"How's it going, isn't it good?"

"You look good."

At the trinket shop in the city, Fisher chooses a ring for Renee that looks good.

The mines of the southern continent are rich in precious metals and diamonds, and after the craze for exploitation, greedy human traders racked their brains to transport them back and carved them into glittering ornaments that were beloved by the noblewomen of Nari.

Women love things that sparkle and complement their beauty even more when the brilliance of those ornaments shines on their bodies.

A few years ago, there was some joke about this, because some unknown merchants brought back certain magical materials that were beautiful but could not be directly touched with people and packaged them as accessories, resulting in the skin of the women who wore them festering, resulting in the largest lawsuit in the century.

The choice for Renee was a sparse and usual silver carved ring, which happened to be worn by Fisher on her middle finger, and it looked particularly good.

She stretched out her fingers contentedly, and then took Fisher's hand, not knowing what it would look like to outsiders under the wrapping of the secret blessing.

"Then the next stop is the theater, I haven't seen Nari's play in a long time, we used to go all the time"

"yes, it's a waste that you finally bought a ticket in the front row and then you fell asleep there."

Renee puffed her cheeks and hammered him on the shoulder with her ringed pink fist, muttering,

"Swear to the Mother Goddess, I will never sleep this time!"

"Isn't the Mother Goddess your predecessor, what's the use of you swearing to yourself?"

"All said, I'm not my predecessor." Renee pouted, then added, "If only I were my predecessor." ”

"How?"

"Well, because He's selfless and great, at least for humanity." Renee smiled and explained, pointing to the Mother God Cult signs that could be seen everywhere on the streets, and the magnificent, huge, and still bustling Church of St. Nari not far away, "Isn't it generally a character that should be celebrated in human culture that he can go to war with the gods for the sake of humanity and teach humans the tools to protect themselves?" ”

"I don't believe in the Mother Goddess, so it's good that you're Renee."

"That's right."

Renee took Alicia by the hand, glanced at Fisher, and didn't say much, just excitedly went to buy a ticket.

Originally, the theater only had evening performances, and the actors had a break from morning to afternoon, but it seems that the scale of the theater has expanded over the years, and the actors have the opportunity to do multiple performances, and even different plays will be staged on the stage in one day.

Renee held little Alicia in front of the ticket counter and pondered what to see, while Fisher stood behind them, looking at the cardinal who came and went in the middle of the street.

He didn't know what the cardinal's purpose was, to keep the law and order, to keep watch, or had Elizabeth spotted him sneaking out and was looking for him all over the city?

At the thought of this, Fisher inevitably swallowed a mouthful of saliva, a little worried.

But behind him, Renee gently patted him on the shoulder, making him come back from his speculation about Elizabeth,

"Don't be in a daze, come and help me think about which play to watch? "Revenge" or "General Baron"? ”

Fisher glanced at the ticket booth, there were three plays performed today, but in fact, because he was going back to the Golden Palace in the evening, he could only choose the first two, the two that Renee mentioned.

"General Barron" is a standard imported play, telling a story of Schwally's personal heroism. It describes the process of the ancient general Schwali being ordered to resist the enemy from the east, and under the situation of internal and external troubles surrounded by strong enemies by the mediocre emperor and courtiers, General Barron finally relied on his inspiring ability and the courage to fight the enemy, and his army advanced and retreated with life and death, and finally repelled the story of the strong enemy and returned triumphantly.

This story is very old-fashioned, with a certain realistic historical background, and it is more well-known and understandable than the other "Revenge".

As for "Revenge", this is the story that is changed by one of Nari's controversial classical masterpieces.

A kingdom has been invaded by an enemy, resulting in the loss of its land and the loss of its country. The prince of the kingdom escaped from his homeland alone and vowed to return to the old land to avenge his kingdom. He spent decades in incognito and recuperated in a distant country, and finally decided to go to an enemy country to assassinate the emperor who led to the demise of his country.

Many things happened along the way, he met his sister, who also fled incognito in the enemy country, and eventually married and had children to start a family, and the sister advised him to cherish his life and give up revenge; His sister's persuasion shook him very much, but he continued to move on, but on the way he met the general of his homeland who had been lying on his salary for a long time. The general not only helped him, but also used his life to hide the assassination plan for him that was almost revealed

So the prince went on his way, and with the will of the general, he approached the enemy king, and wanted to regain all that he had taken from him. But along the way, he saw the advancement of the enemy country, which seemed so strong and full of life compared to the mediocrity of his father, the old king, during the reign of the old king. On the way, he met the people of his homeland, who were now doing business, and he was further troubled by the fact that they seemed to be better off under the rule of the enemy than under his own father.

