He closed his eyes and fell into deep thought with the help of his clear mind.

After a moment, he waved his hand and a paper man appeared, then he shook it and threw it towards himself.

With a "pop" sound, the paper man ignited with red flames, and dense illusory wings grew on its back. Then it suddenly expanded and turned into an angel with twelve pairs of black wings. It hugged Edward in its arms and turned into a faint light that merged into his body.

That's right, this is exactly the angel servant that Klein will use to "bless" the members of the Tarot Club in the future.

Normally, if one wants to use the Angel's Mercenary, one needs to borrow the Blasphemy Card to leverage the power of Sefirah Castle. However, after reaching Sequence 3 and becoming the "Master" of Sefirah Castle, one no longer needs the Blasphemy Card and can just "use the hand".

"It's no use."

Before the angel's illusion completely dissipated, Edward knew the result.

"I learned that."

Amon nodded and smiled, "When I become the master of Sefirah Castle in the future, I will do the same. The paper figures I use should be difficult for even a paranoid person to break. However, your lack of humanity is not caused by some kind of ability, so it's useless for you to do this."

"Why not listen to my advice?"

Edward wiped Amon's mouth with a wave of his hand, then took out the gold coin and threw it gently: "My lack of humanity is irreversible."

He took the coin and spread out his fingers: the number was facing up, indicating no.

So, it's reversible?

He was a little surprised for a moment. He had been thinking of using [Madman on the Right] to force a reversal, but now he didn't have to rush.

Edward thought about it, and quickly wrote down the divination statement on the materialized parchment: A way to help me restore my humanity.

"A way to help me regain my humanity..."

After repeating it silently seven times, he leaned back and closed his eyes.

After a pitch-black night, his own figure appeared in the illusory dream world. "He" stood on an empty island, gears turning in his eyes, and used [Degeneration] - and the target was himself!

Then, silver-white lightning flashed, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and thunders fell one after another, all striking him, and instantly the entire island was covered in endless lightning.

Having fallen to Sequence 5, he was struck into charcoal and then turned into ash without much struggle under the Sequence 2 lightning storm - deader than dead.

At this point, the dream ends.

Edward's body shook and he woke up from his dream.

"The way to restore humanity... is suicide?"

If he had not been in Sefirah Castle, he would have suspected that someone had tampered with his divination.

Could it be Amon?

He cast a scrutinizing look.

Amon immediately raised his wings and "grew" a mouth again, shouting, "Hey, what's that look in your eyes? I've shut up, don't push your luck!"

No,

Not to mention that Amon was forcibly controlled by the reversal of "Madman on the Right", he became the true master of Sefirah Castle after being promoted to Sequence 3. Not to mention that he is an angel king, even gods cannot tamper with the results of my divination in Sefirah Castle.

So, the solution is really suicide?

So what is the principle behind this?

Edward kept muttering to himself and throwing gold coins to verify. He almost repeated all the possible situations until a certain moment a piece of information suddenly appeared in his mind:

That was the information about the potion I received when I was promoted to Sequence 4 Spirit Mage last time:

[Sequence 4 Spirit Mage]

Also known as the "mind mage", he can switch freely between the spiritual and physical states.

Memory is immortal, the soul is immortal. ~ Like ^ mosquito ^ king? ~ has been published? The most ^ salary / cockroach * clean -

"Understood."

It turns out that those eight words are not just a description, but the core ability of the spiritual mage: as long as the memory of himself still exists, he can be resurrected in the memory of others after death.

Immortality in the true sense!

"Then new problems arise."

Edward still analyzed calmly, "I am resurrected in the memory of others, so I will definitely be affected by their 'inherent impression'. So after resurrection, I am likely to still be lacking in humanity..."

wrong,

It seems that not everyone remembers me as that mysterious "spirit," like DuBois and Bernadette.

But do I really need to restore my humanity?

Is that really what I need? Seeing and dealing with everything calmly and rationally is better than being hesitant and entangled, right?

Is the existence of human nature really that important?

This world is so dangerous, especially after being disturbed by me, will it still develop smoothly as in the original book? Even Adam chose to "die" to merge with the real creator in advance, does it mean that this world is likely to have some unknown changes - even more dangerous?

