Minos felt that his worldview had been destroyed.
After tidying up his messy robe, Minos looked at Eight-cloud Ink in an unfriendly manner.
"What you said just now, are you kidding me?"
Now, he knew that Eight-cloud Ink came from another world.
To Synapse, a different world was not a concept that he could not understand. Even the Big Bang was because they used technology to reshape the entire world.
However, Minos felt that it was a joke to say that they could sleep, dream, and have hope just like the ordinary humans on the ground.
Synapse's technology was so advanced, but he could not do that.
"I am not lying to you. You can take a look at this."
He waved his hand and opened a gap. Two All-Purpose Angels fell out.
They were the Harpy sisters.
"Gamma!!"
When Minos saw the Hubby sisters, he exclaimed in surprise and quickly went forward.
"Bastard! What did you do to them?! "
Minos, who did not get any response from the Harpy sisters, turned around and looked at Eight-cloud Ink angrily.
"Eh? So you are worried about the All-Purpose Angels? Seeing how you treated Nimue, I thought you did not care about them at all. "
"Damn it …"
Minos clenched his fists tightly and his body trembled slightly.
"Don't worry, they just fell asleep."
Fell asleep?
"Look, I can even make the All-Purpose Angels, who do not have the ability to sleep, fall asleep. It is not a problem for me to make you have a dream."
As he said this, Eight-cloud Ink clapped his hands gently.
The Harpy sisters, who were lying on the ground, suddenly let out an undetectable groan.
Then, the two of them slowly opened their eyes.
"We are … Gamma?! master！？”
When the Harpy sisters saw Minos clearly, they quickly got up from the ground. When they saw Eight-cloud Ink, their expressions changed drastically. They quickly changed into battle mode and shielded Minos behind them.
Eight-cloud Ink did not care about the Harpy sisters' reaction. He just looked at Minos and said, "How is it?"
"Gamma …"
Minos looked at the twin Harpy sisters with a complicated expression.
"Did you fall asleep just now?"
"You fell asleep just now?"
The twin Hobbits looked at each other with strange expressions on their faces.
"That … is sleeping?"
"How is that possible? I thought we couldn't sleep? "
"I thought it was a reboot …"
The two sisters talked back and forth, their faces gradually filled with excitement.
Minos closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Just now, he had carefully examined Gemini's body, so he was certain that it was not a reboot.
Minos opened his eyes and looked at Gamma, who had fallen asleep for the first time. Gamma was so excited that she had forgotten about Eight-cloud Ink and that he was standing beside her. Minos suddenly felt dizzy.
Scenes from the past kept flashing through his mind.
"Our history is very ancient …"
He did not understand why he was doing this. Minos's voice sounded distant.
"As the first generation of Universal Angels to be created, Alpha is at least 70 million years old."
"It's fine."
Eight-cloud Ink smiled subtly.
"We demons can also live for a very long time. I've seen quite a few who are over a hundred million years old, and even in my family — ah, no, it's nothing …"
"That was close! Fortunately, I reacted quickly and changed my words. Otherwise, I would definitely be hunted down by my sister … "
Eight-cloud Ink secretly wiped the cold sweat on her forehead and secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Minos replied with a noncommittal "Hmm" and then continued to talk to himself, "That's right.
"We were once like the insects on the ground … like the humans on the ground. We gradually evolved from beasts, learned how to make fire, and developed our civilization bit by bit."
"If there's anything different, it's probably the pair of wings on our back and the fact that we don't dream."
Eight-cloud Ink quietly listened to Minos talk about the history of Synapse. Kaos, who was at the side, skipped over. Eight-cloud Ink naturally placed her hand on the little loli's head.
Caress, caress.
Kaos let out a sweet laugh that was different from the one that was filled with terror earlier.
"… Very, very long civilization development. Science kept improving, and we started to not age and die."
"Not age and die?"
Eight-cloud Ink sighed and secretly shook her head.
"Why? Do you think it's funny? "
Minos looked at Eight-cloud Ink.
