Sword of Daybreaker

Heidi recalled carefully. It was the first time since knowing her ancestors in these years that she saw such a stunned and wonderful expression on the face of the other party-it seemed that she could see that her always serious and steady ancestor was so scared by herself It's a very interesting thing, but Heidi is not Rebecca who hasn't been in the house for three days after all, so she quickly suppressed the troublesome emotions in her heart, and brought the atmosphere back with a dry cough: "You... …"

"Wait, I'll stroke it... sort it out," Gawain waved his hand subconsciously, and then pressed his beating forehead, "Betty has been watering that egg these two days... That kid usually makes a little bit of someone else. Incomprehensible behavior, but she shouldn't be able to...Forget it, go call Betty, and I'll ask what's the situation. By the way, is there any change in that egg?"

"Nothing has changed," Heidi thought for a while, and she suddenly felt a little ashamed. In the days when her ancestors left, she devoted almost all of her energy to the work of the Government Affairs Office, and ignored the "housework" that happened under her nose. "This kind of subconscious negligence may not be a big deal in the eyes of the ancestors, but it is really a fault when you think about it. "There is a strict inspection system in the incubator room, and people check the dragon eggs three times every day. Betty’s weird behavior did not cause any impact..."

  Heidi hesitated for a long time, but after all, he still didn’t say the phrase “just a bit pickled recently”.

  Gawain's mouth trembled: "...Should I call Betty first, and then I will go to the incubator to see for myself."

Just a moment later, Betty, who was busy on the second floor, was called to Gawain by the summoning bell. The maid appeared in a good mood, because today was the day Gawain finally went home, but she also seemed a little at a loss-because she didn't understand. Why would she be called suddenly? After all, according to the rituals that was so easy to memorize, she had led the attendants and servants to the welcoming ceremony at the door before, and the next time she was called is theoretically an hour later.

Looking at Betty who was standing in front of him and didn't know what was happening, Gawain suddenly felt a little bit dumbfounded. He kept watching this girl grow up, watching her read the newspaper, learning spelling and calculation, and watching her change from nothing. The little kitchen maid who understands becomes the royal maid. This little girl from the countryside who was once thin and dull due to malnutrition has indeed grown up, but she is still not brilliant compared to those who stand at the same height in theory. , Even still clumsy, and sometimes unexpectedly because of a sudden brain jam-but even so, everyone here still likes her very much.

This is a simple and straightforward child. When she does anything, she probably has no long-term thinking. She just tries to do some things well. Although she has messed up some things, she has indeed made progress over the years. Up.

   "Betty," Gawain's face eased, with a faint smile, "I've heard something...Do you often visit that dragon egg in the hatchery recently?"

  Betty nodded, confessing with great joy.

   "And do you often water that egg...?" Gawain kept smiling, but his expression still became weird when he said this, "Even someone saw you chatting with that egg?"

Betty's expression finally changed a little. She did not respond to Gawain the first time, but showed a somewhat hesitant and distressed look. This surprised Gawain and Heidi on the side-but before Gawain asked why. , The maid lady seemed to have made up her mind. She nodded vigorously and said, "I'm pouring tea for Ms. Enya--and she hopes I can chat with her..."

While talking, the little maid thought hard in her heart: Although Ms. Enya once said not to say these things, the agreement at that time seemed to mention that it was not to say it until the master came back, now the master is back... …Should it be enough? Of course, this may also be a mistake in my memory, but there is no way, the master has already asked...

  This innocent girl didn't want to lie to Gawain.

  Gawain fell into a short-term astonishment again. After clarifying the information revealed in Betty’s words, he immediately realized that this matter was different from what he had imagined-how did Betty know the name Enya! ? She is chatting with Enya? !

  He suddenly got up from the sofa: "Let’s go to the incubation room, now!"

  ……

The sound of rapid footsteps came from the direction of the corridor. The sound of footsteps was accompanied by several clearly distinguishable breaths. The quiet and peaceful atmosphere in the incubation room was broken up. The light golden dome located in the center of the room made a very slight sound. He sighed and said to himself with a smile: "Have you come back... I thought I could spend a few more days free."

The door of the incubation room was pushed open from the outside, and the figures of Gawain, Hetty, and Betty appeared outside the door. They stared at the room where the light of rune was floating, and looked at the room standing in the center of the room. The giant dragon egg-the surface of the dragon egg halo wanders, the mysterious ancient runes appear from time to time, everything looks very normal, except for a newspaper floating in front of the dome, and it is facing the next page in front of everyone Open...

  Herty's eyes widened, Gawain's expression was a little stiff, and Betty happily stepped forward to say hello: "Ms. Enya! Are you reading the newspaper again?"

  The door to the incubation room was closed, and Gao Wen came to the golden dome with an unprecedented weird expression. Then a familiar gentle female voice came from inside the dome: "Long time no see, my friend."

   "So after we talked last time, are we friends?" Gawain said subconsciously.

While talking, he couldn't help but look up and down at this "dragon egg" a few times. "It" looked almost the same as when he saw it last time, but I don't know if it was an illusion, he could always smell it. The smell of Youruowu wafted from the lower part of the eggshell. The smell was fragrant, but it was not a supernatural smell, but more like the tea he was used to drinking.

"A heart-to-heart conversation is enough to establish a preliminary friendship, and in my long memory, the conversation with you should be the most heart-to-heart," in Gawain's mind, the voice in the golden dome has sounded again. "Why? Not willing to be friends with me?"

