The days when I helped the protagonist come to power [System]

Through the conversation with Altos, Erxi finally understood the current situation roughly.

Although everything within reach is lifeless gray ruins, and even the sky is fragmented and riddled with holes, but this was not what it used to be—in the past, this was a beautiful and lively world, There is a clear blue sky, the sun that rises and sets in the morning and evening, there are mountains that are layer upon layer, there is a rushing river, and there are many, many people.

"You used to be our king, and also the master of this world." Altos said, "But according to the goddess, you are the master of this world, you can change the rules and order of this world at will, and your ability is comparable to half God, as long as you take time and find a suitable opportunity, you can be promoted to the main god and enter the domain and world where the goddess is."

"Goddess?" Erxi asked curiously, "Who is she?"

"She is the original creator of this world, we are all her people, and she chose you to rule this world."

"Where is she now?" Although she still couldn't think of anything, when it came to this "Goddess", Erxi felt a sense of intimacy and familiarity spontaneously, "Can I see her?"

Altus shook his head regretfully: "As a priest, I can indeed try to make the projection of the goddess descend, but that requires specific tokens and rituals. Now this place is too barren, and I don't have the conditions to communicate with her at all."

Erxi looked at the desolate and dead ruins around him, and frowned slightly: "How did this place become like this?"

"I don't know the specific situation." Altos' voice was a little uncertain, and his eyes were full of worry.

"Although I am the chief priest, compared to you and the goddess, my status is still too humble, and I have no right to participate in the dialogue between you. All I know is that you and the goddess seem to have been discussing to do something very important. It is an important matter, it is related to the fate of this world, but unfortunately, due to the malicious intervention of external forces, this matter failed in the end, and it also caused very serious consequences.”

"Serious consequences..." Erxi looked up at the "sky" that was shattered into pieces, feeling something in his heart, "Is our world... destroyed?"

"Not only that." The boy in white shook his head, "If it's just the destruction of the world, as long as you and Lady Goddess are still around, it's not impossible to rebuild this world and make it come alive again."

He sighed suddenly, and took a deep look at Ersie.

"The really serious consequence is that the Lady Goddess seems to be seriously injured and can no longer protect the world she created; and you have also been dragged into another world, and those forces use the power of that world to imprison you in the cage of reincarnation, preventing You come back again."

"Those forces?" Erxi frowned, "What kind of forces?"

"This is a conflict and struggle that belongs to the world where the goddess lives. I don't know the details. I only know that they have bad intentions." Altos hesitated, "But if you can restore your memory, you might know who they are Yes, the goddess and you always talk about everything."

Ersey tried hard to remember, but his mind was still blank.He shook his head helplessly and could only continue to ask questions.

"The 'world' that I was dragged into that you mentioned just now, which world is it? Was it also created by the goddess?"

The boy immediately showed a somewhat complicated expression. He looked at Erxi for a while before asking cautiously.

"Your Majesty, do you really have no impression of the things in that world?"

Ersie shook her head silently.

"Actually, I don't know whose world it is, and what it has to do with our side." Altos said, "But judging from the current situation, part of our world has merged with that side. Some people who originally belonged to our world have their identities and memories re-arranged there. Like you, they continue to repeat similar lives in reincarnation. Until they are completely assimilated by that world, they have no doubts about their own destiny. Doubt, is completely ignorant of the truth of the two worlds."

The other party's tone was as if he had experienced it himself, and Ersey couldn't help asking.

"Have you ever been to that world?"

"Yes, I used to be one of them." Altos nodded, "But maybe because of my special status, when our original world changed drastically, part of the power of the goddess was projected into the depths of my soul. So from the very beginning, I could vaguely feel that something was wrong in that world, I could even vaguely remember the existence of the Goddess, and there was always a force in my heart that pushed me to complete one thing."

"What's the matter?"

Erxi saw Altos looking up at him, with a bit of melancholy and sadness in those beautiful eyes, and he didn't speak for a long time.

"Is... related to me?" Ersie asked tentatively.

Altos nodded heavily.

