Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today

"Good morning, dear Holmes!"

Perhaps to let her have a good rest, Holmes did not talk to her after returning to the store yesterday. He even appeared only once during the party, quietly playing a supporting role in the corner.

Seeing Fujimaru Ritsuka, Holmes closed the book and responded with a smile:

"Good morning. Did you rest well last night?"

"Almost, but I had a rare dream."

"Really?"

Knowing what Fujimaru Ritsuka's dream meant, Holmes raised his eyebrows slightly and quickly guessed that it was probably a dream related to Pest.

He didn't say much about it, but brought up another topic:

"How is your life in the box garden during this period?"

"Hmm..."

Hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't answer immediately, but held his chin and pondered:

"Life during this period is quite interesting. However, it seems that I have only learned a little bit about the situation in the box garden so far."

There are two reasons why she came to the box garden: one is that she was invited by the big guys to see if there is anything she can help with; the other is to investigate whether this world is suitable for Chaldea to move in.

And understanding the situation of the box garden is for the latter.

From the perspective of the environment alone, the box garden is obviously much stronger than the earth environment on their side, even if the entire Chaldea is moved here, there should be no problem.

But apart from that, her understanding of the box garden is still too shallow, so she can't make a decision easily.

For example, the origin of the box garden that Bai Yasha told her is still in a chaotic state. It is clear that there must be a big trouble hidden in it.

"Also, I originally thought that the purpose of those who invited me here was to hope that I would deal with the Demon King, but after fighting with Pest and the others, I always feel that this may not be the case."

From the experience of the community [No Name] and the situation of the Fire Dragon Birth Festival, the Demon King is undoubtedly an evil person who destroys peace and order and needs to be conquered.

It is for this reason that the box garden will set up class rulers, giving them the obligation and equal rights to protect the lower community and resist the invasion of the Demon King.

However, she does not think that conquering the Demon King will be the reason for those people to invite her to the box garden, because there are also many strong people in the box garden, and even strong people like Bai Yasha are willing to lower their status to come to the lower level and become a member of the class ruler who protects the lower community.

In other words, conquering the Demon King is not something that she and Chaldea must do, not to mention that this kind of thing is not within the scope of Chaldea's business.

Chaldea's mission is to save humanity and the world. Even if she defeats bad guys out of personal likes and dislikes, she will not refuse any power that can be used, whether it is good or bad, in the face of saving humanity.

"Defeat the Demon King?"

Holmes pondered for a moment and smiled at Fujimaru Ritsuka's remarks:

"Actually, if you think along this line, I don't think it is impossible. However, the demon kings who want to be defeated are not the same as the demon king like Pest."

"Not the same?"

Seeing Fujimaru Ritsuka blinking in confusion, Holmes smiled and said:

"Then let me explain a little. Have you heard of the Dawn of the Little Garden?"

"Yes, I know this."

The Dawn of the Little Garden refers to the period when the Little Garden world was just created not long ago, and many of the current rules have not yet been formed. Countless gods, Buddhas, and Shuras poured into the Little Garden to divide forces and establish order. A period of chaos.

"That's right."

Holmes nodded in affirmation, then turned a page of the book in his hand and read:

"At the same time, contrary to the order they created, all kinds of evils and corruption were born. Heaven and earth, day and night, good and evil, prosperity and decline, all the elements of the world from creation to destruction were filtered in the crucible and became the first disaster.'

I think the [First Disaster] recorded in the book is the real demon king in the world of the box garden that is worthy of those people's attention."

"And if nothing unexpected happens, the lady named Bai Yasha seems to have been such an existence - the final trial of mankind called 'Heaven's Movement Theory'."

"Bai Yasha? Heaven's Movement Theory? The Final Trial of Mankind?"

Needless to say, the Heaven's Movement Theory is a cosmological view of the ancients, believing that the earth is the center of the universe and all other stars revolve around the earth.

And the final trial of mankind, in simple terms, is a trial that appears to destroy mankind, and it must also be destroyed by humans themselves.

"Eh? Wait, isn't this...!?"

Hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka finally showed a surprised expression, and Holmes smiled and nodded:

"That's right."

"No matter how you look at it, the definition of the final trial of mankind is very similar to human evil."

Human evil refers to various disasters that destroy mankind. They are born from human civilization, and become stronger and stronger with the development of mankind, but they destroy civilization from the inside of society, and are like cancer cells.

But human evil is not evil that destroys mankind based on hostility, but evil that destroys mankind, and it is an existence that humans must overcome.

Finally, Fujimaru Ritsuka seemed to understand something and murmured:

"The real demon king born at the beginning of the box garden, the final trial of mankind... is it the human evil in the box garden world?"

If those people wanted her to deal with such a demon king, then there would be no problem. After all, she is also a professional in dealing with human evil.

She even became human evil herself (sad).

At this time, Fujimaru Ritsuka suddenly thought of something, looked at Holmes in confusion and said:

"... So, why do you know so many things?"

"Because of it."

Holmes shook the book in his hand, then looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka's speechless expression, and chuckled:

"But in fact, there seems to be no detailed record of the things about the dawn of the box garden, including the first demon king, the final trial of mankind, etc., and the relevant information is also very trivial, and it is necessary to integrate it according to the clues to get complete information."

"Fortunately, that lady Shiroyasha seems to be a strong person who has been active since the birth of the box garden, so the records about her are relatively detailed, and the other party's experience can be used as a clue to integrate the information."

"I see."

Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded as if he understood.

In short, only someone as smart as Holmes can connect all the fragmented information from a large number of books in such a short time, right?

Got it, it's not my problem, over.

However, at this moment, Holmes laughed again:

"Of course, this is just to continue thinking with your previous ideas, so as to make a more reasonable guess. It is best not to arbitrarily regard it as reality."

"And in my opinion, if the problem is returned to the original starting point... Forget it, maybe I said too much. This is just my immature speculation. Before there is more evidence, it is still..."

"Can't forget it!!"

Hearing this familiar riddle man's words, Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately raised his eyebrows and said dissatisfiedly:

"Since the previous judgments are also guesses, then it's okay to say another guess?!"

"Otherwise, I will take what you said before seriously?"
