"The opposition between Science and Magic — What does that have to do with the Realm of Gods?"
The moment I said that, Fireweaver God almost choked on her breath.
"God, in your opinion, what is the fundamental purpose of Science and Magic?"
Looking at the conflicted expression on the young Saint's face, I instantly possessed myself.
"The fundamental purpose of Science and Magic?" It was obvious that God had never considered this question before. Thus, a confused expression appeared on her face. "If the power of Magic is developed to the extreme, it should be … the Realm of Gods … right?"
"Science is the same as well." I shook my finger in front of God, who was getting more and more confused. "Even though they say it differently, the Magic Faction calls it the mystery of the Gods, while the Scientific Faction is more used to calling it the various truths, laws, science and magic. They are all tools that mortals use to search for the ultimate truth of the world. In other words, the difference between Science and Magic is completely based on the method of searching for the truth."
"Your teachings are very beneficial!"
God immediately nodded her head respectfully.
"Then, to us, the opposition between Science and Magic is meaningless — Because we are the Truth."
"As the final answer, there is no need to care about the process of solving the problem. As for the ultimate truth, there is no need to care about the method used to search for the truth. You might think that Angels are mythical creatures and are the embodiment of the power of Magic, but in the end, the origin of this world has nothing to do with Magic or Science. It simply exists as the foundation of this world. From the beginning to the end, even if all of the power of Science and Magic were to disappear, the truth of this world would not change in the slightest. That is why I said that in the eyes of the 'Gods' who represent the Truth, Science and Magic are the same. They are both tools created by mortals to use to understand the world. As for the power of Gods, it is above any power of Science and Magic. Do you understand?"
God fell silent for a moment before she finally opened her mouth slowly. "Although I understand, and your teachings seem to be irrefutable, but … it is still hard to accept."
"That's true." I nodded my head. "Furthermore, most of the Angels are indeed mechanical idiots (That idiot Alaya even has to hold up the manual for half a day just to use a communicator!). After all, the education that you received since young is that Science and Magic are the absolute opposite of each other. That is why the humans of this world are only at the initial stage of civilization. "
"Is that so …"
Shen Lie said in a low voice, as if she was unable to accept something that was completely contrary to her common sense. Just as she had said, even though the theory sounded irrefutable, the reality was quite difficult to accept.
"Alright, let's not think about these headache-inducing things anymore." Seeing that she was about to fall into a philosopher's contradictory way of thinking, I felt my stomach protesting more and more, so I decisively chose to divert my attention. "Stay for dinner. I'll let you have a taste of my sister's cooking. What do you mean by that look in your eyes?"
Shen Lie looked at me with a strange expression. After a while, he finally asked in a low voice, "Do angels usually … cook?"
"Just pretend that everything is normal for me! Besides, we're here for a vacation. Even if we're here to experience life, we still have to live like humans, right? "
Just as I finished speaking, a rather energetic voice sounded from the door, "Big brother director! Commander Zuo Tian Lei Zi reporting for duty! "
I turned around and saw Zuo Tianlei, still in his Imperial Army uniform, standing at the door with a mischievous smile on his face. He cutely saluted me … Damn it! And it was a Nazi salute!
"Ah! It hurts!"
Zuo Tianlei, who was decisively hammered in the head by me, hugs his head. Then, he looks up at a 45-degree angle with pure eyes — yep, he looks up at the young Saint who is walking over out of curiosity. It can't be helped. From all aspects, the attention level of the Fireweave God is too high.
"Huh? Is there a guest? " Zuo Tianlei Zi immediately stood straight and bowed politely. "Hello, nice to meet you. I am Zuo Tianlei Zi. I am a metahuman who is conducting a superpower development experiment here. Please take care of me."
"Oh, nice to meet you …" God Rending Fireweaver paused for a while before he said hesitantly, "Nice to meet you. God Rending Fireweaver is … Mm, from here …"
He seemed to be someone who didn't know how to lie. Shen Lie hesitated for a long time before he pointed at me and said, "He is his servant!"
I instantly couldn't breathe, "Servant your head!"
But it was too late. Zuo Tianlei's gaze towards me suddenly became strange. He uttered a meaningful "Oh …"
I quickly changed the topic, "Oh yeah, Shen Lie, I happen to have something for you."
Even though it was a stupid way of changing the topic, Shen Lie immediately focused his attention on my hand.
I took out a silver-white longsword that was almost two meters long from my personal space.
The style of the saber was a little strange. It had a long and parallel blade like a Tang saber, but it was slightly wider than a normal Tang saber, and the arc was more obvious. The handguard at the hilt was narrower, and the scabbard was engraved with a series of complicated runes. Just by looking at the style of the saber, it was really hard to tell what style of weapon it was.
Of course, this wasn't something designed by humans. It wasn't even the ceremonial military sword that Commander Schilling used. Instead, it was a weapon that Jingle brought from the God Realm — — a replica.
Even I would find it difficult to use a real weapon created by the God race, let alone a God Fissure. This sword was an imitation of the weapons commonly used by the God race's royal Blade Guards. It had been modified to a certain extent according to the human's usage habits. The materials used were the strongest alloy that the Xi Ling Apostles could synthesize, and a small amount of stargold powder was mixed into it. Although it was on a completely different level from the God race's weapons, judging from its sharpness and its ability to break through magic, it was already a godly weapon that humans would never be able to imagine.
