Chapter 5: Mythological Duel
The sun-like magical brilliance was split in half by the purple flames in Arjuna's palm, and Mathieu hurriedly pressed his senior under him, and Leonidas stepped on her shield, using his own shield to form a second line of defense.
In a dazzling golden light, the sun-like man was floating in the sky, his back was like wings, unfolding a circle of red equipment that I don't know what it was, spraying the magic of fire all over his body, and slowly landing.
Arjuna responded in advance, the ball of light in his hand resisted most of the impact, and Moriarty crawled out from under Fujimaru Rika's shield and exclaimed, "Scared me to death, this is not good for the heart." What if I have a heart attack - I'm glad I don't have a heart attack. ”
It's just that at this time, he deliberately acted stupidly but didn't get any response.
Arjuna and the fallen man looked at each other, neither of them making the next attack.
Someone who comes, I guess maybe it's a lancer.
For he was holding in his hand a very large golden spear, with the steps of the blade, and a large black piece that seemed to be the blade of a spear, and this spear was longer and larger than the man who carried it.
"I thought it might be you."
The white-haired man who was slowly falling said.
Arjuna answered, staring at each other tightly with a pair of eyes: "I also have a feeling that I will meet you in a special point." ”
"Well, what's going on now? Can someone explain this to me? ”
Fujimaru Rika hadn't figured out the situation yet, and was pressed under the shield by Matthew, so she could only ask weakly.
"It's rude. At the request of President Wang, I have invited the last savior of mankind to the United States of America to speak in detail with His Excellency President Wang. But...... Unexpectedly. I'll meet you here. ”
Fujimaru Rika looked at the other party's tone and demeanor, and always felt that he didn't seem to be the kind of person who couldn't be reasonable.
Of course, he has a cold attitude and is good-looking, and he belongs to the iceberg beauty that Fujimaru Rika likes, which is another matter, and there is no plus point for this first impression at all!
"Arjuna, who is he?"
Rika Fujimaru asked the people who were clearly best aware of each other.
"Karna."
Arjuna pondered for a moment, and finally added, "It's my old enemy." ”
"I'm honored."
Karna nodded in agreement.
"But I'm not here to fight you, I'm here to invite the last savior of humanity. Meantime...... President Wang also asked me to bring a message to Professor Tesla. ”
Karna said, coughing twice and clearing his throat, obviously lowering his voice, "[You seem to be playing with funny toys] That's it." ”
"That mediocrity!!"
Tesla was obviously so angry that his research institute was blown up by this hero who didn't know where he came from, and if it weren't for the giant god Babbage reaching out to block him, he would have been wiped out by this sun-like blow.
This is what infuriates Tesla the most.
If it is said that he was compared to the invention of that mediocre talent, although he is on fire, but this is also the practice of civilized people, and this is also the collision of wisdom and wisdom.
As a result, that guy actually instigated his subordinates to bomb his own research institute?! Assassinate yourself...... No, no, this is simply a killing!
"Oh."
Fujimaru Rika responded and asked Moriarty directly: "Professor, shall we go?" ”
Since Moriarty arrived, Rika Fujimaru has shown more and more abandonment of thinking.
The current situation is divided into two situations: Moriarty's side and Moriarty's side.
If you are around, ask directly, and if you are not around, send a message to ask.
Rikka also discovered that she was just an ordinary female high school student, and it was better to leave this kind of trickery to a professional like Moriarty! Just obediently watch the big guy pretend to be forced. Anyway, I can't think of a conspiracy, and I can't see through it, so leave it to a professional conspirator.
Moriarty stroked his beard and smiled, "Then go ahead." It's just a conversation, anyway. ”
This was said easily, Fujimaru Rika repeated it, and Karna and Arjuna let down their guard at the same time.
I saw that the Karna spear disappeared all at once, and the golden body of the spear was broken into several parts, and it was attached to him.
Arjuna lowered her bow as well, and both of them fell silent.
"Don't they have a good relationship?"
Rika Fujimaru asked Yukisai in a low voice.
Why do you ask him? I always feel like this kind of dead house will know strange knowledge.
"Ah...... If you ask if the relationship is good, it probably feels like a sworn enemy. It's like the relationship between the Shinsengumi and the Restoration. ”
Yagi used a prime example.
The Shinsengumi has been selected as the theme for many film and television works. But in essence, it was a group of people who maintained the corrupt rule of the shogunate. Nature ran counter to the reformists who were motivated to overthrow the shogunate.
But is the Shinsengumi wrong? Are the reformers wrong again?
The answer is all no.
Because from the perspective of both sides, without the ability to predict the future, both sides can only judge for themselves what is best. Both sides believe that only their own actions can save Japan.
It's just that in the end, the Shinsengumi lost.
In the same way, the story of Arjuna and Karna is the same.
Hindu mythology is already grandiose, coupled with the fact that the customs are too far away from foreigners, it is difficult to read, and the story of Arjuna and Karna is too complex to judge who is right and who is wrong. It can only be determined that the two sides are opposed.
To explain, it is an Indian version of the prince's revenge, with the element of "god". To summarize simply, there were two reasonable heirs to the throne in ancient times, one with five sons who were brave and invincible, that is, Arjuna's father. One is a man who has hundreds of sons. Then the two sides began a kingdom scramble. In short, Arjuna and the others were exiled for twelve years because they lost their gambling and then came back to regain the throne.
No matter how you hear it, it's like the hero.。
So, what about Karna?
He was Arjuna's mother's earlier child, Arjuna's older brother, and his own half-brother.
By the way, Arjuna's mother, who was prophesied to marry a barren man (i.e., Arjuna's father) before she got married, learned a spell that could communicate with the gods and give birth to the sons of the gods. It was to test the effectiveness of the spell that she gave birth to Karna with the sun god. But it is difficult to explain the fact that she was pregnant out of wedlock, and she had to abandon Karna.
In this sense, Karna is very much like the main character.
Of course, as mentioned earlier, Arjuna's father is infertile, and the myth says that if you have sex, you will die, so Arjuna is the son of [Thunder God Indra].
Yagi Yukisai tried to make up the mythological knowledge after Arjuna came. When he made up for it, the more messy it became, and in the end, he didn't remember anything except for this messy relationship...... To sum up, Arjuna's mother and the sun god gave birth to their brother Karna. Then Arjuna's mother and the god of thunder gave birth to Arjuna. Arjuna's father unknowingly has two hats that can be changed, which really makes Yagi sigh.
He could no longer look at Hindu mythology from an upright perspective.
