The celebration is going on inside and outside the castle. After the morning ceremony, there will be a grand parade of floats and various traditional celebrations in the square. Almost everyone in the city has the opportunity to relax on this day. The newly designed ceremony will undoubtedly push the enthusiasm of the celebration to its peak.

But the new head of state of the empire does not have to attend the following events until the dinner begins.

Gao Wen sat quietly in the room. He didn't open the curtains or turn on the lights. He let a dim and quiet environment slowly surround himself. The sound of celebration inside and outside the castle faintly reached his ears. There was a mix of music, laughter, dance steps, and the sound of magic fireworks bursting. These sounds were distant and ethereal, so much so that their presence accentuated the silence of the room.

Through observation and inquiry of Melita Purnia, he can finally confirm that the black trap is indeed related to the gods, and that some of the measures in the disobedience plan are indeed effective in avoiding the black trap.

Of course, Gawain had already made a guess before that, but until today, the guess has not been verified.

In the dark and silent room, he curled his fingers and tapped the table lightly and rhythmically.

"The dragons are still trapped in the black trap... It's not that they didn't encounter the black trap, but were 'stuck' in this state after encountering the black trap..." He had various thoughts in his mind, "They Also tried 'disobedience' and failed? Was it discovered by God, or...

"Unfortunately, there is no way to ask. Looking at Melita's state, I am afraid that any dragon who knows about it will not be able to answer this question... When Melita tried to tell the information about the black trap and the gods, the changes that happened to her what exactly is it?

"Is it the interference of the gods? Or... a manifestation of the Mind Stamp? If the attempt to break through the black trap fails, will the Mind Stamp become a power that can be embodied?

"If this is the case, then you must be more careful in every step that goes against the plan... Even the giant dragon can't break free from its shackles. Once human beings fall into the state of the steel seal, they will definitely be doomed."

The unconscious tapping stopped, Gawain turned his head slightly and looked at the open space next to him: "I'm almost done with melon seeds? Drink some water and don't eat it, there is a banquet at night."

Amber's figure emerged from the air, holding the last few melon seeds in her hands, and the skins of the seeds under her feet. She looked at Gao Wen with wide eyes, dissatisfied: "Can't you occasionally pretend that you didn't find me? I A dignified stalker also has professional dignity!"

"You are a dignified guard,

In the room of the head of the empire, you knocked down two pounds of sunflower seeds in an hour, and you told me that you have professional dignity? "Gao Wen glared at the other party, "I cleaned up myself, on the first day of my coronation, I can't let the palace archives leave "the head of the empire ate two pounds of melon seeds for unknown reasons after returning to the room on the first day of his coronation". Record. "

Amber threw away the last bit of the melon seed rind, clapped his hands, and then used his toes to gather the melon seed rinds on the ground together, and whispered in a low voice: "I regret not listening to you to see what you wrote. Now...what did you give that agent?"

"...It's just some knowledge left to future generations."

Amber looked at Gawain fixedly: "But why do you guys talk about overthrowing the empire? Even... about overthrowing you or something..."

Gawain pondered, and sighed Yoyo: "Yeah... I didn't expect that I would do these things."

Why did he come to this day, and how he plans to continue going on tomorrow, Gawain has always been very clear about this, but in this clear path, not everything develops as he expected. of.

At the beginning, his goal was very simple. He just wanted to live. After tens of millions of years of loneliness, he was finally able to stand on the earth in human form again. This was for him at that time. What a surprise, he wants to live and live in human form - but it is not as easy as imagined to survive in this world.

In order to leave the ruins of old Cecil alive, he had to take a few picked up descendants and entourage to fight a bloody road; in order to find a place to stand in this era, he had to take the identity of Gawain Cecil, with The refugees carve out a land; he must allow his power to grow in order to deal with the tides that come at no time, in order to deal with the threats of neighboring countries...

This is a road that cannot be stopped, and Gawain himself did not want it to stop.

After all, he is not a quiet person in his bones. He has such a rare opportunity to live again, and he is not willing to live on.

But as he lived longer in this world and had more contact with those who had flesh and blood, he found that he had become more and more unable to get rid of the influence of this "re-living".

Responsibility is an innate thing. When he chose to take over the legacy of Gawain Cecil, he was destined to take on the responsibility that accompanied it. After he personally promoted the fate of many people, The responsibility itself is his own.

He didn't know when his mentality gradually changed, but he knew that he had done so many things along the way, and his mentality would inevitably change accordingly - no change would make him doubt whether he had been "satellite" or not. Completely remodeled, he suspects that he looks like a flesh-and-blood person on the outside, but inside is a bloodless machine.

After laying down the eastern area of ​​the Holy Spirit Plain and entering the Silver Castle, after a long talk with Wales Moen and looking back at the way he had come, Gawain realized that his goal was not just "living". Simple.

He wants to live, and there are countless people relying on him to live, and even at this stage, the order of the entire magic industry society depends on him to live - this is also true in reverse, he can reach this position, Relying on these countless people and things.