So he continued on his way, and finally came to the royal capital of the enemy country, where he secretly declared that he would burn the palace to the ground at the coming-of-age party of the princess of the enemy country. Overnight, the whole king was so caught up in the storm that they searched for the prince of his enemy, who had come to seek revenge like a ghost.

In the end, with great difficulty, he found a letter in a secret inn exhorting the enemy king to make great efforts, and the prince himself had long since departed and renounced the assassination.

Such a story has been adapted and discussed more than once in the literary history of Nari, and writers and politicians have debated the metaphors and ideas in the text.

Some say that this prince was wise because he was able to transcend his own hatred and pursue righteousness. It is also said that the prince is only seeking an excuse for his cowardice under the guise of righteousness.

There are many details in the text that imply that this prince is really a timid man, and even his revenge plan was germinated in his wife's cynicism, and after being persuaded by his sister who had already given birth, he was even more entangled, just worried that his wife would continue to ridicule him if he went back like this, so he continued to carry out the assassination plan.

In other words, it may be that the rule of the enemy country described in the book is just like that, and it is not even different from the rule of his homeland. It's just that because of his cowardice and cowardice, he subconsciously finds a reason to escape and beautifies everything that is currently running

Regardless of whether the prince in the story was a wise man who understood righteousness or a weak man who was as timid as a mouse, Fisher felt that this kind of story, which was full of text, would not be suitable for a five-year-old child like Alicia, or for the kind of big scene of slapstick.

Although "General Baron" may be later in terms of time, Fisher still suggested choosing this scene,

"Otherwise, just watch "General Baron", right?"

Renee blinked, looked back at the repertoire on it, and said,

"Is there too much time? It might be late to go back, so don't worry about getting caught by Elizabeth? ”

"Hurry up."

"How about watching "Revenge"? It seems to be a newly adapted version, and I don't know how it is interpreted, what do you think? ”

Fisher glanced at Renee, who didn't really care, since Renee wanted to see the scene, he had no choice but to agree.

Seeing that the negotiation was settled, Renee generously bought three front seats in front of her, and waited here for the audience to take their seats and wait for the show to officially begin.

While waiting for the play, Fisher glanced at Renee, who was full of anticipation next to him, and still wanted to ask her,

"Are you looking forward to it, I've brought you here so many times, and it's the first time I've seen you look forward to it so much."

"Hey, is it that obvious?"

"Yes."

"Well, there's a comparison. In the past, there were many opportunities to stay by your side for a long time. And at that time it was not as tense as it is now, the comfort when it is comfortable is not felt, only the comfort when it is busy is really comfortable, not to mention, I am now snatching you from that Elizabeth's hand. Heavy plus, let me look forward to it~"

I feel that the latter reason is the main reason why she is so happy.

But at the mention of this, Fisher's expression sank, and he still took the initiative to ask,

"So, what is the solution you have made with the gods that you can solve the prophecy of the end of the world?"

"Guys, please sit down, the drama is about to begin. Please refrain from making loud noises and eating food with pungent smells during the performance to ensure a normal experience for other audiences, thank you very much for your cooperation! ”

At this moment, the announcer on the stage had already walked out of behind the scenes, because it was an afternoon show, and "Revenge" was originally a relatively unpopular play, so there were not too many people in the theater who bought tickets to watch, and they only sat scattered apart, waiting for the opening of the play.

But no matter how big the audience is, the actors on stage still need to perform with all their heart.

That is, after the announcer retreated to the stage, the lights in the entire exhibition hall suddenly dimmed, making Renee's side face hazy.

Fisher was still staring at her for an answer, but Renee was just staring at the stage, watching the actors come out in costume in the first act.

In the midst of a river of iron horses, the down-and-out prince threw his farm tools on the ground amid his wife's disgusting taunts, and shouted in a dramatic voice,

"Ah, my homeland is ruined in the flames that spread in the night, but its owner can only flee in ashes, leaving the years to ferment like wine in the dark cellars",

The long, heavy drama makes people not interested, but in the afterglow, when he sees Renee's focused gaze, he can't help but pay attention to the performance in front of him.

As the text progressed, Fisher soon discovered that the version in front of him adopted the second version of the literary world, namely, that the prince was a real coward, and that he had given up the assassination not for any righteous purpose at all, but on the basis of cowardice and cowardice.

Fearful of a powerful enemy and a life-long assassination, he asked his struggling heart more than once what reason he should seek to give up the assassination.

Is it my sister's sincere consolation, the superiority of the enemy country hidden in the subtleties, and the risks of assassination?

As Fisher had expected, Alicia next to her was so drowsy by the heavy, meaningful drama that by the middle of the second act, she could no longer control her sleeping eyelids and fell asleep.

But it was also at this time that Fisher, who was engrossed in staring at the stage, suddenly heard Renee's extremely whispered question,

"Fisher, don't you believe that the gods and I can solve the prophecy of the end of the world?"

