Volume 3: The Land of Mist Chapter 69 The Purpose of "Reason"
"...That's all I have to say. As a high-ranking Moon Realm Lord who is closest to the Void King, I believe you will understand that what I said is true. As for how to make the decision, it is up to you to judge for yourself."
"Reason" said, straightening his collar, which was not wrinkled at all, and then bowed to Blake and Remedios. Then he turned his gaze to the floating curtain in the center of the hall. At this moment, William in the picture was being besieged by three demon generals, and he seemed to be struggling to resist.
Blake looked at the tense battle situation in the picture with some seriousness, then looked at the uninvited "rationality" and said:
"But I don't see how it would benefit you to tell us this information. Even though Mad Fool behaves strangely, she is not a philanthropist. Would she tell us such important information for nothing?"
"It is my own decision to tell you this information. Your judgment is correct. No matter how crazy my master is, he will not choose to tell these things to our greatest enemy in the Moon Realm."
"Reason" replied in a calm tone.
"That doesn't make sense. Aren't you a demon general loyal to Valk?"
Blake, sitting on the throne, continued to ask.
"Well, this is another common misunderstanding. But I don't really understand why you think that a nihilistic king who symbolizes 'madness and stupidity' would have a demon general named 'reason'?"
For the first time, a barely perceptible smile appeared on Reason's face , and it answered sarcastically.
"You call Valk 'Master'."
"Then I guess human slaves are all willing to call those who put shackles on them their masters, right?"
Reason continued to answer with that sarcastic tone, and then, without waiting for Blake to continue asking, it went on to explain:
"Originally I was supposed to be a sword, a bow or something . But luckily or unfortunately, Mr. Valk won a bet, so I became what I am now."
"Wait, you mean your essence..."
"That's right. Judgment Armor was created in that shocking gamble. It's a weapon that is powerful enough to harm the immortal life of the Void King. Should it be said that it is a concept that is opposite to them, or something else? In short, the other twelve Void Kings obediently made them into weapons called Judgment Armor, and only I became a high-ranking Moon Realm Spirit. In addition, I have to say that your Chief Judge has really bad taste in naming. I don't have to bear a stupid name. This is the only consolation for me that I was not made into a weapon."
Blake ignored the second half of the other party's sentence, pondered for a moment, and then pointed out the problem:
"If that's the case, then there's no reason for Valk to let you be the chief steward of the Crazy Theater."
After all, who would hand over the custody of their own Moon Realm to a Moon Realm being who has completely opposite concepts to themselves?
But to this, "reason" gave a very calm answer:
"Then how do you think she should deal with me so as to better reflect her 'madness' and 'foolishness'? In other words, if she really thinks of a proper way to deal with me, then the name of 'rationality' should also be inherited by him. Besides, the most important thing that Lord Valk does in the Madness Theater is to constantly overturn the plans drawn up by me. I, the chief butler, am essentially just a tool to reflect her madness. "
"So, this is why you told us that information earlier? You hope we can thwart Valk's plan?"
Remedios, who had been silent until now, could not help but ask after hearing this.
"Reason" sneered and shook his head.
"Plan? She never had any specific plans. Even if she told you those things, it would only increase the variables in the future and bring her more surprises."
"Reason" said, with a sneer on his face revealing a hint of resentment.
"So what is your purpose?"
Blake asked thoughtfully.
"I want to see her die."
…………
Just as suddenly as it came, Reason bowed to them for the last time and then turned into countless gray crystals and dissipated in the hall.
Remedios looked at Blake, but before she could speak, Blake spoke first:
"Wait a moment... I guess Valk left some mark when he brought his circus to Black Crow Watch. At that time, he was the only one who brought his own tribe here, but I overlooked it."
A demon general, or a high-level Moon Realm being with power reaching the scale of a demon general, could be teleported to the "Black Crow Watch" throne hall so openly. This meant that the other party must have left something in there.
As he spoke, Blake stretched out his left hand, which turned into a bird's claw and grabbed with force. A tattered dark blue elephant doll was instantly grabbed out of the void, and a sharp cry like a child came out of its mouth.
"Tsk... Fortunately, the Chief Judge insisted that all meetings be held in Dawn Fortress, and a large number of shielding barriers were set up in the conference hall inside the fortress. Otherwise, our movements would have been figured out by the other party long ago."
Blake said as he squeezed hard, and the tattered blue elephant doll exploded with a loud bang, and instantly turned into fireworks all over the sky and dissipated in the air.
"If the presiding judge finds out about this kind of low-level mistake, won't he punish me by putting me in solitary confinement?"
Looking at the fireworks dissipating in the air, Blake said with a wry smile.
Remedios looked at him seriously and asked:
"You have been in solitary confinement for more than 800 years. I don't think the presiding judge would think that this kind of thing is any punishment for you... Or, do you really not intend to tell the presiding judge about the things that your 'reason' told you before?"
Just as Reason had said before, it was not visiting on behalf of its master's will, and it also hoped that the two of them would not talk to it on behalf of their master's will.
This is also the reason why the other party chose to visit at this time when the attention of both masters was diverted.
Blake said nothing.
Remedios immediately continued to ask:
"So, is everything it says true?"
"Although there are still some details that need to be verified, my intuition shows that it should be true - the method that can truly kill the Void King..."
Blake stared at the battle in the center of the hall and answered in a voice that seemed as if he was afraid that William in the picture would hear him.
"But the presiding judge will never agree to use this method. It is too dangerous and the cost is too high."
Remedios also spoke in a low voice.
"So, what's your opinion?"
After a long silence, Blake asked directly.
Remedios looked at the judge who seemed to be in a difficult situation on the screen, and sighed slightly.
"Except for the last part about 'method', please tell the judge everything else truthfully."
Seeing this, Blake smiled and said:
"Although I agree with you on this point, if you make this judgment based on the current situation, I can only say that the Judge will definitely win this battle in the end."
