Chapter 225 Concept and Power
"very good!"
This was the first time Erica heard Roland praise her since they met.
Although this seemed to imply that Liliana's safety had been guaranteed, Roland's performance still made Erica feel a little sore, as if something that only she had had been taken away.
But Erica, whose thoughts were complicated, quickly adjusted her mentality and smiled happily.
Roland didn't think so much. He was indeed very satisfied with Erica.
The Little Holy Grail in his hand is a remnant of the Fourth Holy Grail War. Because he protected it very well this time, the Little Holy Grail has completed its duties safely. In addition to consuming some durability due to the storage of souls and transfer, Still generally in good condition.
Originally, Roland only regarded it as a prepared collection, but unexpectedly, when he came to the world of God Killer and tried using magic, Roland felt something was wrong.
All of his magic can be used in this world without any hindrance. Considering that there are also magicians and spells in God Killer, this is not particularly surprising.
But if it is a commonly used magic base, that's it. But after harvesting Andre's memory, Roland discovered the strangeness of this world.
In Xingyue's world view, with the demise of mystery, magic is constantly degenerating, the foundation is declining, and the gods are disappearing, so that arrogant, old-fashioned, and conservative existences such as magicians have to recognize modern magic and put it into practice. Add the Clock Tower as a prescient preparation for the future.
But in the world of God Killers, various strange sects, those who believe in ancient religions, those who believe in evil gods, and even knights who believe in demon gods such as the Red Bronze Black Cross can be passed down, which is a bit strange.
After discovering that the few unique Machiri spells in the seal could be used without any hindrance, Roland realized that although these spells had never appeared in this world, the mysteries and concepts they possessed were unknown to the world. admittedly.
Take the Small Holy Grail, for example. Roland, who knew it thoroughly, knew that it was a human-shaped vessel deliberately created by Einzbern. It could only temporarily store souls, waiting to be transferred to the Great Holy Grail.
After discovering that the Holy Grail began to spontaneously absorb the magic power around it, its mystery skyrocketed, it began to repair damage, and it had some functions that were not what it was supposed to have, Roland understood.
The same concepts are empowered by the world itself.
Just like human beings weave myths with faith,
It is the same as giving strength to the disobedient god.
After confirming this, Roland was completely relieved about the abnormality he felt.
Power is also a concept, and divine tools are also concepts. The dark rituals engraved in the world are connected one by one in his mind, and finally weave into a large web.
There are variables, there are dangers, but it will be very interesting.
"In other words, Liliana, although this is a fake of the Holy Grail, it does have power, right?"
Liliana nodded.
"My honor guarantees that there is no falsehood. This little Holy Grail is indeed a fake, but it is also a genuine divine tool. If it is used as a sacrifice, it is very likely to call out those who once chased the Holy Grail in the myth. God’s, and they’re all dangerous.”
Liliana didn't say the whole second half of her sentence, but both Roland and Erica understood its meaning. In legends related to the pursuit of the Holy Grail, heroes and gods often appear. Compared with conventional gods, They generally have the characteristics of steel and are very tricky beings.
"I see."
Roland's tone was leisurely, without fear or excitement, as if this was just an ordinary fact.
This made Liliana feel a little scared. She said a little too much. Such an excellent divine tool would be a waste if it were not used to summon the God of Disobedience, not to mention that this was a madman who wanted to kill the God actively.
If he asked the King of Swords to summon witches for the seance ceremony, wouldn't it bring irreparable disaster to Milan and even the whole of Italy?
For the first time, the girl complained about the sincerity she took for granted.
Fortunately, Roland just glanced at her and quickly took back the Little Holy Grail.
"As a reward for you, from now on, you are free. Neither you nor Erica need to participate in my God-killing process. If Donnie asks, just say it was my order."
Roland waved his hand, left the soft-smelling Erica, and sank into the bath again.
Anyway, these two girls can't play any role, so it doesn't hurt to let them go. Roland has always been very tolerant in such trivial matters.
"Now, leave."
It was obviously Erica's mansion, but Roland acted as if he was at home.
Erica and Liliana, who had just gotten rid of their restraints, naturally would not cause trouble here without understanding. They retreated with low eyebrows, and did not relax completely until they walked out of the bath.
"Lily, I'm going to change my mind about you," Erica sighed in an exaggerated manner, holding her friend's hand, "I usually thought that you acted stupidly because you were inexperienced and naive, but now It seems that that is your nature."
Hearing Erica's words, Liliana's crystal clear skin turned pink due to shame. After leaving the warm bath and being blown by the cold wind, she realized that she was indeed a bit reckless, using a sheep to enter a tiger's mouth. It cannot be overstated.
"You are the cunning female fox. Why don't you show off your wisdom in front of Your Excellency?"
Liliana retorted subconsciously, then looked at Erica's thoughtful expression and frowned.
"You don't think that Your Excellency really has the strength to defeat the God of Disobedience, do you?"
Considering everything she had experienced today, Liliana quickly guessed the truth.
"That's right," Erica admitted this readily, "At least, I don't think he will die just like that."
"What's the reason?"
"I don't know either. All in all, it's just a woman's intuition."
"Eh?" Liliana showed a suspicious expression and shrank subconsciously. The expression on Erica's face now was exactly the same as when she wanted to tease someone before.
"Forget it, no matter what, you finally have a reasonable reason to escape. Although the King of Swords is unreasonable, he is not like the Marquis of Vauban and will not liquidate you."
Liliana said this, and just as she was about to leave, she was stopped by Erica who stopped in place.
"I'm sorry, Lily, I'm afraid you can't leave just yet." A sly smile appeared on Erica's face, "Although we have been liberated, Milan is not there yet. Lord Roland has confirmed the divine tool and prepared it. Now that we are well prepared, it is probably imminent to summon the God of Disobedience. As great knights, it is our duty to protect innocent people."
"Well," Liliana stopped when she was poked. "In other words, no matter what, do we have to witness this scene?"
Erica nodded gently, but there was no hint of joking on her delicate and pretty face. Under the moonlight, her skin reflected a beautiful luster, and her pupils were like a burning flame.
"Yes, to witness the death of a disobedient god, or
——The birth of a demon king. "
