Chapter 71 Faith



It's raining.

Sully was sitting on the second floor of the building.

The weather has been so cold lately that it feels like the chill is radiating from your very bones.

So while others are still wearing light clothing and just following the season, wearing some winter-specific accessories, such as scarves, woolen hats, etc.

Sully wrapped himself up into a fairly nice-looking ball.

Not long ago, Egbert and the raven had a life-and-death battle. Sully did not ask who won or lost, but he tacitly acknowledged that there were ravens that could change their forms in the small building.

Suli chose to accept this fact, but he also stuffed the notebook that recorded the information that was destined not to be shown to the public into the stove burning "silver carbon".

Although no one except him could understand the Chinese characters on it.

But he did it anyway.

However, it is not so much that the thing in the furnace is silver carbon, nor that it is stone condensed by the power of elements.

Euphia was more careful than the others. Knowing that Suli would be cold, she directly gave him a large amount of fire elemental stones that she had condensed.

These are usually used as bombs by Euphia, but when not activated by her elements, these stones are just flame stones that emit heat, and their surface temperature is no different from that of ordinary flames.

So when the notebook was thrown on it and ignited by the high temperature, burning quickly until only the last bit of it was left, the crow standing behind Sully suddenly realized that his previous actions were wrong from the beginning to the end.

Sully did not want any self-conscious being to see anything in that book.

When Du Ya understood this concept, he began to feel guilty, heavy and depressed.

He wanted to ask the reason, but he didn't want to interrupt Sully who was sitting by the window, so he quietly looked at the rain outside the window.

After a while, it was Suli who broke the silence first.

"What do you want?" Suli looked at the crow.

He had no prejudice against the crow he rescued, except that he was shocked at how the crow, which used to eat rice, suddenly turned into a human.

But when he thought about those words and how they might be heard by intelligent life, he inexplicably felt that the possibility of him moving to Mars was not as great as the possibility of everyone in this world moving to Mars and leaving him behind.

Commonly known as social death.

As Sully was immersed in his thoughts, he couldn't help but breathe more lightly, fearing that the images in his memory would trigger his overly sensitive embarrassment syndrome if he wasn't careful.

"I..." Du Ya hesitated, "I want to know why you burned that book."

He still asked the question. The thoughts of monsters were different from those of humans. After thinking over and over again, he asked the question directly after confirming that it was necessary to ask the question.

Suli also replied calmly: "Because it is impossible to reach heaven overnight, there is no need to describe the scenery of heaven by yourself."

Apart from the idea of ​​destroying the evidence of social death, Sully also believed that "it is impossible for a person to regard the scenery in the sky that others see as real while standing on the ground."

"So the fantasy in this whole story only exists in the brain of someone like me who is good at writing stories."

Obviously, Sully was simply expressing his thoughts without any metaphors, but Crow inexplicably felt that he seemed a little... lonely.

Digging his fingernails into his palms, he blurted out, "Is it because they can't follow your train of thought that you think they don't need to know those things?"

Those records were all about what humans were like, but when it came to the details, Crow was always seeing monsters from a distance.

Humans are subject to the control of their superiors, and monsters are completely hostile to humans because of the hostility of their superiors.

Therefore, rather than saying that the other people in the small building cannot understand the knowledge in the book, it is better to say that he is asking whether he is not worthy of understanding Sully.

The feeling was too complicated. After saying that, Du Ya lowered his head.

And Suli...

He felt helpless.

“Until there is theoretical and practical evidence, everything that has not been realized is just fantasy.”

Sully is a person who often makes rational judgments rather than emotional ones, so he doesn't understand why Raven can say such sentimental and painful words.

"Assuming that the cake is painted realistically enough, and the people who are forced to eat it believe it, then it is real. Then when the cake can never come true, what should the people who believe in the existence of the cake do?"

"If everything is just a fantasy, nothing can be realized, and Eden does not exist at all, then the original believers will eventually fall into madness and dementia."

Suli certainly hopes that the world will become a better place.

But some things cannot be directly applied within the framework of one's own understanding.

Don't think that you will become a giant just by standing on the shoulders of giants.

Soulis never thought that she could become a recipient of other people's prayers.

But he is also very clear about his influence on the people around him.

