The Knight of the Second Generation of Demons Re-enacts

Quiet Kiss: I understand.jpg

BB Channel: Oh, the charm of seniors is really disturbing.

Chairman of Meili's Fan Club: Speaking of which, Fujimaru-kun, you are not allowed to hide your physical condition like you did in the video!

Chaos Evil Gudako: Uh, I get it.

Outside the video, everyone was in an uproar because of Ritsuka Fujimaru's sudden voice, and inside the video, the perspective also came to the scene when she was still unconscious.

[After using the power of the Lion King's soul, Fujimaru Ritsuka's consciousness did not actually enter a deep sleep as predicted by Romani and others. Instead, under the guidance of a burning soul fire, he once again came to that spiritual space.

However, this time, Fujimaru Ritsuka did not adapt to this space as quickly as he had in the past few times. Instead, he clearly felt a sense of fatigue that made him want to fall into a deep sleep, and so he was unable to open his eyes for a long time.

——Oh no, if this goes on, I’m going to be ambushed by that annoying guy again!

Thinking of the other party's ruthless sneak attacks on him when he was tired several times before, Fujimaru Ritsuka felt very nervous for a moment. His limbs suddenly flapped a few times, trying to protect his lower abdomen.

But unexpectedly, this time, the expected attack did not appear.

An unknown amount of time had passed, but Fujimaru Ritsuka only felt something gentle flowing into his body, which finally relieved the intense feeling of fatigue a little.

When he opened his eyes, Fujimaru Ritsuka found that the familiar red ghost was staring at him quietly. He was sitting cross-legged in front of him. Only when he was sure that Fujimaru Ritsuka could see him clearly did words appear in the air.

——What did you use outside? Why did your strength deplete so drastically?

"What was used?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka was a little confused at first about the rare attitude shown by the Red Ghost, but he soon remembered what happened before he fell into a coma.

"That's the one I used! The eye-soul that the Lion King transformed into that I mentioned to you before."

Fujimaru Ritsuka had previously asked the Red Ghost why he was unable to turn the Lion King into an Eye Soul, and the latter's advice was to get to know him better.

Now that he has experience, Ritsuka Fujimaru understands a little bit. What he calls understanding is the first step to heart-to-heart communication. If he wants the Heroic Spirit to become an Eye Soul to help him, Ritsuka Fujimaru must establish a spiritual connection with the corresponding Heroic Spirit.

It is not enough to just make one-sided efforts like in the beginning of The Lion King. You must also understand the other person and accept each other in order to complete the connection.

This was the reason why Fujimaru Ritsuka was suddenly able to transform the Lion King's soul again.

However, looking at the strange appearance of the red ghost and his own exhausted situation, Fujimaru Ritsuka felt that there seemed to be other conditions for converting the eye soul.

After thinking for a while, the red ghost raised his head and looked at the other party again.

——Tell me what kind of heroic spirit the Lion King is.

"understood."

Although she thought it was hateful that this guy always bullied her, Fujimaru Ritsuka always had an inexplicable trust in him in the general direction. When the other party asked a question, she expressed her understanding of the Lion King without thinking.

The red ghost nodded in agreement at first, but then his oval red eyes gradually narrowed and he fell silent again.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

——It’s indeed a bit tricky. I suggest you don’t use that eye soul again in the future.

"Ugh?"

The sudden change in attitude stunned Fujimaru Ritsuka. The ghost in front of him had been quite supportive of his transformation of the eye soul before, but now he suddenly changed his tone.

However, this time, the Red Ghost did not maintain his usual mysterious, ruthless and taciturn personality, but directly began to give his own explanation.

It was also the first time that Fujimaru Ritsuka heard about the knowledge about eye souls.

In the words of the Red Ghost, although in theory all Heroic Spirits can be transformed into Heroic Eye Souls by establishing a mind connection, in reality, the price required to transform into an Eye Soul varies between different Heroic Spirits.

In short, the price-performance ratio is not the same, and the difference is huge.

The closer a Heroic Spirit is to historical facts and the more traces can be found in history, the more magic power is needed to transform and use it. At most, the amount of magic used will differ due to the different strengths of individual Heroic Spirits. For example, the soul of Newton and the soul of Billy the Kid. The former will run out of mana after using the ultimate move 1 or 2 times, while the latter can use the ultimate move as a normal attack.

According to this theory, the closer to myths and legends, and the greater the difference from history, the cost will increase exponentially. If he saves energy, Fujimaru Ritsuka can use 15 heroic eye souls to switch forms and fight for a long time. However, if he transforms and uses this eye soul, even if the strength is very weak, the cost of the battle will still be significantly increased.

According to the Red Ghost's own conjecture, the reason for this result should be the source of the Eye Soul - it seems to be related to the existence called "The Great Eye" by the people in the Eye Demon World.

Since the most common means of understanding the world is "observation", it will be more sensitive to things that can be "observed" intuitively, making it easier for the Spirit Rider system to establish connections with those Heroic Spirits who are easy to observe.

Those 15 heroic spirits were selected by Chen Shi through some means, which added some other processes to the general eye souls.

Of course, if it was just a mythical servant in the general sense, the Red Ghost would not stop Fujimaru Ritsuka from using eye souls other than the 15 eye souls. After all, no one would complain about having too much power.

High consumption does not mean uselessness. The eye souls of some heroes are indeed worth the consumption in some places.

This is also why the Red Ghost was willing to teach Fujimaru Ritsuka the trick of transformation in the beginning.

But...

——I didn't expect that the Lion King would be such a being. Not only did he come from another world line, but he was also a possibility that shouldn't exist. This is undoubtedly a fantasy-level heroic spirit. If you use it as an eye soul to fight, the price you need to pay is too much for you to afford now.

