Giant Adjustment (5)
When Shirone asked, the dry voice began to sound like an auditory hallucination again.
-Borbor was called that. But my real name is not Mika.
‘then?’
-I am Borbor.
Sirone’s brow furrowed.
-Of course, the body that died a little while ago is also Borbor. I am her analytical mind.
‘He created you himself?’
-yes. The extreme stress placed on her brain waves caused my separation.
Twelve-year-old Borbor watched the people on the streets and also realized something.
‘They aren’t looking at me. ‘You are seeing yourself looking at me.’
The boundaries of Pia collapsed, and from then on Borbor stopped observing people.
Her eyes turned inward.
-The realization that day helped Borbor’s life. Because she was able to look into herself and understand the characteristics of all humans.
‘Knowing myself is knowing humanity. This is only possible with long-term thinking and deep insight.’
-But life was not happy. She was still weak and had to look after her mother, who was tired from work, and her father, who was always violent.
“alcohol! hey! “Bring me a drink!”
Borbor could only get some money if his mother was in a good mood.
It wasn’t a particularly difficult task since I had an eye for penetrating other people’s emotions, but…
“This is something that cannot be avoided!”
Borbor’s mind gradually became sick due to the verbal abuse and assaults that were inflicted on him every day.
‘Human hatred.’
Even my stepfather’s tendencies are within me, so my hatred of people is a hatred of myself.
“You damn family!”
A bleeding mother and a broken liquor bottle. Borbor was brutally beaten that day.
“die! die!”
As consciousness gradually faded, my stepfather’s face suddenly turned pale.
“Who are you?”
He felt like he was the one on the floor and was overcome with an unknown fear.
“well. “Who am I?”
“This crazy little boy…
Borbor pulled his stepfather, who was trying to escape, into his arms and whispered into his ear.
The feeling of having your inner thoughts that you couldn’t say out loud be conveyed through someone else’s mouth.
“Black! “Huh!”
And when morning came, he hung himself with a rope on the ceiling.
His mother, who came to her senses, drank without saying a word, and Borbor curled up in a corner and thought.
‘I killed a person. ‘Is it me who is dead?’
With Pia’s boundaries broken, her spirit was rapidly dying.
And then.
-hello? nice to meet you?
A spark appeared in her brain, and bluish electricity began to appear before her eyes.
Borbor asked.
“Who are you?”
My mother turned her head, but frowned for a moment and then lost interest.
-well? What is it? hello?
Borbor smiled broadly.
“Mika.”
Sirone nodded.
‘The story is that I created you and escaped just before the boundaries of Pia collapsed.’
-yes. Actually, I have a very weak electrical signal. Born from Borbor’s brain.
‘But why are you telling me this?’
Mika got to the point.
-Borbor respected you for sacrificing yourself for humanity. I always wanted to help.
‘ okay??????
Sirone was depressed.
-The main body died, but I remained. Maybe I can help you.
‘huh?’
-I don’t know how this electrical signal is defined in reality, but it must be a very unusual phenomenon. Now I will seep back into the world and return to my original state, but I know I can come back.
‘Hmm.’
If electricity, which looks into the entire world,
exists as a substance beyond phenomena – don’t worry. I will not dwell in anyone but Borbor. Existence doesn’t mean much to me. I just want to help you.
‘What do you think?’
-The moment will come when you will need me. Borbor said that, so it’s probably right. Of course, it would have been better if she had done it herself, but that is now impossible. It might be an illusion, but Mika looked sad.
-If you need my help, please call me Mika. It will respond to your voice.
‘But… you’re Borbor.’ I thought maybe I could feel the life of Borbor through Mika.
-I like the name Mika.
Sirone, who read the long lingering meaning in the short answer, decided to follow her words.
‘okay. okay.’
When the electric current at his fingertips disappeared, Shirone stood up and looked around.
The stars were not visible and a cold wind was blowing through the hole made by the three thousand worlds.
“It’s Mika.”
Suddenly, a weak electric current passed through my body.
-yes. Did you call me?
Shirone blinked and cleared his throat.
‘No, I was just muttering. sorry. We just broke up and I’m really embarrassed.’
-are you okay. Borbor was a human, but I have already assimilated into the world and have no concept of time. To tell you a few things, Baal is currently up to the 76th floor. The locations of the other Ivory Tower stars
…
Mika relayed key information about what is currently happening within the Ivory Tower via brain waves.
‘This… is really amazing.’
Borbor’s Legacy Mika was able to process all the information in the world simultaneously.
-If you need anything else, please call me.
I could tell that Mika had left again because the electric current flowing through my body had disappeared.
Shirone savored the feeling for a moment, looked up at the ceiling, and muttered.
“Portrait feeling.”
I remembered a conversation I had with my friends at the supernatural and psychic science research group during my magic school days.
‘Only at the end of the world…
A bitter smile appeared on Sirone’s lips.
