The witch thought I am a Demon God

The Great Witch of Hearthstone tried to find out the truth about the birth of [Thousand Years Fire] from the murals, but she looked at the murals on the dome and kept rubbing her eyes, but she could only see a blurry scene.

She thought she saw it. She thought she understood the mural before.

But she thought about it carefully and wanted to tell the story recorded in the mural, but found that she didn't know anything!

The old witch rubbed her eyes hard, and a tear squeezed out of the corner of her eye.

The tears solidified into a red beetle within three seconds.

The red beetle immediately opened its wings and flapped its wings to fly randomly in the air.

The Great Witch of Hearthstone immediately kept retreating and became frightened. "A complicated code-type protective spell was added to the mural."

"Not only can people who don't meet the conditions be forced to forget what they saw after seeing the murals, but it can also trigger the agency."

"Everyone, be careful! Don't touch that red beetle, it's a very powerful counter-spell!"

The red beetle flew past Ivita and the old witch and flew straight to Lolita's head.

Lolita screamed, then, terrified, stood still.

This happens to some people when they are particularly scared.

The more scared you are, the less you move.

Just when Lolita fell into despair, a cold light flashed in front of her eyes.

Ivita drew out the Fire Sword from her waist, and with a speed that no mortal could match, she struck the red beetle flying in the air with one strike.

‘Bang~’

The beetle's body exploded, emitting a crimson spiritual fire that spiraled up along the sword in the fire.

The sword body emitted a scorching red light due to the intense heat of the flames, but the sword body of the Fire Sword was not melted by the flame magic.

Because the Sword in Fire has been strengthened by blood magic, its melting point is different from that of ordinary metals.

Lolita was so shocked that she suddenly collapsed and sat on the ground.

"Thanks……"

"Thanks……"

The old witch looked happy, "Your Majesty, your fire sword mixed with dragon's blood is really useful. If it weren't for it, the beetle would be burned into liquid if it were touched by another weapon."

Ivita nodded.

The reason why the old witch ran away when she saw the beetle was because she had no tools to touch the beetle.

And he has a sword in fire.

Of course, it is already her nature to run away subconsciously when she encounters danger.

The Great Witch of Hearthstone sighed. "We have no way of knowing the content on this mural. There is a very powerful magic protecting the content on the mural."

"I really don't know what magic it is!"

"But maybe we can use the Fire Sword to dig out the flames embedded in the center of the dome... Anyway, the counterattack magic here is also fire magic."

While she was chattering, Iveta looked up at the mural, trying hard to see clearly what was on it.

Because he's really curious.

How was Chitose Fire born?

Why did the Chitose Society suddenly burst into flames in Ambrose in the past, and why did it suddenly go out now?

He casually gave the sword in the fire to the old witch, and then walked around the murals on the dome. For some reason, his eyes met the murals, making him dizzy, and he saw some strange and mysterious patterns, which seemed to be filled with water. Some kind of ingenious magic.

However, he saw nothing clearly.

Yvetta murmured. “Why would something like the law suddenly become extinguished one day?”

"The law sounds like a rule that won't change."

"But the Chitose Fire went out."

"Because even laws have levels." A cold voice appeared behind Ivita. "The Chitose Fire is a regionally independent law. Its characteristic is that it can suppress civilizations other than human civilization and maintain the space and resources for human survival. However, the Chitose Fire also has an annoying characteristic, that is, since it is a flame, after all It cannot escape the fate of being extinguished.”

"There are laws above the laws. Below the independent laws are regional-affiliated laws. Above the independent laws are pan-regional-level laws. And even higher are..."

"What those who pursue the law pursue is to obtain laws of a certain order of magnitude and finally synthesize a universal law!"

"However, I strongly doubt that there is no universal law and that the concept of universality is a false concept."

Iveta had only heard this voice once.

Ivita turned around and was shocked to find behind her a beautiful woman with a semi-illusory body, wearing a black wedding dress and a black veil.

This person is the Princess Alsace whom she met on [Re-walking the Path of Fire Snake Magic] before.

Why is she here!

Ivita looked at Lolita and the old witch and found that neither of them saw the eldest princess of Alsace.

