The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 138: A tragedy that repeats itself endlessly

The whole point of Frederic Melvin is for this nightmare with Justus.

As seen in nightmares.

From the very beginning, the student that Professor Gray was interested in was Justus... not Frederick, who reached the Silver Level at a young age.

Because from that time, Professor Gray already knew.

——Frederick Melvin will eventually be killed by himself.

So teaching him is pointless.

Murder Ingrid in front of Justus.

And the later murder of Frederick.

Everything is done to create an extremely real nightmare that can be mistaken for real...and this is to make Justus lose himself in the nightmare and confuse dreams and reality.

"Justus confused reality and dreams, and saw another possibility of 'Frederick' in his nightmare. As the story develops, the butterfly effect caused by Ingrid being rescued, 'Frederick''s fate still came to an end...and Justus was so furious that he turned to his trusted teacher, 'Grey Professor' Seti.

"He was 'sent to the past' by Seti. In other words, he thought he was in the past. But that was actually just the 'plot' of Frederick's nightmare... Justus entered a dream within a dream. .

"He killed Ingrid. Returning history to its 'correct' position, and still becoming an unbreakable shield, he came to the Coal Barrens to perform his mission with the living Frederick - —This is exactly what he expected to unfold."

From the very beginning, what Justus expected... was that when he came to the Cinder Barrens, he would not come to collect the corpses of his friends.

It is this "unwillingness to admit" that allows Professor Gray to confuse his reality with his dream.

But the longer he stayed in the Cinder Barrens.

The uneasiness lurking in Justus' subconscious became more and more obvious.

He gradually realized that he seemed to be dreaming. That's why the town suddenly became deserted.

But in fact, he was not the one who woke up.

But the "betrayer".

——While they were walking down the street, Frederick was suddenly killed.

Of course Justus was furious.

He will rush over and kill the attacker at all costs - even if that person is his other self.

"That's because Justus subconsciously realized that...maybe he was the one who killed Frederick."

And he has to fight with his "other self".

No matter what the outcome is, there will only be one person left in this unmanned world.

That's "Justus".

If a person dies in a dream, he will of course be resurrected on the surface.

He exists in Frederick’s nightmare within a dream, and can only wake up from the upper level——

The characteristic of this nightmare is "re-enactment".

Once you die, you will lose your memory [Replay].

——That is, a tragedy that repeats itself endlessly.

"Do you remember," Annan said to the delicious wind goose, "Nefertari said. In her nightmare, 'Frederick' died three times in total.

"The first time was when he was crushed to death by a building while saving Ingrid; the second time was when he was killed by another Justus on the street. What about the third time?"

Annan stared at the void in front of him and said slowly: "The third time, just after waking up from a dream within a dream.

"That is when Justus woke up again from the dream of the 'Dream Eater' Trissino Seti. That is, Ingrid did not die, and Frederic had just been killed. Timeline of killing.

"How would Justus make a decision when he lost his memory and returned to the beginning?"

"...He will know nothing and go back to the past again."

Delicious Wind Goose’s voice was trembling.

Going through the exact same cycle again.

Back to the Cinder Barrens again...

Just like the motto left by Justus.

[A brief moment of anger. Never-ending regret. 】

I am afraid that the Justus who "betrayed" Frederick is the one who truly realized everything from countless cycles...

That is, "The Enlightened One" Justus.

Realizing that this was just a nightmare, Justus recalled the first words of advice left by Frederick——

【Life is the prison of death...Death is the hymn of life. 】

This is the motto Frederick left for the Purifiers at the beginning of his nightmare.

To understand it literally, it means... when "life" comes to an end, "death" will break free from its cage. Its existence is to praise the "life" that imprisons itself.

So who are the survivors?

Justus.

Who is the deceased?

Frederick.

His meaning is simple - as long as Justus dies, "Frederick" will be reborn.

But Frederick's soul has been completely used to construct nightmares.

He cannot be resurrected.

Only the name "Frederick" was resurrected.

But unfortunately, Justus, who was confused between reality and dreams, did not hear this prompt.

In other words, he didn't care after hearing it.

The moment Justus saw Frederic's death in his nightmare and became furious, seeking strength to try to kill Ingrid and save Frederic... it had already caused Frederic to go deeper. tragedy.

Justus, the only "enlightened person", hid the fact that he had restored his memory. Ask Trissino to "go back in time".

He wants to kill Frederick in the dream.

Let Frederick be the [die] party.

Then the imprisoned self will be freed and given a new life——

This is the [exit] to the nightmare after Frederick’s death.

That is, [Kill Frederick].

But this exit was blocked.

By himself.

This "enlightened one" Justus has lost the most important piece of memory due to the nightmare nature of "re-enactment".

...that is, he was killed by another "Justus" countless times.

Why did Justus and Frederick suddenly enter the "deserted streets"?

Because Justus the Awakened came to the Cinder Barrens.

He is also Justus.

And he already knew that this was a dream.

So he wants to kill the false Frederick and free himself.

His own awakening became the last piece of the puzzle of the infinite loop paradox.

"...just like "Terror Cruise"."

Delicious Wind Goose finally understood everything.

This sent chills down my spine.

This is a scene... an extremely grand tragedy that can be repeated endlessly.

Frederick and Ingrid are just props on the field. ~IndoMTL.com~ This is a [one-man show].

The hero and the devil are basically the same person.

Annan said slowly: "Do you still remember?

"I told you before that the power of the idol wizard will follow the title. At that time, we thought...'Professor Wolf' Frederick would call himself this in order to steal the power of 'Professor Gray' . And we have learned that Professor Wolf is Professor Gray."

Why did Benjamin not give a similar answer when Annan asked Benjamin, "Is Professor Wolf stealing the power of the man in the mirror?" but gave an ambiguous acquiescence?

In fact, all the truth is already hidden in that sentence——

The person who stole the power of the man in the mirror was actually Professor Gray. But after Professor Gray stole the power of the "mirror"...

"Part of him" - the part that was "Professor Gray", woke up in Frederick's body and became Professor Wolf "Frederick"!

Why did Professor Gray suddenly lose the power of his elements?

Because the power of the elements was transferred to "Professor Wolf"!

Why did Professor Gray change his name to "The Bone Healer" and Professor Wolf became a believer in the tragedy writer?

Because the original purpose of Trissino Seti was to use the nightmare of the [mirror] attribute to separate the "Bone Healer" as the wizard and the "Professor Wolf" as the pope!

The reason why Professor Wolf became the mentor of werewolves.

Not for revenge.

But to actually improve the status of werewolves.

Because the tragedian himself is the werewolf **** - he is the pope of the tragedian, as is his duty.

“And this scene [The Tragedy of Infinite Reincarnation] was dedicated to the tragedian by Triscino Seti—directed and performed in order for the tragedian to help him and steal power from the future gods. A tragedy."
