Apparently the commission was certainly not the assassination of the viscount, so what exactly were they going to do?

Thinking to no avail, Jude suddenly realized that he had wandered back to the door of the Black Vitex Rose. The cold winter nights were long and dark, and only the bright lights of the tavern warmed it.

In any case, it is better to have a good rest first, no matter what happens until dawn. Thinking so, the young man pushed the door and walked into the hall, and a familiar smiling face immediately came into view:

"Welcome back, guest. The tavernkeeper stood behind the counter and beckoned to him with a smile on his face, "Welcome back to Black Vitex Rose, we welcome you like the wind on the plains." ”

"Uh, Reda?" Jude looked at the tavernkeeper, surprised, he hadn't expected him to rest so late.

"As you can see, Jude, it's late at night. Reda spread her hands, looking a little helpless, "But anyway, you are also an apprentice of Standticom, I have to care about your situation a little, right, otherwise I won't be able to explain to him." ”

The tavernkeeper paused for a moment, then continued, "If I'm not mistaken, did you go to the Red Turban Brotherhood's hideout?"

"Yes, I did go to the Red Turban Brotherhood. The boy walked over to the stool in front of the counter and sat down, secretly feeling that the other party's guess was accurate, "Do you know who I met there? I met Roy!"

"Hmm, did you meet Roy in the Red Turban Brotherhood's hideout?" the news seemed to surprise Reda as well, and he put away his smile and looked thoughtful.

"Yes, Smokad is actually Roy's pseudonym, and he and his mercenaries are hiding in the mountains disguised as a gang of bandits. Roy has a special commission in Ochedant that must be completed, the invasion during the day is a feint, and they intend to act tomorrow at sunset......"

Jude truthfully relayed the details to the friend of Mr. Stanxiu, hoping that the other party would analyze it for him.

However, after hearing this, Ruida's face was rarely complicated: "Did he tell you the specific content of the commission?"

"Nope. Roy says he's made a deal with Death, and I'm curious to see who he means by Death?"

"That's true. The tavernkeeper suddenly began to sigh, "Why is trouble always uninvited?" ”

As if sorting out his words, he spoke slowly: "I mentioned earlier that there is a faint misty aura on you. Jude, maybe you haven't figured it out, but this breath comes from that girl...... Is it called Merry?"

"You mean Mehia?" it turned out not to be from Itinav, Jude thought back to the girl who took care of him when he was sick, "Roy brought Mehya back from the dead with the help of the Grim Reaper he said, so Mehya will have a spirit breath in her, is that what happened?"

"There's a serious logical problem with what you're saying," Ruida corrected, shaking her head, "not resurrection from the dead, but reincarnation." Jude, the life you see is not the beginning, and the death you understand is not the end. Life is far longer than life to death, and it is more complicated to explain, do you want to hear it?"

"Reincarnation?" the boy was a little unfamiliar with the term, "which means that the soul enters a new body after death, is that true?"

"It's not that simple. The tavernkeeper shook his head again, "All existence is made up of two parts: Form and Essence, form is form, and soul is essence. For life, form refers to the body and soul is the soul. The death you see is the death of the body. ”

"The death of the form does not usually lead to the death of the soul. After death, the soul enters The Nether, also known as The Mists. There's a bunch of ...... there. Man, who is responsible for extraditing the souls of the dead, erasing their memories and arranging new bodies for them. These people are the stewards of the spirit realm, what Roy calls the 'Grim Reaper'. ”

It turns out that there really is a cycle of life and death in the world, Jude stared at the increasingly mysterious mage in front of him: "The administrator of the spirit realm, isn't the soul of the dead managed by Mögus, and what kind of deal does Roy make with these people?"

"Leaving aside the matter of the gods, you just need to know that the rulers of this world are not the gods, but other beings. "These spirit administrators have supernatural powers that can guide the souls of the dead back to their original forms. As a result, it is reincarnation in this life, a new life. ”

Reincarnation, starting anew. I see, no wonder Mejia calls Roy "uncle" and talks about taking care of her as a child and so on. Unexpectedly, there was such a miracle in the world that surpassed common sense, and the young man suddenly became a little excited: "These managers have such incredible powers, can I ask them to let Leia be reincarnated and reborn?"

"I don't know who Leia is, but they don't usually allow this to happen, and the managers have a code. The tavernkeeper began to sigh again, "It's extremely rare to make a deal with them like Roy, and it's basically the same situation. ”

Bringing the dead back to life is really not something that can be easily done, Jude changed his mind and was relieved, and continued to ask, "What kind of special circumstances?"

Hearing the boy's question, Reda was silent for a long time, and finally seemed to have made up her mind: "Since you are Stanticom's apprentice, then you have the right to know the truth." Jude, have you ever heard the saying, 'Everything that begins in the depths of nothingness will end in darkness.'" （It begins with deep void. It ends in utter darkness.）’”

"What is this...... The doctrine of the cult?" Jude vaguely remembers that Nosa had mentioned this "behemoth darkness" when he was in the Northlands, and it seemed that this was where the necromancer's power came from.

This is not a cult doctrine, but a truth that reveals the essential laws of the world. The tavernkeeper looked uncharacteristically serious, "Everything came into being from nothing, and then came into nothing. Just as the spilled water cannot be retracted, all orderly and valuable existence will eventually tend to be chaotic. Void Entropy is the will of the void, and one day everything will be annihilated, all existence will be forgotten, and the world will be empty...... But until then, we can try to slow down the process as much as we can. ”

"It can be hard for you to understand. Reda looked at the confused teenager and sighed again, "In terms of conclusion, the innate mission of those managers is to fight against Void Entropy. Entropius are the embodiment of Void Entropy, they are made up of chaotic entropy energy, which can cause great damage to the orderly world, and those who are in charge are obliged to destroy all the entropy demons in the present world. ”

A flood of unfamiliar information poured into Jude, but he teased out the most crucial part from it: "So, as the price of the deal, the administrator of the spirit realm asked Roy to destroy the entropy demon for them?"