Fisher turned his head to look at her, only to find that she was still staring intently at the stage, so Fisher also turned his head to look in the direction of the stage, and responded,

"No, it's just that when I was in the Southern Continent before, I don't know if it's an illusion, I always have a premonition that I'm worried about you. Even if you've explained to me that you forgot to bring a lark, even if you brought a lark this time, I always feel that resolving the prophecy of the end of the world shouldn't and can't be as easy as your words suggest. ”

“.”

Renee looked at the stage, was silent for a while, and then sighed and explained,

Fisher, the so-called prophecy of the end of the world, is essentially nothing more than an invasion of the world. You have met people who have been transferred, and you should know that there is a wider world beyond the spiritual realm, beyond the ultimate. The invading enemies are the gods from outside the world, who are called 'chaos' but are essentially no different from the Ramatia themselves. Although they never spoke to me in detail about Lamastea, I noticed that they were very familiar with some of the gods who were coming."

“.”

Chaos, and gods are inherently indistinguishable?

At this moment, Fisher suddenly thought of the important clues that the Asian mother accused told herself through Sidi's mouth, she said:

[Gods are chaos]

Or is it that the authority of the gods – the authority of any god – is actually confusing to the reality within the cracks?

So the concept of chaos spoken of by the gods is not actually relative to them, but to this world?

"Are you saying that the gods, led by Ramastia, are actually from the same place as the gods who invaded this world?"

"Probably, my consciousness, which has been born in the spirit realm all along, is more of a native product in comparison. But even so, I wasn't that much different from them. Because Fisher, you should know that our essential characteristic is actually the authority within us."

The actors on the stage are using exaggerated expressions, exaggerated movements and singing voices to show the arc of the character, and Renee's explanation is just right,

"The gods' appearances, personalities, and characteristics are all strange and amorphous, and authority is the only common trait among them. Authority is a kind of power, a nature, it is the essential characteristic of every high-level being named [God], and it is also the simplest and straightforward unit used to measure the strength of a god. Authority is like mass, and the greater the mass, the greater the immensity of the divine power.

"I have one and only one authority over the other gods, and Lamastia has two, so that He can be honored as the Lord God, and many decisions in this world are controlled and controlled by Him. And the source of His blessing to you, Hidden Azandros, a great god who is more powerful than Ramastia and knows no amount of authority, prayed for protection, and thus a barrier was created to cut the world off from everything outside."

Fisher's thinking was quick, so he almost instantly made a guess from the clues given by the Asian mother,

"But something went wrong with the barrier, allowing the power of the gods outside to seep in, right?"

"Yes, Fisher, and that's the crux of the matter."

Renee sighed and asked with a smile,

The barrier was easily breached, and the power of Azandros vanished before the eyes of the invaders, revealing a huge gap called [Ultimate], which could only enter but not exit. So, can you imagine what level of existence it is to covet the existence of this world? ”

“.”

"That is no longer an enemy god for you and for us, a god of death, a god of death who has a scythe across the heads of all the gods in this world, including Ramastia. The so-called prophecy of the end of the world is to watch the Grim Reaper, who is so powerful that it is almost impossible to resist, turn into the end of the world, and burn everything to the end, nothing more. ”

Fisher opened his mouth, and a drop of cold sweat on his forehead gathered uncontrollably, but he still couldn't help but ask,

"Didn't Lamastia come from the same place as the invading enemies from outside, and didn't they know anything about this 'Grim Reaper'?"

Renee shook her head and said to Fisher,

"There are six types of invading forces that can be detected, but they are only familiar with four, corresponding to the [Life], [Cardinal], [Fate] and [Death] in the manual. As for the remaining two, they are completely unaware, and it must be one of the remaining two that has broken the barrier of Azanros."

The remaining two

It is recorded in Momo's confusion handbook that there are just two trees above and four trees below, which corresponds to Renee's statement.

The following four trees are relatively weak and well-known to the gods, and there is a high probability that there is only one foreign god with authority and the same level as the gods; The two trees on it are [Ocean of Consciousness] and [Scarlet Dream].

"I didn't lie to you when I said that there is a solution, several gods have different reactions to the upcoming prophecy of the end of the world, those who want to escape, those who want to stay where they are and wait for death, those who want to surrender, and those who want to resist."

Renee smiled slightly, and then added some information, I have to say that with the blessing of Azanrose, she can also tell more information to Fisher despite the chaotic gaze outside,

"But because the power of Azan Ross has not yet completely dissipated, the barrier can only enter and not exit, so it is useless to escape; Those who stayed where they were and waited to die ignored, and as for those who surrendered, they themselves quickly vetoed them, and I don't know why. Now, all that remains is the solution proposed by Lamastia to try to solve the prophecy of the end of the world. He gave him a concrete plan, and we are currently following it."

