CHAPTER XLIV

The sudden scene surprised everyone. Shortly after Kevin jumps, MONOCULUS's restraints are unleashed. Breaking free, Joshua stared at Lufina with a wary expression, fearing that she would use the Eye again.

"Don't be nervous, my MONOCULUS is just a 'concept', not a real MONOCULUS, and it can only restrain people for a short time. And it can no longer be used for a short time. Lufina smiled slightly, still with a face full of equinox.

But Joshua had no intention of relaxing. Even if it's a concept, it's really used. The Monoculus is not an ordinary skill, and even if it is a Body-Eating Snake, few people can use it. What's more, she said that she only relied on the skills created by the concept, so how many powerful concepts does she have?

"Relax Joshua, that guy is a treasure of the church, if he hadn't died, he would probably have been a high-level member of the church by now, but he was a lot higher than Kevin." Ike relaxed, and sat down on the ground to look at Lufina. "I remember you had bishop-level authority six years ago, right?"

"Hehe, it's really an honor to be complimented by riding a gun." Rufina said with a smile, but did not deny Ike's claim.

"So, what are you trying to do now that you're unraveling us?" Ike glanced at the direction of the crack that had been sealed, "Kevin, the place where they fell should be the one your church said, right?" ”

"You know a lot."

"After all, I've had a lot of dealings with churches before." Ike sighed, "I didn't expect this broken world to really make such a thing." ”

"Nope." Lufina shook her head, "It is precisely because of the incompleteness and the instability of various attributes that this place exists, and a stable time and space will not easily create such a huge place." ”

"That's right, but I really didn't expect you to be able to make such a real world alone." Ike stared at Rufina, "How much do you know about the so-called 'world'?" ”

It's terrifying, even if a person has the power to make the world, but if you want to really make it, you can't simply have the power, the complexity of it, the energy, wisdom and understanding of the world required. It is the combination of these abilities that can make the world. And this guy in front of him has done something that is difficult for the world to accomplish by himself, although there are some flaws, but it is enough to shock.

"Hehe, strictly speaking, it's not just my credit, most of the 'concepts' are still done by Kevin's inadvertent completion, after all, I've been dead for six years, and I don't know a lot of things. The rest... But it's a corporate secret. It's not a good thing to get a girl's secret like this. Lufina replied with a smile.

"If you don't want to say it, forget it." Ike didn't need to ask questions, for this kind of person, if she didn't want to tell, she had a thousand lies that you could believe against you. This reminded Ike of the prime minister in the Empire. "The second question, if you borrow your concept, can you 'wake up' all the dead?"

"Ahhh~ Do you even have someone you are looking for?" Rufina was a little surprised, "But I can't, after all, I don't have the concept of people you said, and I can't read your thoughts, don't talk about you, even Kevin's current thoughts can't work, so in the end, I just at the moment when Kevin left the Ring of Radiance, the concept generated in the subconscious of Kevin, who was possessed by the power of the Ring of Radiance, the moment the consciousness was separated, the things I knew were already fixed, and there were few people in this world who could do it." ”

"But 'you' can do it." Ike stared at Lufina and said word by word, "If you have cognition, and then use the power that you can generate the world, it is very easy to reawaken, no, reconstruct a person." ”

"You're not constructing concepts in this world, are you?" Rufina's eyes revealed a hint of fierceness, "It is the duty of the gods to bring the dead back to life, and this is not an ability that humans can use. ”

"Are you saying that you yourself are God?" Ike taunted.

"It's different, I'm just a concept, it can't exist in reality for a long time, not to mention anything else, it's this world, maybe it can only be supported for three or five years, and it takes a lot of power to construct a concept, especially the concept related to life, which is definitely not something that one person can bear.

"In other words, as long as you find a force that is enough to support the structure, plus the power of the construction concept, you can do it." Ike's eyes flickered.

"Are you... Lufina seemed to understand something, and her face changed, "Is this the reason why you need the Goddess Arcana!" ”

"No, it's just their reason." Ike gave Lufina a meaningful look and said no more.

The scene was silent, no one spoke again, and there was no atmosphere of speaking again, and after a long silence, Ike suddenly looked up at Lufina floating in the sky.

"Are all the two of us old friends who haven't seen each other for a long time going to sit here and wait for Kevin to climb up?"

“。。。。。。 Strictly speaking, I'm just a concept, and I don't need to eat or drink. Rufina didn't continue the conversation, but reached out to the void, and with an extra jug of wine out of thin air, she gently pushed it towards Ike. The flask defied gravity and flew smoothly in front of Ike, "But you seem to be sure that Kevin will come back." ”

"Isn't that what you think?" Ike took the flask and opened the lid and sniffed inside, "A heretical sanctioner who has the ability to crawl out, and a sister who doesn't want to kill him." I can't see why he didn't come up. ”

"Interesting idea, but are you afraid that I'm going to be poisoned?"

"No, I'm just curious that you guys who don't drink alcohol make it taste like this by concept." Ike frowned a little, took a big sip of it, and then threw it on the ground casually, "It's really hard to drink." ”

“。。。。。。”

Rarely, the smile on Lufina's face, who was originally smiling, appeared a pause, and the flask suddenly disappeared, looking at Ike for a long time, and then sighed softly and disappeared from the sight of the two.

"Let's go, Joshua." Ike sat up from the floor, patted his ass and walked up the stairs.

"What the hell are you doing?" Joshua was a little confused.

"What else can I do, of course, the conversation has collapsed." Ike was a little helpless, "I was hoping to find out some news." It's just that that guy is a thousand wrists, and she knows all my thoughts, and in the end the conversation collapsed and had to leave. ”

"What the hell are Mr. Kevin and Miss Liss going to do?" Joshua asked.

"The strength of the two of them doesn't have to worry about survival." Ike frowned, "I'm afraid it's going to be difficult to come back." After all, the purgatory that the church calls is a place dedicated to banishing the souls of sinners and being ruled by demons. If nothing else, the purgatory door is not something that anyone inside can open. ”

"Ike, how can you be so familiar?"

"Please, it was the Iron Fleet that dealt with the church back then." Ike had no choice but to "go back to everyone for now, maybe that soul may have some way, after all, she is also one of the natives of this world, one of the people who know this place best." ”

After walking a few steps briskly towards the stairs, he suddenly turned around and looked at Joshua with a strange expression, "I said... They took the ashlar, right? ”

"That's right." Joshua looked strange, and then his face changed, as if he understood what Ike was trying to say, "The nearest teleportation monument is on the street.

"Then Joshua ... Do you recognize the road in the fog? ”
