741. The Kind Evil
Listening to Higashino Yu's questioning, her heart seemed to fall from the sky rapidly.
"Aiko!"
Lancelot on the side helped Guinevere, who was staggering a little.
She wanted to say something comforting, but she didn't know where to start.
As the god of war, she had noticed a long time ago that the King of the End didn't seem to be enthusiastic about her mission.
After all, now the number of devil kings has reached an unprecedented seven. This is a number that has never been seen in history.
And the number seven itself is a magic number.
There are obvious differences between Chinese and Western cultures, but the number 7 is a number with mysterious color and profound meaning in both Chinese and Western cultures.
The God Yahweh, whom Christianity believes in, created the universe in seven days. Since then, Christianity has been full of worship and respect for the number "seven" in "five and sixty".
In Greek mythology, the most famous allusion is "Seven heroes attacking Thebes". At that time, the Kingdom of Thebes was ruled by Polynices and Eteocles brothers in turn.
The two agreed that each person's ruling period would be rotated once a year.
But the younger brother wanted to monopolize the throne, and not only refused to give up the throne after the time limit, but also expelled the elder brother from abroad.
After his brother was forced to wander, he met the Kingdom of Argos by chance. The king not only recruited him as his son-in-law, but also summoned seven heroes a year later to go out with him to help him regain the throne.
In the Christian Bible, God used seven days to create the universe, and before the devastating flood came, he advised Noah to bring all kinds of birds and birds of seven males and seven females with him when he entered the ark. birds;
Eve was the seventh rib of Adam;
Satan's original body is a seven-headed fire dragon;
Rest in the seventh year after the land has been cultivated;
Jesus exhorted people to forgive others seven times seventy times;
The Virgin Mary has seven happy things and seven sad things.
All these are all implying how different the number seven is, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it has led to a new round of changes in the era.
But at this time, the King of the End still hasn't appeared.
However, Guinevere insisted on helping the other party, so she kept silent about this matter.
Now the paper can't hold the fire anymore. After waking up from the dream, human beings always have to face the reality.
Higashino Yu didn't stop talking because of Guinevere's sad expression.
"Guinevere, you betrayed the Earth Mother out of pity and wanted to help the King of the End, but have you ever thought that the King of the End really needs your help?"
"Continuously fighting and constantly clearing out the godslayers, is that what the King of the End really needs?"
Guinevere's delicate body kept fighting.
In fact, it was not Higashino Yu's words that really hurt her, but her own inner fear.
If everything I have done for a thousand years has been wrong, then what is the use of my mistakes?
Like Gan Yu, because of Zhongli's contract, she struggled against Liyue for many years, until Zhongli cut off the contract and made her retire. But what about Guinevere?
Because the momentary pity lasted for a thousand years, but now someone told her that you are just moving yourself for a thousand years, and it is actually useless.
Guinevere felt like a joke.
If so, why are you working so hard?
At this moment, Niweier's wild language is still going on.
"Even if you don't say anything now, it's useless. You should know that the Divine Sword of Salvation is the correction power of the world. Even the power of the gods can't destroy it, so he doesn't have to worry about being attacked while he is sleeping.
"So it doesn't make sense for the King of the End to hide his whereabouts. Under normal circumstances, he doesn't need to hide at all, but at this time he is hiding. Let me ask, "What is he hiding?"
Higashino looked at her with a sneer.
At the same time Guinevere's heart trembled, she had guessed the answer Higashino Yu wanted to say.
"Eliminate all the impossibilities, then no matter how unbelievable the remaining option is, it is the final answer, and that is you, Guinevere, who revived him faithfully and wholeheartedly!"
Higashino Yu's words completely drove Guinevere into the abyss.
The person he has been chasing for more than a thousand years has actually been avoiding him from the very beginning, and after thinking about it, after thinking about it a little more carefully, he discovered an even more terrifying thing
"Hey~ Seeing your appearance, have you already found it?"
Higashino Yu continued to speak slowly.
"In fact, what he evades is not you, but his own responsibility as the King of the End."
"Long time will wear away everything, even a thousand-year-old rock can't stand it, and he has already been exhausted by his responsibilities."
"So this time he would rather sleep than perform his duties. Rather, for the current King of the End, every awakening has become a pain, and this pain has been increasing infinitely."
"For a warrior of steel, he will choose to escape only when he can no longer bear this kind of pain."
"However, what were you doing during the time when the King of the End put down his sword and chose to escape? You are constantly trying to revive him. Maybe you think you are out of mercy, but in his eyes you may be The most painful executioner for him."
Although it was expected before, Guinevere still received a huge shock when he heard Higashino Yuu say so.
She didn't have any romantic thoughts about the King of the End, and the reason why she betrayed the Mother Goddess' camp was out of mercy for the King of the End.
4.2 Guinevere has always thought so, but now someone tells her that everything you do is wrong.
Every time she urges her, she is very pleasantly surprised, because she thinks that she has helped the other party, but it is a painful beginning for the other party. She is obviously unwilling to fight, but she is here because of her duty and the hope of her family members. sword.
It was during this swing of the sword again and again that the King of the End was overwhelmed by pain.
"How did this happen, what have I done all these years..."
Guinevere clutched her chest, her face full of pain, she felt as if her heart was empty.
Obviously, I was putting the knife on his neck step by step, but I was still complacent thinking that I had helped the other party.