"If I'm not mistaken, this method must be one of the unknown gods, right? The chaos of [Soul] has been temporarily quieted, and the remaining one corresponds to the completion manual of [Magic], which is recorded by Momoko as [Scarlet Dream]. ”

"Well, you guessed it right"

On stage, the guards played by the actors have surrounded the hotel where the prince lives, but when they open the door to the room, only a small letter remains inside.

The prince had fled, and had flown away.

The whole story is also coming to an end after this plot.

In front of me, the music of the play is little by little, trying to bring the audience into an environment of reflection and immersion.

And beside her, Renee's voice became clearer and clearer in Fisher's ears.

She hesitated for a while, looking at the scene on the stage, but she still couldn't help but speak,

"But it is still unknown whether the unknown god of the Crimson can be defeated, and the Crimson Pollution in the spirit world has burst into power just under the influence of His power, and has thrown the entire Spirit World into chaos for thousands of years, and we have always had nothing to do with Him. At that time, we may face a righteous lord who is stronger than the spiritual world, not to mention the soul god who has disappeared in an unknown way, and it is unknown whether he will give up and leave."

A cruise ship sailing in the middle of the ocean, a grim reaper hovering aboard a ship and jokingly wielding a scythe, this is the world now, and the future that seems to be doomed.

From Renee's mouth, Fisher finally noticed that she had become extremely confused and a little human Thurso, and that fragility made him want to reach out and hold the palm that she thought should be cold, but before he could raise his hand, Renee had already taken the initiative to hold his hand and grabbed him gently.

In his slight stunnedness, Renee turned her head to look directly at Fisher, and she said,

"Maybe I'm a little selfish when I say that, Fisher, but do you know what I'm thinking now?"

"I want to."

"Can we leave all this alone, and we can escape through the fence of Azanoth to the world beyond the ultimate, and maybe we will survive."

Fisher opened his mouth, his eyes twinkled slightly, and the entire theater hall lit up with the music at the end of the play.

The actors came to the stage one after another to express their gratitude to the few audiences below, and soon stood full on stage, led by the prince who gave up revenge in "Revenge".

He smiled and bowed down, waving his hand to thank the audience, just like the prince who actually made the decision in that story.

But everyone knows that he is not the prince of that story, he is just an actor with very good acting skills, and he can't make any decisions for that fallen kingdom.

So, what about Fisher at the moment?

"Me"

"Fisher, you have the blessing of Azanrose, this is a pass, and the only thing in this world that has the smell of Azanrose, and the only way to get out of the confines to the outside world."

"But."

"I know, you might be worried about other people, those women you know? As long as they want to, I. We could have taken them out of here with us. There is still a long time before the true prophecy of the end of the world comes, and you can fully prepare them psychologically. I have authority comparable to the power of the gods, and you have a way to escape here. Even if you leave the spirit world and go outside the world, you can get through it unimpeded. The prophecy of the end of the world has always haunted this world, and as long as you leave here, everything here has nothing to do with us, does it? ”

Renee seemed to be a little frightened, so she even grabbed Fisher's hand tightly, and her purple eyes looked at Fisher in front of her motionlessly, reflecting his figure, waiting for his answer.

But at this moment, the sound of dismissal and thanks had awakened Alicia who was asleep next to her, she rubbed her eyes, sat up with Emhart, who had an extremely serious expression but did not say a word, and asked Renee and Fisher dimly,

"Big brother, big sister, is it over? I'm sorry. I'm too sleepy so. Whew"

Renee didn't respond to Alicia's words behind her, just looked straight at Fisher in front of her, and Emhart also looked at Fisher, but unlike Renee, he just pursed his lips and raised his eyes to signal that Alicia, who couldn't see Fisher, to keep silent for the time being, not to interrupt their conversation.

Faced with Renee's proposal, Fisher was moved but hesitated.

At this moment, it is not a ridiculous reason to worry that taking those acquaintances with you will quarrel with each other.

The so-called intention is because the difficulties faced in front of us are indeed beyond imagination, and even all the gods, including Renee, feel that there is little hope when they get together, so at this time, there is a way to escape the disaster, which can be said to be hopeful.

So, what about hesitation?

He was just not sure if such an option was appropriate.

It means that they are going to throw away everything they see now.

Nari, the Western Continent, the Northern Continent, the Southern Continent

All life, all civilization and all stories will be abandoned.

The place they were going to was outside the spirit realm, which was vast, and there might be a place similar to it, which was the home of the transferred.

But it can be dangerous too, because the invaders are from outside the world

The surrounding audience and the actors on stage have dispersed, but the story of "Revenge" does not seem to be over, but it is Fisher's turn to play the prince and he will make the choice.

Asking for votes, tips, and support is very important to me!

Thank you very much for your support!
