The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 219: Coward
The punishment of "action" in Orpheus' poem actually corresponds to "gluttony". The essence of the sin of gluttony is the desire for comfort and pleasure, the lack of progress, the waste of what one already has, and the excessive indulgence in something or something.
As the prince of Denisoya, he has long been aware of the corruption of this country. But he was obsessed with music and devoted all his talents to music... and when the country needed him most, he chose to board the treasure ship Silver, forget all his worries, and go on a happy world trip.
And his nightmare forces him to face up to his talents and responsibilities - he must become a king and give up his favorite way of music in order to save the world. Otherwise, he alone would not be able to fight against this hollow and cold world.
...If you put it this way.
The corresponding word for Ingrid should be "jealousy". Jealousy of love, jealousy of those favored by fate - such as Annan. It is somewhere between greed and arrogance... craving what others have, yet despising others like a god.
She was sentenced to "thinking" as a punishment, which was to make her calm down and face what she had. If she could maintain normal thinking ability from the beginning, patiently communicate with the Demon King, and gradually gain his trust over a long period of time... then she might not necessarily fall into that desperate situation.
It's even possible to get real "love".
Annan told them about their experiences in the nightmare and his speculations.
He concluded:
"This is not so much a punishment, but a trap... I think this is a sacred trial. It is a make-up lesson for students who are partial to subjects, to make up for everyone's shortcomings."
"What Orpheus did is, in a sense, close to the miracles that Yavon performed in the past."
Zhi Ji praised: "And Isaac saved an apocalyptic world that was about to degenerate into **** with his own strength. Even if he is the savior, there is no problem...
"It's not so much that you got the fragments of truth from the nightmare, it's better to say that this nightmare "truthfully reported" what you did and "truthfully reported" to the fog world. With your own merits, you naturally became The God of the Future——
"We need people like you!"
"...Speaking of which," Lucia, who had been hiding next to Chiron, suddenly whispered, "In the future I saw before...if Euphemia enters a nightmare, then Isaac You and Offishi will never come back."
"Huh?"
Eufemia was stunned for a moment: "Why?"
"I don't know, because I didn't even see what it looked like in the nightmare..."
"I probably know why."
Annan was thoughtful.
He has roughly figured out the nature of this nightmare. It's just a pity that if he had guessed it before leaving this nightmare, he might have received more rewards...
"It's because of space occupation."
The faceless poet on the side suddenly said: "I heard what you said before, in fact, the distribution of those nightmares is a bit far-fetched.
"The nightmare of being sealed in an iceberg and unable to move seems to be very suitable to make an active and melancholy poet like Orpheus despair; Isaac is also suitable to enter a world full of light, and also full of fire. . And Ingrid, who is imprisoned in a black coffin, is thrown into the world of the prairie, or the world of light that must be filled with love to pass, it can also make her fall into despair."
"Yes."
Annan nodded: "To put it simply, these worlds are not tailor-made for people. Instead, when people enter, they are assigned to different worlds based on their own personality traits.
"Except for the world that represents fire, which can accommodate multiple people, the other worlds can only accommodate one person at the same time.
"According to what I know about Euphemia...she once forgot her name and lived her life as another person completely. Neither her identity nor her name was her own anymore, and this is why It's a kind of 'jealousy'. A stronger jealousy than Ingrid.
"However, Ingrid entered the nightmare earlier than anyone else - after this position is occupied, it will be postponed..."
Annan said and turned his attention to Euphemia.
He means: "Can I say the next part"?
Euphemia hesitated for a moment, but nodded.
"If only Orpheus and Arthur change... I will soon be unable to keep up."
She whispered: "Please tell me everything you want to say. I also plan to face this past. And... I actually want to know what other problems I have."
"The answer is - you will occupy the nightmare where Orpheus is. Because the mission you escaped is even less worthy of escaping than Orpheus."
Annan replied: "You yourself have said that...the Melvin family is burdened with the 'curse of the living body'. If you are sent for marriage, the curse of the living body can be eliminated. This is tantamount to saving a life." Life.
"You don't want to marry Old Crow - or, in other words, you are simply rebellious and don't want to follow the family's wishes. But in fact, you are not the only one who was sent to marry.
"You don't just 'don't want to marry', otherwise you could have exchanged this 'gift' for another of your kind. This means saving a soul that yearns for freedom... But you didn't. You didn't Give up this spot, because whatever comes into your hands is yours.
"You actually don't want to get married...but you want to escape from this family and gain freedom. So you ask your best friend to marry Noah for you - because her life span is approaching and she doesn't want to die in front of her parents. So she readily accepted it.
"But, generally speaking... isn't it because your life is approaching that you want to spend more time with your parents without any regrets?"
Hearing Annan's words, Euphemia couldn't help but tremble.
That is the ugliness deep inside oneself, the fear of being forcibly pulled out and exposed to the sun.
But she just closed her eyes and tried to shut her mouth that subconsciously wanted to refute, defend, and make excuses.
Because she actually realized this subconsciously~IndoMTL.com~
"Lily Rasputin didn't 'just' want to leave Winter. But when she saw her friend's desire for freedom, she tenderly decided to fulfill her friend's wish, so she made this white lie.
"Euphemia was originally a fighter against the family tradition, and there is a reason why you were chosen as the marriage partner. In the end, you didn't even have time to lift the 'living curse', so you fled the family in a hurry, without stopping for a moment... …
"Of course you want to stagger the time of marrying Lily and make the identity-swapping drama more reasonable. But isn't it because you are worried that Lily will suddenly regret it, so you run away overnight so that she can't regret it?
"——This is an act of betrayal. Because you cannot face up to your own responsibilities, let alone the consequences of your actions.
"If you also enter this nightmare, the nightmare where Orpheus is located will be your burial place. And Orpheus may enter the world where Isaac is...because he is also the same He is a lazy person."
"...Yes. You are right..."
Eufemia responded softly: "I am just a coward.
"Like a coward who abandoned his friends and ran away when being attacked by a frost beast."
