27. The Sin of Reproduction (5.5k)
"Because... Crazy with a desire? "Ahh
Hook kissed and touched her chin, Asuka Karasawa was frightened, and Fisher then opened his mouth and asked Heriel,
"Wishes, what wishes did she make, does it have anything to do with forbidden knowledge?"
Hearing Heriel's words, Fisher's first thought was about completing the taboo knowledge in the manual, which brought great abilities to the owner but also brought them madness, could it be that Gabriel thirsted for forbidden knowledge from the Holy Grail to make her crazy.
Hearing the so-called "forbidden knowledge" in Fisher's mouth, a trace of imperceptible meaning flashed in Helaire's beautiful eyes, and then, her smile deepened, she shook her head and said,
"Forbidden knowledge, although I don't know what you're talking about, but you have to know that all living beings in this world are [believers in order], and Archangel Gabriel is no exception, of course they won't do such dangerous things. We probably know the details of her wish to Archangel Shaliah..."
I don't know if it's intentional, Fisher always felt that Hellier was a little heavier on the word "believer in order", but before he could delve into it, Hellel had already continued to speak,
"She asked for a child from the Holy Grail." Diaphragm
"Kid?"
"Yes, didn't I tell you before, although angels have no gender, but our personalities will have obvious biases, and Angel Gabriel is such an angel who is naturally biased towards women. I guess she wanted to be a mother a long time ago, who knows, anyway, in the end, the wish she made to the Holy Grail was indeed true. ”
Fisher opened his mouth, and even Asuka Karasawa didn't understand the difference between her wishes and her madness, but her eyebrows were raised, as if she had thought of something.
Fisher, a little puzzled, asked,
"I don't understand why a child needs to use wishes, or does she not even think about bonding with someone else?"
Heriel smiled and did not answer, she looked at the hook kiss behind Fisher, and said to him,
"Isn't this whale species a doctor, he should know more about this kind of thing than I do, or let him explain it to you?" Diaphragm
Fisher and Tang Ze Asuka both turned their heads to look at Hook Kiss, and when they saw him smile helplessly, they shrugged their shoulders and said,
"Ah, no problem... Mr. Fisher, yes, I don't know if you know about the two concepts of life and reproduction that have been put forward by human beings. ”
"I know."
Tang Ze Asuka tilted her head suspiciously, confused, she couldn't understand any of the nouns they said, but she didn't open her mouth to interrupt the words of the hook kiss,
"That's good, but what we're going to talk about next is probably unknown to human beings, because the gap between human levels and the mythical level is too far and too far away, and there are not many existing mythical creatures, and there are few opportunities to summarize; So in general, the rules they summarized are applicable in most cases, except for mythical creatures. ”
"As long as they are mythical creatures, it will be extremely difficult for them to reproduce, even if they are of very similar reproductive rank and are all of the same race. You know, mythical creatures will distort the existing rules to a certain extent, but there is always a high probability that there will be children, and the steps to truly become the shackles of mythical creatures are actually the process of locking the mother body in the spirit world and injecting souls into it. ”
"There are three stages in the process of the advent of a new life, the first is to form a [pedestal] to inherit the soul in reality, that is, the egg fertilized in the mother's womb; The second is to lock this pedestal from the sea of consciousness in the spirit world and inject souls into it; Finally, the pedestal is bound to the soul and let them grow as part of a new life..."
"The bad thing about mythical creatures is that their bodies and souls are combined, which means that it is difficult for the spirit world to lock the pedestal, and it is difficult to inject the soul into the fertilized egg, and of course there is no way to talk about the birth of life... No matter how the parents cultivate the part that is the base, the final birth will only be a [stillborn]. ”
Fisher shrank slightly, for he suddenly remembered something he had heard.
As a mythical creature, the Moon Princess, she also once had a child with her husband, but she was born a soulless stillborn, fortunately she knew the contributor of the manual to the subhuman mother at the time, and then the contributor to the manual brought back a whale doctor from the ocean, and then the stillborn...
