"…" Theo was speechless. If this wasn't an illusion, he would have felt the same. After all, it was truly too much.
He couldn't imagine what kind of thing he would do if his wife experienced this.
'This illusion is too good for evoking my emotion… The mist and the hands…' Theo gritted his teeth. 'How do I even use an illusion that can pry the target's memory?'
It was clear that no one had witnessed the scene where Eric infiltrated their words. So, this illusion must be something created based on his memory.
'I shouldn't be stuck in this place. I need to break free from the illusion and continue my journey.' Theo shook his head while calming his heart down. Even though it was just an illusion, the scene indeed shook his heart.
But to his surprise, the moment he released his Magic Power, he received a notification.
[Even I have my limits.]
[I'm not that ruthless.]
[As much as I hate people, I won't torture them like that.]
[Even I'm not that evil.]
"Eh?" Theo widened his eyes in shock, never expecting to see the notifications. "This illusion is insane that it even knows my secret…"
The secret he was talking about obviously referred to the four God Level figures behind him.
However, one of them replied to his words.
[There was someone who actually witnessed such a thing. If everything is aligned, this might not be an illusion. In fact, this can be someone's memory. And this is the only place where such a memory can be transmitted to you.]
"Huh?" Theo narrowed his eyes. "This is obviously an illusion. To think they even mimic the God of Mischief talking style."
Obviously, there was no way Theo could believe what he saw right now due to him falling into the illusion.
But the moment he said those words, the entire room crumbled again. In the pitch darkness, a middle-aged figure appeared.
He had blue hair like Theo, and his face was similar to Ray's. However, he couldn't call him Ray because they felt different.
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "I've been waiting for 31 years… I'm truly glad to see my younger brother in this place… All my effort has paid off."
"Huh? Younger brother?" Theo squinted his eyes. The only person that would call him that was Edward, but because of their relationship, Edward wouldn't call him 'Younger Brother' anymore. In other words, the person before him was none other than the firstborn.
Before Theo reacted by calling him an illusion, the man continued with a smile, "You don't need to believe it if you don't want to. I just want to tell you that this is my memory…
"It's impossible for you to know what happened that night, but it's not impossible for me. My name is Owen Griffith; I'm your brother."
Theo remained silent and started releasing his Magic Power to break free from this illusion.
Owen already knew his intention and simply stated, "Anyway, the reason why I can appear before you is because I have seen the future and want to change it. Everything I showed you earlier truly happened in the past.
"And it's normally impossible for people to show something like this since I was supposed to be a fetus at that time… However, I managed to use a unique power on Earth and connect to someone…
"He called himself Chronos, the God of Time. Because of my Time Element, we got connected, and I managed to see the future. The meeting happened when that person injected his power into me. I wasn't sure about the details, but I knew you would come to this place today."
"Impossible." Theo harrumphed. "You're not my brother. He's already dead. Do you think coming up with that information will make me believe in an illusion?"
"Illusion, huh." Owen smiled and said, "As I said earlier, you don't need to believe me. However, this place indeed gave me the opportunity to meet my younger brother.
"Sadly, I'm just a soul. I used this place to freeze my soul so that I didn't reincarnate yet. Anyway, I have told you everything. It's up to you whether you'll believe it or not." Owen smiled and snapped his fingers.
The illusion gradually collapsed and sent Theo back to reality.
"Hah!" Theo let out a shout suddenly and moved his body left and right, finding the hands still covered him.
But unlike the previous time, the hands felt so soft that Theo easily ripped them apart.
"Eh?" Theo looked around and released all his Magic Power to escape the illusion, but nothing changed. Even Isaac was still on his side, trapped inside the illusion.
'I'm already in reality? Wait a minute… Is this even a reality?' On the one hand, he wanted to believe he had reached reality. On the other hand, he felt this reality was created by another illusion in his head. After all, he had seen something like this in the fight between his mother and Eric Griffith.
[This is reality. Do you think I, who had the Illusion Authority, couldn't differentiate reality and illusion?]
'That's not what I mean… isn't it impossible for a baby to have a functioning brain to the point it created all that stuff? I just couldn't believe it.' Theo shook his head and spoke in his mind.
[You haven't figured out this place yet?]
'What do you mean? Isn't this place…' Theo suddenly fell silent when he was about to answer.
In fact, if the God of Mischief didn't lie to him and everything he saw was the truth, one place came into his mind. Theo muttered what he had heard earlier.
'There was someone who actually witnessed such a thing. If everything is aligned, this might not be an illusion but someone's memory. And this is the only place where such a memory can be transmitted to you.
'A place that can host a soul… Is this Helheim?' Theo sucked a cold breath before shaking his head. 'No. This is not Helheim. This place is the homeland of primordial darkness, cold, mist, and ice… Niflheim.
'And what he said earlier about going deeper… He was supposed to die because of dishonorable death.. There's only one place where such a soul will go in Norse Mythology… It's said to be inside Niflheim, where the Goddess of Death Hel resided… Helheim.'