It's a massive symbiotic relationship, at least for now.

Therefore, if Gao Wen wanted to do a big job, it was not in vain, and it was worthy of his efforts so far.

As for other than that, what other factors are driving Gawain to continue on this path... that is something that even he can't understand.

He shook his head and smiled at Amber: "Probably because my ambitions are too big, and the things I pursue are too shocking."

"...I don't understand what you're thinking about, but since it's what you did, it must make sense," Amber scratched his hair, and quickly threw some things he didn't understand to his mind Afterwards, "I'll be watching from the side anyway, and I can always see what you want to do."

Gawain glanced at the half-elf: "You are very generous."

Amber raised his chest proudly instead of being ashamed: "This is my greatest strength."

Gawain shook his head with a smile, and then said half-jokingly: "Don't talk about this, you said last time that you would pray to your gods and ask the truth, what did you ask?"

He just asked casually, and didn't expect Amber to give any answer. After all, it is easier to contact the gods. Even if this guy is really a god's choice, it will take a long time to prepare and be good enough to listen to the oracle directly. Luckily - at least all other churches do.

But he didn't expect Amber to immediately nodded: "I asked when I went back! But I didn't get the answer."

"Did you really ask?!" Gawain stared at him and stood up subconsciously, "Didn't ask for the answer? The Shadow Goddess didn't answer?"

"I didn't get through. The oracle said that 'the goddess is not on duty, I will contact you later'," Amber said solemnly, "According to my experience, this one 'later' will take at least a month..."

Gawain looked at the half-elf with a bewildered expression, but he didn't see the slightest joking intention on the other's face.

But the point is... what kind of "oracle" is this? Are the oracles that the Shadow Cult usually hears in this format? It's unlikely, is it?

"You... is this oracle considered normal?" Gawain felt the corners of his mouth tremble, but his tone was still calm.

Amber thought for a while, then nodded: "Actually, it's quite common. Although I have a good relationship with the goddess, the goddess doesn't always seem to be free to respond to me. Most of the time, this is the reply."

Gao Wen frowned slightly.

Let's not discuss whether Amber is talking nonsense or not, let's assume that what she said is true, does that mean... The Shadow Goddess wants to respond to the world, even if it is to respond to her "God's Choice" A very difficult thing?

With all kinds of speculations going around in his heart, Gawain asked again: "Then is there anything else besides this 'oracle'?"

Amber replied calmly: "Oh, yes, the goddess left me a recipe in advance, and let me study it after I go back..."

Gawain: "...Is there anything else?"

"Gone."

Gawain rubbed his forehead and felt an unprecedented headache. He looked at this half-elf with a very calm attitude and an exceptionally natural tone, but he still couldn't hold back his doubts: "Are you really the choice of the Shadow God? Are you sure? Isn't the oracle you're talking about a hallucination caused by drinking too much of the Shadow Elixir yourself?"

As expected, Amber immediately widened his eyes, staring at Gao Wen with an expression of "If I hadn't beat you today, I'd die with you today": "You can question my strength, but you can't question my faith! I'll tell you. How many times has it been..."

"I'm mainly curious," Gawain interrupted before the other party finished speaking, "Well, as a divine choice, you must at least have some otherworldly qualities, even if you cast a shadow domain magic or perform a miracle. OK, can you?"

"I can jump into the shadow realm with a backflip, what kind of shadow realm miracle do you want?" Amber stuck his waist and leaned forward with his upper body, as if he wanted to show a little aggressive momentum, but this led to She had to raise her neck at least 90 degrees to see Gawain's face, so that the overall posture was particularly funny, "Could it be that you want me to run into the shadow world right now and drag a shadow resident out, and perform the torture in front of you. The shadow dwellers beat up?"

"That's true, your shadow talent itself is a kind of miracle..." Gawain waved his hand, followed by a look of confusion, "But why do you have to perform and be beaten?"

Amber stuck his waist, plausibly said: "Nonsense! I can't beat it!"

"you……"

Gawain looked at the half-elf with brows twitching, and after a few seconds of speechlessness, he finally couldn't help laughing.

At this moment, the pressure of the black trap and the threat of the gods, the heavy responsibility of ruling an empire, the risks of the future and the difficulties of the road at hand, all seemed to vanish.

He smiled uncontrollably, laughing for half a minute, before taking a deep breath to calm down, but there was still a smile in the corners of his eyes: "Okay, this question will stop here for the time being, when you can contact your goddess Before that, let's not discuss it."

Amber frowned: "Although I said so, I always feel that you were laughing at me just now..."

"No, I'm just in a better mood all of a sudden." Gawain shook his head with a smile, then came to the window, waved his hand, and the curtains retreated to both sides.

Outside the window, the bright sun shines on Saint-Sunil, a celebration is being held in the square outside the castle, and a bonfire and magic show are also being prepared in the courtyard inside the castle. The ancient city is full of vitality on this day, and the flag is flying.

No matter what the future holds, today is a good day.

"Go to the courtyard to get some air."
