Chapter 87 Letter to God
The elder said quite a lot, and the owner of the wooden house repeated some intermittently. The general content was that we can continue to plant fruit trees after we move to other places.
——Since we have to move, why not do it in one step? Can we move to a place rich in sugar?
——Yes, I will try to find a place that meets the conditions.
——What about honey? Can we go to a place suitable for raising honey?
——I will ask someone to find it.
——I don’t want to live in a wooden house anymore. If I live on the ground, it would be more convenient to build a stone house, right?
——...I will try my best to satisfy whatever you want, so I hope you can cooperate with me in moving away from this mountain.
The more Lucifer listened, the more something was wrong.
If it were placed on the earth, it would be fine, just to achieve the goal, the leader would draw a big pie for the people below, but if it were placed in this world... Lucifer believes that this elder really intends to "work hard" to meet everyone's requirements.
When the elder agreed, he used relatively euphemistic words, and he probably really wanted to try hard, so it was not judged as a lie. This led to the villagers having no doubts about the elder's ability, and even overestimated it a lot.
It is simply a nail-biting household, and they will not let go until the compensation offered by the person responsible for the demolition exceeds the psychological price.
But if you are from this world, your thoughts may be very simple. You may be reluctant to leave the place where you have been living, and you may have never seen a volcanic eruption, so you do not take the danger to heart.
Now when they hear the elders talking about how much better things will be after moving, they can't help but ask, "Is it better now? What? Really? In what way is it better than now? Is it possible to eat sweets at will? Is it really possible? Then..." In this way,
Expectations for the future have gradually deteriorated.
After listening to what the owner of the wooden house said, Lucifer cured his leg and then left. Before leaving, he even advised: "I suggest you move out as soon as possible."
Lucifer then walked around the village and left without talking to anyone else, indicating that the information he wanted was in this part.
The next second Lucifer walked out of the village, Lucifer was ejected from the record, but the memories were only part of the record. They might just be supplementary materials used as evidence. Then they were stuffed into Lucifer's brain.
to record the remaining information.
[It has been determined that the reason why the dragon (No. 327) appeared in the mountain village was because the elders persuaded everyone to move in an improper way. Although they were well-intentioned, their desire to satisfy everyone's requirements gradually turned human beings from expectations for the future to expectations for the future.
Delusions about the future.]
[Taking this opportunity, the desires that have been suppressed for many years were released in a way approved by divine punishment, and swept the entire village. Everyone except the elders was infected by fanatical emotions, and their desires were revealed in a short time.
Within two months, he turned into a dragon.]
[The dragon was cleared by Michael last month. For details, please see Michael’s mission report last month.]
[Additional report: 37 days after I visited the village on the mountain, the volcano erupted. Except for the elder Pompeii and the seventeen young men and women he led who were exploring new settlements, the rest were buried under the volcano and died. This was reported by Samael
The soul was recovered.】
Lucifer's report was very concise, not extreme at all, and contained no words to express his personal thoughts. It was just routine, and his preference for human beings could not even be seen.
If he had to say it, persuading them to move quickly was a bit of concern, but he just said that. Lucifer looked at the owner of the wooden house and didn't seem to take it seriously, and Lucifer didn't explain much.
He seems to be a rather cold guy... not quite the same as Lucifer imagined himself to be.
But forget it, it’s just a report and I can’t see any trends. Let’s read a few more reports before drawing a conclusion. Compared to Lucifer’s character, Lucifer feels that he should focus on the “dragon”.
Although this report is concise, it still answers one of Lucifer's questions, that is, what exactly is a "dragon".
The dragon is the embodiment of human desire.
The report says "in a manner permitted by divine punishment"... indicating that the loophole of divine punishment on desire has been discovered at least since this time, but according to Lucifer's current observation, this loophole may not have been closed.
Divine punishment in this period should be the same as now. Basic needs are okay, but doing wasteful things to satisfy one's own desires just for enjoyment is not okay.
For example, the people in this mountain village just daydream about how wonderful their future will be, and they don’t really do anything wasteful. God’s punishment does not punish them, which makes them unaware of the problem and want to
- Hopes keep piling up until a dragon appears.
They rely too much on the judgment of divine punishment, thinking that if divine punishment has not come, they have done nothing wrong... It is difficult to say anything about this kind of inertial thinking.
...But there is nothing you can do about it. If you want to kill someone, it would be fine if you were punished by God one second before the killing. But these people just daydream. If you are punished by God for all this, it is simply more terrifying than thought crime.
Therefore, it is actually reasonable to not encounter divine punishment.
Lucifer opened his eyes and couldn't help but sigh.
If his conclusion is correct, Eden will probably encounter a dragon in a while... I never expected that such an accident would happen.
Raphael sent this report in a timely manner. Although he could not figure out how to avoid the appearance of dragons according to his plan, knowing it in advance and encountering it suddenly were two different things.
"What did you see? Why are you sighing?" Raphael asked curiously.
Even though Lucifer seems to have been in the record for a long time, in fact, it took a moment in the real world. After all...
The angel's reading method (crossed out) is quantum wave reading (crossed out)... Well, unlike humans, records are transmitted by thoughts, which is extremely efficient.
Lucifer shook his head and answered Raphael's question: "Nothing. I saw a village that refused to move and was buried by a volcanic eruption."
"That's right." Raphael nodded.
Lucifer looked at Raphael and suddenly remembered his "angel perspective" in the record... He couldn't help but ask: "Raphael, what do you think of humans?"
Raphael was stunned for a moment, then smiled helplessly: "You have asked me this question before. Although I have lost my memory, it really hasn't changed at all."
Lucifer was silent. After meeting Lucifer, he felt that the difference was quite big, but why did both Michael and Raphael think that he had not changed?
"Let me think about it." Raphael recalled, "My previous answer was 'Human beings are the creation of God the Father and are living beings that need our care'..."
"What's the answer now?" Lucifer asked.
Raphael smiled and said: "Now...'I finally know what is worthy of attention about human beings. They have become interesting and their creativity is amazing.' That's about it. After all, this is the first time I have seen this kind of human beings."
.”
Lucifer repeated: "Creativity... Speaking of which, what about the creativity of angels?"
"..." Raphael was silent for a moment, then said in a subtle tone, "Of course angels are also creative. For example, Gabriel's Soul Factory was created by you..."
Lucifer looked away awkwardly.
This... I made an invention just to deceive people. No matter how I think about it, it’s a bit hard to live with... My past self was really...
Raphael knocked on the table: "Have you finished reading the report? Return it to me after reading it. It won't be good if you take this out for too long."
"Wait a minute, I'll look at something else."
Lucifer said quickly, then returned to the catalog again, and began to think about which one would be better to read this time... By the way, let's take a look at Lucifer's last report before leaving heaven. Maybe we can find out the reason why he ran away from home.
What.
Thinking like this, Lucifer immediately chose the report with the latest time.
Compared with the previous one, this report was very crude. There was a feeling of not wanting to write between the lines, and Lucifer did not fall into the memory of the scene. It seemed that there were only simple words, instilled into Lucifer's consciousness.
[Look at those stifled geniuses. Their talents are not recognized and their inventions are thrown into warehouses. Is this the "stability and peace" you want? 】
[I've said it before, it's fine if you let go a little bit. If there is a psychological shadow, it should be me, right? I'm not afraid, so what are you still worried about? 】
Lucifer: "...?"
Is this a report? It feels like a letter of complaint...and it was handed over to God, right? Did Lucifer sound so rude?
Chapter completed!
