Chapter 16: The Weakness of Human Nature
At this time, on the other side of Castlevania, the man with a prosthetic leg was talking to Nameless. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I haven't seen you for a long time, I didn't expect to see you here." The man said with some emotion.
"I didn't expect that either. Enoku, what are you doing here? Nameless asked.
Enohisa stroked his prosthetic leg and said meaningfully: "Even if I can't go to the front line, I will guard the young master from afar." ”
Nameless tilted his head: "Is there anything to find me?" ”
"Twenty days ago, the people of the shogunate bought a large number of weapons." Enohisa said slowly, "It's not against Kabane, it's a weapon used against people." Please tell the young master that those people are doing the work of the invisible. At the critical moment, Ekihisa will definitely go to help. ”
"Even if you do this, I'm afraid you won't be able to return to my brother." Nameless said lightly, "Goodbye." ”
She turned and walked towards the front of the car. At this moment, Enoku suddenly pulled out the katana in his hand and slashed at Nameless's neck!
But Nameless seemed to have expected it, and without waiting for the sword to strike, he used his feet to exert his strength, and took off into the air, and a backflip leaped over Enoku's head, dodging the katana while pulling out a short spear in his right hand, pointing it at Enoku's head.
"What are you going to do?" Nameless fell behind Enokusa and asked coldly. During the entire fall, she didn't let the muzzle of the gun leave Enokusu's head.
"It's still a good skill...... Enohisa put down his katana and said a little lonely, "It seems that your vigilance and strength have not regressed, so I'll be relieved." You are the young master's minions, and only by tearing Kabane with your minions is valuable, as long as you are a little sluggish, you will also be abandoned by the young master. Keep that in mind. ”
"I don't need you to say it, I know it." Nameless put away the short gun and said indifferently.
Lin Yuedong squatted on the roof of the carriage, silently watching this scene, and did not plan to interfere now.
There is this plot in the original work.,Enoku was originally a subordinate of Amaria Tentori.,After breaking his leg, he was abandoned by Tentori Mima as worthless.。 After meeting Nameless at the Yachidai Station, he also slashed her, but in the plot, Nameless just pulled out Kunai to block the knife, and as a result, he was pointed at a gun by Enohisa, and he didn't create a situation of counter-killing like now.
The reason for this is that in the process of getting along with many civilians in the Iron City, Nameless in the plot gradually smoothed out the vigilance and aggression he had cultivated in his combat career, resulting in not choosing to counterattack at the first time when encountering the enemy, but only choosing to block.
And this time, she arrived here in the Castlevania City, where the strong hand is like a forest, under the influence of Lin Yuedong, not only has the vigilance and aggression not decreased, but it has also been a point higher.
It's just that Enokusa's words are still said as in the original. The nameless reaction also proves that she, who has not experienced the life of the Iron City, is still the loyal minions of the heavenly bird Mima.
This is not a good thing for Lin Yuedong. Nameless can't "empathize and don't fall in love" to Ikoma, how can the plot of the original work be guaranteed?
And as far as Lin Yuedong's own plan is concerned, he can't sit back and watch this happen.
Now is a good opportunity to cut in, so let's solve this hidden problem!
After Nameless turned the front of the car and got out of Enoku's sight, Lin Yuedong jumped down from the carriage, hurried two steps, and walked to Nameless's side: "I saw what happened just now." ”
Nameless said calmly, "I know. You're on top of the carriage. ”
"You saw it when you jumped." Lin Yuedong said, "What do you think of Enokushi's words? ”
"He's right." Nameless replied simply.
"To himself, it may be true, but not necessarily to you." Lin Yuedong denied, "Do you know? His thoughts, I call it 'the consciousness of the chess piece'. Take the initiative to become someone else's pawn, let others call you around, without your own will, and only rely on your own value to maintain your position as a standard-bearer and your own survival. ”
"That's not right." Nameless retorted, "The strong live, the weak die, it's the same everywhere." As long as you are strong enough, you will not be eliminated, and it has nothing to do with chess pieces or anything. ”
Lin Yuedong said: "No, it matters. It is indeed a natural law to forget the strong and the weak, but the strength here is judged by nature. Enokusa gave his judgment on whether he was strong or weak to another person, and Tentori Mima thought he was strong when he was strong, and he was weak when he thought he was weak. This is the subjective judgment of others, not the objective laws of nature. So, this is the 'enlightenment of the chess piece'. ”
Nameless asked rhetorically, "So what?" ”
Lin Yuedong lowered his voice slightly: "That is a good realization for him." Honestly acting as a chess piece, but also honing oneself to become a useful chess piece, for chess players such as Tentori Mima, such a chess piece is very popular. However, you are not the same. Are you really just a pawn for Mima Tentori? ”
"I ......" nameless hesitated.
"He saved you, he gave you a name, he made you a Kabaneri, he made you call him 'brother', he put so much effort into you, just for a good pawn?" Lin Yuedong chuckled, "Then as a chess player, he is too unqualified." A chess piece is not worth investing so much energy. ”
Nameless's eyes widened: "That, what do you mean ......"