Especially the old witch. She was asking Lolita to move a stone. Then she climbed on the stone and used the sword in the fire to try to cut the flames of the Chitose Fire from the mural.

The wizard apprentice on the side was still bound by the old witch's spell, but he didn't seem to see the eldest princess of Alsace.

Seeing Iveta's confusion, Princess Alsace couldn't help but laugh. "Boy, do you think this situation is strange?"

"When you can follow my magical path again, you can see my scene at that time. Why can't I use the same method to see your scene now."

"Time is relative."

"For you, I am a person from the past, unreal and illusory. But for me, you are just a person from the future. For me, you are also illusory and illusory. Isn’t it true?”

"Because you were too close to the flame of the Chitose Fire, and there happened to be a Chitose Fire flame in front of me. In addition, when I saw you a year ago, I saw a firebird in your eyes. I forcibly reversed that scene, dialyzed the magical knowledge contained in it, and learned Firebird Magic."

Princess Alsace said: "In this process, I am also following your path again."

Ivita was a little confused.

This is a time stuck BUG!

He didn't expect that he would be talking to a person who had been dead for many years.

In this magical world, time can no longer be used as the most authoritative benchmark.

Because this bug continues, which world is considered the main world?

Iveta said: "So, are you real now?"

The smile on Princess Alsace's face seemed to be the last touch of spring, which would only be revealed to those who were not a threat.

Then, like a rose on an iceberg, she said with a cold face: "It depends on how you define reality."

"I am just a person from the past to you, so if you think I am real, I am real."

“If you think I’m not real, I’m not real.”

"Then what I am saying now is all your fantasy. In other words, you are simply mentally ill..."

"Boy, your choice determines whether I am real or not. But what does it have to do with me? For me, it doesn't matter whether you are real or not, because you and I will only meet this once. Meet."

The eldest princess of Alsace said: "Because the probability of the two of us standing in front of two thousand-year-old fire is too low."

"Thousand-year-old fires will have mutual connections, and even this connection ignores the structure of time and space. This is something I only realized after meeting you."

"This may be because all Chitose Fire are actually one body. As a law, the structure of Chitose Fire transcends time and space."

"Every special situation discovered may lead to a major breakthrough in magic, so I want to thank you very much, kid."

"In exchange, I can tell you what kind of person can understand this mural."

Iveta felt his scalp tingle when he heard this. He felt that the problems he was dealing with now might be something that even witches of the old witch's level didn't understand.

He looked at the Great Witch of Hearthstone. The Great Witch of Hearthstone was still there holding the sword in fire, competing with the flames of the Thousand Years Fire embedded in the mural on the dome.

Ivita keenly discovered an important key. "Elder Princess, what you just said seems to be saying that the thousand-year-old fire in front of me will definitely go out. Otherwise, according to you, as long as I stand in front of this thousand-year-old fire every day, I can't rely on probability to do it again. Can you guess the current situation?"

It's probably like rolling dice.

The eldest princess of Alsace nodded and said, "Yes, I didn't expect you to be so smart. I didn't want to tell you originally."

"It's not difficult for you to get the Chitose Fire flames. The difficulty lies in how to save the Chitose Fire flames."

"In order to steal the Thousand Years Fire, I spent a lot of resources and manpower, and even exchanged a plain with the Lower Burgundians for special magic resources. The Lower Burgundians are a tribe of water, and their water magic is very powerful. In essence, the Thousand Years Fire is just the most powerful fire magic."

"Yet I worked so hard and still failed."

"The thousand-year-old fire you saw before was obtained by me in exchange for a law from Alsace and the contract monster."

Iveta's eyelids twitched, what a good guy.

What kind of collaborator and traitor are you?

For a moment, he felt conflicted towards the eldest princess.

The eldest princess glanced at him expressionlessly, clearly noticing the change in Ivita's eyes. If it were anyone else, the eldest princess might be able to ignore the contempt in his eyes.

But Ivita was her descendant, which made the eldest princess open her mouth to explain a little. "That law is just a subsidiary law in the area under the jurisdiction of the Kingdom of Alsace."

