She Chooses To Destroy the World

When Alice returned with the captives to Faerun's Mansion, the Duchess had been back for a while. She seemed to be slightly taken aback, but she was not injured. It was not the first time that she had encountered such a thing, so she was still calm, went back to the room to rest, and drank some herbal tea to calm her mood.

The captive was imprisoned in Faerun’s dungeon, and Alice was blamed by the other two knights:

"How can you let your Highness come back! What if there are other assassins behind!"

Alice knew that there was Circillian, and the Duchess was actually not in danger. But for reasons like this, she couldn't tell her colleagues, she could only put on a very guilty face.

Fortunately, nothing happened to the Duchess, and the other two knights didn't blame Alice too much. Seeing her look guilty, he comforted her and patted her shoulder:

"Fortunately, nothing happened, so be careful in the future!"

They said a few more words together, Arnold and Bennett went to do their own thing, Alice also started a new job-Arnold and Bennett told her that she needed to write down the process of the previous attack , In order to study the focus of defense in the future. After a while, a maid came to pass a message that the duchess was looking for her.

Alice came to the duchess' study, and the duchess sat at the table, apparently fully recovered. When she saw Alice, she asked her to sit down happily, thanked Alice for risking her life to protect herself, and returned the chain mail that Alice had put on her before.

After talking about these common things, the Duchess looked into Alice’s eyes and said to her:

"The horse that took me back today looks familiar to me... It was the horse you rode in the race before, right?"

Alice nodded, and listened to the Duchess continuing:

I asked the people in the stables to take good care of it, but someone reported to me just now that the horse...is missing? "

It would be completely impossible for Cecilian to stay in the stable so as not to expose his goal. Cecilian once said to Alice that for the gods, the horse's body is not a place to rest comfortably, and their thinking is not complicated enough to carry the god's huge spirit. Although Cecilian now has the ability to become an animal, he does not want to appear in animal form all the time.

The same was true for Alice in the previous game. Whenever a game is over, Alice takes it to a place where there is no one, so that Circillian can free himself from the horse's body. Fortunately, most people thought that Alice was worried about the horse accident and hid it. Therefore, although many people know that Alice's horse disappears whenever the race is over, it did not cause any special sensation.

But this time, it's probably hard to say clearly.

Alice's brain was spinning quickly, trying to come up with some suitable excuses, but the expression of the Duchess at this time was very ordinary, and she did not seem particularly surprised. Just listen to her continue:

"Although this matter seems a bit strange, I always feel that you should be able to give me an explanation. When I think about it, it's not a horse, right?"

Alice knew that the Duchess was always very smart and keen, but she still didn't expect that she would guess it so quickly.

Alice's expression exposed everything, and the duke understood most of it when she saw her look. She thought a little, then said:

"In our country, almost everyone believes in gods, and gods affect all aspects of society. Although I am not a devout believer, and I am not allowed to become a devout believer, I can understand why people treat gods There are all kinds of prayers. Life is too difficult. Everyone hopes that there is a simple way to solve everything they encounter, or even if they can't actually solve it, at least it can give people a little comfort and a little hope. "

Having said this, the Duchess paused for a while and said:

"But I will also consider whether changing to a **** worship will make the world better?"

The Duchess' words seemed to raise a question, but she seemed to have an answer in her tone. At least, the Duchess herself believed that this was not a problem that could be solved by changing a god.

Alice had never thought about such things, she was dumbfounded, not knowing how to answer. Compared with the Duchess, her thoughts on the gods seem to be too simple. She can only stammer:

"Cecilian is different."

"Perhaps." The Duchess said tolerantly, "As the person who was saved, I really don't have the right to make irresponsible remarks. Although many people want me to die, I still like to continue to live for the time being. I intend to do what they want. In short, please thank your **** for me. Although I will not become his believer, I will do my best to help him when he needs it."

The Duchess promises her daughter, she will never repent easily. It was a blessing for Circillian to be able to get such a promise from her.

Alice bowed to her, and the Duchess gestured to the end of the conversation and allowed her to leave. Wait for Alice to return to her room. Cecilian's voice suddenly appeared:

"Your lord is an interesting person."

"interesting?"

It doesn't seem appropriate to use such words to describe the duchess, but the definition of fun by the gods is obviously not the same as that of ordinary people.

"She doesn't believe in gods, and she can't believe in them. In this world, the existence of gods is unquestionable, so it is very easy to gain human faith. Most people only need to see miracles in the world. Appears, you will be convinced. But for someone like her, whether or not the gods exist, it has nothing to do with her. From another perspective, perhaps she is the real master of the world, and the rest are just It's just a slave."