Well?
Thinking about it, Fisher suddenly raised his eyes in disbelief and looked at the hook kiss with a warm smile in front of him.
It seems that this guy in front of him is also a whale race, and he is also a doctor.
Is it possible that the whale doctor who finished the manual was the one who was worshipped by Yaren Niang was Hook Kiss? Diaphragm
In other words, the contributor to the manual is a woman, and according to the degree of strict wife control such as hook kiss, won't his wife have an opinion on the contributor?
"Mr. Fisher? What happened to you? ”
Fisher came back to his senses, shook his head, and spoke,
"It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly thought of an experience related to this incident... I've seen examples of mythical creatures failing to give birth to babies before, and combined with what you've said, I now know why. ”
Hook Kiss glanced at Fisher understandingly, then looked at Helier next to him, and said,
"It's okay, this matter is also a specific principle that I have been studying for a long time to know, not to mention that you don't know, most mythical creatures don't know about it either, and they won't notice it until they fail to reproduce."
Helier smiled and nodded, spreading his hands in response
"I did only find out about this today, after all, angels and elves basically don't have any desire to reproduce, but as smart as Lord Gabriel, she must know about it, otherwise she wouldn't have gone directly to Lord Shaliye to ask for a wish, but randomly found another angel to reproduce... But unfortunately, even if she is as smart as her, she still misses one thing. ”
"The main god Ramastia not only limits our ability to reproduce, but also limits the total number of mythical species when he gives some of the power to create life to the Heavenly Lock, the World Tree, and the Dragon God. Now there are 94 angels and 106 elves, and it is estimated that the main god originally wanted to let the three adults share these places, but the dragon god Ferma Bahar is too arrogant and too lazy to create life, so all these places are occupied by Lord Sky Lock and the World Tree..."
"So, don't say that the dragon god doesn't have the heart to create life, even if he has the most life power among the three, no matter how hard he bothers to create life, there will be no third mythical species. So, even though Lord Gabriel bypassed the first blockade of our ability to reproduce and used the power of life to create her children, she still did not escape the rules set by the Lord God Ramastia. ”
Helaire sighed and spoke,
"Her child was indeed born, with a healthy soul and body, and was the only naturally born cherub with her blood flowing, and all the angels in the sanctuary loved her child... It wasn't until a few months later that her child died early because of the rules, and the pain of losing her child also made her fall into madness. Actually, Master Gabriel wasn't strictly insane, she just hadn't recovered from the death of her child, even though it had been almost a hundred years. ”
"At that time, on the high platform, the crystal she was holding in her arms was the remains of her deceased child."
Hearing what Hellier said, Asuka Karazawa, who was standing behind Fisher, pursed her lips and squeezed her fist vigorously until her fingertips were a little white. Diaphragm
"Is that so..."
Fisher also sighed, but he didn't know Gabriel at all, and of course he didn't regret it too much, but for the first time he knew about the reproduction of mythical species.
"Want to know the little secrets of other angels? I know a lot..."
Fisher was not polite at all when he heard this, and directly approached Pandora's information,
"Can you tell me a little more about the Angel of Shaliya?"
Helaire still smiled, and then suddenly raised his index finger and shook it mischievously at Fisher,
"Zero points, zero points..."
Fisher is not a dull man, especially after getting a little understanding of the temperament of Helier in front of him,
“... You don't want me to ask you a little secret, do you? ”
"Guess what?"
“......”
With a wave of his hand, Helaire turned and leapt down the cylindrical passage in front of him, quickly turning into a streamer of light and disappearing in place, leaving only the three of them staring at each other on the empty seventh day.
......
...... Diaphragm
Time passed little by little, and for the time being, I moved my gaze from the seventh day down to the sixth day, which was very unique in the cold universe.
The sixth day of the Sanctuary does not have a large number of beautiful and intricate buildings, and does not have a variety of functions or forging places like other heavens, and since the sixth day was taken over by Archangel Gabriel, it has always had only one purpose, and that is to store wisdom.
