Chapter 145: An Incomplete Miracle (Part 2)
What is the most unforgivable sin in this world?
The same question can be obtained in the mouths of a thousand people, but Marcus, who was only ten years old at that time, watched everything he knew turned into ashes in a rolling sea of fire, and understood the "real" answer to this question.
"The most unforgivable sin in this world is the 'weak' itself! It seems incompetent because of weakness, it is bullied because of weakness, it is because of weakness... it is only possible to watch what belongs to you, it is crushed in front of you but can't do anything!"
This is... the only truth in this crazy world. Without the power to protect oneself, it is the original sin that causes all misfortunes. So, is resentment? Is pain? Then... let's change the essence of your weakness!
Fortunately, in Marcus's view at that time, the world was quite "fair". As long as you are willing to put in enough effort and sweat, strength is not something out of reach. The ten-year-old boy hides from his enemies and learns madly about all the power he can get in touch. Five years have allowed him to grow up quickly. The young man who is only fifteen years old is already a famous powerful hunter in the Tao.
Later, under the Pan-Human Alliance's incorporation of Hunters, he became a soldier. While washing his identity, he also came into contact with a battlefield that was more dangerous than his career as a hunter. Here, someone may fall down at any time. The initial separation of life and death may be unforgettable, but after seeing it for too much, it is just a vague concept.
After all... the reason why these people lose their lives is because of their own weakness? What a poor guy. If they could work harder to pursue strength, they might not have lost their lives so simply, right?
Marcus was rampant on the battlefield for seven years, but because of his strange and cold temper, he caused countless gossip. The seven-year battle result could not be exchanged for any possibility of promotion, and in the end he was just a small captain.
At this moment, a ray of dawn broke into Marcus's life without any preparation.
It was the first time that the girl who gave Marcus a "heart-pounding" feeling, approaching a dead life. She actually began to burn again under the illumination of that dawn.
"Now I... should have enough power to pursue happiness, right?"
But, what is most unpredictable in this world to guess by "common sense"... is the ever-changing "destiny"!
The girl has her own childhood sweetheart, and that person is one of the people Marcus hates the most in the army. He... is a magician!
Marcus does not have the qualifications to become a magician, but in fact he does not even have the qualifications to become a magician. Even though he can now rely on skills to kill a dozen magicians who have changed their positions in frontal battles, he still has no power to fight back when facing a real magician.
If the other party's strength is obtained by having the same conditions as you, then Marcus probably wouldn't think that magician is so annoying. As we all know, the thing that determines whether you can become an excellent magician is not acquired hard work and hard work, but also innate talent and talent!
From the moment of birth, it was destined to be classified as a trivial level. Without that ticket called "Talent", no matter how hard you try, you are destined to be unable to surpass those with "Talent". Is there anything more unreasonable in this world?!
Jealousy is the most likely thing to smash people's rationality, especially when he saw the other person's intimate appearance with the girl he liked, the fire of jealousy finally burst out completely, and while shattering reason, he made an extremely crazy decision.
So what about the magician? As long as you die... it's all over!
Over the years, Marcus has long been accustomed to solving all problems with strength. He is also very confident in his own strength. In his opinion, after more than ten years of hard practice and hard work day and night, will he still lose to the weak mage who is pampered and meditates for at most two or three hours a day?
Then... he was in a tragedy.
Although the mage is only at the level of a lower-level mage of HR2, as long as he is a magician, there are more than ten ways to feel the murderous intent that is close to him. If the sneak attack fails, how can a warrior who has never even changed his position, be the opponent of a magician? Even if he is just a lower-level mage who has just broken away from the level of a magic apprentice.
Of course, the result of the failed sneak attack cannot be to say "I was wrong" and just say "I'm wrong". He attacked his comrades at will in the army, and the attack was a noble magician. What's even more terrible is that the other party has the identity of a nobleman... Although he is a little noble who has fallen, the lean camel is bigger than a horse. No matter how bad he is, he is also a nobleman with his own family emblem and recognized by the Pan-Human League Royal Parliament. The result is absolutely devastating!
