1. The connection between desire and inquiry

β€œ...... Hey, Verard. ”

Lilith only felt a little dizzy in her head, but it wasn't because she had done something to change history.

Because, should it be said that it was an accident? Or as expected, or rather, it was just a confirmation of what I had always suspected, and this saint, because of her unique temperament and appearance, and her almost omnipotent prayer, the saint who had sat in the position of the saint for ten years turned out to be ......

Asmo, to be precise, is now in the square, showing her ability to grant the wishes of others in front of all the cultists, and has received crazy applause and cheers from the cultists.

Ashmar had told him about her "past", and when he was investigating the slave trade, he was still a man, and he used a story that was "fake" at first to fool his questioning at that time.

At that time, his lies disguised him as a paladin with a cup of glasses, who, by luck or some other reason, made a deal with Loki and ended up becoming a demon. However, while this is really just a fabricated lie, at least the "relationship with the church" is certain.

Even if it is a lie, sometimes people will unconsciously approach the lie to the truth.

Later, when Asma began to appear as a woman, he had his own conjectures about this. After all, Asma looked so dazzling, even if she was just standing, she could attract the attention of everyone around her, she was so holy from the inside out, it seemed that it was impossible to have anything to do with the word "demon".

At that time, the first thing that came to my mind was the "Holy Maiden", but. When he asked Pandora, who was most likely to know about it, he was fooled by the black butterfly's ambiguous words and hairy-looking smile, and finally the matter was stopped.

Now think again. Asmo's unique temperament, appearance. And how she looked when she was fighting, the moves and methods she used, it seems that they can only be explained in one word.

"What is the name of the saint in the square?"

It's not something that needs to be confirmed, and if someone so unique can admit it, Lilith has been with Ashmill for so long.

"Well, I think it's called Ashmudeus, and it's so famous that I have a slight impression. ”

Villard said. "Like a saint who used to change once a year, I have no interest in writing it down at all. ”

"......" was another believer's wish fulfilled, because Lilith clearly saw that the believer's old body was once again rejuvenated, which looked like a ...... Marvel?

No, magic can do that, but Ashmill does it. It's whitewashed magic, so it's no surprise to get applause and praise. Ash mill from 100 years ago. Is it doing something like this?

But why did she become a demon, and moreover, even more than the other six demons, she avoided her past, what happened.

"Sister, are you interested in her?"

Verard looked a little angry, "Sister, there are some things I have to make clear, and this is also for your own good. The church is not as white and dirty as you might think. ”

"I know, it's not a question of interest. ”

Ink drips in ink. It will only be melted, but dripping on white paper. The ink will be magnified to the maximum. I don't like the church, and it's only because of Asmar that I get interested in it.

"Verard, is it true that as long as the chosen person can have a chance to realize his wish?"

"That's true, but the odds are a bit pitiful. "As far as the eye can see, the cultists have almost surrounded this place, and in this case, it is already a great luck to be able to squeeze to the front, let alone be chosen by the Holy Maiden and get the opportunity to fulfill her wish.

"Sister, are you going to fight for such a meaningless thing? You should know that this kind of ritual is actually whitewashed magic. ”

"It's just a matter of experience. Lilith said as she began to think about what she could do to get Ashmill to notice her.

I guess I'll only be taken away as a thug, so is it really a straight ball?

Ashmill, there's no reason not to notice.

......

The magic power that was directly cast over had an unexpected effect, and Ashmill's gaze quickly turned to Lilith, even through the thick human wall, Lilith could see that Ashmill was looking at her.

Most of the time, I wonder because I have found the source of the magic that suddenly passed through.

The square fell silent, or rather, at Asma's signal, the congregations quieted down, and the square, which had been ten times as noisy as the bazaar, became as quiet as an empty night.

These are just a gesture of Ashmo, nothing more. However, if it is possible to achieve such a point, will the trust of the believers, which is obviously excessive, and such appeal, not arouse the dissatisfaction of the church? Or is it that the church of a hundred years ago was completely centered on the saints?

So, why did the church of his time become muddy again, and even the existence of the saint was just a puppet, so that there was a "witch" like Alicia, who was born because of her incomparable love for the church, in order to sweep away the filth?

