Super Dimensional Wizard

Chapter 3505: Blurred Image

However, it is also because Ghost Rider’s attitude towards Bubbles is too friendly.

 The perspective that allows Bubble to view Ghost Rider has a filter, which is not objective enough.

In Bubble's eyes, Ghost Rider is a good and gentle person; but in the eyes of others, it may be another answer.

"What about you?" Gleipnir looked at Edward: "You have been talking about Bubble's perspective. I want to know from your perspective, what kind of person is the Ghost Rider?"

This time, Edward was completely silent before he said, "I have had too little exposure to Ghost Rider, so it's hard for me to evaluate it. If I had to say it, I think Ghost Rider feels a bit... vague to me. "

 “Blurry?” Gleipnir did not expect Edward to give such a strange answer: “Why is it blurry? Where is it blurry?”

Edward shrugged: "I don't know either. I just feel that Ghost Rider is not very real in my eyes, as if there is a layer of veil behind it, and I can't see clearly clearly."

As for why he had this idea, Edward thought about it carefully and felt that it was most likely because he had seen the Ghost Rider too few times.

 In hundreds of years, Edward has only seen it from a distance a few times.

The only time he had close contact was when he was taken to the castle by Bubble. Ghost Rider registered his role and asked him a few questions up close.

But even that close encounter seemed vague to Edward.

 He has never seen the true face of Ghost Rider.

Ghost Rider has been wearing the outer shell of his knight's armor, and his helmet is also tightly worn. His voice comes out of the helmet, and it has a ringing echo.

 Not quite true.

 It is like the sound quality of a gramophone, full of ancient and cold inorganic sounds.

 In Edward's own memories, he would always secretly guess: Is there really a soul under that exquisite-looking knight's armor?

　　 Could the so-called Ghost Rider be just a gramophone?

 Or, just a puppet with strings.

 In fact, there is no Ghost Rider at all, is everything just their fantasy? Or is Ghost Rider actually the mastermind behind a secret place?

"However, this is probably just because I haven't had much contact with Ghost Rider, so I have a sense of isolation." Edward: "As for Bubbles, who has been exposed to Ghost Riders all year round, I feel that even though Bubbles will be interested in Ghost Riders, There is a filter, but its answer may be more like a normal person’s perspective.”

“It is precisely for this reason that I chose to talk about the perspective of bubbles first.”

Gleipnir nodded slightly, she probably...understood.

 The reason why Edward felt that the Ghost Rider was vague was because he had never seen "it" with his own eyes. The so-called knight's armor seemed false to him.

If he could see the essence of Ghost Rider, even if it was just an empty soul, he might not find Ghost Rider vague.

　To put it bluntly, this is probably a kind of... rigor of Edward as a wizard?

Grapnir thought for a while and continued: "What about other people? Apart from you and Bubbles, how do other people view Ghost Rider?"

"Others..." Edward murmured in a low voice: "I don't know much about this. After all, we are all in our own roles. Except for slandering the master when talking to ourselves, we must do it at other times. Follow the character’s behavioral logic.”

 So, with Edward’s identity and the identities of other characters, it is impossible for them to get together and openly talk about the Lord of the Secret Place. This is disrespectful and inconsistent with the character.

"Although we haven't talked about Ghost Rider, I can probably guess from their eyes that they are afraid of and disgusted with Ghost Rider."

 Hate the Ghost Rider, Edward can understand. Because the Ghost Rider doesn't seem to like the "Spiritual Transformation Ritual", and will even destroy the "Spiritual Transformation Ritual" that others have managed to trick, which also leads to their dislike of the Ghost Rider.

 But... Edward doesn't quite understand this emotion of fear.

"Anyway, I'm not too afraid of Ghost Rider." Edward said at this time, he made a small guess: "Maybe it's because I'm close to Bubbles and Ghost Rider doesn't care about me? He didn’t do anything bad to me.”

