i used to be a devil

Yirang's sudden appearance that night was like a hallucination.

When those light elements disappeared, Rosemil seemed to wake up suddenly from a long distraction.

The light in front of him suddenly disappeared, and he froze for a long time before recovering.

Nothing seemed to move around.

There is no poured tea in front of you, nor any remaining magic.

Rosemere felt that he was probably hallucinating.

For a moment, he was a little unclear about what he was thinking. Rosemir pressed his forehead and held up the lit lighting technique. He lit the candle on the table.

After that, relying on magic power to light up all the other candles.

In this way, the whole room is brightened - just completely different from the scene illuminated by the element of light.

Thinking of this, Rosemil couldn't help moving his hands, but following this movement, he accidentally touched a book on the table—this book was taken out by Yi Rang from the shelf that day. It was also this book that Yirang put back casually, but turned the whole book down, that made Rosemere suddenly come to his senses, sure...

That day, Yi Rang was here.

"..."

The events of the past few days have undergone a completely different change from Yi Rang's sudden appearance a few days ago.

The current "Borodore" is actually Yirang, that is to say, the monster that I saw a few days later was released by Yirang-according to the statement at the time, it was the teacher who was an apprentice who asked him to transfer The incantation of the spell is fully spoken—

Although it is said that those who do not know are not guilty, but—is it okay to let the gods do a complete chant? !

Thinking of this, Rosemere thought of another person.

Su Ge re-selected the body.

For the previous physical defect, Socrates didn't do anything a while ago, but recently, he has other plans——

"Hey--"

The more I think about things, the more I feel depressed.Rosemere moved, and when he touched the book on the side of the table, he paused when he wanted to clench his fist and hammer the table.

Instead, he spread his hands and patted the cover of the book, not knowing what to think.

This is what Yirang saw when she appeared in the room without a sound.Rosemil was upset about something, but Yi Rang suddenly remembered this person on a whim, "It seems that I came at the wrong time?"

"……you?!"

Smiling slightly sideways, Yi Rang looked at the person in front of him who he suddenly remembered for some reason. After seeing him, he suddenly panicked and didn't know what to do, but his mood became more and more smooth, with the corners of his mouth curved It is also rising.

In Yi Ran's opinion, there was always something special about the person in front of him: Rosemil Doyat.

It's just that I can't tell where it is in particular.

While still thinking this way, Yi Rang had already moved two steps forward and stopped in front of Rosemir, with only a not-so-wide mahogany table between them.

"..."

Rosemere was a little nervous.

Yi Rang stepped forward suddenly just now, and he subconsciously moved back a few minutes, but now that he was staring at him for a long time, Rosemir was a little awkward, and then his face became hot because of nervousness and his heartbeat accelerated.

It feels like being reviewed by an adult when you were young.

The reason for this shift cannot be explained.

Rosemir was stared at by Yirang for a long time, and finally couldn't sit still. He got up from the chair as if he had been stabbed by something, took two steps back and opened the distance again, and then he stammered nervously and said, "Is there anything wrong, Yirang?" His Majesty."

"The name has been changed."

"Ah I……"

"Speaking of which, I still think you were cuter in the past."

"Please stop teasing me!"

"..."

"..."

There was a smile on the corner of Yirang's mouth, but all the following words stopped.

He just still had a smile on his face, but no real emotion could be seen through those eyes.I don't know the emotions, and I can't feel the changes in the emotions, and the more this is the case, the more people will be at a loss when facing it.

"It's really similar." Yi Rang murmured to himself, and Yi Rang's murmur became indistinct with a slight nod of his head.

Not much fell into Rosemere's ears.

Before that, Yi Rang thought it was just an illusion, but after making choices about everything now, Yi Rang could feel the small sounds in his ears, about the small sounds made when the rules of this world were running.

He was familiar with that voice—it was all in his long memory.

It's just that when Yi Rang often hears that kind of voice, there is nothing in this world.

Rosemir stood in this silence for a long time before continuing to speak: "The first god Socra has come..." I always feel that I should say something at this time, but I can't figure out why I said these things .

Just facing Yi Rang's indistinct expression in front of him, Rosemir felt that he should do this.

Tell me what you know.

"I know." He turned around and sat down on the orderly arranged chairs beside him, still scanning the entire room with great interest.

This place looks a little strange, but after looking around, I don't know why it looks pleasing to the eye.Thinking of this, Yirang simply turned to look at Rosemere.

I didn't feel it before, but when I look at it now, I feel a little different.

Rosemere is very much like Socrates.

"I know everything you want to say." Yi Rang's answer made Socrate unable to say anything later. When she was racking her brains to think about what else she could say, Yi Rang seemed to no longer want to stay here. Instead of going around in circles on this kind of issue, he said the topic directly, "In this kind of thing, you never have the right to choose."

"..."

Yi Rang's answer was very direct, so direct that some people didn't know how to respond.

It's like there is a piece of paper in front of them. If they don't pierce it completely, they can deceive themselves and others that this matter is something they can worry about.

What kind of result this matter will have, in fact, Rosemere is very clear.

