"Why is it thundering and raining?"

"Because there is so much charge accumulated in the clouds, when two dark clouds come close, there is a discharge phenomenon, just like when we rub a glass rod with our fur, and a large amount of charge is released...... It rains because the water on the earth, like rivers, lakes, and seas, is evaporated into water vapor, and the water vapor flies and flies and flies to the sky, and when it encounters cold air, it becomes water, and then it falls, and it becomes rain......"

"Then why is there winter and summer?"

This is probably because the earth under our feet is actually a big star, which is revolving around the sun, and the axis of rotation and the cross-section of the revolution are not vertical, so the sun is not fixed on a certain place on the ground, and when our earth revolves around the sun, the sun is also constantly deflecting back and forth on the north and south sides of the earth...... That's why there is winter and summer!"

"Then why do you wear a coat when it's cold and fan when it's hot......"

Sophie asks Carl a lot of questions like a curious baby, some of whom Carl knows the answer and some of whom he doesn't, but whether it's right or not, Carl makes up an answer that looks like that based on what he knows.

At this time, the benefits of rich knowledge are revealed, although I don't know whether the scientific knowledge of Carl's previous life is applicable in this world, but at least it seems that the head is the way, and the curious baby-like Sophie seems to be the first time that someone has answered her series of questions so seriously and systematically, and she is obviously very happy.

"Sir, have you ever been confused?"

After asking a series of questions about natural phenomena, Sophie looked up at Carl, a little confused, and a little entangled and troubled after thinking for a long time, and asked expectantly: "Do you know who you are, where do you come from, and what are you going to do in this world?"

Carl couldn't help but laugh in surprise, looking at Sophie's brows of trouble, looking puzzled, distressed and confused for a long time, and almost laughed out loud.

This little Sophie girl is not simple, and at such a young age, she has thought about the three ultimate questions of philosophy.

Who am I, where do I come from, and where am I going? These are the three ultimate propositions of Western philosophy, and they are unsolvable questions that countless philosophers have pondered all their lives and have not been able to answer. Thinking about these three questions is enough to write millions of words and create a vast philosophical system to answer it.

Karl couldn't answer this question to himself, but he wondered what Sophie's little head thought, how could she think of such a grand and esoteric philosophical proposition, and couldn't help asking, "Why do you think that?"

"I'm confused!"

Sophie frowned, staring at Carl as if she were looking in a mirror, and said with some annoyance, "I don't know who I am, no, no, it's not so much that I don't know who I am, but that I'm not sure who I am." I know my name is Sophie, but I'm not sure if that one is Me?"

"My dad told me that he had a lot of names for me when I was not born, and he wanted to call me Anne, Mary, Lisa, Elizabeth, Victoria, Margaret, or whatever. ”

"If my father had given me another name, not Sophie, but Annie, or something else, would I have become someone else?"

Looking at the tangled little girl, Carl couldn't help but feel entangled, the series of questions that the little girl was thinking about can't be wrong, but this kind of philosophical speculation involving the debate between name and fact, subject and object, is obviously able to toss normal people crazy, a little girl who is not yet an adult, is obviously not suitable for thinking about such a tossing problem.

However, to deal with this kind of little girl who has drilled the tip of the horns, it is obvious that you can't use normal methods to persuade her.

Carl thought about it seriously, suddenly reached out and pinched it the delicate and smooth face of the little Sophie girl, pulled a grimace out, and then asked.

"Does it hurt?"

Sophie's face was blank, she first nodded, then thought about it again, and shook her head: "It hurts, but it doesn't hurt too much!"

"That's right!"

Like a real teacher, Carl said step by step: "You see, you can feel the pain, you can also feel the joy, when you are held by your mother, you can feel peace of mind and warmth, and when you meet bad people, you can feel fear and panic, these feelings, these experiences are all yours, you are yourself, what else is there to ask?"

Sophie thought about it seriously and seemed to think that what Carl said made sense, but after a while, she still said with some confusion: "I'm not sure if I'm Sophie." ”

"I couldn't choose my birth, I couldn't choose what I looked like, I couldn't choose my gender, I couldn't even choose whether I wanted to be human. ”

"I love having beautiful blonde hair, like Myrtle, Dorothy, preferably with a little natural curl, but I only have flaxen hair, I can't curl it yet, and the foam glue and styling hairspray can't do anything for my hair!"