A hundred years of history, I don't know what happened.

"......" Do you have a headache? Very well, this is really something that you shouldn't know, as long as you grasp the point that touching the taboo will bring headaches, sometimes the headache is a kind of help to your judgment.

A fair history will not deliberately prevent yourself from having a headache just because you are aware of it.

"Excuse me, thank you. ”

Bearing the envious or jealous eyes of the surrounding cultists, Lilith struggled to push aside the crowd and walked towards the center of the square.

Villad mostly stayed where he was for fear of being discovered by the saint. But that's okay, now I just want to face Ashmill alone.

Asmill as a holy woman.

Because here. This is where the history of Asma is stored.

"Little sister, what are your wishes?"

Pure and unsullied blue eyes. He wasn't surprised by the magic he cast, and Asmill seemed to have given himself a chance to stand in the square by default.

Although all the eyes around him have always resided on him, what attracts him more than these is Asmar itself.

It is true that there is no difference between Asma at that point in time and now, but it is only limited to appearance and temperament, and people who are a little smarter can easily see that Asma is avoiding some topics. And now at this time, Asmar ......

There is no way to describe it. Because, it can almost be said that she is for the sake of the saint.

If you ask yourself the question "Why did you become a demon?", it will definitely not make sense, and you may be arrested as a suspicious person.

But it's not impossible, just change the form.

"I'm not talking about wishes. ”

Lilith shook her head. At this time, the square was quiet, and his voice was enough to reach the ears of every believer.

"I have a few questions for you, and I think they represent the voice of all our congregational hearts. ”

The rhetoric, which was not overly exaggerated, did not give Ashmar any excessive look: "Please speak." As long as I know, I can answer. ”

"The Holy Maiden is a messenger of God, I think. You are a saint who is loved by all of us, and the gods will surely reward you. Will you be able to stay so young?"

Meaningless nonsense, everyone knows that the saint will not grow in the period of time when she becomes a saint. Otherwise, the saint would not have been called a "messenger" of God.

"Well, as long as I can pray for everyone for a day, I can continue to maintain this posture. ”

Boos came from all around, mostly the cultists. I'm mocking myself for asking a useless question, or rather. Are they sorry or jealous that they have wasted a precious opportunity to fulfill their wishes?

There are wishes that can be fulfilled. But he chose to ask questions that he didn't necessarily get answers, and most of them are now considered stupid by most people.

But which side of the fool is it? You can rely on your own means to realize your own wishes, and what you lack is the "answer" that you disdain to get.

"So, can you help me foresee something?"

"Of course, but you can only know one thing, and that's not the same as asking questions. ”

In Asmo's opinion, I'm afraid that her problem at the beginning, she didn't intend to count it as a wish at all.

"Well, I'll just say it. ”

Lilith took a deep breath, for it was obvious that she knew what was going to happen to her next.

"Can you foresee your own future?"

...... Pain......

No, it wasn't painful anymore, it was like the hammer smashing the flesh and blood of her body little by little, and it almost made Lilith not stand still. Lilith, who had used all the means, could only barely maintain her standing posture.

Sure enough, although I already had a general premonition, the questions I asked were still taboo. In history, Ashmill eventually became a demon. The question she asked was no different from asking her why she would become a demon in the future.

You must endure it, if it's just this kind of Cheng dΓΉ's pain, there is still no way to stop yourself.

"This, that's what I want to know the most. Although the pain had spread throughout her body, Lilith's mind was extremely clear at this time, and she had abandoned all the parts of her body that she didn't need, and now, all she needed was her brain, eyes, and mouth.

"I really want to...... You can always be a saint. So, you can make a ...... Do you have your own foreknowledge? I really ...... Would love to know. ”

The brain, used to think, and the eyes are used to observe Asma's every move at the moment, taking in her eyes, movements, and every qiΔ“. Then, use your own words to dispel her doubts.

Asma, if you have any regrets, you can't know your past, you should be one of the higher ones.

A person who has concealed his past really can't fully believe it. So......

Speak up, what you know about the next outcome, and let yourself know what you should do next.

(Trouble, it seems that I recently won the lottery and started sneezing when I got home.) Feeling like you're going to have a fever. (To be continued)