"This...not really," Gawain shook his head with a weird expression. He didn't know if he should smile at this moment. Numerous guesses rolled up and down in his heart, finally forming some vague answers. At the same time, his The mood also gradually settled, and tried to find the initiative in the words, "I just didn't expect to see you again in this situation...So, are you really Enya? The dragon gods Enya? "

"The dragon gods have died, and they died together with their crazy divinity, buried in the outer border of the sky, here is only Enya-Enya as a human nature," the golden dome said softly, "I do. I didn't expect to see you again in this situation. In fact...I didn't even expect that this bold plan could really be realized."

  Divinity...Humanity...Bold plans...

Gawain suddenly had some enlightenment in his heart. His eyes were deep, staring at the golden dome like a bottomless pool: "So, the God-killing war that took place in Tarrond was your plan. You use this method to kill the divinity that is about to be completely out of control, and let your humanity part survive in this form..."

"I made the biggest adventure I have ever consciously made, but this is not my most primitive plan-in the most primitive plan, I did not intend to let myself survive," Enya said flatly, "I have been I knew the children’s thoughts a long time ago...Although they suppressed their thoughts and language to the utmost, those thoughts rippled in the deepest part of their thoughts, just like the uncontrollable brilliance in the eyes of children when they are ready to move. Have you ever kept it from an experienced mother? I know that this day will eventually come... In fact, I myself have been looking forward to it...

"But I can't defy my own rules and can't actively loosen the chain, so the only thing I can do is to leave some gaps for them in a very narrow interval, or ignore certain things. So if this is a The'plan', in fact, is mainly the plan of the dragons. The thing I do most in this plan... is to do nothing in most cases."

  Gao Wen frowned slightly, thinking while listening, and couldn’t help saying: “But you still didn’t say how you survived... You just said that in the most primitive plan, you didn’t intend to survive.”

   "I should thank you," Enya let out a chuckle, with a sincere gratitude in her tone, "The things you told me brought me a lot of inspiration."

   "What did I tell you?" Gao Wen was taken aback, and then reacted, "You mean the upper narrator...there is also the **** of nature?"

"There have been many civilizations in this world, there have been countless mortal kingdoms, and countless mortal heroes. They may have unruly characters, or thoughts that make the gods look at them, or They have talent and courage beyond theory, and these people have various reactions when facing the gods, some are in awe, some disdain, some hate... But no matter which kind, they are different from you. "," Enya said unhurriedly, the topic seemed to be far away, but what was said was thought-provoking, "Yes, you are different. When you face the gods, you neither awe nor flinch, even There is no likes or dislikes-you don't think of God as God at all, your perspective is higher than that.

  "You see God as a simple ‘phenomena’ or even an ‘object’. You calmly want to find the logic behind this phenomenon. You take it for granted, as if you are trying to solve a formula with a clear answer.

  "Based on this perspective, you have introduced a variable that has never appeared before in mortal thoughts. This variable will guide mortals to look at divinity and humanity objectively, quantify and analyze them.

  "In our last conversation, I...borrowed this variable a little bit, borrowed your perspective on the problem and the effects that this perspective can produce, so I gained the ability to accurately cut my own divinity and humanity.

   "I'm sorry, I didn't get your consent in advance, and I didn't explain this to you afterwards, because I am worried that this will lead to unexpected changes in the situation. I hope you don't think this is a deception and offense."

After listening to Enya's confession, Gao Wen suddenly felt more deeply about the "beyond the mundane" side of the gods. These existences that originate from imagination and transcend imagination can actually achieve such a thing-to obtain a new "thought angle" in verbal conversation, and turn this "thinking angle" into their own controllable ability... this is The so-called ultimate utopian power?

His thoughts were ups and downs, but his face didn’t show it. He just smiled casually and said, “You don’t have to apologize. Now it seems that this has led to a good result, so I don’t mind—it’s just that I’m a little curious. This ability to "cut" divinity and humanity...what is the principle?"

The Golden Dome fell silent, and only a few seconds later broke the silence with helplessness: "Such a strong curiosity... It is really a question you will ask. But unfortunately, I can't explain it to you, and even if I can explain it, This ability is also useless, after all, not all gods have lived for more than a million years, and not all gods have undergone a great fusion.

"My'cutting' of myself is based on my own special state, because the'gods' themselves are a concept of'stitching', and those gods who have not been stitched...except for having experienced a'death' like the upper narrator ', outside of the situation where divinity and humanity are already split, it's best not to rashly try to'cut', and to choose a more gradual and safe method."

   "What will happen to rash cutting?" Gawain asked subconsciously.

   "...cut myself to death."

   Gawain opened his mouth, slightly embarrassed: "That sounds serious."

Then he considered it for a while, and couldn't help asking: "Then you have now returned to this world in the form of'humanity'... What about Tarrond? Do you want to talk to them? You are now Pure human nature should not have a bad influence on them in theory."

The golden dome fell silent, and after thinking for a longer period of time than any previous silence, she finally spoke: "The mythical age of the dragon family is over. There is no need to let a past ghost entangle those dragons who finally gained freedom. . And considering the complexity of mortal hearts, even if I return to Tarrond's public eyes in the form of'humanity', it is difficult to guarantee that unexpected changes in thought will not be caused between them...for the time being, at least temporarily, Until the dragons are completely free from the shadows of the past and are ready for the new era, don't let them know about this.

"Of course, you can tell the news to a small number of dragons who are responsible for managing Tarrond affairs. After they know the truth, they should be able to better plan social development and avoid some potential dangers-and their sense of responsibility will allow them to keep secrets. In the matter of keeping secrets, the Dragons have always been trustworthy."

"I understand. Later I will find a chance to tell the upper level of Tarrond about you," Gawain nodded, and then couldn't help but glance at Enya's round form at the moment. He really couldn't help himself. Curiosity, "I still want to ask... why is this an egg?"

   "...Yes, why is it an egg? Actually, I didn't want to understand..."
