238 Friends. Is it?

bgm: My All (Hamasaki)

In one classroom, seven chairs are neatly arranged in a circle, spaced at the same distance from each other.

At the moment, four seats are empty, and they look very deserted.

This is the daily meeting place of the Supreme Council of the Academy.,In the absence of the chairman.,Prime Minister of all matters of the Academy.。

In other words, the people who sit in these seven seats determine the fate of all pan-human beings in this world, except for the believers in the gods.

Very exaggerated right.

The highest degree of centralization.

Of course, this is fundamentally different from the rulers of the mortal kingdoms.

These predecessors, or perhaps themselves, realized that the collective wisdom of the pan-human whole did not possess their own unique level of thinking, and they decisively chose to dictate the autocracy.

This is not a pejorative term.

The generation gap brought about by the life level is too huge, and after so many years away from the gods, he said that people have long forgotten the past and only regarded them as myths, so that the rationality of the general society can no longer accommodate and accept such thingsβ€”these things are like yesterday to the ancient transcendents.

Put the world in the hands of this group of people?

Most of the previous parliamentarians said that they had nothing to do with themselves, but in this way, they were completely enemies, and finally became the protectors of all pan-human beings for this euphemistic reason.

If it weren't for the fact that the councillors were all old monsters left over from history fighting against the gods from ancient times to the present, the appearance of this council would be just a simple idea of huddling together for warmth.

These people are completely stars in the sky for the watch world, and it would be great if they could consider the problem from the same perspective of thinking and interests, but if the former, these almost inhuman guys, are not guilty of human interests and pursue their own first pursuit, then it is also a forgivable thing, understandable, it is too natural.

Perhaps social living is a common trait of intelligent beings, and after being influenced by human nature, the current paradise also presents a similar power structure and organizational form.

Merely.. There is only one reason for this "just".

There is only one reason for these high-ranking people who have no desire for power or anything like that to become in power, and that is to entangled with the gods and hatred or something else.

INTERVIEWER Since there is a problem at this level, the purpose of the existence of this parliament is not just to keep warm or anything, but to use a more purposeful and aggressive ideology as the guiding ideology.

。。。。。。

"So, back here, isn't it out of personal desire? Is it any different from the average dictator?"

Magpie sat on the couch, and Akijin also sat quietly next to him.

The two listened as Lily told the story of the Supreme Council.

Carrying a white porcelain cup filled with boiled water, Magpie looked at the clear liquid with some distraction, and then took a sip lightly, as if he was drinking his favorite sweet coffee.

"Hmm... Maybe the master said it was similar, but it was just an image. ”

"What's the difference?"

"Those peopleβ€”no, although we are manipulating the direction of the pan-human out of our own desires, there is no phenomenon that the collective consciousness of the pan-human is controlled by us. ”

It's still a sweet child's voice, but the tone always gives people a feeling of depression and longevity, as if traveling through time and space and seeing the world of endless years.

"And it's not like everyone is so bent on destroying Paradise. ”

"At least... Master, it's more important than anything else when you're back, I don't want to get involved in that kind of thing anymore, so it's okay anyway. ”

β€œγ€‚γ€‚ But alas, at least now and in the near future, I'll be involved for a while. ”

Magpie finally drank the small glass of water, exhaled, and gently placed the white porcelain cup on the table.

"It won't be long, but my plan will take a while to complete. ”

"Plan?"

"Well, as for my little idea, if it can be done, this won't be so much trouble. ”

Magpie nodded earnestly.

"The master is still the same as before. Occasionally say something so incredible and then really get to work. ”

"Is that so?"

"Hmm. The girl's tone was affirmative.

"If you think about it, it's like something I would do. ”

"That... ”

Autumn God raised his right hand to indicate that he had a doubt.

The usually taciturn and tranquil girl had curiosity written on her face.

After this incident, Akigami may have said goodbye to his former self.

Magpie looked at her with a smile, "Oh, there seems to be something wrong with Akijin-san, so please ask the smart, cute, and omniscient teacher Lily." ”

"Hmm... I'm glad that the master can say that, but... I'm still a little shy.。。 ”

Hey, what do you think, that's all polite words, right?

How can there be an all-knowing and all-powerful guy in this world?

。。。

Probably not, right?

"That. . . Is it called Lily?I woke up a little dazed and forgot to ask your name, sorry. ”

"Ahh ”

"Lily... Lily.. I always feel like I've heard it somewhere... "Fairy tale"?"

Qiu Shen suddenly slapped his palm, and his face showed a look of epiphany, and he was very surprised.

Speaking of which, this guy used to admire the appearance of the school crown.。

Magpie held his chin with one hand and watched the two girls in front of him talk.

I don't know how this girl will react when I kill BB, it must be interesting, right?

"Someone did call me that... But that could be another "Lily", I don't know. ”

The ball of yarn spun around in the air a few times, then hit the ceiling and bounced off, denting directly into the couch.

"Really. . . Now, magpie, I've seen Crown with my own eyes. ”

Qiu Shen said and pulled Laque's arm, with a happy look on his face, but there was not much surprise.

Magpie inexplicably felt that if it wasn't for Lily here, maybe he wouldn't even be happy.

Autumn God. It's really a bit of a big change, obviously I was so excited to tell me before.

"Well, that's it, do you have any other questions?"

"Really, magpie didn't react at all? This is a fairy tale!"

"So what's wrong?" magpie glanced at the ball of yarn bouncing excitedly in the sky.

Although he has always maintained a mature and steady attitude, Magpie can feel that Lily is inexplicably happy after being worshiped by the autumn god.

"Thank you for saying that. ”

"That's right, and, since you're a master. Friend, just call me Lily. ”

The word "friend" is deliberately emphasized.

"You see, Lily said so, there's nothing to make a fuss about. Magpie rubbed his neck and looked at the ball of yarn.

It feels weird

Qiu Shen looked at the ball of yarn in front of him, and a trace of doubt flashed in the depths of his eyes.

Lily had a little kindness towards her, but when the word "friend" was mentioned, this vague kindness dissipated.

All that's left is an icy feeling.

。。 And... "Friends"?