 To sum up, it is still the same sentence, I see less, so it is difficult to generate other emotions.

 After listening to Edward's story, Gleipnir felt like he had just listened to a bunch of nonsense. I originally wanted to build an image of Ghost Rider from Edward's narration to facilitate future contact.

 But after listening to it, the image of Ghost Rider became more blurry and mysterious.

Gleipnir couldn't complain in front of Edward, so he just sighed a few words in the psychic belt.

 Luigi expressed sympathy for her.

Laplace was as cold as ever and did not speak.

 Steward Fan echoed, but did not express too much.

 Only Angel, after thinking for a moment, said: "I think Edward gave a very important clue."

Gleipnir said "Huh" and looked at Angel.

Angel: "Although Edward has always emphasized that in the Knight's Castle, he needs to play his own role and behave in a manner consistent with his personality. But after putting aside this superficial appearance and looking deeper, Edward actually wants to live in the castle."

 “The so-called life cannot escape contact in all aspects.”

Angor himself is a noble young master, so if he were asked to take on the role, he would naturally take on the role of the master of the castle.

 As the owner of the castle, even if he has a high status, he still needs to be in contact with people in all aspects of his life.

 Otherwise, what’s the point of having a lot of servants?

 The reason is naturally because there are many things that are inconvenient for the master to do and require servants to take over.

From Edward's perspective, he has stayed in the castle for hundreds of years, but has only seen the owner up close. Other times, he has only seen him from a distance, no more than ten fingers away.

This is really too little.

 Ghost Rider hardly seems to be living a normal life in the castle.

Angor: "A character who does not have a normal life. He appears in the castle, and something is obviously not right."

Grapnir pondered for a moment: "Ghost Rider, it is true that there are too few appearances, which is not right. But this is not an important clue, right?"

Angor didn’t answer and asked instead: “What do you think is the reason why Ghost Rider rarely appears?”

Gleipnir thought for a while, with some vague guesses in his mind. Angel didn't wait for Greipnir to answer, so he answered to himself: "If you look at it from my perspective, the Ghost Rider rarely appears, maybe because... he is not actually in the castle."

 Hearing this answer, everyone in the soul belt moved slightly and had their own thoughts.

Anger: "We can think of the Knight's Castle as a copy of Wonderland, and the owner of the castle, the Ghost Rider, is a character played by the player."

“The reason why he often doesn’t show up is because the player controlling Ghost Rider is not online.”

  This metaphor by Angel is very bold, and it is not supported by much evidence. But inexplicably, Gleipnir felt that it made sense.

　To use the metaphor of Yume No Kyouhara, Ghost Rider is often offline. Because of this, Edward rarely saw him for decades.

Grapnir: "According to what you said, if he is really not online all year round, then why does he respond every time when Bubble goes to him?"

Angel: "Just because he's not online doesn't mean he doesn't know someone is looking for him. Maybe he has set a background trigger device for his character. As long as someone enters his room, or someone enters the 'reaction' range of the Ghost Rider character , will remind him.”

Just like when a wizard is doing research, although he is focused on research, in order to avoid missing some important events, he will still make some early warning arrangements outside the laboratory. When something important happens, outsiders can trigger these arrangements in advance to contact the wizard who is doing the experiment.

In the same way, Ghost Rider may have made a layout for his character. As long as someone triggers it, he will sense it and respond online in time.

Grapnir: "In other words, you think that the Ghost Rider is actually controlled by someone. And this person may not be in the Knight's Castle."

Angor nodded: "Yes, the body of the Ghost Rider may be roaming in the world of ritual, or..."

“…not in the ethereal world at all, but using something like a mirror window to control the Ghost Rider outside the ethereal world.”

The two guesses given by Angor made Gleipnir feel the same as before: although they were a bit outrageous, they somehow felt reasonable.

Looking at it this way, the clues given by Edward seem to be really important. Analyzing and analyzing, the analysis goes beyond the Yi world...

