My mother's love song

The orange-haired girl tilted her head and said, "Maybe I forgot something important without realizing it... When I think about it, I feel a little depressed."

“Really… Ritsuka, there’s no need for you to feel depressed.

It's normal to remember nothing after waking up from a dream, but this doesn't mean you've lost anything.

On the contrary, you actually benefit a lot.”

“Oh… is that so?”

Ritsuka and Mashu looked at each other.

The Grand Master of the Holy Sword nodded and said, "Yes, although your brain can no longer remember last night's dream, your heart and your body must still remember it clearly."

"Miss Altria, are you trying to say that although I have no memory of the dream, it is already engraved on my soul?"

After Li Xiang asked this, she smiled bitterly and shook her head: "What I want to discuss is not something in the field of mysticism.

Listen up, Ritsuka.

The brain of a living being is very limited and cannot hold everything, so it will forget some things regardless of its own will. If it does not do so, the human spirit will not be able to bear it.

But, everything you have experienced along the way, whether unforgettable or forgotten, has more or less influenced your personality.

The accumulation of all these little things has made you who is sitting in front of me now.

So you haven’t lost anything and don’t feel discouraged.”

Goddess Avalon cut off a small piece of steak with a knife and fork and said, "Just like this ingredient, its taste can only remain in your mind for a dozen seconds at most and will soon be forgotten by your body, but the nutrition it brings has been absorbed by you."

“Ohhh…I see!”

Ritsuka and Mashu echoed, thinking to themselves:

Ms. Altria, you actually ate steak so early in the morning... Treating breakfast as a full meal! Is this the generosity of the Grand Heroic Spirit of the strongest class swordsman?

Goddess Avalon chewed her steak with great relish and continued.

"It's the same for me. Although I don't have any memories of my previous life in this world, those forgotten experiences and important memories have not left me.

Because they existed, they constitute my current personality.

So instead of feeling sad or upset, I feel empowered.”

The goddess Avalon hugged Duoxi in a dignified manner while lecturing the girl.

Her heroic eating style and philosophical words made Ritsuka and Mashu look at her in admiration.

“Ritsuka, Mashu, I hope the same can happen to you.

Even if I encounter similar situations in the future, whether I lose my memory or my life is denied, I will still be able to stick to my code of conduct."

"Yes, yes! Miss Altria!"

Although she is not the real King Arthur, she is still a heroic spirit worthy of respect and trust.

The girls had this conviction in their hearts.

……

……

……

After breakfast, they headed to the meeting room, meeting another member of Chaldea, Holmes, on the way.

"Mr. Holmes! Are you able to get up and move around?"

Mashu and Ritsuka showed surprised expressions.

Before entering the Hades base under the city, the three Chaldeans explored the ground of the interstellar city yesterday and encountered the main force of the enemy.

The Olympian gods under Zeus, including the two main gods Aphrodite and Demeter, surrounded them.

At the critical moment, Holmes was planning to use a special move that "was not very stable, so he didn't plan to use it often", but he angered Zeus in the distance, and was knocked to the ground by a thunderbolt and fell into a state of near death.

Just when Ritsuka is really about to finish this time, Altria Avalon rescues the group with a mechanical owl named "Minerva".

Minerva could directly interfere with the magical composition of the gods, thereby creating a gap for escape, and everyone finally fled into the underground base here.

"I'm fully recovered now, so I can have a mock battle with you guys after the meal."

Holmes said: "All this is the effect of the therapeutic nanomachines."

In the Atlantic Lostbelt, there exists a nanomachine called Theos Kleonomea [Heritage of God].

That is a blessing from the gods. The physical fitness of the people in this world has been greatly enhanced through nanomachines.

There are twelve types of Theos Kleonomea, representing the powers of the twelve main gods.

The healing nanomachine that Holmes was talking about was Demeter Kleinomea, which completely healed a dying person overnight.

Such a powerful blessing from the Earth Goddess is just one of the many benefits enjoyed by ordinary people in the interstellar city.

"It's just like the legendary utopia..."

When Holmes expressed this emotion, the goddess Avalon frowned slightly in displeasure.

“Even so, it is still a place of survival competition for you.

Pan-human history and the Lostbelts are in a life-and-death struggle, and only one side can survive.

Then, Fujimaru Ritsuka, you are the representative of pan-human history."

Ritsuka and Mashu nodded in response with firm expressions.

"By the way, who prepared the meals last night and this morning?"

Mashu suddenly thought of this question.

After she asked this, a pair of siblings with similar appearances appeared in the God Breaker Alliance base.

The brother's name was Macharios and the sister's name was Adele.

They were once followers of Athena, and now they are the last survivors of the God-Breaking Alliance.

It was they who treated Ritsuka and his companions with delicious food and provided treatment to Holmes.

After successfully meeting up with local people, everyone decided to start exchanging information as soon as possible.

During the conversation, the artificial intelligence created by Tesla and Edison, former members of the God-Breaking Alliance, was activated without permission.

Although all the heroes of the God-Breaking Alliance had been exterminated by the Olympian gods before Chaldea arrived, they were still preserved in the form of artificial intelligence.

Just like the palm of Prometheus, the god of knowledge, [kinds fire], it continues to provide help to humans who rebel against the gods.

"The gods of Olympus are not only the rulers of the Lostbelt, but they are also gods that have existed since the Age of Gods.

