Lord of The Mysterious: She Comes from the Chaos Sea

Lady Misfortune is a very agreeable Demonic Wolf. Living in the simple dwelling built by Lady Misfortune, Hermione gradually became accustomed to life in the Demonic Wolf territory.

Lady Misfortune's demands were easy to satisfy—she only asked Hermione to describe the customs, lifestyle, and understanding of the extraordinary in human tribes. As one of the leaders of her tribe, Hermione was well-versed in these topics. It was easy to explain, though she held back somewhat on the extent of extraordinary knowledge, not wanting to betray her people—even if human understanding of the extraordinary was extremely limited compared to Lady Misfortune, a deity among magical wolves.

However, during their conversations, Hermione noticed that Lady Misfortune seemed more interested in human customs and daily life than in their understanding of the extraordinary. She would patiently listen to Hermione's accounts of tribal formation, division of labor, and even specific details like hunting methods and trading practices.

Throughout this process, Hermione also slipped in some less advanced extraordinary knowledge she had gleaned from videos, seeking verification from Lady Misfortune, a deity. For instance, the concept of "not directly gazing at mythical creatures' forms," mentioned in the videos, was confirmed by Lady Misfortune.

Over time, Hermione confirmed that many concepts from the videos, such as "creation myths" and the "three laws of indestructibility, conservation, and convergence of extraordinary characteristics," actually existed in this world. She began to believe that the videos she had seen on Earth truly depicted the worldview and future trajectory of this mysterious world.

But why had she arrived in the Second Era, known as the Dark Ages, earlier than her brother? Her brother, Zhou Mingrui, had been frozen in time at the Celestial Worthy of Heaven and Earth's Residence until he was released in the late Fifth Era, merging with a young deceased man named Klein Moretti.

This fusion method reminded her of the early Ultraman universe, where beings from Nebula M78 would possess recently deceased young men, deeply merging with the original host.

Hermione felt like a mental patchwork—she clearly remembered and missed her ordinary life on Earth and the bittersweet moments with her family. At the same time, she fully embraced Hermione's emotions and all the experiences of struggling for survival, fighting alongside other humans in this dark era.

She had been at the forefront of tribal affairs: developing hunting, agriculture, and trade; enduring the disdain of giant tribes to communicate and learn; summarizing methods to avoid being hunted by other races; and attempting to understand and apply newly discovered extraordinary materials.

Zhou Mingxiang, merged with Hermione's spirit, didn't reject this mindset. If she could successfully escape back to her tribe, she would be willing to continue contributing to these causes.

Of course, now believing in the videos, Hermione knew that in the future, humans would rise to become the most powerful race in this mysterious world. The one who would lead humanity's rise was undoubtedly the Ancient Sun God, a true deity of both the "Sun" and "Hanged Man" pathways, who emerged from the Chaos Sea!

This Ancient Sun God, a relic of the old era like herself, had defeated one tyrannical ancient god after another, liberated enslaved humans, and established the potion system using the blasphemy slate, providing extraordinary with a clear path forward, thus ushering in the glorious era of this mysterious world!

Hermione secretly hoped this powerhouse would emerge from the Chaos Sea soon. He truly had the power to change the human condition.

Just like now, although she had Lady Misfortune's protection, surviving among the Demonic Wolf tribe was still extremely difficult...

Of course, relying on others wasn't as good as relying on oneself. If she wasn't capable enough, she might perish before the arrival of this great figure.

During this time, by recalling the twenty-two potion sequence pathways introduced in the videos, Hermione confirmed the methods of becoming extraordinary that she and her companions had derived from ancestral heritage and experimentation.

Comparing the ability descriptions of various sequences in the potion system, Hermione confirmed that she was currently a Sequence 5 "Dreamwalker" of the "Visionary" pathway! And Lady Misfortune, who protected her, was likely a Sequence 2 "Servant of Concealment" of the "Darkness" pathway!

"The Darkness Pathway is the pathway where the goddess of night, who has a very high status, a super strong layout, and a strong record of battle, resides. I don't know if Lady Misfortune has survived the Second Epoch... It's probably difficult, and there is a high probability that she fell into the hands of the ancient sun god..."

"I was able to survive in the Demonic Wolf Tribe thanks to the protection of Lady Misfortune. If there is a chance, I must persuade Lady Misfortune to stay away from that fierce man who fought against ancient gods..."

Hermione, who had a little free time, ate the fresh fruits and vegetables left for her by Lady Misfortune. Although her freedom of movement was restricted due to the need to avoid external dangers, she did not suffer any setbacks in her basic life.

Just as Hermione was lost in thought, Lady Misfortune's dwelling welcomed an unexpected guest.

It was a seemingly young human woman with a beautiful appearance, black hair, and black eyes. Hermione warily eyed this "guest," unable to believe she could be human—this was deep in Demonic Wolf territory, after all!

Facing Hermione's wariness and scrutiny, the newcomer confidently entered Lady Misfortune's dwelling, skillfully sat on a stone stool, and with a slightly raised head, said proudly to Hermione:

"I think my appearance is quite human-like... even more so than 'Misfortune.'"

That voice...

Hermione's heart skipped a beat as she recognized the young woman as the sister of the giant wolf who had tried to eat her on the day she awoke!

The young woman grinned, inadvertently revealing her sharp teeth, and said, "I've given myself a title too—'Mother of the Sky.' You can call me that. Sounds good, doesn't it?"

Mother of the Sky... quite a grand title.

Hermione wanted to scoff inwardly.

But suddenly, she vaguely recalled that in the video stories, there was an angel called "Mother of the Sky" who was later turned into a descent vessel by the cunning and powerful Goddess of Night!

While the "Mother of the Sky" seemed to still be alive after becoming a descent vessel, she remained in a sealed state, not much different from being dead. Moreover, she was frequently controlled by the will of the Goddess of Night...

As Hermione was internally criticizing, this "Mother of the Sky" looked around and said loudly, completely at odds with her image:

"I heard you gave birth to 'Misfortune's' pup? I'm here to see the little one."
