A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

Chapter 1734: 472 Matthew’s Decision!

…

“You know, I’ve never been fond of long-winded speeches, so I’ll keep it simple. If there’s anything you don’t understand, feel free to interrupt and ask; if you do not interrupt, I will assume you understood,” said the little girl, speaking at a brisk pace.

Matthew nodded immediately upon hearing this.

“Good, let’s get to the point then,” she said, her eyelashes fluttering slightly, her skin seeming a few shades fairer and more delicate than before:

“The so-called ‘vanished historic world’ is actually a misnomer.”

“Its actual concept refers to ‘a window that appears periodically in the Mirror World and can lead to the Original World,’ and what we’re vying for in the historic world is, in fact, the key that opens the window to the Original World…”

“Under normal development of the Multiverse.”

“This window is essentially unobservable, unfathomable, and unapproachable.”

“And the reason we can become special Observers or even contenders is that we rely on the Secret Treasure left by Yin, which ultimately allows us to lock onto that window…”

A Calamity Mage’s doing?

Matthew wasn’t surprised by this; to the world of Aindor, the Calamity Mage was like a God of Creation bringing dimension-reducing strikes.

A casual stroke of hers could become a trace that all beings would look up to.

Matthew pondered and said:

“Excuse the interruption, but I want to know what the ‘Original World’ means.”

The little girl quickly explained:

“The ‘Original World’ corresponds to the ‘Mirror World’.”

“Just like how people in reality and their reflections in the mirror are related, there is a correlation and mapping between the two.”

“Our world is most likely a Mirror World, and beyond the boundaries of the Multiverse, there exists a more realistic Original World.”

“You can imagine at the edge of the Multiverse, there exists an unimaginably large mirror, from which light comes and reflects everything happening in the Original World inside the mirror.”

“It’s as if the movements of a person in the mirror lag behind the movements of the person in reality.”

“The development process of the Mirror World is also much slower than that of the Original World.”

“Moreover, the mapping relationship between the Original World and the Mirror World is far more complex than my example of the person and the mirror. As far as I know, although the Mirror World and the Original World have almost identical overall trajectories, there are many chances, randomness, and differences in the details—especially at the level of individual lives.”

“In fact.”

“Our study of prophecy spells is based on this principle—”

“By peeking into the Original World, we gain advanced knowledge of the development of certain things there, thereby predicting the development direction of the corresponding things in the Mirror World.”

“But just as divination spells are not always one hundred percent successful, so is the Original World’s mapping onto the Mirror World.”

“This is because too many variables exist in the process of mapping.”

“The more detailed the things are, the poorer the fidelity of their mapping becomes, and at the level of individuals, the mapping of the Original World to the Mirror World might be entirely different—”

“For example, there might be a necromancer named Matthew in the Original World as well, but that Matthew might be a blood-thirsty madman who loves to destroy nature, entirely different from you in the Mirror World. Do you understand what I’m saying?”

“What I’m trying to say is, as insignificant individuals, we don’t need to worry too much about whether we’re merely puppets in a mirror, because the mapping between worlds doesn’t care for such minute details.”

“Even as beings living in the Mirror World, we too have our own independent wills and vivid colors, and we don’t live our days under the shadow of our Original World counterparts…”

Matthew listened intently.

This wasn’t the first time he’d heard theories like this.

But Isabelle had articulated it the clearest.

Many puzzling points became extremely straightforward and clear after her explanation.

“So, what you mean to say is, as individuals in the Mirror World, we should not concern ourselves with the mapping from the Original World, yet when it comes to large-scale catastrophes, the mapping from the Original World is very real?” Matthew asked.

Isabelle nodded and said:

“Yes.”

“On a larger scale, the Original World’s mapping onto the Mirror World is incredibly strict, cruelly so, to the point there’s almost no escaping it. Even someone as powerful as Yin cannot entirely change it…”

Can’t completely change it?

Does it mean something has been changed?

Such queries shone in Matthew’s eyes.

As if guessing his thoughts, Isabelle quickly said:

“Assuming the mapping from the Original World to the Mirror World is established and uncontrollable, especially in the case of major calamities and disasters.”

“Then ultimately, everything we do in the Mirror World is futile.”

“We can’t save the Aindor of the Mirror World because the Aindor of the Original World has already shattered…”

“You might be very curious as to why, before the disaster, almost everyone foresaw the Days of Heavenly Change, yet no one could change it.”

“This is one of the answers.”

“The disaster originates from the Original World, not our Mirror World itself.”

“With my divination spells, I’ve seen that the Aindor of the Original World has become the most desolate place I’ve ever witnessed in my life—”

Their material layer completely collapsed.

The Cosmic Womb shattered beyond repair, unable to nurture new life anymore.

It was a universe drained of all its thermal energy, reduced to barren silence.

Ultimately,

It became the breeding ground for the giant beasts…”

“And now, a great cataclysm is rushing towards the Mirror World in the form of a projection, and there’s nothing we can do here but watch helplessly as this world heads towards destruction.”
