Reborn My Name Is Kobe

At about five o'clock in the afternoon, I finished my fitness and yoga practice and drove the BMW of Kobe's father Joe to Jessica's house. Before going to her house, I went to the specialty store to prepare a gift for Jessica.

small gift.

When I gave a large bouquet of bright roses to Jessica, she looked so happy and immediately jumped into my arms. I patted Jessica's back gently.

Jessica originally wanted to go out to find a place to eat in the evening, but when I came I bought some fresh ingredients and good red wine, so in the end we decided to have the dinner at Jessica's home.

Jessica's home can be called big or small. If you don't count the basement, it has a total area of ​​nearly two hundred square meters. This area is actually not too big for a two-story building, but Jesse

However, Jessica's parents' room has always been sealed off by Jessica. She said that if she could not find her parents, the room would be sealed off forever.

"Are there any clues hidden in your parents' room that we missed before, such as another notebook written by them, or some small notes, which contain some special notes they made for you?

A reminder to stay.”

"I don't know either. Since they left for the last time, I have locked their rooms, and in fact the keys to their rooms have been melted by me."

"This? It seems that you have really made a lot of determination! But maybe your parents would rather see you live well and not be overly painful because of their departure."

I personally cooked a seafood dinner for Jessica. This is also a dish that I was very good at in my previous life. It seems that Jessica is quite satisfied with my cooking skills. She usually has an average appetite and eats it alone.

Two big lobsters fell off, haha! If this continues, will she become fat as a result of my feeding?

In order to create some atmosphere for eating, Jessica and I placed the dining table directly on the grass outside the house. While admiring the stars and moonlight in the night sky, we ate seafood and drank red wine. Gradually, we became drunk.

"Jessica, look at the moon today, it's so round. It's not without reason that there are so many legends about the moon, because it is so beautiful that when people see it, they can't help but connect it with some magical and mythical legends.

Together, I hope that there really is some magic in our world that can change people's monotonous and boring lives."

"The moon is a very complex metaphor. Many beautiful things and many terrible things are all based on the moon. It represents motherhood and family, and it also represents evil. Moonlight has completely different meanings in different cultures.

.”

"You seem to have a good understanding of these cultural differences. If you ask me, such beautiful moonlight still represents beauty most of the time."

"Have you ever heard of the legend about werewolves?"

"Werewolf? Yes, the moonlight during the full moon is the direct cause of werewolves transforming into wolves, but I have always been curious about why these legends of werewolves and vampires are so widely spread in our human civilization.

Why are most teenagers attracted to their mysterious magic?"

"Don't you think werewolves and vampires are cool? Anyway, if I have a werewolf or vampire boyfriend."

"Wait, do you want me to turn into a vampire or a werewolf?"

I opened my mouth, tried to make my eyes look more terrifying, and opened my hands as if I wanted to pounce on Jessica.

As a result, Jessica not only didn't look scared, but actually burst out laughing. My goosebumps came out when I heard her laughter. I felt like she was like a sexy little witch sometimes, and like a witch at the same time.

A naughty little kitten.

"You are actually not suitable to play a vampire."

"Why?"

"Because vampires tend to have gloomy personalities, and you seem to be more energetic. Maybe it would be better to be a werewolf."

"That makes sense, but vampires and werewolves seem to have always been enemies of life and death. It is said that the venom on the teeth of werewolves can easily kill vampires."

"I'm not sure about this, but in traditional vampire legends, wooden stakes, silver knives, silver bullets, and flames can all destroy vampires. Werewolves seem to be quite afraid of silverware, but you don't have to worry about the basic tableware at my house.

They are covered with silverware. If a vampire or werewolf really appears near my house, I will definitely pierce their heart with these silver forks."

"Wow! It sounds quite exciting. I was just thinking that your ancestors collected so many cultural relics from the past era. Maybe there are some weapons specially used to kill these supernatural creatures."

"Don't tell me, there is a sterling silver sword from the British royal family in the late 16th century stored in the basement of my house. It is said that this sword was stolen when it was first made, and

It has changed dozens of owners over the course of hundreds of years, and most of them have suffered terrible fates."

"The terrible curse of the sword? I don't really believe in these so-called legends, and in the legend, a pure silver sword like this should have very powerful power and can restrain all kinds of evil forces. How could it be so?

