the Great! Your wish to crush Yao will not be fulfilled!"
Ephemerus’s golden eyes shone brightly.
An eerie fluctuation emanated from it.
The speed at which the light released by the mobile holy city surpassed that of Emperor Karl was transmitted to him almost instantly.
"Goo, what is this!?"
Karl the Great looked astonished.
Without any warning, the Mechanical Sanctuary suddenly seemed to malfunction.
The flow of magic was in complete chaos.
"How can it be!"
Karl the Great could not understand it for a moment.
The holy light descending from the sky seemed to be distorted, shooting towards a direction he did not expect.
The more they wanted to correct the error of the light cannon and bring it back on track, the more they wanted to do so.
The more difficult it is to correct, the less likely it is to do so.
It can be said that it is almost bizarre to the extreme.
Emperor Karl had never seen anything like this before, nor did he find anything unusual about the Mechanical City.
It seems to be a very common malfunction.
But is it possible for a mechanical saint to malfunction?
"It seems... someone is interfering."
A hint of apprehension flashed in Karl the Great's eyes.
He was staring in the direction where Yao was.
Clearly, he believed that the malfunction of the Mechanical City was due to Yao.
I thought Yaoshan had reached the end of his rope.
However, it still harbors such terrifying power.
It makes one feel wary.
Emperor Karl dared not underestimate the power to influence him directly without any intermediary.
"Yao...did you make that?"
Musashi looked completely incredulous.
In her opinion, Yao Zong possessed some strange and unusual powers; otherwise, there would be no way to explain this situation.
No one thought Karl the Great would miss.
"this....."
Yao didn't know what to say either.
Just now, his heart skipped a beat for a split second, almost at the same time as the beam went astray.
Could it be that I actually activated some kind of ability?
Chapter 116 The Anti-Wish Machine Awakens [Please Subscribe! Please Give Flowers!]
"Whoosh... Guh... Successfully stopped it...!"
Ephemerus bit his pale lips.
She was smiling, but her beautiful face was full of weariness, and her brows were furrowed with pain.
Her rosy face was completely bloodless.
"This level... is manageable... As long as there is the power to reverse wishes... I won't let you hurt my Yao."
Ephemerus's fair forehead was covered in beads of sweat.
A short while later, she collapsed to the ground.
Typhon's body was emitting billowing steam, as if it were weeping for the maiden's sacrifice.
That's right, this is the power of the anti-wish machine.
Nourished over hundreds of years.
The Anti-Wish Machine was given another chance to awaken, and it even distorted the heavenly light that Emperor Karl had sent down.
Unfortunately, Ephemerus was not happy.
It's not that she was unhappy about shielding Yao from the attack, but rather about the revival of the Anti-Wish Machine.
This is the power that Ephemeros has always feared.
This is also why she avoids Yao.
It is precisely because of his status as an anti-wish machine that Ephemeral Los dares not face his emotions.
"Ah... I'm an anti-wish machine... No, no... I can't have wishes...!"
Ephemerus clutched his head in anguish.
Once she realized that she had awakened as an anti-wish machine, she could no longer turn a blind eye.
For hundreds of years, she stayed by Yao's side.
Experience the joy of interacting with others.
Even the jet-black dress she was wearing was hand-woven by Yao, imbued with his emotions.
Ephemerus cherished and loved it dearly.
They even regard it as the most precious treasure of their lives.
She would be moved by Yao's touch.
At the same time, he would get jealous when he saw Yao getting close to other women, and his chest would feel bitter and uncomfortable.
I later learned that this was the feeling called love.
It is something I have never possessed before.
During the period when the anti-wish machine was out of order, she greedily and willfully demanded wishes from Yao.
At the same time, I am also deeply afraid.
If it reverts to the anti-wish machine, will all that I love leave me?
To experience love, to yearn for love.
Sweet, sour, spicy... just like the taste of first love.
Love can make people give their all, while romance can offer salvation.
Even those consumed by the fickle fruits of hatred and revenge will choose to quell their fury through love.
She had long forgotten their original agreement.
Even if Yao didn't choose to oppose the Greek gods, Ephemerus wouldn't blame him in the slightest.
Rather, she hoped it would be so.
Forget about the promise you made to her in the past; there's no need to fall into an abyss because of that hatred.
She prayed for Yao's happiness.
Only when she realized that she had such a wish did the girl lament that she had fallen in love with an elf.
"Ah... sin is a wish, fault is a prayer, evil is a dream... sin is heavy, one has only himself to blame, and evil is overflowing."
Ephemerus curled up on the ground, trembling.
Tears streamed down her face.
Ephemerus once uttered these words to intimidate Yao, but now they have returned to his hand like a boomerang.
For centuries, she was immersed in beauty.
She only wanted to stay with Yao like this, forgetting the resentment and hatred she carried in the past, and stay in the honey pot called love.
She would compete with Yao's wives for his attention, and she would definitely fight over food with Yao when they were alone together.
The arrogant demeanor that one always tries to project, as if keeping strangers at a distance, is in essence nothing more than a manifestation of cowardice.
I'm very happy to be with Yao.
[I even feel that if I continue like this, I can do anything.]
But the truth of all this is—
A terrible image flashed through Ephemeros's mind.
(adei) That was her situation after she was exposed as an anti-wish machine; what she saw was the shattering of wishes and beauty.
Yao and his wives longed for a bright future.
Then, the anti-wish machine will have the ability to make them lose, which is what Ephemeros fears.
Afraid of causing pain to loved ones.
At the same time, they fear being rejected by their loved ones.
Countless times, Ephemerus had imagined confessing his love to Yao, immersing himself with him in the pool called happiness, and soaring together in the boundless sky.
This wish cannot be fulfilled.
When this thought comes to mind.
Ephemerus experienced an unprecedented feeling of suffocation and was repeatedly awakened from nightmares.
Whether human or deity.
When you fall into the abyss of despair, you will be bound by the thought of "I don't want to become like this".
For Ephemerus, who is an anti-wish machine.
This idea is fatal.
