Ragnarok——

The original name of the doomsday battle in Norse mythology is "Ragnarkr" or "Ragnarkkr", which means "the end of the gods".

It was a doomsday composed of a series of huge disasters, causing countless natural catastrophes, causing the demise of countless gods and races, and finally the whole world sank under the water... Such a famous ending, even the gods are not perfect, nor are they eternal, the final A story with a particularly tragic ending.

It is a household name and quite famous.

But even ordinary people would probably not misunderstand it and think that this is a legend belonging to Greek mythology.

So as magicians who have studied all kinds of mysteries and myths very deeply, and even spent their whole lives on these things, pursuing them with a mentality of seeking the truth, how could they make such a low-level mistake? Gu Mo was very interested in this and wanted to see what it was like.

"this……"

Frowning slightly, Erica seemed to be a little confused: "This statement has been circulated a long time ago, but the specific origin is unknown, and I don't know when it spread. I have also said this before. I had doubts, but I didn’t get an accurate answer.”

"Oh, that means you don't know either."

Gu Mo nodded, understanding this.

"Hey, what's that look in your eyes?"

Erica was immediately a little angry. As an overly proud girl, she was currently working hard to prove herself and eager to make some achievements, but she was repeatedly frustrated, so her psychology inevitably became sensitive. Although the other party just said this casually, it still made her feel that her professionalism was being questioned.

"You have to understand one thing, myths cannot prove anything! Otherwise, there would be no disobedient gods. They hate this kind of concept being imposed on themselves, and they do not obey myths. Only by making arrangements can you become a god of disobedience!"

The girl who had been holding her breath since daytime couldn't help gritting her teeth, and her voice couldn't help but raise the decibel level: "The existence of gods precedes myths. In ancient times, even among human beings, These great beings already existed before they were created.”

"Human beings have only discovered their traces in the endless vast sky and land. This is often when they show their power... The essence of myths is just a way for humans to prevent the powerful and mighty gods. Power, and the ritual of output.”

"While the gods obtain names and myths, they cannot do anything beyond their reach. Whether they are benefiting or retaliating against humans, they will not go beyond the scope of their responsibilities. But this is not what actually happened. It’s just a legend passed down orally from later generations.”

After saying this in one breath, she paused, adjusted her breathing rhythm, and continued angrily: "In that case, you can understand."

Myths cannot be relied upon.

Because that may not be what really happened, it might just be a ritual——

It is not history, the fixed past, nor is it a record of what happened in the past. It is very likely that it is simply a "story" in which the gods play specific roles and delineate the scope of their responsibilities.

It can be said that this is a role-playing ceremony. In this ceremony, humans and gods play their assigned roles, and at the same time complete an "exchange of interests" in a certain sense...

If this situation can continue, then the world of humans and the world of gods will be in a balanced and stable state. The gods will maintain the roles and characters they are supposed to play in their respective myths, allowing the world to run normally.

But not all gods will abide by the rules and choose to unconditionally obey their assigned mythological roles. There are always some exceptions. For example, the gods are tired of this ritual that lasts too long, and then choose to withdraw from the torrent of myths. Examples of breaking free, such things do exist.

——These rebellious gods who have broken free from myths are also the gods of disobedience. They spurn myths and are unwilling to be bound and constrained by these things...

——This is also the most troublesome threat in the magic world. Just passing through this world will have a huge impact, and the god of disaster creates his own posture according to his own preferences.

"Although Ragnarok is indeed a concept derived from Nordic mythology, there are many aspects of the myths that are interoperable. When human culture changes, the myths will also change. Sometimes those changes will cause the gods to connect with each other. My name also changed."

Erica said with a hum, and at the same time she was sorting out her thoughts with the help of her own explanation, with a thoughtful expression on her face:

"You should also know that there are many stories with similar outlines around the world, such as Ienagi who came to the Underworld to welcome his dead wife Ienami, and another who went to the underworld to rescue his deceased wife. The legend of Orpheus, similar stories like these, are not many at all, right?"

Stories with the same origin, after changing the details, become similar legends spread among different cultures and regions.

This phenomenon is often caused by the introduction of majestic culture and the migration of ethnic groups over many years, and it is understandable.