I'm sure you've all already vaguely realized that they are actually beings that flew in from the other side of the universe."

Tesla of artificial intelligence explains.

"The ancient gods who traveled across the sea of ​​stars and descended here. Gigantic beings.

The descendants of Chaos the First, the Twelve Mecha Gods of Olympus.

Although they were mentally prepared, everyone was still shocked when this information was confirmed.

"The next part is about the differences between them and pan-human history. At what point did they start to become different?

First, there is the birth of gods. The gods were born from the original Chaos, and after generations...

The first great war came, the Titan War, and up to this point everything was the same as pan-human history, with the victorious Zeus becoming the king of gods, the almighty god.

“Then came the Second Great War, 14,000 years ago, also known as the White War.

The Olympian gods fought a certain being from the world's enemies. It is not clear what happened, but one thing is certain.

This is when the Lostbelt was born."

"The evidence is the third great war, which took place about 3,500 years ago, against the giant Gigantes.

In pan-human history, the gods defeated the giants with the help of human heroes such as Hercules, but in this world, the gods killed the giants in an instant. "

Because the Olympian gods in the Lostbelt still possessed the [Body of the Mecha God] that had long been destroyed in human history, they easily killed the giants in seconds.

Not only that, they are mechanical gods that flew from outer space. If they remain organic, they will not even be affected by the weakening of human faith and the decline of the Age of Gods, and will continue to exist powerfully forever.

So at the end of the Age of Gods, the fourth war that had never existed in human history broke out in Olympus, and the gods disagreed on whether to allow humans to develop independently.

The twelve main gods and the minor gods who followed them split into the [Human Domination Faction] and the [Human Coexistence Faction]. A civil war broke out, and the defeated Coexistence Faction was destroyed or punished. Their remains fell into the sea and became the Atlantis Islands.

The interstellar city of Olympus was also established after this war.

"From the day we accepted the nanomachines bestowed by Demeter, we gained pseudo-immortality."

Adele said, "Even if we are injured, even if we are killed, we will be resurrected soon. Only God can grant us death."

Furthermore, they do not even age, and their appearance remains forever the same as the day they were blessed.

Holmes said, "Hey, hey, immortality. I wonder what the Emperor Qin Shi Huang would look like if he heard this."

Adele said, "The existence of children like us makes adults happy. Children are very fragile, which satisfies the adults' desire to protect them. So from that day on, we were unable to become adults. It has been like this forever. Obviously, we are already past the age to become adults."

Holmes: "Wow, to limit the emotions of the individual for the sake of the happiness of the whole. It is really quite interesting.

No wonder you rebel against God. But I must make it clear to you first.

If we uproot the Fantasy Tree, it will mean the destruction of everyone in the entire city of Olympus Lostbelt. Is that okay?"

Makarios said: "This is the conclusion we have come to after 100 years of thinking.

We no longer want today to last forever. Even if it means being destroyed... we still want a different tomorrow."

Adele said: "Do you know how old we are?"

"...Based on what people on the street say, how many hundreds of years old?"

Adele shook her head. "We were supposed to set out to serve the gods of coexistence during the Fourth Civil War of Gods, but we missed the last boat, which was clearly the last chance to leave the city."

"Please wait a moment! The Fourth War of Gods must have happened thousands of years ago!"

Adele said, "We have lived in this city for about 10,000 years."

Macharios said: "To be more precise, about ten thousand and several hundred years."

Even the descendants of the exiled Coexistence Faction, the Atlanteans, could live to be over 800 years old, while the followers of the Domination Faction and the residents of Olympus could live to be over years old.

Almost all citizens of the interstellar city possess combat power comparable to that of heroic spirits. Only the gods have the power to take people's lives. Under the protection of the gods, poverty, disease, hunger, fighting, death and other things have long been far away from people.

"We, the people of Olympus, are the toys of the gods, played with in the cradle of eternity.

Is a stagnation that has never moved forward.

I can't leave this city, and I can't grow up. I'm experiencing the same today as yesterday millions of times over and over again!"

Although everything here is as beautiful as the legendary utopia, the people in this world are regarded as the property of God. After tens of millions of years, both God and man have become rigid.

There is no concept that can be called labor. People are immersed in academia and art, constantly enriching their culture.

Praise the gods and greet people with a smile.

Today is no different from yesterday, and tomorrow is no different from today. As a result, this world is judged to have no possibility of development and is being pruned.

"This place has been stagnant for ten thousand years."

……

……

……

"Hoping that the whole world will be destroyed because you are unhappy with yourself is called an antisocial personality in our world."

In the forest area on the border of the interstellar city, Rhodes rested his head on the legs of the cloaked goddess and looked at the interstellar city in the distance.

“I really can’t understand the thoughts of those people.”

Behind the boy, Asagami Fujino spoke respectfully.

"I think it is a great blessing to be able to serve God. It is my great honor to be able to give everything to God."

The girl put three fingers together, put her forehead to the ground, and knelt on the ground in a solemn posture of kneeling on the ground.

The gorgeous purple-black long hair covered the ground, and the body wrapped in a kimono showed off the mature and attractive female curves.

The graceful and elegant lady from an aristocratic girls' school kneeling down in worship would make any man's blood boil, but Rhode just glanced at her lazily.

"Fujino is a little too extreme. You can't become like your mother, okay?"
