Chapter 556: Two Sides of the Coin [Finale]
The room is incredibly gently furnished and feels calm and warm.
Belina didn't even react for a moment.
She woke up suddenly, remembered her purpose, took a step forward, and found that her feet and arms had recovered.
What is this place?
Belina frowned, took a few steps inside, and then, saw the young man sitting in a chair.
"Oh, you're here, sure enough...... You're here anyway. ”
"You...... Who is it? ”
"Me? I am the will of this world, and I am what you call a god. ”
Thirteen said indifferently.
He got up, dragged Belina over a chair rather gentlemanly, and pressed her against the chair.
"Don't worry, you have completed your mission and stood in front of me, when the gods alternate, time stands still, you don't have to worry about the people you care about in that world."
Belina: "Do you know the head of the group?" ”
This is nonsense, you only know when you say it, the other party is a god, how can you not know.
"Oh, I don't know, but the people who come here are all people who care, maybe to save the world, maybe to love it, anyway...... That's all it. Thirteen gracefully poured tea for the teacup in front of Belina, and the red tea leaves entered the teacup, and the mist spread above it.
Belina didn't even know when such tea was available.
"Then the gods! Can I take your place! I have people who have to be saved!! ”
"Oh, of course, but before I take over from me, I have to tell you the rules that govern all the worlds, you have to listen carefully, if you don't even know this, you can't be a qualified god, just like me."
Thirteen took a deep breath, as if he was going to do something boring, and readjusted his posture and mood.
"Candidate, you are the kind of person I have ever met with more quality, many people always want to question me some questions when they see me, and their emotions are very intense. At that time, I was really helpless, I couldn't understand their feelings at all, not because I didn't want to, but because I couldn't, just like you pity the life and death of ants, you can know that they are very uncomfortable, but you can't empathize. ”
Belina frowned, obviously unhappy with the other party's persuasion.
"Don't do that, listen well, or even if you become a god, you will die quickly." Thirteen seemed to have insight into Belina's thoughts.
So Belina had to listen carefully, although she was very anxious, but since the other party said that time stood still, it should be okay, and it was unwise and useless to anger the other party.
"In short, the task of the gods is to gather faith."
"Faith?"
"Yes, the power of faith, that's critical. There are people in your world who believe in the god of light, and there are people who believe in the god of darkness, and the two factions have been arguing for thousands of years and waging war against each other, which god do you think I am? ”
Belina thought for a moment and replied hesitantly, "God of Light? ”
"Wrong, I am the only god, God is the only god, the god of light and the god of darkness are all me." Thirteen said expressionlessly, as if he had said this line many times, although in fact he had not said it a few times: "Because living beings are always selfish and ignorant, it is necessary to give them some miracles in order to make them unreservedly devotional, but more importantly, let them suffer a painful calamity after believing in the existence of God."
Because...... It is only when disaster strikes that people think of praying to the ethereal gods, which is also part of my work, and to put it bluntly, the war between the demon world and the outside world seems to me to be nothing more than a means to produce the power of faith. ”
"Don't get excited, I know you're going to get angry, but you'd better listen carefully, so that you don't do stupid things that hurt important people when you become gods. Right...... Okay, so I'll move on. ”
"The laws of this world, God is not an omniscient and omnipotent being, on the contrary, intelligence perceives a very small part, such as how much faith comes from the 'God of Light', and how much faith there is from the other side, so that the gods of this world can investigate and give conclusions, and then you create events that will promote history.
Be careful to watch out for intruders from other worlds, I asked the gods to call them demons, but they are not so, they are just people who have been sent by the gods of another world to take the power of faith, if they have gained a lot of faith power in this world, then you will lose control of this world, and the world will fall into evil...... In the hands of the god behind him.
So, all you have to do is kill the demons. ”
Belina's expression was ugly, although it was only a few words, but she had already touched the truth of this world.
Are the gods merciful?
Is it sinful? Or do you want the world to be a better place?
None of them, the gods were just doing something that seemed ordinary to him, and for that they had to pay a terrible price, and, Felik, he ...... It's someone from another world! If the mission of the gods is to kill demons, what about themselves? Do you have to kill demons when you become a god?
"Calm down, the demons are normal and easy to kill, and this time it was just my mistake, because most of my energy was focused on conquering other worlds, through the intruders I sent, which are my demons. In fact, as long as you are careful, not to mention conquering other worlds, it is very easy to protect your own world.
For example, if a demon crawls into your room, it's like an ant that you can't see unless it shows its destructive power or grows bigger and bigger. It's not scary for him to grow bigger and bigger, because when he grows to the size of a loaf of bread, he has to be discovered by you, he thinks he is strong, but in your opinion, will an ant the size of a loaf be strong? It's just that it's dirtier when it's crushed.
