The immortal black snake just wants to live simply

Why would the emperor of Ursus be afraid of the evil god and want to suppress it?

Because it is definitely not the right choice to place the life and death of the country on an individual who cannot think beyond imagination.

……

"Dear Duke of Cosiche...can you return your body to me?"

"I'm sorry, Miss Alina...it's not okay yet~"

In the evening, in a tent of the integration movement, the gray-haired Elafia girl was talking to herself.

"You want to help Tallulah, right? And don't you know what the current situation of the integration movement is?"

"..."

"I saw the dead assistants of the Dukes of Victoria, the secret agents of Letania, and the spies of Casimir... The integration movement is developing very well. But now that you have entered the sight of the big powers, the time is not mature enough."

"...Dear Duke of Cosiche, I don't understand what you mean. The integration movement should not become an outcast of a big country. The infected have the right to pursue their own happiness."

"You are so right, Miss Alina!"

"……Ugh?"

Chapter 231 Tallulah, you haven’t had a heart-to-heart relationship with Alina, right?

What kind of person is Cosich?

Alina actually doesn't know her friend's adoptive father, who is also a living legend of Ursus - the immortal black snake.

She just listened to ancient legends and interesting stories like most people living in Ursus.

Although most people in Ursus will not know...many legends were actually written by Black Snake himself when he was bored.

Alina also loves reading.

She learned a lot of useful knowledge from the book and knew how to use knowledge to create a better environment for everyone involved in the integrated movement.

If Tallulah and the Patriots shouldered the malice of the outside world for those infected by the integration movement, then Alina was responsible for being a warm bonfire.

A bonfire symbolizing the future.

Even if she doesn't think so at all.

She just tried to use her knowledge to educate those illiterate infected people... In fact, the main body of infected people are generally poor people who have not received education.

Who is most at risk for oriosis?

Not those miserable people.

Alina used needlework to add warm clothes to them, and used words to soothe their restless hearts...the confusion about the future of the integration movement.

In fact, among those infected who are not warriors, Alina's reputation is even better than Tallulah's.

Not all infected people are warriors.

Fighters like guerrillas are only a minority in today's integrated movement... The vast majority of infected people who follow Tallulah are just trying to survive.

They don't care how noble the idea of ​​the integration movement is, and what will happen if it is realized... They only know that the bread and warm campfire in their hands can keep them alive for a while.

They just want to live.

……

All in all, Alina doesn't actually know Black Snake very well.

She only knew that Duke Cosiche had provided supplies during the difficult period of the integration movement. He was a nobleman that patriots respected but feared. At the same time... he also saved her life.

Um...maybe he's still a father who isn't good at communicating?

But Alina also knows that the [God] who has existed since the founding of Ursus will never be an easy existence to deal with.

When Alina first became infected, she actually wanted to live in the Duchy of Cosiche.

Rather, living in the Duchy of Cosich is the dream of almost all infected people in Ursus.

But is it possible?

Can the Duchy of Cosiche handle the expectations of so many infected people?

In fact, all the infected people who are able to enter the Duchy of Cosiche to make a living have special skills.

So what about Alina at that time?

She is just a village girl who likes to read... and the prosecutors responsible for screening obviously do not have that much energy to carefully evaluate every infected person who wants to join the Duchy of Cosiche.

How can you join easily without an excellent resume?

The Duchy of Cosiche does not raise idlers. Excellent treatment requires the joint efforts of outstanding citizens!

The Duke of Cosiche does not deny the power of ordinary people, but...

Infected people have never been the mainstream in this land.

And a person with inherent flaws has to work harder than a normal person and show more value than a normal person in order to gain the same status as a normal person.

Therefore, Alina was screened out.

In fact, when she was first screened out, Alina actually had resentment towards the Duke of Cosiche.

It's like that feeling of 'collapsing a house'... I can't help it, Duke Cosiche has promoted his territory too well.But it was suddenly discovered that the omnipotent good god in the story did not exist at all, so the huge sense of gap was unspeakable.

Although she knew very well that even the emperor of Ursus would not be able to give good treatment to so many infected people.

Resources are limited.

And human desires are unlimited.

The Duchy of Cosiche will only open the door to those valuable infected people, while more poor infected people who do nothing can only be turned away.

But would they have suffered from mineral sickness if their lives had not been difficult to begin with?

If they are not incompetent, have no qualifications, and have no knowledge, do they need to work in a black-hearted factory that does not even provide protective clothing?

'The Duke of Cosiche doesn't care about us ordinary infected people...'

This was Alina's first impression of the Duke of Cosiche.

……

Later, Alina met her friend and learned her friend's secret...

The other party is the adopted daughter of the Duke of Cosiche.

Alina actually thought the other party was joking at first... Anyway, the Eternal Duke of Ursus is a god-like existence to the people of Ursus.

And how could the gods have heirs?

