Russell understood, and blinked slightly. {What? You don’t know yet|.Read.COM, read the chapter with no mistakes|Hurry up and google it}
The existence of two souls in one body is actually not uncommon in this world.
How should I put it... maybe because the world is coming to an end, fertility has become a very big problem.
Even at this stage, women who can give birth to children healthily have basically lived in major affiliated towns since they were young, and can at least eat black taro.
But their bodies are basically unable to provide nutrition for twins or even multiple fetuses.
But if the occurrence of multiple births is extremely rare, twin births are not too rare.
But once twins are pregnant, even noble women... it will be difficult for them to keep the two children.
Moreover, not all families can provide pregnant women with enough food and nutrients to live a normal life.
The most troublesome thing is that children with better mage qualifications have higher demands on the mother's body... This is not just something that can be satisfied with enough food and drink.
That is a very huge consumption... consumption that many small nobles and even small mages cannot afford.
But who would be willing to give up such a precious child?
Finally, the simplest method emerged: turning a weaker child into the nutrition of a strong one.
Perhaps this approach is too... insidious, so the child who absorbed his siblings before he was born has a 30% chance of becoming one body with two souls.
Moreover, even those children who have not become one body and two souls seem to be born with no sense of security, and they do not have much sincerity towards their parents or family... They probably understood it when they were still in the embryo.
, if you are not strong enough, you will be the one who is sacrificed.
Therefore, throughout their lives, they will only pursue great strength crazily.
But for his family, what they want is for him to become strong.
As long as they can become high-level mages, no, in fact, as long as they become mid-level mages, their existence will be the family's greatest protection.
Even though everyone knows that they don't love their family, no one can be sure that if they destroy his family, they will not be retaliated against.
They themselves dare not guarantee this... After all, it is an insult to a mage. They will not be sad for the death of their family members, but they will be angry because they feel provoked by others.
However, Dreyfus was a little more miserable than those people.
Two souls in one body, in fact, one is strong and the other is weak.
Even if that unlucky and weak soul squeezes into another body, it has become a part of the other person.
It takes a long period of deep sleep to have the possibility of waking up.
If the main soul is not awake before he becomes an intermediate mage, then he has no way to survive.
The biggest revenge for this weak soul is actually to make this brother and sister who could soar into the sky have been wandering around as a low-level mage when they were young.
Time is the most stringent barrier. If you cannot walk to high places when you are strong, how many people who are getting older can still maintain that kind of ambition?
Especially, as the age increases, the possibility of the other soul awakening becomes greater... Two souls in one body are naturally enemies.
There was an undying hatred between them from the very beginning.
Once another soul awakens, the mage's life will enter a countdown... The other party will never give up the opportunity to become the owner of this body.
And every fight between them hurts their own souls.
Although their souls are strong because of the existence of two wills, after all, there is only one soul. Even if it is heavier than other people's souls, it is still the same.
Russell hesitated for a few seconds... He found that his teacher didn't seem to know much about these things.
Rather, the teacher should have received Gilbert's memory.
That archmage is famous for only learning the most basic aristocratic knowledge in addition to mage common sense.
He would never look at such a hidden and terrible secret.
Gilbert is a true mage and has always disdained the things of the nobility, and the Heinalson family does not do such rubbish.
There is definitely no information related to this in Gilbert's memory... As for the books in the Magic Tower, they basically don't record such disgusting and useless things.
Russell, on the other hand, did not think that he could go so far on the mage path at the beginning, so even though he did not give up on the mage path, he still made two preparations.
He was a little hesitant.
Of course, it's not because he wants to hide any secrets from his teacher.
However, Russell didn't think his teacher would be willing to hear such a thing.
He had long discovered that Teacher Gilbert was a person who respected life very much.
That's why the teacher was so surprised by the existence of two souls in one body... In the other person's world, this kind of thing probably wouldn't happen so easily.
But in this world, which small town doesn’t have this?
Nobles have always been cruel when pursuing their own interests.
Russell sighed.
