"Ring..." The doorbell rang slowly. Snow, who was playing with the cat, gave Lily a look. Lily immediately jumped out of his arms and ran towards the entrance.
Snow slowly adjusted his clothes and walked slowly to the living room. Not long after, he saw Lily leading Klein happily through the door.
Well, it’s not that I dislike it——
Ever since Klein spent a thousand gold pounds to buy sun earrings, Lily no longer dislikes Klein. One thousand gold pounds is a lot of small fish!
However, Klein himself didn't seem to realize the reason why the cat's attitude towards him changed. He just walked all the way to the living room, looked at Snow with a somewhat solemn expression and said:
"Mr. Devil, I have something to ask you."
Hearing Klein's rare strong tone, Snow was slightly startled, then smiled and said:
"As Mr. World, or as Sherlock Moriarty?"
"As the Fool's Favorite." Klein forced himself to maintain a serious expression. He was not good at this kind of disguise, but fortunately, the clown potion made up for his shortcomings.
This was also the reason why he came to see Snow even though he was sick and had to attend the "Blind Date Dinner" in the evening even though the Tarot Club was tomorrow.
Because in the Tarot Society, in front of the Fool, he, the Beloved, is not suitable to ask. The question must be limited to "the Beloved's personal behavior" in order to avoid the possible question of "Why doesn't Mr. Fool know?"
Confuse.
"Oh?" Snow pinched the bridge of his nose gently, and his expression became calmer with this action. He stood up and looked at Klein quietly, as if he was waiting for the "lecture" from the "god's envoy".
Seeing Mr. Demon's expression like this, Klein felt a little embarrassed for a moment, but he still held on to the aura of the "God's Favored One" and asked this strong man who could kill demigods easily -
"I have already completed the commission you asked me to report those wandering missionaries, but if I am not mistaken, the labor movement and gangsterism are also followers of the Aurora Society, right?"
"Do you want to ask me if these two organizations are my subordinates? Or do you want to ask me why I have developed so many followers of the Aurora Society?"
Snow raised his eyebrows, raised the corners of his mouth, and relaxed his slightly frowned brows. With the knowledge brought by the clown potion, Klein understood that this was a sign that Snow was relaxing.
"Both." Klein did not hide his ignorance. He was now a God-favored man who was dissatisfied when he saw his followers working hard to preach for other evil gods. Everything was his personal behavior and had nothing to do with Mr. Fool.
"Sit down and talk." Snow poured a cup of tea for Klein, regardless of whether he drank it or not. He picked up the teacup and took a sip, then sat on the sofa and flicked a coin, accompanied by silver light.
In a flash, the entire living room was sealed by spirituality, and then Klein heard Snow say in a relaxed tone:
"You only know that the True Creator today is an evil god, an evil existence that is always seeking to come, but have you, a college student in the history department, ever understood that as early as the Solomon Empire, the True Creator was the real Creator on this earth?
of Orthodoxy?”
"What?!" Klein did not use the clown to control his expression this time, but showed his surprise. Snow did not pay attention to his surprise and just continued:
"In the era of the Solomon Empire, the Six Gods, except for the God of Steam and Machinery who had not yet become gods at the time, reached a balance with the Black Emperor Solomon and the Hanged Man's True Creator. At that time, the state of the True Creator was still stable, but what happened later
Some things happened, the Black Emperor Solomon fell, and the True Creator was sealed in the Land Abandoned by God, which caused the True Creator to lose his anchor, and the originally stable mental state completely collapsed and turned into the crazy state it is now."
"Sure enough, the evil god is the crazy orthodox god!" Klein recalled his previous speculation after seeing the passage about "The Emperor of Hades is crazy" in Russell's diary, but he still looked at Snow and said:
"This is not a reason for you to spread faith in the already crazy evil god."
"Of course it is." Snow chuckled, added a cup of tea for himself, then pointed to his head and said:
"Did you know? Believers can also affect gods."
"Believers can also affect gods?" Klein had countless thoughts at this moment. He thought of the novels he had read before traveling through time, and Snow also said in time:
"You may have also noticed that the True God Church only enshrines a vague symbol without a specific image. On the contrary, many evil gods have specific images. Have you ever thought about why this is?"
"True Gods also have images." Klein thought of the statue in the basement that looked like the Six Gods for no reason, but then he thought that Snow had mentioned before that the true Creator of the Fourth Age was the true God, and he couldn't help but feel a little weird in his heart.
Seeing Klein thinking seriously, Snow was not in a hurry to continue. He waited for a moment before continuing:
"The true God needs the faith of mortals to stabilize his humanity, but the faith of mortals is too confusing. If he directly establishes his image, it will easily be subject to unnecessary contamination, leading to his own deflection. It probably feels like when all believers feel that God
When it should be like this, God will slide uncontrollably in that direction. For this reason, major righteous churches will only enshrine signs and filter out most impurities through abstract symbols."
"Then why did the evil god erect the statue directly? Aren't they afraid of it being deflected?" After Klein asked this question, he vaguely guessed the answer, and Snow also answered as expected:
"Because only worshiping abstract symbols can filter out impurities, but it will also significantly reduce the amount of faith. There are many believers in the Zhengshen Church, and even if a thousand copies are condensed into one, it will still be enough. But the evil gods obviously do not have this luxury. They
There are few believers and the condition is poor. Even if it is affected by the beliefs of believers, as long as it can get rid of the madness, it is still worth a try."
Although Klein still didn't understand the deeper meaning hidden in words such as human nature and status, he also roughly understood Snow's meaning. Later, he seemed to know a little bit about Snow's purpose.
Looking at Klein's eyes, an indescribable emotion gradually appeared, Snow spread his hands and said:
"You may have thought, yes, I am 'transforming the gods'. Since the believers' perception of the gods will affect the gods, then when most believers of the true creator think that the gods are a benevolent and kind-hearted great being,
, will the true Creator also gain mercy and kindness?”
