Lucifer sacrificed too much for world peace

Lucifer really worked hard to put the steam engine into use as soon as possible.

In fact, even if he took out a steam engine on the spot, it would be fine, and it would be better than the one just improved by this group of people, but that would be meaningless.

That's why he considered the parts problem a long time ago, and successfully used the [Persuasion] skill to make the alarm clock incorporate "parts processing" into his daily life, that is to say, during the time when he hired the alarm clock for 1 silver coin and 1 hour, let the alarm clock Parts are also ok.

[I think this is also a kind of squeeze. 】The alarm clock, who was somehow convinced, protested in his own way, 【In your ideal world, the most important thing to eliminate is this kind of oppression. 】

Lucifer replied without hesitation: "It's okay, you are not human, I use you as a tool."

Alarm clock:【……】

No matter how much he disagreed and agreed, the alarm clock still obediently did it.Lucifer took a look at the stack of design drawings that the group had changed all morning, and the alarm clock began to drop parts into a box.

"...What kind of ability is this?"

"Speaking of which, no one here studies spells."

"That kind of thing can't be researched... I don't understand the principle at all, and the church still says that God doesn't want us to study it."

"If you don't want us to study it, why don't you just give it to us? Wouldn't that be more convenient? I think it might be that our knowledge is not enough to understand the principle..."

A room full of scientists whispered.

It may be that everyone let go too much during the discussion before, and even subconsciously uttered such words that can only be quietly slandered in their hearts. Fortunately, they can still remember not to say such words out loud.

However, it was useless to lower the voice, Lucifer could hear it.

Scientists in this world still believe in God... That's right, the earth doesn't even have God's punishment, and there are still many scientists who can study theology and go to study theology. It will be more normal in this world.

However, this is also an opportunity... Talking to these people will be more effective than talking to the church.

Thinking of this, Lucifer suddenly spoke and joined the discussion of the scientists: "Of course there is a reason for God to allow humans to cast spells."

Everyone fell silent and turned to look at Lucifer.

Regarding this topic, it has been a mystery since thousands of years ago. Countless people have put forward countless conjectures, such as "God sees man as good," and so on... This conjecture once occupied the mainstream until the following As time went by, generations of human beings were born, but the power of spells became less and less powerful, and there were even people who died without using any kind of spells, so everyone shut up and no longer respected this guess.

After all, if it is because "God sees that man is good, so he gave mankind the ability to cast spells", then now that man is gradually losing the ability to cast spells, doesn't that mean that "God sees that man has become more sinful, and withdraws his favor"?

It's better not to mention this kind of face-slapping speculation.

So, why do humans gradually lose the ability to cast spells?

Some people can ignite fire, some people can change water, some people can accelerate the growth of plants, everyone helped each other and survived the difficult period of survival, but now, God seems to want to take back these.

People are restless and gradually weakened from generation to generation, and they are used to the transition from the ancestors who could easily create big fireballs to the present where they can only produce flames, but this problem has never really disappeared.

It is impossible to ask God, and I am too nervous to speak when facing the rare angel, and the truth is just missed in silence.

Under such circumstances, what can the great sage of Eden say?

"It's a 'light to light the way ahead'."

The sage with black hair and golden eyes sat in the corner, his voice was not high, but it could be clearly heard by everyone.

"Because humans who can't light fire have learned how to drill wood to make fire, there is no need for humans to have the ability to change fire; because humans who cannot control weight have invented cars, so the weight that can be controlled does not need so much; Because humans who can't control plants have cultivated fields and invented fertilizers, the ability to make plants grow faster is not so important..."

"There are fewer and fewer spells that humans can use. It's not that the gods have withdrawn their favor, but that humans have achieved the goal that God originally wanted to achieve—even if humans can no longer use any spells, they can survive independently and continue to grow." Very good."

"So, do you understand what you should do now?"

The great sage with golden eyes brighter than gold stood up from the chair, and approached the crowd step by step from the rear corner. The sense of oppression doubled as the distance decreased, but people looked at his dazzling body. They looked at each other, but they couldn't take their eyes off at all. Every word and every word of the other party seemed to be burned into their souls, full of power.

"Create faster cars so that people can travel freely around the world; use machines to free people from the tedious and repetitive work in factories, so that people can do more valuable things that only humans can do; create A ship that can sail to the far sea to see if there is an end of the world... Then, create an aircraft that can fly to the sky and explore the realm of the sky."

His originally pitch-black hair, after leaving the corner of the shadow, reflected a strange brilliance under the sunlight.

"You have to achieve the level that you can't even achieve the heyday of the spells that God bestowed on you, and exceed God's expectations of you, so that you will not waste your energy to create human beings - so that you will not live up to what God bestowed on you free."

"Human beings are loved by gods, don't doubt this, let go and do it!"

***

"...It really scared me."

Michael looked at the humans who were assembling the steam engine with the parts created by Lucifer, turned to Lucifer and said, "I thought you just recovered your memory."

