228. Small details that are forgotten
In this way, Gallo spent the whole morning discussing and learning about the enchantment with Mader.
And poor Captain Wendini can only play with the little milk cat for a morning...
At lunchtime, because no one delivered food at noon today, the three humans could only eat baked potatoes, but the little milk cat still had milk to drink, and ate better than people.
Lunch was hastily settled, Madder was going back to the shop, Wendini was going back to the vigilantes, and Gallo was going to read with the Cathedral of the Light.
So the three of them parted ways outside the church gate, and Gallo left Amiya to watch the door, locked the door, and went to find Misserland.
I only got along with a beautiful girl in the morning.,In the afternoon, I went to find another girl.,It sounds a bit of a scumbag.。
However, Gallo was just studying, studying seriously, and did not peek at Mithran's face and legs.
After the day was spent in this way, he returned to the cottage in the evening and talked to the old bishop about the day.
"Unclear purpose? Unclear motives? A criminal who left no clues? ”
When the old bishop heard him describe Lady Carola's troubles, he could not help frowning, and muttered in a low voice:
"How does it resemble your style?"
Gallo hurriedly waved his hand and argued:
"Don't talk nonsense, I don't send threatening letters, I go straight to the door."
The old bishop smiled and asked rhetorically:
"And you're going to help this lady?"
Gallo shook his head and replied:
"I don't plan to get involved too deeply, it's just that this business is not easy to come by, and I still want to complete the commission well... So I'm worried that Lady Carola won't be able to make it to me when I can do the enchantment. ”
The old bishop was not too worried about this, but smiled, and said:
"You have to believe in the professionalism of the Cult of the Most High God."
"In fact, objectively speaking, among the three major Orthodox Churches, they are the most capable and the most powerful."
"This is probably because the Paladins have a slightly higher status in their sect than the Priests, and even their people are the Grand Knight Chiefs rather than the Archbishops."
Hearing the old bishop say this, Gallo was relieved, but then he was concerned about his other questions:
"But... How long are Lilian Rowe going to sleep again? ”
"Also, the strange sprouts in the garden and the strange magic recorded on them haven't had time to ponder them lately... Sure enough, after becoming a bishop, I was much busier than before, and I didn't have the ease of being a pastor. ”
The old bishop smiled awkwardly, a little unsure of what to say...
Anyway, I'm not that busy, so I've been doing a lot lately.
He could only barely comfort:
"Life is like this, as you grow, there will always be more and more things..."
"Sort things out and come one by one."
As he spoke, he suddenly remembered again, and asked:
"By the way, next month is the Winter Festival, can you finish the enchantment before then?"
Gallo nodded and replied:
"Shouldn't it be fine? What's wrong? Is there anything urgent? ”
The old bishop smiled and said with some mystery:
"I'm fine, but the rest of you should be looking forward to your free time, right?"
Gallo nodded again, and then said:
"Yes, I think that's the case, there will be a lot of people looking forward to me, and I'll need to make some time then."
"For example, the children in the orphanage, they never had time to see them; There are also believers who have just joined the sect, and some ceremonies and religious activities must be held for them, so that they can fully feel the joy of the festival! ”
"You're looking forward to it, right? So I've got to get the enchantment right as soon as possible! ”
The old bishop couldn't help but be stunned, and said with some embarrassment:
"It's not... I'm not talking about these things..."
"Alas... Forget it, let's talk about it then..."
Finally, Gallo exercised, took a shower, went to see how Lilian was doing, picked her up and played, and then went back to her room to sleep.
Before going to bed, it is still a daily accusation:
"Miya-sama, I had a very peaceful day, and I didn't make any mistakes..."
"Today's sin, tomorrow's sin will be sued, right?"
"May the Goddess forgive me..."
The next day, Lilian Lowe was still asleep, and Gallo thought that he would have to guard the church by himself again today, but the old bishop did not go to the orphanage today, but went with him to the new church.
But as soon as the two of them entered, they saw Amiya still standing in a daze, continuing to stare at the rabbit-eared puppet, like an idiot.
However, the floor and windows around it were clean, and it didn't seem to be staring at people all night, but it did something else.
"It's been like this since yesterday, and I don't know what to do?"
"If this continues, the kitten's sweater won't be able to be knitted..."
Gallo said helplessly.
The old bishop looked at it carefully, thought about it again, and then speculated:
"It may not just want to be pretty, as you might think, or it may simply be curious about its kind..."
"I think it's lonely..."
"Loneliness?"
"But aren't I there every day? And the little ones love to hang around it, too. ”
Gallo said with some confusion, and the little milk cats hiding in his arms also jumped out and ran to Amiya's side, meowing at her feet.
No matter how you look at it, it's very popular.,It has nothing to do with loneliness, right?
"No, no, no, what I call loneliness is not in the simple sense, but in the sense of... You can't find the same kind of loneliness. ”
The old bishop opened his mouth and explained:
"It's like being alone and wandering in a foreign land, that kind of loneliness."
Hearing such an analogy, Gallo instantly understood.
Such loneliness, he himself has experienced...
Probably when he was just reborn and resurrected, he always felt that he was an earthling, a traverser, and when he came to this world, it was like being in a foreign country, everything around him seemed so strange, and he seemed so out of place.
But then he slowly got used to it, and his memories of the earth became more and more blurred, and he gradually regarded himself as the native of this world.
"Speaking of Amiya, it may not experience that loneliness until it meets its own kind, it probably feels like a human being, so when it lives with us, it doesn't feel lonely."
"But when it meets a body of its kind, it realizes that it is different from us after all, so the loneliness arises."
