Chapter 35: The Heart of Strength
You can't live without me...
These words echoed in Hugo's ears in the darkness, and at the same time hit Hugo's heart hard.
There is obviously no falsehood or ridicule in the other party's tone, so who is the other party?
However, this was not a very difficult question, and it was not long before Hugo realized the man in front of him.
"You're... My heart?"
If this sentence appears between lovers in love, then it is a tender and sweet love story, but it seems a little strange to appear at such a moment.
But this is not Hugo's madness.
The so-called mind is not an illusory and abstract thing, but a real thing.
The other party did not answer Hugo, but there was a faint laughter in the darkness.
The results of this answer are obvious.
Hugo fell silent, and although the result did not completely frighten him, it took some time to digest the matter.
But the other party didn't seem to be ready to give Hugo too much time.
"The paper kite's knife is still going on, and if you waste any more time thinking about it, I'm afraid you'll be in a different place. ”
This made Hugo feel a thriller, and he suddenly realized that he was not getting rid of the attack of the paper kite, but in that short moment, his consciousness and soul entered a certain state again, and thus there was a world of consciousness with a time deficit.
For now, Hugo put aside the threat of the paper kite for the time being, and he was more concerned about this consciousness body that communicated with him.
The reason why it is called a consciousness is because since Hugo has determined the identity of the other party, he knows that it is definitely not a living being.
The source of this neutral sound is Hugo's heart!
When Hugo was killed by the Akame Shrine Maiden, he was able to resurrect and regenerate under certain circumstances. And its life and power all come from this new heart.
There have been many speculations about this heart Hugo, but these speculations are more just unfounded imagination. And Hugo never imagined that one day he would be able to have a conversation with him in such a situation, which is more like the scene in which the protagonist in a comic book communicates with the power stored in his body.
"Maybe this situation makes you feel a little uncomfortable, but I think you'll get used to it quickly, and it won't last long," said a neutral voice. ”
Hugo said: "You... What should I call it?"
A neutral voice said, "You can call me the Night King, I still like the name that Chitose Hara gave me." Although the communication between you and me will not be very long, I don't want to be called by you one by one. ”
Hugo said: "Sounds numb enough." Hugo had hoped to get some clues about how he had obtained the Blasphemer's abilities by asking the other party's so-called title, but the Night King was disappointed that he had been able to tell the truth.
"Now is not the time for you to be curious about other things, all you have to care about now is how to hold on to your life." ”
The important question is brought up again, and Hugo knows that the "Night King" is also concerned about the attack of the paper kite.
This made Hugo feel a little surprised, knowing that he had experienced countless such life-threatening situations since he became a blasphemer, and even in the face of the incomparably powerful blasphemer magician, he did not have any communication with Hugo, but this time the "Night King" appeared in front of him in a real sense, obviously for the paper kite "Night King" is also extremely jealous.
"It's bad, isn't it?" asked Hugo, as if he were out of the way. ”
"It's just terrible. ”
For the first time, there was a trace of helplessness and complaint in the tone of the "Night King", who had never shown emotion.
Hugo was silent at this time, waiting for the "Night King" to continue to explain.
The "Night King" went straight to the point: "In my eyes, you and that woman are crazy. One is hopelessly insane, and the other is crazy and wants to save her. ”
Hugo said: "Is it really that serious?"
He didn't care about the latter as the Night King, he was more concerned about the hopelessness of the paper kite he was describing.
The "Night King" said: "She should have been a dead person, and even if she is lucky enough to live until now, it can be said that it is the extreme, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to save even if she uses her skills to pass through the heavens." And you're trying to resurrect her with the Stone Tablet of Tritoglaia. Hmph, you're just a human with a little special ability, not a god who rules the universe. ”
Hugo said: "I'm just trying to heal her wounds..."
"There is no cure!"
The Night King replied decisively.
Hugo was silent for a moment and then said, "The man said yes." Hugo was referring to "ZERO" in the space of the previous Tritogramia stone inscription.
The Night King sneered disdainfully, "What is she?
Hugo said, "You know?"
The Night King said, "I don't know." ”
Hugo pondered for a moment and said, "She should be the sacrifice of Atlantis who entered the stone inscription of Tritoglaia in the early years in order to live forever, then you... And what does it belong to?"
The Night King said, "I don't belong to anything, I am conscious but not to life, and certainly not to the mystical idea of God, and I don't know whether that kind of thing exists or not. If you had to let me explain me further, you could understand me as a strength. ”
"Strength?" Hugo's heart moved, and the statement of "Night King" verified what Hugo thought to a certain extent.
"That's right, it's power. ”
The Night King replied affirmatively.
"You also know that the so-called power of the Blasphemer comes from the Tritocleia Stone, but I don't know anything about the Tritocleia Stone, and while I do have an instinctive familiarity with this place, I don't feel like I belong. ”
"My birth actually began when I became a part of you. From the moment you were reborn as a blaspher, I began to have my own consciousness like a newborn baby. I don't know much, only the things you've been exposed to, and of course I know a lot about myself, so to speak, it's an innate 'instinct'. ”
The words of the "Night King" made Hugo feel a little stunned.
Hugo said: "If you say that, then all desecrators with abilities will have a 'power' in their bodies that has consciousness like you?"
The Night King said: "It is completely possible in theory, but in reality it is not necessarily what the specific situation is. For example, if there are people who blaspheme, the ability is strong, and there are people who blaspheme the ability is weak. And I found that this kind of thing also depends on 'chance' to a certain extent, such as between you and me, if this kind of thing hadn't happened now, I'm afraid there would be no chance to meet. ”
