Big octopus in the deep sea: I can evolve infinitely

Chapter 133 Freedom
"what!!!"

There were no worries, no disputes, only a cry of fear suddenly came from the beautiful, ideal paradise created by God.

On the lush green grass dotted with various flowers, the only perfect Eve in this world suddenly opened her eyes, her beautiful jewel-like eyes were filled with fear, and beside her, she heard her scream The man who was afraid of screaming looked at Eve blankly.

"Eve, why are you screaming in fear, what is it that scares you?"

"is God."

Eve looked at Adam and said softly.

"god?"

After listening to Eve's answer, Adam, who was somewhat at a loss, became even more confused. Why did God make Eve fear?
In his eyes, God is a tolerant and merciful God. He created everything and gave life to all things. God is like their father and is worthy of respect and worship. Why did Eve fear God? ?
Adam, who didn't understand, expressed his doubts, but this time Eve didn't say anything, but left Adam directly and began to search in the Garden of Eden.

She wants to find someone.

A giant who had appeared before her and then disappeared.

However, even though she searched the entire Garden of Eden, she still couldn't find the giant, as if the giant had already left the Garden of Eden.

The disappointed woman returned to Adam's side.

And although Adam didn't know why Eve was so afraid of God before, and he didn't know what Eve was looking for when she left him, but...it's good to be back, it's good for Eve to come back.

The two continued to live happily in the carefree Garden of Eden.

until a certain day.

……

"Do you know the answer to that question?"

Eve, who was dipping her hand in the water by the stream and stroking the dog's head, suddenly heard a voice. The voice was so familiar that Eve immediately turned around and recognized the owner of the voice at a glance. who is it.

Giant, Prometheus!

Facing Eve who turned around, the wise giant repeated his previous inquiry, "Do you know the answer to that question?"

"understood."

Eve nodded vigorously.

As a primitive person, a mother of all beings created by God, a woman who can realize everything she thinks and thinks in the beautiful, ideal paradise created by God in the Garden of Eden, she has seen God.

In her eyes at that time, God was indescribable by her own not-so-rich adjectives. If she insisted on describing it, it would be countless times thicker than the earth, infinitely larger than the sky, and infinitely larger than her. Everything I have seen is infinitely stronger.

Yes, in her eyes, gods are things, because she cannot classify gods. Gods are not people, nor animals, nor flowers and trees, the earth and sky, or even gods, but some kind of things that she is located in her cognition. something outside.

But no matter how grand, great, and indescribable God was at that time, she knew that God had no malice towards her. God had given her and Adam everything, the earth, air, water, and sky. Everything we have is given by God, and God is the true giver of everything.

However, when she believed in God, she saw another side of God.

Indifferent, cold, neither good nor evil, just like the fate that manipulates everything in the dark, no, it is not fate, but the big hand that fiddles with fate, the person who writes fate on paper with a woolen pen , anyone, anything is just something he wrote at will, a plaything at his fingertips.

If only, Eve would not have feared God.

What really makes her afraid of God is when she believes in God, she feels something eroding her will.

That kind of thing made me worship God irresistibly, believe in God for no reason, regard God as my everything, and be willing to give up everything for God.

And it was this kind of thing that would make her completely lose herself and become a puppet who only knew how to believe in God made her terrified and frightened.

Eve poured out her feelings exactly like the giant, and the giant sighed after listening to Eve's confession, "Sure enough, God, like Satan, is an existence that makes people completely lose themselves."

satan...

Eve, who heard a new name, immediately knew the meaning of the name Satan.

Satan is not a name but a title, a title for the enemy of God.

"Eve, do you want to be free?" Prometheus' gentle eyes filled with anticipation.

Eve, who heard Prometheus' inquiry, became confused.

"Freedom... am I not free now?"

"Of course you are free now. You can eat freely, drink freely, and sleep freely, but Eve, this is not real freedom." Prometheus said, pointing to the clear stream, "Look .”

Eve followed Prometheus' fingers, only to see a picture emerging from the clear stream.

In the picture, a white and clean pig is sleeping in a clean and bright pigsty.

When the pig wakes up, it starts to grunt and walk around the pigsty. When it is hungry, it goes to the trough to eat pig food, and when it is thirsty, it goes to the trough to drink water. This pig is so carefree so that Eve, a woman as carefree as a pig, frowned for the first time,
"You see, this pig in captivity also feels very free. It can eat and sleep when it is full every day, and eat when it wakes up. It is carefree and happy. In the eyes of pigs, it is very free, but Eve Ah, do you think this domestic animal named pig is really free?" The corners of Prometheus's mouth were slightly raised, and for the first time there was mockery and sarcasm in his usually peaceful and warm eyes.

"I'm different from it."

Eve retorted.

"What's the difference?"

"I don't live in a pigsty. My world is vast and bright."

The giant didn't speak, but just pointed with his finger, and the pigsty in the picture changed immediately, becoming an incomparably vast, incomparably bright...pigsty.

"I am accompanied by Adam, I am accompanied by birds, I have flowers and plants to admire, trees to talk about, and streams to play in..."

Eve continued to retort.

However, in response to her rebuttal, other little white pigs grew in the pigsty, birds, flowers, trees, and streams grew.

Seeing this, Eve, who was rebutting, couldn't help but be speechless.

But at this time, the giant laughed loudly, his smile was full of contempt and disdain, "Eve, you have to know one thing, no matter how beautiful and pleasing the Garden of Eden created by God is, one thing is for sure. It's still a cage, a cage that imprisons your free will."

"If anything, this wonderful Garden of Eden is a particularly gorgeous cage."

"But a cage is a cage. No matter how gorgeous and beautiful it is built, its essence is still a cage. This is beyond doubt."

With the voice of the giant, Eve didn't know how to refute.

She looked down at the picture in the stream for a while before asking, "So what do you mean by freedom? Is it beautiful?"

"No, it's not good, it's even bad." The giant said, "Being free means that you have to be your own master, just like a flock of captive sheep leaving their pasture to go to a new, more Wander in the vast world, and in that world, there will be no grass delivered to your mouth at a fixed point every day, and there will be no water source to clean you every day, everything needs to be obtained by yourself."

"In addition, you will also face the threat of wolves and hungry tigers, as well as diseases and plagues, and aging... After losing the protection of God, there are too many threats that can make the fragile human beings Life just dies."

"Then why do I want to be free?" Eve asked, "Here, I don't need to worry about food, I don't need to worry about disease, old age, and I don't need to worry about death. In the Garden of Eden, I am immortal, youth is immortal, Except for God, nothing can hurt me, because the world does not allow... such a beautiful world, why should I leave, why should I go to a place where I need to worry about food every day, and I need to worry that I may be threatened by death, Do you need to face the world where you are getting older every day, just because of freedom?"

The woman refuted the giant, thinking that she had no reason to abandon the beautiful world and go to an ugly world, even if that world was free.

But the giant was very calm, "Yes, because of freedom."

"Eve, if one day you are tired of this beautiful but not free world and want to leave here, then you can chant my name, and I will take you to a not beautiful but free world where you can make your own decisions. .”

Said softly, the figure of the giant turned into a little light and disappeared in the Garden of Eden created by God.

The woman looked at the disappearing giant stretching out her hand, and watched the light flow through her fingertips. This mother of all beings created by God felt different from the previous confusion for the first time, confusion!