"Yes. Actually, to us, that was the beginning of all misfortune."
"It's easy to understand." Eight-cloud Ink nodded. "As I'm quite familiar with King of Hell, I'm very clear that it's a very scary thing to have the lifespan of a long-lived species without the thoughts of a long-lived species."
"King of Hell?!"
Minos was instantly horrified.
"Yes, King of Hell, also known as Hell Demon, is a flat-chested loli who likes to preach. Whenever it's her rest day, she will run around in fantasy land. She can preach to anyone she brings along for the entire day … Ahhhhh! I can't take it anymore. Whenever I recall the experience of being preached by her, I feel that I'm not a demon anymore. I need to heal myself! "
Minos' eyes twitched as he looked at Eight-cloud Ink, whose body was turning gray. He squatted down and gently pinched Kaos' tender cheeks. Then, her body quickly regained its color.
"Big brother?"
The little loli tilted her head and looked at Eight-cloud Ink. She did not understand what had just happened.
… Minos suddenly felt that it was better not to let Kaos know too much.
"Eh? Why did you stop? Continue! "
Eight-cloud Ink looked at Minos, who was silent, strangely.
'You've completely ruined the atmosphere that I've worked so hard to create, alright?!'
I don't have the mood to reminisce about the past!!!
Minos suddenly felt very tired. He felt that he would not love again.
However, even so, he still continued to talk about Synapse's past with a pained heart.
"Our development gradually satisfied almost all of our needs. It even started to become difficult to find things that could not be realized. In the end, the slate was completed."
"Is it the obelisk outside?"
"Yes."
Minos nodded.
"You guys are really wasting God's gift!!"
Eight-cloud Ink looked at Minos with disappointment.
"You guys used a broken branch to make that thing, right?"
Minos looked at Eight-cloud Ink in surprise. "How did you know?"
"It's none of your business! Do you guys know how precious that thing is?!!! "
Once she remembered the broken branch of the Builder Tree that could no longer be used by her after Synapse's scourge, Yakumo felt a pang of pain — it really did!
"Oh … Big brother … Pain …"
Eight-cloud Ink, who was in a dilemma, pinched Kaos's little face a little too hard. The little loli immediately showed an unhappy expression.
"Ah ah, I'm sorry, little one!"
"Hehe …"
After comforting Kaos, Eight-cloud Ink sighed. "Forget it. Since that thing has been ruined by you guys, I won't say anything."
"Then? After you guys created that stone tablet, you guys, who had almost all of your desires, started to lose your pursuits, lost your ideals, and gradually collapsed? "
"Yes, those were really … very dark days …"
Minos's face darkened.
"Originally, there were hundreds of millions of Synapse people. Because of the large-scale suicides, there were only a few hundred of them left."
— — This is practically the end of their race, hey! You guys were really ruthless.
Eight-cloud Ink looked at Minos with a troubled expression.
"We started to make wishes to the stone tablet, hoping to live in a world filled with hope."
"But no matter how many times the world was reconstructed, nothing changed …"
"Later, we created humans."
"But we realized that humans, who were originally just toys, could easily possess things that we could never obtain."
"Ideals … Hopes … And dreams …"
Staring at Eight-cloud Ink, Minos asked with a tinge of anticipation and fear.
"Can you really do what you said before? Can we … can we … "
"Isn't it because you can obtain anything without sowing, so you feel that there's no passion?"
Eight-cloud Ink waved his hand impatiently.
"How pretentious. Do you know that if a certain shameless and immoral Red and White Witch were to find out about this situation, she would go crazy?"
"If you really want to find excitement, can't you just push down that stone tablet?"
"If you're dreaming, I can just cast a [Curse of Dream and Reality] on you guys."
"That's why …"
With an extremely serious expression, Eight-cloud Ink looked at Minos.
"You guys are so pretentious!"
After pausing for a while, Eight-cloud Ink added another stab at Minos's wonderful expression.
"This is an illness, you have to treat it."