Bringing a terrible fate to their masters?"

"Some things are not good to say. Maybe it's because the owners who have owned it believe too much in the power of this sword, so they intentionally or unintentionally provoke those strange people.

Something, and this sword may not be as powerful as they imagined, so in the final analysis, the terrible fate is caused by their own choices."

"I'm actually a little curious. Can you let me see this sterling silver sword with my own eyes later?"

"Of course, no problem, but I have to tell you something. The legend I just told you about the terrible fate that this sword brought to its owner is not just a legend. My ancestors also paid a very heavy price to get this sword.

For the price, they also left some detailed records about the past story of this sword. There is more than one copy of these records, but our family has kept this sword and various legends about it properly over the years."

"Will it only bring bad luck to its owner?"

"I'm not particularly sure. In fact, if I go by what is said in the record, I don't really own it now. In fact, this sterling silver sword seems to have its own consciousness and I can choose it by my own will.

Its master, and once it becomes its master, it will undergo a series of tests, and those who fail to pass the tests will suffer terrible disasters."

"Jessica! Are you sure what you just said is true? It sounds more and more like a magical legend."

"There are too many mysteries surrounding it. In fact, there are many ancient cultural relics in the basement that have similar properties to this sterling silver sword. I don't know if the legends surrounding them are true, so I also

I dare not touch the things in the basement easily. They are too mysterious. When I lived alone in the past, I always dreamed that I went to the basement alone, and there was a mysterious door in the deepest part of the basement.

, every time I am about to open the door, I wake up from my dream. I seem to be able to vaguely remember some scenes after the door is opened, but it is so vague and unrecognizable."

I didn't speak, I just listened quietly to Jessica's words, and I also fell into deep thought. In fact, we humans don't feel confused because of ignorance. The reason why we feel confused is that we think we already know.

If you learn enough, you will eventually find that the more you know, the more unknown areas you will face.

Just like when our field of vision is very narrow, what we can see and what we think we have not seen will be very limited. For example, when we are in a dark room, lighting a candle can illuminate it.

A large area makes us think we can see the whole world, but in fact the whole world is just a small house.

However, when we go out of the hut and come under the dark night sky, one candle cannot illuminate the darkness around you. Even if you have ten thousand or more candles, you cannot illuminate the entire dark night sky.

At this time, you will be very scared and find that you clearly have more candles, but it only reveals more darkness around you.

The same is true for our human cognition. When the knowledge we know is very limited, we can fill in the originally small knowledge field by learning some knowledge. However, once we enter a truly huge field like

After a field of knowledge like the dark night sky, even if our knowledge expands countless times, it will only make us feel that there is so much unknown darkness (knowledge) and it is so impossible to fully illuminate (know). This is

The real reason why we are confused.

"Jessica, if you were given a chance to choose, should you become a supernatural creature but lose your humanity, or should you continue to retain your humanity but be an ordinary person."

"Yeah, I didn't expect you to ask such a high-level question. If someone had asked me this question before, I would have chosen to become a supernatural creature that loses humanity but has super powers. However, now

After I met you, if someone asks me this again, I would rather choose to be an ordinary person but retain my humanity. I don’t want to forget you for the sake of so-called super powers!”

"Oh my god! I don't even know how to answer you."

I hugged Jessica tightly and had a very lingering and deep kiss with her. Maybe it was because the birds flying in the sky couldn’t stand it, but I suddenly felt like something had hit me on the head.

, when I touched it with my hand, I found it was a pile of bird droppings.

"Haha, go and wash it quickly."

I shook my head and had no choice but to take a shower. When I came out of the shower, I found that Jessica had also put on a very sexy pink dress, and the whole room was filled with a special aroma.

.

"Wow, are you going to dress like this and take me to see that sterling silver sword?"

Jessica didn't answer me, but showed a rather mysterious smile. I rushed over and hugged Jessica, and then walked to the bedroom.

Half an hour later, I lay flat on the bed, staring at the roof of the room, not knowing what I was thinking.

"Let's go see that sterling silver sword now, but promise me not to touch that sterling silver sword with your hands under any circumstances. You must promise me."

I looked at Jessica at a loss, her eyes were very firm, and it was obvious that there must be a reason why she said that, so I didn't speak and just nodded slightly.

