Fortunately, she was no longer the Witch who thought about reimbursement and Fleece the sheep every day. She quickly controlled her emotions and at the same time forgave Roselle for deducting "Trunsoest Brass Book".
Although "0-02" is Uniqueness, which is more important and valuable than the ordinary Grade 0 Sealed Artifact, it is different from "Hermit" Uniqueness is the same as the items that must be handed over to collect "Great Old One". It is an unexpected surprise to be able to exchange for multiple pieces of Grade 0 Sealed Artifact and a large number of Beyonder Characteristic.
Maybe Goddess gave Brass Book to me just so that I could give it to Roselle at this time? He already knew my identity at that time and was preparing the "Vortex" plan... Thinking of this, the last trace of dissatisfaction in Angel's heart disappeared.
This made her notice that the "trophies" taken by herself and Klein seemed to be too much, so much that she was embarrassed. The most important thing was that neither Roselle, who took the initiative to distribute, nor Bornova, who never spoke on behalf of "God of Steam", mentioned "Fool".
Do they already know that "Fool" actually does not exist, and is just a temporary team of Klein? Or do you think that we can fully represent Him, or even that "Gehrman" is the clone of that existence? Angel's thoughts were spinning, and he couldn't help but glance at Klein. The latter's eyes were hidden under the brim of his hat, and he didn't seem to care about the matter.
In order to cover up his doubts and solve the doubts that had been buried in his heart just now, Angel looked at Roselle and said:
"When 'Hidden Sage' was seriously injured and about to die, there was something I didn't expect... begging for mercy. This is something I have never seen in other Angel.
"Does this mean He is different from other Mythical Creature?"
Not to mention Angel, even if they are born Mythical Creature like "Demonic Wolf" Cottar and "Blasphemer" Amon, they will run away due to disadvantages or actively surrender for some purpose, but it is difficult to imagine that they can behave like "begging for mercy".
Not to mention a few hunter angels who only had tough mouths... Angel murmured, waiting for the only true god present to answer his questions, but saw the other person leaning back and sitting straight on a black iron throne that also appeared twisted in the white mist.
This can be regarded as a certain characteristic of "Black Emperor" Pathway. Nast also liked to have such a pomp before his death... Angel sneered.
"This question involves the difference between 'divinity' and 'humanity'," Roselle said in a clear voice, while glancing at Bornova who was standing nearby with an indifferent expression. "It is also important knowledge for you to maintain your sanity and avoid madness in the future."
Not only did He answer it for me, he also wanted to take this opportunity to remind his son that he was born Sequence 5 and eventually became "Saint Bonoa" Angel? He indeed showed the indifference of human nature, even inferior to Viève who looked more noble and elegant... In comparison, Bernadette, who had just been promoted to Angel, could not see many traces of becoming Angel. However, because Klein and I were anchors to each other, we quickly digested Potion after being promoted and controlled the corresponding power, and our humanity became more abundant... Angel looked at Roselle's movements thoughtfully.
The "Black Emperor" on the throne quickly withdrew his gaze and continued:
"To understand the behavior of 'Hidden Sage', we need to understand what divinity is, which is divided into superficial divinity, true divinity, and divinity in the vague cognition of ordinary people.
"After you became Angel, did you feel the spirit deep inside Beyonder Characteristic that affects you all the time?"
He did not ask Angel in return, but looked at Bernadette, like a kind teacher asking questions to his students.
The latter nodded and said:
"When I was promoted and after that, I could feel an almost pathological desire for knowledge originating from deep within my heart, and the urge to instill the knowledge I had learned into others. I no longer resisted the nonsense that originated from 'Hidden Sage' that I had been guarding against, as if they were the truth, and all the normal rituals and divination I had learned before were Error...
"Of course, this impulse is not difficult to resist. The 'information' solidified in my body when I was promoted can counteract the influence. Therefore, I suspect that 'Hidden Sage' did not spontaneously want to make Knowledge Chases People. He is also a victim of this madness originating from Beyonder Characteristic.
"Maybe this is 'divineness'."
Roselle smiled happily and said:
"It's good to think of this level, but do you think other Pathway's Beyonder will behave similarly if they are affected by divinity and lose control and go crazy? For example, would a Demon or Devil want to share the knowledge of the abyss and the grammar of Devil Language with others?"
"Of course not," Bernadette was startled, and then replied, "As far as I know, even if they are not out of control, these Demon from the abyss are more willing to use seemingly fair contracts to deceive those who summon them, or to induce depraved thoughts in the summoners' hearts and make them crazy..."
At this point, her eyes lit up and she asked speculatively:
"Different Pathway, the expression of 'divinity' is different?"
Many Beyonder are aware of this, but to connect the crazy form with "divinity", a little hint is needed.
Roselle nodded and replied:
"Specifically, it's not Pathway, but 'Sefirah'.
"Divinity in the true sense comes from God in the true sense, and only Oldest One, Creator, and the creatures born from his split personality can be called gods. The everlasting spirit they left behind in Sefirah and Beyonder Characteristic is the divinity that every Beyonder must fight against."
"Three Pillar and those Outer Deity? "Angel asked as if confirming.
"Not only that, according to my speculation, before Original Creator split and fell, His spirit was divided into different parts, each of which controlled the six kinds of Sefirah after the split and produced corresponding consciousness. But in the end, the two Pillar won."
Roselle answered with a somewhat erratic tone.
Six kinds... this excludes "Brood Hive", "Tenebrous World" and "Nation of Disorder" of Outer Deity? By the way, the owners of these three Sefirah did not die. Only the split body of Oldest One had its own consciousness. However, only "Celestial Worthy" and "God Almighty" survived to the second round of competition, and then died together... Angel thought and asked:
"These 'Great Old One' that have fallen or are trying to be revived, and that still exist, are the sources of divinity? Each Pathway also showed different crazy tendencies?"
"Different manifestations of madness are essentially defeats in the confrontation with divinity, losing oneself, and becoming what those 'God' should have behaved like. Of course, the six Pathways of the three Sefirahs that Outer Deity was torn into the barrier are slightly different. They only have to fight against the spirit of Oldest One, but they have to bear the influence of Outer Deity. As Apocalypse approaches, it becomes easier for other Pathways to fight against Oldest One and the Mental Imprint corresponding to Great Old One, but these six Pathways are being eroded more and more due to the weakening of the barrier... 'Black Emperor' and 'Justiciar' are relatively better."
Because "Uncertain Mist" has lost its brain, "Genie" has lost its power... Angel added in his heart for Roselle.
"So, what every Beyonder has to fight against is actually the crazy yet rational spirit of Original Creator, the clear distinction between love and hate, and the aloof indifference to everything, as well as the corresponding leftover consciousness of the former controller of Sefirah. This will reflect the characteristics of its own Pathway and corresponding Sefirah."
Roselle continued.
"For example, 'Knowledge Moor' tends to be indifferent and ruthless, but has an extraordinary persistence in knowledge. 'River of Eternal Darkness' symbolizes the end and death, and has an underlying tone of madness...'City of Calamity' is chaotic and disorderly, but also tends to destruction and conquest, and...Yin-Yang Intercourse." "
Destruction and conquest are the background of "Demoness" and "Red Priest", but what about Yin-Yang Intercourse... Angel's cheeks felt a little hot when he heard it, and he felt that the eyes were quietly falling on him, which was quite uncomfortable.
No wonder I would... It turned out to be Sefirah's problem, the unavoidable "divine" influence of Beyonder... She muttered, puffed up her chest, pretending that she didn't care, but deliberately changed the subject:
"Is this 'true divinity'? What about the other two divinities?"
