"Sigourney... do you want to go back?" Ash pinched the vampire's cold fingertips and asked softly, "If you can go back, what do you want to do?"
Now Sigourney is no longer a human being, but a vampire, a magical creature. Can she still be accepted by the Free Alliance without any reservations?
and……
Sigourney has spent more than ten years in "White Iluf". As a magical creature, she has been despised and neglected by humans and has witnessed too many cruel methods of humans. When she returns to "Red Iluf", can she still stand on the side of humans as sincerely as before?
Ash asked cryptically.
But Sigourney knew what he was really worried about.
indeed.
When he was in Red Iluv, his position was very clear.
He is a human being, standing on the side of humans, fighting against the cold and cruel magical creatures.
But he died as a human being, and came to Bai Yilufu, where he was reborn as a magical creature.
However, the situations of the humans of Red Iluf and the magical creatures of White Iluf are almost exactly the same.
They are always the ones who are humiliated and trampled upon.
He felt the cruelty of magical creatures in Red Iluv.
I also felt the cruelty of humans in Bai Yilufu.
"When I woke up in Rachel's wizard tower, I found myself a moonlight elf..." Sigourney seemed to be answering a question that was not relevant. He supported his hands behind his back, and one hand just pressed Ash's fingertips under his palm, not allowing him to move randomly. "It was painful."
He said these words calmly, "Thinking painfully, I am obviously a human being, why did I become an irreconcilable magical creature? Whether it's an elf or a vampire, their army just killed me and my companions, why did I become the executioner's companion in the blink of an eye?"
"You're not," Ash retorted quickly.
"That's not right." Sigourney curled her lips, "The magical creatures here are so humble and pitiful, being kept in captivity and driven by humans. How can they have the aura of an executioner?"
He lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes resting lazily on his eyelids. "In Rachel's wizard tower, I watched Bart die, and watched other magical creatures struggle and die in his hands. I also... well, went through several experiments... After escaping, I fell into a gathering place of dark wizards, and saw more magical creatures being tortured and experimented on in all kinds of strange ways... Later, the more I understood this world, the more I realized that humans are never less greedy and cruel than magical creatures."
He looked at the ugliness of humans and the misery of magical creatures.
It's like seeing a mirror-reversal of the other world.
In the humans here, we can actually see the shadows of magical creatures from the other side.
Just as cruel and horrific.
As disgusted and resentful as he was towards the actions of the magical creatures in "Red Iluf", he was equally disgusted and resentful towards the actions of the humans in "White Iluf".
He had ever thought extremely, are human beings such evil and dirty creatures?
What is the difference between humans and magical creatures?
He originally hated his current identity as a magical creature. After having such extreme thoughts, he even began to feel a vague disgust for his original human identity.
He was like a wandering soul, unable to have the slightest sense of identity with himself.
Ash was stunned. He suddenly remembered that in Mogo's cabin, Sigourney had told him that after escaping from Rachel's wizard tower - "At that time, I didn't want to contact humans anymore."
Not wanting to contact is not because of fear or rejection.
But it’s because it’s unbelievable that humans can be like this, right?
The good impression that once existed about human beings was completely wiped out after they first arrived in this world.
"Don't look at me like that." Sigourney glanced at him warningly, very frustrated by Ash's clear and all-seeing eyes, "The confusion period of identity change is something that everyone will experience, right?"
Ash nodded vigorously.
So Sigourney, who has come out of this on her own, is really amazing!
"That kind of look is not okay." Sigourney stared at him expressionlessly, "Forget it, turn around and don't look at me."
Ash obediently turned his head and looked straight ahead, but he rubbed his butt and quietly stuck close to Sigourney.
The human's body temperature infected her from the side, and Sigourney's body stiffened for a moment, but quickly relaxed.
He didn't say anything else, as if he didn't notice Ash inching his position.
"Later, when I was able to think about things calmly, I thought that among the humans in this world, there are Mogo and Nans... and in the world over there, when I was infiltrating the magical creatures, I also met a few guys who were not so annoying." His expression seemed to warm up a little. "Thinking of them, I won't completely deny myself."
Ash looked at the starry sky in front of him, thinking of the dusty Mogo's hut, and said softly, "Yeah, they're fine."
He expressed his gratitude once again. After Signe first came to this world, she met Mogo, Meng, Nance, Yelena, Ivan, Yolande... These people with warm hearts were enough to melt the cold and sharp thorns of the soul from another world, and provide a home for the wandering soul who came here alone to stay in peace, so that she would no longer be lost.
"I began to accept reality. I accept my past identity and my current identity." Without Ash's gaze, some words that showed weakness didn't seem so difficult to say, "But I still don't know what I should do."
"You stand by and watch humans humiliate magical creatures?" He shook his head slightly, his tone revealing a cold edge, "Those dark wizards, those disgusting and dirty methods... Once you see them, you can't help but want them to disappear from the world."
Ash blinked. So this is where Mr. Wandering Soul came from?
"Stand on the side of the Camarilla and fight against the Wizarding Association?" He asked himself in confusion, "If the Camarilla eventually overthrows the rule of wizards, then after a few years, will this world become like the other side's world?"
It is like a cycle of history, with roles constantly reversed and one side oppressing and dominating the other.
There is no possibility of reconciliation.
Sigourney once asked Jane this question.
"If humans are weak and magical creatures rule Iluv, how will the magical creatures treat humans?"
Even Jane couldn't answer with any certainty. He could only say, "There's no need to make assumptions that haven't happened yet."
Ash realized belatedly that what Sigourney said at that time was not a hypothesis, but a reality that had already happened in another world.
"So... have you made your choice now?" he asked Sigourney.
Sigourney smiled: "You don't know?"
Ash nodded honestly: "I know. You have made up your mind." There was no more confusion in Sigourney's body, only complete determination.
Sigourney said slowly: "Guess again, humans or magical creatures, which side am I on?"
Ash's eyes showed a faint smile: "I'm not standing on either side."
Sigourney also chuckled in the spiritual world, and whispered in a strange tone:
"I'm not here to end the hatred between humans and magical creatures.
This is absolutely impossible.
There is irreconcilable hatred between people and between magical creatures, not to mention between different races.
It's difficult to understand each other.
For the sake of interests or something else, there will always be friction, disputes and fights.
I just want magical creatures to not be exploited and oppressed. I just want humans to not bow down before powerful magical creatures.
I want to build such a territory.
Whether human or magical creature, everyone can live freely and happily in it.
No need to worry about being captured or killed one day.
I can't resolve the hatred of the past.
I just hope that I can allow the races that want to live a good life to live well in my territory."
He tilted his head slightly, raised his other free hand, gently pinched Ash's chin, and turned the boy's gentle and handsome face towards him.
Ash was stunned: "Do you still remember..." what I said.
Sigourney's dark red eyes looked earnestly into the clear light blue, she smiled, and said in a low and pleasant voice: "Let's make it happen together."
