Chapter 498: Chapter 498: Big Revelations-1

The goddess smiled gently at Yu Holea.

"You’ve overcome a darkness that has claimed many before you."

Yu Holea, still confused, glanced around.

"What darkness? What happened?"

Lira hugged her tightly.

"You were trapped in a powerful illusion, my lady. It tried to consume you, but you fought it off."

Sir Aldric stepped forward, his expression filled with respect.

"We didn’t think anyone could break free from such an illusion. Your willpower is truly remarkable."

Yu Holea looked at the three of them and asked slowly,

"You mean to say...whatever I saw...was an illusion?"

The goddess paused for a mere second, before saying calmly,

"Yes. It was all an illusion created by the devil to deceive you."

"Decieve me? Devil?"

The goddess turned towards Lira and motioned for her to speak.

Lira, still holding Yu Holea’s hand, began to explain.

"My lady, goddess city is like a ray of light in the dark world. As long as the goddess city exists, no darkness could overwhelm the world.

So many dark entities try their best to destroy the goddess city. And what could be the best way to destroy the goddess city?

By corrupting the candidates. Once the candidates are corrupted, even if the goddess city exists, no one can stop the dark entity from taking over the world.

How do they corrupt the candidate? By invoking malice, greed, hatred. And if the candidates don’t have either of them, the dark entities will create an illusion to invoke darkness within their hearts. The devil that ensnared you was trying to corrupt your soul by creating such an illusion."

’So it was all an illusion?’ Yu Holea couldn’t help but become relaxed when she thought of that possibility.

Remembering how Qiao Jun again saved her, Yu Holea’s eyes moistened slightly.

He was in a coma, yet he didn’t forget to add a protective around her.

He...truly loves her.

Yu Holea blinked, she didn’t want to cry. Especially in front of people whom she only knows for no more than 6 months.

However, there was still a question that was left unanswered...

Even if that dark entity wanted to control her, why did he show such an unfamiliar situation to her?

There was only one solution to know the answer to this question.

Yu Holea turned toward the goddess and asked,

"Why did the devil choose to show me that specific scene? It felt so real, yet I had no memory of it. What was the purpose behind it?"

Even if she stayed at the scene, what could have possibly changed?

"The illusions crafted by such dark entities are not random, Yu Holea. They tap into the deepest recesses of one’s mind, weaving a web of deception around fears."

Sir Aldric added,

"The devil likely used fragments of your subconscious, things you may not be consciously aware of, to construct the illusion.

This makes it harder for you to distinguish between reality and deception."

Yu Holea frowned, trying to piece together the fragments of her experience.

"But why did it feel like something I should remember? It was unfamiliar, yet there was a sense of importance, a need to stop it."

The goddess stepped closer, placing a reassuring hand on Yu Holea’s shoulder.

"It’s possible that the illusion was meant to evoke a reaction, to draw out something buried deep within you."

Yu Holea narrowed her eyes.

For a moment she felt as if she could sense the goddess’s emotions. And she felt...as if the goddess was lying to her...

As if sensing Yu Holeas’ inner thoughts, the goddess withdrew her hand and hurriedly and continued,

"The devil mostly likely wanted to draw out the darkness within you."

Is he?

Yu Holea didn’t think so.

"You are lying." She stated.

Sometimes it’s better it confront than to keep on keeping the questions in her heart.

There were many mysteries that she still had to solve...and she didn’t want to keep on shrouding in those mysteries.

The goddess paused and suddenly said,

"Candidate Qilin do you want to know some secret of your life?"

Yu Holea frowned,

"Goddess, I request you to not change the subject..."

"Such as why you are here in this world?" The goddess continued.

Yu Holea stopped.

Honestly, she indeed wanted to know the truth for a long time.

Even after investigating for a long time, she couldn’t get an answer to her question.

Clearly, only the goddess had the power to tell her truth, since she can be considered the highest authority in this book, right?

Seeing Yu Holea silent, the goddess continued,

"Since you are silent I will give you an answer."

"Before that, I want to ask an additional question." Yu Holea interrupted.

The goddess wasn’t ready to tell the truth, so she could only use the indirect method.

After remaining silent for a while, the goddess said,

"Sure. Please ask."

"Have I...ever lost any memory?" Yu Holea asked. For the first time, she felt a strange kind of fear in her heart.

"Yes." The goddess said with certainty.

She did?

Yu Holea’s eyes widened.

What did she forget?

"When? And..."

However this time the goddess interrupted Yu Holea before she could continue,

"You can only add one last question, after this I will tell you why you are here."

Yu Holea lowered her gaze to the ground.

Only one question?

Well, that was not difficult.

As long as she knows when she lost the memory, she can calculate her past.

In divination the most important part is time.

"When did I lose my memory?" Yu Holea asked.

"At your birth." The goddess said in a smug tone. But Yu Holea was too busy to process the goddess’s words that she didn’t focus on the goddess’s tone at all.

"Birth?" Yu Holea subconsciously repeated. A terrifying thought came to her mind.

Was she perhaps...In this novel world since birth?

So that means there was no original host...she was the original host...right?

No!

How can that be?

Yu Holea couldn’t believe it.

"No...I clearly remember that when I woke up I was lying on the bed of the Yu Mansion. Wait! If I was transmigrated at birth shouldn’t I have memory of my previous life? Then why would I mistreat myself?"

The goddess chuckled,

"Actually, it is not your mistake. When you were born, you still had your memory of your previous life, but remember what did I say?"

"You said I forget my memory when I was born..." Yu Holes stopped.

What?

"Why?" Yu Holea asked eagerly.

"That is something you need to discover. But considering that you are so brave, I will reward you by telling you some more details.

When you lost your memory, your curse still followed you. But due to the injustices, you were suffering from, your cursed deceased slowly.

Originally you have to spend two lifetimes as a cursed person. You completed your first cursed lifetime in your previous life. This was your second lifetime to complete the curse.

You were supposed to suffer for another 26 years in this life. But your sacrifice from your previous life and the injustices you suffered in this life canceled the curse to some extent, resulting in the curse-breaking when you were 14."

"Wait! Why was I cursed? And was I really a cursed person..." Towards the end, Yu Holea’s tone softened.

This curse was always a thorn in her heart and now that there was someone who could give her an answer, how could Yu Holea not use this opportunity?

Even though her head was turning dizzy from all the information, she could process all this information later.

"I can’t answer as to why you were cursed, Candidate Qilin. But...I can tell you whether you were cursed or not.

Yes, you were cursed but I guess you already know the truth, right? You are a retribution angel.

And though you were cursed, your curse was effective only on you.

The reason why your parents in your past life almost had an accident was because they were destined to die, but because of your luck, they were saved.

You might have noticed, that even though you helped other people in your past life, you only received a curse. That was because of your curse"

Yu Holea felt as if the last thorn in her heart was pulled.

The misery her parents suffered in her past life wasn’t because of her...

Great.

And the Qiao Family was indeed right...she was a retribution angel.

However, this didn’t calm the storm brewing within Yu Holea and she asked,

"Why am I here?"

Logically speaking...she shouldn’t be here, right?

"That is again something I can’t tell you. But to prove to you that you have indeed lost your memory I have three proofs, do you want to see them?"

Yu Holea had by now guessed one,

"The reason why I was called in jinx in the village is one of them, right?"

Yu Holea was talking about the time when she was still living with Yu Mei’s parents.
