Lara's Goal
For the first time since Etz Chaim began speaking, Dante's expression changed greatly. Previously, everything had been an uninteresting backstory about everything and how things reached this stage, so he did not have much of a reaction.
However, the revelation that it was Lara who created the Zero Gate as well as the First Gate changed everything. These two locations and phenomena were integral to all his plans and also formed the current core of the entire framework of all the universes in existence.
For what reason would Lara design such a thing?
"The purpose of the Zero and First Gate is to weaken my power bit by bit until she can break free." The avatar of Etz Chaim seemed to see Dante's question and answered him right away.