The laws of the other world that he took for granted, once discovered by the people around him, would inevitably believe in them even if they did not regard them as truth.

But this is just because he believes it, so it is right.

This theory of causality is terrifying precisely because it is so superficial.

You know, even Suli himself couldn't be sure that those things could be applied in this world.

Besides him, who else in the world needs to "burn charcoal for heating"?

Just like, apart from him, who would know that there are billions of people in another world without elemental power.

Sully didn't want to cause trouble to the people around him, but the crow, who didn't know the human heart, listened to everything written in the book.

The rain stopped when snowflakes fell outside the window.

After white became the main color adorning the world, the crow said, "I am too one-sided."

Du Ya admitted his mistake very decisively.

Sully immediately chose to skip this topic and started a new one: "Come to think of it, I don't know how Willard is doing now."

Even though they had no intention of taking action against Willard at that time, and Euphia didn't mind locking him up for them, but when Willard himself planned to become a tool in Sully's hands, the others felt that it would be harmless to let him go.

Sully also asked at the time: "Is it really okay to just put it back like that?"

In Suli's opinion, Lan Zhe's simple drug threat does not have much effect.

The idea that information cannot be leaked is too broad.

If Willard had leaked the news before dying, the trouble he brought would certainly be more trouble than his life.

However, Sully, who thought so far ahead, got an answer that was not far ahead at all.

Euphia happened to be there to deliver the Fire Elemental Stone to him at that time. When faced with this question, the Flame Girl responded frankly: "Of course it's because Willard has already regarded you as everything to him."

"Cyril, who has been with you for so long, and the people you met later, didn't treat you as highly as Willard did." Yufia put the stone on the stove and pondered, "Hmm... I suddenly feel that this word is not appropriate to describe Willard's feelings towards you."

"The word more appropriate here is - faith."

Euphia looked up at Suli, who was forced to take a few steps back due to the burning sensation because he was too close to the Fire Elemental Stone. She thought about what she said and nodded affirmatively.

Sully was confused and said, "So, Willard was released so easily because he believed...believed in me?"

"Of course." Yufia teased Sully deliberately.

Unlike other people's feelings towards Sully, Euphia usually only regards Sully as a smart brother with inhuman intelligence.

But the truth is not much different from what she said.

Willard was able to go back and had experienced no less.

Later, Egbert specifically found this idiot who dared to use suli to fish, and had another one-sided fight. The conclusion was that Willard, covered in blood, raised his head and said to Egbert enthusiastically: "You can believe in the existence, why can't I..."

"Besides, I just want to be the most useful tool in his hands!"

Willard said this at the time, and Egbert did not dare to show the slightest bit of emotion, being annoyed by Willard's idea of ​​trying to take his position.

Euphia almost died of laughter outside the prison door, and said to Egbert rudely: "You have come to this day."

That scene is so funny that I can still laugh out loud when I think about it now.

Then Euphia actually laughed, which confirmed to Sully that he was being amused.

Now, Willard has returned to Lee City and, as expected, has been removed from his position as heir.

After the king learned all the reports submitted by the soldiers, Willard's only role was gone, and he had to walk towards his palace in shame.

Just when passing by the garden, Willard met Ophelia.

Ophelia, the oldest of the middle-aged descendants of the prince of Amicbee, was known as the eldest princess and was favored by the king. Not only did she have her own fiefdom, but the king even publicly stated that he was reluctant to let her go to the fiefdom.

Interestingly, Sriqing City is one of Ophelia's fiefdoms.

All those who are blessed with glory seem to have the capital to cultivate real arrogance, so when facing Willard, who is like a bereaved dog, they speak harshly to him without any hesitation: "Waste."

Whether it was the contemptuous look or the disgust expressed in body language, Willard clenched his fists in an instant, but the gorgeously dressed princess didn't even want to give him a glance and turned away.

But also...

Standing in the position of the eldest princess, she must have known for a long time that the so-called heir is just a tool.

Willard smiled self-deprecatingly, but temporarily stopped walking towards his palace.

Undercover, how can you get valuable and important information?

How can tools achieve their mission perfectly?

Willard didn't know, but he knew that Ophelia must know more than he did.

Less than an hour after Sully brought up the subject of Willard, someone came on that snowy day with the news that Willard had given up almost everything to get.

The author has something to say:
