The operating mechanism of the Riding God is very strange. It spends most of its time sleeping. Once the conditions are met, it will wake up from its slumber. It can independently select the initiator who can control it and make a contract. Until the end of the contract, it can only be controlled by The corresponding starter drives.
For more than a thousand years, Valima has had many initiators, but every time the contract with the previous initiator ends, the memory will be sealed. It is not until you meet new starters, run in and grow together that the seal can be gradually unlocked.
Rean thought that he had grown up, and Valima would probably grow with him and regain more memories, but after actual communication, he found that Valima was still the same.
It may be that Rean's spirit has not yet affected Valimar, or it may be that it has, but it will take time for it to show up.
Hearing Rean's whisper, Valima asked, "Did something happen?"
Rean thought for a while and replied: "I have actually experienced it. No, it is harder to understand. Let me put it another way. I... saw the future, which was not a good future. The earth was engulfed by war and many people died. , there are also people who are important to me and my companions, so——"
"——You want to change it?" Valima answered.
"yes."
"You hope to know the truth about the God of Riding and the 'Great Power' from my memory?"
"No, I already know this. If you want to know, I can tell you now."
There were seven treasures in the ancient times. Among them, the treasure of earth and the treasure of fire, which also appeared as giant gods, met on the land of the empire. The two giant gods fought, and the result was that the world collapsed and both sides were injured.
The giant god's body is at both ends of the empire, unable to rise again.
The power flowed throughout the empire and merged into a new "giant power".
In order to manage this power, the followers of the giant god put aside their previous differences and joined hands to create the riding god system, dividing the "giant power" into seven and forging seven riding gods.
Since then, the Riding God has become a mystery in the shadow of the empire, coexisting with its history.
Whenever there is a war, the Riding God will awaken. The chaos and wars in the empire in recent years, as well as the "Earth Dragon" war that will sweep across the entire Western Continent in the future, are also inseparable from the Riding God.
Because only in this way can we harvest enough fighting spirit to wake up all the riding gods, fight with each other, and perform a ritual called "mutual restraint" to re-integrate the separated forces into one and achieve "real giants".
"Hmm, I see. Although the memory of this aspect has not been revived, I do have such a feeling."
Valima's words undoubtedly confirmed Rean's statement.
"How do you want to change? In my opinion, you don't have the power to stop this now."
"I know."
Rean had a headache when he thought of this, and it was not an ordinary headache.
The mechanism of the Riding God extended by the "giant power" is very disgusting and cannot meet the conditions of "mutual restraint". Even if all other Riding Gods are defeated, they will absorb spiritual power and slowly recover.
If you want to end this reincarnation, you must overcome each other and unite the forces into one, which requires fighting spirit and war, which is contrary to Rean's original intention.
"But there seems to be some workaround. It was for this reason that Miss Clotide summoned the Scarlet Riding God and the 'Glow Demon City'. Miss Clotide's whereabouts are unknown since the civil war. I think Get clues from you."
"Unfortunately, there are no relevant clues in my current records." Valima snorted humanely.
"So, is there anyone who might know?" Rean asked the next best thing.
"Most likely it was former starter Dry Kells, but he's dead."
"Drekels is indeed dead, and he does know it. But his soul did not leave this world, but was reincarnated into another person. That person you also met, Gillias Osborne."
"Gilias!" There was obvious wavering in Valima's voice, "I remember he is yours..."
"He is my biological father. My ability to become your 'initiator' is probably related to him."
A long sigh.
At this time before his comeback, he had a bad opinion of his biological father, but after knowing all the reasons, although Rean still couldn't accept some of his actions, he had more understanding and admiration.
Especially the choice he made to save his young self.
I hope this time, I can give him a different ending.
Feeling the change in Rean's mood, Valima said.
"Whether it is or not, my current initiator is you, Rean."
"Thank you, Valima."
The Rider and the Initiator are closely linked, inseparable, and irreplaceable partners.
If Rean wanted to, Valimar could turn on the previous initiate without hesitation.
As for Valima, Rean also trusted her wholeheartedly and did not hide the changes that happened to her.
"Other than him, who else might have a clue?"
"I don't have the memory of Drekels for the time being. If it's not the initiator, it may only be the two major dependents who are closely related to us, the witch and the goblin. If the witch is -"
"Emma shouldn't know."
Emma was Rean's classmate in the military academy, the monitor of the old Class VII, and the witch who led him to meet Valima. It's just that her qualifications are relatively junior, her strength is relatively weak, and she doesn't know much about the inside story.
"The witch's elder Roselle is temporarily out of reach... Do you think Emma's predecessor knows anything?"
"The previous witch is dead." Valima always spoke directly.
"Although it is inappropriate to say this, the conditions of death are more powerful for me. Valima, let me tell you a secret. Not only did I see the future, I also received gifts from a mysterious being, one of whom was named ' The ability of Heroic Spirit Summoning can summon the souls of dead heroes into this world and give them a second life."
This is the ability that was suddenly given to me after my comeback, along with the summoning methods and various rules that appeared directly in my brain.
"I originally thought about giving it a try in two days, so let's do it tonight. The rules say that direct summoning will summon the servant with the best compatibility with the summoner. If you want to summon a specific servant, you need to be related to it. The catalyst - Valima must have seen other witches, but it is also possible that he summoned an earlier initiator... Yes, wait for me for a while and I will be back soon."
Rean's eyes lit up, and he quickly left the hangar, returned to the dormitory along the same route, and pulled out a photo album from the desk he had just arranged.
Turning to the first page, there is a photo of Class VII and related people. This is a photo album from Li En's student days, carrying various memories of his.
Not caring about missing his youth, Li En hurriedly turned to one of the pages, took out a single photo, put it together in his hands, and prayed in a low voice.
"Emma, please."
After saying that, he put away the photo album, returned to the hangar again, and began to arrange the "Summoning of Heroic Spirits" ceremony.
