The shadows of the old world, the tides of the new era. Light and darkness, chaos and dawn... arise alternately in a world of machinery and witchcraft!
But what does this have to do with me, ...
If you want to get something, you must pay the corresponding price.
After so many events, Sean gradually felt the power of this sentence: no one is born with constant gains, and no one can lose forever...
The two of them found a hotel on a busy street to stay in. This was a habit that Sean had gradually developed.
I remember that in my previous life I was more of a homebody, and actually I liked a quiet life. But after coming here and becoming a noble, every day I was either doing passive work or being flattered by a group of people. Gradually, I began to like an environment where there were people serving me and talking to me.
Although the more lively neighborhoods are a bit noisy, they have a rich nightlife and you can buy whatever you want.
Since we just got off the ship today, both Lucille and I were very sleepy!
The child sleeps well, especially after she stopped working as a boatman. She sleeps for a long time almost every day, and the kind that cannot be woken up.
It was only a few minutes from the time when the little girl fell asleep on her bed after dinner, while Sean was still at the desk in the guest room sorting out the information he had seen and heard in the past few days.
The faint breathing sound gradually became clearer, forcing Sean to lower his voice as much as possible.
Move gently,
I was worried that it would disturb the little girl’s sleep.
After sorting out the information, Sean came to Lucille's bed with interest.
In the future, more than 20 years later, it would be her lying on the roof watching over him as he slept, but now it was him sitting beside the bed watching her fall asleep.
Her little lips were puffy and pale.
This is related to the poor food on the cargo ship for many years. Since he followed me, he actually didn't dare to eat anything. It was only after half a month that he started to accept all kinds of food.
I remember that my lips were always covered with cracked dead skin, but now they are gone.
A bit shiny!
Sean reached out and gently wiped away the grease on the other person's lips...
Hi.
This little girl has told me many times to wipe her mouth after eating, but she just can’t do it.
Watching the other person fall into a deep sleep, Sean continued to think about the questions he had just recorded.
He came to Kserk because he heard from the merchant on the cargo ship that there were spreaders similar to the Church of the Ancient God in this world. They acted like believers and spread those seemingly mythical stories and the existence of the great ancient gods behind them.
And it has been specially polished.
It has a religious color similar to the sun god in the Adak region, but this method does not seem to have formed a real church organization in Kserk, or an organization for large-scale worship of gods.
After a day of communication, Sean discovered that the people of Kselke believed in the Creator, but they did not give a real answer to who the Creator was.
For example, something like Adak's sun god, which is a symbol of reality...
Not here.
The creator they speak of is God, a God who simply has an identity and a title, and whose name does not even exist.
However, the strange phenomena of alchemy were regarded as a magical gift from the Creator, and more experience was put into developing this gift.
Based on my own observations over the years, if Adak places more emphasis on theocracy, then the southern continent ranks second, because here theocracy has been transformed into a specific way of life, and areas like Zambutal rank third.
I have been a noble there for more than a year, but I have never found that the temple can provide much useful things. Those priests look more like psychologists who help people solve their problems.
…
Since Kserk is such a place, what we will do next will be more related to alchemists.
The king wants to resurrect his dead daughter?
Sean recalled what the clothing store owner had said. Many of the things he said were lies, but this news did not seem to be groundless. No matter how he spoke or in what tone, he did not seem to be lying.
It seems that his 'brother' did tell him such news and didn't let him spread it out.
If the news is false, then it can only be that the channel that brother obtained it from is fake... But if it is true...
Resurrect the Dead!
With Sean's current abilities, he could go back in time and change the time of someone's death, which would be considered a resurrection! However, the cause and effect of death had already been planted and could not be changed.
Even if you rescue a suicidal person, there is a high possibility that he will be hit by a meteorite while walking the next day, drown while swimming, or die in various strange ways.
Because the result of death has already happened, it is useless to escape it!
If I had the ability of [Time Controller], I might be able to make continuous choices on the timeline. As long as I could postpone the time of death indefinitely, I could live forever, but this is impossible for ordinary people.
Then another method is needed!
Equivalent exchange.
This knowledge suddenly popped up in my head...
Trade something with the ancient gods who stand behind the rules.
The existence of that ability is...
In an instant, Sean felt his head begin to dizzy, as if he was suddenly drunk. The sounds around him and the things he saw became extremely clear, and his heart rate began to increase.
"The black goat that gave birth to all things, Sha..."
Plop~Plop~
I felt my heart pounding and blood rushing to my head. This name suddenly appeared in my mind.
Can't say it out loud!
Shaking his head vigorously, Sean suppressed the urge to say the name with his own will.
…………
In an instant, when I looked up, I found that it was still the bed in front of Lucille.
