Chapter 435 The Gods Know Themselves, the Radiance Is Born in the Mirror

After learning that there was no problem on Annan's side, Salvatore accompany Annan to dinner and left quickly.

Captain Alexander left earlier - after learning that Annan was okay, he left in a hurry.

Even if he is the chairman of the bank, it does not mean that he can fish every day without working. However, he was in good health, and he didn't feel anything when he ran back and forth these two times.

It's Salvatore...he's really tired.

Before, the emergency medicine for Annan's dream was made, and the bumpy carriage came all the way, which had exhausted all of Salvatore's energy.

And now he can't go to sleep directly to rest... But it's almost dark now, if he takes the refreshing medicine again, he may not be able to sleep at night.

That would be even worse.

Next, Salvatore can only go for a walk in the garden, and then go home after walking.

He didn't even dare to eat his fill tonight.

Because if he eats too much and he is too tired, he may accidentally take a nap after sitting down, which will also release the shadow.

But after going back, I have to check and correct the homework he arranged a few days ago for my apprentice... Fortunately, little Hohenheim has a relatively stable personality, and is very active when reading, studying and taking notes, and does not use Salvatore very much. Ray worries.

Annan also went to see the child.

Indeed a good boy.

Salvatore has been very busy these days, so he can only arrange homework for him, hand over the teaching aids and Salvatore's own class notes of the year to him, and let the child learn by himself first.

"Slow down on the road, senior."

Annan smiled and waved to him.

Salvatore waved his hand without looking back: "I can still get lost..."

Just a little wobbly underfoot.

...don't tell me, I'm really worried.

But when Annan thought about it carefully, he didn't seem to have to worry too much.

In a sense, "Vatore-senpai" is much stronger than the senpai, a household waste. As long as the senior falls asleep, a vicious and decisive shadow will appear to take over the body - this is more reassuring than the unresponsive senior who always has kindness towards people.

At this moment, there was a loud crow chirping from behind Annan.

"quack--"

[You got a new tag "Advanced Influence: The Crow of the Faceless Crow"]

[If it is not removed in time, it will fall into a random nightmare with the keyword "record" after seven days (difficulty: distorted). 】

A familiar system prompt appeared in front of Annan's eyes again.

This is the fourth time he has heard this voice in the past few days.

Knowing that Annan didn't want to enter this nightmare for the time being, the Faceless Poet was very considerate to let the body call twice before he appeared to refresh the duration of Annan's influence.

The duration of the effect can be refreshed as long as it is repeatedly obtained before the effect reverberates.

And the faceless poet seems to like Annan's appearance very much. Whenever Zhiji is away, he will flow in from nowhere and chat with Annan for a while.

Black mud flowed out from the bottom of his bed, and skillfully gathered into that young human figure.

A young girl with a black crow mask, only about 1.45 meters tall, with long satin-like magical black hair wrapped around her body.

She made a sharp and loud voice reminiscent of birdsong: "You are amazing, Annan.

"I was wondering whether to rush in to save you, but I didn't expect you to survive."

"Can you see my dreams?"

The Faceless Poet first stretched out his finger, placed a finger in front of his lips, and made a silent gesture.

Then she said with a smile: "I am the god of records and secrets... a smart crow who can see everything, but remains silent forever.

"Of course, if it's you—it's not like you can't say anything?"

"……real?"

Annan asked back.

Hearing this, the faceless poet let out a loud laugh: "What secret did you see,

Annan?

"Let me guess... is it from Denisoya's side?"

"yes."

Annan nodded.

He asked, "What's going on with Nicholas?

"Previously, Zhiji told me that Nicholas was an artificial man with all of Nicholas' memory and knowledge, and that Father Stone was watching over him; but I later learned that Nicholas had a great possibility that it was the resurrected Nicholas himself... It's just that his memory has been modified, and he has forgotten about 'I am myself'.

"Bernardino reminded me... 'how many Nicholas are there?'. I still don't know that."

Hearing Annan's doubts, the Faceless Poet just raised his head and laughed.

Her laughter was very hearty, but for some reason, it always sounded like a hint of sarcasm...

"I'm not laughing at you, Annan."