Jessica and I both changed into another set of clothes, and then she opened the secret door in the room, and we once again walked along the long stairs deep underground.

When I walked into this underground space deep beneath Jessica’s house for the second time, and

When I first came here, I had some different feelings. The last time I came here, I would be shocked by everything around me. But now my mentality is a little calmer, and at the same time, I am also aware of all the cultural relics placed around me.

Got some new insights and a greater sense of respect.

"Jessica, why do I feel that this time I came to this room in your basement, it feels a little different from the last time. It seems like there is something extra here, and it seems like something is missing."

"Maybe it's just because it was the first time you entered here last time, so you weren't mentally prepared enough. But when you come here this time, you already know the approximate origin of these things, so you won't have the same sense of surprise as last time.

Already."

"No, I thought so just now, but things shouldn't be that simple. I think we should try to be more careful and maintain a greater sense of awe for the various cultural relics around us, just like you said

Yes, many of the cultural relics here may be the same as that sterling silver sword, possessing very mysterious and special past experiences, recording stories that happened in this world in the past."

"Then what kind of cultural relic is your favorite? Is it the treasures from the deep sea covered with corals, or the exquisite porcelain from the far east, or the gold coins that the Spanish invaders brought out from the Mayan ruins hundreds of years ago?

, or fragments of megalithic sculptures from islands near Oceania."

"I really haven't thought about this. If one day in the future you and I can travel and explore the world together like your parents, then one of the places I want to go to most is the pyramids in Egypt, and the other is Oceania.

Easter Island, I grew up hearing stories about these places."

"The Egyptian Pyramids and Easter Island are quite mysterious and worth seeing, but I tell you there are many, many places in the world that we can explore. Although my parents' notes have been lost, they may still be there

There are still some clues left in their room."

"Didn't you already melt the door key to your parents' room?"

"How about prying it open and changing the lock? Let's see if I'm smart!"

I patted Jessica's head lovingly, and we had gone deeper along the basement passage. Only then did I realize that this basement was not actually a room, but a very large underground room.

In the world, the last place we arrived was just a front room. When Jessica and I walked to the end of the room, we discovered that three doors made of different materials and colors appeared in front of us.

"What are the things behind these rooms? I feel like there is a collection of cultural relics in your basement that is no less than a small museum."

"But quite a few of these cultural relics cannot be allowed to see the light of day again."

"Why is this again?"

"Because there are some things in them that should not exist in this world."

It seems like this is the second time I heard this sentence from Jessica, but the last time I heard this sentence, I just thought that Jessica might just say it casually, without any special meaning.

However, when Jessica mentioned this for the second time today, I seemed to suddenly wake up and began to understand that there must be something in Jessica's words, and some things may not be what I thought.

It's that simple.

Jessica took out a key with a faint golden light from somewhere. The shape of the key looked very simple, with the feeling of a medieval European key. When the key was inserted into the keyhole,

Afterwards, I faintly heard a sound like the gears of a machine being turned.

The door that Jessica opened seemed to be the newest among the three doors, but compared with ordinary doors, it still belonged to the antique level. It's just that the other two doors looked older, that's why it looked like this.

The door is relatively new.

After Jessica turned the key to the limit, she pushed it forward with both hands. However, the door only opened a small gap. It seemed that the door had a certain thickness and considerable weight.

I also put my hands on the door, ready to help Jessica push the door open. The moment I put my hands on the door, it was as if I had been hit by a static electricity, and my body trembled slightly.

He trembled for a moment, but the weak current disappeared in an instant.

At first, I didn't expect that this door was so heavy. Even though Jessica had unlocked the door with the key, it was not easy to push it open.

In fact, when Jessica had exerted her strength, I thought I only needed to exert a little strength to push it open. However, it was not until my strength gradually increased to a certain extent that the gap in the door became slightly larger than before.

A little bit wider.

In the end, I had to use all my strength and push the door with a strong explosive force. The door finally made a sound like the rotation of gears, and then slowly opened on its own.

"Wow, is it so difficult to open this door? Doesn't it take so much effort to open it every time?"

"Actually, no, it's just that the door has not been activated for a while. If you open the door again within a week, you only need to use the key. However, if it is more than a week since it was last opened, this

Opening the door once requires some extra effort to activate the mechanism gear inside the door."

"It's indeed interesting!"
