A foreigner's journey

The Mountain of the Dead is shaking.

The dark green and almost black fire pillar enveloped Rong Qishi and the evil sword. It could be seen that the evil sword was melting and re-condensing at an incredible speed. Under the control of Rong Qishi, the [Mythical Weapons Catalog] has also become more complete.

Heather stood not far in front of the pillar of fire. She had no intention of interfering. Instead, she rubbed her chin with interest.

At this speed, the evil sword can be recast in less than thirty seconds. For beginners, it is already a very good and even surprising level.

On the other side, the Divine Guards began to evacuate from the top of the Mount of Death in an orderly manner. It was not that they did not want to take back the gods they were guarding from the hands of Rong Qishi, but that both sides of the war were far beyond the scope of ordinary geniuses.

Even Haosong, the most powerful four kings of the Divine Guards, could not survive for a second in front of Rin Qishi, and the others were just killed.

Just do what Sekiro said and leave everything to him.

I have to say that in the three years since Heather came to this world, she has fully developed the design style of the righteous knight. No matter whether it is friend or foe, everyone will praise Heather as "chivalrous and unparalleled". She is the undead mountain god who is supposed to protect the evil sword to the death. The guards did not have any psychological burden for handing over the evil sword and Rong Qishi to Heather.

An old man with gray hair and a wrinkled face bowed slightly to Heather: "I'm sorry, Sir Sekiro, I'll leave it to you to deal with the intruders."

"Well, you should run away quickly. It's no longer safe to leave the area of ​​the Necronomicon Mountains." Heather waved her hand.

The old man saluted again, and then hurriedly left with the support of the team.

Gradually, the spiral fire pillar began to dissipate, and the shape of the evil knife held in Rong Qishi's hand did not change much, but in Heather's eyes, it had completely transformed into a brand new [Evil Knife] from the inside out. .

It's not an exaggeration to say it's a [divine evil sword].

Rong Qishi's face was frighteningly pale at this time. She looked at Heather and was about to speak when her words were interrupted by an uncontrollable cough. Blood foam could even be seen spilling from between her fingers covering her mouth.

Heather waited very quietly for Qin Qishi to calm down and catch his breath, and all the surrounding undead mountain guards had also evacuated. At this time, there were only two super geniuses, Heather and Qin Qishi, on the top of the undead mountain. Eyes facing each other.

Rong Qishi slowly put down her blood-stained hand, letting the blood drip from the corners of her mouth and chin, her cold tone remained the same:

"I have kept you waiting for a long time, Master Heather. I would like to sincerely praise you for your gentlemanly behavior."

"A bad woman with a tough mouth is not a bonus. How long do you have left in your pitiful life? One hour? Half an hour? In my opinion, you will die in ten minutes at most. Wait a little longer and wait a little less. It doesn’t matter to me, it’s just a chance to see the final outcome of a genius who is envied by the gods.”

Heather smiled nonchalantly:

"You originally returned to Japan from that isolated island to help your brother Toshichika, right? Is it worth it to spend all your life now?"

"worth."

With her little blood-stained hands, she pinched the evil knife that fit 100% as if it was made for her naturally. A rare smile appeared on her face:

"You, a willful god like you, have been eyeing Miss Jiu'er from the beginning. My brother and Miss Jiu'er are now inseparable. If you are allowed to continue to wreak havoc on the world, Qihua will not have any means to stop you. Therefore, I am here to personally send you back to Gaotianyuan."

"Although she is a wicked woman, she is very considerate of her family. I was so moved that I almost cried."

Having said that, Heather didn't even bother to wipe the corners of her eyes to show off:

"You think you are confident that you can defeat me after learning the power of [God]? Or does that evil knife give you enough confidence? Well, stop talking nonsense. You don't have much time left. Let us seize the time and enjoy the last moment. Be happy."

"...I take back my previous praise. You are indeed still a nasty perverted god. But you are right. Let us start the final battle as soon as possible."

Qin Qishi raised the evil knife in his hand that was shaped like a kunai and was constantly filled with strong black electricity, and then he thrust it into his chest and penetrated his heart!

The electric current blasted through her delicate and slender body almost instantly, but there was no smell or scorch marks. On the contrary, Qi Shi's vitality was visibly filling up in Heather's field of vision, and her complexion gradually turned rosy from the bloodless pale before.

[Evil Sword·Ku], focusing on "activity", is the most vicious sword among the twelve Shikisaki Kiki variant swords. If used correctly, it can force the body to activate or calm down so that life can continue. At this moment, Rong Qishi used the power of the evil knife to briefly rejuvenate his almost completely exhausted body, and even suppressed the disease for a hundred million!

At the same time, relying on her unimaginable genius, Yan Qishi completed and strengthened the [Mythical Weapon Catalog]. Her [Mythic Weapon Catalog] can now ignore one of the biggest rules [Cooling Time], which means that regardless of How long does it take to materialize a weapon? Once the weapon is cancelled, it can be materialized again immediately. There is no cooling time limit.

"Master Heather, now you are no longer my opponent. Come, let me take you back to Gaotianyuan, to the place where your gods should live forever."

Amid the brilliant electric current, Qi Qishi's mental energy and domineering strength are rising steadily. Coupled with the [Hand Sword Version of Feather Slash] that she learned from Heather, who is stronger than Heather, and the completed and strengthened [Mythical Weapon Catalog], she really should Have absolute confidence.

But there was no panic or anger in Heather's eyes, and she didn't even pull out the knife.

crazy? No, this Susanoo still has a trump card! Yan Qishi's heart sank slightly. Her body temporarily recovered to its peak level and she disappeared from the place in an instant. The next moment, she appeared beside Heather, with her five fingers together like a knife and slashing towards Heather's throat.

