81. Interlude

"You mean, that Ideal Country was created by Margaret?"

Fisher grabbed the message in Pandora's last sentence and asked, and Pandora nodded in affirmation,

"That's right, I didn't go deep into their city-state at that time, I only met the inhabitants there in the wilderness. I can see that the person who transferred is very attractive, and I see a strong desire to reproduce in many male humans and even subhumans. Although it is not enough for you in case, you are a special case that requires additional exploration. In their desires, they called Margaret 'the leader'. ”

Fisher was slightly stunned, and suddenly didn't catch Pandora's ridicule in front of him, although he has seen through the ability of these mythical people to see through the transfer and the owner of the manual, but every time he was discovered by the reproduction power of the sub-human mother to complete the manual, he was still a little unnatural, blaming the inappropriate sub-human sub-human mother to complete the manual.

Since you can also find the settlement known as the 'Ideal Country', the elven species who have lost such an important thing will be even more anxious to find the whereabouts of the other party, and there is no reason why they should not know where Margaret has gone. That is, Margaret found some way to threaten the elves so that they would not dare to act rashly? Is it possible that it is because of the loom of fate? ”

Pandora smiled slightly, even if she didn't have eyes, she could already express her thoughts by her expression alone,

"You're smart, but she's a transferee, but it's unlikely that she'll be able to fully harness the power of the loom of fate, which alone won't stop the elves. Although it may have something to do with the loom of fate, there must be other factors present. I'll be looking for more information on this part, and you can rest in the Sanctuary during this time. You guys aren't satisfied with the freedom you got from retrieving the World Tree's teardrop information, right? ”

As with the previous deal with Pandora, the news of bringing back the World Tree Teardrops from the Tree Continent for her would only restore their freedom, and further rewards, such as allowing Fisher to see the Holy Grail itself, would require the World Tree Teardrops to be retrieved for her.

Fisher remembered that he and Emhardt had come across another pair of conscious relics in the future, her prosthetic eyes, which meant that Pandora's desire to find the World Tree Teardrops was because of her missing eyes.

But the problem lies in two aspects, that is, why Pandora, who is an archangel, is different from other archangels, except that she has no eyes; On the other hand, if you want to create a prosthetic eye, why can't you ask Mikhail, who is also inlaid with a mechanical prosthetic eye, for help?

Unless, the prosthetic eye forged by the ordinary relic, not the one Mikhail brought back from another world, must be consciously relic.

Thinking of this, the expression on Fisher's face remained unchanged, nodded and agreed, and said by the way,

"Okay, we'll hear from you. But I have another request, I want to meet my book friend, and I want to make sure he is safe. ”

Pandora, who had just turned her head to pick out the forging materials, paused slightly, and then saw her raise her head a little, and said with some distress,

"He. Honestly, I can make sure he's in good shape, but it's hard to arrange for you to meet. Previously, in order to prevent Michael from taking him to study in private, I gave him to the delirious Gabriel for safekeeping. But since Michael went there to look for information, the sixth day was completely closed, and now no one can enter, except Gabriel and your friend who is a relict of consciousness. Maybe Gabriel was also annoyed by Michael, so he did this, right?

"You can try to open the door to the sixth day, but I would advise against it at the end. Gabriel, who has lost his god, can do everything, Gabriel's level is not lower than that of Tao Gong, you don't want to face an angel who wants to take your life, right? ”

Fisher was silent for a moment before turning to take his leave, preparing to leave with Asuka Karasawa, but as soon as he reached the door, Pandora's gentle voice came again,

"If you don't mind, send a message for me to Heller, who is recuperating the next day, and let her come and see me. Of course, better yet, it's not too late for you to stay by her side during this time to accompany her to recover from her injuries and then tell her. ”

“.”

Fisher's expressionless face fell slightly, he didn't say yes or no, he just left with Asuka Karasawa who had been secretly watching him.

In the lighthouse after Fisher left, Pandora, who sat alone in the same place, was silent for a moment, as if she felt something.

The smiling expression on her face faded slightly, and then she slowly removed the silk covering her eyes, revealing the flat part of it that had no eye structure.

Her white fingers caressed her cheek little by little, rubbing back and forth against the empty place as if caressing a hideous scar, and as she stroked slowly, the flesh there faded little by little, and changed back to its truest form.

I saw that the part of her eyes was full of hideous flesh without skin, and under the place where the eyes were originally placed were densely writhing like curse-like flesh branches, and if you looked closely, the branches there seemed to contain authority like the astral plane.

"Ding Ding Ding"

With a crisp sound that seemed to come from outside the realm, countless fine branches of flesh and blood rose to the sky one after another, and with the movement of the branches of flesh, Pandora's face seemed to be filled with bursts of intense pain.