Of course, this time is a bit of an exception, this time the demon just came in a bit big, and my divine sense was all distributed, I didn't notice it, it's a serious mistake, you have to take it as a warning. ”
“……”
"Looks like you've got it, let's talk about other ......"
After that, Thirteen talked a lot, and Belina understood a lot.
"This is the truth of the world?"
When he heard this question, Thirteen was stunned, and then he shook his head.
"No, you're just closer to the truth."
"Do you know the truth?"
"I don't know, I'm also trying to explore, after all, God is just the administrator of this study, but as long as you have a little brain, you know that there is also the existence of appointing administrators and making rules for administrators. I've been looking for a long time, too. If you win, then after a while you will start looking for it, maybe 100,000 years, maybe 500,000 years. ”
"Win?"
"yes, now let's start gambling."
"Gambling?"
"Yes, flip the coin, if this coin is obverse, then I am still a god, if it is the tail, you will take my place." Thirteen took out the coin and showed it to Belina.
Belina stopped in surprise: "Wait a minute! This is too sloppy! ”
"Forgive me, God has rules for being bound, and these are my rules."
“…… What happens if you lose? ”
"I will disappear, without a trace, not even the concept of a soul, if you lose then you will become a guardian in the abyss, anyone who fails to challenge will become a guardian, and liberating the abyss is the last resort to protect the world from being taken away, after using this you will lose control of the world until this era is cleaned up and the demon is killed by the abyss guardians."
Belina understood why Felik's father, Euglas, had become like that.
I'm afraid that Euglas also arrived at this place before this, but that time, the coin was cast on the reverse side.
"Still have questions?"
Belina nodded lightly and asked her doubts: "Well, there is another one, which is the Truth Thing and the King's Seal." ”
Thirteen smiled slightly, shrugged his shoulders and expressed helplessness.
"No way, this is the rule set by an existence that is more powerful than me, the truth is a killer weapon, destroy the strength criterion inside, so that the weakest person also has a chance to become the strongest in an instant, and the seal of the king is a kind of recognition. In short, it is used to select people who are more like gods than the current gods, and only then will the power of faith be collected more efficiently.
It wasn't created by me, it's just a fixed prop for this world to change gods, and if you win, remember to hide these two things well, at least to make your tenure longer, isn't it, and it would be better if you could be promoted before you disappear. Thirteen said it lightly, but it was actually very bitter: "In the end, everyone is just a chess piece." If you still have questions, I wrote notes that you can read...... After winning. ”
As he spoke, Thirteen made a gesture to toss a coin.
"Wait a minute!"
Thirteen didn't listen to Belina, and he smiled and tossed the coin, which rose in the air.
Belina watched as the coin rose and swirled in the air, spinning and shaking like a disc, spinning and tumbling for a few brief seconds that seemed like centuries, and then the coin fell and fell on the table, spinning and spinning......
Constantly spinning......
Keeps slowing down......
Then stop, declare your side above, and announce the final result.
Thirteen smiled, and Belina apprehensively.
"So, let's see the results."
……
(End of book)
[Yes, that's right, it's over, and it's not unfinished.]
It's just that the story has come to an end, and all the previous holes have been filled, right, you can look back and know. Maybe everyone will be a little unsatisfied, it doesn't matter, the story will continue after that, in other books, but they are not the protagonists anymore. Just like Su Ming from the previous book is not the protagonist in this book.
I would have liked to keep writing.
What are the results of the coins?
If Belina becomes a god, what will she do with Felik the demon as a god?
Is Felik dead? If he hadn't died, his mission would be the opposite of Belina's, what would he do, and would he continue to work towards his goal of becoming the king of the world?
What will happen after Belina is manipulated by other gods and may be used as a bargaining chip against Belina, and the two are unaware of each other's situation.
Will Felik die and Belina continue to be a god, or will Felik become the new administrator of another god, and Belina disappears, or will she find another way to find a different path?
Bellina is dead, Felik is alive: King of the World line
Felik Dead, Bellina Alive: God's War Line
All Dead: Anno Restart Line
Full Live: Love and Kill Line
None of this is certain, only Agnes is dead.
The suspense left at the end of this book is very suspenseful, right, in order to let everyone see that the end of this suspense is not particularly suspenseful, so I just asked questions to promote everyone's thinking and give you a general direction of imagination.
That's it, there may be extras, there may not be, it depends on the mood......
I'm going to prepare a new book, and I'm thinking about whether it's a brand new book or a successor to this one, and I'll probably make a decision in the near future. 】
