Chapter 830 Granddad Paradox
Chapter 830 Granddad Paradox
More thoughts swarm in Lenny's head and he spoke up, "What if me, actually dying or becoming a slave of the Asmodeus family would have changed the predetermined Fate? n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Also, it raises the question in my mind, what is the predetermined Fate. What Fate are My being steered towards. What fate are you all guiding me towards. Do you know, I hate being CONTROLLED...." His gaze fixed intently on her.
The look he gave her was that of an angry lion about to pour its anger on a Gazelle. However, she did not move nor show any fear. Even when it looked as if the White ball of flames in his hand was going to land on her. The wind blew, carrying Lenny's clear white hair as it did. he had been in this world for a long time, and by now, his hair was already reaching his shoulder. He was indeed the presence of man. Minnie suddenly spoke up, "are you saying that you want to break off from fate?"
"Hmmm!" Lenny did not say a word.
"You want to break off from Fate even though it will ensure that you get revenge for your master?" Lenny suddenly moved, grabbing her by the neck. The matter with his master was supposed to be known by just him. Of course he knew that she had been touched by Fate, but it was still a sensitive subject. Nevertheless, she still did not display any fear. Lenny held her throat so tight that his fingers sank into her flesh. "Are You saying that i should fall under control simple because of My goals?" he asked. It was hard for her, but she tried her best to respond, "...You... You are not ... dumb, Lenny. Men are always controlled by other men, or by greater men. A father, the decision of his children, a government its people. Even creatures and their habits are controlled by the weather. And those in Power, by the very Power they will. It is only a foolish man that believes his environment does not dictate his Person. You asked me What fate is? All this, is Fate!"
Lenny heard her words and let go of her neck. "The environment controls the man as the man controls the environment?" he asked. "Well, you can put it that way, I guess. But control is in such a manner." Lenny sighed as his anger subsided. The current circumstance reminded him of an old puzzle back in his former world. "Have you heard of the Granddad Paradox?" He asked her.
"No!" she shook her head.
"It is about a child that out of hate and frustration for his Grand Father, works hard to create a time traveling machine so that he can go back in time and kill his Grand father.
The Time travel works, but for certain peculiar reasons, he can only go back in time to one date. And that's before his parents were born. And therefore the dilemma. If he kills his Grand father, his life would be peaceful. However, his mother would never be born, and therefore he would never have been born. Also meaning that he would have never invented the time machine in the first place, and therefore never ever killed his Grand Father.
Therefore the Paradox. How can one say what is, if it never was, or never will be, because of what is, but never was?" Lenny's words were profound, and even in meaning, they was much more to understand. "I don't want to lose Allison," Lenny suddenly voiced out his thoughts, "...but right now, I never had her, because she never was. And yet she is..." Lenny balled his fist. He closed his eyes a bit. His time with her was very short. But something profound had happened, in that she imprinted on him. Although she was a Werewolf, and the imprint came from her, the bond was a blessing from the cosmos itself.
With the level of sensitivity that he had for the cosmos, as a result of cosmic energy, he had felt the blessing from the universe itself when both of them connected their bodies. Even now, as he closed his eyes, he could still picture the feel of her body wrapping around him with the blood of thousands of devils as blanket and their corpses underneath as mattress. The feeling was still as clear as day. It was like it happened only a couple of days ago.
It was the blessed curse that he now had to carry with him. Minnie drew closer to him, placing a hand on his shoulder. "You are experiencing the pain of loss. I should know, it is not a good feeling. It is the same way i felt when i lost all my sisters. A blend of Hate, Loathe, Frustration, Anger, Regret and even disappointment. All of it is a blend that can break or a man.
Down there are people that will feel the same if you don't do any thing about it. They are as powerless as you are now against circumstances. But at least you can affect there's. Don't get me wrong, I really do not give two FUCKS about them. But if the cosmos blessed your union that day, then it means that its purpose aligns with Fate. And right now, fate is leading."
At this moment, Lenny suddenly remembered the words of his master back in his old world. It was a day he saw Master Lucian receive scolding from the other masters of the Monastery For pain and pleasure. The reason was because he had refused to take in any other student, apart from Lenny, and according to the rules, this was not permitted. Nevertheless, ten disciples were pushed unto master Lucian. With Lenny's knowledge of master Lucian's strength, he could have actually challenged the other masters. However, he did not. And when Lenny had asked him, Master Lucian said....