She covered her face in pain and fell to her knees, allowing drops of horrible angelic blood to ooze from her empty eyes, but she still fell to her knees, and said in a trembling voice,

"What do you command when the god Shaliye is here?"

In her sight, which had been devoid of the light, she finally saw a concrete scene at this moment when she was connected to somewhere outside the sky, and it was the only thing she could see.

She first saw a deep starry sky, and it was as if she heard a sound like forging, but those forges were not the same as usual, just the holy relics of the forging gospel, she saw the birth and rupture of the stars, the boundaries of matter, and He who continued to cultivate at the edge of the universe.

That is, the true body of a righteous God!

"Buzz!"

As the terrifying coercion of the eternal desolation came, in Pandora's gaze, she saw the things that would make her feel terrified and surprised every time she said goodbye, and that emotion urged her to fear, even if she was a nineteenth-order archangel, her body trembled uncontrollably.

She didn't dare to look at it anymore, and quickly lowered her head, and the sight in the distant starry sky sank little by little, until it landed on a barren planet, and a holy back was suspended above that planet.

Behind that shadow was four pairs of white wings, like gods watching the silent deep space frontier, and like a solid lock blocking the end of matter.

That was one of the three demigods born to Ramastia, Yahweh, the Lock of Heaven.

"Shaliye, the World Tree said that my angel entered her Tree Continent and injured her child in front of her?"

The back was motionless, except for a neutral, heavenly solomon-like voice, which was calm, but made Pandora's head even lower.

"God, I'm really scared, but please let me explain this"

Pandora told all the things she had learned from Fisher about the Elf King and the Peach Prince, and incidentally informed the noble back of the theft of the loom of fate, and then she did not dare to move again, only humbly bowed her head, waiting for the response of the Heavenly Lock.

The back of the Heavenly Lock was silent for a moment before asking,

"You mean, there are two people who have been transferred from the Sanctuary Domain, and there are three people from the Tree Continent who stole the Loom of Destiny?"

"That's right, I'm stupid, I just think that the person who is transferred is the enemy, even if he dies, it doesn't matter. It just so happened that there was a whale species on the Sanctuary recently, and since I learned about the closure of the Jianmu Palace in the Tree Continent, I used the freedom of these three sinners to blackmail them into finding out the truth for me, and I had no other intentions. ”

I see. I'll solve it on the World Tree, and the two transferred people will keep it, and as for the whale man, I can keep it. The mother was left alone at the bottom of the sea, and the whales could hear her voice, and they should not kill any of them unless necessary. Leave the matter of the Loom of Destiny alone, and leave it to the elves to solve. ”

"Yes, I will inform my fellow citizens of the oracle."

Pandora bowed her head and responded, but the missing eye hurt more and more, as if it was going to hurt her heart.

What she knew, she knew when she was created by the Locks of Heaven to serve as an emissary: only demigods can look directly at the true gods, and only three demigods can know the secrets of the true body of the true gods.

Even an angel like her, who is so close to a demigod, is severely cursed, so from the day she was chosen by the Heavenly Lock to be an oracle, she was gouged out of her eyes and heart, and she must not divulge a single secret about the true gods.

Pandora lowered her head, letting the angelic blood on her face drip to the ground, but she still didn't dare to move her body.

But after waiting for a long time, the Heavenly Lock did not respond, leaving only the dead silence that had fallen back into darkness and filled her sight.

The Locks of Heaven have quietly broken the link.

In the silence that did not respond, Pandora's outstretched hand grasped the forging material next to him little by little, and pressed her head against the ground, her whole body trembling uncontrollably.

“.”

She just didn't understand why it was her.

Pandora remained in this posture as if punishing herself, silent as if she were in place, only to wonder in her heart.

On the sixth day, inside the library of the Wisdom Vortex.

A boxy book was carefully shuttling through the huge shelves, and he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief with each shelf, until he had passed through several bookshelves, and then he stopped in the middle of one of the bookshelves, and collapsed as if he had collapsed.

He slipped on the bookshelf as if he had lost his strength, looked at the ceiling with a somewhat dry expression on his face, and whispered,

"Ah, that guy should have rested and didn't come to me. It's scary, it's scary. Whew, Fisher, when are you going to pick me up, I can't hold on anymore."

Yes, this book is Fisher's long-awaited Ouchi president. No, good friend, great book Sir Emhart.

"Knock"

Just when Emhardt was finally able to breathe for a moment while lying on the bookshelf, there was a dull crashing sound from the bookshelf in the distance, and he was so frightened that he immediately floated up and looked in that direction vigilantly, for fear of seeing that terrifying figure.

He pursed his lips, but when he looked at his wary gaze, there were only slightly swaying curtains, and there were some terrible figures there.

"I scared myself."

He breathed a sigh of relief, and was just about to lie down, when he turned back to find an expressionless, dumb face staring at him on the other side of the bookshelf.

