Chapter 113 Coward
Chapter 113 Coward
That night, Orsted and I came to the Red Dragon Mountains.
At the bottom of the Red Dragon Valley.
There is a small hole in the wall on the road where blue mushrooms and moss grow luxuriantly.
It is about one meter high and is a little curved, so from the outside it looks like a dead end.
There, a huge magic circle was emitting light.
By the way, I got my staff from the [Dragon God Hole] in Minglong Mountain in the Red Dragon Mountain Range, which means that at that time, Orsted had already conquered one of the three most difficult mazes in the world.
Okay, back to the topic, there is a person lying in the magic circle.
"Well, are you here?"
It is the demon king Badigondi.
His body was divided into several parts and sealed in other places in the valley.
The main body is here, and if the other seals are not removed, this barrier cannot be broken. And the barrier is operated by the magic characteristics of Badigondi's body.
It is also amplified by the artifact, which means that unless the artifact is destroyed, the barrier will not disappear. However, the artifact cannot be destroyed, so it can last forever.
This is a barrier magic specially created by Pergius, a god-level barrier developed to seal the devil.
It is said that even Orsted had no means of escape.
"I'm sorry, Badigondi. After all, you are the apostle of the human god, so I can only do this."
"It's too restrictive, can't you make it a little bigger?"
It was indeed very confining, and it was extremely uncomfortable in this place. Badigondi was not killed, although I could have turned him into ashes by burning him with my flames.
We've been to parties together, we've been classmates, and I've even attended Rudy's wedding. I truly consider him my friend.
I feel a little reluctant to kill him.
"I'm sorry, but if it's any bigger, your body's magic power won't be able to handle it."
"Then there's no way"
Badigundi said this and then burst into laughter.
"So, why are you here? You're not going to host a banquet with my beauty as a side dish, are you?"
"No, I just want to ask if you have ever considered abandoning the human god."
Badigondi was stunned for a moment, then immediately burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! Impossible!"
"Why? I remember the rules of the Undead Demon Clan..."
"Xinsu, you must not misunderstand. This is not the rule of the Undead Demon Clan, but Atuofei's own rule."
"So, have you sworn allegiance to that man-god guy?"
"Not right either"
Badigundi straightened up, shook his head, and then looked nonchalant.
"I don't like fighting. I like traveling, drinking, chatting up women who pass by, hugging, getting spanked by my fiancée, making friends, laughing, singing, and watching tired people fall asleep with a satisfied look on their faces.
This time it was the request of the Human God. It was the Human God's credit that my Chishilica was resurrected in this era. He asked me to repay his kindness in the past, and I agreed to it on the condition that it would only happen once. Now, that one time is over. I will not stand on the side of anyone again. If it is a fight, you should just seal me up."
After listening to what he said, I kind of wanted to just let him out.
Even though he is an apostle of the human god, Badigundi’s promise is reliable, this is the principle.
Of course, there is nothing in this world that can defeat me except this thing that kicked me out by force. Therefore, it doesn't matter even if I let the tiger go back to the mountain.
"When you finish fighting with the human god, you will naturally let me out, right?"
Seeing my annoyance, Badigundi grinned.
"yes"
Even Orsted nodded. After all, as long as they defeated the human god, there would be no reason for Badigondi to pay attention.
“Only a hundred years later”
"Isn't this going to be quick? I'll just stay here quietly. If possible, can you say hello to my fiancée for me?"
"Okay, I'll support her for a while, so I guess that counts as stealing her away."
"Why are you so vindictive? Never mind. It's all my fault. I apologize to you first. Besides, you have something that blocks people and gods, which makes it impossible for him to carry out many of his plans, so he has a strong sense of defeat."
"Defeat?"
"You've completely demotivated the Human God. If you didn't have that shielding device, he would have turned against you long ago. However, ever since you put on this device, the Human God's future has been dark. Even the last ray of hope is to find this artifact."
"Do you want to take off your armband and see him one last time?"
When he pointed, I couldn't help but touch it. There are two, one is ultraviolet, and the other is to block future vision.
"Aren't you afraid that I can locate him over there and pull him out directly?"
"That's true, but humans and gods can't see you, so I can't see you either. Maybe it won't even take a hundred years."
"Then you just hope that the coward Human God dares to come to me. See you next time." Orsted turned around after saying this.
"Really? You're leaving so soon, take care."
I followed Orsted's footsteps, turned around and left.
Only Orsted, Perkius, and I know about this sealed place. I sent many members of the Shadow Corps to blend into the shadows of the valley, and anyone who approaches will be driven away.
If you force your way in, you will be killed.
. . . . . .
The next night, I took off the armband.
So when I came to my senses, I found myself in a white place.
This is the first time I enter this space.
This was the second time I had entered a white, empty place since I came to this world. With a clear mind, I immediately wrote down the coordinates.
The dark body, the sparkling gems giving off a mechanical feel, and the whole body is full of energy, but it is actually just an illusion.
"Hi, little sister"
Mosaic aggregate, man and god.
However, the human-god in front of him looked a little strange. His body was torn into pieces, and his limbs were sewn together by magic circles. He also seemed to be bound by translucent chains.
“I was killed.”
By whom?
"Look over there"
I turned around and looked over there. There was a group of people there, all of whom I didn't recognize. Strange men, strange women, strange demons, strange tribes.
But there are also people I know.
For example, Orsted, I don’t know the rest at all. I’m not there, nor is there anyone else I know.
There were two young men who seemed to be from the same country as Qixing, and there was also a swordsman who looked very much like Alice. In short, I didn't know them.
Everyone looked towards me.
At first I thought there were only these people, but more and more people appeared behind Orsted.
Luo Qixi? What? It's still the same after a hundred years. Rudy is not here, it seems he is dead.
