18 - A few thoughts of the Paragon Faye

I hate this mortal.

Usually, I do not harbor any ill feelings for mortals; I usually do not harbor any feeling at all for them, but him…

He does not treat anything or anyone with respect.

One of the things he does which irritates me the most is that he does not treat the name of Lady Alexandra with the reverence it, and the Lady herself, deserves.

No, he rather uses her name with contempt and associates himself freely with her, which I find revolting.

I cannot imagine what kind of life he must have led in his previous one.

He is an insane half-wit and I also believe him to be the same in the moments he had before he lost his sanity to this world’s system.

Sheltering himself, out of his own free will, as a child and separating himself from most, if not all emotions to play out his little game of using his ability every day without miss, like a mindless automation to gain just an increment of power.

And because his minuscule strength is considered fantastical in this world, he supposes himself as strong.

I would never say that in front of him because I fear what the goddess may say but that was a foolish thought.

Sometimes my mind wanders to speculate about his world and his previous life in it.

What kind of misery must he have experienced to have ended up like his incarnation is now?

All his life, from childhood to even now, he has kept most, useful, knowledge about his world to himself.

The topic on which he has decided was most important and must be shared with me, in parts, was something called 'Anime' and a place called 'Japan'.

This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it.

I imagine he must have been something akin to a historian and his field of study was 'Anime' and 'Japan', where a variety of things happen, from powerful figures waging war against each other to youths holding strange romantic rituals.

But sometimes he asks me about my opinion on things or expects me to retort in a manner as I would have knowledge about the same topics as him.

I only know what the great goddess decided me to have, which was most about the world I currently resided at, by the side of a mortal madman.

If it were not for the reassurance I know that I have from Lady Alexandra I, too, would have gone insane as he already was.

Neither, if it were not for her, I would not have been faithful in my role as Paragon for this man.

As for examples:

No, I do not know any version of a person called Marada Uchiha and I do not care if there is anyone who is stronger than him.

No, I don’t understand his hatred for ‘Gacha’ or why his dislike for ‘Isekai’ or "System" is ironic.

Often, when he thinks I am listening, he replaces words in his sentences with those of another language I cannot understand.

As a last complaint, I also do not understand why he yells out specific phrases when using abilities.

Haduken's, Haki, Amaterasu's, Stand Power, or any thing with the word ‘Jutsu’ at the end, as a few non-specific examples.

Slowly I can understand the pattern behind it.

Always, it does not matter what has happened, it was according to his ‘keikaku’.

I cannot understand that man. Nothing he talks about has any significance to this world.

Sometimes I wished that Lady Alexandra had made him a mute in this life.

Mostly he collects new skills and abilities as he ventures on but because of the sheer amount of them, he has yet to use most of them even once.

Though all his mischief and annoyance caused a lot of people of this world irritation, the latest events made even me question the decision that Lady Alexandra has made to give him life anew.

He attacked the armies of two kingdoms while implicating me and the Goddess herself as associates of him.

He freely stated his name then even attacked the kingdom of Landsfor’s strongest mage.

But just after a short fight; he did not even hurt him; he told me that we were leaving.

Since then he has been surpassingly introspective and somber, toning down his usual antics.

I do hope he remains this way for a while longer before returning to his usual self.

Which will not take long because now he fancies the idea of being a liberator of slaves.