It was a beautiful pale brown angel, but I don't know why the expression on her face was so dull that it made people think that she was not normal, but the illusory float that seemed to have a hundred and ten eyes floating behind the angel showed her authority and extremely high rank all the time.

She is an archangel at the top of the nineteenth rank, representing Gabriel, the angel of wisdom.

"Ahh!!h What the hell!! Fisher, save me! ”

Emhardt's revenant turned his head and was about to fly away, but before he could fly out, he was easily caught by Gabriel's outstretched hand, and his proud speed was surprisingly slow in front of Gabriel, and of course it was controlled without incident.

The moment he was caught, Emhart's expression instantly turned into a dead fish eye, as if he had experienced such a thing many times, and he could predict what would happen next.

"Little Norbu, where are you going? I went back to sleep with my mother. When did you learn to fly, it's really amazing."

Sure enough, in the next second, Emhart was hugged into Gabriel's arms, and the other crystal in her arms was squeezed into her broad and soft chest, wrapped in the overflowing motherhood.

But Emhardt was not Fisher, he did not feel comfortable in the bosom of women, he only felt miserable.

Yes, after all this time they had spent together, Gabriel's illness deepened.

She began to see Emhart as her second child, the crystal broken brother in her arms, and gave herself the broken name "Nobu".

"But little Norbu is not well-behaved, you have to be as well-behaved as my brother. If you keep running around like this, you might get hurt, and your mother will be very worried about you. ”

Gabriel carried Emhardt, who had failed to escape for two hundred and twenty-seven times, shuttling among the bookshelves, and in his loveless expression, he once again returned to the center of the Vortex.

At this moment, this place is not only empty, Gabriel also took out a lot of baby supplies from the utility room of the Wisdom Vortex, which seems to have been prepared for her infant who died before, as well as the crib, the aura charger used by the sky, various holy toys, and so on

"It's bedtime, it's time to sleep with my brother, little Norb."

Gabriel placed the crystal in his arms on the crib, then lifted the quilt and prepared to lay Emhart next to the crystal containing the baby's phantom.

Emhart hurriedly struggled and shouted angrily,

"I don't want it! Your mother! Sleep every day, sleep every day, sleep all the time every day! I don't want it! Let me go! Ahhh ”

But of course, he could not escape from Gabriel's hands.

Only this time, Gabriel, who had a dull expression, actually held Emhart in both hands and placed it in front of him for the first time.

Faced with this sudden and unseen movement, Emhart froze in place, not knowing what new reaction Gabriel had.

In the next second, Gabriel tilted her head and picked up the spherical relic, which looked like a small sun next to her, which was the aura charger used by the angels to replenish energy, and then she slammed the extremely dazzling ball of light into Emhart's face, and said with confusion,

"Is Little Norb hungry? There's something charged here."

"Your mother!"

Emhardt's slightly open mouth was stuffed with such a large ball of light, which made him angry at once.

He hurriedly spit out the ball of light in his mouth, and scolded Gabriel with a dull expression in front of him.

"Your mother! How many times have I said it, I'm not a Nobu! My name is Emhart and I am a great book sir! Your child is dead, the crystal I don't know my name, you know?! Don't name me, just treat it like a child! Don't bother me, okay?! ”

After this scolding, Gabriel in front of him still didn't react at all, just kept raising Emhart with his hands like a puppet, and kept looking at him blankly.

Emhart's high anger subsided little by little in the other party's dull eyes, perhaps because he couldn't bear it, perhaps because he was too lazy to deal with the already crazy angel, and after confronting Gabriel for several seconds, he sighed again and was defeated.

Then Emhardt's eyes turned into the eyes of a dead fish, and he cleared his throat and read without emotion,

"Ah, Mom, Nobu is so sleepy, let me go to sleep. Boom, boom, boom."

Gabriel finally reacted to the sound of the duckling's voice, and saw her slowly hold the book in her arms, and then carefully placed Emhart next to the crystal in the crib where he was already lying on a crystal, and covered him with a quilt tightly.

"Little Norbu, sleep well, grow up well, Mom is next to you."

“.”

Then Gabriel got up and gently shook the stroller with his hand, and the slight shaking sensation came from him, but it did not shake the dead fish eyes from Emhart's face at all.

He turned his head to look at the crystal next to him that seemed to contain a baby phantom, and then twisted around as if he was cold, turned his back to the crystal, and couldn't help but whisper,

"Hey, Fisher, when are you going to pick me up? You're going to have to be good during my absence, that guy is a guy who eats people and doesn't spit out bones, and if you're not careful, you'll definitely fight with her."

Emhart, who was lying in the crib, didn't notice that Gabriel, who was shaking the crib slightly, seemed to hear him.

Then, she tilted her head sluggishly and looked away at the world beyond the Wisdom Vortex.