Originally, I made it to satisfy my otaku hobby of using cold weapons. In the end, when I really got my hands on it, I realized that other than being used as an ornament, it was useless. I didn't expect that Shen Lie would benefit from it.
"Didn't I break your sword the last time?" I passed the long sword in my hand to Shen Lie, who was still in a daze. "I'm sorry about that. This is an imitation of the God Realm's weapons. It should be suitable for your usage."
Shen Lie hesitantly took the long sword and weighed it in his hand. He immediately revealed a surprised and overjoyed expression. However, he still said embarrassedly, "This … gift is too expensive, I …"
"If I tell you to take it, then just take it. I'm not used to owing people anything." I pushed God's broken hand back without any explanation. "Other than its sharpness and sturdiness, this blade also has another characteristic. It can destroy any form of magic. It can even cut a Saint-ranked magic attack head-on. If it is used to deal with a mage, even an ordinary person can easily win. That's why I named it the Mage Breaker. However, if you don't like this name, you can change it."
"No, I like it very much!"
Shen Lie's face was filled with surprise as she replied loudly. Previously, when I broke her beloved sword into pieces, she was extremely disappointed for a few days. However, because the other party was the person whom she should worship, she could only swallow her disappointment. She didn't expect to receive such a huge 'compensation' today. If it wasn't for the sake of etiquette, she would have immediately rushed out to find a place with no one around to test the sword. Un, Steele's magic standard isn't bad. Perhaps, I can use him to test the Mage Breaker property of this sword …
Of course, Shen Lie didn't come here just to inform me. She seems to be shouldering some other mission. It must be a troublesome mission given by a fox woman so that her subordinates wouldn't be idle. Looking at Shen Lie's unwilling expression, I could roughly guess what it was. However, since she didn't want to say, I didn't ask. After lunch, the young Saint, who had slightly alleviated her depression after obtaining the sword, stood up and left.
The troublesome Roman Orthodox Church, what troublesome fellows.
I couldn't stand that bunch of religious lunatics from the very beginning. Now, they actually intend to make use of this opportunity to lay their hands on the Academy City?
However, I was curious as to why Aresta didn't have any reaction at all.
As a 'human' who was able to control every corner of the Academy City, there was no reason for him not to notice the activities of the Roman Orthodox Church. Even if he wasn't able to find those powerful members of the Roman Orthodox Church who had already blended into the crowd, it was impossible for him to be completely unaware of their activities. However, under Pandora's surveillance, Aresta indeed didn't have any reaction to the Roman Orthodox Church's recent actions. The existence of a high-level 'agreement' between the English Puritans and the Academy City is still acceptable. However, what does Aresta intend to do with the Roman Orthodox Church, a power that wishes for the entire scientific side to die?
Carrying these endless questions in my heart, Shallow Shallow and I slowly walked along the riverbank of the city near the Seventh School District.
"It feels like it's been a long time since the two of us were able to spend time alone like this … It seems like we've been really busy recently …"
A soft voice suddenly sounded beside me. Shallow Shallow hooked her arm around my arm as we walked forward. Other than her usual cheeky and energetic appearance, she also had a quiet and obedient side to her.
What's the point of thinking about such troublesome matters? Right now, I should be enjoying the time that I have with Shallow Shallow.
As I thought this self-deprecating thought, I suddenly pulled Shallow Shallow into my arms and then carried her off the ground like a princess carry.
"Ah! Ah Jun, what are you doing! "
Shallow Shallow shrieked, but she quickly calmed down. She leaned her head lightly against my chest and said in a low voice, "If you scare me like this again, I'll bite you."
… You're too close to Jingle.
I lowered my head and lightly kissed Shallow Shallow on the lips. Then, I faced the sunset in high spirits and heroically asked, "Baby, where do you want to go?"
Shallow Shallow immediately arched her body and said, "I want to eat Mala Tang! And Zhajiang Noodles! "
Mala Tang and Zhajiang Noodles, this was the true happiness between me and this girl who had always defined her position as a normal girl. From the days when we played in the mud at the entrance of the alley to the holidays in another world, Shallow Shallow had never changed at all. This was what I liked about her the most.
However, this school city …
Could we really find Mala Tang and Zhajiang Noodles?
"Yeah! Barbecue is not bad too! "
We didn't find Mala Tang, but we did find a barbecue stall. Should we exclaim that this was too dramatic? This mysterious barbecue uncle who appeared many times in the original work, the omnipotent barbecue stall owner who was known as Doraemon, actually met me and Shallow Shallow.
"Hahhh, Ah Jun, this squid skewer is really delicious!"
Qian Qian's mouth was covered in grease as she mumbled.
I swallowed the squid skewer that Shallow Shallow passed to me. Then, I waved my hand and said, "Boss! Two more roasted lamb chops! "
"Oh! That's good! "
"Two more roasted yams!"
"Oh! That's good! "
"… What about roasted vermicelli?"
