The Trickster's Ninth Episode

Mr. Tatsuya Amano is a man of the Showa era!

After explaining this question, Tatsuya Amano took a sip of coffee.

Ren Amamiya narrowed her eyes. Tatsuya Amano said just now that he can ask questions until the coffee is finished.

That being the case, Ren Yugong didn't bother with the previous issues, no matter what information she heard, she would save it for later analysis.

"You said your sword was pointed at me twice, what exactly do you mean?"

"Didn't you say it just now? I have a share of your amnesia. Although I was only responsible for helping in the fight, it was the second time I stood in front of you." Tatsuya Amano recalled the taste of coffee, feeling comfortable Said. "As for the first time..."

"You should be able to guess it yourself, it's the second reincarnation, when you dragged me into this world."

"Although I don't know if you remember, but let me tell you in detail. When I fought against Nyarlathotep, I failed for the first time, and then with the help of Philemon's power, I opened up a parallel space. Erasing the memories of his companions and causing space-time differences, he defeated Nyarlathotep the second time."

"The first world is called the sinful side by you; the second saved world is called the punished side by you; and I am the sinful side."

"Because what happened on the side of the sin has never happened on the side of the punishment, so we can defeat Nyarlathotep. And as a person who has not given up the memory of the side of the crime, if I stay in the world of the side of the punishment, I will become the world of the side of the sin." The existence of evidence has caused the punishment-side world to move closer to the crime-side world, and let us defeat Nyarlathotep’s salvation, which falls short.”

Hearing this, Yu Gonglian answered: "So you returned to the destroyed sin side world alone, and decided to never set foot on the punishment side, right?"

"Yes." Amano Tatsuya nodded, looking at Ren Amamiya meaningfully.

"So you know how I felt when I knew a 17-year-old kid pulled me over?!"

"..." Yu Gonglian took a deep breath, he didn't know what it was like, but he could probably guess some.

With the return of the guilty side, the traces of world destruction reappeared on the punished side, and Nyarlathotep woke up. Past efforts fell short, and even brought new crises.

In such a situation, as the former savior, it is obvious what the sinful Zhou Fang Tatsuya will do.

Kill the one who merged the world and let the world split again.

"Then what happened next?" Yu Gonglian continued to ask.

"Later, there was a fight afterwards." Tatsuya Amano changed his solemn tone before, and returned to the casual look at the beginning. "I had a fight, and then I heard a young kid talking loudly, saying a lot of things I couldn't understand. Anyway, in the end, he said that he wanted to rebel against the gods. It's too secondary, it's unreasonable, so of course, those nonsense I I don’t believe it. Would you believe it instead?”

"I don't believe it." Yu Gonglian replied flatly.

"Look, it's a normal reaction." Tatsuya Amano shrugged.

"Then the underage kid told me a lot about the reality of the world, the nature of the gods, and his plans. Then he took me to a small village called Yashigami Inaba to find a man named Naruto The person in Shangyu, and later found a man named Kirijo Mizuru from nowhere. I have to say that that little devil is really good at talking, and more and more people are moved by him, and his companions are getting more and more A lot. But that's just cheating young people, and I don't want to listen to his nonsense."

"After all, no matter how nice it sounds, the risk of this matter is there. The essence of this matter is lack of people, meddling in other people's affairs, and failure is irreversible. A group of brats are going crazy and betting the whole world. joke?"

"Then that kid came to me with Maiye...Maiya said she wanted to join..."

When Tatsuya Amano said this, his expression was complicated, and he took a big sip of coffee.

"At that time, I really wanted to hack you to death."

"Understandable." Yu Gonglian listened quietly, and chuckled slightly when she heard this.

"You seem to be in a bad mood right now, I'd better ask something else." Yu Gonglian changed the subject with a smile. "This is the second time you have come here, so how many times is it now?"

"Ninth time."

Sure enough, it was nine times.A guess in Ren Yugong's heart was finally confirmed, which means that he has figured out all the components of this world so far.

