Intermission EL

There is no evidence, but this memory should not belong to him who has only been born for fifteen years.

He heard someone talking.

"Please. I know it's hard, but I have a gut feeling that I must have forgotten what was most important to me. ”

"Forgotten memory lapses may be kept in the 'cloud' in the form of records...... But I think...... If I promise you, I will definitely regret it in the end......"

The words between men and women are as subtle as whispers, and they are only like a breeze. If you don't pay attention, you won't even notice at all. But when these words drifted by, the ensuing scenery was indeed like a mirage being blown away.

The land of loess, the city of loess. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it exists in Japan. If anything, it's a bit like somewhere in the Middle East.

It can be confirmed here that this is indeed absolutely impossible for him to remember. In his memory, although he had the experience of going abroad, he had never been to such a place.

But at this time, it is not the land that can be ignored, but the sky that covers the entire land.

The night sky was as hot as fire, as gloomy as the clouds, and as windy as the wind.

Above the dark sky, between the layers of dense clouds, a faint spot was getting bigger and bigger.

Like a hundred-headed Typhon (typhoon) staring into the eyes of the Nether, there seems to be a small figure hiding in it.

Even considering the proportion of the upward gaze, that figure definitely does not look burly, and can even be delicate. Because of this, it is easy to associate the image of women. However, it will definitely not be the women we know every day.

An ordinary woman would never have a trace of six long prismatic lights on her side. At a glance, it even gives people the illusion that "she" has wings.

"Now, I ask you—"

In the sky, an unheard, beautiful but emotionless female voice quietly descended. Even though he didn't use any known language, he could understand it inexplicably.

"Who do you want me to be you?"

She didn't know who she was talking to, and no one answered her questions, except for the male voice she had heard before.

"'—she dreamed of the world.' ”

The light in the sky finally broke through the clouds, and the light turned into a ten-meter-thick pillar of light, hitting the yellow land straight.

The white light was like a flash of light in the center of a nuclear explosion, beyond the reach of the sun. The light was like a wave that quickly swallowed everything, but silently. The yellow earth, along with the low houses scattered on the ground, including everything shrouded in light, shattered and disappeared in an instant, leaving not even a trace.

He was stunned by the sheer power of the force. But what shocked him even more was that even under this power that might destroy everything, the small figure of a woman still existed there. Clearly at the center of this destructive force, the figure still existed for no reason.

In a trance, he seemed to hear the male voice saying something again. This time, however, it was as if it were a murmur that it was impossible to distinguish the content.

"You're doing well enough, because I still have some content to add. When I'm done with all the content, those who are chosen will be able to recognize the words through you. ”

Is this an answer? After the question that could not be distinguished, the female voice said.

"I'm not Hermas...... Don't underestimate people......"

The weak male voice responded with a tone that bordered on resentment.

"Hermas......" repeated the name in a low voice, and the slender figure that was vaguely in shape shook slightly, as if it remembered something because of the words. That's just a lie. Hermas only wanted to convey but never pursued, and I was no more special than Hermas at that time. He merely copied my teachings, and others copied my teachings, and later generations copied my teachings that others copied and copied me, and so on until they were unrecognizable or even forgotten. I exist only out of necessity in this process, and there is no such thing as 'subjectivity'. ”

"Do you think I'll forgive you by saying that?"

"I don't mean that." A sound similar to a sigh sounded, and the vague form moved. Is it shaking your head? It's hard to tell. "You should know that forgiveness is not my authority, and I don't need forgiveness from others. It is my duty to give, and then forget, as the shepherd left a record. Even if the record has been tampered with countless times over the years, it has nothing to do with me. But if it's you, I'm special. Not for any other reason, but because you think of me and touch me, and that's why I'm special. In my case, there is a 'subjectivity' that I have never had. That's the message you gave me ...... 'you'. ”

The tongue twister-like wording, the blurred figure's chest swayed slightly, and "she" seemed to be putting her hands on her chest.

"Nope! We didn't give you anything! That's what you took without permission! It doesn't belong to you at all! ”

Suddenly, the male voice roared at a staggering volume.