"Oh! That's good! "
"Uncle, do you have roasted sperm whale ribs?"
"Oh! That's good! "
Then, I was shocked.
"Hey, Ah Jun." Shallow Shallow suddenly came over and asked in a low voice, "Do you think that if we roast the Progenitor Dragon's wings …"
"That will have to wait for a moment. The meat of the Progenitor Dragon isn't easy to cook … Haha, I'm just joking. I'm not a mage. I can't make something like the Progenitor Dragon appear."
The barbecue uncle laughed heartily as he served the pile of strange things that Qian Qian and I had ordered.
At this moment, a familiar voice came from behind us. "Hey, Uncle Inspector? And Big Sister Shallow Shallow, why are you here? "
"Hei Zi? And Mei Qin? "
I turned around and called out in surprise when I saw who it was. Then, I reacted half a beat slower and hit a certain lesbian girl with two ponytails. "You better call me Big Brother, you bastard! What's up with this difference in treatment!? "
Shirai Kuroko hugged his head and secretly glanced at me. Then, he suddenly put on an exaggerated expression of delusion and closed his eyes. He cupped his hands over his heart and said, "Ah, today is a rare date between Kuroko and big sister. In order to not disturb this happy time that finally arrived, Kuroko and big sister came here … Eh, speaking of which, Big Brother Director and big sister Qian Qian are also on a date? If that's the case, then we are two pairs of lovers. It really is a memorable encounter. "
But don't you think that if a man and three women are called two pairs of lovers, they will fall into a strange situation no matter how they are grouped?
Compared to my ridicule, Osaka Mei Qin's solution was much simpler: With a crack of thunder, Hei Zi was sent flying out of the arena.
"Didn't you forcefully drag me out!? When did it become a date, you curious fellow! " With lightning surrounding her body, Osaka Mei Qin angrily shouted at Shirai Hei Zi, who was smoking on the ground not far away. Then, she suddenly turned her face towards me, who was watching the show. "And you! What the hell happened that day! Why did you suddenly leave me alone? Then, there was a pipe explosion and a certain factory boiler went out of control. Did it have anything to do with you guys? "
After saying the last sentence, Osaka Mei Qin, who was originally in a berserk state, lowered her voice and asked in a low voice.
Boiler went out of control? Pipe explosion? Aresta, do you dare to slack off any more? Such a large area turned into a basin, several outlying buildings were destroyed, and even now, the medical facilities there are still full, and you say that it was because the boiler went out of control? Do all the boilers in the school city burn Uranium-235!?
Well, since the problem of dealing with the aftermath has already been pushed to that old fox, he can do whatever he wants. If he says that someone illegally set off fireworks and caused half of the city to explode, I have no objections.
Looking at Osaka Mei Qin's angry yet stubborn expression of concern, I smiled faintly and said in a low voice, "The sisters are already safe."
"What?"
This reply was obviously something Osaka Mei Qin didn't expect at all. Even though she mentioned the matter of Osaka's sisters that day, she didn't expect that just by mentioning it, we would even use a terrorist attack (her own imagination) to settle the entire matter. Thus, the young girl was shocked.
"What's with that look?"
I looked at Osaka Mei Qin unhappily, "We used legal and legal methods to change the person in charge of the school city's view of life through humanitarianism. Furthermore, we cautiously and kindly educated the students who were the main participants of the experiment …"
Shallow Shallow nodded and added, "Although we used explosions, explosions, and even explosions in the process …"
"But it was all done in the name of love and peace!"
"Hey, hey, hey, are you guys joking!?" Osaka Mei Qin didn't know how far she had imagined our actions. She looked at me with the gaze of an American envoy who was negotiating with the Taliban. "You must be joking, right?!"
"Anyway, you don't have to worry about the process," I smiled and patted Osaka Mei Qin's head, "How do I put it, our identities are rather special. After using some special methods yesterday, the 'Absolute Ability Project' can be considered to have been safely terminated. The Osaka girls should be transferred to my research institute in the next few days for their bodies to be adjusted. When that time comes, you can come and visit them whenever you want …"
"Is this true …" Osaka Mei Qin suddenly lowered her head and asked in a low voice. Before I could reply, she continued, "Is this true … Is it really over … Really …"
"It's true."
I placed both my hands on Osaka Mei Qin's shoulders and exerted a little force, "So, don't cry …"
"No, I'm not crying!" Osaka Mei Qin suddenly raised her head. Even though her eyes were still a little red, she had already stopped crying, "I'm just a little, a little emotional, I'm not crying!"
"Okay, okay, okay, you're not crying, you're not crying." Looking at Osaka Mei Qin in this state, for some reason, I actually felt the same as when I was coaxing Little Bubble, "Then, to celebrate, how about I treat you to some barbecue?"
"Uncle —" At this moment, a gloomy voice suddenly came from behind us. Shirai Kuroko, who had been forgotten by everyone for a long time, actually revived on the spot. At this moment, he was standing behind me with black smoke swirling around his body. "Unforgivable … He actually made big sister cry … Unforgivable!!!"
"Hey, hey! Don't suddenly pounce on me! I'm your senior, right? At least give me … Hey! "
