You and me under the world tree

"In any case, for dwarves and elves, the so-called gods are not illusory existences, but for humans, the so-called grace is too far away, not to mention that the abundance of our lives is created by us. "

"This……"

"We are planting the land, and we are grazing and raising cattle and sheep. This is the case in the Netherlands today. Even the wide roads, even the fortresses and towns are built by ourselves, and have nothing to do with the gods. relationship? Do you still have to thank God for not sending natural disasters during this period of time?"

These words made Slude feel a little harsh.

Harsh in every sense of the word.

Also, the harshness wasn't due to the kind of empathy she developed because of Hodder.

After all, she is still a god, and that thought took root in her mind, forming her three views and cognition.

And this cognition is incompatible with what Hodder said.

"This land was created by us, Hodder, you should be grateful to Dade for being able to live on this land!"

"Yes, yes, in fact, we should also thank you."

"..."

Maybe it was because Hodder's attitude that seemed to turn around caught her off guard, and Slude's brain suddenly went blank.

In fact, she thought of many possibilities:

Perhaps this man who stood on the human side and exacted revenge on the gods must deny himself.

Perhaps, the man will suddenly become emotional.

She had thought about many possibilities, but she hadn't thought that he would agree with this very simply at this time.

However, Hodder shook his head before her little brain could think about it.

"But it's limited to 'living,' just like your gods killed the giants."

"This……"

"You want to say it's different?"

"This……"

"It's no different, Slude. Loki told me that there are no pure 'gods' anymore. Even you are the descendants of the giant Ymir. The source of all life, isn't it?"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

In any case, there is one thing that is lingering in the history of the Asa Protoss, and that is that they have the blood of giants in their bodies.

Although the Asa protoss have always believed that the ancestor of the gods, Buli, is the ancestor, but even Odin cannot deny the blood in his body, because his mother is Ymir's granddaughter Bestra.

"According to what you say, if human beings were created by gods and live in this world created by you, it means that human beings must be manipulated by you, or even slaughtered at will, then why do people still exist today? Sa God Clan?"

"This……"

"Don't try to deny anything, Slude, I probably know as much as you do. Do you know the so-called king of the gods...why did that man kill Ymir?"

Why did the king of gods kill Ymir?

The reason for this is obvious.

"Don't tell me that he created the world, it would be even more stupid to say so."

So what kind of statement is it?

Unknowingly, Slude suddenly realized that he seemed to have fallen into the language trap set by Hodder.

However, in the face of this so-called language trap, she found that she could not find any reason or position to refute.

What should she say?

What was the reason for her grandfather, Odin, the king of the gods, to start a huge war with Ymir?

Just to create the world?

Not to mention whether this seemingly reversed order can make sense, this statement alone sounds strange.

On the other hand...

"I think, at this point, there should be no need to lie about this, right?"

Just when Slude was trying to organize the sentences in her mind, she heard the sage's slow words.

And after fully understanding what Hodder was thinking, her complexion suddenly darkened.

"You think I'm cheating on you?"

"No, it's just that your habit is not good... It seems that you haven't gotten rid of this habit until now."

Having said that, Hodder suddenly turned around.

He didn't continue to look at the Valkyrie, but only cast his eyes on the entrance of the palace.

"You have always been like this. It seems that you always like to look for the good and reasonable side of others. In other words, you like to make excuses... reasonable and acceptable reasons."

Therefore, it is the same even when facing the matter of the king of the gods.

Certain things were clearly on the table, but now Slude couldn't answer for a while.

But of course, that's only part of it.

Howard saw this very clearly.

Whether they are mortals or gods, their motives may be quite clear, but when they are actually implemented, they are composed of many small thoughts.

Therefore, apart from her own kind character, another important reason is her knowledge of the king of the gods.

"You have lived in the realm of the gods since you were a child. Unlike us stupid mortals who are struggling at the bottom, you are a real god, and to a person like you, the man on the supreme throne is the whole world. The master is your leader."

Not to mention, he is still your grandfather.

Without continuing to look at the expression of the Storm Goddess at this moment, Huode finally just added this sentence silently in his heart.

In short, with these identities superimposed, that bad old man Odin has an extremely lofty status in the hearts of his children and grandchildren.

"What this disparity in status creates...not to mention admiration, but you always subconsciously think that he is the face of the entire Asa Protoss, this feeling is like a part of the kingdom's subjects...and those courtiers As if the nobles would defend the king they are loyal to, they wish their king would be like a white lotus."