The strengthening of the evil sword cannot last long, and the abundance of mental energy and domineering energy is just an illusion, because her [lifespan] has reached its end as fuel, and she must fight quickly.

Snap.

The white and delicate little hands brought out a sharp vacuum chop wave, and before it touched Heather's throat, the wrist was tightly grasped by the big hands, making it impossible to move.

At this time, Yan Qishi felt that the strength in his whole body was rapidly fading away, and the [Evil Knife] on his chest, which was used to replace his heart, was wailing and cracking in fear.

what happened? She couldn't free her wrist from Heather's restraint. When she looked at Heather, she found that Heather was also looking at her.

The two looked at each other.

I saw the corners of Heather's mouth gradually widening. It was a smile that had no kindness or divinity, only pure malice——

"...Good boy, very good. In this way, the biggest shortcoming of the [Mythical Weapon Catalog] will be filled."

Rong Qishi's face quickly turned pale and weak, and he could no longer hold up and collapsed downwards. But Heather was still holding her wrist, as if he was holding her up. Heather hummed and walked forward as if dragging half a bag of potatoes. Qishi was dragged behind her without the ability to resist, dragging a long trail of blood on the ground.

At some point, the evil knife in Qishi's chest had disappeared, leaving only a hole where blood gushed out.

"You...what did you do?" Qi Shi's voice was as thin as a gossamer. She was about to die, but she was unwilling to do so. He had clearly achieved a level even better than that of a god, so why did he suddenly lose all his power?

"What a stupid question. You used my power to attack me, and I just took it back. Isn't it difficult to understand?"

Heather's voice sounded far and near to Qishi, like an echo reverberating in the mountains.

From the very beginning, Heather did not fight Nanami with a real level of power. His power has surpassed the national level and has begun to move towards the star level. If he uses full firepower, the entire Japan can be defeated by him in half an hour. How could it be possible to sink into the sea and compete with Rong Qishi on a hill like this? The absolute upper limit of Rin Qishi's power is fixed by this world, or in other words, by her own body.

Heather's goal in finding Rong Qishi is to use her 'Jianji Gu' to complete and strengthen the [Mythical Weapon Catalog], and then use the concept of forced recycling to strengthen herself.

"This is impossible……"

"Normally, it's really impossible, but who makes you unable to see through my [concept]? The power of [concept] is absolutely dominant. By the way, thank you for your [evil knife], which saved me The work of recasting.”

Electricity flashed and the evil sword floated in front of Heather, then turned into lightning and dissipated.

Even the evil sword... Qi Shi's eyes have begun to blur. In the end, his whole life has been played by these gods. His last struggle is just a joke in their eyes, right?

So unwilling...

Seven flowers...

Snapped! Qishi was thrown to the ground casually. At this time, Heather was already standing on the edge of the cliff at the top of Mount Necromancer, and Qishi was lying paralyzed at his feet.

"In the end, you still can't die as a [human], poor kid."

Heather squatted in front of Qishi, looking at the woman who was as angry as a gossamer and about to die. Even though his heart was cold, he couldn't help but feel a trace of regret.

If the world that Rong Qishi lives in is a normal world, and if her body is not overwhelmed by 100 million diseases, then she may really be qualified to become her compatriot and a foreigner. But without awakening [concept], she was trapped by the world and her knowledge. Even though she tried her best to fight back, she was still destroyed by herself, an outsider.

Although the goal of this trip has been achieved, Heather decided to invite Rong Qishi again when she thought of this.

Such an outstanding person and such an outstanding knife should not die here without dignity and obscurity.

"Ruan Qishi, I don't know if you can still hear me now. But I still want to extend my invitation to you again——"

Heather stretched out her hand to Rong Qishi, who was lying motionless on the ground:

"Become my [Knife], and come with me on my journey through the heavens and the world."

Qishi remained motionless, and the fire of life had begun to flow from her body.

Suddenly, Heather saw her lips moving slightly as she silently recited her brother's name - [Seven Flowers].

"Don't you want to witness with your own eyes that Shichika ascends to the strongest throne in Japan and makes the Void Sword style stand at the top of swordsmen again? Your brother still needs you, and I need you too!"

In a daze, Qi Shi seemed to see her mother's plaintive words to her in the past - [Poor Qi Shi, you shouldn't have been born, you... are too much]

My mother has always hated herself, saying she was pitiful, but actually she wanted to strangle herself to death. No, she actually tried it, tried it on her infant self. Maybe he inherited this evil from his mother?

The mother's face was like falling into the water of stones, and gradually changed into the appearance of the father. The father said cruel words to himself with a painful expression - [Qishi, I can't teach you anything, Xu Dao Ryu doesn't need you, I...I don’t need you anymore]

He fought with all his strength for his father, and had no complaints about being thrown into isolation on that desert island, but his father wanted to kill himself and his biological daughter just because his talent was too amazing?

No one needs me, no one wants me alive, not even the gods and the world think I am superfluous. But Shichika...my brother...he thinks I'm still a [human].

I want to be recognized, I want to be needed!

Yan Qishi's eyes struggled to gather their energy again, and he looked at Heather, his voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible——

【Do you need me? 】

"I need you."

[I have failed as a human being, so can I make a good knife? 】

"You can, you are the best knife."

Tears fell down the corners of Rong Qishi's eyes. Whether it was deceiving oneself or others, or struggling to survive, Rong Qishi suddenly felt that life was not so boring, and he wanted to continue living... Even if I was following such a bad and wanton god, I wanted to live.

The slender little hand stained with blood slowly lifted up tremblingly, and finally intertwined with Heather's big hand.

"Please give me your advice, Lord Heather."

"Welcome, Qishi."

On that day, people claimed to have seen the light of the gods in the sky above Mount Death.
