Chapter 645: Chapter 14: Reversing Time and Space

"Melody, that’s the basic situation."

"I was actually about to call you, Alex. Just now, the train... it seems there was a malfunction on the tracks."

Alex was currently on the phone with his wife, Melody, discussing meeting at the premiere of "Kaiju" in Washington.

For this couple, it was a very tough choice.

Gambling now might still reunite them, but as Alex had mentioned, once the curse was fully developed, they might never be able to meet again.

"The magic of the Causal Law Curse lies in the fact that... the present can often affect the past."

At that moment, Dai Lin continued his conversation with Green.

"If I may say so, in the field of Causality Curse Objects research, the top expert was the former deputy director of the Department of Cursed Objects, Natsume Heisuke, Rodney Dailun’s assistant. Though he was under Rodney Dailun, Natsume Heisuke, like Kafka, was one of Damon Dailun’s most valued confidants."

Dai Lin had all of Milan’s memories and was naturally very familiar with the name Natsume Heisuke.

All the Curse Object Department Doctors of the 666 Hospital combined couldn’t compare to Rodney Dailun and Natsume Heisuke. Both were top-tier geniuses—the former created the Necrodeic Formation, while the latter greatly expanded the development of Causality Cursed Objects.

Their deaths were deeply regretted by the current vice president, Mephisto Faust, who would have wanted them for his own use. Especially after Natsume Heisuke’s death, he destroyed all his research outcomes and cursed object data. He’d rather die than succumb to the Faust Family.

Natsume Heisuke’s wife, Marilyn An, was Asian-American. The couple later became adversaries. And now, both were dead.

"If Natsume Heisuke were still alive, he could definitely make a precise diagnosis of this curse. No one was better at handling Causal Law Curses than him. Unfortunately, now not even one of his papers can be accessed."

At this moment, Natsume Bandove was holding her phone, scanning the map of the eastern United States.

Specifically, the route from Philadelphia to Washington.

After a while, she shifted her gaze to Atlanta.

"Hmm... let’s go here."

Then, she stared at the camera in front of her, contemplating the time it would take from Tokyo to Atlanta.

"No... choose South Carolina instead."

Following that, she clasped her hands.

"I escaped here four days ago, left Tokyo, and now, I shouldn’t be here but in... the United States, South Carolina."

The next moment, her figure began to repel the surrounding matter.

The substance of three-dimensional space is highly stable, bound by time and space, and what has already happened absolutely cannot be changed.

But this law did not affect Natsume Bandove.

In the next second...

She appeared in South Carolina, USA.

"Hmm."

She looked around, quite pleased.

Thinking they could imprison her was everyone’s biggest illusion.

"Dai Lin..."

She continued to murmur this name.

She wanted to meet Dai Lin.

But, she couldn’t go directly to Philadelphia to find him. For her, going to where that patient’s wife was felt safest. Melody had tried before; she couldn’t enter 666 Hospital, and no doctor could bring her into the hospital to meet her husband. Clearly, the curse resisted transporting her instantly to meet her husband in the hospital.

Although Bandove had a cursed object inside her, she had not yet signed the contract and was not a doctor. Thus, if she was with Melody, no doctor could approach her.

"Now, first to find that patient’s wife."

She didn’t fully understand the details, only that Zhu Lu had briefly informed her about this patient’s situation and that his wife was planning to travel from Atlanta to Washington.

With the Causality Curse Object inside her, she had enough means to find Melody.

Not far to go.

She quickly walked forward.

However, as she walked, she started to feel increasingly drained.

The impact of modifying the "past timeline" was massive.

This was still under the pretense of several restrictions: it couldn’t cause anyone’s death or resurrection, the influence on the timeline couldn’t exceed a week, past modifications had to be logically consistent, and modifying the timeline involving powerful evil spirits, especially in matters of her life and death, would severely backlash against her.

This backlash, when facing a powerful enemy, often represented a severe debuff. So far, experiments had been focusing on overcoming this debuff. The Faust Family hoped, through the cursed objects of the Natsume sisters, to truly achieve the miraculous feat of reversing time and changing causality.

If it was possible... to revive the dead, that would be even better.

"Bandove, I just hope to repay Lady Ophelia. Father killed so many people, I hope... to save an equal or even greater number of lives to make amends. I believe that was also my mother’s wish."

This had always been Zhu Lu’s goal. She felt that saving more lives could offset her father’s sins. However, sins cannot be atoned for by good deeds.

At this moment, not far from her, a motel.

Melody, with her daughter, had arrived here.

Just now, there had been a mishap on the train tracks, and ultimately, all passengers had to disembark.

This was anticipated by Melody; it would have been rare for the train to arrive safely in Washington.

Entering the motel and bringing their luggage to the room, Melody drew the curtains and looked outside.

Approximately three hours until dawn.

Next, they needed to consider if they could continue northward and arrive in Washington by tonight.

"Melias, you go to sleep first."

As she spoke, suddenly hearing no response from behind, she immediately turned around, only to see her daughter looking back at her with a vacant, puzzled gaze.

"Mom, are we really going to Washington?"

"What do you want to say?"

"Can we not go?" Melias asked with a timid look, "I’ll agree to anything you say..."

Hearing her daughter’s words, Melody shook her head.

"We have to go."

"But I don’t want to go..." Melias began to tremble, "I, I don’t want to..."

Then, she suddenly ran towards the motel’s main door, ignoring her mother who was trying to stop her, and rushed outside.

Melias dashed out of the motel, running wildly down the street.

Her speed continued to increase as she ran forward!
