Chapter 1,185: Seeing destruction, there is nothing you can do
"I saw the destruction, but I didn't know the time or the cause of the destruction...I fell into panic."
Lawrence didn't interrupt, just bit his finger and looked at Roman.
Seeing destruction, but not knowing anything about destruction...
"My wish is to live as a human being, because I want to experience the happiness and fulfillment of being a human being. When I sat on that throne, I did not live for myself for even a second, so...this happened
An ordinary and ridiculous wish." Roman smiled to himself.
"...Don't say such things, Roman, you and I both know that that is the most beautiful thing." Lawrence shook his head and agreed with Roman's wish, "At least, for us, that is the most beautiful thing.
of."
"...Thank you, Lawrence." Roman looked up at Lawrence, smiled and nodded to her.
Happiness and fulfillment as a human being...are often what we pursue after great events.
Because for a magnificent life, this is the most precious thing.
"Although I want to pursue something like that,...no matter who you are, it's impossible for you to remain indifferent after seeing something like that." He shook his head with a wry smile, and Roman sighed involuntarily.
"So, I became a human and started investigating."
"But... there are no clues."
"After all, I am no longer King Solomon. That is not me. Now I am just Romani Achiman, an ordinary human being."
Lawrence pursed his lips, looking at Roman's frustrated face and tired eyes, not knowing what to say.
Seeing such a scene, anyone would be at a loss.
After all, the destruction of the world is such a terrible word...
"I didn't find anything out of the investigation. After all, I gave up everything and my abilities were extremely limited. So I started studying, hoping to do something before the destruction really came." Roman continued, "Then after that, it's now.
"
He said it very lightly, but the bitterness in it...
Others don't know, only you know that destruction is coming, but you don't know when it will come.
That sense of urgency, that overwhelming feeling, even if Lawrence was listening, he felt extremely suffocated.
"...Does Leonardo know?"
"Know."
Lawrence took a deep breath.
"What about Ritsuka and the others?"
"have no idea."
Lawrence breathed another sigh of relief.
"That's good."
"We can't tell Ritsuka and the others."
"I understand." Roman nodded and gently touched the ring on the middle finger of his left hand, "That kid Ritsuka has been holding on for a long time..."
"It's only natural to place the responsibility of saving humanity on a child." Lawrence sighed.
Not only her and Roman, but Camilla and Leonardo Da Vinci must also be able to see it.
Camila's attitude towards Roman is very contemptuous, and this must be one of the reasons.
There is something slightly wrong with Fujimaru Ritsuka's mental state.
She is so strong, so strong...it's a bit mind-numbing.
She is just a girl who has just turned seventeen, but she has managed to go so far in a singularity that can be called hell. All expectations and hopes are placed on her shoulders alone.
"So, do you have any clues about the Beast who calls himself King Solomon?"
Lawrence asked again: "What about those guys who call themselves Demon God Pillars?"
"I... don't know, but it should have something to do with the real King Solomon." Raising his hand and looking at the ring that glowed under the light, Roman murmured to himself, with a hint of emotion in his tone.
With heaviness.
"That's King Solomon's magic. I can recognize it, but its nature...has undergone earth-shaking changes. It's no longer what King Solomon is familiar with."
"As for that Beast... To be honest, at least for now, I haven't figured out what it is."
Roman shook his head, his own tone also a little helpless and uneasy.
"However, at least one thing is certain." He raised his head and looked into Lawrence's eyes.
"What?" Lawrence narrowed his eyes slightly.
"That's not King Solomon, or even his past." Roman said categorically, "King Solomon is indeed a worthless, cold-blooded waste and bastard, but he would never do such a thing, even if he turns into Alter.
That is impossible."
"...If you say this, it will indeed make people believe it." Lawrence didn't know where to start complaining, but...it seems that there is really no need to complain?
Patting his face again, Lawrence felt that his mind was a little tired and stood up. Suddenly he remembered something again and looked back at Roman: "By the way, what did you want to do when you came to my room?"
"Just to let you know, the cafeteria is open for dinner. There is pizza. Would you like to eat it?" Roman scratched his head blankly.
"What pizza? It won't be the same pineapple pizza as last time, right?" Lawrence looked confused.
"No, no, it's seafood pizza..." Roman waved his hand with an embarrassed smile, and then sighed, "But having said that, Chaldea's food warehouse is also a bit dangerous...
."
"How long can we last?" Lawrence became serious.
"About half a year. If you save a little, it can last for more than half a year. After all, there are not many people in Chaldea now, and there are still people who can use food to make magic. It may last longer than imagined.
."
"For the most part..." Lawrence bit his lips lightly and breathed a sigh of relief.
Raising his head and looking sideways at Roman, Lawrence couldn't help but shake his head and smile.
"So King Solomon was actually such a person... To be honest, I didn't believe this idea at first."
"Haha... After all, he is no longer King Solomon, isn't he?" Roman didn't know whether Lawrence was joking or really sarcastic.
After all, Lawrence's mouth can be really poisonous sometimes...
"Okay, let's go to the cafeteria."
With that said, Lawrence lifted the magic barrier he had set up in the room, stretched out, and decided to empty his mind.
"To be honest, you really scared me to death just now..." Roman patted his chest with a hopeless expression on his face, "I almost thought I would die in the hands of my companions...
..."
"Sorry, sorry, I just thought of this at the time, and I was really scared by you." Lawrence twitched the corner of his mouth, but at least he admitted his mistake.
"...Forget it, you're doing it for people's sake, right?" Roman didn't care that much and smiled casually, "Let's go, the pizza will be eaten if we don't go to the cafeteria."