Of course, in addition to direct borrowing, there are also other reasons, such as competition or suppression of ideology, so we make up corresponding myths and use the gods of our own region to eliminate them as evil gods, great demons, etc. There are many examples of monsters as gods from other regions.

As Erica comes from a famous magic family, she is no stranger to these things. Although she is still very young, standing on the shoulders of those sages and sages, she can understand the changes in the world of gods from a perspective of extraordinary evolution. and mystery.

"Oh, I see……"

Gu Mo nodded and clapped his hands as if to applaud her.

only--

"You...you don't believe what I said?" The girl with blond hair and red skirt looked at him angrily, feeling that her mood suddenly turned dark.

"No, I didn't say I didn't believe it..." Gu Mo blinked and frowned.

"Then why do you have such an expression?" Erica glared at him with an annoyed expression. This person was a little too calm! It was completely unlike how an ordinary person would react when hearing such a secret for the first time. He was neither surprised nor doubtful, just calm.

So much so that such a calm and calm compliment also has a hint of perfunctory meaning.

No wonder Erica was a little angry. She told him a lot of secrets in one breath that ordinary people had no access to. But in her eyes, the other party was expressionless and didn't react at all. Wait. After I finished speaking, I reluctantly clapped my hands to show some respect...

It was as if he was watching her suffer from the second grade disease and was worried that she would be embarrassed if he didn't express anything, so he reluctantly gave a little reaction.

It’s really a little bit of a reaction.

That's basically it.

"Is there anything wrong with my expression? There's no law against showing such an expression, right?" Gu Mo didn't agree with this and shook his head, "Besides... I didn't say I didn't believe you!"

The girl with blond hair and red skirt was immediately suffocated. It seemed that she was right, but she always felt that there was something wrong.

"Speaking of it, you seem to be very irritable. Are you anxious and angry? Or Erica, you are just like this..." Gu Mo glanced at Erica and said casually.

"..."

"..."

There was another moment of silence.

The girl with blond hair and red skirt sat back silently. She took a deep breath and looked carefully, and found that her emotions were indeed not quite right.

It seems that I am indeed a little irritable. If this person hadn't pointed it out, I would still be unaware...

——Maybe it’s because I’m under too much pressure.

She quickly figured out the reason and found a reason for her words and deeds. The girl let out a long sigh, with a rare expression of sadness on her face. She tried hard to maintain the habitual arrogant smile on her face, but failed. , leaving only a trace of bitterness.

In the past, she had no experience of encountering God, so she pursued it very persistently.

This is merit, it is also glory, it is a magnificent martial arts that can truly be boasted, and it is also the most dazzling medal for a knight... or so she thinks.

However, reality is often cruel and only proves how ridiculous young people's naivety is. Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. This can be a compliment or a derogation. Perhaps the younger generation often cannot understand the thoughts of the older generation until they face it in person.

No matter how my uncle tried to persuade her at the time, I hope Erica won't be anxious. She is still young and everything can be done slowly. There is no need to be so radical...

Erica couldn't listen either. Instead, she felt that her uncle was very conservative and didn't believe in her.

But yes, she became famous at a young age and was very energetic. As a talented girl who became a great knight at the age of fifteen or sixteen, her self-confidence was of course at its peak. If they are not confident enough and arrogant enough, then they are still young people... The older generation are too conservative. If they are not good enough, they are not good enough. It is not necessarily true if they are themselves.

Probably...that's what I think.

Erica is naturally no exception. The first half of her life went too smoothly, and it has always been like this.

until today--

Recalling the feeling and oppression of the super-giant beast, Erica couldn't help rubbing her eyebrows, feeling anxious and annoyed.

"I may be... a little shaken."

A muttering voice came out of her mouth, and the girl sat on the sofa and muttered to herself.

Gu Mo, who was opposite him, raised his eyebrows slightly. Was this talented girl shocked? From just now, it seemed a little strange. When explaining to himself, he used that decisive tone to explain the existence of the God-Slayer, and said that he also wanted to become someone like the King of Swords...

Normally, although she is very proud, she should be modest about this matter, even when faced with her uncle's questions.

But now, facing a person I have only known for a long time, I am saying these words...

Gu Mo checked silently and made sure that his psychic power interference had indeed been adjusted and was not maintained at any strange mental frequency...