"Yes." The young man said in a deep voice, "I want to rescue you from the cage of that world. This idea may have been passed on to me by the goddess, or it may be what I originally wanted to do. In that world, Until the last moment of my life, I was trying to accomplish this. Although I don’t know who set the rules, I knew in the dark: Only by completely erasing your traces from that world can you return to this world. world, and that way is... death."

Altus didn't go into details, but from the pained and tangled expression on the other side, Ursi had already understood the implied meaning of his last sentence.

——The so-called death probably means that Altos wants to kill him in that world with his own hands.

But Erxi didn't mind, and even felt a little bit distressed for this child - obviously he wanted to save him, but he had to do it by giving the other party death. For Altos, it was a test far more terrifying than death And torment it.

"Unfortunately, although I bear this mission in mind, I am still assimilated by that world." Altos' voice was extremely obscure, "I am in reincarnation without knowing it, and I think I have been working hard to do this I don’t know how many times I’ve failed, and how many times I’ve tried again.”

He always thought that his mission had just begun, and that everything was being completed step by step according to his plan, until he found the time fragment that recorded his past experiences, and realized that the so-called "this moment" had already been experienced countless times "Past".

He thought his journey had just begun, but in fact he had already repeated hundreds of reincarnations. He fell into the whirlpool unknowingly, how should he save another person who was caught in the whirlpool?

"But I'm back after all." Erxi gently rubbed the light blue hair of the other party, and comforted him softly, "You succeeded in the end."

Altus shook his head: "I am not the one who helped you back."

Ersie was slightly taken aback: "Who is that?"

The boy pondered for a while, as if he was not very sure.

"I have doubts about the candidate in my heart, but because I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I'm not sure if it's him." Altos said, "But I'm sure he is not from our world, because I have never seen him. Perhaps the Lady Goddess realized that I was unable to complete the mission, so she called in another helper—that person has the mark left by the Lady Goddess."

"Have you had contact with that person?"

Altos nodded: "I met him in this reincarnation in that world, but he was very cautious and didn't reveal anything to me, only telling me to come back here."

This question is also what Erxi wanted to ask from just now: "Other people are still trapped in that world, why can you come back here alone?"

The boy suddenly laughed.

He raised his head and stared at the king in front of him with a pious and respectful gaze.

"It was you who sent me back, my lord."

Ersie was astonished: "Can I do this?"

Altos nodded.

"How did I do it?" Ersie was very curious.

Altos hesitated for a moment, he didn't seem to want to talk about this topic.

"It was... sent back in a specific way." He said vaguely, "And this method only works for me, and I don't understand why."

"It's still optional?" Ersey murmured. "That's weird."

Altos smiled: "My lord, you don't have to be too impatient now. I think, after your memory about this world is restored, maybe we will know the answer."

***

Ersie settled down in this world.

Although everything was the words of the Altos family, Erxi felt that the other party should not have lied to him. He believed in this clear-eyed young man from the bottom of his heart.

And the fact is indeed the case, as Erxi's stay in this world increases, the memories that have been washed away are really coming back a little bit.

He gradually remembered his identity and his past.Although many of them are just fleeting fragments, they are like scattered puzzle pieces, filling his blank memory little by little.

It's a pity that he still can't clearly recall some very important memories, such as what happened in the world before it was destroyed, what kind of conversation he had with the goddess, and what they were going to do at that time. Ersey had a premonition—as long as he stayed here, one day, he would definitely remember everything.

In this ruined world, time flows very slowly, they don't need to eat, and they don't feel tired. Every day, Altos patiently tells what he wants to know about the past at the request of Erxi .On this day, Altos was describing in detail how they used to hold ceremonies to summon the Goddess, when Erxi suddenly interrupted him.

"Otos, I miss you."

A smile appeared in Erxi's eyes, and he looked at the boy in front of him gently.

"I remembered the way you were brought into the palace by the high priest...that was the first time we met in this world."

Altos opened his mouth in surprise, and soon a shy smile appeared on his face.

"It's an honor that you can still remember that time, Your Majesty."

"I also know why you are the only one who can be sent back by me." Erxi paused for a moment, and glanced at Altos calmly.

