Chapter 828 (2/2)
”Really, it sounds like I'm wrong?”
Shrugging his shoulders, the black haired wizard sat down and crossed his legs: ”I'm so sorry to disappoint you... Why don't I change now?”
”No... we are friends, and the best friends don't care about these trifles.” Asriel narrowed his eyes and shook his fingers
”Don't say you're wearing clothes now... Even if you're naked, it's like a cloak and a crown to Asriel.”
”... thank you for your compliment.”
Loren, who twitched at the corners of his mouth, almost gnashed his teeth and said these words:
”But as' best friends', have some people forgotten something?”
”For example...” Asriel stared, put his hands on the edge of the chair and leaned forward... It was a ”surprise to me” expression.
”For example...” the black haired wizard bit his back teeth helplessly, and his smile became more and more stiff: ”some people seem to have promised me that they will tell me everything they know when everything is over.”
”But now it seems that 'some people' seem to have forgotten.”
The blonde tilted his head, smiled cunningly, and had no regret to apologize:
”Dear Loren, Asriel admits that he made a mistake. Asriel shouldn't let you wait so long... Although the main reason is that dear Loren is too busy to bother him;
But that's not the reason. Asriel apologizes for his mistakes and is willing to exchange everything he can do for dear Loren... Your forgiveness. ”
Lauren looked up with an unexpected expression.
”But before all this... Asriel also has a problem.” the blonde boy sincerely widened his eyes: ”why do you have to wait until Asriel takes the initiative to show up this time, dear Loren - you should have tried all means to force poor Asriel to speak!”
”Yes, you said so.” Loren sneered:
”I used to be.”
Asriel, with a blank expression, still had a ”pure and innocent” smile on his face.
”After going through so many things, more accurately, climbing back from the edge of life and death again and again, I found out one thing.” the black haired wizard said expressionless:
”All the 'truth', you only speak when you have to tell me, and... Only tell me what you have to know.”
”The rest... Won't say more than half a word.”
Still ”pure and innocent” blonde, his expression is still so natural.
”So the conclusion is... I don't need to speak on my own, because you won't give me accurate and complete information; and when you have to tell me, you won't hide anything from me.”
”So... Why should I ask?”
In the face of the aggressive eyes of the black haired wizard, Asriel was still indifferent and even took it seriously: ”Oh... It's worthy of being Loren. It's really great - you found it in just a few years!”
Lauren, who smiled but didn't smile, really had to bear it to restrain his impulse to press the boy on the ground and beat him up.
”There are many reasons for this. The most important one is to ensure that dear Loren... You don't come into contact with an existence you can't defeat too early.”
Asriel, who didn't care, gently raised the corner of his mouth: ”Asriel is just trying to ensure that every enemy you encounter, at least you can deal with... Or you can deal with it on the premise of getting help.”
”You mean to say... You have calculated all the evil gods and monsters I have encountered so far?” Loren snorted with disdain.
Asriel raised his head and looked at the dark haired wizard with deep eyes:
”Impossible?”
Lauren frowned slightly and a sarcastic smile arose from the corners of her mouth:
”I remember what you said before. It's different from this?”
”Oh, of course!” Asriel's face showed a childlike innocent smile: ”Asriel is a bad child who likes to lie. What he is good at is lying.”
”Language, words, sounds, symbols... These are the most powerful forces in the world, which run through the two worlds; it can enable an ordinary person with no strength to bind a chicken to defeat too many enemies stronger than him.”
”Similarly, it is also an elusive force - explain sadness with laughter, express joy with cry, hide fear with anger, cover up empty head with eloquence...”
”The most interesting thing about this' powerful 'power is that it can tell the truth with lies.”
”... what the hell are you trying to say?”
Suddenly interrupted him, and a trace of impatience flashed through the bottom of the black haired wizard's eyes.
”It's easy,” Asriel whispered. ”Dear Loren, it's time.”
”Why, suddenly 'merciful' is ready to tell me the whole truth?”
”Here, truth is a very inappropriate word.” the smiling young man shook his head again, put his hands together and gently pressed them against his lower lip, and his expression was very playful:
”I'll tell you a story, and then it's up to dear Loren to judge what you are willing to believe, what you won't believe, and what you don't want to believe... Or ambiguous and difficult to judge.”
”Can you stop playing?” the black haired wizard with a long face grinned more and more.
”Story... Is history - but who decides what history looks like?” the young youyou asked, ”ten people experience a thing together. Do ten people have exactly the same memory of it?”
”Or are bystanders more qualified to judge? But he hasn't even experienced all this, and how much inside information can he know about the parties' ideas?”
Facing the increasingly murderous Loren, Asriel sat up gracefully and raised his eyes; Hold your small white hands together and put your wrists against the edge of the table:
”I want to tell a completely fictional story, a person who did not exist at all, a history that did not leave a written record.”
”But as Asriel said...”
”A lie can also...”
”... tell the truth.”
Lauren said nothing and expressed doubt in silence.
”Well, first of all, let's talk about the basic settings of the story.”