Marcus has a very poor popularity in the army, otherwise how could he have not been promoted for seven years? But he is not even a person who can speak. After all, although his ideas are extreme, there is no shortage of people in the army with the same ideas as him.
That person was Marcus's most trusted subordinate. He secretly found an opportunity to release the imprisoned Marcus. Although Marcus, who was regained his freedom, had escaped death, he was completely on the blacklist of the Pan-Human League. He probably wouldn't have ever made an open appearance in the Pan-Human League in his life.
The only way to survive is to give up your identity as a "person" from now on, and hide in a corner abandoned by the whole world. Here, no one cares about what your identity is. Anyway, the people living here are almost the same situation. This is a land that will never be revealed in the sun. This is a place where there will never be a "future" to be spoken of. This is a slum!
After spending decadent days in the slums, I thought my life was about to end, and another ray of light broke into Marcus's life...
...The dark truth society!
"We shine under the glory of the great Mother Goddess and are committed to bringing 'fairness' to this world. Poor people who are bullied by the unreasonable unfairness of this world, are you... willing to be our companions and spread the glory of the Mother Goddess together?"
Is it fair? Even if it's just a crazy saying, as long as there is even one in ten thousand possibility that is real, I...
"...Yes, please let me join in. I believe that my strength... will not disappoint you!"
So he joined the Dark Truth Society and became a believer of God. Although he initially scoffed at the Dark Truth Society's teachings, when he accepted the power of the "Mother Goddess" and obtained the powerful power that could only be possessed in his dreams in the past, Marcus's idea changed.
Maybe... this power is really good. As long as you have this power, people without "talent" can gain the same power as those with "talent". Yes, as long as you use this power to correct the unfairness that distorts the world, it is not a foolish empty talk.
Once a paranoid person like Marcus has a firm belief, it will be a terrible obsession. Belief is the stronger your obsession, the stronger your power can be summoned. Therefore, Marcus became the middle class of the Dark Truth Society in a short time and obtained a secret mission.
The task required to go to a remote mountain village called "Mololo Village" to execute the order almost slaughtered. He used to be a hunter and then rolled on the battlefield for seven years. Marcus did not show any resistance to this order. He was the person who was the easiest person to accept this order than those who were with him.
As long as you can call on the arrival of the Mother Goddess and turn around this unfair world, just a few hundred lives... die just to the point! No, or it should be said that just a few hundred lives can bring such a result, it is really... that's too much money!
The plan was originally very successful, but there was a problem at the last moment. It was a magician who emerged from somewhere. He was powerful and beyond imagination. However, in just a few dozen minutes, Marcus and his party were all forced into a desperate situation.
Magician... Damn, why is it a magician again?! My life... is it destined to be destroyed by these damn guys?!
Moreover, the power of this magician is stronger than any magician Marcus has ever seen in the past. The magician in the army was not even worthy of carrying shoes to the other party. The powerful magician who once destroyed his family when Marcus was ten years old seemed not as powerful as the person in front of him!
What’s even more disgusting is that this person is so... young!
Although Riel wears a hood from beginning to end, he did not deliberately suppress his voice when he spoke several times. It is easy to judge that a person with such a young voice will not exceed twenty-five years old at most!
He is so young, even if he starts practicing at birth, he will definitely not be able to match Marcus's practice time. However, such a young person has mastered a hundred times more power than Marcus.
Are people without "talent" destined to surpass those with "talent"?
When Marcus was shattered by Riel's ventilation tentacles and flew out softly, there was only the last thought left in his mind.
Why, you guys are only special?! Why, you were destined to be extraordinary from the moment you were born, but I was destined to be able to embrace despair from the beginning?!
The flame of rage changed into an extremely crazy decision-
——Are people without "talent" destined to be unable to surpass those with "talent"? I don't believe it... I don't believe it! You damn so-called "geniuses" should take a closer look, this is...