It has been clearly written in the holy scriptures of the church——

The gods never pursued the sins of the betrayer, and never severely criticized the behavior of the betrayer.

But the traitor still chooses to be hostile.

Rosemere's mind was quickly flashing through some of the words that appeared on the holy scriptures.

It was a book whose source could not be verified at all. Even according to the legend, it was already in the church before the war between the First God and Iran.

On this point, Rosemil and Iobi have verified it.

The answer was affirmative: The Holy Kingdom once possessed the holy scriptures and was able to predict the future.

It's just that this can predict the future, and it was only after Sucra Yuyjan went to war that the church personnel deduced the meaning from it...

The Holy Book of the Church—

I don't know how I suddenly fell on this thing.

No one knows the origin of the holy scriptures of the church, but there is a saying from the very beginning: it is the record left by the first God.

And on this point, Rosemere was noncommittal.Because Socrates knew about the existence of this thing, and Rosemir observed it, and he still remembered Socrates' look after flipping this thing again.

He felt that this claim should be rejected.

But when everyone was telling him that the things mentioned in the scriptures were being realized one by one, he also became uncertain about this matter.

Rosemere's mind ran through a lot of random thoughts, and finally fell back on the sentence that Yi Ran said, and even asked in a tone that sounded stupid to himself: "You will fight him."

Yirang sat there, calm and indifferent, and when he heard Rosemil's question, he still smiled and replied: "Yes."

"You can't kill him!" There was a feeling of being suddenly hit in my heart. Rosemil said this sentence without thinking, and then met Shang Yirang's eyes waiting for the second half of his words, and suddenly When I came back to my senses, I didn't know what happened to the sentence I just blurted out.

"..." Yirang looked at him with a smile on his lips, and Rosemil calmed down in a few breaths.

He straightened out his emotions, sorted out the tens of thousands of thoughts in his head, and then said: "If you are still alive, the first god will return to this world after all, that is to say... "

You can only die together.

"I can only die with him."

Totally irrefutable results.

Rosemir didn't even know how to refute one more sentence to make Yirang change his mind, and he even remembered a sentence from the holy scriptures inappropriately.

【You can't stay here forever... If I'm not here, you can't come here. 】

There is no room for turning things around.

The emotion of seeing Yi Rang again at the beginning has completely changed from the initial joy to another extreme and terrible mood.

It wasn't until this moment that Rosemir looked at Yirang who still had a smile on his face before he was sure of one thing...

That is god.

They created everything, and they have the potential to destroy everything.

People under it, no matter how they struggle, have no possibility to resist.

It's not even cruel.

Have you ever cut a gemstone with magical elements?

Whether it's cutting or grinding it to collect magic power, when doing it, you don't use any thoughts, just do it simply because you want to do it, and sometimes you don't even need a reason.

And everything in this world is almost the same for gods.

Many thoughts flashed through Rosemere's mind at such times.

Yirang kept sitting in a slightly lower position, looking at Rosemere's urgent look as if being driven by something terrible, he didn't know what he thought of.

And Rosemir, who didn't think of any reason to convince the other party, could only ask the next best thing: "Will there be a war in the imperial capital?"

"Do you think you can avoid it?"

Rosemere didn't deny it.

In his perception, there was nothing wrong with this choice.

Yirang fought Socra once, and after that time, didn't the human world still exist safely in this world?

The last war between the gods didn't destroy everything, so Rosemere didn't think there would be a worse result this time.

Rosemere didn't have the confidence to ask a similar rhetorical question like "Isn't it?"

It's just that there is a vague outline in my heart, but Rosemil doesn't dare to reveal it.

Yi Rang didn't say anything else, he just moved his gaze away from Rosemere, and after passing him, he didn't know where he landed a little far away, and then he still smiled and said: "How about we stop here today? "

"..." Rosemir looked back along the line of sight: except for the usual furnishings in the room, he didn't find anything special.

He couldn't help but looked at Yi Rang again to make sure, but he was the only one left in the room.

There was nothing around, as if the person who had talked to him so much just now had never appeared.

Only in the seat where Yi Rang sat before, the pillow that was originally placed has moved.

……

After that time move on.

There are still many things that Rosemir needs to do every day - after all, as the bishop of the church, there are many things that he needs to personally ask.

And during this period of time, Yi Ran would suddenly appear in Rosemir's room in the church from time to time.

From being uncertain at the beginning, Rosemir even made a pot of black tea and waited to entertain Yirang.

Yirang's appearance is irregular—but it's always during the day.

And he didn't come here only when Rosemere was around.

This point was discovered after Rosemere returned from a trip and discovered that the black tea he had prepared had changed.

As for these details, when Rosemir discovered that Yiran's visits had become more frequent, Rosemir had to think about the "battle of the gods" again.

This year's beast horde has not been delayed for nearly a month, which became the last reason why he finally decided to have an audience with the royal family.

The specific content was not discussed too much, but a hypothesis that had not been mentioned before was raised at this time, which gave the royal family who had been preparing for it a definite signal at this time.

"You told them?"

"!!!"

The spell book in Rosemere's hand was almost torn apart by him, but he calmed down after realizing the voice of the other party.