"I am not a slave." Alice said immediately, "If one day, I find that I have become your slave, I will do everything possible to cut off the connection between us."

"Of course you are not." Cecilian said, "When you dedicate your name to me, I also gave your name to you. That's why we can form that special homology. You can call mine. Divine power, and I can also perceive humans through you. I have to say that I have learned a lot about humans during the time I was with you."

"Oh? What kind of understanding?"

"Humans have all kinds of emotions. They can give their lives for what they think are right, and they will cry for the death of their kind. Human beings are also very strong, even if they are heartbroken, they will still try to live. Human beings. The way of working hard...it's very attractive to me."

Obviously he used the word "human", and lovely Lisi knew that Cecilian was actually talking about her. His voice was right in her ears, causing Alice to have a strange feeling that was unspeakable.

"Do you like humans?"

Alice thought she would get a "like" answer from Cecilian, she never expected Cecilian to say this:

"Not very clear, but... I really like you."

Alice's face was a little red, but Cecilian didn't seem to notice it, or he actually noticed it but couldn't understand it. He continues to say:

"After I became a horse before, I felt very uncomfortable. Being a horse in reality will have many physiological needs. I have never felt this before. These extra content bother me, but it is also It gave me a desire to try to appear as a human being after gaining enough power, to experience the world with a human body, and to experience the fit of human beings with a human body."

After Cecilian said this, he paused for a while:

"So, at this moment, I want to ask you, do you want me to appear in front of you as a male in the future?"

Alice instinctively realized that Cecilian’s question seemed to be more than that simple. Behind this question, there seemed to be some questions that were more difficult to answer. Now that the control is in her hand, she trembles involuntarily.

Does she want him to appear as a man?

Alice closed her eyes and only considered the truest thoughts deep in her heart. In the end she chose to answer like this:

"If it were so, I would be very happy."

"That's it." Cecilian's voice also had a happy accent, "This is an important decision. We should make a contract."

Just like when Alice became his believer, her lips were touched.

Although it was just a kiss like being pecked by a chick, Alice felt ashamed. The eighteen-year-old Alice's understanding in all aspects has increased compared with that of the seventeen-year-old, and she is more sensitive to actions that are too intimate. For Cecilian, this might just be the kiss when she made the promise, but lovely Lisi clearly realized that she might want more at this time, and this thought made her feel even shy.

Is it the eighteenth birthday that no one celebrates that made her feel empty?

Circe An could clearly see her heart, but at this time she seemed to be unaware of her shyness, but made a solemn agreement:

"When I have obtained the divine power that is concrete enough, I will appear as a human male. At that time, the rule of the God of Light will collapse, and you will reign in my name and become the new master of this world."

Alice was a little surprised when Cecilian said the second half:

"I thought it was just an agreement about your gender."

"Everything in the world has its own connection. From the perspective of the gods, the connection is closer than you think."

"Will that new world be better than it is now?"

"I don't know." Cecilian was very honest. "In all kinds of legends and stories, we always try to describe the power of the gods. But in fact, the gods always change their way according to the hope of human beings. The face, what will happen in the future, is only related to you and to your present."

"I don't know how to be the master of the world. I'm still too young and have too little knowledge. I don't know anything."

"It's okay." Cecilian said, "You will continue to grow. One day you will know what to do and how everything will change... As for today, Alice, I wish you a happy birthday."

The blessing she received for the first time on her eighteenth birthday was amazing. She grew up a year older, matured a little bit, and got closer to the future described by Cecilia.

"I should give you a gift." He said, "but I am ashamed. At this moment, I really have nothing to give you."

"There is no need to give me anything else, you have already given me a lot... If you still feel upset, please give me another hug."

"Then, please close your eyes."

Alice closed her eyes and opened her arms, and then she felt herself falling into a warm embrace. Cecilian’s voice was in her ears, and once again blessed her:

"Happy birthday, Alice."

Alice kept her eyes closed, enjoying Cecilian’s hug. If time permits, she wants to keep hugging like this, but this probably won’t work. In the end, she opened her eyes, and the gentle **** was in the air. Dissipated in the middle, no more sound.

For Alice, this is a very beautiful birthday, and it should be satisfying, but the magic of birthday will be broken at midnight, which seems to be a routine. Alice slept until midnight, was awakened by the sound of a maid knocking on the door, and then received very unpleasant news:

The prisoners she brought back killed themselves in the dungeon despite being closely guarded.
