Chapter 15 Next(1/2)
"Let's talk about the second point."
"The second point is about my problem. While calming down Liz, I also quietly added fuel to the flames to make her see the reality as clearly as possible."
"How?"
"The moment she passed out, I implanted a piece of my memory into her consciousness."
"Hey! Didn't you say you won't control her?"
"I have no control? I just sent a specific memory to her mind and let her experience that memory. It does not affect her thinking in essence. To her, that memory is like a
Dream, when she wakes up, that memory will naturally be slowly forgotten."
"What memory?"
"The memory of my fight with Nancy..."
"Oh hey...won't this increase her hatred?"
"I don't know, but at least she has the right to know this experience. After all, that battle was not easy, and I didn't mean to kill Nancy... I know this seems like quibbling, but I really didn't
I regret my choice. As you said, Nancy and I were enemies in different positions at that time. Even though she was not actively against me, the moment she pointed her weapon at me
, the two of us can only be enemies."
In fact, when I said this, I couldn't even believe it, and my heart started to waver. My hands even trembled a little, and I almost couldn't hold the cup steady. And Erica suddenly stretched out her hand and held mine.
With trembling hands, after feeling the warmth from her palms, my mood gradually returned to calm.
"Thanks."
"You don't need to say thank you, and you didn't do anything wrong."
"Whether it's right or wrong, you can't just rely on your own thoughts."
"Do you still have to look at what other people think? You are too naive. If others say that it is right to give him all the property you have worked hard to save all your life, will you give it to him? If others say that it is right for you to die, then what will you do?
Will you commit suicide?"
"...No. But how could there be such a stupid question in the world?"
"The question is fixed, but the prefix of the question can be changed at will. Just like the two questions just mentioned, add a prefix reason to the question. For example, if someone asks you for money, all your money can be saved
Live with another person you don't know, but in your opinion, he may make different choices based on some moral principles. No matter what the choice is, at least you will think it is right, but the other person does not think so. His thoughts are yours.
It is right to pay because you are saving people, but it is wrong not to pay because you caused a person's death because you did not help."
"What ridiculous reason is this?"
"Moral kidnapping is a method often used by some bastards in later generations. And the most ridiculous thing is that the other party's morality is not based on a fair decision but a judgment of interests. If it is good for you, then it is correct and the most moral choice.
And if it is not beneficial to oneself, then it is wrong moral corruption."
"Are there a lot of these... jerks in the 21st century?"
"Think about Mr. Wesker from before. There are idiots like him all over the world. So this kind of bastard has no regard for age, gender, country, ethnicity or generation, even in this world. I miss you.
You must have encountered many before, right? For example, those bastards who wanted to capture you as slaves before, did you have any psychological burden in killing them at that time?"
"No……"
"Then what are you worried about? There is essentially no difference between the two things. You just said that if you don't kill Nancy, you will die. So why should you care about her family if you survive after killing her?
The accusation against you? To put it another way, you felt that you did nothing wrong at the time. That was because you knew the ins and outs of the whole thing. You killed many maids, but you also saved more people. Do you think
Did you do something wrong?"
"I didn't think I was wrong, but... I just felt that I might be able to do better and save more people..."
"Why are you getting more and more stupid?!"
Erica slapped me hard on the head. Although I didn't feel much pain, I still received a big blow in my heart. Because she was a bastard calling me stupid...
"Don't think too much, your mind will go crazy. Anyway, judging from the results, you did nothing wrong, and you don't need to care about those people's accusations. You are not the Virgin Mary. There is no need to be overflowing with love. You can't save those people."
It's just an incidental result. If it were me and someone dared to accuse me after I saved people, I would only send him a bullet and let him go to God. Maybe only God can satisfy such a person.
Extravagant expectations. Having compassion is a good thing, but having too much compassion is self-destructive.”
Of course I understand what Erica said, but I just don’t understand why my mentality has changed so quickly recently. Maybe it takes me some time to adapt, or maybe I just want to chat with her. In short, my current mood
Things are getting much better. As for Liz and Polly, I can only wait until Liz wakes up before making a decision. No matter what she thinks of me after she wakes up, I still won't just sit back and ignore them. I don't ask for anything from them.
Any and all rewards, I just hope that my state of mind can let go of these unnecessary burdens naturally. After all, our lives will still be long in the future.
"I'm a little hungry. What time is it now?"
"Oh, I thought you weren't going to have lunch. It's already 11:30 now."
"Then I'll go order a meal and you guys will wait."
"It hurts so much. Where am I?"
