[Comprehensive] Lying is to save the world

After leaving the hotel full of anti-magic poison, Leon and Maria were ready to part ways after a few words.Ushiromiya Kinzo, who is in charge of Maria's assessment this time, is waiting for her in the study on the large roof; and Beatrice herself, who is in charge of Leon's assessment, is waiting in the chapel. with him.

The road to the chapel is completely opposite to the road to the big house, so even if Leon is a little worried about what will happen to Maria if she goes alone, she can't go with Maria and can only hope that the Golden Witch will be successfully resurrected Kinzo is in a better mood, so don't embarrass Maria too much.

↑In fact, Leon is completely worried about it. Once the long-cherished wish of decades is realized, now Jinzang is so happy that he will not necessarily get angry if he climbs on him and pulls off his beard. He is worried that Maria will offend Jinzang Tibetan suffered embarrassment or something is completely overthinking.

It wasn't long before Leon and Maria were separated, and he hadn't gone far in the storm with his umbrella open. Arthur, who had been forced to recover his spiritual body since Warrior came back, appeared in front of Leon again. , "That Ushiromiya warrior is very strange."

The sound of footsteps ticking in the water stains stopped, and the boy holding the umbrella turned his head and asked his loyal knight, "What's wrong with the warrior? Is there anything on him worthy of your special appearance?" Is there something to tell?"

"Master, did you only notice the anti-magic toxin carried by Ushiromiya Sento, but didn't you notice his other abnormality?" Arthur said very seriously, "For Ushiromiya Sento, magic is "no existing."

Leon had a faint realization in his heart, "You mean... magic doesn't work on Warren? So even if I forced him to believe in the existence of magic just now, I couldn't show him magic?"

"That's right, because the subconscious mind has already arbitrarily decided that 'magic does not exist', so the 'non-existent magic' cannot affect Ushiromiya Sento anyway." Arthur explained with a worried face, " If you want to use numerical values ​​to express Ushiromiya Sento's anti-magic resistance, it is anti-magic endlessnine, even epic-level magic can't shake him at all..."

"As a knight, saying this sentence makes me feel ashamed of my dereliction of duty, but I have to admit that my sword cannot touch him."

After Arthur lowered his head in disappointment, Leon smiled and rubbed the opponent's golden hair, "What does it matter, there is no need to fight here, even if you can't touch..."

"No, Master, even if there may not be a battle, you'd better be careful." Arthur insisted, "Neither my sword nor your magic can touch Ushiromiya Sento, even if you come out Even the presiding judge, Dranor, just disappeared for a moment... In front of Ushiromiya Sento, you are just an ordinary person with ordinary physical ability, and you may be in danger at any time."

Leon smiled nonchalantly, "You worry too much, how could Warren-kun and I have a conflict. It's impossible, you saw when he was worried about me and Maria just now, right? Don't Not to mention, Zhanren still cares about the people he agrees with."

"That's because you are now 'Ushiromiya Rigo'." Arthur looked into Leon's red eyes and insisted with burning eyes, "If the relationship between you and the Golden Witch is destroyed by Ushiromiya Warren I see, if you're just a "theatre spectator" who came to watch his life and it's known...it's hard to say whether the warrior who hates the witch will hate you as well, and then retaliate."

Even though Arthur got to this point, Leon still replied casually without a sense of crisis: "I am a guest who came to visit the resurrection ceremony anyway, so there is no danger at all... Even if there is an emergency, Beatrice, who is the host of the banquet, will also—”

Halfway through the conversation, Leon himself suddenly realized that something was wrong. Ushiromiya Sento is a special existence with infinite anti-magic and anti-magic powers, and no magic power can interfere with Youdai. Gong Zhanren, even the golden witch, Queen Adolche, who is beyond Leon's reach, is just a fictitious phantom to him——

In other words, even Beatrice's magic couldn't interfere with Battler!

Then a contradiction arises... Since the magic of the Golden Witch doesn't work on Zhanren, why is Zhanren still imprisoned in this reincarnation that repeats the living sacrifice ceremony infinitely, unable to break free?

If magic and witches didn't exist in the first place... the torture that Warrior went through shouldn't have existed at all, right?

Seeing Leon's serious expression finally, Arthur finally relaxed a little from his anxious expression before, "Now you understand how unreasonable this game is? If you just treat it as a If we look at it as a ceremony where the witch must win... there will be dangers that will catch us off guard."

