Chapter 36: The Feast of Samin
"Your name is William, right, I'll take back this gold coin in your hand, you won't need it anyway."
Liam wiped the lucky gold coin on his chest, then sat back in his place, picked up his glass and drank the wine, compared to William, who was in a somewhat complicated mood, Liam behaved heartlessly.
I'm an elf and not a human, and William has nothing to do with me, so why should I offend the dragon for the injustice he has encountered.
Liam is not the Virgin Mary, so naturally he doesn't care about William's mood, although he is full of interest in the gold coin of destiny above his head.
"Isn't the power of the Gold of Destiny able to fight against the dragon?" William frowned and asked, obviously the power of the fate gold coin has been inclined to him, but why was the evil dragon able to launch an attack on himself in advance before he evolved, at that time, he had the support of the king and the abbot, and the blessing of the Lyne Knight Holy Seal, he already had the courage to fight the evil dragon, and he could use the power of the holy sword Dawn alone without the help of Francis, but why did he still fail himself.
"When two armies are at war, no matter who fights, they can pray to God for victory, but God will always be on the side of the army with more and stronger numbers, and the evil dragon has a wealth that is not inferior to that of a human king, and a great treasure that is not inferior to that of a prince like me."
Liam shook his glass and told the truth, while looking at William, who was frustrated, flicked his glass with his hand and said, "Would you like a glass of whiskey?" ”
William took the wine glass and subconsciously took a sip, a smell of honey swept through his throat, and then he felt spicy, he wanted to spit out the wine in his mouth, but when he saw Liam's smiling expression, he blushed and swallowed it.
"Am I not dead? Why can I still drink. William said suspiciously, although the physical figure was a little illusory, but according to Liam, this was not the realm of Lady Holler, so it was not the underworld, and it was not heaven or territory.
"As I said, this is not Miss Holler's realm, it's another world. There is another world outside of ours, a world inhabited by various gods and ghosts, and as for your state, you are in the realm of ascending and immortality, which can be said to be both life and death, just like the gods, ghosts and spirits in the forest. Liam explained with a sip of whiskey.
"I don't need your comfort, and I don't want to listen to your wordplay, you just call me a geist, an undead." William said helplessly.
"No, it's not comfort, it's not a play on words. Your state is very peculiar, elves are not considered undead, they are living, I use a concept that you can understand, that is, although your body is dead, your soul is still alive, in short, it is out of body. Liam shook his hand in correction.
"And what about me leaving this world?" William asked.
"Your soul can neither go to heaven nor hell, let alone enter the underworld of Lady Holler, but will only wander in the world forever, William, let me give you a suggestion, instead of living a wandering life, it is better to stay in this other world, I just lack a servant. The Danan Protoss used to be the ruler of Ireland, until the Gaelic invasion would come, the Danan Protoss were defeated, so they retreated to the ground, creating a different world that existed parallel to the earthly world, and the expelled gods lived in the depths of this world, this is a peaceful world, as long as you get used to it, then you will fall in love here, I used to be a human prince, and now I am an elf, and my life is just as pleasant. ”
Liam raised his glass to William, trying to persuade William to stay, what is wrong with being an elf, long life, the gods are always holding banquets, this is really quite a comfortable and comfortable day.
The ancient gods existed in this world before the coming of the great Father, and after the coming of God into this world, the ancient gods have never disappeared, although they have fallen into silence.
The influence of the Greek gods of Olympus declined sharply after the rise of Rome, Zeus, the king of the gods, became Jupiter, Hes, the queen of heaven, became Juno, Ares, the god of war, became Mars, the god of war, and Athena, the goddess of wisdom, became Minova.
When Christianity became the state religion of Rome, both the Greek and Roman gods became heretical.
The Greek (Roman) gods are the beliefs of the Greeks and Romans in the past, the Norse gods led by the great god Odin and the thunder god Thor are the beliefs of the barbarian Germanic people in the past, and the Danan gods are the beliefs of the Celts in the past.
The Roman Empire abandoned the Greek gods, as did Charlemagne of the Germanic people, as did the Celts of Ireland and Wales.
King Arthur, the famous hero of Celtic mythology, was a devout warrior of God and a model of paladin.
"I beg your pardon, I want to go back to earth. I don't understand why I'm back here. ”
William shook his head, rejecting Liam's invitation, wondering at the same time.
Although according to Liam, this is a different world similar to the secular world, but this otherworld is below Britain in Celtic mythology, and he is located in the middle of the Holy Roman Empire (Germany), so it is impossible to travel this far.
"It's the power of the Golden Coin of Destiny, it can't protect your body, but it does protect your soul. It tried to set its fate right, but the dragon was too strong. The power of the Destiny Gold Coin itself is also limited, because the evil dragon is very strong, so when the evil dragon uses the Destiny Gold Coins, the weak human brave will lose the favor of the gods, the favor of fate, etc., and the evil dragon will still be strong if he loses these, so the evil dragon can use the power of the Destiny Gold Coin unscrupulously. ”
Liam said slowly, with a teasing look in his eyes, "If it is used by humans, even if it is judged to be unfavorable to the evil dragon, the evil dragon can forcibly suppress the power of the Destiny Gold Coin through its own strength, because the weak power cannot affect the strong power, and the evil dragon is an unfavorable force that can repel the Destiny Gold Coin on him, but the brave cannot." ”
William's heart is bitter, this is like a child and an adult, the child and the adult agree not to use weapons to fight, the result is that it doesn't matter to the adult whether to use a weapon or not, even if the adult gives up a hand, this is a sure win.
"Although the gold of fate cannot affect the evil dragon, it can affect you, and by supporting you, you can gain the power to compete with the evil dragon. I have to say, the time of your death is really a good day, and now October is our festival of Sahain. ”
"Sahaen is a particularly dangerous time because it is a time of 'non-existence' at the junction of the old year and the new year, when the whole world is turned upside down and all kinds of gods and spirits come to the earth and wander among the crowd."
"William, do you know what that means? You can use your soul to appear in the human world in a physical way. ”
"You can easily achieve the impossible, the transition between life and death, and in layman's terms, this is the resurrection."