However, Gleipnir was not one to dance with his emotions, and he quickly regained his senses.

Even though Angor's guess makes some sense, there is no evidence to support it. It is more of a speculation and speculation.

Even if it is true, it will not be of much help to Gleipnir when he later wants to contact Ghost Rider.

"I'd better think about it myself." Gleipnir said in the psychic belt: "By the way, do you have anything to ask Edward? If not, we should discuss his subsequent placement. ”

 Luigi said no.

Laplace and Butler Fan remained silent.

Angor thought for a while and said in his mind: "I'm still a little curious about the Knight's Castle. Let me ask him a few questions."

After a pause, Angel raised his head and looked at Edward opposite.

 “What do you think of Knight’s Castle?”

 Edward was stunned: "Huh?"

Angor: "In your eyes, what does the Knight's Castle look like? Do you have any doubts or... guesses about your need to role-play in the Knight's Castle?"

Angel is actually very curious as to why the Knight’s Castle requires role-playing. Is there some unknown underlying logic here, or is it simply a bad taste of the creator?

 Because Angel was a spectator watching the fire from the other side, although his evaluation was objective, it was not true enough. He wanted to know, as a former player in the game, how did Edward view this drama that lasted for hundreds of years?

Facing Angel's question, Edward's reaction was much slower this time, perhaps because he had to think or prepare his words.

 After waiting for almost five minutes, Edward frowned and said slowly: "Let me first tell you what I think about the Knight's Castle."

“The Knight’s Castle seems strange to me. Although it looks like a normal space, there are always more things here for no reason.”

Angor: “Something more?”

Edward nodded: "It's those ritual sacrifices. They seemed to appear out of thin air, without any warning, and just appeared in the knight's castle or in the surrounding forest."

 Sacrifice appeared out of thin air?

 Everyone's expressions showed doubts. Before, they were only paying attention to the people in the Knight's Castle and had not thought about the issue of sacrifices. But if you think about it carefully, isn't it because of the sacrifice that Hilda was killed in the Knight's Castle?

 Sacrifice may be a bright line in the knight's castle.

"Did it really appear out of thin air?" It was Gleipnir who spoke. Originally, she was still thinking about the Ghost Rider, but Edward's answer made her too curious and couldn't help but interrupt.

Edward: "Yes, they appeared out of thin air. Moreover, these sacrifices seem to recognize people, and will take on different forms in the hands of different people."

Gleipnir: "???"

Edward looked at Angel: "Didn't Mr. Angel ask me what I think about role-playing? My opinion is that role-playing may be related to these strange sacrifices."

“Because, the more our role-playing matches our personality, the more sacrifices will appear around us. Moreover, the style of the sacrifices is also closely related to our personality.”

"For example, because I often dress up Bubbles, I also research various wigs and dyes in private, which are in line with my role as a makeup artist. Therefore, in my room, I was born There were at least ten sacrifices, including combs, mirrors, hair, scissors, etc.”

 Not only Edward, but also Bubbles.

Paopao was also very successful in playing the role of the eldest lady. After all, as a eldest lady, anything you do is normal and is considered acting. Therefore, sitting, lying and walking with bubbles are all included in the performance.

 For this reason, Bubble has more sacrifices. There are at least thirty more sacrifices in its room.

 Even, Edward witnessed the birth of the Bubble Sacrifice with his own eyes.

That was when he was styling Bubbles, and a bright red hairpin suddenly appeared directly on Bubbles' wig...

This hairpin is exactly a kind of sacrifice.

But Pao Pao personally doesn't pay much attention to things like sacrifices, because sacrifices are different in everyone's hands, and the style of the sacrifice is related to the character's personality.

 The character design of Paopao highlights a "big lady", and therefore there are many female products as sacrifices.

 This is simply a great shame for Pao Pao, who talks about being “male” every day.

 So, Paopao simply locked all the sacrifices in the cabinet, out of sight and out of mind.