"And you haven't been out with it much lately, have you? Letting it guard the church alone every night, and not even having a little milk cat by his side, this situation has intensified his understanding and cognition of the concept of loneliness. ”
The old bishop said a lot of things in a way that sounded like it made sense.
But Gallo doesn't fully agree with this assumption.
Amiya is really just a puppet, or is she the kind of stupid puppet, even if she has a soul, but she shouldn't be so emotionally sharp, right?
Emotions are a very complex thing, especially human emotions, which are even more complicated.
Just look at the kittens, how long have they been in the sect? I haven't grown up to say anything, and I haven't learned to read words and colors.
Lilian Lo is similar, sometimes Gallo just wants to play with her double ponytail, but she misunderstands the other party's eyes and takes the initiative to hand over her little feet...
Even these creatures, who are born with souls and even intelligence, are like this, not to mention Amiya, who has a worse foundation.
But Gallo did not open his mouth to refute it, because he did not completely deny the possibility of what the old bishop said.
It can even be said that he quite expects the old bishop's inference to be correct.
This shows that Amiya is more like a human than a donkey.
Amiya is a puppet who is tireless, fearless, and joyless, even if it already has a mind and ideas of its own, much better than Mader's toys.
But if you can't experience emotions, you're still far away from human beings.
If it can really experience loneliness, that's actually a good thing, even if it's a negative emotion.
There is happiness when there is pain, and there is such a feeling to become a human being.
"So what should we do next?"
Gallo asked again.
The old bishop thought for a moment and replied:
"Didn't it use gestures yesterday to express its desire to change its clothes and become nice and pretty?"
"This shows that Mader's inference is also correct."
"Can we think of a way to do this first?"
The old bishop did not deny the speculation of Gallo and Mader, who believed that Amiya's emotions were not only lonely, but also beautiful and curious...
It's easy to understand curiosity, it's always curious about new things.
Aimei is in trouble, and the five big and three thick puppets suddenly want to dress up, which is very difficult.
The old bishop then came up with a very bold idea:
"It seems to like the shape of this puppet, so can you find a way to transfer its soul to this new puppet?"
This is obviously impossible, and it doesn't need to be judged by a puppet expert like Mader, and even Gallo knows it's ridiculous.
Human beings don't know their own souls thoroughly, let alone puppets?
I don't even know where my soul is...
This certainly doesn't mean that replacing Amiya's head with Rabbit Ears will only break both puppets.
Puppets are very delicate.
Such an outrageous thing as directly changing heads can only be done by the two-dimensional joint overlord, the head changer and the transformers.
After listening to Gallo's explanation, the old bishop smiled awkwardly, he didn't know anything about puppetry, so naturally he didn't dare to say anything.
But then he re-proposed:
"Then can you let this rabbit-eared lady also have a soul?"
Gallo shook his head repeatedly:
"It's definitely not going to work... We still haven't figured out how Amiya's soul came from. ”
The old bishop then proposed:
"Try what you did to Amiya and try it on the new puppet?"
"So? Then you keep watch for a while, I'll go to the market, and then Mader will come, and you ask him to wait for me for a while. ”
Gallo said, and he was ready to ride his little donkey to the market.
The old bishop hurriedly stopped him and asked strangely:
"What are you doing at the market?"
Gallo explains:
"Buying paint, the first thing I did when I picked up Amiya was to give her a beautiful blue and white paint."
"Also, you can change Amiya's paint by the way, doesn't it want to be pretty? How about a unique red and green color scheme? ”
The old bishop hurriedly grabbed him, and then persuaded:
"Let's skip the painting step and move on to the next step..."
Gallo asked rhetorically:
"Huh? Is that okay? ”
"There's a saying in our hometown that 'painting gives souls', and this may be a key step in injecting souls, right?"
"Don't say goodbye, this is not your hometown, you should follow the customs."
Gallo was persuaded by the old bishop to skip the painting step.
After the painting, the next step was to pile up magic on Amiya.
At that time, he blessed Amiya with a lot of magic skills, making her movements more flexible, her steps lighter, and her physique stronger.
And one of the most critical magic techniques is-
Disguise Amiya's appearance as a little donkey!
So after concocting the same method on the rabbit ear girl, it also became flexible, light and strong.
But the appearance has also changed from a beautiful and lovely rabbit-eared girl to a little donkey...
And it's the kind of slender little donkey, so far less burly than Amiya, that it can be mistaken for a big black mule.
But after all this, the little donkey still did not get the soul, and was still like a puppet, motionless.
Even the operating feel has not improved, and he can only carry out the three commands of forward, stop and undress.
That last order was told to him by Mader yesterday, and Gallo had not yet found a chance to try it.
"You... You... You... See... Bar... Such... Really... No, I can't..."
Gallo kept fighting with his teeth and said with a shudder.
He then turned his head to glare at Amiya, who was shaking his arm vigorously, and asked helplessly:
"You... You... You... Shake... I... Arm... Why? ”
After he turned the rabbit-eared lady into a little donkey, Amiya looked a little anxious and dissatisfied, shaking his arm vigorously, as if begging for something.
If you change to Lilian Luo, Dumb, or Captain and Youlan to do this kind of action, it will look cute and clingy, and people can't help but meet their requirements.
But if you change to Amiya, you will feel the discomfort of falling apart...
Gallo tried to pull out his arm, but where could his strength compare to Amiya's?
"Wow! Other... Other... Shake up... Someone is going to die! ”
"I... I... It's... Put it... Change back..."
It wasn't until Gallo dispelled the magic on Rabbit Ear Lady and made it beautiful and lovely again that Amiya stopped.
In short, the attempt failed.
Is it true that only gods can do such a thing?
But whether it was Gallo, the old bishop, or even Amiya herself, they forgot a very small detail at the beginning:
Gallo gave Amiya a name...
