Chapter Seventy-Three: Death Without Turning a Blind Eye

"Why, didn't you introduce me to the Holy See of Light, so that I could see the practices of the Holy See of Light and their beliefs? I've seen it all, so that's why I've made this choice," Haszak looked at the lich in confusion. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"I know you've probably been wondering why I introduced you, someone I've never met, to the Holy See of Light, and I'll explain it to you now. It's not because you brought me the body of a jade bee beast, or because I've heard the name of you and this dead Aloy Hughus, but it's because you might be useful to me! I was interested in you, and it just so happened that you also shared all your doubts and thoughts, so I had ideas for your future.

I like people who are as confused as you were at the time, because human beings who grow up without purpose and belief are stupid and inadvertently manipulated by others in the course of their lives. So I guided you into the Holy See of Light at that time, and at that time, the Holy Knights' Reserve Camp of the Holy See of Light had actually begun, and Benim's insertion of you at that time would definitely cause a backlash from the Trainer's side.

I expected that the Holy See might be ostracized, and then you would see how dark and stubborn the largest organization in this huge world could be, which looked so glamorous and brilliant from the outside.

Of course, this is all imaginary, I think you are a student in the Palantel Academy after all, although the teachers in that academy are of average strength, but they are known for their absolute neutrality and impartiality, so the outlook on life of the students who come out of this academy is extremely correct, so they are also famous for pedantic, and the kings of all countries like the people in this academy the most, because they are extremely loyal.

But I didn't expect that group of old guys taught you two apprentices, and maybe they would be sorry for you to disappear, when Hughes joined Shadowtooth Island, that group of old guys jumped to their feet angrily and sent an ultimatum to Shadowtooth Island saying let's put Hughes back, and he thought that we caught Hughes and didn't let him go back, which was really funny.

So, at that time, you had naïve ideals, and you came into direct contact with the darkest under the brightest, and you will finally see that the world is not as simple as you imagined.

I thought that the longer you stay in the world of the Holy See of Light, the more you will get bored with that hypocritical place, and when you defect, that is, when you join Shadowfang, because you have nowhere to go. Of course, if you are killed by the Holy See of Light in the defection, there will be no follow-up.

That's just what I was thinking at the time. I didn't expect that I was wrong, I didn't expect you to be so extreme, and you could still think about your dreams under the stimulation of this contrast, and I didn't expect that the chess pieces that were laid out at that time could grow to such a point and have such a big stroke.

Tsk, that's a big deal, Padmore is going to be by you. ”

The lich shook the chaise longue with a hint of schadenfreude in his voice.

"That's pretty much the best explanation, no wonder I haven't been able to understand your intentions, it turns out that the path I took was different from what you thought, but now it doesn't matter, I just need to do what I think." Haszak said very blandly.

"No, you're wrong, you're doing exactly what you want." The lich suddenly stood up and looked at Haszak with a straight look.

"Not only have you violated your own ideals, but you have also violated the purpose of the Holy See of Light that you have always believed in, and most importantly, you have violated the will of the whole world, and now you can be said to be the one who is rejected by this world, and I think this is the reason why you will lose to Aloy Hughes, whom you desperately want to defeat." There was a great pressure in the lich's voice.

"You say that, but I really feel that after completing the summoning ceremony, my strength has dropped a little, and I have always thought that it is affected by the breath of the undead, but if you lose, you will lose, I know that my mentality is not right.

But why do you say that my ideals are wrong, what is wrong with my desire to integrate the forces of all mankind, and what about the high-pressure terrorist policy of the Holy See of Light, as long as this high-pressure can produce stability and there is no war, not to mention that as far as I can see, how selfish and narrow-minded the human beings in this world are, even if they really give them heaven, they will turn them into hell. There was a hint of anger in Haszak's voice.

"Whether it will become hell or not, it's their own business, why do you have to decide, the so-called personal ideal, is exactly such a meaning, no matter how beautiful the ideal is, it will only have the greatest impact on a person. My original intention was to make you give up your ideals, it is not easy for people to live, so why live for nothing? Let me ask a few questions, it's an undead over there, you should have discovered it a long time ago when you cultivated the Bright Fighting Qi, you listened.

