362 Lesson 95: What is a snake?

"Well......, I'm a little off the record. Don't you still have a question?

"... Oh, you did"

To Lawrence's appearance, Meer only slightly corrected her posture.

"About the serpent of chaos…, I'd like you to tell me everything you know. What kind of tissue is a snake..."

"Organization……, is it"

Small twinkle......, Laurenz, thought slightly.

"Oh? Did I say something strange?

"Right... Shall I call the serpent of chaos a tissue…, for me, I cannot judge…"

"Hmm, does that mean it's not an organization?

To Meer leaning her neck, Laurenz said troubledly.

"Right...... I think that's defining...... I wonder if you would agree that it is something that is not cohesive, at least like an existing cult group. Each will follow their own plan and act upon it. Sometimes we work together, there is no sequence there, no superiority or inferiority. However, each moves in one direction…"

Then, Laurenz exhaled one,

"So I understand that the serpent of chaos is not a single mass, but a single stream…,"

"Flow...?

"Yes, one stream born in history…, one that destroys order and plunges the world into chaos…"

Meer imagines a river in her head. No matter how much water you take to make up the river, you can't stop the flow. If Barbara or Gem is just a drop of water... maybe it's just hard work.

"You've made the story abstract. Let me tell you something specific…, the people who make up the serpent of chaos will be able to classify themselves into four main categories"

With that said, Laurenz places, on a large plate, the baked sweets that were placed by his own side. It's a round cookie with small fruits on top.

- Well, was there such a thing? I didn't realize you were crazy about tarts. Ugh, looks delicious......

For a series of serious stories, it's a mea that ran out of sugar from the tart I ate a while ago sooner...... what the heck!

Aside from that......,

"Firstly, like me, we were supposed to work together, for example by being threatened, passive collaborators. Next, those who seek to exploit and profit from the serpent of chaos…, active collaborators. For example, His Majesty the First Emperor did not, in my view, empathize with the doctrine of the serpent. Did you use the doctrine of the serpent and try to achieve your own purpose, or did you cooperate because the serpent and his own purpose coincided... Either way, there are people who actively try to cooperate with the snake."

That's how Laurenz put down the second cookie.

"Hmm..."

Meer nodded as she put her arms together. At the end of that gaze was the cookie that Lawrence put down.

The next one was a cookie shaped like a medal made from knitted yarn.

- Pretty good job...... Did the confectioner at Lord Yellowmoon's house make it?

............... Meer's brain craves something sweet, so there's no choice. Yes, Meer's brain is bad!

"Furthermore, there are those who are called believers, who empathize with the doctrine of the serpent and act on its own initiative. The men Barbara brought are probably believers"

Lawrence put down the third cookie. The next one was white powdered throughout, as if decorated with snow.

To a cookie I've never seen, Meer is intrigued!

- Oh, you shouldn't. We need to focus on the story...... Um, followers, yes, we were talking about followers of snakes, weren't we?

"And..."

And, Laurenz, he cut the word once and took the last cookie.

It was a larger cookie, shaped like a leaf.

- Well... that cookie..., you're doing great. It's an artisan's appraisal to entertain you with your appearance and also your tongue...... Oh, yeah. Horse-shaped cookies, maybe? Or mushroom-shaped... Oh, yeah. The bottom part of the mushroom is made of cookies and the top umbrella part is jam or something to decorate......

Something was about to come up with an idea for a new treat that was going to be a long hit, and Meer probably shook her head all the time.

- Now we're talking about the snake of chaos! Concentrate, concentrate...... erm, what happened to snake-shaped cookies?

Inside, Laurenz said, approximating Meer in her struggle against the temptation of sweet things.

"There are those who teach and spread the doctrine of the serpent, the book of things that crawl through the earth, and those who are called serpent guides."

Laurenz put that leaf-shaped cookie on the plate. When Meer was blinded by the four delicious-looking cookies placed on the plate... right in front of her..., Laurenz grabbed the cookies all the way, hiccup, and put them in her own mouth for a while.

Laurenz cheeks muggles cookies and smiles deliciously.

Taste and eat carefully before

"Heh heh, still cookies, you shouldn't be eating chipmunks. I feel so happy with my cheeks all at once."

I said satisfactorily. That's right, it's a veteran FNY list.

"... ahhh"

With a sad voice, Meer slumped her shoulder and shut up.

- Ugh, that, I wanted to try it...

"Serpent Guides... Is that what you think the serpent is all about?

Ludwig said from next door that you saw Meer flustered in your thoughts.

"No, you don't. Lord Ludwig. I believe that the main body is only what flows to the bottom of the people, what binds them"

"Is that...?

"That is…, the Serpent's Scripture…, the book of things crawling through the earth"