She explained quickly, but the smile on her face couldn't be hidden at all: "How do you say... ah, I can almost tell you now. After all, the plan has been completed, and you realize this, we will also I can't hide it."

"Now?"

Annan keenly caught a key word.

The Faceless Poet nodded.

"Yes, now," she said with a chuckle, "in fact, this matter has something to do with you."

"And me?"

"Yes. Because Nicholas is also a 'mirror'."

The Faceless Poet replied: "It is your mirror."

——[The gods are born from the realm of light, and they know that the radiance is born in the mirror and falls into the void. 】【The light of the seventh luminary never falls in the mortal world】,【The 'mirror' without equal weight turns into an egg sheath, and the real light will not come from the light world】

These three words from Henry VIII appeared in Annan's mind again.

Henry VIII was a man "similar and opposite" to Annan.

He acts as a mirror for a ritual, used to hatch Annan's light.

In this way, only those who are "similar and opposite" to Annan are qualified to be mirrors.

And Nicholas . . . in what way is he similar and opposite to himself?

Is it because he, like me, lost his memory?

……wrong.

Annan suddenly remembered.

Nicholas back then was a person Kafney called a "devil". He slaughtered everywhere in the capital, and he had no psychological burden on the evil. Even raised a number of subordinates in the name of the devil...

Today, Nicholas is quite restrained.

"Could it be..."

Annan suddenly understood something. Slowly asked: "He lost his memory of doing evil?

"So he became a good man?"

- Just like Annan.

According to Annan's speculation, Annan in the first week is most likely because he cannot be recognized by the "just" holy skeleton, so he reversed the Heart of Winter, cleared his memory, and opened the second week.

The reason why he cleaned up his memory should be to prevent his cold memory from contaminating Annan's feelings.

And if Nicholas is deleted the experience of doing evil, it can indeed restore him to "the state before the evil".

The faceless poet shook his head quietly: "It's very close, but you still haven't guessed the most important part..."

"The most critical place?"

"Remember."

The black-haired young girl raised the corners of her mouth: "Do you still remember... the nightmare you just experienced?

"If Denton's residual will has infected your mind. Do you think you are Denton or Annan?

"The same thing. Do you think that after Nicholas's death, there will be no such fragments of will left in the world? He is much stronger than Denton."

Hearing this, Annan was stunned for a moment, and his head buzzed.

Many scattered clues were connected together in his mind——

It turns out that from the very beginning, Zhi Ji didn't lie or say anything wrong!

Nicholas is really his own android... So there are still corpses in Nicholas' grave!

And the memory he had forgotten, the stone father who watched him but let him out... plus the prompt, "How many Nicholas are there?"

- At first Annan thought it was one.

—— Later, Annan thought it was two, the good monitored person and the evil demon father.

—— Later, Annan thought it was one, the former was just the latter's memory was washed away.

— but now it appears that the answer is zero.

not a single one.

All are fake.

"What's the purpose of this... no, I see."

Annan raised his head and said slowly: "Your purpose... From the very beginning, it was to create a 'harmless Nicholas'!

"So that's why the gods let him act, why he finds his memory deleted so easily - because 'finding yourself as the real Nicholas' is what you're all about!

"Using the imprint of Nicholas' thinking, the body of the artificial human, the memory that has been modified and completed by himself without authorization... I got an artificial human who thought he was Nicholas!"

Annan said here, suddenly silent for a moment.

He stared at the Faceless Poet and asked slowly, "Then...why is he my mirror?"

In Annan's vision, the faceless poet is not highlighted.

"Don't panic, Annan."

The Faceless Poet just smiled mysteriously: "I dare to tell you, it's definitely not what you think.

"All I can say is... the Nicholas plan was proposed by Silver Lord and Javon; and the reason why you are you now is that this plan was proposed by yourself.

"And the causal relationship is reversed - it is because you saw the whole picture of the plan back then that you got the inspiration and the determination to throw away the memory. What I said is absolutely correct, because this is my [record].

"I'm talking about this, but since you haven't guessed what your own plan was back then. That means it's still not time yet.

"It's going to be just fine...I'll watch you, mate!"

After saying that, the faceless poet once again turned into black mud and disappeared.

A chapter of 3k, the update is complete!