“But I found it, Nade.”
A forest outside the Vatican.
Sirone and Eden watched the terrible ritual taking place at the village hall.
Seina felt angry that one of them was Maximus, whom she admired.
‘Selling your soul to Satan!’ However, the holy eye was not activated and the holy sword Astasia did not shine at the moment.
‘okay??????
Seina became sullen.
‘I am not qualified to punish evil. ‘The faith I had from the beginning was fake.’
Eden said after examining her.
“Let’s move places for now. “It’s also dangerous to talk in the middle of enemy territory.”
Sirone and his group hid in the outskirts of the village and sat in a circle in the shade.
“Eden, how did you get here?”
“The Habitz assassination failed and I was lost. So I went to see my teacher.”
There was a blue glow in her eyes.
“Inside the castle. I chase away evil spirits with these eyes. “There is great evil here.”
Seina was surprised.
“how?”
Does this mean that Jorah can have the castle that only a Paladin of the Ramic Church can open?
“This is ridiculous! Those who believe in Crea are Lamigyo! “Yorism doesn’t even have any gods.”
Eden said.
“Because fighting evil is the same. But the method is wrong. In Lamiism, they say that a messenger from God needs three things. An organization trained in sacred weapons and divine power.” “But you probably saw it on your way here too. It’s distorted because you’re only obsessed with what you see. “The Paladin is brainwashed, and the Inquisitor tortures himself in order to torture others.”
“Don’t make conclusions based on just the parts. “It is true that we have made mistakes, but this is a church that has defeated evil for a long time.”
“Then one day, the Church of Satan infiltrated the Lami Church.”
Eden ignored it and continued.
“Of course it’s not that I don’t understand. No matter how much a priest he is, he cannot be free from emotional illness. No, it must have been more difficult because there was so much to protect. “The demons came in looking for a gap in his heart.”
Seina bit her lip.
“It’s not just here. Among the cardinals of each country, there are many who have fallen prey to Satanism. Lamiism is the world’s largest religion, so how many people believe in Satanism? Soon the whole world will…
“Stop it!”
Seina shouted.
“Is the world’s largest religion wrong? Then what about Yorism? “I’m sure there are people among us who have fallen for Satanism.”
“No, there is no such thing.”
“lie! “Do you think I will believe that?”
“Because from the moment you fall into Satanism, you are no longer Jorah. Then you tell me. Are the priests over there still priests to you?” Seina couldn’t say.
“Do you understand now? Something visible. Position, rank, purity, divine power. Of course, it takes noble faith to obtain it, but that in itself is not a measure of goodness. Rather, evil preys on loopholes in such rigidity.”
Eden was like that at one time.
“The voices I heard in the heart of Satan were terrible, but they were by no means rare or special. Rather… the resonance that is closest to humanity and deepest within.”
“I know.”
Seina honestly admitted.
“I became a paladin and defeated evil. But the more I did it, the more I didn’t know. What exactly is a line? I thought that if I eradicate evil or cut down a demon, it would be good… but
my hands were stained with blood.
“The founder of the Church of Yorra, the 1st Jorah, said this. The power of good is not the ability to eliminate evil, but the ability to change evil into good. Therefore, that power can never be in the form of destroying something, and can only be achieved through self-sacrifice.”
“sacrifice??????
Eden made an awkward expression.
“Actually, I also heard this from my teacher. Of course, it is still difficult to understand and even to imitate, but it is the basis of my strength. I feel the power of good in you. “I’m sure I can regain my divine power.”
Seina smiled.
Although I received comfort from Jora of another church, I now realized something.
‘What you see doesn’t matter.’ It’s the heart.
“Oh and.”
Eden looked back at Sirone.
“I knew you would be here. The reason I am specially sent to the Vatican is because I have something to say. This is what 300 people gathered together and discussed, and in the future, the Yora Church will fight against Satanism around the world according to the will of Yahweh.”
“But I think I will create a religion. “I know. But Yor does not distinguish between sects. So I can help. “Only a person who stands up alone can love the whole world. This is the teaching of the first Jorah.”
Iruki said.
“There is a certain resemblance to Shirone.”
Eden hesitated for a moment and then opened her mouth.
“I thought the same thing after hearing the legend. We have a lot in common. Practicing love and philanthropy. “A mindset that places more importance on things that cannot be seen.”
Seina asked.
“Then has he also reached the level of Yahweh?”
“no. According to tradition, he didn’t even have divine powers. “He didn’t have any special powers to fight evil.”
“But since we have defeated countless powerful evils, isn’t this passed down to this era?”
“It wasn’t described accurately, but when I heard the story, one thing immediately came to mind.”
Eden looked back at Sirone.
“Demon sword Armand.”
“huh?”
“It’s about the object you carried around. “I think the first owner of that sword was probably the 1st Yora.”
“When Armand… asked who he was, the face of a woman who answered that she was sharpening a knife came to mind.
