The Righteous Player(s)

Once Annan started thinking about it.

　　 His wisdom turned into a sharp blade, cutting through the gap of memory. Many hidden truths are revealed in front of us——

　　 The **** who modified the memory of "Nicholas II" but did not delete it is Yaon's subordinate **** Shifu.

　　 Then the question is coming.

　　——Why is it him?

　　 Shifu was a sculptor before his death. In that era when there was no "idol school", he mastered the "magic in sculpture", and he was considered a half idol wizard.

　　 But he has never mastered the skills of the Imperius School, nor has he possessed the powers related to memory and dreams.

　　 Then, why did Shifu perform this task?

　　Is he really unable to clear the memory of Nicholas II?

Or……

　　 Hermetic Poison Dust, can only he make it?

　　 Annan may have recognized this reason before.

　　 But now, Annan has peeped into Nicholas's memory, and finally knows one thing.

　　Why is Nicholas called Hermes II? Why can only he make so many ancient products of the Hermetic School?

　　 This is not because of his outstanding talents.

　　 But because... the slate that records these products happens to be something that only the highest-level "tower master" can view and learn!

"... Nicholas Flamel had ignited his soul and advanced gold more than a hundred years ago. But at that time, he did not succeed the master of the tower... more than a year later, he He suddenly became the son of the tower and succeeded as the tower master at a very fast speed."

　　 This is the story of the "Hermes II" that Salvatore told Annan a long time ago.

　　 Thinking back now, the real problem, Annan should have noticed as early as this time...

　　The so-called son of the tower is the one with the highest talent among all the apprentices, and its talent must surpass the owner of the tower. All wizard towers maintain their own renewal through this method.

　　 At that time, why was he not the master of the tower?

　　 This can be seen from the elements of his awakening.

　　 He wants to awaken himself to the elements of [wisdom] or [understanding], but he does not.

　　 This is actually unreasonable.

　　Because he was born in the Jade Pagoda... The Jade Pagoda itself is a tower of knowledge, and all wizard towers hold the most orthodox inherited knowledge:

　　In the formal means of inheritance, it is possible to "color" one's soul and modify one's own natural element tendency by stacking a large amount of high-level mysterious knowledge in the same field when advancing to gold.

　　Because the aborigines of this world do not have the system panel and the tendency to see their own elements like Annan.

　　Before they changed their jobs, they couldn't determine what elements they would awaken.

　　 If you are a warrior with a compassionate element, or a wizard with a courage element, then the problem is big.

　　 If there is no artificial dyeing.

　　—Then the element attribute they awaken is the "desire" itself that pushes them to gold.

　　 can be seen from here.

　　 When Nicholas was promoted to gold, he hadn't discussed with anyone—especially his mentor. His extremely strong desire for "victory" can even promote his promotion to gold and finish dyeing.

　　 At that time, his talent was not enough to make him a son of the tower.

　　 Later, he suddenly became the son of the tower-and succeeded the tower owner.

　　 There can only be one reason.

　　 I am afraid that he used the element of victory... he attacked the tower master.

　　 And this speculation, Annan searched Nicholas’ memory for a bit, and he was able to confirm it--

　　 At that time, Jade Pagoda had only two golden rank transcendents.

　　 One is Nicholas.

　　 Another one is Nicholas Flamel's teacher and adoptive father-Isaac Flamel, the master of the previous generation of towers.

　　 Even though Nicholas didn't like his father, his father had already taken care of him. He was sent to the Cuiyu Pagoda and not elsewhere because he had a relative with the same surname as "Flamel", who was here in the Cuiyu Pagoda.

　　In the third year after Nicholas entered the Jade Tower and expressed his talent, he was accepted as an apprentice by Isaac Flamel. But before that, he was also secretly swayed by the master of the tower.

　　 Nicholas has been thinking deeply since he was a child.

　　 He has never exposed his unflattering side... He concentrates on absorbing all the knowledge he can access, and remembers the ideas inherited from the Cuiyu Pagoda.

　　 Therefore, he also gradually gained Isaac's approval.

　　 Things changed when he communicated with Isaac shortly after he advanced to Silver——

　　 "...First I must tell you."

　　 Isaac replied: "There is no'the most perfect thing' in this world."

　　 When he was young, Flammel replied firmly: "It is for this reason that we have to sublimate everything in the world to perfection-this is the philosophy that our Jade Pagoda has inherited to this day, isn't it?"

　　 "Perhaps it was before."

　　 Isaac sighed, "But I don't think so anymore."

　　 "...why?"

　　 Flammel asked incredulously.

　　 Isaac turned around and replied calmly, "Because this world needs the ordinary.

　　 "It's not that everything has to be perfect, it's a goal that can never be achieved...because there is no ‘perfect’ in this world, only ‘better’.”

　　 "Even the stone of the wise man in the teaching, can't it be called perfect?"

　　 "That's right."

　　 Isaac’s emerald green pupils gleamed with the brilliance of reason: “Even the immortal gods, the endless starry sky above their heads, the land under their feet where many lives and dead bodies are buried, is far from perfect.

　　"We follow perfection only because of our own imperfections. We will regard everything that is ‘more perfect’ than us as great things... Only by walking in that direction can we continue to sublimate ourselves.

　　 "It's like walking toward the lighthouse in a dark field. But we don't really want to reach the lighthouse... because wandering in this dark sea of ​​truth is a kind of happiness in itself."

"But ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Although Nicholas was shocked by the idea that "Gods are not perfect", he still subconsciously refuted, "If perfection is a trend, then as long as we keep moving forward, we can Arrived to perfection. "

　　 "But we can't keep going because we will step back one day."

　　 "Then... what if they regress or fall?"

"Then get up again. After awakening from the failure, we will become stronger...One day, they will forget the lessons learned from this failure and enter a darker night. But they will also eventually come again. wake up."

　　 Isaac shook his head and said calmly: "History is like this. History is an ascending spiral. It has an ascending period, and it must have a descending period; like the sun rises, it will set.

"The things we have developed, the truths we have discovered, may one day be lost in the future. But in the farther future, people will continue to advance in our corpses... This is the meaning of mankind, and this is also history. Meaning."

　　I heard the adoptive father and the respected mentor say this.

　　 Nicholas had a vague idea.

　　 But at this time, he hadn't noticed... what he was aware of.

　　 He just asked subconsciously.

　　 "So... what if history is no longer to decline?

　　 "If the world will always get better, then can we reach'infinite perfection'?"
