Chapter 27: I can finally get information normally
Subconsciously pulling out her arm from the hands of the demon twins, Gaia's face was full of vigilance:
"As I said before, I just want to be with the person I like. Otherwise, please forgive me for refusing. And how old are you two that you are doing this kind of thing and still look happy?"
After complaining continuously, Gaia found that the two little devils were still smiling:
"Hahaha, so fun!"
"I'm so shy! I'm so shy!"
"But, Miramichi's age——"
"But it's a secret"
"Secret size, Mr. Gaia, to tell you the truth, these two guys are already tens of thousands of years old. If they really want to eat young grass, they will eat young grass. It has nothing to do with you."
While silently drinking her previous drink, Dora said this unexpectedly, immediately attracting the firepower of the Demon Twins to herself:
"Huh? Dora, you are so bad!"
"Revealing a lady's age,"
"It's the worst thing!"
"And do pull yourself,"
"Isn't it also several hundred years old?" x2
"Fool! Even if I'm hundreds of years old, I'm still better than you two shameless devils who mess around all day long and call themselves ladies!"
Not satisfied with just talking about it, Dora got up directly, got entangled with the demon twins who got up, and rolled to the side to make a fuss.
The guests on the second floor seemed not to be surprised by this kind of scene, and they all turned a blind eye and continued with what they were doing.
After staring at Dora and the Demon Twins who were making a fuss for a while, after making sure that they wouldn't really fight, Penke sighed and raised his hand to the drink counter:
"Please bring me a glass of the strongest wine, thank you."
Gaia saw her unmotivated look and shrugged helplessly, expressing her sympathy for Penk.
What kind of team is it that can allow the Amazons of the fighting faction to play the calm role?
Taking the liquor brought by the bartender, Penke drank a large gulp of it before calming down a little:
"Okay, since Mr. Gaia is also willing to join our team's mission, what information do you want to know about this situation? You don't have to be polite to me. After all, we are the ones who asked you to join us. There will be some information that can be shared.
Don’t hide it or tuck it in.”
"Hmm~"
Standing with the fingers of his hands interlaced in front of him, Gaia lowered his head slightly and assumed a deep posture of a commander:
"Miss Penk, you probably already know from Miss Shamis that I am not from this era, so if possible, I hope you can start with some basic common sense.
Of course, it would be too difficult to tell them all, so I will just list a few things that I currently want to know so that you can explain them, Miss Penke."
Gaia paused here and waited until Penke nodded to express understanding before continuing:
"So first of all, I want to know what this so-called blessing is?"
"Bless me..."
After taking another sip of wine, Penke wiped his chin with the back of his hand and began to explain seriously:
"First of all, Mr. Gaia, you should know the concept of magic element, right?"
"Oh, I still know this. It is very convenient and at the same time very powerful in conversion efficiency...how should I say it, energy?"
After thinking for a moment, Gaia hesitated to give his own understanding.
"It can indeed be called a kind of energy. After all, the use of blessings, the research and development of magic, and the continuation of roadside lighting all depend on magic. It can be said that this thing is given by the mother goddess Odell to the living beings.
best gift."
No, that thing is actually the waste gas I exhale, just like you breathe out... This world shouldn't be carbon dioxide, right?
Forget it, whatever it is.
After silently taking a sip of the drink, Gaia nodded awkwardly in agreement.
"Using magic, the previous civilizations of this world achieved very high achievements, but then they were destroyed overnight for unknown reasons, which has become something that many historians cannot understand.
After thinking about it, the most likely scenario is that it angered the gods, thus leading to its own demise."
Speaking of this, Penke's face was mixed with piety, seriousness, and vague fear.
Just looking at Penke's expression, Gaia suddenly wanted to laugh.
The gods do not have that kind of ability. Not to mention that they were just formed at the end of the previous civilization. They are as fragile as babies. Even if they really have great power, they will fall under hundreds of magic nuclear bombs, and their remains will remain.
It was dissected by humans.
He thought so, but Gaia didn't show it on his face and continued to ask:
"In that case, blessings are also related to the gods, right?"
Looking at Gaia with some surprise, who didn't care much about the power of the gods, Penke was convinced that he came from a world where the gods were weak and the degree of interference was limited.
But given the past experience of the abyssal species who completely do not believe in God, and even Lucifer, the king of the abyss, fights with the local gods every now and then, Penke just sighed and did not find it strange:
"No, in fact blessings have nothing to do with the gods. After years of research, scholars have concluded that our modern magic is too disordered compared to previous civilizations to be able to achieve accurate results.
Arranged, the newborn will be affected by the chaos magic element and awaken all kinds of strange and unique abilities."
"In other words, every person in the modern native world has a unique ability..."
Caressing her chin thoughtfully, Gaia suddenly felt that something was not right:
"But, if everyone has it, why did the orcs I fought with just now not use their blessings, but choose to fight with weapons?"
Upon hearing Gaia's question, a meaningful smile appeared on Penke's face:
"Mr. Gaia, do you think that the so-called blessings are extremely powerful and widely effective abilities?"
Looking at Gaia who was stunned after hearing this, Penke sighed and put down his empty wine glass:
"Actually, that's not the case. Most people's blessings in this world can only be used in daily life to facilitate themselves. Otherwise, the streets are full of extremely powerful blessings, and if no one accepts them, it won't be like that.
It’s so peaceful now.”
Just as he was talking, Peng Ke couldn't help but a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes.
In addition to the blessings that facilitate daily life, there are also blessings that hinder one's life...
Keenly aware of Penk's depressed mood, Gaia immediately understood that she was lamenting her blessing.
A good fighting nation, but because of the blessings that should have brought convenience to them, they were forced to stay away from home and even change their life trajectory. You can imagine Penk's mood at this time.
But Gaia had nothing to say, and casual comfort would only show how much she sympathized with Penk. This was just an insult to Penk, who had persisted all the way and even became a magician.
So, Gaia followed suit and waved to the drink counter, ordering another glass of the strongest wine.
Chapter completed!
