I was regarded as a demon god by a witch

Chapter 229 The Biggest Secret!Chitose fire!
The man in the bronze mask sitting on the stone chair said: "I know that in your eyes, the thousand-year-old fire that uses dead bodies as firewood is very evil. For people of your time, it seems to be completely different from the world you live in. world of barbarians."

"But you have to remember that it was the original Chitose fire nearly 3000 years ago."

He stretched out his palm to Ivita, and the most primitive thousand-year-old fire appeared in his hand, which was the most primitive and most evil thousand-year-old fire.

When Ivita saw this primordial thousand-year-old fire, he immediately felt a sense of desolation, simplicity, and evil.

The man in the bronze mask said: "As the most powerful regional independent law, the thousand-year-old fire has to be paid for at the risk of extinguishing it every once in a while. That's because the biggest secret of the thousand-year-old fire lies here."

"What I have in my hand is the earliest thousand-year-old fire. It was the time when humans were closest to beasts. It is the thousand-year-old fire that you saw in the murals when humans were in the tribal monarchy period."

Ivita seemed to understand a little bit, but the Hearthstone Witch beside him was confused.

The man in the bronze mask said: "Ambrose during the tribal monarchy period was essentially a large primitive tribal country composed of five tribes. At that time, the firewood for maintaining the thousand-year-old fire was...human beings themselves, that is, the people in the tribe. captives and slaves."

"But at that time, many nobles from the five major tribes would voluntarily throw themselves into the flames, and there was even a custom of using a thousand-year-old fire as a funeral."

"At that time, human life was not as valuable as it is now. The main concern of human beings is how to survive under the threat of the children of the forest and natural disasters. It is an honor to sacrifice for the tribe."

The man in the bronze mask said: "It changed later. The inequality of wealth quickly made the people of the five major tribes not satisfied with the original military democratic system of tribal countries. The position of power, so the slave city-state replaced the tribalism of the original Ambrose humans."

"The Ambrose people at that time began to formulate laws to define what is a country, who is a slave owner, and who is a slave."

"Thus, the people who lit the Thousand-year-old fire at that time changed from captives and a few nobles to slaves. The slave owners began to regard throwing themselves into the Thousand-year-old fire as pure suicide, and refused to fulfill their obligations. Their responsibility was transferred to the the slaves."

The thousand-year-old fire in the palm of the bronze-masked man changed again, turning into the light red thousand-year-old fire that Iveta had seen before, and the evil aura weakened a lot.

While Evita and the Hearthstone Witch listened carefully, the bronze masked man continued: "Later, that unprecedentedly powerful civilization came. The ancient civilization established a republic and an empire in this land, although Ambrose For the ancient civilization, it is just a small corner."

"However, after the arrival of the ancient civilization, it brought about the slave democracy system, which replaced the authoritarian slave centralization system. Later, the ancient civilization began to use the debt slavery system, which gradually increased the personal freedom of the slaves and gave them the most important possibility. Use money to buy the right to freedom. In this process, the blood left by the gladiators is used to ignite the thousand-year-old fire, which is why ancient civilizations are so obsessed with building magnificent arenas."

The bronze mask said: "But unlike all the previous Ambrose native regimes, the thousand-year-old fire is too weak for the ancient civilization. Therefore, the ancient civilization treats the affairs of the thousand-year-old fire more as a plaything, a kind of cultural customs."

The color of the thousand-year-old fire in the hands of the bronze masked man became lighter, and the evil aura almost disappeared, turning into a savage but powerful feeling.

The man in the bronze mask said: "Then is the most important thing. When the last thousand-year-old fire was about to go out, 1000 years ago, the human civilization of Ambrose changed again, and the feudal serfdom replaced the ancient civilization. Slave democracy in Borås, enfeoffment replacing central and provincial systems."

"Countrysides and manors replaced the cities and ports of the ancient civilizations."

"But because of the decline of the ancient civilization, the entire human world has undergone serious retrogression, and most areas have entered some institutions that are similar to anarchy or the remains of the ancient civilization, so Ambrose only changed the system. The establishment of feudal serfdom took 300 years."

"Then, the Chitose Fire fell into a continuous decline that lasted for 300 years. After 300 years, it was almost extinguished. Until 400 years ago, a igniter named [Alcusi] brought his wife [Anna] to the Here, after going through various difficulties, meeting the conditions for opening the bronze door, and obtaining the secret of the Thousand-year-old Fire, he found a way to re-ignite the Thousand-year-old Fire."

The flame in the bronze masked man's hand has turned into a color similar to that of ordinary flames.

Ivita immediately became familiar with the flame.

Yes, this is the thousand-year-old fire that I am familiar with, the fire of the law that has the noble characteristics that represent human civilization.

The man in the bronze mask said: "This should be the Chitose Fire you are familiar with."

