"I don't know Sherlock Holmes, but Stephen Strange is a very talented person. Maybe his magical talent is not as good as yours, but he has a vision that ordinary people cannot have. This vision is
Something that neither you nor I have." The Supreme Mage said, "I have arranged his education methods, and he will eventually become a qualified Supreme Mage."
"Teacher, haven't you told others about your plan?" Salomon asked, "They don't know what the Holy Spirit means, and they don't know how much progress the materialization of the soul is. But as long as they are human, they will
Recognize physiological activity as life, and once the physiological activity stops, it means death, and they will feel sad when you leave."
"This is inevitable. I can no longer bear the responsibility. The world needs progress, and I am only a cornerstone of progress. If my death can allow Strange to become a qualified Supreme Mage, I am willing to do so.
But you know there's a difference between the death of the body and the death of the soul, right?"
When His Holiness talked about her own death, there was no hesitation in her expression. Instead, she was as relaxed as if she was talking about what to eat for dinner tonight. His Holiness said with a sense of expectation that the prank was about to succeed, “I’m looking forward to it,
How happy he will be when I appear in front of Strange in the future, and he will definitely not be angry because I cheated him with death."
"If he had known what the Holy Spirit was by then, the touching scene you expected would not have happened." Salomon said helplessly. He did not expect that the Venerable would actually like to joke so much. "But I do think that at that time,
Strange may not have access to this knowledge, and he will think that you are a Halloween ghost, and then cast a spell to expel you just like the routine casting of spells to clear out ghosts every Halloween."
"A bet on an apple pie?"
"If you can still eat at that time, I agree."
"Until now, I discovered a problem." The Supreme Mage talked about another topic, "Almost everyone among Kama Taj has been in human society, even the children of the Mystic Mage family.
They grow up in the society of ordinary people, and finally choose whether to become a member of the mystics. Only you, Salomon, have received the education of me, an old guy, every day since you were born. Apart from me, there are
Athena is a person who has lived for a long time.
I now feel that I am too advanced in educating you. Of course, this does not refer to magic education, but education in outlook on life. The objections of Mordo and Cassilios are indeed reasonable, and you cannot bear it at this time.
Too heavy an emotional burden.
People in the secular world are often polluted by various thoughts. This is not because of the extra-dimensional bacteria parasitic on the soul, but because most ordinary people have been receiving all kinds of information since birth. From school
, from parents, from friends, even from social media, all kinds of desires are like torches that ignite a person, allowing him to emit the light and heat he deserves, but what follows is all kinds of desires and wealth.
, glory, beauty, status, only these as firewood can keep a person burning, and this has been the case since ancient times.
It is precisely because of this that I ask the apprentices to seek peace in their souls. But the problem is that your soul has been extremely peaceful from the beginning. When you were a child, I thought you had autism. I can't see that you
What you desire, your only desire is to explore magic, but this is more of curiosity than desire - you don't even know how to deal with your desires. You have a lot of money in your hands, but I don't
Seeing how much you have spent outside of work, buying a second-hand bicycle is not a big expense, going out to a restaurant with Wang is not a big expense, and the snacks in the refrigerator are not a big expense either.
I thought that bringing you into contact with Bayonetta would make you better. She is so charming, but I can't see any attachment to her in your eyes. I don't think it's because she is five hundred years older than you.
I also know that your life will last longer than this time. Tell me, Salomon, are you afraid of death because you care about this world?"
"I..." Salomon was speechless. He didn't know what to answer, because inexplicably, he felt that he was not too afraid of death, but felt that it was a peaceful state. If not,
He will not talk about death with the Supreme Mage. After all, there is a gap in age and experience between the two. Salomon does not rule out that these concepts are instilled in him by the memories in the stigmata. However, the authorities are obsessed with it, and he always thinks that it is him.
My own opinion.
Seeing that Salomon was unable to answer, the Supreme Mage continued.
"All your actions are within the rules. I have never seen you do anything outside the rules. You put your feelings below this. This is a good thing and a bad thing, because there is no one in the world.
This rule is flawless, even if it is Kamal Taj's, it is the same as what I have formulated. You can sacrifice others and yourself to accomplish something without hesitation, but you cannot judge whether it is good or bad, or whether it is good or bad.
Right or wrong. This is where you can't compare to Strange. He has the determination to break the rules and do the right thing.
You don't have to learn from him, and you can't learn from him. Your sympathy for the Corinthians and Theresa is one of the few times you show your emotions. This is good, because it shows me that you are not completely devoid of human emotions.
Although I am very satisfied that you can abide by the rules I set, I don't want your soul to age like mine when you are young. Young people should enjoy flowers and wine. Salomon, where have you put yourself?
?A mystic, or a young man?"
"But I think it's pretty good now." Salomon frowned and said, "I don't even feel any desire other than exploring magic. The corresponding physiological stimulation is just because my body is growing. I don't need a luxury car and a car.
Fine wine doesn’t require wealth or status, I just find those things annoying.”
The Supreme Master was silent, weighing the contradictory expectations in his heart, but in the end, the softer side prevailed, but this was temporary. The Supreme Master said, "This is your problem, my dear disciple, I hope
You are a human being, not a container of stigmata. You need a variety of human emotions and have your own desires, no matter what they are. Not like me. In this case, you will be in too much pain."
