Chapter 1171 Cassius tells a story(2/2)
At least the food would not taste any worse than the black bread Bulcaisso had saved.
Cassius took a sip of wine, and then stuffed a piece of steak that had been there for an unknown amount of time directly into his mouth.
Then he continued with a satisfied smile.
"When a name becomes an origin, it will have power.
This is probably the reason why those archangels need a name.
After all, at that time they could call each other "hope", "wisdom" or "courage".
But they have never done so.
In contrast, the same goes for demons.
I don’t know when things like names started to have power.
It's just that this power will not jump out to help you when you are fighting.
But one thing is, as long as a name is still being praised, the power will always exist.
When Hyrab gave him the name "Bulkess" at that time, there may be some reason that I don't know.
That’s why I said you should ask Hairab about these things.”
Cassius paused again when he said this.
He took a swig of wine and put a piece of steak in his mouth.
"Anyway, it's like you found out later.
When Bulcaisor exploded on the Holy Mountain of Arreat, he was dragged outside by the demon.
By the time he arrived at the Holy Mountain of Arreat, well, by then it was already the Great Pit of Arreat.
He spent a long, long time cleaning up the demons around him.
Then he took Kalju and Kor, who were also survivors, to start the road of rebuilding the Holy Mountain.
By the way, you'd better not think that Calcio is of the same generation as Bulcasso, he is much older.
It's just that he is too strong or too lucky.
That's why he died on the way to build the Holy Mountain of Harrogas.
If you were to find a savage who lived long enough, Kalju would be on this list."
Cassius's topic went a little further, but Rorschach had no intention of reminding him.
People who listen to stories always have to be patient.
And this is not a story that everyone is familiar with, every part of it is unfamiliar.
Although Cassius's way of telling it is not necessarily very interesting.
But Rorschach didn't stay here just to hear an interesting story.
"The reason why Bulkesso was able to rebuild a holy mountain with barbarians is not only because he is strong enough.
It wasn't just that the few remaining savages believed in him.
You should be able to understand this. It is not easy to trust others unconditionally.
It can even be said to be very difficult.”
Cassius shook his head.
It seems that the topic of "trust" feels heavy.
"The most fundamental reason why he was able to do this, besides being very powerful at the time, was because of his name.
You will remember that the barbarians occasionally cried out 'Bulkessor protects me' when fighting.
Although most of the time this war cry is just a slogan, this unconscious war cry can also be regarded as a kind of prayer.
The object of prayer is the existence of ‘Bulkess’.
The reason why the Holy Mountain can appear here is because this simple prayer made the savages and this name form a connection.
It also tells the homeless ancestral spirits who lost the Immortal King at that time that Bulkatho still exists!
At least that's what I feel."
Cassius smiled.
He didn't get to know Bulcaisuo only after the establishment of the Holy Mountain of Harrogas.
They also existed on the Holy Mountain of Arreat, but there were still a lot of barbarians at that time.
Therefore, these ancestral spirits rarely wander around on the Holy Mountain of Arreat.
The same goes for most guys like Kahn.
"You have obviously omitted a lot of the adventure and dedication associated with Bulkeso.
But these are not the things I value most.
If the name Bulcaisso is so important, why didn't I see a lot of barbarians named Bulcaisu on the Holy Mountain?"
Rorschach asked.
This is a great question!
If the name "Bulkessor" could even connect the blood and original beliefs of all barbarians.
Then Rorschach's idea is to have most savages be called this name.
Although the management will definitely appear chaotic, this can be regarded as diversified investment, right?
As long as there are still barbarians named "Bulkess" alive, it will be possible to rebuild the Holy Mountain with this name!
In this way, wouldn't the barbarians not have to worry about being cut off?
"Will you call your name in the middle of a fight?"
Cassius asked somewhat strangely.
Rorschach shook his head!
Of course he would not shout "Rorschach protect me" during the battle.
"Since you don't know how to do it, why do you think that the name 'Bulkasso' can be used casually by others?"
Cassius said mockingly.
"Rorschach, when someone calls you, you will hear and then see the person calling you.
So what about ten people calling you at the same time? What about a hundred people? Or even thousands, and then there are people you can’t even count?”
Cassius said.
"I believe your will is strong enough, but I don't believe you can identify those who really need your help among the countless voices calling you.
The same goes for Bulkesso.
Although what we know is that Bulkesso fought with Hailab for a long time in order to get a new name.
But I'm more convinced that they didn't spend that time beating up Hyrab.
It's that Bulcasso was undergoing some kind of test, and he just succeeded in the end."
Cassius said his guess!
Some things may be different from the truth even if they are told by someone who has experienced them personally!
After all, people are always good at processing a little bit in the process of paraphrasing.
Whether it’s to make it more beneficial to you or to add more storytelling to what he says!
Cassius is a barbarian who likes to doubt, but he never turns his doubts into questions.
He doesn't like to talk about these things, he just thinks about them in his heart.
"Are these the truth?"
Rorschach asked.
"If you want the truth, you should call Bulcasso and Hailab together to ask about what happened back then.
Then judge the truth from the expressions of the two of them which may be almost identical."
Cassius put the empty jar aside and ate the last piece of steak.
"Rorschach, is the story I told the truth?
Don’t you want to wonder if I processed something?
If I heard such a story, I would definitely ask for some details.
The more details there are, the harder it is to hide a lie."
Cassius took a deep look at Rorschach, and he seemed to have said a lot.
But none of it is stated explicitly.