Normally, Drifos can only eliminate this flaw and get on the right track when he reaches the level of an intermediate mage... But in this world, it is very difficult for Drifos, who has a flaw, to reach the middle level.
He knew that his information might not be of much significance to the teacher's judgment, but he knew better that he could not hide the information related to Dreyfus just because he 'felt it'.
"Teacher..." Russell said hesitantly.
"What? You want to say it?" Hilbert couldn't detect the hesitation of his little apprentice.
"Drifus's nature is not a strange thing. They should have known from the beginning that this child would be cold and unfeeling." Russell clenched his fist and slowly told everything he knew.
come out.
Hill is indeed disgusted with this kind of thing.
But he also understands that when something is proposed in the name of sacrifice and salvation, and then becomes a routine occurrence, it is not something that outsiders can easily interfere with.
At least the world recognized their behavior... although it also punished them, it did not prohibit their behavior.
Something that allowed the people at the Defense Tower to take advantage of it without even thinking would definitely not happen in the following years.
They are already accustomed to this kind of thing, so they can use it so easily.
Otherwise, the followers of Lansendre would not easily agree to this behavior.
After all, the Lord of the Dawn is neutral and good, and he will not easily deny the rules of behavior in other worlds.
That's why his followers are willing to use Drifos.
And simply chose the kinder soul.
In other words, because he is a victim, that half of his soul can be saved.
Once he devoured Drifos and became a new person, everything in the past would naturally disappear with the disappearance of Drifos.
All in all, none of this has anything to do with him.
As a beloved of the God of Dawn, from beginning to end, he chose to talk to the soul that could be saved.
Tsk~
This looks like the standard Chosen Lord of the Dawn.
It may seem like he is acting recklessly, but in fact he is acting according to his own set of logic.
The most important thing for believers in the Lord of the Dawn is to convince themselves.
As long as they believe that what they do does not violate Lansendre's will, then they can do anything.
Moreover, Hill believed that he had just watched this incident with a cold eye from beginning to end. No matter who proposed and implemented this plan in the defense tower, he must not have said a word.
Looking at Dreyfus again, Hilbert said softly: "I'll probably never see him again.
I won’t argue with you about the past.”
Russell couldn't help but glance at the giant screen...Dreyfus's face was still so ugly, but the disgust in his heart had disappeared a lot.
Probably after seeing his unwilling struggle, but in the end it was all meaningless?
Russell asked softly: "At that time, will this man who made great contributions to the defense tower find his family again, and even his appearance will change..."
Since the powerful god can restore the victim's appearance, he can naturally return 'Drifus' to his original appearance.
Hill nodded.
Russell was a little confused... Of course he understood that this result was a great victory for the defense tower.
But he was still reluctant to accept that even the birth of Drifos was a joke.
What he probably wants to see more is a true hero, rather than a poor guy who was schemed from beginning to end until nothing is left.
Hilbert shook his head: "You don't have to think too much.
This world, no, the entire multiverse, is the same, each has its own differences, and each has its own incomprehensibility.
Choose to interact with people who have the same bottom line as your own and similar positions. Respect the behavior of those people who, although they are very different from you, will not touch your bottom line... You don’t have to understand it, but don’t interfere.
Ha~
In all the situations in life, who is in whom’s trap? Who is in whom’s trouble?
So, Russell, you have to remember that the bottom line in life is very important.
The kind of you I like is the one who has a very high bottom line and wants to be a good person.
If one day... you forget who you are now... I won't do anything more, but I will never see you again.
Do you understand?"
As for whether Russell will touch his bottom line one day, Hill doesn't know.
But he still didn't want to think about this kind of problem before it happened... Hill would generally not do such things as assuming that a person would become a scumbag.
"I will not become like that." Russell's tone was very firm, "I will never go in the opposite direction from my teacher.
Don’t worry, teacher, I will remind myself all the time.”
Russell knew very well that although their teacher had very high demands on them, he never asked them to sacrifice themselves for others.
Just don't take the initiative to hurt or insult others... Russell will never violate such a simple constraint.
