Chapter 56?

Annan's expression was a little complicated.

Hearing what Dmitri meant, he seemed to know that Zhou Jiu was a transmigrator.

...In, this kind of thing is usually hidden until the end, right?

Righteous gods like Sir Silver, Grandmother and Yaon, just know this. How come even my brother and sister know that I am a transmigrator...

"Don't think about it, Annan."

Dmitry glanced at Annan and knew what he was thinking.

Even if he loses his memory, Annan is still Annan after all.

The cold-hearted man with long black hair said, "The first person we met was you.

"The biggest difference between Winter and other countries is that we don't name babies. We won't be able to get a baby until they grow up to be able to feed themselves, dress themselves, take care of themselves, and not starve to death alone at home. own name.

"People who are incapable of taking care of themselves don't deserve to have a name, let alone inherit a surname... they're just pets at best."

In winter, the boundaries between "human" and "beast" are not that far apart.

It can't be called an adult, it can only be regarded as a "cub".

The same is true.

If someone commits a crime that human beings should not do, does something that human beings should not do, then he will be stripped of his human name.

Just as Gryznuha Winter was stripped of the surname "Winter".

——In the Principality of Winter, this is a very serious "family law" punishment.

If someone is deprived of a surname by a family, he is legally cut off from all kinship. This is not a matter of sneakily depriving the surname, but it must be reported to the local Winter Church, and it must be reported to the whole country every year.

For example, the right to bail for relatives, or home surveillance, as well as the right to inherit or be inherited, have all been written off and cannot be restored. It's like labeling the other party's identity as an orphan with "no father, no mother and no relatives".

"Outcasts" who will be expelled from their families are usually regarded by other Winter people as "disrespectful of traditions", "committed major mistakes", and "deviant".

And if you take away the name,

That would be tantamount to directly stripping away all rights as a human being.

You wouldn't even be convicted of homicide if you killed "anonymous". It is the crime of "destroying other people's property" or "destroying public property".

Generally, felons who are imprisoned for more than 20 years, but not sentenced to death—or have enough value, will be sentenced to "expulsion" by the Principality of Winter.

Not just delisting in the legal sense.

Instead, use idol magic, directly from the mystical sense, to erase the name from this world. All the contracts he signed were voided, the ceremonies related to his name were erased, and even others could no longer recall his name.

That is, the one who has been forgotten by the world.

In the Principality of Winter, where "you can't be born until you get a name", the name is very important, one of the [components of human beings].

"And your name 'Annan' was created by you."

As Dmitri spoke, he subconsciously put his hand into his arms and touched the humidor.

But his right hand froze quickly, and he moved his hand from his arms uncomfortably as if he had thought of something.

As if covering up something, he immediately raised his voice slightly: "What we have known has been you from the very beginning.

"You have lost many mysterious memories. You may forget... In this world, foreigners are not particularly rare. The Principality of Winter is even more so-"

Near the Tower of Storms, there are occasional surviving ethereal creatures oozing from the hole.

After entering the fog world, which is the world where the fog continent is located, the imaginary creatures cannot directly obtain the body of matter. Because the virtual world is a world where [phenomenon] is higher than [existence], it is called "the virtual world".

The core power system of the Misty Continent is curse and oath.

The "element" and the original form of the element, "Sage's Stone", are extraordinary powers belonging to the virtual world.

——Annan already knew that Suifu was the one who stole fire.

The sage's stone in the virtual world is equivalent to the magic energy of the fog world. It is the root power of the world... It was only after Suifu stole the sage's stone from the virtual world that the world had the "elemental power".

"And the 'element', the power that determines the form of existence by the will, and is born from the soul and mind... is the characteristic of the virtual world."

Dmitry explained: "In other words, after entering this world, the imaginary creature must parasitize in the human body to survive. At least it is a creature with a will and a mind.

"And the 'missing body' can actually be understood as the consciousness born in the dream world. The dream world is a link between many worlds - the dream world is the largest in size and has no concept of time. to other worlds.

"In principle, it's not that only nightmares with the theme of 'the history of our world' are born. It's just that no one has the 'memory of other worlds'.

"I heard that there is a special ancient occupation called Dream Walker, which can enter and swim in dreams of other worlds... It's just that this 'secret' was later buried by the mysterious lady.

"It is not impossible for a soul to fall into this world from the other side of the dream world. Powerful dream walkers can forcibly capture the soul of another world into this world; and if it is an unknown creature native to the dream world, it is said that It allows the soul to enter other worlds without losing its memory. You said before, you should be the second.

"As far as I know, among the gods, the red knight and the bell ringer were born into this world from different worlds through the dream world. Miss Luck went through the dream world in the flesh and came to us from a certain world. The world... This is not a secret in the Church.

"Souls that can cross the dream world mean that they are born to remain fully awake in nightmares. This guarantees that every soul that descends from the other side of the dream world must be able to become extraordinary.

"...Actually, this is the second time I have discussed this topic with you."

I also laughed at The Four Darkness in Wonderland before.

It turns out that the other story is Annan's Adventures in Wonderland?

A world adjacent to the dream world?

Annan was lost in thought.

In that case, his original world should also be adjacent to the dream world.

If dream walkers can enter the dreams of other worlds... Maybe there is a knowledge of the dream world on the other side of the earth.

It's just that it's definitely not called "Dream World" over there. Just like the "mist world" doesn't care if it is called "the fog world".

...Could it be a fantasy world?

Stop it. In that case, could the boss of my family be...

Annan felt complicated.

He shook his head, dispelling the wild thoughts in his heart.

He suddenly noticed another detail:

"Wait, you said... born extraordinary?"

- If so, why did I choose the ritual path?