If we can't even survive, what's the point of having abundant humanity?

"…"

As his thoughts surged, Edward's desire to regain his humanity faded, and he felt more and more that it might be better to maintain his current state.

Until his eyes swept across the elementary school textbook on the side.

After a brief hesitation, he reached out and took it, gently flipping through it, looking at Lilith's childish notes, the squashed little red flower, and the words Lilith had written on the back of the little red flower: "Ms. Lilith is the smartest cat!"

At this moment,

Although he still couldn't figure it out, his spiritual premonition told him that he should restore his humanity.

Edward closed the textbook, "That's it."

"Huh? Did you find a solution?"

Amon, who had been observing Edward, couldn't help but ask out of curiosity - he was really curious.

"Um."

Edward nodded and disappeared into the Sephira Castle.

"Huh? Just leaving like that?"

Amon curled his lips, "I still like him better than before. At least he's more interesting to talk to."

"human nature?"

Oh, what an interesting existence.

I'm really curious about how he "injected" humanity into me. What will Amon become with more humanity?

He tilted his head and imagined for a while, but found nothing.

As expected, people can never imagine what they don't understand.

Da da da.

He transformed into a woodpecker again and started pecking at the cage.

...

Back to reality, Edward took a step forward and his figure became illusory and disappeared.

The next second, we arrived at the starry sky.

Although he had seen this scene more than once, he had only seen it in the world of consciousness when he was promoted, and it was more of an "illusion of consciousness."

This was his first time setting foot in the universe in the true sense. The feeling of being surrounded by the brilliant sea of ​​stars was indeed very different from before.

Vastness, boundlessness, depth, darkness... more of a sense of horror that makes people feel insignificant.

Low temperature, radiation, cosmic particles, solar wind... and the pollution from the outer gods that is rapidly coming from all directions. As a wanderer, I am naturally not afraid of the crisis coming from "nature" ahead, but what is really scary is the pollution from the outer gods.

Think about it, Emperor Roselle might be the second extraordinary person to set foot in the universe in thousands of years after Mr. Men. The reason why he was able to return safely was not because he was so powerful, but because the Fallen Mother Goddess wanted to use him as a nail to invade the earth.

"Ya Zi."

Faced with the pollution that was invading from all directions and made his hair stand on end, Edward simply uttered two words coldly.

The next second,

Waves of angry roars seemed to penetrate the vacuum environment and reach Edward's ears.

At the same time, his figure disappeared, and he returned to Earth and came to a deserted island deep in the foggy sea.

The first experience of [Roaming] has come to an end.

Chapter 571 I'm alive again!

In general, it is indeed much stronger than [Traveler's Gate].

The Traveler's Gate only opens a portal to the spirit world. If you want to go somewhere else, you still have to "run" through the spirit world.

As for roaming, although it also needs to pass through the starry sky or star realm as a "transit station", the actual operation is roughly: first teleport from point a to point b, and then teleport from point b to point c. The process in between can almost be omitted.

Yeah, not bad.

Edward nodded, then tossed the gold coin to make sure there was no problem. Without any hesitation, the ancient gears in his eyes began to creak and turn, aiming directly at himself.

An intense feeling of weakness ensued.

Sequence 4, sequence 5, sequence...

He snapped his fingers lightly, and dark clouds gathered above the deserted island.

As the light suddenly lit up, bolts of lightning "leaped" out from the void, entangled together, and turned into a thunder forest emitting a breath of destruction.

Edward looked at the lightning calmly, his eyes were reflected with a silver-white color, his heart was as calm as water, without any fear - they could all be resurrected anyway, and this was what he needed anyway, so what was there to be afraid of?

Boom!

A silvery-white light suddenly spread in his pupils, and the entire island was instantly swallowed up by the Thunder Forest, along with the surrounding sea.

The moment before consciousness fades,

Edward's thought was: Is this what death feels like?

seem,

Nothing.

...

April this year seems to be much slower than previous years.

Bernadette was wearing pajamas, holding her chin, holding the Little Mermaid and Snow White dolls in her hands, sitting by the piano, looking out the window at the colorful garden under the crimson moonlight, and thought so.