"Although the contract monster is a very evil thing, it clearly marks the price and trades at equal prices. It will not make the traders pay too many precious things in exchange for a thousand-year-old fire flame."

"Moreover, I snatched the only 6-year-old heir of the Lower Burgundians half a year ago and gave it to the contract monster."

"Contract monster, returned the law to me."

“So, both the plains and the law, I have traded them back.”

The eldest princess of Alsace said coldly: "However, I was driven out of the capital of Alsace and was forbidden to return forever."

"Stupid Alsatians!"

Ivita had a better impression of the eldest princess.

It sounds like she's just an unruly witch, but not to the point of being a traitor.

Ivita said: "I have heard many people say before that the Burgundians are a water people, and their water magic can also suppress the flames of the Thousand Years Fire?"

The eldest princess glanced at Ivita strangely, seeming to think that you, an Alsatian, don't even know this.

She said: "Yes. The Lower Burgundians did not originally live in the area where they are now. They moved there after the ancient civilization collapsed inexplicably. The place they originally lived should be the North Sea. They may Living on an island in the North Sea, the island is inhabited by some gods. The blood of these people is confused with the water magic left by the gods and the elves who serve the gods."

Princess Alsace shook her head and said: "But these are not very clear, because since the ancient civilization collapsed inexplicably, there are not many people who are literate, and the inheritance of knowledge is almost exclusively passed down by word of mouth. To pay attention.”

"Scholars of law and history, as well as the respected philosophers of the past, are regarded by us as the most useless people. We let them starve to death, die of thirst, and let them die in humiliation. , but it was not until hundreds of years later that he began to regret his actions and discover the value of scholars."

Ivita immediately said: "In this era, scholars have opened many universities, and there are also alliances between universities - school cities."

The eldest princess of Alsace was slightly surprised. "I didn't expect that scholars who were as humble as dogs in our time could actually be brilliant in this era."

Iveta said: "Those forces in the school city also issued a declaration that they wanted to eliminate magic and the church."

"..." The eldest princess was silent.

After a while, she said: "This is the bad nature of people. No matter what position you stand on, what you always think of is the simplest solution - to eliminate the other party, deny the other party, and not recognize any of the other party's advantages."

“I have seen this too many times from the Alsatian people.”

The eldest princess of Alsace said: "The royal family of Alsace has the blood of fire dragons, but the people of Lower Burgundy are of the water clan."

"So, we are natural enemies, as powerful as fire and water. I originally thought that as a branch of the Alsace royal family, you would be very familiar with the Burgundians."

I?

Deviation?

Sorry, I am directly connected!

Ivita instantly understood that the eldest princess should have made a wrong judgment when she saw him exploring this place, but only brought so few people with him.

She probably didn't even understand how the original owner lost the throne of Alsace.

Ivita felt that the flames of the Chitose Fire were very useful, so she tried to ask: "Princess, please tell me how you successfully preserved the flames of the Chitose Fire."

"It's not that I won't tell you." The eldest princess of Alsace sneered. "I told you, did it work? Do you have the resources to do what I told you?"

"How big is your territory?"

It was embarrassing to say, but Iveta said it anyway. "It's a barony that has just gone through war, but I think it will be very prosperous in the future."

The eldest princess glanced sideways at Ivita, but said nothing.

She probably thought it was outrageous, but out of upbringing, she didn't say anything.

"Oh, then you are just a small noble. I used the resources of the entire kingdom to do it, and I was kicked out of the Kingdom of Alsace afterwards."

"So do you think it will be of any benefit to you if I tell you the method?"

Ivita suddenly felt sad.

I am poor.

The eldest princess said: "Time is limited, because we don't know how long we can maintain this special state now."

"Don't ask me any more, you can get the information by spending your own time."

"You look up at those murals. There is a secrecy spell on this mural, which is only open to two specific people."

"The first type is those who want the Chitose Fire to continue."

"The second type is those who want to collect laws."

The eldest princess of Alsace said: "Let's not talk about the second one for now, it is too far away for you."

"..." Ivita.

After the eldest princess knew about his family background, she began to look down on him.

