The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 36: The Forgotten Fifth Day
Issac's words shocked Annan.
He even began to reflect - I have been on this extraordinary road for so long, have I changed since the beginning?
Annan retrieved all his memories after coming to this world.
If you compare it a little, Annan when he first landed at Frozen Water Port... Annan today has indeed changed to a considerable extent.
At that time, Annan had no ties to the world. There is no purpose or pursuit, and the rule of conduct is just for pleasure. There is no anger towards the enemy, and naturally there is no pity at all.
Of course, he is still not as unscrupulous as "Black Annan".
Theoretically, it should have been fifteen years since Annan came to this world, but he only has a memory of just half a year.
The previous "Annan" had spent more than ten years in the deep and cold darkness. The cold winter nights, when I couldn't feel the joy and happiness, brewed extremely deep dark wisdom.
That is exactly the kind of insight Annan can have only after he has a deep enough understanding of the people, objects, history and mysteries of this world. When he fully understands the world and his own value and weight, mundane things can no longer constrain his actions.
——Even a mere mortal can have the courage and ability to murder gods.
That is something that only Annan, who has spent more than ten years in this world, can do. Even today's Annan is actually still not as good as Black Annan who was able to chat and laugh with the righteous gods at his peak.
But even so.
Now Annan has been completely changed.
It was while breaking through these many "mirrors" that Annan continued to confirm his inner desires.
Just like a child thinking from the bottom of his heart, "I will never become such an adult in the future", "If I have children, I will never treat them like this", "I will never want to live like this for the rest of my life."
Not only the desire directed at a certain person or a certain goal can be regarded as "desire".
The rejection of not wanting to reach that goal can also be regarded as a strong desire.
——I don’t want to be like them.
Because he is too weak, Don Juan Geraint has no power to decide his own destiny. He is the mirror that reflects the first light, giving Annan the desire to become stronger.
The light of the first ray is the simplest, powerful and bright light.
Dream Stealer Denton simply gave up hope and chose to escape his destiny because he had experienced too many failures. He is the mirror that reflects the second light, allowing Annan to obtain the "Heart of Sisyphus" and awaken the will to win that never gives up.
The light of the second ray is the light of hope that never fades and is always new
Because Henry VIII had not felt the love from others since his birth, he chose to spend his life to avenge the mission he had carried. He is the third mirror that makes Annan start to cherish the people in front of him... face up to the love others have for him and give back.
The light of the third ray is the light that never burns out in the eyes of the lover.
Because he believes that his value and ability are higher than anyone else in the world, Nicholas, the demon dragon who despises the entire world and thinks he is the king of the world - he is the fourth mirror.
Like Annan, he also lost part of his memory and did not have the dark will of his old self. However, he did not go on the right path like Annan, but went on a more twisted path. This made Annan realize that he was also an arrogant person... He was able to reach this point not just because "Black Annan" cut himself off. This also strengthened his belief that "justice is never late."
The light of the fourth ray is the phantom light reflected in the eyes when the physical body crosses the world. It is the light of "protection".
Because of the clear realization that the world will eventually be destroyed, Vladimir the Winter Defiant gave up waiting for the brave man who "just might save the world", and instead chose to turn the world into his own food.
He will personally devour this world before it is eaten by worms... This anti-civilization gesture is the Mirror of the Sixth Light. Annan clearly saw the ugly posture of the "selfish person" in him.
No matter how much power Vladimir possesses, he will only use it to continue to oppress others. He will never use it to help others. He even disdains "dictatorship" power... because he does not know how to use it. Give half of your love and attention to others, all in order to make yourself stronger.
Annan vowed never to be like him.
His power will eventually be used for the sake of others.
The essence of the sixth ray of light is that "things end with one end and have a beginning." It is the light of civilization that is constantly splitting and coming together, but always in the same collective...
"I did."
Annan answered very clearly: "I am completely different from the person I was at the beginning."
After sorting through this, he realized that his desire was already so bright...
He is extremely eager to become a powerful person who never admits defeat, has love in his heart, protects and teaches others... and fights for the continuation of civilization.
This has become completely different from the innocent child at the beginning.
Annan is even convinced that even if he does not know any advancement rituals for the gold level, his bright and pure desire alone is enough to advance to the gold level!
"...It's just a little lacking."
Annan pursed his lips.
His fifth mirror was Bernardino, the spiritual monk who was defeated by him in advance.
If we follow the normal crusade process, Annan should have enough understanding of the Spirit-bearing Monk. However, Chengling Monk realized his identity as the Egg Sheath of the Fifth Light, so he came to Annan himself before he captured Nicholas II.
At that time, Bernardino, the Spirit-bearing Monk, had already climbed into the Black Tower... and even destroyed the entire Black Tower, turning himself into the Philosopher's Stone. And the master of Hugo Tower is also burning his life to fight with him.
At that time, Annan had no time to explore what exactly Bernardino was carrying. He could only vaguely realize that his restraint on the spirit body and his free rein on the players seemed to form a mirror image.
However, after defeating Vladimir, Annan realized that there seemed to be more to the truth.
The fifth ray of the sun is the light of the world reflected in the pupils. It symbolizes the world seen in everyone's eyes, which is the light of colorful "colors".
The desire that Annan holds and obtains from the other five mirrors is enough to elevate him to gold... but Annan thinks this is not perfect.
He needs to know Bernardino better before he can rise to perfection.
"Don't worry, Annan."
Isaac realized what Annan was thinking. He leaned down and whispered: "From Bernardino's nightmare, you will learn everything you want to know."
His tone was very gentle, as if he was extremely patient with the children of his favorite relatives. It was completely different from his admonishing attitude towards Husky and Thirteen Incense: "Your Excellency Hugo has removed the curse from this nightmare. Net...and I will also watch over you outside the nightmare~IndoMTL.com~to add many benefits to your adventure in the nightmare.
"I have brought the materials needed for the ritual. After their affairs are dealt with, we can find a quiet and safe place to enter the nightmare."
"Then why not stay at the Black Tower in the Zedi."
Annan smiled: "I think it's very safe here...after all, this is a place that I personally saved."
"Okay, let's deal with your nightmare first. We can discuss the issue of their spells in two days," Isaac shrugged. "It just so happens... I plan to write a letter and ask for some idols from my old friends. The secret book of the school. The collection of idol spells at Zedi Black Tower is not very complete.
"I don’t know when they will be free again. It’s better to stay for a day or two and wait for the book to be sent over, then take it with you and learn slowly on the way."
"...Old friend?"
Annan was a little surprised by this word.
At your age... can you still have old friends living in this world?
Nicholas is already over a hundred years old, so Isaac’s old friend must be two hundred years old?
"You may also know him."
Issac chuckled and said: "It's the false **** who appeared in your Winter Principality in the past two years...
"——Man in the Mirror, [Michelangelo]."
Updated!
I just finished the second chapter today... The time now is 1:17. I have just finished writing the first chapter, and I have to visit my father’s grave during the day, and then go to the hospital to get the COVID-19 vaccine after I come back. Do you know if you need to queue? I guess I have to run for a day, and I probably won’t have the time or energy to finish the second chapter when I get back... Although updating one chapter is not full attendance, I think it’s better to read it than not (
Then it’s time to prepare for the first nightmare in Volume 3, please vote~
