Chapter 148: Face to face
Even if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Asuna had already understoodβ
The so-called godkiller is a humanoid natural disaster that can shatter everything on earth, and an absolute authority that destroys the whole world without anyone's consent.
There is a sentence in Nietzsche's "The Other Side of Good and Evil":
If you fight with a dragon for too long, you will become a dragon; Stare into the abyss for too long, and the abyss will stare back.
When a valiant knight has the ability to slay an evil dragon, then even if he does not have black scale armor and sharp claws on his body, his danger level is actually no different from or even more dangerous in the eyes of others.
In the same way, God Killers can even kill gods, so how different is their ability and authority compared to gods?
Who thinks that they are really still human beings, and that they can be constrained by nonsense such as human feelings, worldly ideas, and moral laws?
If it had been before, Asuna would have been suspicious of this kind of thing, but now that more than a month has passed, she has fully accepted this worldview in the process of learning mysterious knowledge.
Therefore, in front of this desolate beast, small as a mortal, powerless as an ant, as long as you really understand what you see, how can you be indifferent?
Otherwise, the girl wouldn't have been so afraid of the cold just now, and she had a sense of desperate fate.
Slowly, things didn't take a sharp turn, and the topic didn't come back to herself, so Asuna's mood calmed down little by little, and she finally returned to normal-
At least on the surface, it is already quiet, and people can't see any clues.
Anyway, no matter how bad it is, it won't be worse than just now, since this demon king is helping himself to hide it, then I don't think it doesn't matter what he is going to do, he won't worry about those things with himself.
Judging from the vaccinations that my father had given him, this situation often means that he is not in danger...... However, my father was still thoughtful, and even expected this situation.
However, if the other party is interested in how he entered the world, how should he answer?
She didn't know how she was here in a daze, and if the other party asked, she would really be completely confused...... If you can't answer, will you be regarded as a joke by the other party?
What is this? What does the book say...... Guilty of deception?
Not to mention that Asuna seems to be calm here, but in fact she is still thinking about it in a panic, thinking about how to deal with it next, and the conversation between the two over there is basically coming to an end-
"That's it, by the way, you also told Liliana about it, I won't repeat it...... I'll give you specific practices for those miracles later. β
"I see, but why give it later?" Erica was a little puzzled, it sounds like a ready-made power template, is it so difficult to prepare the teaching materials in advance?
"Because it's too troublesome to write a story, although as long as I exist in this world, the rules of the first fire are equivalent to being extended, and miracles can also be used, but ......"
Mo Chen said lazily, lying on the table by the way, yawning-
"Anyway, there's no deadline, and no one is urging me to update, so I'll write it when you get the basics right."
"What...... First fire? Rules? β
The blonde girl's face was even more confused, she couldn't understand many of the terms, but she inexplicably thought of the word "pigeon" through the other party's answer.
Just looking at some of the vague meanings, it can't really be as those guys guessed, this person is really not the existence of this world, but a monster flying from another world, right?
Well, it doesn't seem to have any effect, both horizontal and vertical are monsters beyond the realm of people, whether it is from this world or another world, it has no effect at all...... She just loves monsters!
Just thinking about it, the girl immediately abandoned those useless thoughts and continued to unswervingly strengthen her goal.
"That's it, I'm not in a very good state lately, you can hibernate when I want to, and in less than a month, it's no problem if the winter passes......"
Mo Chen maintained the posture that was most widely circulated among the student group, raised his hand and waved, not saying that he had finally adapted to the pain of the first fire now.
"It's you, go ahead and deal with this first...... It's not that I don't remind you that Liliana just left, and you don't want to finish this matter faster than her? β
The blonde girl's eyes lit up suddenly, and then she stood up decisively, ready to rush back to seize the opportunity.
She just said to the girl with chestnut long straight hair and asked the other party to look at the "paper". Then he acted resolutely, said to leave, and ran away without giving people a chance to react.
Asuna was left alone in a daze-
She finally managed to regain her calm mood and collapsed in an instant, looking at the direction where the blonde girl left, she found that she was suddenly the only one left, and her face turned pale in an instant.
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
Wait, wait, isn't this situation even worse? Although she was already mentally prepared, at this moment, she still felt that she couldn't bear this terrifying pressure at all!
"Hmm...... My king, I, I ...... I also had to leave beforehand, sorry. It was completely subconscious, and the girl turned her head and said in a slightly trembling voice.
- Either way, she has to escape from this terrible hell first!
Mo Chen glanced at her with slanted eyes, then let out an expressionless sigh, nodded and didn't say anything.