"'Unauthorized'...... What a boring word. However, the vague figure exhaled listlessly - this was the first time that "she" showed a trace of "subjective" emotion. "Answer me, don't you feel contradictory? Don't you really think there's a fatal paradox in this? Answer me, how can I, who had never had such a concept of 'subjectivity' before, go to 'arbitrariness'? Come, right now, right in front of 'me', answer me! ”

For the first time, the vague and delicate figure was tainted with an aura close to that of a human. As if refuted by this figure, the male voice didn't answer this time.

"It is difficult to face reality, 'I' is the real 'me', and it is absolutely impossible for people to take anything away from themselves. Although people will change because of learning, they will never become something that is not themselves because of this—even if it changes from 'me' to 'we'. 'I' changed, yes, I admit it. I've definitely changed compared to the 'me' you know. Whether I take the initiative to change or am changed, I always change. But does 'me' become something that isn't 'me' because of this? No, that's impossible. ”

The beautiful female voice breathed a sigh of relief and continued, as if she were singing.

"That's the evidence, the conclusive evidence. It is precisely because 'I' is still 'me' that you are special. If you need me, I can be the person you need. I can be your lover, or sister, or mother, or daughter, or benefactor, or enemy, or friend, or enemy...... I can be everything you need me to be, as long as you need me to be like that. So now I ask you - you, who do you want me to be you? ”

It was a dream, he knew.

It doesn't belong to him, and he can't find out who it belongs to. Perhaps, even the content of the dream has been distorted by the mixed noise. But undoubtedly, that should be someone's memory. The memory now became a dream, appearing in his consciousness.

The helpless and low mood in the dream has lingered in my heart for a long time and has never dissipated. Only when you hear the words of the vague figure will you feel awake.

It's like you've been saved—that feeling.

The library is also very quiet today.

In the era of highly developed electronic technology, libraries have more or less lost some of the meaning they once had. And as a school consortium, the school city, unless it is at the end of the holidays, most students will naturally choose to sing the praises of youth, and few people will want to patronize the library.

"-I didn't expect you to be able to do this so quickly."

The voice of the voice software was heard. However, there was no one around, not even the breath of a human being. But there's nothing surprising about that.

Obviously there was no one in front of her, but the girl slowly shook her head to the sides with a blank expression.

"I'm sorry, but because I care, I guess I put too much energy into it."

There was something weak in the words. While it is true that there is some element of sleepiness, there is also a considerable degree of uncertainty in one's conclusions.

"Fool, I'm complimenting you."

"Even if you say so......"

The girl tilted her head slightly.

"'It's not something that comes in right away,' didn't you say that?" (After thinking about it, I decided to omit the oral fetish)

"I said so, but you seem to have some misunderstanding of my words somewhere. I'm not saying you're mistaken, and I'm certainly not doubting your abilities. When I say not immediately useful, I mean that there's no guarantee that what you're hearing is actually from the person you're looking for. What's more, even if it does come from the person you're communicating with, there's no guarantee that the message won't be distorted in the process. Listen to me, don't feel like it's unimportant, and don't put your ideas into action when nothing is certain. In the field of information, differences are not necessarily linear, and even small differences can have an immeasurable impact on the outcome, sometimes even changing the entire history of mankind. ”

“?”

The girl tilted her head. Although I didn't mean to doubt it, I still felt that such a description was too alarmist.

"I must warn you that while a small deviation does not turn one thing into another, it can have very serious consequences. Perhaps the most impactful information error in history can be ranked in 1 Timothy 3:16, which refers to Christ as "the manifestation of God in the flesh and the justification of the Holy Spirit." The interpretation of this sentence is an eternal subject in the field of theology, and even one of the most important events in human history, the split between the East and the West, if traced back to it, also began from here. BUT THE PHRASE ITSELF IS JUST A SMALL ALTERATION OF THE MESSAGE—SOMEONE HAS INTENTIONALLY OR UNINTENTIONALLY ADDED A DASH TO THE GREEK ΟΣ TO MAKE 'THE ONE' (ΟΣ) BECOME 'GOD' (ΘΣ) (NOTE 1). If we had the technology to identify inks back then, how many historical events would have changed beyond recognition in the future? See, it's just such a small change, and although it doesn't make 1 Timothy anything else, it does change the entire history of mankind, so don't ignore the possibility of this kind of tampering. I guess you should also find that your abilities are very special, right? Don't underestimate your own value, and you need to be somewhat defensive about your abilities. ”

"I'll be careful, thank you very much for the reminder."