"The second time you drew your sword against me is the eighth reincarnation, right?"

"That's right." Tatsuya Amano nodded and answered simply.

So I really lost the memory in the eighth reincarnation.

"I have met many people so far, and they don't want me to recover my memory. Why do you seem not worried about my recovery?" Yu Gonglian continued to ask.

"This question... seems to be endless in three sentences." Tatsuya Amano thought for a while. "But I can also say a few words to you casually."

"Because I think it's not so easy for you, a cunning kid like a ghost, to lose your memory so easily."

"A person who really loses his memory, how can he know so many things like you do now? Maybe you fooled all of us again. I'm too lazy to play this game with you. This is one of the reasons." Tatsuya Amano waved He waved his hand, took a sip of coffee, and said very casually. "The other reasons are too complicated, so let's skip them."

Ren Amamiya kept paying attention to the amount of coffee remaining in Tatsuya Amano's cup. At the end of the last sip just now, there was very little coffee in the cup.

Then, maybe the next question will be the last one.

Chapter 160 Three Lament of the Madman

One last question...

There are still many things I want to ask. The man in front of me has witnessed all the way from the second reincarnation. He still wants to ask many, many things, about the digital world, about Saiki Kusuo, about his memory...

But if this is the last question, then there is only one thing that Amamiya Ren is most concerned about now.

"..." Yu Gonglian took a deep breath and made enough mental preparations.

After the initial reincarnation achieved a perfect ending, Ren Amamiya can enjoy her life and live her own life with peace of mind.In the future, even if those gods come out to make troubles on a whim, the next guest in the velvet room will solve it.

Because of his own selfishness, he merged the world, reset the cause and effect, and plunged the world into a crisis of destruction.Tatsuya Amano is right, middle school two is ridiculous and nonsensical!

... hubris.

"Can you tell me, what is the ending of the second reincarnation?"

Whether her own arrogance will be the beginning of a tragedy is what Yu Gonglian is most concerned about.

"The second ending..." Tatsuya Amano glanced at the coffee cup in front of him. "Hmph! It will really take advantage. This is not something that can be explained clearly in three sentences!"

"But this matter is special, so let me tell you about it." Tatsuya Amano showed nostalgia on his face.

"..." seemed to be thinking about the sentence and wording, Tatsuya Amano was silent for a long time after he finished his last sentence.

"We defeated the gods."

Tatsuya Amano said so.

"But it's a pity that the gods cannot be truly killed. I don't know how much you remember, the gods are actually ancient life forms without form that existed at the beginning of the earth. Their essence is [power], And the [cognition] of the living beings endowed them with the [form of power], and since then, they have been called gods."

"[Power] itself is irrelevant, but the [cognition] of living beings will not be shaken. Even if we defeat the gods, as long as human beings are still there, life with advanced intelligence is still there, and things that can be named after [civilization] are still there, [Cognition] will not disappear, there will be [Power] that will recover, or simply be replaced by another [Power].”

"But the gods built by [cognition] will always be there. To the gods, failure and death are nothing more than sleep."

"We have achieved at least a hundred years of stability for this world, but... you are not satisfied." Tatsuya Amano said lightly, staring into Ren Amamiya's eyes.

"Am... am I not satisfied?" Ren Amamiya repeated this sentence in a daze, inexplicably, a little laughing.

"The stability of a hundred years has already exceeded our lifetime. We don't have to worry about the things after that. It is a miracle to suppress the gods for a hundred years with human power. It is not an exaggeration to call it a great achievement." Tatsuya Amano Said meaningfully. "But you think it's not enough."

"So you robbed the authority of the gods."

"I don't know exactly how you did it. But I still remember your explanation at that time. The [authority] of the gods is composed of the [cognition] of human beings. Leaving this layer aside, the so-called gods are just the power of [power] It’s just a provider, since that’s the case, other people with [Power] can take their place. Although it’s not easy to do this, you have a way.”