The Red Ghost gave his own evaluation.

Fujimaru Ritsuka asked back in a somewhat strange tone.

"If the Great Eye is really as powerful as you said, why does this difference exist? To Him, reality and fantasy are both invisible, right?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't know much about the Great Eye, but from Angelica's few words and the Red Ghost's statement, he still had a vague definition of it - a great existence that is omniscient and omnipotent.

If that's the case, then isn't it contradictory that the difference in consumption due to the different forms of existence of the Heroic Spirits?

"Shouldn't all things be the same in the eyes of Him who knows all things and has all power?"

——Who knows? After all, we are not omniscient and omnipotent, and naturally we do not have His perspective. What seems to us to be contradictory to omniscience and omnipotence may be reasonable in His eyes.

The red ghost spread his hands.

——If you want me to think of a reasonable explanation, um... because the Great Eye doesn't want to waste resources observing the dreams of ants? What do you think of this reason?

"Ant's Dream..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka twitched his lips and wanted to refute immediately, but he couldn't find the right words.

Seeing that the topic had gone off track, the Red Ghost brought it back.

- In short, in order to make up for the insensitive part, the converter and user of the eye soul must pay more. For you now, the price is too extravagant, so you should not use the Lion King Soul in the future.

"..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka fell into silence and rubbed his sleeves with some difficulty.

As a person with normal emotions, she naturally knew that the Red Ghost's idea was correct, but...

Thinking back to the various situations we had faced several times in just the first singularity.

In order to save humanity, should I really give up the power of the Lion King's soul?

Her eyes flickered, and finally she looked up at the red-tongued ghost.

"So, what's the price?"

Silence. The moment Fujimaru Ritsuka asked this question, both the orange-haired girl and the red ghost fell into silence. Only the gurgling sound of the waterfall proved the flow of time.

After a long time, the red ghost seemed to sigh, and Fujimaru Ritsuka felt that his consciousness suddenly began to become dizzy.

This feeling was not unfamiliar to her. Every time the Red Ghost gave her his favorite headbutt, she could vaguely feel this feeling. It was a sign of her imminent awakening.

——The red ghost seemed to have severed the connection with the dream.

The moment she realized this, she hurriedly raised her head to look at the other person, but the vision in front of her had turned into darkness.

That hazy yet familiar voice appeared in my ears for the second time.

"You have already guessed what the price is, haven't you? Since you already have the answer, I guess nothing I say can change it. Forget it, just take a good rest today."

After he finished speaking, Fujimaru Ritsuka's consciousness completely left this space.

In the last moment before waking up, Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't help but sigh.

——BYD! You didn’t even need to hit my stomach to send me out! I’m not done with you!!!】

Mr. Pan: Sure. As expected of you, you are the sister of Chen Shi from another world. Your focus is indeed unique enough.

Demon Cluster: Discharged!

It's just heavenly music: BYD! I felt quite doting and warm when I heard Chen Shi's last words, but the atmosphere was gone in an instant. Mm, I laughed so hard that my stomach hurt.

The dead fish eyes of the great teacher: Humph, it seems that he is both rude and disdainful to his sister, but when his sister really suffers, his attitude immediately changes. This nagging personal guidance and the final instructions. Humph, I see through you, Chen Shi! You are indeed a spiritual Chiba person!

Sister Sun: That’s right! That’s right!

ZIO II: Oh, I didn't expect that I have a hidden sister-con attribute. So this is the love for my sister. Looking up at the sky.jpg

Iron Fist Invincible: Damn, stop being so funny!

Devil Bomber: The civilization index of this barrage of *Sarkaz swear words* has skyrocketed!

Chaos Evil Gudako: This kind of sister complex should be chopped into pieces as soon as possible and thrown into the toilet (sad).

……

Seeing that a parallel world counterpart who was suspected to be the older brother in the forum was actually discussing the manifestations of sister control with several Chiba people, Fujimaru Ritsuka, who experienced himself being ruthlessly headbutted several times from a third-person perspective, felt his blood pressure soar.

I wish I could take a blue pill angrily, then pass through the screen and come to our devil classmate, slap him twice hard, and let this heterogeneous sister-con taste the love and respect of an equal sister.

Unfortunately, Fujimaru Ritsuka doesn’t have the blue pill. Even if he did, he would only be able to change the third person pronoun to the first person pronoun under the tyranny of Chen Shi.

Finally, she calmed down under Matthew's comfort. After calming down, she looked at Romani and Da Vinci who were lost in thought.

"What's wrong, Doctor, dear Da Vinci? Why didn't you talk just now?"

"This."

Romani came back to his senses and spoke his thoughts directly.

"I was just thinking about what kind of existence the 'Great Eye' is. According to the current direction of the story, I speculate that its existence and significance should be the real main line of this story.

At the same time, I am also somewhat curious about the extent to which His so-called omniscience and omnipotence can reach?

How much of the difference between the video and reality has to do with the Great Eye?"

Romani asked one question after another, causing Leonardo da Vinci to nod repeatedly, with curiosity written all over his face.

However, Romani sighed regretfully halfway through his speech.

"However, it is estimated that we will not get the answers to these questions in this singularity. We can only wait and see whether future singularities will reveal these questions to us."

With regretful and curious looks, Romani and others looked at the video again.

[The perspective of the video returned to Tutankhamun's chariot. After returning to reality, Fujimaru Ritsuka naturally understood the meaning of what the red ghost said. No, he vaguely guessed this possibility after using the Lion King Soul.

After some rough perception and speculation, I finally became sure of this.
