Cabin for two with Maid of Mond
Page 159
Before Toth pressed the question, Her Royal Highness continued to speak.
"Don't ask me the details of that world. At the beginning we... I stayed in that world not long ago, and I didn't fully understand everything in that world. I can only tell you... that gem race, among the many lives I have seen Among them, it can be regarded as the most beautiful and the saddest."
As a storyteller, Her Royal Highness is obviously not qualified, but she didn't intend to tell a complete story.
Now she may just be...
Subtly, revealing a bit of sentimentality.
Her Royal Highness rubbed the ball of dry food wrapping paper between her fingers, and then turned it into a grip, forming a fist to completely hold the ball of paper.
"However, in terms of sadness, most worlds are actually similar. For example... this world."
Four volumes and eighteen chapters, will the fire spread?
The hand that clenched the ball of dry food paper seemed to respond to some kind of will.
These words that Her Royal Highness suddenly said, are they just chatting casually?Or did you have new ideas on how to deal with Toth after taking a break?
Or... How much sentimentality has been produced by the influence of weakness and exhaustion?
Toth waited quietly.
However, Her Royal Highness seems to intend to follow through on her previous attitude, without detailing how sad this world is.
It didn't interrupt the conversation.
She turned her head slightly and looked at Toth.
"You said that in the previous world, you acted according to the will of the gods."
"It can be considered."
"Can it be considered...?" Her Highness the Princess rested her chin on the back of her hand, narrowed her eyes, and said, "I don't think you are like an envoy who clearly acts according to the will of the gods...so you belong to the group who feel the will of the gods." The type of hero who embarks on a journey?"
"Oh? You are so mysterious, but I have to be honest?"
Even though he said this, Toth spoke in a brisk tone without pausing, and quickly continued to speak.
"It's okay to tell you, I'm actually not an aborigine from the previous world, but from another world. I was an ordinary person at first, and there was nothing special about it except a little premature death."
Her Royal Highness pondered for a moment, and said, "You died early... you died once, before the last world... so you reincarnated from the original world to the previous world and started your life again?"
"Sure enough, I'm well-informed." Todd nodded.
Even the "experienced" convicting princess can certainly think of such concepts, but she might not be able to react as quickly as this princess of the abyss.
Now every friend who is more acquainted with him knows that Thoth came from another world.But unlike the story of the dragon slaying journey, before today, the only person who knew that Thoth had crossed over twice was Noelle.
For others, it doesn't make any difference whether Thoth travels once or ten times, and there is nothing to keep secret.It's just that this detail is not necessary to be mentioned as a part of the story, and I only talked about this point with Noelle often in small talk.
Toth continued: "The gods in that world are actually in a state of weakness and withering. After I was reborn, I only had a broad and vague mission, which is to go around and see more in that world, and participate in witnessing the love and hate that is happening in the world. Qiu, everything I have experienced will become the nourishment for that god's new life."
"You said that your coming to this world is also related to that god, so the god was successfully reborn, right? Then because something was summoned by this world, you were sent out to clean up the aftermath across borders?"
"Hmm...it's a bit different. Let's put it this way, in a sense, I may have to thank the evil spirits of the foreign law, or the writers of the clan's external law records. It is because there was a call from another world first, and I was drawn from that world. Only by doing something, I have the opportunity to continue to 'exist'. As for the hostility with the evil spirits of the foreign law, although it is a certain necessity, it is mainly my own choice, and it is not bound by the mission."
Her Royal Highness was slightly taken aback.
"Wait, you just said, continue to exist... so what? You were going to die?"
"Yes, that god is the god of creation, the root of that world, and its rebirth represents the renewal of the entire world, and I should have completely disappeared at the moment the world was destroyed and reborn. Well, there is nothing wrong with understanding death .”
Her Royal Highness took a deep breath and straightened her back slightly...
Moreover, there is a slight anger in the eyes.
"Isn't this 'passing fire'? No, spreading fire is at least the struggle of a group of poor people, and you are directly dedicated to the gods, right? You...are you willing to become a tool of the gods?"
Toth observed the other party's demeanor, and said slowly: "I don't know what you mean by spreading fire, but I can roughly guess it... As for being reduced to a tool, I just said it briefly so I didn't emphasize it. Do you still remember that I have already died once? My entire life is already a reward in itself."