The eldest princess of Alsace said: "So, if you want to see the content on the mural, you should meet these two conditions. If you are not such a person, you will be blocked by the secrecy spell."

"The power of this spell lies in you. Your eyes have actually seen all the content and all the stories on the mural."

"However, the secrecy spell will make you forget it directly. You have obviously seen it, but you don't remember anything, not even that you have seen it."

So that's it.

Ivita was silent for a moment. Speaking of this, only people who really want to be good to Viscount Ambrose's country, or people who really want to collect laws, can see it.

The god Pan once divined for himself. He said that he was a person who wanted to gather land and water, that is, a person who gathered laws.

But in this case, I should be able to see the story on the mural!

Yvetta calmed down and sighed.

He found himself needing to sort out his inner self.

Does he want the independent country of Viscount Ambrose to become better?

Was he really going to collect the Torah?

He seemed to have always assumed that collecting laws was equivalent to helping the original owner restore the country.

But he should ask himself, is this true?

Ivita thought about Lolita who was forced to kill others due to the changes in the social environment. She thought about the families in Baron Moro who had lost their husbands and fathers. She thought about every person he met after coming to this world. people.

Ivita shook her head. "I have no idea."

The Hearthstone Witch and Lolita looked at him strangely. In their opinion, Ivita was just standing in a deserted corner talking to herself.

"What?" The eldest princess frowned strangely.

Ivita sighed. "I mean, I don't know if I really want to collect laws."

"The god Pan said yes to my divination."

"But in fact, it was just a prophecy. When I came to this world, I just wanted to fulfill my responsibilities, so I chose to help the original me regain the throne."

"I feel that since one person inherits the identity of another person, he should perform the duties of the original person."

The eldest princess is a little messy. "What did you say?"

Ivita looked at the eldest princess. "I don't know if this counts as a sincere desire to collect laws."

"But I have seen so many people in this world, and now I have become a small ruler. Maybe in the eyes of you and those big people, my ruler is too small, too small."

"But I want to see, see the laws of this world, and see the lives of people in every region."

"I want to realize my own laws on this land. Maybe one day, all the laws on this land can be designed and changed according to my own ideas, and then everyone can abide by them."

“Perhaps then I will eliminate the concepts of poverty and affluence so that all injustices will not happen.”

"But it is also possible that I will create a terrible Leviathan world with extreme authoritarianism."

“Right now, I don’t know what I will do in the future.”

Ivita said: "But my emotion is not very strong. I think I just want to try."

"Because I think some people, their rule and their laws, are just wasting the resources of this world and serving their own interests."

"I want to try to see if I can do better. I just want to make my rule larger. The bigger the better, and I don't have a clear idea of ​​how big my territory should be. concept."

Ivita frowned, as if thinking. "When I first came to this world, what I was thinking was that I wanted to acquire a territory larger than Alsace so that I could restore my country."

"But now, I seem to have been changed by something."

He raised his head, wanting to take a look at the eldest princess mocking him, but at this time, the eldest princess's figure was almost transparent enough to disappear.

Because she was about to be excluded from this time and space.

The iceberg-like face of the eldest princess of Alsace was broken by Ivita's words.

The eldest princess opened his mouth.

"You actually want to collect laws!"

"You are just a baron! To achieve what you said, you have to create your own universal law. In the process, you have to destroy how many original orders and how many new ones you have to create. order!"

"Are you going to follow the path of ancient civilization, the ancient world, and the civilization of fire?"

"You are too optimistic, you... I want to have a good talk with you, future generations..."

But it was too late, the eldest princess disappeared in the next moment and was excluded from this time and space.

After she disappeared, the part of the mural that was originally blocked by her figure was displayed in front of Ivita's eyes in a concrete scene for the first time.

Ivita saw it.

He saw all the stories in the murals on the dome!

After reading this story, Ivita truly understood what the Chitose Fire was and how it was produced.

Iveta said: "Hearthstone Witch, stop first, don't pry!"

"I saw the mural!"

"Things turned out to be like this. Now I understand why the Thousand Years Fire is the law of mankind."

I can’t write anymore. Author, I’ll write more tomorrow.