First, my father went out to sea to explore without me.

Then my mother suddenly found a tutor for me and I had to take classes every day.

If it were just that, it would be fine. With Mr. Sparrow around, it would be quite fun to go to the sea to look for mermaids and visit my father occasionally.

But suddenly, he disappeared too.

After the old man in the church left, Bernadette immediately ran to No. 28 Emerald Street to play with Mr. Sparrow, but the butler Dubois told her that Mr. Sparrow was out and had not returned yet.

But he clearly said it would only take 3 days!

Adults always lie!

So Bernadette waited and waited, and waited.

One day, two days... one week, two weeks, three weeks...

Mr. Sparrow never returned.

During this process, she certainly tried to recite the three "spells", but received no response either.

She couldn't help but start to worry, wondering if Mr. Sparrow had encountered any danger. After worrying about Mr. Sparrow, she began to worry about her father. At such a young age, she had to bear the troubles that she shouldn't have to bear.

Why--

Looking up with her hands clasped together, she looked at the moon devoutly. Bernadette prayed softly, "God, please bless Dad and Mr. Sparrow to come back safely as soon as possible!"

Boom boom boom.

At this time, Matilda knocked on the door, opened it, and stood at the door and said, "Bernadette, it's time to go to bed. You have to get up early for class tomorrow."

"Okay, Mom."

She jumped off the stool, climbed onto the bed quickly, and got under the quilt.

Matilda walked to the bed and sat down: "Do you need mom to tell you a bedtime story?"

"No need, mom~"

Matilda kissed her forehead gently, "Okay, good night then. ^咸/鱼_墈/书/ ￠嶵￠新, 蟋/结?耕-新￠哙`"

"Good night, mother."

Bernadette shrank her head into the quilt and watched her mother leave after turning off the light. She felt a little disappointed. "Oh, if the mother just now… was someone created by Mr. Sparrow, it would be great."

She pursed her lips, let out a long breath, and closed her eyes: "Good night, Mom, Dad, and Mr. Sparrow."

Sleepiness gradually came over her and her consciousness became blurred.

I don't know how much time passed, but suddenly there was a "pop" sound, waking Bernadette up.

"Ah! Ouch, my butt!"

Then, a voice was heard from the darkness.

Bernadette immediately sat up with a start, hurriedly wrapped herself in the quilt, looked at the figure sitting on the floor, and shouted: "Who, who is there?!"

"It's me, Beibei."

Bernadette was stunned by the other party's answer, and she was a little surprised - so far, only one person would call herself "Beibei", and that was naturally Mr. Sparrow.

But the man's voice was clearly not Mr. Sparrow's.

Of course, Bernadette knew that Mr. Sparrow could change his appearance and voice at will, but... what she heard was clearly a very clear and hoarse voice of a child.

Pop.

With a snap of fingers, the room lit up.

Bernadette narrowed her eyes instinctively, then immediately widened them and looked:

I saw a boy who was not much older than me and slightly taller, rubbing his butt as he sat up from the floor. He had short, smooth brown hair, black pupils, and was wearing a slim black windbreaker. At first glance, he looked like a little adult.

What a kid?!

Bernadette rubbed her eyes, but...but why would this boy suddenly appear in my room in the middle of the night, and even know the nickname "Beibei" that only Mr. Sparrow knew?

etc!

Her eyes suddenly widened, and a look of disbelief gradually emerged in them.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Edward looked down in confusion, then realized, "No, what's wrong with my voice?"

"My hands, feet, legs... my body..."

Oh shit!

What is going on?

Edward flashed to the bathroom, and when he saw himself in the mirror, he was completely stunned:

"How did I... become a child?!"

Da da da!

Bernadette trotted over at this time, lying at the door of the bathroom with curiosity and vigilance on her face, and asked in a low voice: "You... are Mr. Sparrow?"

"…"

Edward turned his head and gave a forced smile: "I... I'm not sure if I am."

Before she could ask any more questions, Edward stretched out his hand and said, "Wait for me to stroke it first!"

He closed his eyes and knocked his head hard. The fragmented memories quickly emerged and then quickly integrated together into complete memories.

