Chapter 829 (1/2)
”Well, at the beginning, let's find out one thing first.”
In the quiet night, the faint candlelight and the boy looming behind the lights raised the index finger of his right hand in front of the smiling lips:
”Dear Loren, evil god... What should it be in your impression?”
For a moment of silence, the dark haired wizard fell into meditation.
He met mazka, who was as ”stupid” as a beast but could control the ogre;
I have seen the body of an evil god without ”consciousness” and empty body;
He had a face-to-face meeting with the living dead named faoda, an apostle of the evil god lemantes, who represented ”death”;
He was killed and acquainted with the ”old acquaintance” of the black Duke and the female martial god worshipped by the Boyi and Byrne people;
I saw with my own eyes that serliol was completely eroded by the ”black cross”, and the fascists who once dreamed of ruling the Empire fought several times;
Of course, we can't forget a cunning and treacherous, an extremely paranoid ”twin” Asriel;
What do they... Or what do they have in common?
”... they exist in the void, but they can exist in the world in a way close to 'Legend'.” after thinking for a moment, Loren frowned:
”The Byrne people believe in the nobility of glory and sacrifice, so Brunhild is a female martial god wielding a spear and sword; the loterians have the tradition of blood sacrifice and the deceitful goblins spread by the mountain people, so Asriel appeared.”
”Everyone is afraid of death. The evil god 'lemantes' from the north is so invincible... And so on.”
Asriel gently pursed the corners of his mouth, blinked his eyes, and did not judge the answer.
”But all this has nothing to do with themselves, 'Legend' is like a mask, a title, or even a... Well, an account.” Loren raised his eyebrows and looked at the boy opposite the candlelight. ”You know what I mean.”
”Of course, because we are friends, best friends.” the blonde nodded approvingly and seemed to enjoy this ”natural” tacit understanding: ”but...”
”But... 'Legends' have nothing to do with themselves, or have a certain connection, but they are not their essence.” the black haired wizard said, ”just like their names, these are just' stories', 'codes' and' Legends'.”
”There are always people who worship heroes as idols, and there are always people who believe stories as true... Of course, maybe the stories are true.” Asriel leaned against the back of his chair and spread his small hand:
”A noble title will make people in power, and noble blood will be awesome, but in the final analysis, what is the real difference between these born noble people and traffickers and pawns?”
Lauren squinted slightly.
Order, idolatry, title and essence
”According to this statement, evil gods from the void should not only let themselves exist in some way of... Title,” Loren continued, ”but also make others aware of its existence.”
”Well... Sometimes it's not that troublesome,” Asriel added in a smooth tone. ”There are always some particularly 'smart' fools who connect themselves with something objectively existing in the material world.”
”Then these 'smart' fools find themselves stuck in the mud and can't pull it out... As for the worse, well, it's probably too late to realize it.”
”You mean...” chewing the information revealed in the blonde's words, Loren frowned slightly: ”Legend... Will it affect the evil god itself?”
”Of course, those close to Zhu are red and those close to ink are black.”
Asriel said happily, his scarlet eyes flashing.
”But on the contrary, the evil gods that do not rely on the material or image objectively existing in the world, but simply rely on their own 'Legends' also exist?” Loren thought.
”There will always be such a group of non mainstream aliens who don't like to follow the crowd ~” the blonde boy shook his head happily.
”So... There are no legends of their own, even unknown to the world, almost undetected by the material world, and the recognized evil gods... Also exist?”
Lauren leaned back and leaned back on the back of the chair.
”Yes, yes, is it a guy who has never been seen, recorded in words or rumors, and has never had any impact on the world... Do we have to say that he doesn't exist?” Asriel smiled more happily.
The dark haired wizard frowned again and fell into deep thought.
”Now, dear Loren, you should have the most basic concept in your mind, or... Story setting.” with a provocative tone, Asriel is like an author who is good at breaking chapters and can annoy readers to death:
”For the evil gods, 'Legend' is just a title, a suit of clothes, a thing that is absolutely dispensable to them - of course, it is a very shameful and embarrassing thing to go on the street without clothes, so the evil gods who once appeared one by one in front of us are all dressed.”
”They wear colorful clothes and dress themselves up, or they are gorgeous and moving, or they are hunting strange, scary and scary ghost animals... In short, clothes are not themselves.”
Asriel paused, slowed down his tone like a skilled storyteller, and his scarlet eyes glittered with soul stirring Charm:
”So, after taking off their clothes, what is the essence of evil gods?”
Loren, who was completely ”trapped” in the story, took a deep breath and pondered for a moment. He still didn't have the courage to speak, but just raised his eyebrows:
”The existence of... In the void?”
”This vague setting is no longer popular. Now there are many party members.”
”I think readers hate the water army who makes up the number of words more than the vague setting...”
The black haired wizard shrugged and looked indifferent: ”you are an evil god. Just tell me directly, won't you?”
”Of course Asriel can tell Loren, but...”
With a sunny smile on his face, Asriel scratched his head embarrassed: ”but Asriel is only a child. How can he answer such a difficult question?”
Once again, he avoided answering.
”Dear Loren, have you ever seen the sea?” the blonde asked seriously, changing the topic again.
The dark haired wizard turned his head and pretended not to care about him.
”Poor Asriel has only seen the sea once. Alas, beach, sea breeze, seafood...” the blonde boy lay on the table with an aggrieved tone: ”I really want to lie under the sun umbrella now and let the beautiful and lovely big sister wipe olive oil for Asriel...”
”...” Loren Turin.
