Spell Return: The Wheel of Time

Chapter 219 Reaching Cooperation
"In a distant country, a philosopher once put forward a hypothesis. If a ship constantly replaces its components while sailing, will it still be the same after all its parts have been replaced?"

Shen Yuanyi did not answer Kensuo's question directly, but changed the topic and talked about a famous philosophical paradox. His eyes when he looked at Kensuo were very calm, but there was something heart-stopping in them.

"This is originally a philosophical paradox about 'self-existence', but to me it has another meaning..."

"This world is like a ship whose parts have been replaced. There are people I know well here, you, Su Nuo, and them a thousand years later.

With my technique, I have a good chance of living in that era that I am familiar with, but... this doesn't make any sense to me! "

"Everything I am familiar with, family, friends... are all false! Even if I go to contact them again, the things in my memory can no longer come back. I am only getting acquainted with them for the second time, their names, appearance , souls are no different, but they are no longer the original 'ship' to me. "

When Shenyuan said this, he suddenly smiled: "Especially after realizing the nature of time and space, there may be infinite 'worlds', but the one and only one of them that is meaningful to me is ”

"Such a 'strange' world that has nothing to do with me. Even in this era, not even a single person I cherish exists..."

Shenyuan looked at Kensuo as if he was saying something ordinary: "What does their life and death have to do with me? I'm just a passerby."

Although Shenyuan Yi did not directly answer Kensuo's question, the latter already understood. At the same time, he also knew why he was the culprit that caused the other party to lose "everything" and enter a strange era.

To put it simply, 'Kensuo' caused all this, but it was not the existence of 'himself'. For Shenyuan Yi, even if he killed himself and lived to meet his old acquaintances again after a thousand years, it would have no meaning.

In this way, even if Shenyuanyi is willing to live a good life in this world, there will be a clear separation from the past memories in his heart. All people are "the same", but all things are no longer the same.

This is not the modern era, it is not an era when mortals have the means to destroy heaven and earth, and it is not an era when the magic world still cares about ordinary people.

But now there is a way for you to return to the world you once knew and belonged to you. Will you be willing? If there are some "obstacles" along the way, how determined can you be to clear them?
"everything."

In Shenyuanyi's past world, wasn't it true that people were cannibals in the peaceful era without spells? So what does all the beauty and prosperity have to do with the people at the bottom?
In this era where it was not a big deal for a noble to kill a commoner, the concept of Shenyuan Yi was so incompatible.

As long as they are a spellcaster, they have crushing power over ordinary people. They are aloof beings who can easily dominate their life and death.

If you hold the idea that "the same person in different worlds is also the same existence", then it would be even greater absurdity for Shenyuan Yi who has already touched time and space travel.

The rulers of this era are all 100% related to magic. The royal family, the nobles... they are all alternative magic families.

This is Shenyuan Yi’s answer. From his perspective, the magicians of this era can say that eight or nine out of ten people deserve to die. After all, this is the heyday of magic, and what is the most powerful weapon for mortals? Woolen cloth? At most, it's nothing more than an armored sword.

Those are the shackles formed by the thinking of the existence called "human". The worlds are similar, but they are macroscopic. If it is more subtle, there must be many differences. For example, the Kangsuo can determine that the trajectory of this time and space has been changed.

Even though the Fujiwara Masanobu and Igarashi he met were very gentle and approachable, that was because Kamogenichi was a powerful spellcaster that far surpassed them.

After all, looking at this situation from another angle is equivalent to a god destroying your world and then reappearing everything. It just abandons your existence. Everything in your memory is gone forever, and nothing is left. People know you and remember everything that was buried, but you are the only one who still remembers it all.

However, Shenyuanyi didn't have any hatred towards him, not only because he needed him, but also because the other person's perspective was different. Kensuo couldn't fully understand that detached perspective, but he could still try to agree with it.

Especially magicians from big families like Igarashi who do the dirty work. No matter whether the target is a magician or an ordinary person, the number of people who die at their hands will never be small.

All existences in this world, including the world itself, are alien to it, and rebuilding all the bonds is meaningless to it, because time and space are 'infinite' and close.

No one is innocent.

When he first arrived in this era, didn't he witness the scene where mortals were like animals in front of the magicians?

Of course, many real nobles did not kill any ordinary people with their own hands, but all their status, enjoyment, and everything else were based on the bones of countless people below them.

Kensuo thought about it for a moment. If it were him, maybe he wouldn't care about this, and would even find it more interesting. However, according to his observations of creatures like "people", like Shenyuan Yi, Thinking is also normal.

Honestly speaking, if we follow the modern rules of the sorcery world, most sorcerers of this era would probably be classified as cursers.