Promoted to Sequence 3, lost humanity, fortune-telling, committed suicide, and resurrected in memory.

Soon, Edward remembered everything.

After he was "killed" by the lightning, he once again turned into a stream of information like data. However, this time he did not travel uncontrollably through the memories of different people like he did when he was promoted to Sequence 3. Instead, he presented those memories in front of him and let him choose.

There were Amon, Medici, Pales, Roselle, Renette, Adam, Hermes, and of course Dubois, Bernadette, and even some servants and slaves in the house.

It seems like a lot, but the actual choices are quite limited.

People like Medici Palers Rosel first exclude that the reason they lost their humanity is because they were influenced by the images in their "memory". Using their memories to resurrect is a waste of time.

Amon and Adam themselves have human problems, so they are not taken into consideration.

The servants and slaves in the house had very limited and vague understanding of themselves, and could not even be used to resurrect them.

So the final options were only Dubois and Bernadette.

Edward's first choice was Dubois, after all, as a child, Bernadette had too many unknowns. But just before he made his move, he suddenly remembered that Dubois might have a serious and terrible misunderstanding of him: He seemed to have always believed that I didn't like women!

Although he later heard that he had a daughter, it seemed that this doubt had been dispelled, but who knows what he really thought in his heart?

Since I can lose my humanity due to the influence of other people's memories, who knows if I will really become a gay because of Du Bois's misunderstanding!

Just think about it, after more than a hundred years, I finally "reunited" with Audrey, but ended up being sisters with her. That would be really... extremely ridiculous!

So, Edward made the final decision - to be resurrected in Bernadette's memory!

But what he didn't expect was that the "resurrection" of the spiritual master was not effective immediately. It took nearly three weeks from the time the decision was made to the successful resurrection today.

Then, he turned into a little boy less than ten years old.

If he died again and was resurrected through Bernadette's memory again, it would take longer - until Bernadette's memory of him was completely erased, and he would not be able to be resurrected through her memory.

Now thinking back to when he easily made the decision to "commit suicide", it felt like a dream. He seriously doubted that he did not lose his humanity and become "rational" at all, but was acting out the "madman" traits left over from "mental illness"!

Who is a normal person who would commit suicide just like that?

Edward calmed down and felt it carefully. Apart from his body becoming smaller, nothing else seemed to be affected. Both the sequence and magic were still at the previous level and were not weakened by the shrinkage.

Making the body smaller can be easily solved through transformation, so it's not a big problem.

So, this "resurrection" was a complete success?

Thinking of this, Edward tapped his chest lightly, and his body shape and clothes changed accordingly. In a few seconds, he turned into Klein Sparrow again.

Seeing the disappointment on Bernadette's face, he walked up to her and tapped her on the head unhappily: "Why are you disappointed? How come the image of me in your mind is just that of a child?"

"ah?"

She rubbed the place where she was hit, a little confused: How did Mr. Sparrow know that he looked like that in my imagination?

Oh, what a pity, if only he could stay like that forever!

"Mr. Sparrow, why did you turn into a child just now? Is it because of the need to do something?"

"This matter... is very complicated." Edward scratched his head, "Just think of it as if I was cursed."

"curse?"

The little girl opened her eyes wide, "Who did it?"

"Some nasty creature who does not want to reveal her name and is nicknamed 'The Mysterious Queen'."

"???"

Bernadette tilted her head in confusion. This nickname...seems a little familiar?

Just as he was about to think carefully, he suddenly saw Edward's movements twisting and turning, which looked very funny and weird: "What's wrong with you?"

"I don't know, I just feel uncomfortable all over."

Edward tried to walk a few more steps, and the uncomfortable feeling became stronger. It seemed that he was not used to his transformed body. Both his body and mind were restrained by some invisible constraints, and he wanted to break free uncontrollably.

Moreover, as time goes by, this feeling of awkwardness and restraint becomes more and more intense.

Inexplicably, Edward felt a nameless anger rising in his heart. Aren't you forcing me to cancel my transformation and become a child again?

I won't!

Isn't this the influence that Bernadette imagined me to have? I am just not what you wish!