"No." Lucifer calmly took out a book and placed it on his lap as a decoration, otherwise it would feel strange to have empty hands.

Satan also agreed in a low voice: "I also thought you had regained your memory... The aura just now is really like you before."

Lucifer: "...Really not."

"Look at you saying so swearingly that God the Father actually loves human beings very much, and you even plausibly said what God the Father is looking forward to... I almost believed it." Michael complained, "So what you said is true?"

"You don't know?" Lucifer couldn't help but asked.

Michael and Satan shook their heads at the same time.

"I only know that Father God really cares about human beings." Michael mused, "But if you want to say love... it feels far away, right? The only thing that can reflect the specialness of human beings is the freedom of not having to believe in God Father '? This kind of thing is completely dispensable, right?"

"Michael used to be stationed on the border of the world for a long time, rarely went to the human world, and didn't observe humans very much, so he didn't understand, but I knew." Satan said with a straight face, "Humans are actually not doing well at all. It's not as good as our angels. They just don't know how miserable they are, so they think it's happiness... So when you said just now, the outrageous words are unbelievable, but because they are too untrue, they doubt Did you recover your memory and know what..."

Satan is about to become a philosopher... Lucifer swallowed his complaints, and replied solemnly: "I really haven't recovered my memory, what I said just now..."

He frowned, and said uncertainly: "I can only say that my consciousness dominates, but some details and specific words... are actually not under my control..."

He immediately regained control after delivering his second-blowing speech, and questioned the alarm clock.

However, the alarm clock was also frightening: [It has nothing to do with me, Your Highness Lucifer! ! !You just blocked me! ! !I thought I was going to die! ! ! 】

"...??? So you don't know what happened to me just now?"

[Of course I don't know! 】The tone of the alarm clock is also rare panic, 【Isn't it because you have recovered your memory? 】

"No……"

[In short, this really has nothing to do with me, I didn't do anything. 】The alarm clock emphasized twice, 【I suggest you check your memory carefully. By the way, your hair changed color again just now. Fortunately, everyone didn't focus on that. 】

"Yeah, everyone's focus is on my second-year speech." Lucifer was expressionless, faintly breaking down, "Is this how I used to speak?"

The alarm clock comforted him: [Don't worry, maybe all angels speak like this...or follow theology.And look at those human beings, they were all mobilized by your speech, and now they are full of energy, no one feels embarrassed or ashamed for you...Only you who have been influenced by the earth's culture will be embarrassed...Look They are full of sages, and they know that they must be familiar with this tune. 】

"Thanks for the reassurance, I feel much better."

Saying those words in public is really an unbearable burden in life, but since everyone feels normal, then he can also relax.

Michael's guess was similar to an alarm clock: "Is your seal loose? Because Satan often accidentally called your real name and leaked it?"

Satan immediately became nervous: "I'm sorry! But I really didn't mean it, I'm just used to shouting... But it can't be my fault alone, Michael also shouted wrong several times!"

"Not as many times as you."

"That can't omit yourself."

"Enough." Lucifer held his forehead to stop the two of them from arguing, "I don't think this is the problem...the seal should be loosened slowly over time...you see."

As he said that, Lucifer untied the hair tie that tied his hair, and showed Satan and Michael a strand of hair: "It changed color again."

"It changed back in about 5 seconds just now, you now..." Michael frowned, "It's almost 10 seconds?"

"Yes."

This time it lasted for about 20 seconds, and the hair finally turned back to a jet-black color, but within 5 minutes, the situation was repeated again.

"The seal is unstable." Satan concluded, "Your seal and real name are linked together. If the seal is lifted, God the Father will know that you are back immediately—he must have been paying attention to the 'curse' of your name." .”

Lucifer sighed: "I guess so."

Now, Lucifer already knows why his former self sealed the memory.

Of course it's not because the idiot is playing off, but because to seal the name, it means to give up the existence of "Lucifer", that is, the memory... So it's not that he made the alarm clock call him a wrong time, But it was planned like this from the beginning, and I would go back to my hometown immediately after the immersive experience, without having to seal it again, which is very trouble-free.

... It's too much trouble, "Lucifer" in the past really trusted me, isn't she afraid that she might fail to learn during the immersive experience?

【Humans can believe in themselves, why can't you believe in yourself? 】The alarm clock spoke for Lucifer before amnesia, 【Although something went wrong, you did act as planned. 】

"It's planned..." Lucifer was silent, "Tell me, it's not me who designed the lottery pool."

【…】The alarm clock also fell silent, as if trying to play dumb.

"Don't pretend, you said before, the only thing you can know is what I instilled in you... I have nothing to do to instill management and game design concepts in you, and how to make customers spend money? It must be on purpose."

[This... sorry... but whether it's the lottery pool or the store, these are actually the backup methods you left before, in order to avoid accidents in the immersive experience...]

Lucifer who got a definite answer: "..."

Really strategizing, me before amnesia!Those who cheat themselves are too skilled! ! !
