Anime, starting from Re:Zero (Zero - Starting Life)

Seeing him in pain is more painful and desperate than suffering ten or a hundred times the pain yourself.

Lokisi held the staff and stretched her body again. She looked at the increasingly manic Gawain, tears falling like beads of beads. She pushed the staff forward with force, and the black staff emitted a colorful light.

Finally unable to bear it any longer, Lokixi cried out hysterically:

"Idiot! Wake up!!!"

Is there any way to defeat the Vitrum?

Perhaps all intelligent beings in the entire galaxy would like to get the exact answer to this proposition.

There are actually many answers.

The Vitrums weren't invincible, at least not individually. Just like the magic of the Six-Sided World was a deadly poison even to the Vitrums, if Gawain hadn't possessed an adaptability far superior to his compatriots, he might have died a slow death in this place.

So, is Gawain immune to damage from magic?

Obviously not.

There might not be any life in the six-sided world that is completely immune to magic damage, only that the concentration is not high enough. However, it would take a very long time to kill a life just by the high magic concentration in the external environment, so long that a species could even evolve and screen out enough adaptability over time.

But what if it were possible to inject super-high concentrations of magic power into a living organism?

While this was undoubtedly possible in an experimental setting, it was absolutely unrealistic in combat. After all, it was common sense that magic could not directly interfere with living things. A living being's own magic would interfere with the effects of external magic, preventing it from forming magic. This was the fundamental logic behind the inability to kill another being by directly generating magic within it.

However, Lokisi Migludia is a genius.

During her journeys back home, she developed and perfected a personal magic of extraordinary complexity and expansiveness.

Its original intention was to achieve the greatest results with the least amount of magic power. It was just an alternative way for those who lacked magic power. But after the original magic was formed, Roxy immediately realized the other possibilities of this magic. She didn't know the true nature of Gawain at the time, but she instantly believed that this might be a good way to curb super-powerful people like the demon god Laplace. It was a special attack magic that was more effective against stronger enemies, but had no value against weaker ones.

It might bring peace.

This is what Lokixi prayed for.

The pitch-black staff pointed at Gawain, who looked up at it.

"Shoot him through! — [Divine Annihilation]!"

The slender needle body was shaped by earth magic, no, by material creation magic, with three layers of folded magic circle directly imprinted on it. The whole body was made of special metal used in Vitrum people's weapons, and the part with magic circle was plated with thin magical metal.

Then, there were twenty temporary miniature magic circles constructed directly with material dust in the air. They would probably be blown away by the breeze and lose their effectiveness in less than 0.1 second, right?

it's fine.

Draining the air along the way and injecting all the magic power into the needle is not enough, more magic power, as much magic power as possible, all the magic power can be injected!

"puff--"

Perhaps it would make such a sound, but because the air had disappeared, the needle only passed through the twenty-fold momentum-imparting magic circle in an instant and hit Gawain's... palm at a speed of more than three hundred times the speed of sound.

Of course he could dodge.

But he didn't hide.

Perhaps, even if Lokisi's attack was really enough to kill him, he wouldn't dodge, right?

Gawain ignored the needle that broke after piercing his skin, nor did he care about the dense foreign magic that was contaminating and corroding his palm. Instead, he immediately drained the air along the way and flew over at top speed, catching the unconscious Roxy who had fallen from the sky in his arms.

He brushed Lokisi's hair with his bloody hands.

"You are the fool."

"It's completely turned ice-colored. If you work harder, there won't be any blue left. Won't you be mistaken for an old lady?"

A single tear rolled down Gawain's eye.

Luo Qixi didn't see the third time.

Chapter 76 The Truth About Gawain

Chapter 76 The Truth

"woke up?"

When Luo Qixi opened her eyes, she saw the face of Gawain, who was dazed and lying on his back. After a moment of confusion, she realized that she was resting her head on Gawain's knees. She smiled.

"Well, wake up."

"Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

"No."

Gao Wen picked up a strand of her hair and said helplessly:

"I really want to say that's fine, but your hair has turned white again, huh? It's the color of a 170-year-old now, from ice blue to ice color. If it happens again, you probably won't be able to grow blue hair anymore, right? Grandma Lokishi."

Luo Qixi had expected this result a long time ago, but seeing that Gawain's mood had improved a lot and the bloodshot in his eyes had faded a lot, she smiled indifferently:

"It's okay, it's just hair color."

Gawain nodded. This was also true. He had previously privately asked the Pope to help him check the internal information of the church. The graying of hair caused by the exhaustion of magic power would not cause any health effects other than changes in hair color. It was not a big deal.

Luo Qixi changed the subject, her tone expectant:

"Did I hurt you just now?"

Gao Wen raised his eyebrows:

"Just now? You've been asleep for sixteen hours."

Luo Qixi glanced at the surrounding environment and decided to camp outdoors.

"Eh??? You're not going to stay with me like this forever, are you?"

Gao Wen naturally:

"Yeah, how else could I leave you alone?"

"What about the search?"