It was hard for Alina to imagine that a being who often made cameos in children's picture books, horror legends, and even literary works would have his own heir.

After all, in each version of the legend, the black snake appears in a different appearance.

The beautiful female noble, the righteous male judge, the strange children (the author of this horrific Ursus folklore story was arrested by the Ursus police for defamation many years ago), the kind old grandfather... or simply not human.

It’s not like the immortal black snake has never appeared in the eyes of the world as a beast.

But to say that this kind of existence has children... is a bit of a challenge to Alina's imagination.

But soon, as the integration movement faced a crisis, boxes of supplies were brought by unknown people wearing strange clothes; when they first met Tallulah, the luxurious clothes she was wearing... and the shield of the infected in the tundra— —The patriot’s surprise and confusion when he first saw Tallulah.

This made Alina realize that her friend might not be that simple.

Later, Alina learned from Tallulah's occasional complaints that she was aloof and superior in legend, different from the weird and terrifying in folklore, and different from the perfect black snake in hymns.

He likes to scare children, is addicted to sweets, is well-rounded but actually speaks ill of others in private, and occasionally goes crazy on a whim... and the other person actually secretly and anonymously publishes some artistic works about himself.

"Uh……"

Alina is hard to rate.

But I always feel that there is a gap between the legendary gods and ordinary people like them...

It's not as big as I thought.

……

Later, Alina was rescued by Cosiche when she accidentally encountered bandits when she went out to exchange supplies.

"...What a coincidence, right?"

Alina and Tallulah are different.

She is not stupid and sweet.

In this land, those who are too naive and have no strength cannot survive.

But again, she didn't know if it was really just a coincidence.

So she took the Duke of Cosiche to the camp smoothly because she knew for sure that the Duke of Cosiche really had no ill intentions towards the integration movement.

And not because the Duke of Cosiche saved her life.

"..."

But the Duke of Cosiche seems...

It's not like most people in Ursus discriminate against infected people.

Yes.

How could an immortal god be afraid of ore sickness?

Chapter 232 Nano Black Snake! Boy!

"Look~ Miss Alina, you still have many skills that you haven't mastered, and you still have a lot of knowledge that you haven't learned... What you have now is far from enough."

"..."

"You must learn to use your own knowledge to identify those rats with evil intentions, and use correct knowledge to educate those ignorant people... Alina, if you really want to stand by Tallulah's side, then you still have to Far from enough."

"I am just an ordinary infected person, respected Duke... The knowledge I have is only learned from those popular books. I have no powerful spells; I have not experienced higher education; the only thing I am good at may be needlework... …But it’s not an irreplaceable technology.”

"No, no, no, Miss Alina, you don't have to look down on yourself like this. You are more important to today's integration movement than you think...' It's precisely because we sometimes don't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes. , so those poems, music, fruits, flowers, the desire for taste, sight, smell, and touch are valuable.’ This sentence is very interesting.”

“…Does the integrated movement have your eyes everywhere?”

"Haha, don't be afraid. Since my daughter had a falling out with me last time, she has expelled many snake scales... A patriot is a very good warrior, but he is only an excellent warrior; Luper, codenamed the Kingslayer, is thinking about revenge; the cold Carters just wants to protect the people around him; as for Mephistopheles, Boneshatter, and Faust...the three are precocious, but still They are just children who have not lost their childishness.”

"..."

"As for you... although you have an infectious mouthpiece, you lack a pair of eyes that are proficient in distinguishing good from evil; you have a pair of working hands that are good at weaving, but you do not have powerful spells and outstanding military talents; you clearly have They are not cadres of the Integration Movement, but they have extraordinary prestige among the infected who are not fighters.”

"My life and death are now completely in your hands. I can't even understand how you control my body... What do you want to do?"

"What I'm trying to do is simple...the integrated movement shouldn't be a passing fad."

"You want to teach me? But why don't you do it yourself? If you are willing..."

"Miss Alina, after all, I am still the Duke of Ursus... I carry a lot of things that you can't imagine. Even if I occasionally get bored of it, doing whatever you want is the best for a being of my level. Very difficult."

"...Are you doing this for Ursus, or because you are really as kind to the infected as advertised by the outside world, or is it because of Tallulah?"

"Haha... You are very perceptive, little Elafia. But that's about it."

"..."

"If you don't want to be [me], it's better not to delve too deeply into some things."

After all, the more you get to know Black Snake, the more you will find...

You become less and less like [yourself].

The fact that Alina still has herself is the result of the evil god's carefulness.

If you want to step on an ant without killing it, it is difficult to control the strength.

And Alina... is really just an ordinary infected person.

But it is precisely because she is just an ordinary infected person...

That makes everything more valuable in the eyes of the black snake.

……

At the same time, in Tallulah's tent, a white-haired Fidia sat silently beside Tallulah's bed.
