Chapter 7: Conversation with God

On the issue of the nature of the anomaly, the SCP Foundation uses scientific understanding to believe that reality is not evenly distributed in space, and that there is an anomalous density of reality around anomalous individuals, and proposes to use the "Hume Index" as a unit to measure the degree of reality; Lyle uses a magical understanding, believing that "reality benders" are magicians, "anomalous creatures" are magical creatures, and "anomalous artifacts" are alchemical items.

The best example of this divergence is SCP-2686 (Moon Magician), the moon-dwelling man who is a magician by all accounts. If the SCP Foundation recognizes the existence of magic and considers it a skill worth learning, he should not be registered as an anomaly.

Of course, the same thing can be analyzed from different angles, and there will be two completely different results, and it is impossible to simply and crudely evaluate who is right and who is wrong, and the Kant calculator and Scranton Reality Anchor developed by the SCP Foundation can prove the value of scientific understanding to a certain extent.

It's just that in the process of Lyle's conversation with God, the two sides use a magical understanding of 100% purity-

"What an interesting child, there are many people who are born with the ability to use specific magic, and there are many people who remember the memories of their past lives to obtain systematic magical powers, but you are the only one who can remember all the magical knowledge but forget the life experience of the previous life." God was relieved to confirm that Lyle had a complete magical system, and he was not worried that Lyle was too strong, but only that he would fail to cast spells or be mentally immature.

"Forgetting is both poison and medicine, and if you cling to a burden that you shouldn't leave behind, it will only affect your future life." Lyle is ostensibly expressing his attitude, but in fact he explains why.

God who understood this nodded with satisfaction, a soul who can have a relieved attitude towards life experience can not be much worse, but it is a pity that it was discovered too late, and life has gone a short way: "So, the Starks are also a 'burden that should not be left behind'?" ”

"If they show up at this time, I will still admit that they are parents." Lyle is willing to believe that the Starks have always requested a meeting, but they have all been rejected by the Foundation, "It's just that we haven't seen each other for more than five years, and it's also a lie to talk about how much we miss each other, considering the Foundation's style, it's better to live a good life separately, and I don't plan to go out to find them on my own initiative." ”

This is a form of protection for the Starks, and with the SCP Foundation's moral floor, if it is confirmed that the Starks and Lyle are still in a bond, they will definitely see it as some kind of weapon that can be used.

God was surprised, "Huh? Sounds like you're happy with your life today? ”

"I wasn't happy with my life before, but now ......" Lyle drew a circle with his index finger, and the imaginary space changed from a luxurious castle to a sunny beach, with the only constant being a table full of good food, "as long as I am allowed to use magic, my life will be at least 60 points." ”

After tasting the food on the table, the god who knew Lyle's level of 'creating the world' couldn't help but wonder: "What about the remaining 40 points?" ”

"Of those 20 points are for projects that are worth exploring, and this is a treasure trove for me, and 80 points are achieved." In the past five years, Lyle has stolen enough research results, and it is time to get hands-on with the containment objects for research, "The last 20 points are maids...... It's a little bit of a hassle. ”

"Maid?" God blinked, and suddenly realized, "You want a subordinate?" I can bring you SCP-662 (the butler bell), which can be used to summon a butler who will do his best to meet his master's unrestricted requirements. ”

God was only actively contained by the SCP Foundation, which does not mean that he is on the side of the SCP Foundation, stealing containment materials from other places and giving them to the pleasing Lyle without a trace of hesitation.

Lyle's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Is there a bell to summon the maid?" ”

"Uh...... Not found yet. "The core of SCP-662's technique is in the butler, not the bell.

Lyle was disappointed, but still said, "I'm very interested in summoning spells, and I'll ask the old man to take a trip." ”

It is not much more difficult for God to get a shelter with a known location than it is to go to the Golden Arches and get a hamburger: "Little friend, you seem to be very attached to the maid? ”

"The maid is so cute, I like the maid the most!" Lyle said with his head held high.

God narrowed his eyes in pleasure, apparently guessing that this affection came from a past life, and that Lyle was not a dashing person who had completely cut off his past.

"By the way, in order to hide my tracks, I only dared to check the information of this facility, and I couldn't access the containment materials of other facilities online." Rao is Lyle's hacking skills are excellent, and the foundation's network security management is not weak, and the risk of accessing information on the Internet is too high, "Old man, can you recommend a few containment objects suitable for me to act as a maid, and the appearance should be normal." ”

The SCP Foundation certainly wouldn't mind sending a few beautiful female agents to serve as Lyle's maids, and there was no better surveillance post than that, but alaly, Lyle's self-awareness of the 'containment' had risen.

God didn't hesitate: "I'll ask the Foundation to transfer them all one by one later, and you will take care of them a little more then." ”

Lyle wants a maid, and God has mercy on some of the containments, and the two hit it off.

"Transferred?" Lyle was surprised by this reply, "It's the O5 Council that has the power to make decisions, and I remember the Foundation in soul spells...... Ahem, there are specialized countermeasures in the field of memetic infections, will it go so well? ”

God smiled slightly, and said, "Aren't the Foundation's reinforced concrete and thickened alloy doors also claimed to be able to resist the destruction of containment?" When will SCP-096 (the shy man) be stopped? ”

The only reason SCP-096 appears to be contained is that the people who have seen its face have been killed (excluding those it can't), and it is in a tame state.

Lyle shrugged his shoulders, due to limited access to information, he only knew a little about the true strength of the SCP Foundation, and he had the opportunity to fight with the Mobile Task Force, but he also gave up halfway because of Dr. Clive's successful negotiations: "Then, in return, if the old man has anything inconvenient to come forward in the future, I will help you run an errand~"

What God can't solve, Lyle probably can't solve, and that's the only thing he can help with.

"You kid...... Shouldn't it be considered an unconditional help from the elders out of good intentions? God smiled wryly.

Lyle shook his head and smiled: "I really can't, because I've just done a few things that aren't cute at all~ What elder would like a child like me?" ”

A few days later, the O5 Council instructed the transport of SCP-662 (Butler Bell), SCP-187 (Future Vision), SCP-191 (Mechanical Girl), SCP-706 (Perfect Porcelain Figure), and SCP-054 (Water Elf) to a New York containment facility.

(Note: SCP-166 (Succubus Girl) and SCP-239 (Witch Girl) were not discovered and contained by the Foundation at this time.) οΌ‰
