In the icy courtroom, on the large desk where the gavel and documents were stacked in the past, there were hot meals.
And I, like my comrades, was hurrying to enjoy physical pleasures with Eliza.
Well, don't think about it, it's just eating, can you forgive the poor old bones who haven't enjoyed the taste for more than a hundred years
There are not many dishes, such as sausages, butter bread, fruit salad, and vegetable soup. The taste is not as good as the palace food in memory. It is obviously the work of the additional restaurant. However, for a hungry ghost who has not eaten in a hundred years, Even a stone-hard brown bread is a court delicacy.
"Cough cough!" I ate too quickly and accidentally got stuck. I hurriedly covered my neck and slapped the table hard, beckoning Eliza to save her life.
"You're still like a child when you're so old. Oh, you're really just a child now, so you don't have anything else to say." Eliza patted me on the back while pouring tea for me who accidentally choked.
"Cough... I was almost killed by a cucumber. If I die from cucumber slices, everyone will die of laughter."
"Can the dead die again?"
"Of course, how can I count the final boss if I don't die for dozens of times, others don't know, it's not difficult for me to die more than a dozen times."
"Hmph, die early and reincarnate early. After eating, let's go on the road soon."
"Hey, even death row prisoners have their last feast. It's too early to collect the bowls now."
"Is there a rule for this?"
"Oh, not really, I forgot to add it. Remember to tell Lilith that it will be put forward at the next legislative session. Even if the judicial ruthless enforcers are still somewhat affectionate, let's give appropriate preferential treatment to death row inmates. I still need to talk about this human affection. of."
"You speak for yourself."
"This, I'm afraid it will be difficult, there is not enough time..."
"Then leave a note."
Looking at this unhappy girl, I knew that she would not agree no matter what her temperament came up with. In desperation, I could only really take out a pen and write a note and put it on the judge's department.
"Okay, okay, thank you for the hospitality." I nodded my head in satisfaction when I was full.
"It's just some cheap stuff in the tavern. Time is too rushed, it's too late." Eliza shook her head, but there was a bit of regret and hesitation in her eyes.
"Yes, it would be nice if you did it yourself."
"You know I can't cook, but if I do, you'll eat it all."
Indeed, Eliza, who is omnipotent in family affairs, is obviously a little off in this regard. Perhaps the taste is strange due to the blood of the devil. The food she cooks has a very strong taste. The beets are spicy, and the spicy vegetables are poisonous. Maybe not poison, but That tongue swollen like a sausage is worse than poisoning.
But at this time, I was inexplicably relieved. Lisa is a real all-rounder in housework, and her cooking skills are far superior to ordinary chefs, but in the end, I couldn't help but ask a question.
"Is it Eliza?"
"Well, Eliza, not Liza, that's just bluffing."
After a sigh of relief, I laughed too.
"I think Adam will figure it out soon too."
"So what? You didn't say that unrequited love will only last for 36 days. What has lasted for more than a hundred years is just evasion. What he needs is to break the reason for evasion and face the truth. Now he recognizes his current situation. Feelings, even if you figure it out in the future, you should only play stupid, don't men play stupid?"
Eliza said later, staring at me, and rereading it under "Men will pretend to be stupid", obviously she had something to say.
"Haha, Adam is really stupid instead of playing stupid." Well, a certain man was shot innocently and is trying to play stupid.
A woman keeps glaring...
"Okay... I'm sorry." Finally, unable to stand the condemning stare, a certain man bowed his head helplessly and apologized.
"What I need now is not an apology!"
"…I can only offer an apology."
Maybe it's not just Adam who is escaping. Thinking of everything I'm about to face, I'm really not confident enough. Even if I know that Eliza may just want a promise, I don't dare to give it at all.
"Hmph, fortunately, old lady, I didn't expect the stone to be enlightened, and I made preparations." The gritted teeth whispered, but I couldn't hear it.
"Okay, enough to eat and drink, it's time to hit the road."
"Considering the supreme glory of ascending the throne as a punishment, are you not afraid of blasphemy?"
"Execution? For me, becoming a god is worse than being executed."
Become a god
It sounds great, but it's actually not that great.
Since it is necessary to mention becoming a god, it is natural to talk about what a god is. In fact, there are many types of gods, and it is impossible to generalize at all. At least, the gods of order and the gods of chaos are completely two concepts.
Most of the gods of order follow a certain rule and concept, which is often their vocation and divine domain. Their existence itself is a collection of concepts, and most of them are the patron saint of a certain occupation and region, accepting their beliefs and strengthening themselves.
But this also limits their behavior. They must act according to their own rules and promote their own concepts. The most famous ones in this regard are the Mother Earth, the God of Light, and the Goddess of Magic. These three are absolutely powerful. It's incredible, but it has lost its ego, and it has all been transformed into a conceptual existence.
The Evil God of Chaos can also accept beliefs to strengthen themselves, but they are much freer. Seeing that Rose is doing such a fool in the underground world, no one jumped out and slapped her.
Even though this is a god's secret that no church will teach, to me, it's still just an appearance that deceives the world.