"..." Taking a deep breath, Rosemere looked in the direction of the voice.

I saw Yirang standing by the window, the black tea in his hand seemed to be freshly brewed by Rosemere before he left, and under the blessing of the spell, the temperature was kept at just the right value.

"You know?" Taking a deep breath, Rosemil walked towards Yirang, but the latter raised the teacup in his hand towards him, and answered as if completely out of context, "I've been forgetting to say, make black tea. Not bad."

It doesn't matter if you answer or not.

For Rosemere, Yi Ran's reaction was the answer.Seeing that the other party is using a face that he feels familiar to him, but now it seems that he can't relate to "Borodore" at all, he lowers his eyes slightly, and follows what Yi Rang said just now, and changes the subject, "I I thought it was just a habit, but I didn't expect you to like it too."

"..." Although the words were not clear, Yi Rang was very clear about what the person in front of him was saying under the surface.Yirang stared at Rosemere for a few seconds, then retracted his gaze and looked down from the window.

The stained glass of the church casts another color on the light and scenery outside it.

It doesn't seem like today is the right time either.

Thinking so, Yirang walked away from the window and walked towards the direction where Rosemir was standing.After using the empty teacup, he casually placed it on Rosemere's desk, and he replied casually: "I never liked this before."

According to what is written in the holy scriptures.

Believers once offered various items to the first god, and the first god chose black tea among them and praised the believers.

"It's just that you seem to like it."——The only stock here is black tea, and every time it is brewed.

Rosemir was a little stunned by this question, and could only reply with some stumbles: "Yes, yes."

After hearing this answer, Yi Rang smiled at him, "Then I think I like it too."

"...!!"

The voice was like a feather shaking in the air and finally slowly falling, and the tip seemed to be able to make the listener feel as if it had been scratched slightly like the tip of the heart.

Rosemere could only freeze in place and listen to the words dissipate into the air with the last sound, and Yi Ran had long since disappeared from sight.

……

The tension that would have been brought about by the approaching date of the beast horde was taken away inch by inch as Yi Rang's previous words were confirmed.

Yi Ran would still appear in the church from time to time, and Rosemil felt that he was waiting for something.

He had a general answer in his heart, but somehow he couldn't grasp it no matter what.

After the audience of Rosemere, the royal family said that they would take measures, but did not see any action.

When the rainy season was over, Rosemere also gradually changed from panic to other thoughts—what he thought was that maybe Yirang had other plans.

Now that the crisis of the beast horde is certain to be contacted, Rosemere can suddenly free up most of the time. At this time, there is also a short period of rest.

There is no sign of Yirang today.

The black tea that was brewed had already been changed several times. After subconsciously looking at the sky outside the window, Rosemil leaned on the seat to confirm this, and moved his limbs slightly.

The palm of his hand moved away a little, just touching the book that he deliberately took to the table a while ago, Rosemere paused.He didn't know what he was thinking, so he paused for a while. Rosemir stretched out his hand and rested his fingertips on the title page, when he heard someone at the door say, "Mythical calendar—you suddenly became interested in this thing?"

"...!"

The sudden voice brought Rosemir back to his senses. He instinctively turned the book in his hand backwards, pressed the front of the book against the table, and looked nervously at the person in front of him.

I have seen this young man's face many times, but this is the first time that he has an inexplicable sense of alertness.

"The first volume is still unfinished." Socrates didn't spend too much energy paying attention to the emotion of the former "clothes" in front of him, but casually brushed away Rosemil's hand that was pressing on the title page, and took the book away. I got up and flipped through it roughly, "This is very interesting, are you planning to wait until the end of Yirang and I, and then compile the next volume?"

"Why are you here suddenly?"

Instead of answering Socrates' question, Rosemil asked another question.

As for Socra's itinerary, I have to say that Rosemere is somewhat familiar with it.Not long ago, Socra arranged for someone to find a new body for him.

And now it seems to have a clue.

If this matter is successful, it means that if Yi Rang really goes to war with him one day, the possibility of the situation getting out of hand will increase a lot.

As if Yirang didn't care, Socrates' eyes still fell on the book in Rosemir's hand, and continued to bring up the topic on his own, and said slowly: "Cassitia has a strange wave of magic power. .”

This Rosemere knew.

It didn't appear so long ago, and he could even think that the anomaly was caused by Yi Rang.

It's just that this is just speculation, but there is no definite evidence.

After turning over two or three pages, Socrates put the book in his hand back to its original position. Looking at the human beings in front of him, he suddenly thought of many things——

Such as the past, such as memories, such as when Yi Rang opened his eyes in front of him again, or——

The person he never waited for from the beginning to the end...

"It should be just the fluctuation of the magic circle. The mages of the tower have researched some new tricks."

Sucra suddenly laughed, with the same arc on the corner of his mouth as Rosemere, he directly denied Rosemere's words, and calmly stated: "Recently, there are rumors about the dungeon in the poor area outside this place. Sitia's underground has been hollowed out—"

"Those who are told in the stories of the bards of mankind are in contact with the priests who started their respective activities."

"You've seen him, haven't you?"

——Once upon a time...

……
