Chapter 124 The Heart that Cannot Tolerate Failure
Hearing Yaweng's words, Annan's pupils shrank suddenly.
This is a secret completely beyond Annan's expectations.
"...Tianche Yushou, was he killed that year?"
Annan murmured.
He originally thought that Tianche Yushou died in an accident.
But now it seems... It seems to be artificial?
But today's twelve righteous gods are all friends of Tianche Yushou. She is also the guide during the ascension ceremony of the gods... Who can kill her?
"No idea. We don't know anything."
Jawon sighed: "Perhaps only Sisyphus was the one who witnessed this incident. After that, the body of the Sky Chariot was buried."
Speaking of this matter, his complexion was also a little dark: "But Sisyphus hadn't completed his sublimation at that time. He can't be regarded as a god... And at the golden level, he couldn't understand where the enemy was at all, let alone recognize the enemy. what an attack.
"Sisyphus could only see the body of the Crane Rider, suddenly shattered in front of him. And the Crane he was riding on fell from the highest point...
"The book of truth of Sisyphus survives, and the soul is not damaged by it.
"Although the Sky Carriage Rider is dead, the Sky Carriage Ceremony can actually operate on its own. With the help of the mysterious lady, he can also complete the Ascension Ceremony. But Sisyphus really doesn't want to become a god. Or... he doesn't want to Goodbye Skycar.
"Sisyphus no longer believed in justice, let alone that he himself could uphold justice for the world.
"However, justice is a truth that must exist. As he promised, [justice never dies]. Justice must never die.
"So Sisyphus used his last energy to open up the way of the saint.
"—and in order to create the holy bones, he dug out his own heart. But at that time he still did not die on the spot, but after the holy bones were created, he entrusted his heart to the next generation [Justice], and even personally He has a heart transplant.
"Afterwards, he chose a silent death when no one noticed."
Although it is only half a step away from ascension.
But Sisyphus gave up the eternal life that was at his fingertips.
Because he was completely exhausted.
This was not a sudden, momentary blow. It is a complete denial of all life so far.
——The gods I admire and the people I love are falling apart in front of me. And I just watched helplessly, but I couldn't do anything.
What kind of justice is this?
"It really is 'Pale Justice'..."
Annan murmured.
He could fully understand the mentality of that "Sisyphus" at that time.
As the god of justice in the future, he can't do anything.
The strongest desires are defeated head-on by "failure". This made Sisyphus completely lose hope of becoming a god-he didn't even want to live anymore. For him, eternal life is probably just torture.
Should I say... as expected of "Pale Justice".
It was so pale and powerless.
but……
Annan suddenly realized something.
I once obtained the curse "Heart of Sisyphus" in a certain nightmare.
That Sisyphus didn't seem to be the one I thought - the one who kept pushing the stone to the top and then started all over again. It is the "Heart of Sisyphus" of this world——
[Heart of Sisyphus (taboo type): You must not despair because of failure. 】
[This curse is attached to itself, has no maintenance cost and is automatically triggered, and will be automatically released after the conditions are met]
[Triggered when you fail any judgment three times in a row and try to make a judgment again——]
[Before this judgment is successful, all your abilities applicable to this judgment will be temporarily +1]
[This spell can be triggered indefinitely, but the erosion rate will be +1 each time the spell is triggered; if the same judgment is triggered multiple times, the erosion rate will be added +2 when the second trigger is triggered, for a total of +3; When triggering the first time, the erosion degree will be added +3, a total of +6, and so on]
[A Loser's Last Gift, and Tribute - Denton]
"Don't despair because of failure...and, the last gift of a loser."
Annan murmured.
He vaguely realized something.
Why... he clearly thought he was not that "justice", yet he was chosen by the "Heart of Justice";
Why in "Praise the Name of Tianche", there is a "fanatic who soars because of love";
Why the curse of the heart of Sisyphus requires "do not despair because of failure";
Why Zhi Ji hoped that he could inherit the "Heart of Justice" before advancing to gold...
"The heart of Sisyphus... is it the curse left by Sisyphus back then?"
Annan couldn't help but asked, "Paper Ji, did you say that to me because I was bound by a curse?"
"It is indeed because I saw your curse that I suggested you to obtain the Sisyphus profession. This curse will definitely make you very compatible with the heart of Sisyphus and the profession of Sisyphus..."
Zhi Ji shook her head lightly: "However, [Heart of Sisyphus] is not a curse left by Sisyphus. Rather, it is the exact opposite...
"It is precisely because of Sisyphus' failure that such a curse was born in this world. There will no longer be a third heavenly chariot in this world, which means...there is no room for failure in this world.
“[Heart of Justice] is Sisyphus, as the person chosen by "Pale Justice", all the condensation of his desire for 'justice' in his heart. Inheriting this holy bone is tantamount to inheriting Sisyphus's Pursuit: 'Let all those who seek justice in this world never give up hope'.
"...That is to say, [Heart of Justice] hates Sisyphus himself very much."
"The will in the holy bones is also the will of the saint himself..."
"That's right, it's Sisyphus' original intention, which loathes the self who's been 'overwhelmed by failure'. Because of this, it specifically requires that successors never run away because of failure, let alone give up because of disappointment."
Zhi Ji said softly.
Jawon was on the side, suddenly imitating someone's emphasis, reciting an ancient and weird language that Annan had never heard before:
"The heart of justice, selfless and uncowardly;
"He who bears fire would rather die than be defeated;
"Death and fire continue, and people flee from fire;
"When the lamb looks up, there must be a star."
"……what language is this?"
Annan couldn't help asking.
He had never heard the language. It sounded like a rattling whisper, but in Jawon's recitation, Annan understood the meaning of the words, like a slightly awkward ancient prose.
"This is what Sisyphus said before he ascended."
Jawon said slowly: "At that time, the chronology had not yet been determined. There were no four seasons in this world... let alone these Yaselan people. Sisyphus is not even a pure flesh and blood life. If you use the words you can understand Say, Sisyphus is a living elemental of fire."
"...Fire element?"
Annan asked back.
For a while, he didn't quite understand what the [Heart of Justice] was like...
"It looks like a cross made of pale flames, about three to four meters high, with two circular chains shining with golden light overlapping each other to form an X, hanging in the middle of the cross. The sounds that came out were the heavy buzzing from the depths of the flames, and the crisp ringing of the chains as they turned and collided.
"The humming in the flame expresses its will, while the bell is an embellishment of emotion. I have removed the emotional part of this sentence for you... so that you can probably understand Sisyphus' original determination.
"It first swore to the Sky Chariot that it would rather die than flee.
"It thinks that nothing in this world can make it despair—because it has the Sky Chariot as its star. And it will also be the world's star, so that all who feel injustice can call on it just by raising their heads. No matter what suffering it endures, it will turn it into fuel for the flames...and if it is defeated one day, it must be broken into nothingness. The fire falls like rain, and at that time, there must be new people Hold the 'fire of justice', inherit its position, embark on this path, and become the stars of all living beings.
"—Yes, in that era before the birth of the chronology, Sisyphus was already ready for death. And that 'source fire' was the heart of justice.
"But it just didn't think about it... what will happen if the Skycheap Royal Hand falls."
The "Flame of Justice", who vowed to never despair, finally despaired because of failure.
——Therefore, the heart of justice cannot tolerate any despair from now on.