The most fundamental difference is that the gods of order follow Asteria, the goddess of order, who sleeps in the source of order, while the evil god of chaos must offer loyalty to Cynthia, the goddess of chaos who sleeps in the abyss of chaos.
Well, it seems that I accidentally threw out the big news. Now that we have said this, let's finish him.
Asteria sleeps at the source of order, the top of the pillar of the sky that leads the souls of the gods of faith and order to the sky, and every time the soul cannot provide more faith and re-enters reincarnation, the soul fragments of the faith order , it will become Asteria's nourishment, allowing it to wake up early.
The same is true for Cynthia. The only difference is that perhaps it is not the pillar of heaven but the Styx that guides the chaotic soul. The place where she sleeps is not the source of order but the abyss of chaos.
This is why the "holy war" is never-ending. Even if the two goddesses fell into a deep sleep, they still instinctively expect to wake up, and as long as the reincarnation lasts long enough, they will always wake up one day, and the more pious the order of belief , The soul of the chaotic self is the more nutritious supply, and the roar of the desperate souls of the warriors who died in battle is even more nutritious.
Then, when the two goddesses instinctively expect to be resurrected, the source of all life, the source of order, and the abyss of chaos do not want to stop the war, this recuperation, the cycle of holy war opened will continue, and as long as the war continues, one day, you will get enough After the sacrifices, Asteria and Cynthia will wake up from their eternal sleep, and the final battle of the gods will be staged, bringing the world back to the original era again.
In "history", this damn catastrophe did happen. After the sacrifice of the first six cataclysms, the two goddesses of creation finally woke up, and brought their subordinate gods and mortal races to fight. In the end, the ending and Like the original holy war, there was no winner. The two immortal goddesses once again slept forever, the gods fell, the mortal race was massacred, and the world of Ashe was destroyed. Perhaps, when civilization rises again, there will be another reincarnation.
This may be the ultimate secret that even the gods of the new age don't know, but for me, it's just the background information for the last expansion of the strategy book.
"Let me go, I know the Goddess of Creation is great, and it's really amazing that you have created so many races, but if you sisters can fight, you can go on your own, don't drag others into the water!" This is the first feeling I saw. , if it wasn't for the traversers, I'm afraid it would have been burnt at the stake long ago.
So, from the very beginning, I swayed between the order side and the chaos side (I don't think either side is a good thing), never agreeing that chaos is evil, order is the mainstream view of goodness, and even on the order side, I have no respect A source of order that exploits the roots of the world.
Well, after so much information has been revealed, then the problem has come out. Since Styx is not only chaotic, this battle will definitely be finished with everyone, so how to stop it.
Although it seems completely impossible, exploiting the loopholes in the rules is my specialty. It took me many years to think of it, and this first step is to ascend to the throne and strengthen the power of the law.
The current power of the law is considered to be the lower-level power of the source of order. Although I said that the power of the law should be used to replace the power of the Holy Light, in fact, the power of the law is still too fading, and it is impossible to practice in places without sacred artifact collections. The power of the law and the remnants of the artifact are destined to be limited. If you want to really spread it, there are others.
Therefore, like the Holy Light, there must be a God of Holy Light, even if it is just a divine power server, so that people who believe in the law at any time and place can obtain real power, then the power of the law can only be The possibility of truly replacing the Holy Light.
This is the premise of everything and the first and most fundamental step of my strategy...
Then, what is a god is clear, and the god of the law must have, then, how to become a god
In fact, the god of order is not difficult, except for those lucky ones who have obtained the divine power and vocation of the old gods, as long as they have developed new important concepts and vocations, and have reached the demigod realm (this is in order to be able to control the divine power and not be affected by the divine power) Support violence), you can declare to the world, hold high the throne, spread beliefs, and recruit believers. At least, this is how the God of Holy Light came. He should be the earliest priest of Holy Light.
Every new god of order will greatly strengthen the power of the order side. All those who tap new concepts to ascend to gods will often be recognized and rewarded by the source of order, and they will quickly become stronger.
This is also the reason why Kaya and the others regarded me as a future god, and this "future" should be to find that I haven't reached the demigod realm, and I, Roland the Sleepless, the demigod undead emperor of the past, has actually already The conditions for ascension have been reached.
But the interference of the true god on the mortal world is limited. If I ascend to the throne of God, I am afraid that, as the true god controlled by the source of order, I will not be able to jump out of the camp of war between the two sides, and my plan will be in vain. Now, I am again I found the loophole in this god system. At this time, I gathered all the chips, but it was time to start this crazy plan.
"I, the sleepless, the discoverer and user of the power of the law, in the holy city of Brimstone Mountain where the power of the law originated, I declare to the world that I will hold the throne high and perform the duties of the true God of the law!"
The source of order, which has been waiting for a long time, dropped a huge silver beam of light, and the power of order in it was so heavy that people suffocated. When the announcement of ascending the gods spread throughout the world, all beings stopped their footsteps and looked up reverently. God.
Adam, who had just come down from the operating table, looked at the orderly beam of light outside the window with shock, along with the others, and only whispered.
"Roland, you're really playing big enough, are you going to fool the gods?"
