Story of Longevity

v3 Chapter 657: The human resources department of Hongji

There are many tragedies in the Ark of Hongjie. They all have an unfair destiny and a miserable life. This misery is common in their [begin], [childhood], [love] and [end] destiny.

Those of them are rarely the kind of people who occupy the protagonist position in the destiny. Instead, they will find the corresponding [Destiny Script] in other worlds. A harlequin, even a female actor destined to be saved.

Although the existence of these tragedies as opposed to comedy is absolutely necessary and is one of the possibilities that cannot be completely eradicated, the tragic character itself is definitely unwilling.

Therefore, as a cross-world smuggling organization of profiteers, Hongjie’s Ark Human Resources Department has spotted these people who are [destined to be tragedy, if they are not tragedy, the world can’t turn, the story can’t advance], and they are treated as little brothers. Drive arbitrarily.

It is to save their doomed tragic life in disguise, but also to solve the problem of the lack of manpower of Hongjie Ark. And although these people are supporting roles, in order to show the protagonist's fast growth rate, the overall quality of these green leaves is not bad, and some even reach the top level in the world.

People are smart, talented, and willing to work hard. Most of them are more knowledgeable about current affairs than the children of Tianjiao, and they are really rare good boys.

And these tragic little brothers can also look for more, more tragic characters than themselves, cheat on the boat, and become the little brother of the little brother, referred to as the little brother, and it will not be too miserable even if the days are over.

Although there is a suspicion of half-distribution of MLM sales, but it is after all what you want, and the rewards and promises are also fulfilled in accordance with the contract. How can it be said that it is a fraud?

Therefore, Xingke was only performing the daily tasks he had to do when he went out every day as a member of the Ark of the Great Realm, and there was absolutely no intention to come to cheat Mr. Chunliang.

Although I did feel a little rebellious because of the depreciated worthlessness, I had the urge to prove myself. However, Snape still couldn't accept the thoughts instilled by Starcut for a while--

He is a technical house of potions alchemy, he is a senior expert in spiritual magic, and he rarely reads modern fantasy novels and movies to relieve boredom. Snape was like an ascetic who restrained his entertainment, unlike Dumbledore who had fallen into a sea of ​​games, swimming freely.

So when Xingke talked about the topic of [rebirth], the first thing he thought of was [artificial reincarnation-seizing the house], and with the precedent of the seven brothers of Tom, he still a little rejected changing his body.

"Excuse me, Xingke, do I have the right to refuse? I don't want to kill another of my life because of my own regret."

Even if Snape was good at spiritual magic, he also possessed a powerful [Occlumency] to protect his brain and spirit, and he was 100% confident that he could destroy the mental defense of a kid and be reborn. But his own self-esteem does not allow him to do this kind of thing.

"That's not a problem... Snape, what do you think of your current magical power?"

"...It's nothing compared to you." Snape replied humbly.

"Well, you are right." Xing Ke nodded affirmatively:

"But, apart from me, I can roughly guess that you are better than the Tom Seven Brothers back then..."

"So what? Even if I can return to that time with such strength, even if I can protect Lily perfectly, but it is still not where I should be. [Missed] is [Missed], I can’t go to another world to compete with another self for the body, and use another young body to chase a fake."

Snape shook his head. His Lily was no longer there. It was not a joy to look for a replacement that was exactly the same now.

"Uh...you are strict, but if you are too strict, it is a mental cleansing.

And are you underestimating me? Saying that you will be born again, you will be born again. It's a childish man. It's definitely not a fake and shoddy product like Desperate Reborn——"

Although Xingqi had never told Snape about her own reincarnation mystery, Snape had ridiculed himself in a straightforward manner...I took down this enmity.

"Ahem, Snape, you should know that when the wizard had just awakened his magic power when he was a child, he actually had a small chance of dying in the violent magic power.

It is not without the world line where you died of magical awakening. In that world, you didn't even have the qualifications to stand on the stage, so you died. If you don't replace him, then his life will end here.

And as long as I move a little bit, I can arrange you in the past, make you younger, let you use your current strength and memory to brush your childhood dungeon, step on Potter, beat Tom, marry Lily, let Harry? Potter, renamed Harry Snape, let the magic world resound through your half-blood prince... Are you sure you are not interested? "

Seeing that Snape was a little startled, Xingke knew that with a mouth he had imagined a wonderful future for him and it worked.

But it's just that.

Xingke found that his words still didn't fully touch Snape, which disappointed her a bit—

After more than 30 years of silence, Snape really turned gray like his hair, his casual personality became stable, and his ambition disappeared.

No, maybe twenty years ago, when he stood in the attic and watched his enemy die under the fang dagger he made, he might have died in his heart?

So in that case, Star Moment had no effort to convince Snape. Anyway, miserable little brothers are everywhere, and he is not attached to a 60-year-old premature aging man.

But at this moment, Snape suddenly gave a cold smile:

"First of all, it made me unable to deceive and comfort myself in my heart, and it made me unable to deny my life experience.

Then it made me realize how much stronger my power is now than before...

Finally, I described what a beautiful scene and a happy life would be if I had the strength to go back to the past...

I am really flattered to be able to let you do this. "

It was clear that what he wanted him to do before was a violent threat. Now he is so "gentle", Snape was actually very surprised.

"But it also makes me worry about whether I have to pay more pain in exchange for the illusory happiness you describe..."

It can only be said that Snape may be thinking too much. However, this is understandable, after all, no one has been so "gentle" to him before this.

"So, do you want to take this contract?"