It has nothing to do with interests or anything, it's just a matter of dignity and face.

Of course, there is also the sense of security that I am pursuing.

"Because of reverence, I hope he is selfless and great."

Although according to normal thinking, this statement should be reversed.

Only those who are selfless and great should be worshiped and respected. This is the cognition of normal people.

But the reality is often the opposite, because people often only consider face issues when they have obtained enough benefits and are not in a hurry for livelihood for a while.

"However, as a matter of fact, I think both you and I know why that bad old man made up his mind to fight against Ymir in the first place, right?"

Putting aside all false and empty words, just talk about the most practical things in front of you.

As for this matter, Slude himself certainly understands.

Because this has never been a secret among the Protoss.

The story of her grandfather, Odin, the king of the gods, relates to the origin of the Aesir race, the hatred with the frost giants, and the struggle with the Vanir race for world domination.

"It's for...revenge."

After maintaining a moment of silence, Slude spoke.

At this moment, her voice was even a little hoarse.

Because she knew that she was not only speaking for the king of the gods, but more importantly, she recognized the legitimacy of the man in front of her to some extent.

can't argue...

Therefore, she couldn't help raising her head and staring at the dark figure.

Although the decoration of the palace itself tends to be dark, but because the gate itself is open, sunlight can still shine into the palace.

However, when the sunlight fell on the dark evil dragon armor, it did not reflect any luster.

In Slude's eyes, the evil dragon carving on the sage's shoulder armor seems to be showing signs of recovery at this moment.

No, this isn't supposed to be a recovery.

Because the evil dragon carving is just a carving!

But at this moment, she felt that she really heard some kind of roar.

It was the voice of the heart mixed with anger and hatred.

Because of hatred, he doesn't care about morality and justice at all.

After realizing this, Slude suddenly felt his hands and feet became cold.

She really felt as if she was meeting the man in front of her for the first time.

"Do you really care about humans?" she asked.

"I care, and far more than you care."

He slowly took off the holy sword of glory that was carried behind him, and then stuck it on the ground.

'clang'

The sound of metal smashing into the ground was eye-catching, and in her eyes, the wrath rune on the blade was extremely dazzling.

"If you want to say why, I am a human being. As for human beings... No matter what, this race and the people living in this land will not become worse. We will always be the most humble race in the Nine Realms , There is no place even in the prophecy, is there?"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

In the entire Nine Realms, as an intelligent race, the saddest part of human beings has never been played by the gods in the applause.

Because that is just a certain status on the surface.

In fact, the saddest thing about them is their own humbleness and weakness.

Most uncomfortable of all, they are not theoretically the 'oppressed' party.

Because they simply do not have the ability and means to resist.

Rather, the reason why they were created is for the current scene.

This is the saddest place.

Not by being oppressed, but because it was meant to be.

They have never been the masters of the world, let alone the masters of the atrium world.

They have only obtained the gift of the gods, so they have a little bit of power to use the land under their feet to seek survival for themselves.

Perhaps in the past, Hodder would have thought that the Aesirs were too cruel and irrational, and maybe he would have thought that the Aesirs were just bad-tempered.

But after knowing certain facts, he instantly realized the meaning of human existence.

"For your gods, we humans are just a tool, elves and dwarves will not be mentioned for the time being, but Loki sent me a message at the end, the reason why humans are set to be short-lived is for one thing :population."

Having said that, Hodder paused for a moment.

He turned around and once again looked at Slude's beautiful face.

"I think the God of Wildfire shouldn't have to deceive me in this regard."

At this moment, an impulse suddenly appeared in the goddess's heart, and she really wanted to say directly: He lied to you, and things are not like this at all.

Because she suddenly felt that she understood something.

The man in front of him obviously lost his greatest support, and his "helper" in God's Domain has completely disappeared, but his fighting spirit and desire for revenge have never been extinguished.

On the one hand, it is because of his experiences and encounters, the kind of pain lingers in his heart, always drawing motivation for him.

But more importantly, perhaps at the last moment, the God of Wildfire contacted this man by some means on the eve of being caught for trial and exiled, and told him everything.

For these reasons, he can continue to maintain a high fighting spirit.

She felt that she was gradually understanding everything.

However, when certain words lingered in her heart and swirled in her throat, she found that she couldn't say them anyway.

Because it's a fact.

She has never been in the habit of lying, let alone she absolutely does not want to lie to the man standing in front of her now.