"But what does this have to do with the need to be careful with Sento-kun?" Even after the topic has progressed to this point, Leon doesn't think that any conflicts may break out between Sento-kun and him, "If you believe in witches, Mari Aya's belief in Beatrice is much deeper than mine, right? Even so, I haven't seen Warrior hate Maria as well."

Arthur sighed, and his gentle blue eyes were full of helplessness, "Master, you still...well, let me discuss my other speculation with you."

"What if, from the very beginning, this is not the ritual of the witch's resurrection, but the world created by Ushiromiya Sento's explanation to excuse himself?"

Facing Leon's astonished and shocked eyes, Arthur continued to say without giving an inch: "From the very beginning, you thought that everyone died in the 'witch's resurrection sacrifice', because Sento Ushiromiya did not recognize the existence of the witch. The living sacrifice ceremony will continue forever... But what if we overthrow this idea from the root and regard this continuous death incident on the isolated island as a murder incident?"

"Samurai Ushiromiya killed everyone except himself, and then began to fantasize that he was not the murderer, and kept assuming various bizarre ways of death to justify the fact of killing himself... Such a possibility also exists, right? ?”

"If you follow this way of thinking... it can be said that Ushiromiya Warren is the god who created this world, and even the witch is just a pawn used by him to exonerate the crime. In this way, Warren's extraordinary The magic defense can also be explained, as the god who created the excuses of witches and magic to kill people, how could it be possible for a warrior who has confirmed that he 'lived to the end' to die from the illusory witch's sacrifice..."

Committed a murder case on his own, and imagined that the victims were all killed by the witch as a living sacrifice... Because he is the murderer, the phantom of the witch can never hurt him?

Such a malicious possibility, just thinking about it made Leon shudder, and a series of goosebumps appeared on his back.

"Maybe the witch invited you here with no malicious intentions, but if it is true as I speculate, Mrs. Beatrice doesn't know that she can't even protect you, because for Ushiromiya Sento, the witch It's a "fantasy that doesn't exist." Arthur paused, then added in a low mood, "Of course, I'm also a fantasy, so I can't protect you..."

"On this isolated island sealed off by the storm, apart from the murderer Ushiromiya Sento, you are the only real living person left..."

There is no need for the worried knight to say the following words. If the fact that "Ushiromiya Sento is the murderer who killed other people" is true, then what does it mean... The moment Leon understood this possibility, I had already thought about it with a cold heart.

He will be killed by Sento Ushiromiya, and then, like other undead wandering on this island, he will be caught in the cycle of a closed loop, repeating infinitely in Sento's mind that 'everyone was killed by a witch of' this delusion.

"It seems that I have to ask Beatrice for an explanation when I see her again." Leon said with a wry smile, "If this is the case, it would be too scary..."

With a heavy heart, Leon continued to hold an umbrella and walk slowly in the rainy night, but compared to the ease of leaving this world when he was about to meet Beatrice, Leon who was silent at this time was in a heavy heart abnormal.

"Welcome to the concubine's paradise, Leon—" Beatrice, who was wearing a modern costume and combing a short golden ponytail, gave Leon a warm hug at the door of the chapel. Beatrice suddenly changed into a modern dress, and it really looked like a Nordic girl's hearty enthusiasm.

But as soon as the witch who is fond of funny jokes opened her mouth, this kind of enigmatic good impression immediately collapsed like a pinch of salt into the water, "Gee~ scare scare—how is it? Is Leon satisfied with the concubine's game?" ? The script of resurrecting people infinitely and killing them infinitely, no one but me, Beatrice, could have done it? Hahahahaha!"

Unlike the witch who stood in the rainy night without getting wet by the storm, and all the raindrops seemed to deliberately avoid her posture, Leon, who was no longer in the mood to continue to use the umbrella, just threw it away and accompanied him The long-handled umbrella came all the way, and the downpour still drenched him into a drenched chicken, "Hey, Beato, can you let me know the truth?"

"Quack? Leon, what are you talking about... Isn't this the time to cheer and applaud! The concubine has been resurrected... and is about to bless you!!"

Just like the distinct Chu River and Han Realm, the witch under the eaves of the chapel exudes the heartfelt joy of resurrection with wild laughter, while Leon, who is isolated in the heavy rain, hangs his head and is not infected by the witch's joy at all. , just lowered his head and repeated in a low voice, unable to see his expression clearly: "Beardo, can you let me know the truth about what happened on Liuxuan Island?"

The rushing storm was getting bigger and bigger, sometimes accompanied by thunderous thunder.Bright blue lightning pierced the dark night sky, and also pierced the witch's laughter.

