“Oops… just kidding, my apologies…” Whis covered his mouth and giggled.
“Let’s leave it at that for now.” The Great Priest said, ending the call.
Snap!
The Great Priest immediately put away his staff.
Tap tap tap!
At that moment, a small figure came running from not far away, appearing beside the Great Priest and looking up at him with wide eyes.
“Hey… Great Priest, what’s going on?” Zeno asked.
“Do you remember Lila?” The Great Priest suddenly asked.
“Lila? That name sounds familiar… I think I’ve heard it somewhere before…” Zeno scratched his head, muttering softly.
The Great Priest remained silent, quietly watching Zeno with his piercing triangular eyes.
The Great Priest believed that Zeno would definitely remember.
“I remember now.” Zeno’s eyes lit up as he recalled, responding immediately, “Isn’t she the angel of the 18th Universe? She said she would perish along with the 18th Universe… In the end, she dissipated all her angelic power and vanished with the 18th Universe.”
“Yes.” The Great Priest nodded lightly.
“Lila was truly devoted to her 18th Universe.” Zeno sighed softly, “No angel has ever done such a thing before.”
“However, the destruction of the 18th Universe was inevitable, and her actions were indeed extreme.” The Great Priest sighed slightly.
“Lila isn’t one of your daughters, right?” Zeno asked.
“No, actually, only Korn, Sava, Whis, Cus, Marcarita, and Vados are my children in the true sense. The other angels were gods born independently in their respective universes.” The Great Priest explained, “And Lila was the only angel with yellow skin… Perhaps her unique appearance contributed to her unique personality…”
“Why did you suddenly mention her?” Zeno seemed a bit puzzled.
“Do you remember what Lila said when she disappeared?” The Great Priest asked.
“No, it’s been billions of years. I’m not interested in her matters.” Zeno shook his head.
“But I remember.” The Great Priest smiled.
Zeno was taken aback, looking up at the Great Priest in confusion, not understanding what he was trying to say.
“Lila said at the moment of her disappearance that she would leave her purest angelic power in a certain universe, waiting for a fated person to resonate with it.” The Great Priest sighed, “She also said that when the time comes, this fated person might even become a true angel through cultivation.”
“Oh? Now that you mention it, I do have a vague impression of that.” Zeno nodded thoughtfully.
A brief silence.
“So, Great Priest, have you found this fated person?” Zeno asked, looking up.
“Yes, currently he is in the 7th Universe.” The Great Priest pondered.
“Let him work hard to fulfill Lila’s wish.” Zeno didn’t say much, his expression indifferent.
“Additionally, there is one more thing… Zeno-sama should be aware of.” The Great Priest added.
“Hmm? What else?” Zeno was taken aback.
“The vanished 18th Universe may be returning.” The Great Priest spoke each word with a serious expression.
Zeno’s eyes widened in surprise.
Silence for three seconds.
“Didn’t I erase it? Wasn’t it completely erased last time?” Zeno muttered.
“Oh my… is that… Lila?” The Great Priest suddenly took out his staff, carefully examining the crystal ball on it, his eyes flashing with surprise.
“Lila?” Zeno was slightly taken aback.
“She might have been reborn.” The Great Priest slowly said.
…
In the 7th Universe, on Beerus’s planet.
After ending the call with the Great Priest, Whis thought seriously for a moment and decided to contact Merus.
The Oracle Fish immediately appeared in front of Whis.
“Whis, you sold me out, that’s not nice.” The Oracle Fish circled Whis’s head continuously.
“Oh my, oh my, I didn’t say it was you, I just said it was a fish.” Whis smiled.
“What’s the difference between saying it was a fish and saying it was me?” The Oracle Fish felt awful.
You almost said my name directly.
“The Great Priest will definitely be angry!” The Oracle Fish huffed at Whis.
“Oracle Fish, don’t worry, the Great Priest will never be angry with you.” Whis laughed.
The Oracle Fish was slightly taken aback, full of doubt, and asked, “Why?”
“How could the Great Priest be angry with a fish?” Whis sighed lightly.
Oracle Fish: “…”
“Are you saying I’m not worthy?” The Oracle Fish became even angrier.
“Oracle Fish, sometimes it’s better to keep things unsaid, that’s the mark of a good fish.” Whis sighed again.
The Oracle Fish felt heartbroken, glaring at Whis, bubbling with anger.
Ignoring the Oracle Fish, Whis thought carefully and immediately contacted Merus.
After ending the call with Whis, Merus stayed in his room, waiting for Whis’s response.
“Whis brother! Did you ask the Great Priest?” Merus immediately picked up his staff and used the crystal ball on it to video call Whis.
“Yes, I have contacted the Great Priest.” Whis nodded, “The Great Priest said that the birth of such a peculiar figure in the universe is quite normal.”
Merus: “…”
Silence for a long time.
“That’s it? Just one sentence?” Merus felt a bit helpless.
“The Great Priest hopes that Mr. Ren can train well and strive to become a true angel as soon as possible.” Whis said to Merus, “So, it’s time to teach him the true Ultra Instinct.”
“So… Whis brother, are you planning to teach him Ultra Instinct personally?” Merus asked.
“The Great Priest asked who among the angels has the best teaching ability.” Whis explained, “I said Merus might know better. Merus, you tell me who has the best teaching ability.”
“If we talk about who has the best teaching ability… it should be sister Cus.” Merus thought for a while and mentioned Cus’s name, “After all, sister Cus is our eldest sister.”
“Well then… Merus, I’ll leave the challenging task to you. Find a way to bring Mr. Ren to Cus.” Whis suggested.
“Take Mr. Ren to the 10th Universe?” Merus was slightly taken aback.
“Yes, yes, that’s the Great Priest’s intention.” Whis nodded.
“Alright, I’ll handle my current affairs and then take Ren to the 10th Universe.” Merus agreed readily, not objecting.
“Also, it’s best not to let Mr. Ren know about this. According to the Great Priest, things obtained easily are not cherished and may lead to wasted time. So, don’t directly send him to Cus; find a roundabout way. Let him understand the hardships ahead, to better prepare him for becoming a true angel.” Whis said seriously.
Merus was completely speechless.
Can’t send him directly?
Then what can I do?
