To put it bluntly, the reason Wood died was 50% due to the instigator, the god, 30% due to the perpetrator, Alsterd, and at least 20% due to Rudy.
In a sense, both Rudy and Alster were objects of divine design, the only difference being that Alster was the knife that committed the crime, while Rudy was the unwitting one who pushed Wood toward the blade.
Rudy also noticed that after Senis learned the whole story, although she didn't blame him, the way she looked at him was noticeably more distant, which made Rudy feel even more heartbroken.
But Rudy had no complaints about this, because he himself believed that Wood died because of him.
Although they are twin brothers, Senis has always shown more love and care for Rudy than Wood since childhood.
On one hand, they were infants; Wood was cared for daily by Lilia, while Rudy was cared for by Senis.
And because she herself was a mage, Senis did indeed favor Rudy, who had shown stronger magical talent from a young age.
Even after Rudy and Wood grew up, it was Wood, as the younger brother, who left home first to gain experience.
It wasn't until Paul and Lilia's affair came to light that Senis realized with shame that she had been neglecting her second son, Wood.
It's no wonder that Wood preferred to spend time with Lilia when he was young; perhaps this was his own failure as a mother.
The child was mature in mind and extremely sensitive. He seemed indifferent to everything, but in reality, he cared about everyone in the family.
The story involves Lilia and Paul, Aisha and Noren, her conflict with her mother Claire Latorrea, and even Rudy's pride as an older brother, which leads him to conceal his strength.
These are small things that even Senis, as the mother of the family, doesn't think Wood could do as well as Rudy.
The boy always smiled politely at others. Despite possessing exceptional talent and strength, he was never arrogant. Even his demanding mother praised Wood highly and even wanted him to inherit the Latoria family and become the head of the family.
But the more outstanding Wood was, the more heartbroken Senis felt.
That excellent, obedient child who always thought of his family was now a cold, lifeless corpse in her arms. How could Senis possibly accept this?
Previously in the Maze Runner, Wood nearly died at the hands of the Hydra while protecting her and Norren. Now, to save his brother, he has chosen to die a second time…
It can be said that every time Wood encountered danger, it was not because of himself, but because of his family.
After exchanging information about the gods with Rudy, Orstide left, leaving the Grellat family in a somber atmosphere.
Wood's death was a greater blow to Senis. For the next few days, Senis didn't utter a single word, and her mental state greatly worried Paul and Rudy.
Rudy wanted to comfort Senis, but she silently kicked him out of the room.
Wood's remains were preserved by Rudy using ice magic, in preparation for taking them back to his hometown for burial. However, before that, they had to return to the Holy Kingdom of Milis to retrieve Norren and Aisha.
When the two little ones learned of their brother Wood's death, they cried and made a scene for several days, and because of this, they harbored a grudge against their other brother, Rudy.
They believed that if Wood hadn't gone to meet Rudy and had listened to him, he wouldn't have died.
After Wood's death, Rudy was saddened to find that his family's attitude towards him had changed drastically, but he had nothing to say about it. After all, if he hadn't believed in "the gods and men," Wood would not have suffered this undeserved disaster.
Rudy felt powerless and weak, so after saying goodbye to his family, he embarked on his journey to the magic academy.
He needs to improve his strength as quickly as possible, not only to defeat the god and avenge himself, but also to find a way to resurrect Wood.
In the past, this would have been nothing short of a pipe dream, but this is another world.
Since magic exists, anything is possible. After all, time travelers and time travel have already appeared, so what's impossible about the resurrection of the dead?
In the world of One Piece, Wood slowly opened his eyes and woke up in his bed once again.
Wood Grellatt's twelve years seemed like a dream, yet those experiences were so vivid, as if they had actually happened.
"Just like the first life simulation, this time there are still many regrets."
"System, if I were given another chance to simulate life, would I have the opportunity to return to the world I simulated before?"
Compared to the first "Zero Tsukaima World", this "Mushoku Tensei" world brought Wood more regrets.
Because of his previous lack of understanding of this world, Wood didn't even know who had ultimately outmaneuvered him. If he had the chance to go back, he would personally kill that so-called "human god".
Wood hadn't expected the usually "mute" system to answer his question, but to his surprise, the system gave a fairly comprehensive answer to his inquiry.
Returning to the previously simulated world is not entirely impossible; there are generally two possible scenarios.
As is well known, when Wood conducted his life simulation, the world he simulated was randomly selected from among thousands of worlds.
In other words, if the world he draws is still "jobless reincarnation", then he can naturally go back.
However, the chances of this happening are extremely low, and if the simulation is repeated, the timeline will be reset, and Wood's identity may not be the original Wood Grellatt.
As for the second possibility, it is the case that it is affected by the inherent factors of the simulated world.
Although they are simulated worlds, those worlds are real, existing in another dimension, and will continue to function normally when Wood leaves.
If someone uses abilities such as "resurrection" or "soul summoning" to bring Wood Grellatt back to life, the system will automatically determine that Wood Grellatt is still alive, and therefore his life simulation can continue.
After hearing the system's acceptance, Wood basically gave up on the first scenario, because the odds of that were even lower than winning the lottery.
The second possibility is worth considering, since it's a magical world and resurrection isn't entirely impossible, especially since Rudy is a reincarnated being with cheat codes.
If he had the chance to return to "Mushoku Tensei," Wood vowed that the stronger he would be next time, he would definitely crush the Dragon God and the Human God.
