Chapter 2056: In the beginning, human nature is inherently evil, and those who are good are hypocritical.
Time passed day by day, and Boom had completely lost the sense of time. During this period of time, he had been living in a state of intoxication, without any practice, nor with any intention of returning to the present world.
"Speaking of which, you ancient ferocious beasts are actually quite boring. You were born to stand at the top of the pyramid, but you choose to stay on your own laurels all your life and guard your territory."
"Since you have no intention of protecting this world, why are you staying here? Is it because you are afraid of starting a journey through the planes, or do you simply not have the strength?"
"I used to blindly believe in the judgment of the strong, because the reason why the strong are called strong naturally has a reason for their success."
"But after I myself was called a strong person by the world, I felt that there were differences between people who had also reached the top. At least many of the famous strong people were not that glamorous."
"Actually, for me, it doesn't matter whether I can become stronger or not. What's important is not to drag down my companions, and not to become a burden as much as possible."
I saw Boom chewing the charcoal-grilled squid tentacles and saying softly. At this moment, he didn't have the majesty of a great mage. Except for the fact that his black robe was still clean and tidy, he was lying lazily on the grass and staring at
Twelve Lords of Warcraft floating in mid-air.
The chanting of space spells sounded leisurely, and the mimetic array - the Purgatory Spear condensed and formed out of thin air. Immediately after a scream, the illusion of an ancient ferocious beast also shattered.
But in the next second, it condensed out again, looking unscathed. This is also the main reason why Boom seems so lazy now. After all, even if he tries his best, he can't destroy the ancient being in mid-air.
Phantom of the beast.
People are like this, even if they are facing people no matter how close they are, they will still keep some little secrets. Boom will only say these words when he is alone, but he will never let the second person know.
Boom is not a child of an aristocratic family, nor is he an academic magician. Since he was a child, he has been wandering the streets and alleys of the King of Ogu alone. It seems that apart from Rikka, who is like a follower, he has never really owned anything.
.
Scenes of past events appeared in his mind, but Boom sighed, not wanting to worry about those things anymore.
"I am no longer the young boy I once was. Let alone let me recall the past many years ago again. Even if I experience it again, so what?"
"An illusion is an illusion. Unless I can break through my psychological defenses, it will be the same as an opera, and I am just a spectator."
"You don't think that after I step into the peak realm, I will think highly of myself like most of the peak experts? I am who I am, and I will always be the orphan of the king. I will bend down because of a copper coin, and I will be humbled by a copper coin.
A half-piece of black bread will do whatever it takes to get angry at someone else's glance."
"I'm not a beast. Nobles yearn for elegance and dignity, and professionals pursue power and wealth. Of course I also have my own pursuits. I pursue doing whatever I want and not being disturbed by anyone."
"As I am now, I can immediately return to the real world and reunite with my companions. I can also be so willful that I always stay in the spiritual space, no matter how much time I waste, no one dares to accuse me."
"Beasts, ordinary people, professionals, ancient ferocious beasts. In my opinion, every living thing has preferences, or has its own characteristics. But no matter what, everything in the world cannot escape birth, aging, illness and death, and they are all slaves of desire.
”
"There are no good people, but they are all sanctimonious hypocrites. I ask myself that I am not a good person. Compared with the positive images in books, I prefer the unrestrained life."
"The sky is big and the earth is big, but wherever my strength reaches, why should I be afraid of anyone? What's more, I am already like this, despicable and despicable, even if I am now a top expert."
I saw Boom rolling the charcoal-grilled squid tentacles into a lump with an iron skewer, and then chewing them non-stop. As for the squid body, it disappeared little by little from both sides towards the axis of symmetry. This is Boom's personal habit.
, except for Rikka, not even the companions knew about it.
You must know that Boom was once a poor man, and most of the food of the poor pays more attention to quantity than quality. Those few copper coins and a bunch of charcoal-grilled squid are equivalent to garbage in the eyes of the nobles, but in the eyes of the poor, they are
A very sumptuous dinner.
Half a piece of brown bread with chargrilled squid covered in sauce sandwiched inside. After all, the sauce is free, and the squid itself is just an add-on.
There was a time when Boom would get bruises and bruises from a string of mud-covered charcoal-grilled squid, and even get beaten to a bloody head with other orphans.
Therefore, even now, those expensive snow crabs and rare seed-bearing tree frogs cannot really satisfy Boom.
In other words, Boom prefers to eat black bread until he is full and stew until he vomits. Things that were once out of reach for him are now things that he yearns for.
After coming into contact with his mentor Christine, Boom also tried to change himself, at least hoping to become more elegant. However, after decades of practice, he felt that he simply could not accept that kind of aristocratic etiquette.
Your original appearance is the most real.
The companions didn't think anything of this. On the contrary, they were happy that Boom had not forgotten his original intention. However, the world seemed to find an angle and secretly laughed at Boom's despicable behavior.
In addition, although he is the "leader", his strength is not at the top. In this case, Boom is the fatal flaw of Flowing Light City, at least for some monarchs.
But Boom seemed unmoved by those rumors. No matter how many creatures Rikka killed because of this, he never paid attention to them.
Whatever he looks like, he should be in such a state. Boom feels that the world says that he is very real, but at the same time, he will not pity the life and death of those ants.
In Boom's philosophy, profit-seeking is the best quality, compared to being sanctimonious; only greed can have a beginning and an end, compared to looking forward and backward.
If you have the ability, you should have more things, whether it is gold coins or dragon crystals. If you have the ability, you should have more resources, whether it is rare ores or fertile territory.
Be wary of all outsiders, and only focus on the interests of yourself and your companions. This kind of Boom is the most real, and is the biggest reliance on him as a "guide" to get to where he is today.
He admired the arrogance of his mentor Christine, but he did not agree with her that she was always carefree and aloof from everything.
He appreciates Hastur's dedication to his duties, but he doesn't agree with Hastur's always being withdrawn and stubborn, thinking that everything can be solved by himself.
He admired Alberto's optimism and cheerfulness, but did not agree with his exaggerated performance and carefully disguised himself at all times.
He admired Perseus' honesty and sincerity, but did not agree with his dullness and die-hard loyalty. He stood up for him at all times regardless of his own safety.
He admired Gloria's wisdom and courage, but did not agree with her insistence on her own way, and seemed out of place at all times.
He appreciates Rikka's cheerful personality, but he doesn't agree with her carefree appearance, which exposes countless flaws at any time for the enemy to take whatever they want.
He also appreciates his original intention, which is his truest appearance. However, he does not agree with himself that he is always doing nothing. That is why he works hard day and night just to follow in the footsteps of his companions.
