Chapter 1064: Chapter 490 Master, Stop Chanting

"You were in the world four thousand years ago?"

When Mu You shared this news with Fuya, she was also extremely shocked.

"This is too bizarre. We clearly jumped into the entrance together; why is there such a vast difference?" Fuya said with a face full of incomprehension.

"That I do not know."

Mu You sighed. Indeed, the situation was very strange, including the test with the Magic Potion Master Gege Wu’s legendary potion—it seemed to have been designed specifically for him, waiting for him to jump into it...

However, this explained many of the previous puzzling points, such as the issues with the backpack and the Teleportation Array.

Four thousand years ago, before the Great Cataclysm had descended, the Bitter Garden was undoubtedly still situated within the Star Spirit World, which is why he was able to open his backpack.

At the same time, four thousand years ago, he had not even been born, so naturally, there could be no Teleportation Array for him in the Star Spirit World, which was why the Dark Teleportation Array indicated that it could not detect any other arrays.

With these fundamental questions resolved, Mu You quickly thought of an even more far-fetched possibility: In the Sky City four thousand years ago, he had released three personalities: one utterly evil, one entirely good, and a female one.

And four thousand years later, in the Fairy Kingdom, it just so happened to split into three distinct nations, led respectively by the Lord of Calamity, the Radiant Saint, and the Rose Queen...

Is this really just a coincidence?

The Lord of Calamity, the current information only indicated that he was a Magic Potion Master, and likely a Fool, and he had just recently arranged for a Medicinal Plant Gatherer to explore the Land of Calamity. Whether by his evil nature or as a Magic Potion Master, he fit the profile.

Similarly, Ling Long was also just dispatched by him towards the Rose Duchy, and moreover, when Ling Long was first created, she proclaimed herself as ’Her Majesty the Queen.’ Although later, through his persistent insistence, she gradually conceded and eventually reverted to Ling Long, it could still be seen that she indeed had such tendencies in her nature.

And there’s even less need to mention the Watchman persona, the good personality—the Radiant Saint—fit the identity seamlessly.

Connecting all these dots, Mu You couldn’t help but suspect: Could these three individuals really be his three personas?

But the question was if they truly were, why would his three personas be fighting each other?

Even if the personas differed significantly, they all originated from the same source and had entirely aligned interests. It would make more sense for the three to join forces to rule the entire Fairy Kingdom rather than lead their nations to fight among themselves.

Furthermore, the personas all inherited his memories; they all knew why he had come here—to bring the Bitter Garden back to the Star Spirit World.

And now, four thousand years later, the Fairy Kingdom was dominated by the three of them, and control of the Sky City must undoubtedly be in the hands of one of the personas. So knowing that he now needed the Bitter Garden, why had they not taken the initiative to bring out the Sky City?

To this, Mu You could only think of one plausible explanation: the personas had betrayed him. After enduring the passage of so much time, the three had become entirely independent entities, not wishing to rejoin with him, their original body, hence avoiding the emergence of the Sky City?

But then again, how did the personas separate from him?

He now had only four days left. In four days, the spatial rules would forcefully expel him from this place. Could it be that the personas failed to return with him at that time?

Mu You rubbed his temples, unable to understand at all; primarily due to the lack of information at hand, making it impossible to make a judgment.

In any case, the urgent task at hand was to determine whether these three faction leaders were indeed personifications of his personas.

With these thoughts, Mu You roughly explained his conjectures about the three personas to Fuya.

Being four thousand years in the past, he had no idea what would happen next, making Fuya a crucial figure at this point. If Fuya could find any one of the three, perhaps she could use her influence to learn something through them.

"Do you mean to say that the woman who lusted after my body earlier is one of your personas?" Fuya said, looking at him with a strange expression and instinctively shifting away to maintain a distance, after hearing everything.

"Possibly, it’s just a possibility! And even if it is, that would be the personal action of the persona, it has nothing to do with me, really..."

Mu You sweated; her focus seemed a bit off-track.

"..."

Fuya didn’t speak and sat there with her head lowered, her cheeks alternating between red and white.

After a long moment, she sighed as if she had come to an understanding and looked up, "Understood. In any case, we need to find one of those three kings, right?"

"Yes."

"Alright, then I’ll start with the Brilliant City and ask them one by one..."

After speaking, Fuya picked up her cellphone and began to control her character to sneak into the Brilliant City.

At this moment, Mu You did not rush to enter the city. It should be said that four thousand years ago, the Brilliant City didn’t even exist, so entering would be of no use.

[You command the Chocobo to turn around, heading back the way you came...]

Mu You planned to go back and find the Watchman persona since he had just messaged him that he had gotten lost while traveling...

About two hours later, with the help of a fairy girl, Mu You finally found the lost Watchman on a very secluded path.

[You faintly hear the sound of cats meowing in the distance. The Chocobo stops at the side of the road, the silver moonlight drenching the land. You look up and see a tall figure sitting by a pond in the moonlight, enjoying the view, his body adorned with seven or eight kittens.]
