How come you didn't fall to death?

Nagini chuckled and picked up the jar to examine it. The glass was intact, but the soul inside had been through a series of shocks and was screaming in sorrow and piercing pain. Even through the glass, she could feel the vibrations coming from her palm.

Oh, by the way, that's Nanami Aoyama's soul.

"Is this what you're going to do?"

As mentioned before, Arrietty didn't like these things - Imhotep might be good at this, enjoying the power over life and death. But as a fairy, she hated those who played with souls.

She had complained to Nagini Ansuna a lot in the past two days, and now she couldn't bear it anymore.

"Hey, I forced Imhotep to do this. He already told me."

Indeed, the high priest from a thousand years ago once told Mori Yuesha seriously about the soul - 'This is a taboo, witch lady.' However, due to the mentality of his old father and the instigation of his lover, the high priest did not refuse and could not refuse Mori Yuesha's request.

Except Arrietty.

She has always been outspoken and is now the attendant who is most opposed to Mori Yuesha's actions.

A rare serious look appeared on the fairy's face.

"Nanaami Aoyama was killed by a monster." Mori Yuesha explained unnaturally.

"Any of us can kill that cat! Your Majesty, what are you thinking? Watching Nanami Aoyama being killed and then taking her soul, everyone——"

"Do you really want to put all the people who love you into a jar? Then when you have free time, go to the ice cellar and admire their empty, salted fish-like bodies?"

"Is this what you think?!"

Mori Yuesa snatched the glass jar from Nagini, hugged it tightly like a treasure, lowered her head and said nothing.

"Even if you don't say anything, I can guess what you're planning."

The little elf, who had never been so serious, stood up from Nagini's shoulder. She looked at Mori Yuesha's back with disappointment in her words.

"I hate this kind of Queen!!"

Yelling at Mori Yuesha angrily, Arrietty jumped off his shoulder, climbed over the wall, and disappeared from the sight of several people.

Mori Yuesha stood there in silence.

Nagini walked over and touched her hair, saying softly, "Don't worry, she can protect herself..."

The girl tightened her fingers on the glass jar, raised her eyes gloomily, and looked at Nagini. This was the first time she had an argument with Arrietty. Mori Yuesha had never seen other planeswalkers, and she didn't know what the relationship between a wizard and a servant should be.

"I love Arrietty very much."

The pitiful girl was in low spirits, and even her dark pupils were somewhat gloomy. Perhaps it was Nagini's own feelings that affected her view. In her perception, Mori Yuesha was like a pure girl lying on the edge of a clear lake, holding a clay pot pitifully, and her melancholy came from the fish she released.

Clumsy and naive, but also charming.

It is worth it for all things to sigh for her.

"Master..." Nagini smiled, gently hugged the girl in her arms, and let her hear her heartbeat.

"I," Mori Yuesha rubbed against his chest, her voice muffled: "Did I... do something wrong?"

"Hmm… maybe?"

Mori Yuesha raised her head. From this angle, the girl looked pure and transparent, perhaps even a little broken like glass.

"I intend to..."

The girl muttered a few words and stammered. She really didn't understand.

"That's what I planned...Arrietty, why are you angry? Why why..."

why are you mad?

Nagini shook her head and touched the girl's slender waist again and again, feeling her uneasiness and doubt. Perhaps without herself, Arrietty, Imhotep and Ansuna, she would have other servants.

What answer would the servants tell her?

Nagini also had many questions, for example, the gods 'mischievously' created a horrible creature - but ignored it during the most important period of her growth.

In the eyes of gods, apart from strength, nothing else is important?

Or is it that the meeting between 'me' and 'her' was already a destiny planned by the gods...?

There was so much that Nagini didn't understand.

"Is this your plan?"

"I remember what Nagini said last time..." The girl whispered tentatively: "You said it's not good to put souls in jars... We should enjoy being loved, give them bodies - I think about it, I can correct it. If it's an immortal species, it can accompany me for a long time..."

As planeswalkers become more powerful, they travel to more and more worlds. One day, they will encounter immortals - if the soul can be extracted, it can be put back.

Mori Yuesha looked at Nagini's eyes timidly, with a look of uneasiness on her face. She was afraid that this maid who had had close contact with her was also dissatisfied with her behavior in the past few days, just like Arrietty.

——Although she had listened to Nagini and changed her idea of ​​'let them stay in the small jar to accompany me' to 'put the body of the immortal seed in it to accompany me'.

But you might still make a mistake.

Otherwise, why was Arrietty suddenly angry today?

But Nagini just kissed her forehead gently.

"My master, I will not be dissatisfied with anything you do. Your will is my will." Nagini held Mori Yuesha's face and stroked the teardrop mole at the corner of the girl's eye with her thumb.

Mori Yuesa squinted her eyes comfortably.

"So, you want to 'collect' souls as soon as possible."

Mori Yuesa closed her eyes and rubbed Nagini's palm with her face.

"Hmm... I don't know when their souls will be eaten by the Chaos Monsters, so why not take advantage of this disaster and let me protect them first - in the future, I will find a few beautiful corpses of immortals and put the souls of Grandma Alia, Eriri, and Yuno into them..."

"They will be able to accompany me for a long, long time." Mori Yuesha said obediently: "I listen to Nagini very much. I will no longer let them stay in the jar, but prepare to find a great corpse to put them in..."

Nagini didn't know what to say.

What is wrong in the logic of normal people is very correct from the perspective of Mori Yuesha: "Love me? Then, wouldn't it be nice to be with me forever?"

An immature, willful and naughty young god wants a few humans to accompany him forever - just like the child next door who raises a litter of baby lizards and is also worried that his companions will suddenly die one year.