When a person goes against everyone else, is that person wrong or is the world wrong? For anyone, most of the time, the answer would be the former, but Shenyuan Yi is the latter.

He also knows that this is the limitation and evolution of the times, but it is the most difficult to deceive himself. This is one of the reasons why he answered like that to Kensuo. …

"I have no doubts. You should be mentally prepared for this. This is not a goal that can be accomplished overnight. Set two goals first."

"The first one, study your technique thoroughly, the second one..."

Kensuo's face was already filled with uncontrollable excitement. Just thinking about it made him look forward to everything to come!
"Become the ruler of the magic world in this era! Only in this way can we get all the help to explore the mystery of time!"

Kensuo is actually not complicated at all. He is just a standard chaotic person. Good and evil are meaningless to him. He is just pursuing the "interesting" direction.

But most of them are related to spells, such as the idea of ​​going to Ise Shrine to steal spells or even the Yata Mirror, as well as the idea of ​​incarnating into various identities to cause trouble in the future.

He just wanted to see what kind of beauty the miracle of the world of magic could burst out, and Shenyuan Yi, a stranger who traveled through time and space, brought him unprecedented scenery.

"There are other spellcasters. No, as long as they have enough depth and unique insights into the study of spells, we will let them be used by us."

He licked the corners of his lips: "We are doing a great undertaking that will be remembered by history. That is an area that only gods can touch, and we are about to gain this authority!"

----

Once the direction was agreed upon, a lot happened.

First of all, Kamogenichi joined the power of the Fujiwara family. As for why there was no other choice, the main reason was that the historical trajectory of the Fujiwara family was to become a powerful force in the future Heian era.

In the history of mortals, the Fujiwara family gradually controlled part of the royal family's rights through marriage with the imperial family. The second half of the Heian period can basically be said to be the history of the Fujiwara family, until it was later cleared by the Genpei family and the shogunate era began.

In the world of magic, although the Minamoto family and the Taira family are now relatively close to the Fujiwara family, these two families are from the royal family after all, and they still have many secret schemes against each other.

If Shenyuanyi had to choose one of these forces as a starting point, he would only choose the Fujiwara family. Firstly, the latter is already huge and can save him a lot of trouble. Secondly, established forces like the royal family always He has some kind of inexplicable arrogance, and he doesn't know what will happen if he comes into contact with her again.

Thinking of the old orange peels who hold power in the modern magic world, the royal family, the descendants of gods, the eternal lineage... It makes people feel sick. If it is worse than bad, my current impression of the Fujiwara family is better.

After Fujiwara Masanobu received the full support of his family, his right to speak has further improved. Now he can intervene in half of the Fujiwara family's magic matters.

As a result, Shenyuan Yi became a being worshiped by the Fujiwara family, and also received a lot of power. The Fujiwara family seemed to be very knowledgeable about this kind of thing, and they were not as stupid or arrogant as they imagined.

After confirming the strength of Kamogenichi, they quickly gave the former treatment that was beyond Igarashi's level. As for Kensou who joined them together, the spells he stole from Ise Shrine were indeed exciting.

But considering various problems, the Fujiwara family did not try to ask for it. Instead, Kensuo took the initiative to hand it over. Of course, this was conditional. As a price, he needed the Fujiwara family's absolutely secret spell.

Without much hesitation, the Fujiwara family agreed to the seemingly unbalanced exchange. Knowledge is not a physical thing, and mutual exchange will only benefit both parties. Especially since the two have already joined the Fujiwara family, let alone the exchange, it will be in vain. The Fujiwara family is also willing to hand over those 'dead things'.

The journey of exploring magic begins.

In the mansion prepared by the Fujiwara family for Shenyuan Yi, Kensuo, Su Nuo and others all moved here. With the help of the Fujiwara family's power, they obtained countless secret spells.

They may not be powerful spells, but there are some seemingly weak things like spells, and the rules behind them are sometimes very terrifying.

And Shenyuan Yi also began to teach Mizuno Shiina and Su Nuo spells. Yes, Su Nuo may also be a big help in Kensuo and his calculations. Shenyuan Yi also very much agrees with this. The latter Naturally, he is very aware of his achievements in spells.

As for the danger...as long as Su Nuo is still under his nose, it is impossible to make any waves, and it is even less possible to reappear the power of Yamata no Orochi.

To put it another way, even if Su Nuo gets that power again, he may not be unable to kill him again. Moreover, this is the era of peace, and Shenyuan Yi doesn't care at all. He has only one goal.

The wheel of history is rolling forward, but its trajectory has been completely deflected and headed towards the unknown direction.
