Dragon of the Root - Chapter 1009: Old man in the alley

Chapter 1009: Old man in the alley

“Initially, my Clairvoyance saw some future, but it surprised me. Now I can see a definite future.”

Although Merlin who is a half-incubus is not a good-hearted person, I like to see Happy End.

However Merlin didn’t have Happy End this time, he didn’t even see an accurate future, but he saw some inaccurate future trends.

There is a future where Chaldea will be completely destroyed and Mesopotamia will be destroyed. There is a future where Chaldea does not come, and only King Gilgamesh remains in all of Mesopotamia, a future that does not exist.

How could Merlin not be able to see the right future, not worry.

Wu Ming spread his arms.

“There is no definite and accurate future, what you are seeing is the possibility of parallel worlds being born.”

Like Wu Ming, the future is not fixed, even without its variables, there will be many futures that will lead to the birth of parallel worlds.

But with the singularity of Wu Ming’s existence, fate will inevitably change, and will be deflected from the original future.

It was also understandable to be worried as Merlin was unable to see a proper future due to Wu Ming’s insertion.

Clairvoyance Gilgamesh couldn’t see the future, so he hastily asked Merlin to find the tablet of life, to see what future was engraved on the tablet.

“The future is something you have to experience for yourself, if you know everything, what’s the point? Maybe the future will change when you see the future.” Wu Ming’s implication was that he did not believe in the so-called future.

“Oops~ If only King Gilgamesh could see it as openly as you do, you would know that when he asked me out to look for the clay slab, it cost me the life of an old bone.”

When eleven Demon Beast Commanders appeared in the north, Merlin relied on his illusions to explore the north with difficulty and find Anna.

If Merlin came late later, Anna would have died at the hands of the Demon Beast commander.

“Heh~ You live in the tower, so it’s time to go out and do some activities.” Wu Ming and Merlin laughed again with schadenfreude.

“You still forgive me~”

Merlin found it difficult to even cast a spell, let alone go outside, he was a Hikikomori.

“Forget it, come here first~” Merlin said as he turned towards the door.

“I still have half a piece of butter cake left at the Chaldea embassy. I might not be able to eat it in the future, I have to enjoy it.”

Merlin, who had guessed the result for a long time, even applied magic to the butter cake to keep it fresh.

“Hey~ at the end of hard times, you will eat cake to finish it?” Wu Ming glanced at Merlin angrily.

“Ahhhh~ With you here, I guess those three dragons are enough to take on Goddess Tiamat.” Merlin turned and smiled.

No matter how stupid Merlin is, he can tell that the three-headed dragon is Wu Ming’s trump card.

Although the strength of the three-headed dragon is lower than that of the creator god Tiamat, if it is Wu Ming’s trump card, then don’t worry, Wu Ming must have done something.

“Trust me.” Wu Ming couldn’t help but smile.

“That’s for sure, isn’t it the same for everyone else.”

Gudako and Mashu trust Wu Ming because of their relationship with him, Roman and Leonardo da Vinci trust him because he helped Chaldea a lot on the journey towards burning human history.

And Wu Ming’s strength is strong, and there is no other way, but relying on hope and Gilgamesh trusting Wu Ming for no reason and Enkidu are the same.

Ishtar trusted Wu Ming, and Jaguar Man relied on animal intuition. Anna followed the crowd to some extent.

Quetzalcoatl didn’t fully believe him, but there was no other way now, and s1he would sacrifice his life if she didn’t succeed and attack the Goddess Tiamat.

Although Quetzalcoatl is a South American god, but she is actually a god who came to South America, and it is impossible to kill Goddess Tiamat in such a desperate situation.

Merlin believed in Wu Ming, it was completely because of the relationship between the two old friends.

“To be honest when I found out you didn’t tell me about Artoria’s future, I thought of giving you a slap when we met again,” Wu Ming said jokingly.

The original Wu Ming was still very weak, and there was no way to change King Arthur’s ending. Even if it was partially changed, it ended with the collapse of the Arthur Dynasty, but Merlin who had Clairvoyance did not tell Wu Ming.

“Hey~ obviously you’re the one interrupting my Clairvoyance~”

Merlin also understood that due to his own reasons, he couldn’t see the right future, otherwise Wu Ming would have slapped Merlin long ago.

Merlin also believed that he couldn’t see the right future and thought that Arturia’s future would change, who would have thought that the end result would still be the same.

“No longer.” Wu Ming shook his head and walked to Merlin’s side, obviously wanting to go with Merlin.

“You’re not going to take my butter cake, are you?”

“What do you think, I have something to do with Anna, so I will go with you to the Chaldea Embassy.” Wu Ming looked at Merlin with a disdainful look.

“That’s all, cough, but if you want to eat butter cake, you can tell me, I will share a piece, after all, you are my best friend~~”

“Oh, I want everything.” Of course it’s a joke.

“!?” But Merlin looked serious, and he didn’t want to go back with Wu Ming.

While chatting, the two left the tower and walked towards the Chaldea Embassy not far away.

Just as the two passed through the alley, Wu Ming suddenly stopped and turned to look at the alley.

In the alley, there was an old man in tattered clothes leaning against the wall, a tattered hood covering the old man’s eyes, and he looked like he was sleeping.

Merlin’s eyes lit up when he found the old man, and then smiled.

“Oh oh oh~ I’ll go back and enjoy my butter cake first~~”

In the end, only Wu Ming outside the alley and the old man inside the alley remained.

Wu Ming walked into the alley and sat face to face with the old man.

“What’s wrong with you?”

Wu Ming also opened Dragonest, took out a piece of cake, and handed it to the old man.

The old man raised his head and looked at Wu Ming with sharp, eagle-like eyes.

After the old man stared at Wu Ming for a while, he couldn’t take it anymore.