"But as you plunder more and more power, the power of [cognition] will gradually increase on you. Darkness is darkness, desire is desire, and ugliness is ugliness. The gods in human hearts have never changed, and they have the authority of righteous gods. A guy who is a god should look like a righteous god; a guy who has the authority of an evil god should look like an evil god."

"If you continue like this, you will lose yourself in the [cognition] of all human beings and become a [god]. During that time, you were in a state of chaotic consciousness for a long time, and you tried to rely on friends and partners, and even more Resist this [cognition] based on the [impression] of you, even to the point of being unscrupulous, but it still has little effect."

"Then the facts before us are obvious—human beings are immortal, and gods are immortal. Human beings create gods, and gods obey human wishes and feed back to human beings. The two complement each other and are indispensable. This is the truth of the world."

"What a ridiculous thing!"

"Those who defeated the gods for the sake of mankind, the ultimate enemy is all mankind. Human beings living in the security bestowed by the savior are using their power to turn the savior into evil gods."

Having said that, Tatsuya Amano drank the rest of the coffee in the cup in one gulp.

"This is the end of the second reincarnation."

After finishing speaking, Tatsuya Amano put down the coffee cup and turned his head to look at Ren Amamiya's expression with interest.

"..." Yu Gonglian took a deep breath with a complicated expression. "So, starting from the third time, other worlds will appear."

"Yes, after you determined that you could not maintain yourself from the [cognition] of all human beings, you got the second world card from Yu Narukami. Combined with the power of the two world cards, the world was restarted again, and , bringing other worlds in." Tatsuya Amano added what Ren Amamiya said.

"Okay, I've seen you, and I've finished my coffee. I should go and see you when I have time." Tatsuya Amano stood up and said in a lazy tone.

"..." And Yu Gonglian was still silent in the ending of the second reincarnation, silent and didn't know what to say.

"By the way, there is one last thing." Amano Tatsuya turned his head.

Hearing this, Yu Gonglian raised her head and looked at the other party.

"Alian, thank you." Amano Tatsuya suddenly laughed, changed his previous aloof appearance, and smiled gently.

"...What?" Ugonglian didn't react.

"Thank you." Tatsuya Amano repeated with a smile.

"I once turned swords against you and thought you were naive, ignorant, arrogant, and stupid. No one expected you to do what you are now, and no one can believe that you can do what you are now. Whether it is me or your others Companions, including your Phantom Thieves, no one believes that you can do this."

"Along the way, many people hope to be your strength and your pillar, but they never have expectations for what you are going to do. Because your goal is too far away, too unrealistic, and too ridiculous."

"But you did. You contradicted everyone who denied you, including me."

"This world is so beautiful that it never existed even in my dreams."

"So thank you, Alian. Thank you for persevering alone."

Tatsuya Amano patted Ren Amamiya on the shoulder.

"This is the real purpose of my coming here today."

"Also, you'd better be mentally prepared. There are many people who want to thank you."

"Who told you that you didn't give everyone a chance to thank you in the last reincarnation?"

Chapter 160 Four Deadline Celebration Party

Tatsuya Amano left.

And Yu Gonglian was completely dumbfounded.

He was still silent in the second reincarnation, because of his dissatisfaction, and because of his arrogance, he had to reset the timeline to get rid of the [cognition] of all human beings, and he felt guilty for this. and sadness.

As a result, Tatsuya Amano turned around and made a big reversal, blowing away all the self-blame and sadness in his heart.

But after calming down, Yu Gonglian still cared about what happened in the second reincarnation—because Yu Gongren robbed the authority of many gods, causing him to bear part of the [cognition] of all human beings, and almost lost self.

Fortunately, he put everything on himself back then, and reset the world in time, without causing any irreparable consequences.

Tatsuya Amano spoke two or three sentences easily, and Ren Amamiya listened to him so nervously that he died.

In conclusion, although the second reincarnation failed, it is not a bad ending.

It seems a little silly to be in the ninth reincarnation and worry about such things in the second.
