Chapter 648: "Props"
After listening to Isa's story.
Vega understands that the legend of the 'war species' to which Isa belongs is a war tool made for the gods, and each of them has a god magic sealed on their bodies that is used for war.
Divine Rank Magic, the full name of high-level Divine Rank Magic.
This type of magic is located above the stars and shrines, and is called the power of the gods.
In Isha's description, she had no memories of being created, or born, only remembering that she had been awakened from a crystal coffin by the Pope of Gunti City State more than a decade ago, and that she had been awakened with three other types of warfare.
From that day on, she began to reach out to the world.
She lost the possibility of becoming a professional and a magician due to the divine magic hidden in her body, which was so powerful that even the elements could not gather, but in her seventeen years of life, she slowly imitated humans and became more and more like a 'human'.
It's a pity that props are props after all.
She was imprisoned in the cathedral and was not allowed to leave there, knowing through the book Isha that she would be used as a tool in the war, because any superior magician could use her as a medium to unleash the divine magic in her body except herself.
But—
This spell can only be cast once.
In other words, she is a one-time war prop.
After the divine magic sealed on the body is released, it is unknown whether it will die directly or survive as an ordinary human.
But there is no doubt about it.
From the moment she woke up, her fate was sealed.
She is the war card of the Western Gangti City-State, once the war breaks out and the army of the Gangti City-State is unable to continue, she will be thrown to the battlefield and will die directly after being used, even if she does not die.
Annistola.
In the myths and legends of the city-state of Gunti, it is synonymous with calamity.
She is a war prop created by the gods, destined to bring happiness to mankind, and can only bring destruction, disaster, death, fear, and sorrow to the world......
The entire Holy See regarded the three of them as ominous.
But Isha was not willing to accept her fate.
Through the small window of the church, I have seen the warmth of family affection, the sincerity of friendship, and the romance of love in the human world...... How could she be willing to be just a prop.
Even if it's a fake.
Even if it's just an imitation.
She also wanted to be truly treated as a human being.
So she tried everything she could to escape from the city of Ganti, but it was only a matter of time before the city of Ganti, as the leader of the eleven countries in the West that opposed to the Freedom Alliance, was not even a professional.
This coincided with the expulsion of imperial civilians from the nations.
Taking advantage of the chaos, she fled to the East, and finally started a new life here in Vega.
Although she can't experience family and friendship, she is indeed treated as a human by everyone along the way.
It's great to be able to work like a human.
But no matter how similar she is, she is not human after all.
She didn't know how long she would live, if it was twenty years, or thirty years?
Maybe after today, she will never see the sunrise tomorrow.
Out of anxiety about the future, she just wants to enjoy every moment of her peaceful life like a human being.
If Vega and Sia were to be the Pope of the Gunti City State again, she would never admit it.
A future without a future, not the one she wants.
Even if it is a weapon of war, she has the right to choose its master.
So she confessed everything in front of Vega and chose to become Vega's weapon of war.
Even if it will be used tomorrow, this is the future she chooses, and she has no regrets about it.
If she could, she wanted to be able to experience family, friendship, and love before it was used, even if those emotions were just fakes used to deceive her, she would deceive herself into enjoying them.
Vega didn't suspect that Isha was lying to him.
Any words can be faked, but the golden rune behind Isha can never be faked.
Like the runes in a magic scroll, the power in Isha's body, just by looking at it, made Vega feel creepy, as if standing in front of him was a god who destroyed the world with a single gesture.
The gods are mighty.
At that moment, Vega realized what it means to be small.
Such weapons of war must be held in the hands, and even if they cannot be held in the hands, they must be destroyed.
Vega's eyes flashed with murder.
He really didn't expect that a small religious city-state in the West would actually hide three such hole cards.
If the star mage is regarded as a nuclear bomb, isn't it the button to destroy the world in this small country?
As long as these hole cards are used properly.
It is not alarmist to change the tide of war, but to change the world at worst.
It's like a sniper rifle, if you throw it to an ordinary person, you may only kill a few people, but if you throw it to a killer, he can use it to kill an important person, and even induce a world war.
Not to mention.
A sniper rifle is simply not enough to describe Isha.
It's perhaps more appropriate to describe Isha as a world-destroying nuclear bomb button.
The most troublesome thing is that this nuclear explosion button has two other ones besides Isha.
The murderous intent in Vega's eyes has become substantial.
He had already begun to plan how to destroy the other two wars in the city-state of Ganti, and at this moment Vega finally realized what a 'nuclear threat' was, a weapon of war that would only bring disaster and destruction, should not appear in this era at all.
It seemed to see the killing intent in Vega's eyes.
Isha shook her head at Vega and said, "Please don't have any unrealistic illusions, five years ago I also thought about killing myself to rebel against my fate, but unfortunately it was just useless, because we seem to have been deprived of the right to kill ourselves. ”
So to speak.
Isha picked up the dagger next to her and stabbed it in the chest.
Bang!
There was a crisp sound.
The dagger snapped off before it even touched her body.
This also makes Vega feel that things are getting more and more tricky, and at the same time, he understands that there are too many unknown things in this world, and he should always look at each person or force with the heart of an apprentice.
Maybe.
Behind the people or forces you underestimate are hidden forces that change the world.
Eventually, Vega understood how to make a choice.
Since you can't destroy the rest of the wars, you must hold Isha in your hands.
Although the enemy has two types of war, Vega thinks that as long as he finds a way to force them to use one of them, he will have the capital to compete.
The truly terrifying place of the ace is unknown.
Now that you know where the enemy's hole cards are, there are naturally more solutions to this problem than this.
"Second Lieutenant Isa, I take back my previous life. ”
Vega looked at Isha and said, "Please stay by my side for the rest of the day, and I need you to stay there for me." ”
"Not an inch......? Your Royal Highness, are you confessing?"
Isha seemed to regain her mood, and said with a pretended embarrassed expression that could be seen at a glance: "I'm very sorry, Your Royal Highness, you may be a good choice, but I don't have pedophilia." ”
"Again, I'm not a kid, I just look short!
"Why explain, don't you...... Were you really confessing just now?"
Isha couldn't hide her smile when she was completely relaxed: "I'm very sorry, I'm not interested in a married man." ”