"Otos, why are you hiding your true identity?" He slightly accentuated his tone, "You are actually not an ordinary citizen of this world, but the orderer of this world—the orderer personally selected by me and the goddess. the son of."

Altos was stunned for a moment, and quickly knelt down on one knee: "Your Majesty, I didn't hide it on purpose, it's just...but I don't know how to explain it to you. After all, you can't remember anything before, and some things are difficult to use words. It’s hard to say clearly.”

Erxi wasn't really angry, but just remembered Altos's identity, which made him think of more things.

"You said that I was dragged into that world and suffered the pain of reincarnation...but our world has always been in reincarnation." Erxi looked at the broken sky in the distance and sighed, "Only a few People, such as me, such as you... only know the truth."

This cycle of reincarnation has always existed as long as the world was functioning normally.He didn't understand if every world needed to use reincarnation to keep the inner operation stable, but he always felt... the things he and the goddess had discussed, and even the things they had to do, seemed to be incompatible with the rules of this world. Reincarnation related.

Erxi pondered for a long time, and when he came back to his senses, he found Altos still kneeling respectfully on the ground. He was taken aback, and quickly bent over to pull him up from the ground.

"Altos, there are only two of us here, you don't have to be so reserved." Ursi said slightly reproachfully, "Don't call me the king anymore, I remember... I didn't like you to be so respectful before. I'm so humble, I almost got into an argument with you over this."

The smile on Altos' face deepened a little, and his eyes became softer.

"You really remembered a lot, Your Highness Ursi."

"But all I can remember right now are the things in this world." Ersie sighed suddenly, seeming a little distressed, "I still can't remember the experience of being dragged into that world...you can give Shall I tell you about the other world, Altos?"

The boy's expression stiffened.

"Your Highness Ersey," he said cautiously, "since you've come back, it's best not to ask about things over there."

"why?"

Altus didn't speak, but he seemed to be very embarrassed - he seemed really reluctant to bring up the matter over there.

"I'm just a little curious about what it's like for me to be there," Ersey explained.

"Actually, it's almost the same as now—although they have new identities and new memories, everyone's souls have never changed, and their personalities and appearances have not changed much. Others are like this, and so are you. Although those people obviously intend to Suppress your identity, but you are still considered superior there, this is due to the innate temperament and attributes in your soul, no one can deprive and change it."

"Am I the king over there too?" Erxi asked confused.

Altos shook his head: "The core of that world is another person."

"who is it?"

Altos frowned, cautiously not mentioning that person's name.

"I don't know much about that person, and I have almost never been in contact with him, but that world has been binding and imprisoning you. As the core of the world, that person is likely to be in the same group as those forces with malicious intentions."

"You mean, that man might be our enemy?" asked Ersey.

Altos nodded.

Ersie was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly.

"Okay, I see."

Although he still has a lot of questions he wants to ask about that world, but when he thinks about it carefully, why is there any need to ask?

He has come back, back to his own world, even though it is riddled with holes, and there are only two people, he and Altos, but he is the master of this world, and Altos is the orderer of this world , After I recall everything, I will definitely be able to find a way to rebuild this world.

As for the other world, if you really can't remember what happened there, then... just forget it.

Anyway, he will never have anything to do with that side again, will he?

The author has something to say: In the last chapter, I was shocked to see many people saying they couldn’t understand it, so I went to ask my friends and found out...it turns out that what I have been writing all along really makes people read, don’t, understand! ! Σ(°△°|||)︴

I was wrong orz... I thought I wrote it clearly, it seems that I am too God's perspective... [Weeping fainted in the toilet

qaq So part of the reason for the madness at the end is that everyone didn't understand it?The little angels who have been able to catch up to the present are really true love, and each of them has at least level ten reading comprehension...! !Thank you for your tolerance and perseverance woo woo qaq

In the last few chapters, I will start to fully clean up the previous burden and foreshadowing, but I am afraid that I will have the perspective of God again, so if you have any doubts or don’t understand, please leave a message and let me know! !It’s convenient for me to explain clearly in the text _(:3∠)_

In addition, tomorrow I will take a day off due to something, and I will update as usual at [-]:[-] on Sunday night ^_^