"I don't feel pain at all, teacher. At most, I feel a little uncomfortable when I make a choice." Salomon said, "If you think there is a problem with my relationship with Bayonetta, it's because I think our time is still very long.
Sir, don’t be too anxious.”
"That's the problem, Salomon, you have no awareness of yourself." The Supreme Mage sighed, "I think, in addition to learning magic at Kamathaj and art at Athena, you also need a normal life.
, you shouldn’t go to school just for exams, how many classmates do you know? Just in time, Bayonetta and Joan of Arc need a rest, and you can also enjoy a normal life for a period of time, away from fighting and killing, maybe
Young and beautiful girls can make you change your mind."
"You are forcing me to integrate into ordinary society, teacher." Salomon said, "You also know that this will not change anything."
"Who knows?" said His Holiness, "but for now it seems that Casilios is more than happy to send you to school."
Yes, the one who was most positive about Salomon going to school among ordinary people was Casilios. When Salomon saw him again, he could hardly recognize the man in front of him. He was wearing a
The ironed brown suit, the short-cropped hair was neatly styled, the leather shoes were polished, and the original look of bitterness and hatred was completely gone.
"I have been waiting for this day for a long time." Casilios smiled while folding a handkerchief and stuffing it into his left breast pocket. The white handkerchief revealed a perfect triangle. Moduo stood beside him.
Very satisfied. He and Casilios had long believed that His Holiness was too advanced in educating Salomon, and it was time for Salomon to experience a normal life. Before joining Karma Taj, Mordo was a
A nobleman, Casilios is an ordinary person who gets married and has children. They understand how important a normal life is to a person. Being immersed in the weird magical world all day long is not good for a young man.
"Although you passed the CE exam (the British eighth-grade entrance exam), you have never gone to class. You are fourteen years old, but you have never gone to the GCSE course level." Casilios said,
"I also have a car, which His Holiness approved for me to buy, and it has a British license plate. Don't worry, I have stopped drinking since I came to Kamal Taj."
"I won't go to those full-time private schools. Just give up." Salomon stared and said, "Don't even think about it."
————————————————
"Okay, Mr. Casilios, as Salomon's guardian, you should understand that this is inappropriate." There are two chairs in front of the school desk, and Casilios and Salomon are sitting there.
Sitting quietly, with expressionless faces, they accepted the questioning from the principal, Mrs. Sewell.
"Our school has no dress code. Wearing a ring is also a private matter, but imprinting the ring on someone else's face is another matter." Mrs. Sewell said very forcefully, slamming the wooden table with her hand.
At this time, the holy cloth worn by Salomon has turned into an ordinary dark coat. This is the effect of magic, which temporarily deforms the clothes, but the three Weishan Emperor rings and Belial's demon summoning ring
It's something that cannot be hidden.
Everything started off very well. When Salomon, who had not appeared for a long time, appeared in school for the first time, Mrs. Sewell was filled with joy because there were many courses that could not be replaced by home education, even if Salomon had excellent grades.
The same is true. But the problem is that human beings are group creatures, and many people will show discomfort when faced with sudden outsiders.
Salomon's appearance is somewhat different from that of the British Saxons, but his good looks still make him popular with most girls. Although Salomon greeted them very politely and then stopped communicating, this behavior caused
The hostility of some adolescent boys in the class.
However, Salomon was not interested in this kind of childish jealousy, but they still wanted to teach Salomon a lesson while he was going to the toilet. So naturally, Salomon stuffed their heads into the toilet, a little bit.
Magic is useless. These guys usually like to bully their classmates and attract the attention of girls by relying on their tallness (for people of the same age). This is a behavior unique to most adolescent males. In Europe and the United States, where precocious puberty is common,
country, this behavior has evolved into ubiquitous school bullying.
"I have never seen you so excited when they bullied other students, Mrs. Sewell." Salomon said impatiently, "I acted very carefully. They didn't have any broken bones, and they didn't even need to go to the infirmary. At most, they didn't have to go to the infirmary.
It only hurts for a few days. This is a lesson to them."
"I fully agree with the self-defense exercised by my ward." Casilios stood up, put his hands on the table, and leaned forward. The pressure brought by his expressionless face made Mrs. Sewell
I couldn't help but distance myself, "I think you should teach those students who don't like to follow the rules, not my wards. There are still such things happening under your supervision, I think I can find out
There are many places to make complaints to human rights organizations in London, and I can always find a few."
"I..." Mrs. Sewell was speechless.
"I think it's time for us to go." Casilios buttoned the second button of his suit again, "Tomorrow, I will send Salomon to school on time."
It wasn't until they walked out of the school that Casilios couldn't maintain his stern expression and burst into laughter.
"Boy." Casilios stretched out his arm and hung it around Salomon's neck. "If you didn't fight, you wouldn't have gone to school. But I have to say that you did a good job. You should teach those people a lesson."
Little bastard, you should find a female classmate next and fall in love, then your life will be complete."
"You obviously know that I'm not interested in that thing." Salomon said helplessly, "Look, the life of ordinary people is incompatible with me, why do you still send me to school?"
"His Holiness thinks so, so we do it, no matter why." Casilios said, "I saw the face of the guy named Yuli. Your uppercut made it very beautiful. Now, you are already a
You're a man now, do you want some beer? Tell me how you fought, it must be a wonderful story."
"Don't tell anyone else."
"If I tell anyone that I made you drink, the police will find me." Casilios raised his fist and said, "It's a deal."