The child's father thinks that if a pet dies, you can just keep another one, but Mori Yuesha disagrees.

but…

"But, respect. I know..." Mori Yuesha opened her eyes full of confusion and doubt: "Isn't this respectful of me? I'm obviously planning to find a better body for them..."

"Master really hasn't grown up yet."

"?"

Nagini chuckled: "Change body... Well, let's not talk about these souls now-" The woman knocked on the glass jar: "Can these souls regain their sanity and memory after entering the new body? Let's talk about protection and changing bodies..."

"Have you asked them?"

Mori Yuesha frowned: "Do I need to ask? Why do I need to ask about making their lifespans longer and their bodies better?"

"Because this is the premise of 'respect'." Nagini gently pinched Mori Yuesha's cheek, "Maybe they don't want to, then Mori Yuesha did something annoying."

Who wouldn't want to?

Mori Yuesha looked unconvinced.

"Humans are a species that are proud of being born as humans." Nagini held up Mori Yuesha's hand and placed it against her heart. "I was once a human, and I know that we are proud of our own race."

Mori Yuesha was stunned: "But you are not now, Nagini."

The woman looked at her tenderly.

"Yes, now I will be proud to be "Mori Yuesha's servant and lover". That is prouder than all pride, more glorious than all glory."

But there is more to this than that.

Nagini added, "Some people believe that the short but sparkling life of human beings is the source of their strength. It is precisely because of the brevity of life that they love and hate with all their strength. It is precisely because time is so short that they try their best to create an incredible and great civilization in their limited lives... And it is precisely because of the brevity of life that they are more eager to leave behind an eternal and immortal spirit that transcends the flesh."

"Courage, love, sacrifice, perseverance, wisdom, faith - the hymn of the short-lived species, have you ever heard of it?"

Mori Yuesha remained silent.

Nagini put her arms around her thin neck, pulled down the rubber band on her wrist and tied a big high ponytail for the girl.

"So, Master. Souls shine because of free will. This is not about long life or short life, but every creature living in the multiverse should be like this. They have the right to decide whether to live or die, and the right to decide how to live and how to die."

Mori Yuesha gritted her teeth and silently repeated Nagini's words, "The soul shines because of free will."

Chapter 110 Heart-to-heart talk

Mori Yuesha gritted her teeth and repeated to herself Nagini's words, 'The soul shines because of free will.'

"If you hate the gods for 'touching your things', then you should understand that Alia probably also hates you for touching her and her children's souls."

"Your future is too far away, Master. There will be more and more creatures loving you. Let go of your hands, enjoy their love, enjoy their brilliant lives and dull deaths, and enjoy more and more creatures surrounding you - do you still remember the first pair of little boots?"

Mori Yuesha nodded: "I saved the money for a long time."

"Is it important?"

"important."

"now what?"

just now…

Oh...Moritukisa seems to understand.

However, even if they were free to choose, they would choose the body of the immortal species, right?

"Not necessarily." Nagini shook her head: "Some people think that a hundred years of life is enough. Over a long period of time, watching the loved ones and friends around them leave one after another, the world becomes more and more unfamiliar - the environment is not adapted to, and the traces of one's own existence disappear little by little. Living alone in the world like a wanderer..."

"They believe that immortality is a curse."

"Isn't that the same thing that the wife of the chairman of the hot spring chain said at the party?" Mori Yuesha talked about the gossip she saw not long ago: "'Although my husband and I have some wealth, we have the same time and life as you all, and I am not much happier than you.' Humph, the ring on her index finger can buy that yacht."

"But that's all she can say, isn't it?" Nagini asked back. "If someone were to sing the praises of the superiority of short life over long life in front of you, Yuesha wouldn't refute it, right?"

"…Yes, yes." Mori Yuesha thought for a moment and gave a standard smile: "I would say, 'You're right, I'm not as happy as you are as an immortal.' Maybe something like this..."

"so…"

Mori Yuesha crossed her arms and nodded confidently: "So a long time can do a lot of things."

"for example?"

"Like eating and drinking - too much!" Mori Yuesha took a step back and tilted her head. "So many worlds, so many interesting people."

"I like clothes, so is it possible to become a world-renowned designer..."

"I like music. Wow... there are so many fun instruments waiting for me to play, and I can also compose music and sing for everyone..."

“Become a chef and make delicious desserts like Nagini; become a bartender and record interesting stories every night; a world-famous painter, a famous writer, a skilled swordsman - there are even programmers who type characters like writing spells!”

"Countless stories, countless books, countless lives - if you don't have talent, it may take decades or even hundreds of years to achieve perfection in each of them. Why, why do some people think that time is too long?"

“There are so many things to do!”

The girl spread her arms, her ponytail was fluffy and shiny, and she was as happy as a deer that found a clear stream in the jungle. She jumped and spun around happily, her big eyes filled with excitement and longing.

A beautiful world, lovely servants, close friends and an interesting future.

Plus Mori Yuesha.

This is also the life that Nagini longs for.

The woman looked at the giggling girl, watching her jumping around on the asphalt, dancing like a little lunatic, kicking the trash can to accompany the music, waving at the empty station, and then, on the billboard, within the scope of the idol's promotional photo, she gracefully bowed.

She can always see the world that Nagini and the others cannot see, can always feel more interesting emotions, can always hear applause and shouts that may not exist, and touch the passionate hearts and souls - and that is why she is the eternal silver moon in Nagini's heart.

The one who saved her, and...

A lover with a hint of mint.

The little lunatic came running over with a few beads of sweat on the tip of her nose. She looked at Nagini and shouted happily: "Look! There are many things to do. This is the power of the immortal species!"

The woman bent her fingers and gave her a slap on the head.

"That sounds nice, but you just stay at home every day eating and drinking, teasing Arrietty, and then running off to explore places you shouldn't go..."

Nagini was helpless.
