"I understand more and more why I am incompatible with you."
Looking at the crying girl in his arms, Li Ke understood the answer to this question more and more.
He came here just to work, even for fun, but unfortunately, other people did things with the belief that they would die.
It's like the awkward feeling you get when you look up while playing TikTok on your phone and suddenly realize that everyone is studying seriously.
Although he can indeed say cool words and make himself look handsome, this gap in belief still makes him act like a random kid who bullies others based on his strength.
But the problem is that there is really nothing that he needs to risk his life for in this world.
If Li Ke is facing an enemy who endangers his family and children, if Li Ke knows that no matter how much he develops, he will not be able to defeat the opponent. He would not hesitate to send his family and children away at the cost of his own life. But in this world, he has no such object, and he has no will to risk his life for the act of testing humans.
That's why he always felt embarrassed and had nothing to do.
While others acted according to their own will and died without regrets, he could only idle around and wait for the other party to fight with him.
No one likes to be annoyed by a strong brat while they are working hard.
Fujimaru Ritsuka hates him and Li Ke can accept it even if he curses him, because in his plan, he will eventually fall at the hands of the other party. At that time, the other party will hate him or be disgusted with him. They will all dissipate as they fall and strengthen the opponent's will.
But he didn't know what to do if he cried.
To him, this was an innocent crime. He had done nothing wrong. In fact, no one could accuse him of doing anything wrong. He is just a part-time worker. He has no responsibilities or anything to feel guilty about. What he should be most responsible for is the world, not a crying little girl.
For him, it was just a sense of guilt that shouldn't be caused by these subtle emotions.
"Although I really want to say yes and then pretend to paddle to get your body. After all, you are also a cute girl, but it can't be done."
Li Ke gently stroked the other person's head. He no longer used it. His invincible brain began to rotate and he understood everything.
"I (should) be your sin."
Regarding this trial, Li Ke also thought a lot in his spare time, that is, what kind of characteristics does the master of Chaldea need to be able to lead everyone through it.
And the final conclusion is...
The innocent executioner.
You must be aware of destroying other people's happiness, but you must also have the determination to continue doing so and believe that you are right. Even if he knows that his hands are full of the blood of innocent people, he can still go on and still go on what he thinks is the right path. Being able to draw the sword firmly even when he knows that he cannot do anything.
Li Ke had discovered before that she was different from the enemies she had faced before. She did not do evil or do many strange things. The residents ruled by Morgan were also very happy.
Therefore, the Chaldeans who come to destroy this singularity are executioners, world-destroying demons. But for those humans on Earth who disappeared, the Chaldeans were doing the right thing and were the saviors.
The test he sent down was not so much a test of force as a test of the Chaldean Master's heart. If the opponent can't cross it, maybe it's better to fall before defeating the Demon King, so as not to have to endure the mental torture of the Lostbelt later, and then fail because of it.
"So, I won't take action against you, and I won't let you go. Try your best to defeat me."
Li Ke knew that what he said was very cruel to the girl, but Li Ke said it anyway.
First of all, his duty is to impose a trial, and he cannot stop just because the girl cries. This is irresponsible. Even if she lets go, she must show her will.
Second, he promised Morgan that he would fight for her for a month no matter what. This was a promise that must be fulfilled.
Third, it is better for the girl to step over his body. He will be merciful to the girl and even tolerate her crying and excessive behavior, but what about her future enemies?
"But now, you can cry in my arms for a while, without worrying about enemies or responsibilities...but not for too long, because holding a cute girl like you will make me tempted."
Gently holding the crying girl in his arms, Li Ke felt very calm inside.
But just when the girl fell silent and let tears flow on his chest, Li Ke felt that there were strange signs in his body.
The dragon scales (defense) on the chest, which had been shed by tears, began to fall off.
…………
"So, they failed?"
The blond Athena looked at Merlin who was telling the story of the berserker, frowning and wanting to say something, but she still sighed.
"Yes, it failed. Facing a perfect world, a world where everything you expected exists, it is natural that you will fail. So after saving the world again, facing the impeccable Victory, but the Chaldean Master’s heart is dead. Human beings have life limits after all.”
Merlin's expression remained as usual, even though he was talking about the cruel reality, he still looked calm.
"Before his heart died completely, and before he faced the final enemy, the Chaldean Master saw a Chaldea who had defeated the Demon King and the Alien God without any sacrifice or sorrow, and as long as he gave up , this Chaldea can continue to exist. The doctor named Roman does not need to die, the director of Chaldea does not need to die, those in the Lost Belt do not need to die, and humans do not need to die. Everyone survives, And being around him.”
He paused and then told another Chaldean story again, which was a desperate scene he saw in the boy's dream.
The boy strangled Matthew and himself in the other world with his own hands, but Matthew did not hurt him in the end. On the contrary, he almost killed him in the other world because of his hatred for Matthew's death.
"How could the young man who saved the world resist such a trap? Even though he cried in the end and destroyed everything he cherished and longed for, his heart was already scarred, like broken porcelain, and there was no way forward. It’s possible.”
This is complete malice, the alien god's revenge on those who interfered with his plans. Even though the Master of Chaldea has transcended the past, the scars in his heart still exist.
This is also the reason why the other party did not die but still became a heroic spirit.
If the mind is dead, even if the body is still alive, what is the difference between it and 'dead'?
But here is the sad part, because even if the boy has given up, the crisis is not over yet.
The world and humanity still need him.
