The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 51: Hate towards the same kind
"You did originally intend to solve Bernardino's psychological problems...but the premise is that Father Ludwig is still alive."
Annan sat down on the seat and crossed his legs.
He narrated calmly and leisurely: "It is not a simple task to modify the memory of others, and it may also lead to disaster - after all, soul-stealing wizards often cannot prove whether they have 'not' done anything to their memory.
"So just to be on the safe side. After the soul-stealing wizard modifies the memory, the memory caused by the modification of the memory itself is usually erased from the mind.
"In other words, the person involved will not accept your favor at all. On the other hand, if the person involved remembers this... then if something goes wrong in the future, he will definitely come to you to settle the score."
Annan said casually, then picked up the teapot on the table and poured himself a cup of tea.
He took a sip of tea and said leisurely: "Of course I also know that your life is not easy. You can't make much money, and you can't have any status... Instead, you have to live a life of suspicion and discrimination. Life.
“And all of this comes from the fact that you chose to become a soul-stealing wizard in the first place.
"If your talent is stronger, you can enter the gold level without being restricted; if you are weaker, you don't need to bear so many troubles, and you won't be watched so closely."
Annan looked at Julius who was suddenly silent with a smile, and said sincerely: "I understand you.
"You will agree to help Bernardino, partly because you trust Father Ludwig's character, and partly because Ludwig owes you a favor. But if Ludwig is dead ...then his favor is meaningless.
"Because no matter what, Bernardino cannot and should not know about this. And the person who could know about it is no longer around... This means that you will not get any compensation for this.
"It would be fine if it was just a simple act of kindness. But at this moment... you searched for new memories from Bernardino's mind - about his talents, about his adoptive father and his teacher. Father Ludwig's determination."
"——You are jealous."
Annan sighed and said warmly: "I understand you...am I right?"
"Indeed..."
Julius suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and laughed: "Since you will appear here, it means I succeeded.
"He eventually embarked on the path of a transcendent being - most likely becoming a soul-stealing wizard. Moreover, he was still dead in the end."
The old man with a kind face did not attack Annan.
Because he knew it was pointless.
Now that I am clearly aware that I am in a nightmare... Instead of acting as a puppet and "attacking Bernardino in anger" according to his own personality, thereby preventing the other party from purifying the nightmare, it is better to Skip that step.
"I will do whatever you need me to do. I have no intention of stopping you from purifying Bernardino's nightmare."
Julius just sat calmly opposite Annan, took the teapot from Annan's hand very harmoniously, and poured himself a cup of tea.
"You know, my origin is very similar to Bernardino's. I am also a fisherman."
The kind expression on the old wizard's face gradually dissipated: "Although I don't have his life experience...but I also grew up in a very small village. Although my parents are still alive, when I was very young, They went to the city to work...
"In other words, after my mother became pregnant with me, she returned to the village and gave birth to me, and then left with my father.
"I never saw them again until I was thirteen. I only heard from my grandfather that they existed... I can't even be sure if this was my grandfather's comfort to me.
"——I was actually abandoned."
That's certainly not true nature, but it's not a disguise either.
Just an ordinary business smile.
Soul-stealing wizards are not popular with others. If they cannot make people feel friendly, they may also cause disaster.
He made a low voice: "But I actually don't think there is anything wrong with that kind of life. My grandfather raised me, and I have already made a decision... When I grow up, I will inherit my grandfather's legacy. Boat, take care of him.
"I haven't thought about life after that. I don't think about things that far away... I haven't read a book, and naturally I haven't gone to school. My only entertainment at that time was hanging out with my fellow villagers. friends telling strange legends.
"The first few things were told to me by my grandfather. He is an old fisherman and used to work as a transitional laborer. It can be said that he is well-informed.
"And those wonderful stories soon attracted the hearts of those children. They would gather around me and ask me to tell new stories. That was the first time I felt... what power is."
Yes, power.
Julius said slowly: "The children pursue me and recognize me. I can even exchange stories for toys and snacks.
"But my stories quickly ran out. The 'power' that surrounded me also dissipated...and I started to lie. In other words, I started to make up new stories.
"Of course it's under the guise of 'my grandpa told me', so that it becomes real. But the contents are all my whimsical fantasies. I don't think this is anything great. Talent.
"Until a wizard came to the village - he was just a passing traveler at first, standing in the crowd and listening to my story. I don't think there is anything strange about this. Passing merchants often do this.
"But he later went to see my grandfather. He told him that I have the potential to control people's hearts. This is a necessary talent for becoming a soul-stealing wizard... and my talent is still quite outstanding."
"What happens next?"
Annan asked curiously: "What did you say?"
"Of course I don't want to leave the village. If I leave, how will my grandfather take care of himself? His other children are dead, but my father has not returned. ~IndoMTL.com~ Now he He can still go fishing, but what if he can't move anymore?"
As if talking to an old friend, Julius said softly: "But my grandfather thinks that I can never stay here. My grandfather said, 'If you stay here for a long time, you will think that this village is the whole world. '.
"He gave me a good beating and told me to learn well. To become the best wizard."
The corners of Julius's mouth raised mockingly.
He spread his hands and moved his lips slightly.
He wanted to speak, but in the end he said nothing.
He did not mention his grandfather’s final outcome, but only said extremely pale words: "You also saw... I tried my best.
"I have worked hard and burned my whole life, but at most, I can only get here..."
