The Human God likely frequently sends powerful individuals with strong destinies near Orsted, then uses Orsted's hands to kill them.
After Orsted left, I didn't get up immediately. I sat on a large rock and began to assess the recent operation.
First, the fact that I possess memories of the future was an explanation I had prepared beforehand.
I couldn't tell Orsted that I was a transmigrator from another world, and that the events in this world were content from a novel that I happened to have read.
If I communicated with him like that, I was afraid I wouldn't even be able to clearly explain what the novel was.
Moreover, I didn't think telling him in advance that I knew he would constantly reincarnate would lead to a good outcome.
After all, the only reason he could trust me so easily and give me the bracelet was because he didn't care whether I was deceiving him or not.
If I were an apostle of the Human God, someone sent by the Human God to gain his trust, then he could just kill me in his next reincarnation.
Therefore, he was completely fearless. But if I pointed out that I knew about his reincarnation, he would probably eliminate me immediately. After all, that would be the safest option.
So, I must not reveal this matter until I have gained his utmost trust.
Heh heh, finally, I have to give myself a thumbs up. This time, the fight between me and Orsted wasn't that intense.
I didn't have an arm severed either. I told him that I was cooperating with him to jointly resist the Human God, so I wasn't considered Orsted's subordinate, at most an ally.
In the future, I won't have to blindly obey his every word. At most, I will help him with things like helping Ariel ascend to the throne.
This was, after all, one of my objectives.
As for Rudeus, I'll still let him be framed by the Human God, then get thoroughly beaten up by Orsted.
Finally, he can obediently join the Dragon God Inc. and become a professional corporate drone!
Now that I have the bracelet, the Human God can no longer see my destiny.
Heh heh. I feel like he must be jumping up and down cursing me in the World of Nothingness now.
I strongly suspect that encountering Orsted this time was an arrangement by the Human God Hitogami.
His future sight is blocked whenever Orsted is involved; he cannot see the subsequent future.
Only after passing the future where he meets Orsted will his future sight recover.
This way, from the point where the future is unseen, he can deduce that this person is going to meet Orsted.
So, he must have known in advance that I and Rudeus would encounter Orsted on our way back.
He only knew that I would meet Rudeus and then travel north together.
But even knowing the future was blank, he still let us travel that route. This indicates that he intentionally made us meet Orsted.
I'm not entirely sure how powerful Rudeus's destiny is, but only Orsted could possibly kill someone with such a strong destiny like Rudeus, right?
After all, in my memory, he led Rudeus toward Orsted twice. But he certainly didn't expect that we would have the possibility of cooperating with Orsted.
He must have thought that he was sending us to our deaths by leading us to Orsted. It would be best if Orsted could kill us, but even if he couldn't, it could make us fill Orsted with hatred.
No wonder the Human God previously told me in a dream to escort Rudeus to Buena Village in Fittoa, and if they didn't want to settle there, I could continue escorting them to Sharia.
It turns out that because of the encounter with Orsted, at that specific juncture, he couldn't clearly see the subsequent developments.
Having figured all this out, I felt a bit happy.
This way, as long as I stay close to Rudeus, he probably won't be able to see Rudeus's future.
I hope no more accidents happen.
I also need to study this bracelet that blocks the Human God from viewing destiny.
If I could make a few more such bracelets,
I could have my family wear them too. This would increase the possibility of preventing the Human God from scheming against my family.
I flew alone toward the Red Dragons Jaw. When passing the city closest to the Red Dragons Jaw, I reunited with Rudeus and the others.
Seeing me return unharmed, everyone was happy for me.
Originally, Rudeus was somewhat wary of my attitude, but after I saved his life this time and wasted a Saint-level Healing Scroll to treat his injuries, he already treated me like an older brother.
We were seated in the restaurant of the inn.
The candlelight flickered a warm yellow glow on the wooden table, and white mist rose from the hot soup in the ceramic bowls.
Rudeus solemnly expressed his gratitude to me.
"Brother Daolin, thank you so much.