The girl's heart was relieved, and she was surprised and felt as if she had been pardoned, so she quickly got up and bowed with one hand stiffly as Erica had just done, and then turned around to leave quickly.
Saved!
She thought so, but her whole body was still tense, for fear of being stopped or something else happening in the middle of the way......
It was just two steps and three steps, and she didn't feel any eyes on her, nor did she say anything to stop her from leaving.
However, she slowly stopped.
Is it really a good idea to just walk away? If I miss this opportunity, I can't say that I will still be so scared in the future......
I don't know what to think, the girl's body trembled slightly, but she still gritted her teeth and turned around, and then walked back step by step with an expression as if she had been on the execution ground.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
"I knew there was a problem......
At the entrance of the stairs of the library a few floors below, Erica, who was listening carefully to the voices above, muttered quietly.
However, she didn't really stay to eavesdrop on anything, but took a deep breath, turned around and continued down the stairs. She was just full of thoughts, feeling a little worried, thinking that that guy was really troublesome.
If that guy only likes the dead, then it's still a fate that everyone will accept sooner or later!
For magicians, death is not the end, and the dead are just another form of existence.
Necromancers are a taboo, but it's only because they've gone too far, and if they simply turn themselves or some other willing person into an undead, who has time to care about their own?
It's not just the necromancy faction, those life schools that transform their own bloodlines, those werewolves who used to bite people everywhere, and the bloodsuckers who raged for a while, all got the same treatment-
If it's a step-by-step development, even if you become a monster, as long as you don't come out to scare others, then no one will have time to pay attention to you.
After all, everyone is very busy, everyone has their own pursuits, and everyone has their own things to do!
The relics of the ancient gods involve the sacred relics of mythology, the every move of the godslayer, and the clues of the gods who do not follow...... I don't know how many worries there are all day long, and I can't be busy at all, so what does it matter if others are messing up on their own turf in this situation?
But some guys not only want to change their own life forms, but they also forcibly want to force others to change their life forms and promote their own paths...... That's really a taboo, and those guys who are "persecuted" often make such a stupid move.
- and then it raged for a while, and then it was attacked by a crowd, and finally it was crippled or even completely destroyed.
But in the end, if it is still their own choice, then no one will say anything, many magicians have no way to break through, their life span has come to an end, and they can't find those normal ways to continue their lives, so they choose to turn themselves into undead.
This is also a common thing, and even many magic associations have more or less the same old monsters, and no one will come to the door to kill demons, so nosy messengers of justice are afraid that they will be killed on the spot.
If Erica had chosen to do the same, it would have been true that no one would insist on stopping her...... Of course, only at the end of one's path, not now.
Therefore, she felt that even if the other party liked the deceased, she still had a chance.
Although this idea may seem too incomprehensible to ordinary people, the boundary between the mortal and the extraordinary is also a problem of "concept" in addition to "ability".
But now...... If that guy only likes Orientals, what can Erica do? She felt a sense of urgency from the bottom of her heart, and felt that her course of action could not be changed.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
There was a strange silence, and the girl with long straight chestnut hair sat back in her place, not knowing what to say when she opened her mouth several times.
As time went by, she became more and more nervous, and therefore she didn't know what to say, she only hated that her brain was mush, and she couldn't even speak at this time.
And Mo Chen didn't know when, he spread out a roster and was writing and painting on it, and he raised his head after a while:
"Well, if there is no problem, sign a contract to become magic...... Ahem, just press a handprint. β
"Huh?" Asuna was slightly stunned, looked down, and found that the blank page on the roster depicted a lifelike portrait of herself, and her name was written in the column next to it.
It's not "Asuna", it's "Asuna Yuuki".
A flash of shock flashed in her beautiful eyes, although she had long known that the person in front of her was wearing human skin, but the essence was an incomprehensible superior, but this situation was still incomprehensible.
"Don't be so surprised, I know you...... But it looks like you've probably forgotten that memory, and that's fine. β
Mo Chen said casually, and pushed a clay box over by the way.
It seems that the girl has forgotten that the previous time was not romantic, and it can even be said to be a terrifying "encounter". But this is also normal, at that time he was not only a manifest figure, but also existed in the form of data.
Or through the operation of the machine, the information is transformed into the visual and auditory sensations of the player's body in reality...... Such a heavy weakening also makes the behavior of "looking directly" acceptable.
At least no one will be permanently insane, and no matter how shocking the mental impact is, it will soon be forgotten under the effect of the subconscious protection mechanism.
What is that memory? You don't know this person at all, do you? The girl was ignorant and confused, but the tense heartstrings were relaxed.