With a weird face, Xingqi took out a universal contract of the Ark of the Great Realm and placed it in front of Snape. The changes in the situation were a little unexpected, but it didn't seem to be completely unreliable.

"Your Excellency Xingke, no, master, as you said, my life is full of regrets...I have nothing to lose..."

————

———

——

Soon after Xing Ke and Yi Liya left the underground palace on the twelfth floor, they stopped staying under the ground any longer, and they soon ascended to the ground.

However, Xing Ke's face looked a little uncomfortable:

* ̄m ̄)...I feel that I have lost my life."

"Ah? Is there any?" Illiya looked at the unhappy star carving with a clever smile, comforting:

"You just said a few words and paid a chance to travel through the world to gain Professor Snape's eternal allegiance. With his quality, if you do things for you, you can earn back the cost of a journey through rebirth in two or three years. ?"

"This is not a question of money or money. If I become a mercenary, I can buy fifty or sixty Snapes for any appearance fee!"

[One hit kills the strongest master of the Ark of the Great World]——[Clearly marked price? On sale]

"What's the problem?" Illiya knew that Xingke always clings to some strange places.

"The last request that guy made! ~ It's very uncomfortable..."

"Oh, that's really surprising, I remember he should have been a little more [dead]..."

Ilya nodded clearly--

————

"Master, for you, the life span of a person, or at least the life span of the body, shouldn't be a big problem... right?"

Snape asked after signing the contract.

According to his feelings, Xingke didn't seem to care that he was a 60-year-old man, and Xingke, who should have been in her forties, looked like an eight or nine-year-old girl, so he concluded that it might have been There are technical means to break the growth of human age.

"That's right, [physical age] has never been a reason for my employees to be lazy or slow."

There is no [retirement and old-age care] caused by aging. Xingqi's approach is undoubtedly squeezing labor.

"Then before I accept the restarted life, can you give me a longer vacation... I want to finish what I haven't done, which is my farewell ceremony to this world."

With that, Snape turned his gaze to his disciple-Susie.

The girl who looked very gloomy and hid her beautiful face under her long gray and purple hair, as if she didn't care about everything that happened here, now she can no longer ignore them.

Not only because the topics they talked about at Xingke were too big, but also because Xingke bought her teacher in a few words.

"In the last era, before the establishment of Hohenheim, when the non-family inheritance of wizards was still an apprenticeship system, it took four years for personal apprentices to become independent teachers.

After all, Susie has been studying with me for a year and a half. Master, can you leave me two more years? "

Xingke turned her head to look at the girl Susie. She had already put down the book, and her exposed eye was faintly looking at Xingke. I don't know what I am thinking...Although there is no hostility, there is a strange malice.

Think of the star carving as a white mouse, and want to see how bad the star carving poison is.

"...Well, of course. I don't care about a few years."

————

"That guy Snape, he didn't care about anyone other than himself before—"

In other words, his heart is so small that he can't hold anyone other than his beloved Lily.

After the death of his beloved Lily, his hatred for Voldemort was initially born, and at the same time he combined his love for Lily and hatred for Potter on Harry.

All his feelings originated from Lily, who was a childhood sweetheart.

During the teaching period in Hohenheim, because I closed my heart, I had no feelings for the students at all, and some were just strict requirements out of a sense of responsibility.

"But now he actually opened his heart and accepted a disciple.

If it’s just like this, it’s fine, but he deliberately showed this fact to me, as if he was saying to me——【Look, although I still can’t let go of the past, I can already move forward, you envy Not envious? ] Same, it’s shameless, right? "

Illya looked at Xingqi with an expression of eating dog food, somehow amused:

"Isn't this bad? Don't you accept others slowly, Guise? No need to be envious, right?"

"...What are you talking about, 100 million years earlier."

Some speechlessly dropped a word, Xingke walked towards the door of Chishua's office without looking back...

————

After more than a year's lapse of guests, in the Underground Palace Potions Laboratory on the 12th floor of the Clock Tower, Snape held his glasses and looked at the contract and badge in his hand.

Suddenly, he stretched out his magic wand and pointed it at his disciple Susie who was next to his experiment table~lightnovelpub.net~ and put all the test tubes in her hand on the shelf, exploding a toxic corroded hole...

Just now, he noticed that Susie did not make standard protective measures when preparing dangerous goods. If he had just been a step late, Susie's fingers would have been corroded.

"The results of the 32nd experiment to the 49th experiment were rejected, and the preparation was restarted. The safety measures are the lifeline of the potion maker. Both medicine and poison are mutually transformed."

"……is teacher."

Susie began to clean up the debris in silence.

Silence fell suddenly... a different silence than usual.

"...Do you have anything to say?"

"No."

"..."

"..."

There is no difference in peace, this pair of masters and disciples was originally so silent.

Originally, even if they met, they were just passing by each other. If it weren't for Chishua's mandatory arrangement, they would never become masters and apprentices.

However, what is different from the mandatory arrangement is that what makes two people live in exceptional harmony is the two people's closed hearts, non-interference, and...unreserved professors.

"...Although it can't be seen on the surface, the little silver-haired girl is actually a tofu-hearted person.

He takes pleasure in making fun of others, but never takes pleasure in making others miserable. "

"..."

"Hey... I just took a look. Actually, this job is very free. As long as you have your own income, you can freely decide where to stay."

"..."

"I'm going on a business trip in two years and want to entrust you to look at this underground palace, especially the magic plant garden next door. I will add a course recently."

"...Yes, I see, teacher."