Sylphy should be in her thirties, but she is actually a hundred years old.
Finally, they all disappeared, talking and laughing.
"They teamed up to play with me, cutting me into pieces and sealing me up like this. They said that if I died, the remaining human world might also be destroyed."
Will it be destroyed?
"How would I know? After all, I have never died."
That's true. I am the only one who knows what happens after death. It's endless darkness, without any five senses, and I can't feel anything. It's like nothingness, and also like sleeping, except without dreams.
"How terrible, but is this the ending you expected? I was allowed to survive in order for the world to continue. I can't see the world, can't talk to others, and from now on I can only stare at a vast expanse of white, empty, boundless scenery."
I don’t know about this.
All I want is to die meaningfully and return to my homeland. If I were a little greedier, I would just hope that everyone would be happy, but that would be a world where I would be the only one hurt.
"Your greed, why can't you have me, so that I don't have to be cut into pieces"
You have offended too many people. Even I can't stop their resentment when you deceive them. To be honest, it would be great if you could be a guy who helps others.
If you could help Orsted more along the way, maybe he wouldn't let you become like this in the end, and he might even let you become the second Miris god to succeed me.
“Is that so…I see…”
I can't see the expression of the human god.
However, the voice did not sound like hatred, but rather full of sadness.
People and gods were moved to tears.
"I hate you!"
None of my business, you weirdo.
Consciousness was interrupted.
. . . . . .
When I woke up, I found myself lying on the bed.
There are also many strange memories in my mind. It may be a prank by humans and gods, allowing me to see what will happen fifty years later.
Rudy died at the age of seventy-four, a natural death.
Alice was seventy-six years old. She had just finished running and sword practice, and when she came back, she fell on the bed with a bang and never woke up again.
Rudy cried for three days that day, but later with the help of the human god, his memory dissipated a little and Rudy survived. In fact, it was just a last burst of light, which was one of the few kindnesses of the human god.
Gilene, Ariel, and many others died due to lifespan issues.
The Seven Stars developed a magic circle to return, Miris became the only country in the world, and statues of me were carved all over the world.
Yes, yes, the Holy Kingdom of Milis actually has a Son of God. She helped Senis in the Cardinal’s office and also knew that Senis had become the Son of God.
So he didn't become a disabled person at all, but rather possessed the power of the Son of God.
Cliff and Zanoba also have families of their own.
Noren and Aisha, generally speaking, it seems that only Aisha is married, and that man seems to be Rudy's son, so let's not talk about it for now.
Ariel, Gilena, Elinalize, Roxy, and even Benedict never married in their lives. I have doubts about the sexual orientation of these people.
Although Ariel, as the queen, must leave offspring, she only asked me for a mimic body.
It is said that he could be an heir, and he does not care much about state affairs, because he is a vassal state of Milis and a major grain producer, so he goes to hang out with Mimicry every few days.
Linia and Prusena went back to be clan leaders at the same time, although they had a fight for the position of clan leader before, and they calmed down after I found them and gave them a beating.
Everything is going in a good direction, but why does my heart hurt so much?
pat-
The warm liquid slid down his face, and the suffocating feeling blocked his heart, unable to be vented.
He was gasping for breath and his throat could not make any sound.
I wanted to scream, I wanted to roar, but I couldn't make any sound due to the extreme emotional shock.
No, no, no, no, no, I don’t want this to happen.
Inject blood, yes, inject blood, and you will gain eternal life, immortality, and become a vampire.
At this moment, a warm touch caressed my face.
"Birth, aging, illness and death are normal. For humans, immortality may be a curse. Is dying of old age the final chapter?"
My throat was finally able to make a sound, and I looked at Ellie in front of me.
"I, but I...I don't want to...lose everything if I die..."
"But, eternal life, you will be very happy at first, but after a hundred years, a thousand years, your memory will become confused, and your loved ones will gradually die. Isn't that a curse?"
"Then... can I escape?"
"Of course, it's all up to you to decide, and I, we, are born for you?"
In the following days, I tried my best to cherish every day and every second, but time was like sand in my hands, constantly flowing out through my fingers.
Without the interference of humans and gods, every place has been developing rapidly during this period, just for the war a hundred years later.
Every day, I feel very anxious. No, it cannot be said to be anxious.
I gave the keys to Eshbia to those I knew, while I hid myself from the world and stayed in a corner doing nothing.
Like a rat in a gutter.
My clone is in charge down there, and for the same reason, no one can tell if she's really me.
"Is this really necessary?" Noah said calmly.
"Well, that's it. Anyway, there are passages back and forth, and I don't want to see them die in front of me. A coward should act like a coward."
I don’t know what to do, and I don’t want to understand what to do, so let’s just relax.
I came to various spaces occupied by white doors. I didn't look at them specifically, nor did I want to pay attention to them. I didn't even care that the doors were a little damaged.
I pushed the door open and walked in.
The scene in front of me seemed to be wrapped in the starry sky, but the starry sky in front of me was somewhat fake.
How should I put it? It's as if the stars were deliberately carved there, and somewhat like the pattern of a magic circle.
There is nowhere else to go, only a super large continent in front of you.
"Ugh——!"
The starry sky was shattered, like a big hole in a mirror, and there looked like a vortex inside.
A huge whale that was shimmering with light and looked like the Milky Way emerged from it. The universe was like an ocean, allowing it to move freely in this world.
The whale's target was not the girl; it glided aimlessly and dived down from above.
The destination is the continent below, and on the continent there is an island floating in the sky.
This creature I had never seen before made me curious, so I followed it quietly, wanting to see where it would go.
On the Sky Island.
The girl with white hair like a waterfall looked at the starry sky with no expression, and her eyes were shining with golden light.
"The fifth one, the Advent One?"
