I am a witch, I must suppress all enemies
Chapter 104 History of Time
Nanoha pleaded in a pleading tone, "Now the entire world is almost completely overrun by bloodthirsty monsters. How can the gods just sit back and do nothing about it?"
The queen replied, "Everything that happens in this world is predetermined. This world has experienced tens of thousands of years since the beginning of recorded history."
"But the years were peaceful. Fate suppressed all contradictions, resentments, and curses, attempting to dissolve them in the long river of history."
"How can the grudges be willing to be forgotten by history? Now is the time for them to show their spirit."
Claire sneered, "What a bullshit fate. In the past, the dead couldn't speak. The so-called resentment today is nothing more than something we, the modern people, construct retrospectively through history books. This world is cruel. All the dead leave behind are cold bones and uncared-for dust."
"Do you think I don't know? You elves are indeed very long-lived, so it's natural for you to consider yourself as witnesses of history and attempt to speak for past events."
"Actually, that's just your subjective opinion. You've lived too long."
The queen sighed and said, "You will live this long in the future. I once traveled to the southern continent. In the past, there were frequent conflicts between demihumans and humans in the south, resulting in constant killings and the bullying and enslavement of the weak."
"I felt their pain, and soon they died. And then they became a part of history. It would be pitiful if immortals like us were to forget about them!"
"So? Are you going to help or not?"
The hall suddenly became quiet.
The queen's gaze traveled through time and space, as if she saw the distant future.
"The oracle cannot be disobeyed. I can only point you in the right direction. As for the Elven God, whether he welcomes you or not..."
......
Leaving the elf village, we headed towards the Arctic Sanctuary.
Nanoha complained.
"Why is the Elf Queen so ruthless? I don't understand a word she says."
Liana and Claire looked at each other, then tacitly used the laws to suppress Nanoha in an instant.
Nanoha said in disbelief, "What are you doing?"
"How do you feel now?"
Nanoha also reacted and continued to struggle, "What are you feeling? Of course I'm angry. Why did you suddenly attack me?"
"You're angry now. It's because we attacked you. It's normal for someone who's been attacked to feel angry, right?"
"of course."
"If I kill you, you will probably feel resentment when you die."
"Maybe... No, there will definitely be one." Nanoha said honestly.
"Well, now you're dead."
Claire and the other withdrew their divine power.
"Years have passed, and your resentment has vanished like the wind. No one cares about you or remembers you anymore."
"For tens of thousands of years, countless weaklings like this have been oppressed and killed by the powerful. We modern people don't seem to care. Even if someone reads about such massacres in history books, they will only sigh: This is history."
“I want to ask, aren’t we history now?”
Nanoha seemed to understand something and suddenly shuddered.
"Yes. I was defeated once, and the anger and unwillingness I felt almost made me lose my mind. At one point, that thought even made me hate the entire world."
Claire thought of the resentment she felt in her previous life and said calmly.
"But time is merciless. I don't believe in karma in the afterlife. The Queen said that all the disasters today are caused by past evil deeds."
"But I think this resentment isn't caused by the past. It's the evil of the present."
"People in the past were just dead, nothing but bones. Why bother using their ancestors' reputation to whitewash yourself? I've finally figured it out."
"The source of this hatred comes from the present world."
Claire had long discovered that this world was abnormal.
Magicians and knights are high above, ruling over all the lower classes forever, but they all take it as the most normal thing.
But when the magician used his privilege and power with a contemptuous tone to kill the poor man's son.
Don’t those civilians who are watching feel any resentment or hatred in their hearts?
Think about why you were so eager to gain power at that time?
Isn't it a way to get out of this predicament?
“Those who believe that power is distant and irrelevant to them will one day be hurt by it.”
"The root of everyone's pursuit of power is caused by the outside world."
"My initial thoughts turned out to be correct. Whether this world is essentially a world where the strong prey on the weak is not something I can decide, not even God can."
"My former neighbors in the same village often said: 'I behave properly and behave in a respectful manner. Wherever I go, people look up to me.'"
"But before a predator kills someone, he won't ask you if you have a noble character."
Nanoha shook her head desperately, "You're thinking too much. This isn't right! Compared to power, the happiness around you is the most important thing."
Fate was also constantly wavering.
From time to time, she tightened her grip on the lightning battle axe in her hand, then let it go in confusion.
"That's right. It doesn't matter what the essence of the world is; it's actually the human spirit itself!"
The edge of the extremely cold sanctuary.
There was a woman's clear laughter.
That laughter was mixed with the vast laws of nature, and the feeling was exactly the same as April's.
With such powerful natural laws, could it be an elf god?
Claire's spirits lifted as she shouted, "Elf God, since you've heard our discussion, why don't you show yourself?"
The sound was sometimes far away and sometimes near, making it impossible to tell its direction.
"I know what you are planning, but I don't want to go down the mountain."
Claire pondered, was she sealing herself?
The voice then continued, "I'm not being pity for my lifespan! It's just that that person is too powerful. I'm no match for him. Unless you can persuade all the gods in the sanctuary to help you."
Claire smiled and said, "I've fought that guy before, and he's not that strong."
The sound turned into a figure, blurry and unclear.
"But he did grasp the thread of fate. He traveled a long way on the road to Heaven's Gate."
"Destiny? Does it really exist?"
The figure sighed, "What is fate? It's what you just mentioned. All living beings have long hoped for such a calamity."
Claire expressed her incomprehension. Could it be that all living beings, that is, the vast majority of the weak, would want to strike a blow against the strong even if it meant destroying themselves?
Indeed, the resentment of the corpse ghosts caused disaster to all magicians below the level of saints, which wiped out 99% of the extraordinary people.
Some unlucky powerful saints were also polluted.
But those who are the strongest and in an absolute position are sitting on the Diaoyutai.