Her Royal Highness was silent for a moment, then shook her head and said, "It's not difficult to guess. Even so, it is still a pawn of the gods in my opinion. For a young man who died young, or anyone who does not want to die, the essence of life is to continue. It is a condition that cannot be refused, even if the price is that the new life is doomed to be burned as firewood, and it can save the world that is about to be destroyed... It is still sad. You should not spread this fire."
"Ah, no, that." Toth scratched the back of his head, and said with some trouble: "You seem to have been putting me into other situations that have something in common... Well, there is a world of fire, right? Listen By saying this, you must be sacrificing someone for the so-called fire transmission, otherwise the world will perish?"
Her Royal Highness nodded and said: "Although it is not the end of the world in the true sense, it is almost the same for people living in that era."
"Well, that's really a big burden. It must be an extremely heavy and oppressive world, right? But the world before me was not in danger of extinction. In other words, even if there is a crisis of extinction hidden somewhere, it's not because of that The demise caused by the lack of new birth of a god."
"Ah?" Her Royal Highness was astonished. "So it's just that the dying god wanted to regain his health and found you and sacrificed you for it?"
"Yes." Toth nodded quickly.
"What's the 'yes'! You, don't you have any doubts, don't you have the heart to fight? Even if your new life is given by that god, it doesn't even have the value of self-consolation to save the world, blind Life and death, you..."
Her Royal Highness pressed the rock with one hand, and once seemed to want to jump over and grab Toth by the collar.
But she watched Toth's face, suppressed her emotions, and gradually turned from indignation to confusion.
"Now you don't look like a fanatic or a person who gave up thinking... Or, were you brainwashed at all?"
Toth smiled, and replied: "Specially let me be reborn and then brainwashed? That god doesn't need to go around in circles like this. In fact, before taking me to that world, that god originally planned to create a new 'protagonist'." To execute the goal. It’s just that after accidentally touching my soul, I felt that I might make some things better, so I was replaced.”
Her Royal Highness stared at Toth and remained silent.
Thoth said again: "By the way, my original world name was not 'Thoth'. This name was also intended to be the identity of the original protagonist."
"That's not important." Her Royal Highness interrupted and said, "So your travels in that world, sacrifice for the rebirth of that god, besides completing the transaction of your life, what can you bring that is enough for you to identify with? Does it make sense?"
"Significant? There must be."
Toth stopped smiling.
Not by turning serious and sinister, but by sheer sincerity.
"Let that world regain more... love."
Four volumes and nineteen chapters of love and war
Her Royal Highness looked over expressionlessly.
That expression slightly reminded Todt of the indescribable expression that Noelle had shown on the issue of dry food just now.
On the same expression that seems to be rigid and unchanged, in fact, the fine movements of the corners of the eyes and the edges of the lips contain a variety of emotional reactions.
First I thought I heard something wrong.
Then came "Are you kidding me?".
It should be followed by something like "You're not mistaken?" or "Are you an idiot?"
Thoth chuckled, and said, "I know it sounds silly, but that's only because saying it now would be too short anyway.
"You asked me before if I had a mentality of doubt and resistance. Let me tell you here, I did, and I was really confused for a while.
"In addition, even for the people of that world, whether the dying god's new life is good or bad is still controversial."
Her Majesty's mask-like expression loosened slightly, thinking about the topic.
"Since the rebirth of the Creator God won't bring about the end of the world, and judging from the details you said earlier, that god doesn't seem to be the type that often expresses his will... Then, the rebirth of the Creator God , On the contrary, it may bring new disputes, such as treasures and various precious resources spawned by divine power."
Todt nodded and said: "Yes, when my journey is drawing to a close and I am about to go to the place where the god is, the last thing that stands in front of me is not an enemy, but a friend.
"That friend didn't know that I would disappear with the rebirth of the world, and he stopped me based on worries about the rebirth of the gods.
"That friend believes that people can live well without gods, and that most of the wars that the world has experienced revolve around the legacy of dying gods.
"If Chuangshi Shen is reborn, he is worried that there will be more factors that attract ambitious people, and the world will fall into a sea of war. He who has already retired will have to pass on his killing skills to students. In this way, the future The real end of the world may be indirectly caused by him."
