Chapter 1 What Do People Live?
"I didn't expect you to be smart enough to guess the meaning of this, yes, a qualified Okmoth bloodline must have a calm enough brain and careful thinking."
Earl Horn nodded, but there was no sign of approval on his indifferent face, and Iren was already used to his father's appearance, so he didn't care and asked directly, "I guess it's not just me who guessed it, right?" Father. ”
"Your eldest brother and second brother knew about it, but they didn't succeed. No, maybe Theodore had some chances, but he failed. ”
With some curiosity in his heart, Earl Horn asked calmly: "But they Willard asked directly, but Theodore carefully checked all the materials, and directly connected the truth with the sage, but it was the same as I did at the beginning." ”
"The mage represents the truth, and I have not forgotten it."
Yi Lun said calmly on his face, he guessed it anyway, didn't the process come with his mouth open?
"But father, are there a lot of philosopher's stones?"
"Of course not."
Earl Horn shook his head and said, "The refining of the Philosopher's Stone is very troublesome, it is the soul and flesh as the element, the blood of elements and truth, the highest achievement of human alchemy. ”
"In other words, the need for life?"
Elen's eyes flashed slightly, and he said vaguely.
Count Horn shook his head and said, "Although slaughtering many lives can refine the Philosopher's Stone, it will gradually mad the user's spirit, and the best quality is the Philosopher's Stone refined from the plane." ”
"You can also use the Philosopher's Stone as the blood of the world."
"Relying solely on the lives of ordinary people, the amount required is too large, and this level will definitely cause the Church of the Gods to hunt down, except for the believers of demons, no one usually does this. Therefore, the Philosopher's Stone is generally refined from a plane, that is, a small world. ”
"And it must be a plane of elemental equilibrium, so the philosopher's stone is very rare, but the philosopher's stone refined by this method has a better effect, but the stock in the family is not much, so it needs to be screened to a certain extent."
Earl Horn, though aloof, explained patiently.
He looked at Yi Lun, who was a little eager to try, and said calmly: "I know you guessed something, but I want to tell you that different ways of advancing do not represent the ultimate future. Just because you use rituals to advance doesn't mean you won't become a fourth rank in the future. ”
"Actually, it was my brother who used the Philosopher's Stone to become the fourth rank, not me, but I still killed him."
"I don't care about that, so I didn't choose the way that was once directly chosen by the elders, but let you choose for yourself."
Looking at the tone of Earl Horn eating a loaf of bread for lunch, Iren was a little speechless, should he say domineering? Or is it strong enough?
Earl Horn pondered for a moment, and then said, "And using the Philosopher's Stone to advance, you may not be qualified. ”
"Perception of the world?"
"To be precise, it's the idea of your own existence. The previous Count of Ocmos, my fourth brother, it was not for nothing that he was chosen as the successor, he had a firm belief early on, he believed that his sword could cut everything, he believed that he was right, and this belief whether he was right or wrong, but it allowed him to survive the ceremony. ”
Earl Horn asked calmly, "And you?" Are you sure you know your path in life? Are you sure you won't be lost by anything? ”
Yi Lun complained silently in his heart, of course I understand, I want to be a strong salted fish in the future.
But he also knows that advancement is not a joke, and people's hearts are complex, and even he himself may not be able to recognize his own heart.
Even, it's because it's your own heart that you can't see clearly.
So when Earl Horn asked this, he also had some hesitation about himself, and he began to look into his own heart, and began to seriously think about what he had experienced and the impact on him.
Seeing that he was silent, Earl Horn was not impatient, but just picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Seeing that Iren sometimes frowned, sometimes his brows stretched, Earl Horn did not speak again, and just looked at his third son calmly.
And Eren seriously examines himself in his heart.
The sudden awakening of the memory brings the confusion......
Trapped by demons, the resentment and appetite that breeds......
Traveling back in time, the anger after seeing the truth about Deen Town......
Traveling through the future, the wonder and freshness in my heart, and the pity for the second life......
seems to be calm and makes good use of his ability to attack Count Wim directly, although there is a proper reason, but there is a faint fierceness in his heart.
Ignorance, anger, pity, confusion...... Originally, he was not hypocritical, and Yi Lun, who was at peace when he came, suddenly found that he had accumulated so much in his heart.
He didn't want to pay attention to Theodore and Willard, he didn't want to deal with this matter in advance, was it really just that the truth would automatically appear in front of him?
After examining his own heart, Eren felt that it was not only because of this, but also because he was confused about his future, and a lazy mentality.
Moreover, the experience of Deen Town has also accumulated unimaginable ferocity in his heart, making him have a mentality of controlling everything when he uses his time ability.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt like a mess inside her.
But this is actually not a big problem, his spirit seems to be split into two halves at this time, half is all kinds of chaotic emotions, and the other half is Eren who is indifferent and stares at everything.
Iren has always felt that he is a very sober person, even to the point of a little indifference, he knows what is important and what is insignificant, but this indifference is also a kind of self-indifference.
In his previous life, he graduated from the history department, which did not prevent him from becoming a magician, because he knew that he had this talent, and even if he gave up those promising jobs, it would not hinder his life, and it would make him very happy.
And after awakening his memory in this life, the thoughts about his family in his previous life and the fear of demons are unimportant things in his eyes and need to be solved, so he suppresses the thoughts of his parents in his previous life, and transforms the fear of demons into an appetite for demons.
Pity for the commoners of this world, for the future incarnation, for the Credot Phasli who assassinated him, and thus did not interfere with any of his decisions.
So after sorting out these chaotic emotions one by one.
He knew what he had to figure out, and that was how he was going to exist in the world. Why does he exist in this world?
This question is very philosophical, if someone usually asks Yi Lun like this, he doesn't even bother to answer, Lao Tzu wants to live if he wants to live, what reason do you want?
But now that he wants to be promoted, Iren has to figure this out.
