Chapter 930 00930 A Poisoned Chalice, Two. (1/2)
You just crossed the threshold.
Thung!
Suddenly, you hear a loud bang, and a bloody flame rises and rises inside. I stopped reflexively and looked forward. Looking closely, the brazier on the end of the long stick had a blue flame burning in the bowl.
Thung, thung, thung, thung!
Soon a new blue flame emerged again in the forward direction. Obscured, the flames blaze one by one, alternating left and right, and the darkness in the intestine clears while illuminating the path between the braziers listed with zigzags.
The center revealed, therefore, was smaller and rounder than the thought.
T r a ns lat ed b y ｊp m tl .ｃ om The overall atmosphere is similar to that of the Summoning Room. It seemed to be less than forty meters in diameter. The height to the ceiling was more than twenty meters. The higher the ceiling, the softer the curve, the more they gathered together in one spot. I think the arched roof I saw outside is right here.
Just a burning flame spread across the street, and there was a strange and strange feeling in the room with a faint blue light.
“How long are you going to keep your frowning? ”
At that moment, I heard my voice again. It was not a murmuring of space, but a voice close to nature, as you say right next to it.
I looked around, and I found an altar the right size at the end of the street across the street. The altar was simple, without any decoration or decoration, and there was only one glass the size of an adult man's palm.
“Did you hear that? ”
“... Have you already forgotten? Even though humans are called forgetful animals, I think they're really stupid. ”
Tra nsl ated b y ｊp ｍ t l.ｃom I couldn't erase the awkward feeling of speaking like that. Because it sounded like a little girl at first, but then it sounded like an old lady talking. In other words, it sounded like a thick, cool man's voice. The fact that it was invisible was utterly uncontrollable, despite the fact that it was impossible.
I couldn't hear any more voices until I crossed the brazier.
However, when I climbed up the altar and stood in front of the big glass, I felt a strange sensation.
It was then.
“Hm. Still a little different, though. ”
“? ”
“Why don't I know? That look on your face when you said you were gonna turn back the clock? ”
“Now, wait a minute. ”
I covered the cup with my hands without knowing it because of a sudden revelation.
- Hey, hey, hey!
However, the voice was startled.
“You're reckless. ”
The cup also speaks in a slightly angry voice, hurrying to take off his hand.
“… don't worry if you care about your back. He won't be able to hear you and me right now. ”
Oh, maybe it's the senses I felt earlier. Well, that's a relief, but there's still one thing that puzzles me. I try to calm down and take a slow look at the glass on the altar.
T r ans l ated by Jp ｍ t l.co m Suddenly, it's just a slightly wider glass with no signature. Of course, one time I got a zero code from this altar. More accurately, it was in the glass in front of me.
But now for some reason, I do not see the zero code, and no matter how much I think about it, I do not seem to hear the voice at that time. I just grabbed the zero-code as soon as I saw it, and I got chased out....
“Obviously. You ran away before I could even talk to you. I've never been so rude. ”
Huh? Did you read my mind?
“That's it. Anyway, how's it going up there again? A man who has ascended to the summit in the distant past. ”
I continued to ask the same question. At the same time, I suddenly felt stumped.
I don't know.
I don't even know what the question means, so I don't know how to answer it.
“Just…. It's nice. It's kind of surprising. ”
Instead of pretending to have something, I just told it the truth. I really didn't expect to get to zero code so easily.
“I'm not asking how you feel. Say it again.”
But I also seem to have the wrong focus.
I'm asking you to talk about getting here after regression, not about your current emotions.
Ugh, yeah? ’
- First of all, don't think about anything, focus on the questions. Don't ever turn your back on me again. It's impure enough as it is.
‘... Yes. Got it.' Tra n sl at ed by Ｊpmtl .c om
I don't know what's impure, but I know at least one. Seeing the way she's acting, she doesn't seem to be the target. Maybe a god associated with a zero code. Or the zero-code is God himself.
After taking the advice of peace, I was struck again. After clearing my mind, I opened my mouth quietly.
“It's changed.... But it hasn't changed. ”
“Spare me the ambiguity. ”
I told him how I felt, but the answer to the cup was still resolved. I didn't know what was so oppressive about the question, but I started complaining, but soon I changed my mind.
Come to think of it, my area of the promised temple was not over yet. There remained a boundary of the test. I mean, we could be in the middle of a test right now.
“I didn't just say it out loud, I said it out loud. ”
“I never said it like that. I just told you not to speak ambiguously. It meant to say clearly and accurately. ”
... I guess you're right. I can't argue logically.
“To put it bluntly, this round was definitely different from the round. The process has changed, the results have changed. ”
“That must have changed. But it hasn't changed? ”
“Yes.”
“Why? A lot has changed since you've actually been in this place. ”
“Well, I do. ”
“Hmm?” Tr a nsla t ed by jpｍt l.coｍ
“But it's like... The branches are different, but the trees themselves are the same? Oh, not exactly the same, of course. But one of the great things that happened was that it seemed to happen in a similar way in the end. No matter how hard I try, in the end it will be restored to its original state.... That's what I meant. ”
“ ……. ”
Talked longer than I expected. After a short sigh, the cup is silent. It's like you're chewing on my words.
But wait a minute.
“Then, do you regret it? ”
“… What? ”
“Do you regret it?” I asked. I feel sorry for you. ”
“ ……. ”
On the contrary, I kept my mouth shut. At first, I felt vague, but when I think about it, I don't feel like it's connected to the previous question.
Regret.