Her Royal Highness said solemnly: "I noticed that when you said that the gods do not regenerate will not lead to the doomsday, you did not completely deny the possibility of other factors leading to the doomsday. It seems that your friend's so-called 'killing skills' is one of the possibilities sex?"
"Yes, he has regretted the past wars, so he wants to prevent future tragedies."
Although he knew that Her Royal Highness was mainly concerned about the form of the "killing skill", Thoth deliberately ignored it.
It's all another world.
Her Royal Highness did not ask, but said: "Anyway, I think your friend's opinion is quite tenable. From what you said, I don't see the need for that god to be resurrected... But it was resurrected later, so you 'convinced' that friend? Huh? For the will of the gods, use your fists and swords?"
Her Royal Highness made no secret of her sarcasm.
Toth smiled lightly.
"Of course not. Persuasion is persuasion, not by violence, but literally, by verbal arguments. It is not me who came forward to persuade, but a sage."
Totter paused, shaking his head mockingly.
"It's not a sage who is touted for some reason like me, but a real sage in that world."
Her Royal Highness looked straight at Toth.
"That sage, does he have friendship with you?"
"The friendship is quite good. It can be said that he is the most familiar with me among the few sages. I am often forced to listen to him sing poems with no technical content."
"Then, the rebirth of the god means that you will disappear and die. Does that sage know?"
"know."
"...The reason that sage used to persuade the person who opposed the rebirth of the gods was what you just said..."
"Yes, it is love, the love that enriches people's hearts."
"... What did you do during their debate? Did you help the sages persuade their friends?"
"No, I just watched them argue quietly. After my friend finally relaxed, I was ready to set off on my final journey."
Her Royal Highness sits with a particularly straight back, and even leans back slightly.
Her eyes were first disbelief, then powerlessness.
I really want to be angry, but I'm too lazy to even get angry.
To describe it in a more general way, I don't know where to start talking.
"Now I'm starting to wonder if you were brainwashed at the time, or if you were brainwashed before being sent to this world."
"Ha, it's really hard to understand." Toth said with a smile: "It's actually not that strange, just like what I emphasized just now, it's just too brief."
While speaking, Toth also thought of...
——Thinking about it this way, when we first met Wendy, when we talked about the topic of sages in the previous life, I thought Wendy would be baffled, but Wendy surprisingly accepted it easily.
——Although Wendy said at the time that she didn't understand the sage Pokir's thoughts at all, but now that I think about it...that guy actually understood on the spot, right?
——The perspective of a god...
After briefly taking away the miscellaneous thoughts in his heart, Toth continued to speak.
"There should be no way for you to truly understand what happened at that time. It's not a contempt for your wisdom, it's just... a journey is needed."
"Journey..." Her Royal Highness murmured in a low voice.
Although it didn't solve the confusion, these words made her emotionally settled, and her eyes became deeper.
Toth said: "Yes, that is the summary of countless travels and long-term life, and it is also the conclusion of my entire journey in that world. Only travel itself represents all the questions and answers."
"I see."
Her Royal Highness let out a long breath, her shoulders relaxed.
She let it go.
Obviously just a moment ago, she wanted to grab the other party's collar and curse her for being sick, but now, she let go of all the confusion and dissatisfaction with what Toth said about the other world.
She heard an important point that was not the real answer, but more in line with her heart than the answer.
"I understand. You have to go through the journey by yourself in order to leave the world in your eyes." Her eyes no longer stared at Toth, but she also stopped staring at Toth, and looked aside aimlessly. "This is the path of every traveler."
Toth nodded silently.
In fact, it is not impossible to fully share that travel experience with others, but it is certainly not enough for a few long and short chats.
In the future, when the relevant passages are mentioned in the story meeting of the Convicted Princess, Toth will also arrange it a little, so as not to let the audience be confused by these things that are difficult to express clearly.
Only through longer-term contact and the accumulation of countless small conversations distributed in life, can we truly share the journey of past lives with very few people.
Objects like that...
When the back of the silver-white hair flashed in the bottom of my heart, the voice of Her Royal Highness came again.
There was seriousness in her eyes again.
"Have you met Dyne?"
