The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan
Chapter 242 The afterglow of the past
Faced with Karasawa's question, Leon just pushed the wine poured out of his hand forward, and the transparent liquid swayed in the goblet with tiny lights, as clear as if it were just a glass of water.
There are not many colorless wines in today's velvet bars, and Kumel is one of them.
This means asking him to sit down and speak slowly.
From the time he traveled to today, Tang Ze would wake up on time in the Velvet Bar almost every night, even on days when he didn't have enough sleep. He hadn't dreamed for a long time.
As Leon said, his guests are not qualified to have sweet dreams.
In this world, Leon was the only person who could understand all of Tang Ze's weird words and could also pick up jokes. The two of them quickly became familiar with each other.
Tangze, who drank and drank in his dreams every day and talked to Leon many times, quickly understood his body language, suppressed his impatience, and sat down on the chair opposite.
"What exactly is the 'Holy Grail'... As a trickster, you know it very well, right?"
Rarely, Leon uses a name for the protagonist in the original P5 game.
"The false god Yaldabait is an evil god formed by the aggregation of human laziness, or in other words, an evil god that represents the aggregation of negativity in the collective subconscious of mankind." Tang Ze told the setting of the original work, thought about it, and added said, "But you said from the beginning that this is a world where the cognitive world and the real world have merged. Will Yaldabait still exist?"
Leon poured himself a glass of wine, propped up the bar, and cast his eyes towards the dim dance floor in the distance - it was the place where Karasawa's Persona operated.
Different from Gemini's guillotine, in Karasawa's bar, his mask summoning and synthesis are all completed on the dance floor. When the lights are turned on, what is shown is a high platform illuminated by spotlights and a dim crowd surrounded by longing figures.
Karasawa had initially doubted whether Lyon really lived in Velvet.
After all, as we all know, velvet assistants should normally be of the opposite sex...
But when he started his first persona operation and watched Leon pick up the persona book and summon and synthesize it freely, this doubt was dispelled.
The fake Igor does not have the power of Velvet to live in people at all. In the original work, in order to conceal his identity, he left the entire operation of the Book of Personality to the Gemini.
Being able to complete these operations independently, at least Leon did not lie to him about his identity. He was indeed Karasawa's velvet assistant.
"If, in the world of P5, the evil god formed by the collective subconsciousness of mankind is Aldabait, then what about in the world of Conan?" Leon only opened his mouth, and it gave Karasawa a chill down his spine. I feel, "The reason why the man-made false god is Aldabait is essentially because of human laziness and the biological instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, which makes the public tend to escape, give up thinking, and instead long for an infinite The will of God can decide everything on your behalf. So what kind of collective subconscious do you think will be formed based on the nature of this world?"
Tang Ze shook his back and shuddered a little.
As the ruling god, Ardabait was born like this in response to human nature, not that he chose to be like this.
But what if the background of the story is replaced by the world of Ke Xue...
I always feel that what was born should not be Aldabait, but something like the Cthulhu Evil God.
Guessing what he was thinking from Karasawa's expression, Leon narrowed his eyes and brought the topic back to the Holy Grail: "The 'Holy Grail' is actually the 'secret treasure' of the collective subconscious and the 'root of twisted desire' of human beings. He is a man-made god, not a real god. He will be destroyed and usurped. Even if someone actually dug out a piece of the Holy Grail, wouldn't it be surprising?"
"That's still weird!" Tang Ze protested, "Who can climb to the bottom of the subway and pick out the Holy Grail? How could a good Holy Grail break? Doesn't that mean that the Holy Grail has..."
Tangze's voice paused.
Leon's smile got bigger: "What are you afraid of? Go on, you have always been very brave."
"...has been broken." Tangze said the second half of the logical sentence, raised the wine glass in his hand and drank the herbal-flavored liquor in one gulp.
It's a bit scary to take a few sips to calm down the shock.
"As for what I know." Leon shook his glass of wine, and his golden eyes reflected a bright light on the liquid surface. "I do know something. I may know everything. But I am just the shadow of a dream. , I am just the eyes watching your progress, I am just the scale waiting for your decision... I only know the past, and all I can do is judge. It is you who really make the choice and walk out of the way. Don't be afraid, I am yours Assistant, I am your mirror, your companion and accomplice, I will not hurt you."
Having said this, the curve of his mouth tightened and he whispered: "To be precise... I really didn't do anything."
Seeing Leon's drooping look, Karasawa couldn't help but complain: "Why, you are also Elizabeth. You want to leave the room and start your own journey. You want to save the boy who sacrificed himself to save the world or something?"
"Pfft..." Leon, who was pouring wine into his mouth, choked when he said it. He coughed and wiped the corners of his mouth with a smile, "You know how to pick up the conversation..."
"I can't help it, you made the atmosphere so serious, and I'm not used to it." Tangze avoided the wine he sprayed out and sighed, "Don't talk in riddles here with a tone that might make me gawk. Let’s talk humanly, what’s going on with you?”
"It's nothing. I'm just feeling a little emotional." Leon rolled his eyelids and stopped keeping a tense expression. He also sighed, "Don't ask me. I've told you everything I can say. If there's anything I can What I knew but didn’t say was that I didn’t have the right to say it.”
"Okay, let's just think so." Tang Ze shook his head, feeling that Leon's hint was indeed in place. Maybe he didn't have the right to tell the truth, so he let the topic go and asked curiously, "Are you 'Trial', you said again, you are waiting for me to make a decision, so it seems that you are my examiner? No matter which side of the main plot it is, I have been advancing it seriously. How are my results so far? "
The "Judgment" Tarot is a very important Arcana, the one that will fundamentally change the plot.
This standard was one of the reasons why Karasawa speculated that Lyon would be "judged" at that time.
Karasawa himself has a perspective that is superior to everyone else. Except for Leon, who has this information like him, it is hard to imagine that anyone else can make a judgment and change the story.
Leon put down the half-glass of wine he wasted and gave Tangze a smile: "Didn't I already write you my score?"
"Oh? So, those coop comments are not you evaluating them, but you are evaluating me?" Tangze raised his eyebrows in surprise.
This is somewhat interesting... I have to go back and read those words again.
"That's true. You don't have to belittle yourself...you are a competent trickster and a competent guest." Leon raised his white-gloved hand and snapped his fingers, "So..."