"One yard owned by a yard."

Gawain said this, then raised his hand to show her:

"It's terrible! My palm is completely rotten and two fingers are broken. I've never been injured this badly in battle in my life."

Luo Qixi didn't expect it to be so serious. She grabbed Gao Wen's hands in panic and looked left and right:

"Sorry, I didn't mean to make it that serious..."

"Don't worry, I have an Emperor-level healer here, so it's just a minor injury. I have to say, magic erosion is indeed a good idea. Can you teach it to me later? Is this the trick you said you would teach me later?"

"Hehehe, isn't that awesome?"

“It was designed specifically for me.”

"It was an accident! I didn't mean to do it!"

"I'm telling you, I haven't done anything that would make you think of ways to kill me, right?"

"Absolutely not! No matter what you do, Gawain, I will never want to kill you."

"Then explain what just happened."

"It's called a warning shot."

Gawain stroked Luo Qixi's head helplessly:

"Okay, so, Luo Qixi, you just want me to calm down and stop losing my temper every day? Wouldn't it be better to just tell me earlier? I will listen to you."

Luo Qixi shook her head:

"Not."

She sat up, her back to Gawain:

"It's something worse, something worse than what just happened to you. Something that might actually hurt you. No, it's something that will definitely hurt you."

That's why you can't control yourself and hurt yourself first.

Luo Qixi turned around, took Gawain's hand, looked into his eyes, and said seriously, word by word:

"But I still want to tell you, okay?"

Gawain tilted his head:

"I can forgive you in advance."

Luo Qixi smiled helplessly:

"That's not what I'm worried about. Of course, if I'm wrong, it would be great if you could forgive me without getting angry. In short, can you promise me that you won't hurt yourself no matter what?"

I will feel sad, and everyone will feel sad too.

After all, you are the most fragile fool Gawain.

Gao Wen nodded solemnly.

Luo Qixi also smiled and nodded at him.

Then she spoke:

"Gawain, you've been deceived. It's not the human god, but the [Emperor Vitrum Cultivation System] that's installed in your head."

Gawain frowned deeply, his tone cold:

"Why do you say that?"

Luo Qixi raised her finger:

"First, the Vitrum people are definitely not a race that is inherently without emotions."

Gawain shook his head:

"I'm the only one from Vitrum you've ever met, and I'm a special case."

Luo Qixi denied:

"In your opinion, do the other Vitrum people you've met have emotions? Are they exactly the same as the Vitrum people the AI ​​taught you about?"

Gawain remained calm and did not answer.

Luo Qixi continued:

"I've told you this before, haven't I? We all think you've had noticeable mood swings since you were little, but you just didn't admit it or know it. Elina Lijie even said she could completely read your emotions and thoughts when you were one year old, just like us later on. Even if you had a blank expression, we knew what you were thinking."

Gawain opened his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by Luo Qixi:

"I know you're going to argue with things like, 'This is just a projection, my emotions developed gradually, I probably didn't develop emotional abilities until I was four or five.' But, these are all your subjective feelings, and you're the one who's replacing objective reality with your subjective experience."

"Gawain, think about this carefully. If you were a so-called defective product, gradually losing some of your emotional abilities, and even not understanding liking and loving, how could everyone have the same, coherent view of your expressionless reactions? Your emotional abilities are complete and coherent, almost identical to ours. That's why we can easily understand you and respond to you."

"Although it's unfair to tell you privately, almost all of us could compile a book titled 'Detailed Explanation of Gawain's Micro-Expressions, Micro-Movements, and Subtext.' In fact, this was one of our most frequent topics of conversation when you were away. Just like we've long known that you love Lolz and Debbie, Lolz and Debbie have been boasting about it to us privately for a long time. We also know that your favorite is the early summer tea bag that Debbie mixes with Juneflower, Iris, Luoxiuye, and local black tea. Even the feedback you give when drinking the finest black tea in the Kingdom of Asura is far inferior to that."

Gawain froze slightly.

Luo Qixi touched his cheek, but her expression was a little sad:

"Just like I know you're not feeling embarrassed right now, but rather a little scared, like a child about to return home to a home with an alcoholic and abusive father at night. You want to escape and not want to listen anymore, but you won't do that, so you feel conflicted and painful."

"You like physical contact, right? You feel safe when your cheek is touched, right? What about now? Do you feel warm and satisfied? That's called happiness, that's love, isn't it? No one can know another person's specific feelings. We can only describe and convey them as best we can. It may be accurate or biased, but that doesn't matter, right? What matters is whether what you feel right now is beautiful?"

"Is this something that really needs to be discarded? Is this something that really doesn't exist, or is it something incomplete?"

"Gawain, even someone like me, who was born in a small village with a population of less than a thousand, knows this!"

"There is no need for emotions in a country."

"Only the king."

Gawain's eyes were stained with shadows:

"Anything else you want to say?"

Luo Qixi raised her second finger:

"Of course."

"This is an independent point, and it also supplements and confirms the previous point."