The witch of gold and infinity, Beatrice, who can both bestow blessings on others and trap them in infinite samsara, suddenly lost her ecstatic expression, like a doll with no expression after taking off the smiling face mask , looking at Leon quietly, and asked: "Even if you don't ask each other with words, I will tell you honestly. Don't worry, the truth of Liuxuan Island is not what you think about."

Leon followed the expressionless witch into the dark chapel. As soon as he entered, he heard Beatrice vigorously stamped the cane in his hand, making a thunderous sound in the quiet rainy night.

The great witch Beatrice, who bears the name of gold and infinity, with a majestic expression that matches her title, said loudly into the empty darkness: "My concubine is the witch of gold and infinity, the Ushiromiya family The consultant alchemist and the lord of Liuxuan Island! This concubine hereby declares that the family governor of the Ushiromiya family will be the lord, the ten tons of gold that I donated to Kinzo, the ownership of Liuxuan Island... and the gold The name of the Witch is all transferred and inherited by Leon!"

Accompanied by the majestic announcement of the witch, thousands of golden lights suddenly flashed in the empty and dark chapel.A golden halo rises up and illuminates the entire chapel together.After all these light sources emitting golden light floated to the roof of the chapel, Leon looked up and realized that what the witch used as the light source turned out to be countless pure gold nuggets!

No...pure gold nuggets can't shine. These nuggets that float in the air and emit golden brilliance are undoubtedly gold nuggets full of magic power!

"These ten tons of gold are the crystallization of my concubine's body when he was full of magic power. When he was young, Jin Zang borrowed the gold condensed by his concubine's magic power to rebuild the Ushiromiya family." Beatrice remained calm until she was lonely. With a look on his face, he explained to Leon lightly, "These are all yours, whether it's alchemy, gold, huge magic power, or the concubine's title of Golden Witch... it's all yours." .”

"Remember the original agreement? You will witness the resurrection ceremony of the concubine. After the concubine completes the resurrection ceremony, I will give you some small gifts... These are all the concubine will give you. After the magic power of gold is stored in your body, you can leave at will even without the help of your concubine. Therefore, after the ceremony, Lord Leon can decide on your own whether you want to leave or stay in the golden town of your concubine. I asked my concubine what she meant."

Although Beatrice likes randomness and random numbers, all the promises from the mouth of the infinite witch are absolutely true.Now that she had promised to transfer all of this to Leon, of course the arbitrary Witch-sama didn't care whether Leon wanted it or not, and directly handed it over to Leon.

Thousands of gold nuggets shine on the top of Leon's head. Even if Leon doesn't deliberately feel it, he can clearly perceive the huge magic power filled in his body. It is that even the magic power provided to him by the Great Sacred Book of Heaven has become insignificant. It seems that even the sky can be pierced, and the earth can be torn apart by a powerful force.

But after suddenly gaining half of Beatrice's magical power and the title of Golden Witch, Leon, who was hit by a big pie falling from the sky, couldn't see the slightest hint of joy, but looked at Beatrice with a more serious expression. Li Qie asked for the third time: "What is the truth on Liuxuan Island?"

"'Even if you don't ask me with words, I will tell you the truth"... I am repeating the same words." Beatrice laughed at herself, then waved her hand. From the pipe, which was much smaller than before, dozens of golden butterflies came out and transformed into a phantom with the same appearance as Beatrice.

But even without Beatrice herself standing by for comparison, anyone can see that it is just a phantom without thinking and emotion, a doll that simply carries memories but does not know how to think, "because the related The matter is too far involved, and I don't bother to explain it to you here, so I leave a clone for you to ask at will. Don't worry, this guy knows everything I know, and he knows everything without saying anything. No falsification."

"Okay, Leon-sama's assessment has also ended. Congratulations for successfully inheriting the magic power of the Ushiromiya family and the Golden Witch. Next, it's time for the concubine to leave this place to give the warrior assessment."

"And the truth that you are longing for... is guaranteed by the red truth, [Udai Palace Warren is not a prisoner who killed his relatives]. Other than that, you can ask the concubine's clone by yourself."

After passing by the silent Leon, Beatrice sighed softly while keeping her back to each other.

"Whether this is the blessing of the concubine or the curse of the witch... For you, this may be a difficult answer, but I still hope that you, who have nothing to do with the Ushiromiya family, can bear these burdens." A crime that has nothing to do with you, inheriting the name of Ushiro-miya—"