More or less, the girl still feels a lack of reality about it. Although I can understand what the other person is saying, it is difficult to fully agree with it. But in any case, she admitted that the other party's words did have some truth and were indeed well-intentioned.

"I think it's a little strange to say, why are you desperately trying to avoid a friend, but desperately looking for another friend? Isn't that a contradiction? ”

Why? Actually, I don't know why. Lost...... Perhaps such words can be used to describe their own actions.

Is there any difference between these two friends?

Looks, personalities, blah blah, no one will be the same, right? Do you care about such superficial things? No way.

Is there a difference in the importance of the two of them in their own minds? Apparently not.

Ah, to say something different, she actually knows.

It's because there's a person who attracts you. Then, some kind of strange feelings developed.

Why hide from friends? It's not that she's avoiding her friend herself, but she's avoiding a possibility she doesn't want to face.

In fact, I know it very well. The person who attracts him is because his friends pay attention to him. For girls, this kind of thing can be seen through at a glance......

If you get an answer from a friend, whether the answer is yes or no, you won't be able to live.

So as long as you don't meet friends, you don't have to worry about this possibility.

However, even if it's just delusional, I want to imagine myself being cared for by someone I care about. As a result, the face suddenly warmed up.

Ahh If you think about it any longer, you won't be able to deceive yourself......

The girl involuntarily shook her head desperately to dispel the heat on her face, and shook it until it seemed as if the earth was trembling.

Suddenly, her legs went limp, and the chair fell on top of her.

Wrong! This is not a dizziness caused by shaking the head, but a real result of the shaking of the earth.

=======================================

Note 1: This far-reaching change occurred in Codex Alexander, one of the three major ancient codexes. This section is the first focus of the Christian doctrine of the Trinity. It is conceivable that if Jesus had never been referred to as "God" in the New Testament, then the entire doctrine of the Trinity would not have been valid. And we know that the fuse of the Great Schism between the Eastern and Western Churches was the "Trinity Controversy", which resulted in a complete split between Catholicism and the Orthodox Church. But if the doctrine of the Trinity itself has no basis in the New Testament, then this split is a joke in its entirety. But modern discriminators do point out that the horizontal line on Θ "is different from the other letters", which is a complete human tampering!

It is important to note that almost all of the Bible passages we now see about the "doctrine of the Trinity" are suspected of being tampered with. This section of 1 Timothy has far-reaching implications, but the most ridiculous tampering associated with it appears in 1 John 5. The process was so ridiculous that a large number of devout Christians simply removed the alteration as it was.

Let's look at 1 John 5:7, which is read in many versions, including the King James Version: For_there_are_three_that_bear_record_in_heaven, _the_Father, _the_Word, _and_the_Holy_Ghost:and_these_three_are_one. Speaking of the Holy Spirit. All three are one). As many people may have guessed, this paragraph itself does not exist, and it was also added for posterity. I guess everyone is no stranger to the matter of tampering with the Bible by now. But why do I say this verse is ridiculous? For there is something at stake in what seems to us to be almost shocking: in the 16th century, a Catholic scholar Eramus tried to publish a Greek Bible that listed as many ancient manuscripts as possible, and his version of the Bible was so important that it seems to be the basis for the later King James Version. When his Greek Bible was published, there was no such account of the Trinity in 1 John—there was no such passage in the ancient manuscripts. This led Eramus to a great deal of attack, and the attack caused the scholar to make a statement in anger that if anyone could provide a Greek transcript, he would add the passage on the Trinity. As a result, you can guess what happened - he did receive a copy of the Greek, and someone had translated Latin into Greek and added it to a homemade manuscript, because Eramus did not seem to say that it had to be the original "Codex of Greek"!

This history has made even a number of devout Christians feel unacceptable to such blatant falsification, and so to this day there are many omissions from 1 John to this section. In fact, for our countrymen, this section has been completely deleted from the most commonly seen CUV, and you can check for yourself the difference between the CUV and the KJV to see if this is the case. This event is still mentioned repeatedly by people, even Christian scholars themselves, and almost every Christian book that mentions the doctrine of the Trinity devotes a great deal of space to this laughable history.