"Little skeleton, why did you come to this world" The lich suddenly turned to me and asked, but I didn't expect it to be me.

"I heard some kind of calling." I replied.

"Is the purpose of the summoning over?" "It should be over"

"Then why don't you go back" "I don't know how to go back"

"The purpose of the summoning is over, is there anything else you must do in this world?" "Nope"

"Will you continue to be in this world? Do you want to save or destroy the world?" "Why do you have such thoughts, I still don't understand my own identity"

After asking these questions, the lich turned his head to look at Haszak again.

"Listen, in fact, everyone wants to be this undead, came to this world in a daze, I don't know what the purpose of being born, growing up, and then dying, our survival is not to do something for the world, human beings have survived for so long, their origin has not been figured out until now, what can they do for the world, have you ever thought about the need for the world?

Have you ever thought that people in this world really need it? They are living in dire straits, perhaps just as they are happy to.

After saying this, move on to the next one, you are in the Bright Sect, do you know why the Bright Sect has the purpose of unifying the continent? The lich asked.

"This, I don't know, isn't it for your own dominance?" Haszak was obviously a little confused by the lich's previous words, and after the lich asked for a while, he raised his head blankly, then lowered his head and thought about it.

"You don't even know the purpose of the Bright Sect, how can you say that your ideals can fit in with the Bright Sect to stabilize the world!" The lich scoffed.

"Then tell me, what is the purpose of the Holy See of Light?" Haszak questioned.

"Soul and faith. But their most urgent pursuit is only the soul, the peace of the world? What they need most is not peace, but war, why do you think there are so many wars on this continent? That's all controlled by the Holy See of Light behind the backs of the countries. The lich said nonchalantly.

"Why do you say that, I have been in the Holy See of Light for nearly a hundred years, and although I have participated in many wars, I have directly fought against the armies of other countries." Haszak's brow furrowed.

"With my command of the Holy See of Light for more than 200 years, with my identity as St. Ansent III, and with my name as Iron Sergeant!" The lich's voice is not angry.

"What, Pope Ancent, who died of illness?"

"You're sick and dying" "...

"Are you really Pope Ancent?" Haszak's face was incredible.

"Believe it or not, that's all, I won't answer the doubts after that, the will of the world does not allow too many people to know what will follow, your soul will dissipate immediately, just disappear with doubts, as you said, the future suffering of this world really has nothing to do with you." The lich looked disdainful.

"Hughes, is he really a former pope?" Haszak asked Aloy Hughes next to him with an anxious expression.

"Hmm, I don't know, my teacher didn't tell me, but it's very likely, I seem to have heard the teacher mention it before, the chief marshal of the early days of the establishment of Shadowtooth Island was Elder Lieguston, and it was during that time that the Bright Sect was severely damaged, so Shadowfang Island had a chance to survive, and his identity as a lich was officially accepted." Aloy Hughes replied after a little contemplation.

"How, how, tell me, will the consequences of my doing so really go against my ideals? Tell me..."

"Give him the reason for the disobedience, and tell him about himself," Aloy Hughes interjected at this time.

"Don't say it, don't say it, after you say it, you are likely to be rejected by the world like you, if you are interested, you can go back and ask your teacher, the old guy in Barnfield actually knows it, you see if he will tell you." Well, Zack, your time is up," the lich said as he looked at Haszak, looking incredulous and unwilling.

"No, I don't believe it, you must have lied to me, you must have lied to me, I, I will definitely figure out this result, it will be..." Haszak's body began to slowly glow white at this time, and then slowly dissipated from his feet.

"Maybe, depending on how you behave after you die." The lich spoke one last time as he looked at his glowing slowly decomposing head.

Countless scenes were scattered from his body and filled our surroundings, one scene at a time of what Haszak was doing.

It wasn't long before I realized that this was Haszak's memory, but why did it appear in this form?

These memories slowly dissipated, and finally only one was left, on the battlefield full of corpses, two young men fists together, watching the sun rise together.

"It turns out that this is what you remember the most" Aloy Hughes looked at the place where Haszak had dissipated, and there was some kind of emotion in his voice.

I just felt something emanating from his body and dissipating into the air.