"I can't decide a lot of things, a lot of things are predetermined before I was born, I'm not sure, my feeling is also predetermined, just like when we talk to parrots, let them say 'hello' when they see people, say 'it's time to eat' and 'start dinner' when they eat, and say 'badass' and 'badass' when they scold people!"

Carl couldn't help but have a slight headache, it was the first time he had met this kind of little girl, and it was even more troublesome for a girl he once knew who studied philosophy. After thinking about it, he decided to enlighten this little girl from another angle.

"A lot of times, we can't decide what kind of identity we are, this is the position and identity given to us by this world and this society, but if you think about it from another angle, it is precisely these things that are determined by the world and society that determine what makes us different from others, you are Sophie, you are the daughter of Sir Grant, and you will be Lady Grant in the future, if you want to marry, it may be the wife of a knight or a knight, and if you have a child in the future, you will be the mother of a child, and it is this identity, like the anchor of a riveted ship, that locks our identity and distinguishes us from the rest of the world......”

Sophie looked up at Carl and listened attentively, thinking about Carl's words.

And this little girl, who likes to ask why, can't help but arouse Carl's curiosity, and he can't help but ask, "Why do you like to ask these strange questions?"

"That's what my mom asked me too, and she called me a curious girl, saying that I always had endless questions!"

Sophie said calmly, tilted her head and looked at Carl for a while before nodding again and saying, "I like you, you know a lot more than they do!"

"Haha!"

Carl couldn't help but laugh, he didn't expect that the first confession he received in this world was such a small little girl.

"Well, it's my pleasure!"

"I have a secret that I can tell you, but you also have to tell me a secret in exchange!"

Sophie wasn't treated as a child's annoyance, but looked at Carl with eyes as pure as crystal.

"Secret?"

Carl didn't take it to heart, just regarded it as a game between children, so he smiled, nodded and said: "Okay, then I'll talk about one first, the answers I just told you are all the knowledge I obtained from another world, and in order to obtain this knowledge, I have passed several promotion tests in that world." ”

Sophie didn't speak, but took a letter from the hidden pocket of the princess's dress and gently handed it to Carl.

"What is this? Is it a love letter from a boy to you?"

Carl jokingly took the envelope and opened it without paying much attention. It was an envelope wrapped in thick brown paper, heavy in the hand, but unexpectedly, there was only a thin piece of paper inside.

"Where did the world come from?"

"Where did we come from?"

On a thin sheet of white paper, two simple questions were written in the ancient Gulosta language.

“？”

Carl couldn't help but look at Sophie suspiciously, not understanding what this meant?

"You can see the words on it!"

Seeing Carl's puzzled expression, Sophie showed a happy look and said, "I just said that they can't see the above content, they must be too stupid to understand it." Mom and Dad still don't believe it, saying that I used a blank piece of paper to deceive people!"

"Where did the world come from, and where did we come from?"

Looking at the above question, Carl couldn't help but secretly shake his head, he felt that he had finally found the reason why Sophie had become a problem girl.

However, just as he was about to put down the letter, the original handwriting on the letter faded away, and a new content resurfaced.

"There is only one condition to be a good Grand Arcanist: curiosity......"

"Arcane?"

Carl couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart, and was immediately attracted to his gaze, and hurriedly continued to watch.

"Dear Sophie: The mysteries of this world are so vast that they can be richly rewarded in either direction. The oldest spellcasters, who derive their power from the bloodlines and sacrifices of dreams, have developed a strange wizarding sorcery. And the wise man who has no talent for wizards has found a path of mages that rely on spiritual meditation and constantly get closer to the roots of the world connection over the long years.

The path of the wizard culminates in the age of ancient mythology, and the path of the mage culminates in the age of the Magic Empire. Although with the disintegration of the ancient magic empire, magic once declined to the mainstream, relying on bloodline warlocks. But because of the rejection of the influence of the glorious Magic Empire, the magical civilization built in the ruins of magic has made new progress.

Arcane, abandoning the perceptual path of the classical magician's belief in the self, but using the path of empirical reason, to recognize the world, transform the world, and analyze all the mysteries of the world with an objective and true arcane attitude......"
