Where the hand can reach, it is only something around the body, and it is impossible to stretch it out to reach farther, farther and farther.

So, just like your own arm, so do your dreams and aspirations, and even if you have great ambitions, in some cases, you just stay where you are.

For the above two situations, Natsume, as an ordinary person, has a deep understanding.

He is not a great general who can save the country, let alone a great hero who can destroy the enemies of the world, but just a lying human with various desires.

Everyone needs lies, and Natsume is no exception, always using lies to deceive herself, admonish herself, and even encourage herself.

What is the value of lies? If I could estimate it, I would be very valuable.

Faced with these things, in the face of the situation at this moment, Natsume is looking for a real lie that can help him.

Natsume considers herself a liar, and like the villains in the TV series who use language to play with others, she relies on unrealistic lies to construct the so-called truth.

Therefore, if you want to solve the current situation, it may be best to end it with a lie.

But can you deceive the person in front of you? Regardless of whether you can be deceived or not, you must carefully consider what type of lies you use to deceive.

Standing in place, the sunlight in the forest seemed to have broken through the guard, and the light spots falling on the ground formed various patterns.

Between the trees, under the golden sun, in the sound of cicadas, and above the fragrant green grass, the girl stood.

Wrong. Wrong. She wasn't standing. Rather, it's like floating, as if the body is a few centimeters away from the ground, floating there in defiance of the laws of physics.

Perhaps to prove that she was floating, the girl slowly floated into the air and sat on the trunk of a tree as she had done last time.

Swinging her feet, she wore a long red gothic-style dress with white ribbons and bows as decorations on the skirt and waist.

Wearing crystalline leather shoes, black suspenders stretched into her skirt before disappearing from view.

Even though it's summer at the moment. But the other party didn't feel hot at all, but looked refreshed, shaking his head and humming a song.

The long ponytail was blown up by the wind, probably because the hairpin was not fixed, and the originally tied hair was directly spread out, dancing in the air, and the three thousand soft silks reflected the sun.

As if the waves were ringing in my ears, the wind whistled in the distance, taking away the heat and a hint of dullness.

Raise your head and stare at the girl. Staring at your own 'BUG', your own 'golden finger'. At the same time, she is a girl who is her own 'enemy'.

Is there any point in appearing on my side again at this time?

With such doubts, Natsume spoke, no, it was an inquiry.

"What did you come here for? Was war declared? Want to have a fight? ”

"Oops, oops, oops, Natsume-sensei also knows that people are not very good at fighting, and that kind of violent action makes people very dissatisfied. After all, why do human beings always take whoever fights better is the real winner? ”

"Isn't it a theme in many novels?"

"Of course, any otherworldly continent, any Western magic, is mainly operated and developed by the 'strong', and if you defeat the enemy by force, you are the strong, and this kind of violent judgment is applicable to any world."

But.

Lu immediately changed her opinion, the reason why she came here, the purpose of coming here, has not yet been explained.

"However, relying on force to determine the rules of strength and weakness can only be said to be barbaric, uneducated, boring, meaningless, and funny, but very annoying."

A few punches to defeat the enemy is the winner? Is the higher level the winner? If you succeed in cultivating immortals, you are the winner?

Wrong, these are all things that don't interest me at all, so I think it's too stupid from beginning to end.

After all, that process, things, and judgments are like playing a bloody RPG role-playing game, fighting monsters and leveling up, and finally single-handedly fighting the boss.

What's the point of being the strongest? A turning point in your life? Improved emotional intelligence? Learned to run? Can you change the world? Can you save others?

However, no matter which one it is, the 'strongest' of force cannot do it.

Even if it does, it is a kind of incidental, a temporary thing.

"Therefore, the human beings who have been developing are nothing more than primitive creatures in the end, just like the barbarians in the movies, although they can fight, they are no different from the walking dead."

The reason why people are human is not because of how much wisdom they have, let alone how strong they are, but how much they have changed.

"Natsume-sensei, how is this world for you? What do you think of this world with elves and girls from another world? ”

"Like the rest of the world, it's a link in the journey, isn't it? Of course I will do what the Apocalypse Frame wants me to do, after all, no matter who is enlightened, no matter how good it is, everyone will be afraid. ”

Aren't people who commit suicide afraid of death? Wrong, it should be the people who want to commit suicide who are the most afraid of death.

Leaning against the trunk of the tree behind him, Natsume continued his words.

"That's why I'm confused. Lu, you said before that the frame of the Apocalypse is for me to try to break through this box, and at the same time, it is afraid that I will break through this box, so what is the real purpose? ”

"Natsume-sensei's problem?"

"If you want to help me, why do you want to interfere with me, that's what it means."

"Didn't you say that before? Lord Apocalypse is afraid that Natsume-sensei will get the power of a higher being than it, so he will find a way to interfere with you, but if you can't break through this box, the purpose of the Apocalypse Shelf will be nullified. ”

"Is it really a contradictory statement, from beginning to end, that so-called Apocalyptic Frame is using the maintenance of 'order and balance' as an excuse to break through this world and reach what he thinks of as the 'outside world'?"

Exactly.

Leo sat on the trunk of the tree and tilted her head, and she let out a giggling laugh as the corners of her mouth were raised.

"Just like the things people talked about before, novelists are the 'gods' who create the 'world' and the 'people' who create the 'boxes', and their characters may exist in a certain world in a certain dimension."

"Pluralism?"

"YES, IF THE POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS, WHY NOT TAKE A GAMBLE? Novelists are a strange profession. ”

"That's true."

"Mr. Natsume also knows very well, after all, when novelists write, they are talking to themselves, and it feels terrifying to think about it."

The topic seems to be a bit off the rails.

Record corrects the topic back, but after all, Natsume doesn't know what he is talking about.

"Okay, Natsume-sensei, people just came to tell Natsume-sensei a message, you, there's still a week, if you fail......"

Recording pointed to the cracked space behind him.

"People will make the best tombstone for Natsume-sensei!" (To be continued......)