"Ding, the character you simulated has died. This simulation of life in all worlds has ended. You have obtained the following inherent abilities of Wood Grellatt."
Swordsmanship: Sword God Style, Northern God Style, Water God Style
Magic: Fire Magic (Emperor-level), Water Magic (Emperor-level), Healing Magic (King-level), Wind Magic (King-level), Earth Magic (King-level)
Because you have learned magic, your mental strength and willpower have been greatly enhanced.
"The simulation of life in all worlds has ended. In addition to the fixed simulation character rewards, the host can choose one of the following rewards to obtain."
1. The Magic Eye – The Eye of Foresight
2. Nine-Headed Dragon Body - Magic Resistance
3. The sword "Dragon's Fang" possesses magic-guiding attributes. (It can be grafted onto the swords "Heavenly Wither" and "Morning Dew" to improve their quality.)
The inherent reward is the power that the simulated Wood Grellatt learns himself, while the random reward is the power he draws from random encounters.
Looking at the three reward options that appeared in front of him, Wood was disappointed that the abilities of the Dragon God or the Human God did not appear, but the three abilities that appeared were not too weak.
The first ability, the Mystic Eyes—the Eyes of Foresight—is a power possessed by Rudy, which is said to have been obtained from a loli who called herself the Demon Emperor.
The specific effect is to consume magic power and briefly foresee the future a few seconds in advance, which is equivalent to the special "Observation Haki" of Kakashi and others.
Just by hearing the effect, you know that this ability is incredibly powerful. And unlike Katakuri's passive ability which is triggered occasionally, this Mystic Eye is an active skill!
To be honest, Wood really wanted to choose this ability, but he also needed the other two rewards.
In comparison, the power to foresee the short-term future was the first thing he ruled out.
Because his Observation Haki has been honed to a very high level, it is not impossible for him to be able to make brief predictions about the future in the future.
In other words, while the Mystic Eyes' abilities are powerful, they are redundant.
As for the magic resistance of the nine-headed dragon's body, it actually tempted Wood quite a bit. Although magic could not exist in the pirate world, there were quite a few Devil Fruits of all kinds.
Leaving aside Paramecia and Zoan-type Devil Fruit users, most Logia-type Devil Fruit users' techniques are actually elemental attacks.
If one possesses magic resistance at the level of the Nine-Headed Dragon, while not completely immune to Logia-type Devil Fruit abilities, it should be able to mitigate most of the damage.
As for the third reward, it's even easier to understand: it completely transfers the attributes of Wood Grellatt's previous sword to his current swords, "Heaven's Dew" and "Morning Dew."
Wood first ruled out the option of the Eye of the Prophet. As for the remaining two rewards, after hesitating for a moment, Wood finally chose the third one.
In other words, the attributes of the original sword "Dragon's Fang" were grafted onto the current Heavenly Dew and Morning Dew.
Some might say that Wood simply chose the least useful of the three reward options, but it was a decision Wood made after careful consideration.
The third option's reward might seem the least useful at first glance, but it's exactly what Wood needs most.
The power system in the One Piece world is very inclusive; even magic can be used in this world. However, the key point is that there is no such thing as a magic wand in this world!
Wood can cast spells of a certain strength even without using a wand, but he cannot cast high-level spells.
Furthermore, in the "Mushoku Tensei" world, Wood also mastered an advanced version of "Hyakki Mitsurugi-ryu," which combines swordsmanship and magic.
If materials with magical properties are lacking, the newly developed attribute sword will naturally be stillborn, and even his simulated gains in the "Jobless Reincarnation" world will be greatly reduced.
After all, without a wand, his magic is at most at the level of intermediate magic, which is no threat in the world of One Piece.
Chapter 308 The Founding of Wood Arms Company
Furthermore, Wood later learned that the magic resistance bonus from the Hydra had a side effect.
That is, after gaining this ability, although magic immunity increases, one will be as "fragile" as a hydra.
In other words, the body's resistance to elements is increased, but physical defense is reduced to some extent.
If the second reward is the hydra's absurd "regeneration" ability, then Wood would probably forgo magic and choose the second reward.
But since it's a magic resistance ability with side effects, Wood has no reason to hesitate.
After Wood selected the third reward, two beams of light suddenly shot out from the system interface in front of him and landed directly on the two long swords he had placed on his bedside table.
When Wood picked up the Heavenly Dry Sword and drew his sword, he could clearly feel the unusually active elemental energy in the air.
Furthermore, because of the combined attributes, the current "Heavenly Dew" and "Morning Dew" can not only be used as magic wands, but have also become harder and sharper!
The Heavenly Dry Blade was originally only among the "Fifty-One Fine and Quick Blades," but Wood now feels that in every aspect, it should be comparable to the "Twenty-One Great and Quick Blades."
As for "Asagao," which was originally a Great Grade Sword, although it did not quite reach the level of a "Supreme Great Grade Sword," it should be close enough, at least much stronger than an ordinary Great Grade Sword.
At this moment, on the Dark Pill, looking at the captain's room, which had been quiet for nearly a month, Robin stared blankly with a worried expression.
Previously, when preparing for the "Multiverse Life Simulation", Wood had given instructions that he wanted to stay in his room to cultivate and that no one was allowed to disturb him, otherwise they would be expelled from the pirate crew.