As soon as she was reminded by Lin Yuedong's words, she faintly thought of a possibility, which made her very excited, and she didn't even think of the question of "how did Lin Yuedong know that it was the heavenly bird beautiful horse who gave himself the name Nameless".
"For Mima Tentori, you're definitely not just a pawn, or a minion as Enoku calls it." Lin Yuedong said in a very determined tone, "You are special to him, a relative who is really like a sister!" ”
When Nameless was very young, Tentori Mima saved her life and turned her into Kabaneri, and has been instilling her own thoughts in Nameless in a brainwashing way. So Nameless's feelings for Mima Tentori are so deep that they are loyal to the point of blindness, which is reflected in the original work.
When the Celestial Bird Mima and the Iron City clashed, she obeyed the Celestial Bird and snatched the key to the calamus;
When there was a conflict between Tentori and Uwenyi, she obeyed Tentori Misa, put down the suspension bridge and entered Kecheng;
Even after the last Tentori Mima completely exposed his villain and was ready to use Nameless's life to open the way for his ambitions, Nameless still chose to obey Tentori Misa and obediently offered his life for Tentori Misa;
Her feelings for Amina Tentori are naturally not like Enokihisa, just the loyalty of subordinates to their bosses, or the loyalty of chess pieces to chess players, but more than this, close to family affection.
And of course, in the deepest part of her heart, she will expect that Mima Ama will also treat her not only as a pawn, but as a relative!
Now Lin Yuedong told her that her little expectation had come true, which made Nameless Deng excited: "What you said is true? ”
Lin Yuedong was kind and seductive: "Of course." Come to think of it, he has done so much for you, how can he just treat the pawns? ”
Nameless really thought about it, and then the more she thought about it, the more she felt that Lin Yuedong was right. Her voice trembled a little and said, "Yes, I ...... It's not just chess pieces. ”
Lin Yuedong smiled and said, "So you see, since Tianniao and beautiful horses don't treat you as a chess piece, why do you think of yourself as a chess piece?" Let the chess pieces hold the consciousness of the chess pieces, what you should have now is the consciousness of not being a chess piece. You're not a pawn in the hands of Mima Tentori, you're the one who plays chess with him next to him, aren't you? ”
Nameless nodded slowly: "You're right...... I really shouldn't have listened to Enoku. He's a pawn, but I'm not. ”
Lin Yuedong concluded: "So, although you should still be stronger, it should be based on a completely different purpose. You are not trying to sharpen yourself into sharper minions or better pawns, but to be able to better support the cause of Mima Tentori. That's the advice you should remember. Don't care about the distant barking of the defeated dog. ”
"I see." Nameless stopped and bowed deeply to Lin Yuedong, "Thank you for enlightening me!" I will try harder! ”
Lin Yuedong said: "Well, it's good to understand. Let's see how Ikoma is doing, and if he finds the carriage, let him come back quickly, we still have something to do. ”
"Yes!"
Nameless was in a good mood and jumped away.
Looking at the nameless figure, Blue Knife asked a little curiously, "What did you tell her, she was so happy?" ”
Lin Yuedong sighed slightly: "I created an illusory hope for her, and then waited for her to fall into the abyss because of this." ”
As mentioned earlier, Nameless has a deep affection for Mima Tentori, if it weren't for the constant influence of Ikoma and the people of Kotetsu Castle to make her transform from a fighting machine back to a girl, maybe until the end, she wouldn't wake up suddenly, but follow Mima Tentori to hell.
But now Jia Tiecheng doesn't know where to go, and it is Lin Yuedong who affects the nameless. With Lin Yuedong's style of acting, it would be really fantastical to want Nameless to have a change from the original.
So in order to keep the plot in place, Lin Yuedong can only choose to use this not-so-bright means.
In fact, what feelings does Mima have for Nameless? For Mima Tentori, Nameless is just the most important chess piece in his hand, and all the attention is just the chess player's attention to his own chess piece that can check the opponent's death.
But Lin Yuedong deceived Nameless, aroused the deepest desire in her heart, and then explained this importance as the importance of relatives.
And what about the nameless? In order to solve the cognitive dissonance between "I hope that Mima Amina will treat her as a relative" and "Mima Ama thinks she is a pawn", the original cognitive system will be readjusted and eliminated by collecting "new cognitive factors" - Hayashi Yuedong's words.
To put it simply, it is inclined to believe what Lin Yuedong said, "Tianniao Mima treats her as a relative", and will not question it. The tendency to orient the cognitive system in one's favor is one of the most classic weaknesses of human nature, and it is thanks to the fact that the most stupid-looking scams have been successfully carried out, and now Nameless is also deeply involved in it.
But the fraud will eventually be exposed one day, and Tentori Mima is destined to use Nameless as a pawn without hesitation. When that day comes, the nameless hope will turn into the deepest despair at the moment of recognizing the facts, and then under the impetus of this despair, she will betray Mima Tentori!
At that time, the plot will naturally be reinstated.
"Doesn't sound like you're doing anything good." Blue Knife said suspiciously.
"I didn't really do anything good, even for a good purpose." Lin Yuedong waved his hand, "Don't talk about this, let's go study the battle plan." Black smoke isn't that easy to deal with. ”