As Gabriel's territory, there were no other angels on the sixth day, and many angels or archangels would come to ask her questions when Gabriel was still awake, but since she lost her son, it has become as empty and cold as her heart.
】
The so-called "Wisdom Vortex" is actually the place where Gabriel has stored his thoughts and wisdom in words for thousands of years, and in a general sense, it is somewhat similar to a library, and of course there are also means of observing the earth, otherwise Gabriel would not be able to sit in the Wisdom Vortex and know so many things on the ground.
In the center of the whirlpool, stacks of scattered books are stacked, and countless square and heavy books are placed on the tall and wide stone shelves, and in the center of the stacked bookshelves, there is an angel with empty eyes and a thin but still beautiful body.
There were no wings behind her, only illusory eyes that seemed to be constantly trembling and crying, and her body was fragile curled up in the air, clutching the oval crystal in her arms.
"Sleep... Sleep... Good baby. "Ahh
“......”
The ethereal sound of sleep echoed in the library, making the square figure standing alone on the windowsill of the whirlpool look rather gloomy, the figure tremblingly looking at the scene below the windowsill, the male duck in his mouth kept muttering something,
"Woo woo, Fisher, you must be alright... Your mom, I've got a neurotic here, doesn't sleep and sings all the time, scaring the great book Sir to death... You must hurry up and save me. ”
It was none other than the great book Sir Emhart, who spoke.
He shook his body pitifully, stood on the windowsill as if he was afraid of the cold, and then he could not help but fly up and flew towards a bookshelf.
Gabriel in the middle of the room was extremely high, having reached the peak of the nineteenth rank, and any simple action made Emhardt feel extremely oppressive, so he found a place to shrink and prayed that Fisher would come and save him.
But as he flew, his eyes kept glancing at the books on the shelves around him, like a plate of delicacies placed in front of a hungry man, and he couldn't stop swallowing. Diaphragm
These books... It feels so fragrant... I've never seen it...
What are these books about?
Emhardt floated in mid-air, struggling to glance at the books, tentatively flew to the bookshelf, glanced at the angel Gabriel who was still floating in the air and whispered and sobbed, then blinked, and flew towards the books on the bookshelf uncontrollably.
"I'm locked up here anyway, as long as I don't go out, it shouldn't be a big deal, don't look at it for nothing..."
Emhardt thought to himself, and then took out a book from the shelf and put it on the floor, ready to press it down and read it to his heart's content.
"Well, tapir race, is there such a subhuman... Well, it sounds a lot like the elephant race of the Southern Continent, and it has a long nose. ”
"There is still a level of knowledge in human society... Anyway, what age is it now, it should be very early, if the World Tree is still there, it should be before the [First Soul War]... Well, that is, at least 9,000 years ago, did humans have a hierarchy theory at this time? "Ahh
Emhart pouted and stared at the open page in front of him, the words on which they appeared were strange, seemingly efficient and efficient in the language of angels, the handwriting was golden and unconventional, as if it had been written by an angel himself.
As he read, Emhart looked at the strange telescope-like artifact placed at the edge of the library, facing straight to the ground and looking into the sea of stars in space, which seemed to be the tool that the angel Gabriel used to observe the ground.
"Whoa..."
As Emhardt was intently flipping through the book, he didn't seem to realize that behind him, a humanoid shadow was expanding, and when he reacted, his entire book was lifted up by a strange force,
"Woo-a-aa-aa! Let go of me, let go of me! If you don't let me go, I'll call Fisher... Woo-ahh He's got a hand at dealing with ladies.... Woo-ah-ah..."
Emhart circled in mid-air for many times, muttering a great deal of words that he didn't even understand, until a few seconds later he stopped and looked around in a daze, only to realize that he had been pulled to the center of the many bookshelves, and the terrifying angel holding the crystal was looking at him expressionlessly.
