The more they oppose, the more it shows that I am doing the right thing-Chapter 782 - 395: An Su Moningsta, You Are the Bishop of Chaos_3
The original Demon Clan, by their very nature, were outsiders. That is why, at that time, he could sacrifice his own name to the Mother Goddess.
An Su was not only reincarnated into the Nether World, nor was he directly reincarnated into the Radiant Era.
He first lived through the Era of Chaos, where he encountered and met with the Demon Clan Saintess. Then, as the Era of Chaos was destroyed, he sacrificed his own name and existence, altering the fate of Yage's predestined destruction, and only after that, was he reborn into the Chenxing Family of the Radiant Era, becoming 'An Su Moningsta'.
Why choose the name 'Chenxing'?
More and more overlooked details and foreshadows surfaced in An Su's pure white eyes.
Awad Holy City would later become the frontier of Radiance.
The Demon Clan resided within the Holy City, their bloodline nearly obliterated.
The Chenxing Family had also existed on the frontier since ancient times. However, they gradually fell into decline, losing their territory completely until Count Karlo discovered a gold mine on solid ground, leading to a revival during the Radiant Era. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
The primary reason for the extinction of the Demon Seed was the excessive ratio of virgin land to sparse population; meanwhile, Count Karlo almost obsessively demanded An Su to reproduce, as if it was an instinct.
The ancestral teaching of the Demon Clan was to raise idle progeny, to be untainted by learning, as this would more likely bring pleasure to the unknown Mother Goddess; (See 359) similarly, the Chenxing Family's creed was an excessively fanatical 'avoidance of learning'.
The Chenxing Family possesses the blood of the Demon Clan.
The most crucial clue that penetrates all threads of fate is:
The surname 'Chenxing' is 'morninstar'.
On Earth in a previous life, this surname belonged to Lucifer.
Lucifer Moningsta, in religion, He who fell from Heaven, the fallen Angel of the Nether World, the demon reincarnated from Hell, is also the master of the Demon Clan—Satan.
"O bright morning star, son of the dawn, how you have fallen from Heaven! You who subdued nations, how you are cut down to the ground! You said in your heart: I will ascend to the heavens; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of the North. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High. Yet you will be brought down to the Underworld, to the depths of the pit."
—[Isaiah]
Lucifer rejected the destiny and sacred duty bestowed by God, hence He fell from Heaven and transformed into Satan, from the infernal pit of the Nether World.
But this name, with its religious significance on Earth, does not carry the same meaning in the beliefs of the Nether World. There is only one answer: this name was personally given by oneself thirty thousand years ago.
An Su finally understood that he, from thirty thousand years ago, was already determined to overthrow this fate, resolved to end this Nether World cycle of reincarnation!
So, only one contradiction remained.
After discarding his name, who was he in a previous life, who had discarded all existence, in the projection of the Nether World?
Since he had once existed during the Era of Chaos, then there should be a 'historical projection' of himself within the Era of Chaos of the Nether World.
This is the Nether World of the Era of Chaos, and by rights, An Su should be able to meet himself from thirty thousand years ago.
Who exactly was that past Undead?
The way to deceive the world, to deceive the divine, to deceive fate, is to first deceive [oneself].
Those who have lost everything, those who have lost their names.
They are the ones who have lost their faces—
[The Faceless One].
"Tehehe."
Laughter sneered in his ear.
"You believed it, you just now believed it all, you were just completely fooled by me, haha!!"
"You gave yourself a haircut, haha!"
"An Su Moningsta, how amusing! This game is really fun!"
"How interesting, truly so interesting!"
The Last Bishop's lips split into a frenzied smile, the last projection from the Era of Chaos almost crazily laughed, He rejoiced exceedingly, delighted watching An Su's face—this projection of the Nether World, a dead soul who lost everything, the Faceless One who wandered for thirty thousand years, now at this moment, has removed His faceless visage.
"An Su Moningsta."
"Take a look at who I am—see my face, whose is it?"
The person tilted their head, laughing madly, almost to the point of tears, all along the end of Fate's Staircase echoed with that joyful laughter.
"You've been fooled by yourself! You've been fooled by yourself, ha!"
"You're the Bishop of Chaos."
Those Pure White Eyes reflected in An Su's eyes, and the Last Bishop gazed at An Su, saying:
"When the mistake approaches perfection, 'The Era of Chaos' will be usurped, and I, as the past projection of the Nether World, will be eternally extinguished."
"But I have seen from within your eyes, the teal world I dreamed of seeing. I am already content, and I will now leave the pure white world I've seen to you."
"Go reclaim your girl, go overthrow the throne of God."
"You are the Bishop of Chaos, no one else but you!"
"O bright morning star, son of the dawn."
He screamed frantically, those Pure White Eyes burst forth with a radiance more sacred than fate itself, even the gates of Heaven did not shine as brilliantly as those Holy Eyes, the entire world's authority glittered from within those pupils.
The Last Bishop, from the end of Fate's Staircase, under the high heavens, sang a hymn to the world:
"We will ascend to the heavens; we will raise my throne above the stars of God; we will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of the North. We will ascend above the tops of the clouds—we will make ourselves like the Most High!!"
