Bab 948: -936- [ Attila ]
Looking at the silent Altera in front of him, who boldly stared at himself without any intention of looking away, Rozen suddenly remembered.
"Speaking of which, this is the first time we've had a one-on-one conversation since I left your stone chamber, right?"
Rozen brought up the matter.
"A conversation...?" Altera raised her eyebrows and said expressionlessly, "If it's not necessary, there's no need to engage in such actions."
Saying this, Altera, for the first time, moved her gaze away.
Isn't this a bit insincere?
At least, that's the impression Altera is giving Rozen now.
Rozen scratched his cheek and finally asked a question that had been on his mind.
"I've always wanted to ask, but it seems that you are somewhat different now compared to when you were in the stone chamber. What's going on?"
Setting aside appearance, let's talk about personality.
The giant Altera in the stone chamber seemed a bit introverted and passive, only becoming assertive when necessary, possessing calmness and intellect that didn't seem suitable for destruction.
She was easy to communicate with, gentle, and had an approachable demeanor, leaving a good impression on Rozen.
On the other hand, the Altera as a heroic spirit had a personality that was both cold and ruthless, quite different from the time in the stone chamber.
If the heroic spirit Altera is seen as the embodiment of destruction and an invader of civilizations, many would be willing to acknowledge that.
Contrary to this, the original giant Altera didn't show any inclination towards that, leaving Rozen puzzled.
Regarding this...
"I never had a specific personality to begin with," Altera said in a warrior-like tone, speaking indifferently.
"The distinct personality I had in the stone chamber was because remnants of a civilization I once destroyed lingered and were unconsciously absorbed by me at that time."
Because of this, Altera began to have a clear personality, and the concept of character was born.
Since that civilization seemed to be a knowledgeable and nurturing intellectual system with a motherly spirit, Altera gained qualities such as elegance, purity, stability, tolerance, and the kindness, affection, and rationality of a goddess.
This created a girl who had a calm and accommodating demeanor, with the loneliness and illusion brought by the standpoint of an elder and the coldness and ruthlessness of an invader.
In summary, Altera's personality is composed of three elements, corresponding to the three primary colors of her three-colored light sword.
The green side represents her as a girl, delicate and cute.
The red side represents her as a warrior, cold and intimidating.
The blue side represents her as a goddess, kind and gentle.
Basically, these three colored lights represent Altera's personality, just like a traffic light.
In normal times, Altera's personality is blue, switching to the green personality when awakened or happy, and turning red during battles or moments of anger.
These personalities are independent of each other, resembling multiple personalities in humans. Altera switches between them as needed, using them judiciously.
Of course, even with multiple personalities, Attila's interests and preferences remain unchanged. The only thing that changes is her personality, not her values.
For example, facing something she likes, Altera will like it regardless of which personality is dominant. The only difference lies in how she approaches it.
In the girl personality, Altera will show affection.
In the warrior personality, Altera will play with it recklessly or deliberately ignore it.
In the goddess personality, Altera will become kind.
In the stone chamber, what Rozen saw was the pure and delicate side of the girl personality, sometimes mixed with the basic goddess personality. This allowed Rozen to see Altera's gentleness, kindness, calmness, and intellect.
As for the Altera, the fundamental personality that constitutes her is the red warrior personality. Therefore, this Altera has always appeared very ruthless.
However, even if the personality has changed, Altera is still Altera.
She remembers Rozen, who broke into her stone chamber, and even more so, she remembers her decision to lend him her power. She recalls being absolutely dominated by Rozen, with her essence turned into pure records engraved in his soul. She has no complaints about being entirely at his command, just like in the stone chamber.
Despite the different attitude, there still exists a fondness for Rozen in her heart.
This makes Rozen look at Altera, and the somber expression on his face due to Mash's fall finally looks somewhat better.
"I'm sorry, Altera."
Rozen apologized to Altera in this manner.
"I didn't explain the absolute contract with you beforehand, making you become my familiar like this."
This matter is not insignificant.
If considered from a serious perspective, it is tantamount to deception, turning others into tools entirely at one's command, and the nature of it is quite malicious.
If Rozen had explained beforehand, perhaps Altera wouldn't have easily accepted the contract with him, turning her incarnation into Rozen's servant.
"...Indeed, this situation is beyond my expectations."
Altera pondered for a moment, her gaze at Rozen becoming extremely serious.
"Although I am currently in the form of a Heroic Spirit, not matching up to my original self, possessing the nature of destruction and invasion, the fact that you can engrave the records of a Heroic Spirit into your soul, making it your possession, is unheard of even in the distant ages of gods, ancient times, and other civilizations."
Altera's gaze towards Rozen became sharp, as if she wanted to dissect him
"In the past, even if there were ways to use the power of Heroic Spirits, it was at most summoning, corrupting, darkening, synchronizing, and integrating their state. Recording an existence like the Throne of Heroes did, regardless of the civilization, has never happened."
"No, if it's just recording, examples can be found, but having the ability to freely control and use it is another matter."
"Plus, you can jump from this world's Singularity to my stone chamber on the moon and meet me."
"Rorelai Arneet."
"Who are you?"
Attila's tone became aggressive, giving the feeling that she could draw her sword at any moment.
Facing this kind of Altera...
"Compared to me, your origins are quite easy to guess."
As if trying to change the mood, Rozen faced Altera's question and suddenly smiled.
"Leaving aside the circumstances of you in the stone chamber, at least, as the you who is currently active as a Heroic Spirit on Earth, I probably have an idea of your origins."
Upon hearing this, Altera's expression slightly stiffened.
In such a situation...
"————Attila."
Rozen straightforwardly spoke.
"If I'm not mistaken, this is your true name as a Heroic Spirit, right?"
Rozen spoke like this.
Causing Altera's eyes to flicker slightly as she fell into silence.