Unknowingly, I appeared in a very dark corridor. My body was walking forward involuntarily, but the subtle pain that spread throughout my body made me extremely uncomfortable.
"I... am I dreaming? My body... is out of control..."
When "I" continued walking for a certain distance, I finally came to a large basement with some torches, and only then did I clearly see the details of the clothing on "my" hands and feet.
"This is not me, I have never worn this kind of clothes... This feeling of familiarity... Is it that elf?!"
This time I realized that I was not dreaming. It seemed that the evil elf had cast some magic on me to immerse me in this "hallucination", because I couldn't think of any other explanation other than hallucination.
.
"This basement... looks familiar..."
Just as I was walking forward uncontrollably, a figure suddenly jumped out from behind a stone pillar and attacked "me". Although "I" quickly dodged the opponent's attack, my abdomen was hit by that
Cut by the familiar blade.
"That knife...Nancy! It's Nancy!"
I shouted Nancy's name in surprise in my consciousness, but outside of my consciousness, "I" kept silent and alert to Nancy standing opposite.
"This damn evil elf, what false memories are you instilling in me?! Nancy is dead! Stop it! Don't let me experience that scene again!"
My screams had no effect, and "my" body confronted Nancy for a while before a new round of confrontation began.
Nancy is worthy of being called a genius by the president. Her quick sprints and strong skills suppress this "me" time and time again... No, it should be said that it is the elf. I am just a spectator, just the elf's use.
I just used some means to let me experience this incident personally.
There have been rumors in the guild that elves have some special magic that can share certain memories of their own with others. Perhaps what I am experiencing now is the situation when the elf fought with Nancy. I quickly turned my mind to recall my encounter with Nancy.
When I parted, once I discovered something was inaccurate, I would completely deny what was happening and completely believe that the spirit was interfering with my thinking.
Yes, just like that disgusting Baron, she must be using some means to brainwash me, and I can't let her succeed!
In short, Nancy had the upper hand in this round of confrontation, and the elf's body was covered with wounds everywhere, but it was a pity that Nancy did not cause her any fatal wounds, and the ones she felt in the corridor before
The minor wound has healed on its own now.
What a terrifying self-healing ability, it can be compared with that of trolls. They are truly a "group of monsters".
Just when I was concentrating on observing their fight, Nancy across from me suddenly spoke.
"sorry……"
No! This is not true! We are all under brainwashing at this time and cannot speak independently! This damn elf is deceiving me!
"It's amazing that he is still awakening his own consciousness. But unfortunately, the way to release the brainwashing control lies with the Baron. If he can leave here with his own consciousness, he can hold on until we deal with the Baron..."
"I'm sorry...I...did...not...to..."
"Really...that...what a pity!"
As the elf spoke, he suddenly stretched out his left hand and swung a flash of lightning towards Nancy. Nancy also relied on her agility to avoid the magical attack. Then the elf once again used a bunch of terrifying-looking magic attacks.
Magic attacks Nancy, but what makes me happy is that she easily dodges every attack from the elf, and takes advantage of the opportunity for the elf to cast its magic and quickly approaches her to assassinate her.
Although Elf is also very agile and has dodged attacks from Nancy several times, I can clearly feel that Elf's breathing is becoming more and more rapid, and her physical strength seems to be unable to keep up.
Just after another magic attack missed, Nancy quickly rushed in front of her and kicked the blade out of the elf's hand. Just when Nancy was about to stab the elf's chest with a knife, she quickly released a
The magic blocked Nancy's attack and bounced it away.
At this moment, I don’t want to talk at all, I just want to quietly watch the fight between them. For the elf who has lost her weapon, she can only passively defend against Nancy’s attack at this moment, and precisely because of her
Various defensive magics also caused Nancy's attacks to fail again and again.
After a period of fierce fighting, the two of them could no longer hold up any physical strength. However, this elf seemed to have almost unlimited magic power and could not use it up. She took advantage of Nancy's rest.
She kept using magic to suppress her. Looking at the tattered maid uniform on her body, I was completely speechless, because the scars on her body and the various damages on her clothes were exactly the same as when I found her later.
The genie is not deceiving me? Is this the truth? No, I still don't want to believe that genie.
"She is such a difficult little girl, but I'm sorry, I can't stop here. My companions are still waiting for me outside. If we can't eliminate the Baron, it will only make more innocent people suffer from her.
Infringement."
The elf suddenly changed his breath as he spoke, and after brewing for a while, he released a fire magic that he had never seen before. The entire magic was like three shields made of flames surrounding the elf, but the magic in the shield
The flames looked very dangerous, churning and surging like fire oil.
To be continued...