"The thousand-year-old fire is the fire of human civilization, so whenever there is a huge change in human civilization, the characteristics of the thousand-year-old fire itself will also change."

"The firewood needed for the Chitose Fire is also different."

"Alcusi and Anna discovered that it is no longer necessary to light the thousand-year-old fire with living people, not slaves, captives, and gladiators, but people who need people to bury the serfs in intact tombs and return their souls to their hometowns, so the thousand-year-old fire At that time, [Alcusi] and [Anna] believed that the thousand-year-old fire had reached its extreme, and feudal serfdom was the truth of the universe, the ultimate change of society, and the end of the system.”

"The result is that less than 200 years after their death, Ambrose's social system has changed again. The ghosts of the ancient civilization have been revived and spread with the Pope and the three major republics on the peninsula. Boras is rooted again."

"The cities and towns of Ambrose rose."

"The emergence of commercial cities and commercial towns, and even two huge serf rebellions."

"The result is that the changes in human civilization in Ambrose have caused the Thousand Year Fire to change again."

"The firewood needed for the Thousand Year Fire has changed, but the Ambrose people outside don't know about it, so the Thousand Year Fire is about to go out."

Evita and the Hearthstone Witch were amazed.

They didn't expect that the biggest secret of Chitose Fire was this.

The reason why the thousand-year-old fire is about to go out now is because of the war between Ambrose's urban faction and the noble faction, and because Ambrose's civilization has once again undergone drastic changes.

Evita was puzzled. "But if this is the case, why did the great changes in social civilization last time, when feudal slavery replaced slave democracy in a unified country, it took 300 years for the thousand-year-old fire to decline before it was in danger of being extinguished, but this time it was only less than a hundred years old. There is a risk of extinction.”

The bronze mask said: "There are two main reasons for this. And you have encountered both of these reasons, and you have met the protagonist of these two reasons."

"First, the wife of the previous generation of fire igniters seems to have developed an improved law of the sea of ​​red cedars that can counter the thousand-year-old fire. This hastened the decline of the thousand-year-old fire."

"Second, 200 years ago, a demon who claimed to be [us] descended on Ambrose. Although the Thousand Year Fire suppressed that demon, it consumed almost all of the reserve flames."

"That incident left a very obvious consequence, that is, Ambrose's Elland, who was kingless and landless, died in the war against the remnants of the Children of the Forest, and even lost the Broken Steel Sword. That's why the steel sword fell into your hands."

Evita nodded, and everything was right.

Therefore, the thousand-year-old fire is not evil at all, because the thousand-year-old fire of each era represents the epitome of human civilization in that era.

The problem is never the thousand-year-old fire, but the people who use the eyes of this era to demand the human civilization of the previous era.

So, now Chitose Fire needs new firewood.

Just don't know what it is.

Ivita thought of the demon who called himself "us", and he felt a little familiar. "Is the demon who claims to be us the Omega demon? If you say I have encountered it, then I have only encountered two demons—it and the Hugo demon."

The man in the bronze mask said, "Impossible."

"There's never been an Omega Demon."

"If it said its name like that, then it must be lying to you. But then again, isn't it standing by your side all the time? You can just ask it yourself."

Ivita and the Hearthstone Witch were taken aback. They looked around but couldn't find anyone other than the fourth one.

what's the situation?
Ivita saw that the bronze mask did not speak, and the Hearthstone Witch was also surprised. He suddenly thought of something that Milani and Frankska had mentioned when they communicated.

It was after Hu Ge's downfall that his mother, who was possessed by a demon, suddenly disappeared from the ancestors in the cemetery, as if she had never been there.

If the woman who once smiled at herself and wanted to go in one direction by herself disappeared from the cemetery, where would she go? ?
Ivita frowned, and said to the Hearthstone Witch, "Has your ability to exorcise demons improved recently?"

The Hearthstone Witch was also obviously taken aback. She said to Evita, "Your Majesty, why don't we go to a decent church?!"

The bronze mask opened. "So you don't know, it has been following you. Evita."

"I thought you knew it, because it was very afraid of you and followed you all the time, but it didn't dare to get too close."

"200 years ago, the demon that suddenly came to Ambrose also brought about a problem. It was hunted down by a force called [Black Rat Plague]. Later, Ambrose was The leader of the cemetery sealed the plague at the cost of his life, and put the plague in a family that voluntarily dedicated himself. The cemetery declined at that time."

"And the plague will be sealed by the blood and righteousness passed down from generation to generation in that family."

"Unless, a generation of cowards from that family broke the seal."

Evita looked strange.

He thought of the sick child that Knight Gaslot had always carried with him.

Therefore, Cavalier Gaslot never told himself the truth. His friend who joined the Crusaders might have deserted on the battlefield, causing their family's blood seal to lose its effectiveness.