As soon as I brushed it, the cold sweat on Emhart's head fell... Well, if he had, but probably he was so flustered that he fell to the ground and turned into a harmless book and pretended to be dead. Diaphragm
“......”
Gabriel looked at Emhart below blankly, not attacking at all, but as if he was frightened by the moving book in front of him, he hugged the crystal in his arms a little tighter,
"Don't be afraid... Don't be afraid... Baby, we don't look at this ugly guy..."
"Your mother! Who do you say is the ugly guy?! ”
The book sir, who pretended to be dead, immediately stopped when he heard this, no one can say that the great book sir is ugly, he is the creation of the great saint, to say that he is ugly is to insult the saint, to insult the dignity of the saint, he will absolutely...
Oh, it's the saints who scold themselves, that's fine.
Emhart was silent for a moment, but when he looked up at the terrifying angel in front of him, he turned around in mid-air holding the crystal in his arms, all of them turned their backs on him, as if he was ugly by himself. Diaphragm
“... Hmph, the great book Sir is too lazy to bother with you in general. ”
Emhart called out in a very small, very small mutter, and seeing that Gabriel seemed to be completely oblivious to his own meaning, he carefully moved out little by little, ready to fly towards the book he had just read.
But behind him, Gabriel, who was floating in mid-air, turned around a little bit, and looked lovingly at the crystal in her arms, which was warmed by her, and vaguely saw that there was a thin shadow curled up in the center of the crystal that could not see the specific shape.
"Good... Shrewd... Baby..."
Emhart glanced back at Gabriel behind him, and after waiting for two seconds, he flew back towards the book in front of him again.
"Kakaka!"
But at this moment, an extremely terrifying sound suddenly came from outside the library, as if the terrifying heat of the end of the world scorched the aetheric ocean that enveloped the Sanctuary to restlessness, and the high temperature of the sun made a deafening noise. Diaphragm
"Dongdong, Dongdong!"
All the bookshelves on the sixth day shook, and the transparent windows around them were almost instantly illuminated by the sun's rays, and Emhardt's eyes narrowed uncomfortably.
"Your mother, it's so bright!"
On the fifth day, the Ring of the Sun was in motion, but Emhardt had no idea what was going on below, and he stayed in Gabriel's library, worried about Fisher's situation.
"Don't be afraid... Don't be afraid... Baby... Woo... Baby..."
The entire library shook violently, and Gabriel, who was at the peak of the nineteenth order, was actually frightened by the huge sound of the sun ring shaking at this time, and her eyes were ruddy and wanted to reach out to cover her eyes and ears for the crystal in her arms, for fear that the dazzling light outside would scare her child, but after searching for a long time, she couldn't find the eyes and ears that could be touched on the round crystal.
It was in this torment that Gabriel's body trembled and feared more and more, and the hundreds of illusory eyes floating behind her all turned white, as if to express her trembling and uneasiness. Diaphragm
"Don't be afraid... Never mind... Don't cry... Don't cry... Baby..."
Emhart turned his head to look at Gabriel, who was holding a stone behind him, and he could hear any crying, but looking at the extremely dazzling sunlight outside, he still sighed and flew to the window of the library, biting the curtains hanging on it and lowering them one by one, until the windows on all sides were covered by curtains, and then he lay down on a bookshelf to rest breathlessly,
"Hey, I've really suffered my life, I've been adrift for half my life, I've been caught by that horrible guy who has been by, I've finally been better off by Fisher's side, and he's been taken away... No! The angel beside him is Bymun! I have to save him... As long as that guy appears, there must be nothing good, you must control your lower body, don't have a relationship with her, I beg you... Ay. ”
Emhart, who was still talking about Fisher until this time, was unaware of his hard work, but at least Gabriel, who had been cut off from the harsh sunlight at this time, had quieted down a little...
I don't know if it's an illusion, her empty and sad eyes finally trembled, the murmur in her mouth finally calmed down, and the illusory eyes behind her finally changed back to their original beautiful appearance.
"Baby... That's good... Good job..."
