The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 96: The Curse of Seti

The husky tilted his head.

She glanced at the man curiously, but her mind hadn't turned around yet.

Why does he know my name?

Husky thought of this and subconsciously looked up.

...There is no ID floating in the air?

A Dian on the side suddenly realized something.

She wondered if this might be the big shot who "will come tomorrow".

So Ah Dian turned around, looked at the man respectfully, and tentatively said hello:

"Girandaio...sir?"

The middle-aged man with black hair and black eyes turned his head and nodded calmly towards Ah Dian: "Long time no see, Ah Dian."

"...Huh?"

The husky made a confused sound again.

A Dian on the side put his hand on his face helplessly.

She actually felt that she was not very smart...but standing with the husky, she became the smarter one.

The husky opened his mouth wide and blinked.

She gradually realized that something was wrong.

——She now wants to make an urgent post on the forum: She didn’t recognize the big boss who came to inspect the grassroots level, and she even asked him without hesitation if he had any private work he could do... In this case, if If she is a girl, can she get by by acting cute?

"...I was joking just now, boss."

The husky tried to show an innocent smile.

Fortunately, Ghirlandaio did not take her words seriously.

Although they have no memory of each other, Ghirlandaio seems to have known them well: "Where is Shisanxiang?"

"Well, he...is sleeping."

Ah Dian was about to say that he was offline, but after thinking about it, he still didn't dare to say it.

So I could only express tactfully that he was tired and sleeping.

Unexpectedly, Ghirlandaio just said clearly: "He must have gone back to your world.

"When can you come back? It must be early morning at your place, right?

"Did Longjing Tea tell him that when he is in this world, your body is considered to be sleeping?"

"...Huh?"

The husky once again showed a naive and blank expression.

Although they already have a general idea that this world is "not a game, but a different world". But hearing the aborigines calmly talking to them about the "other world" made the Huskies stunned for a moment.

Seeing that the "wise man's" brain was in a "background running" state again, the girl with flaming hair and swollen eyes suddenly laughed out loud.

She generously extended her hand to the two of them and introduced herself: "My name is Nefertari, hello...braves from another world."

Having been in contact with Annan and the players for so long, Nefertari’s initial misunderstandings about the players have naturally been resolved.

She is a true "wise man" after all.

She also learned from this that the cost for players to conquer the nightmare was not as great as she imagined; after they were eroded by the curse in the nightmare, there were ways to save them.

Unfortunately, this is because they have special constitutions and cannot be popularized. The main members of the Hidden Eye are all alien spirits who entered this world from the dream world and obtained artificial bodies. Perhaps it is because when they entered this world, their spirits had deep contact with the dream world, and they are better at purifying nightmares than people in this world.

They seem to call this "Xiaben".

But just as she said to Neuser.

The achievements made by the Hidden Eye should not be discounted just because the dangers they encountered were not that great.

She still thinks they are all heroes.

When Nefertari was a child, he firmly believed that an ordinary person who would be burned to death by fire, and an extraordinary person who was not afraid of flames, both rescued an innocent person from the fire. The merits should be the same.

Although the former's road to doing good is more difficult.

But we should not think that the latter's good deeds are inferior to those of the former. Nor should we blame the latter for not trying his best just because he only saved one person. I think the other party should save a few more.

For the rescued people, their feelings when they see someone extending a helping hand have nothing to do with what the other person has given up.

What they care about is the fact that they were saved.

Only those who watch will comment on "What has this person sacrificed?"

It seems that only the story of a brave man using all his strength to defeat the devil is worth moving.

That's just the margin of the spectator.

A person with only ten silver coins donates nine silver coins to the victims, which is naturally worthy of praise; but if a person with a hundred gold coins comes out at this time and only donates ten gold coins to the victims, someone will take the previous one. People go and rebuke him.

Nefertari deeply understands that...such harsh criticism will not do any good to the situation, but will make other people with a hundred gold coins reluctant to take action.

Even if they know it, people with hidden eyes will not be destroyed by nightmares.

She didn't have any resentment towards them either - instead she had more confidence in Ghirlandaio's career.

If it were another person, they might think, "Then what they did is nothing extraordinary."

But Nefertari would never do that.

People who do good things should at least not be reprimanded——

This is the philosophy of life taught to Nefertari by her teacher Seti the Bone Healer:

The greater the power, the more one should do good deeds and be lawful.

But this kindness should be spontaneous ~IndoMTL.com~ and should not be forced by others. If you do it for the expectations of others, you will only face an increasingly heavier burden.

Because fools always have expectations that are almost blind to those who are stronger than themselves, and will be disappointed if the other person fails to meet them. Therefore, if there is no special need, never show your strength casually.

"——The so-called wise man protects himself, this is the way of a wise man. If you have ten points of strength, you can only use seven points at most; the remaining three points is where you have room to act."

Nefertari, who was only a teenager at the time, asked Master Seti a question:

"If we gain power, we should also hide it.

"So why did you pursue this power in the first place?"

Of course it is to be able to use it when encountering difficulties - this is what Seti originally wanted to answer.

But he was silent for a long time in the end.

Because Seti, the Bone Healer, has always been considered to have some kind of "curse" here.

He is the greatest idol wizard, the strongest healer in the underground world, and a ritual master with great power. Many children of great people, many geniuses and eccentrics, have learned from him.

But.

Anyone who becomes a student of Seti...

In the end, he failed to fulfill his original dream.

None.

Some people even doubt... whether Seti sacrificed the dreams of these children in exchange for their talents. But only Seti knew, and he did nothing.

The moment he heard Nefertari's question, he felt dazed and vaguely realized something.

Maybe...

Is there something wrong here?

Maybe it really is a curse.

It's just that Seti didn't realize it...

That is...the curse called "Knowledge Chases People Out".
