Silla could only tremble in panic, and kept saying no, no and no.

Suddenly her legs gave way and she fell to the ground, helpless and crying.

She knew that what she saw could never be described.

Because if you say it... if you say it...

"Ahem." A heavy cough sounded, and a dark stain of blood spilled from the corner of Isaac's mouth. He didn't care at all. A decent appearance was no longer something he should have.

He looked at Silla, and there was no longer the hysterical madness in his eyes.

A kind old man extended his hand.

He gently placed it on the top of Silla’s head, and said in a soft tone, “Silla, tell me.”

"But...but..."

Isaac smiled and shook his head. This slight movement made him cough again, and blood soaked his collar.

"Let me tell you, I haven't had a sweet dream for a long time..." he said.

Silla raised her red eyes, "You..."

Isaac was quite helpless, "You can't let me order you."

"No... no need."

Sheila readjusted her emotions.

The hallucination only lasted for ten minutes, but it seemed like a lifetime. Sheila had a beautiful dream.

Mild weather and clear skies.

On the neat streets, the demihuman children ran with laughter on the streets.

Their parents stood behind their children with unstoppable smiles on their faces.

Every now and then, a child falls and their parents cheer him on.

And in the distance.

All the demihumans live together in peace and contentment.

Happiness and warmth enveloped her deeply.

While enjoying herself, she raised her hand and looked into the distance.

A moment of astonishment.

Various races live on such a street, greeting each other kindly, and discussing the fact that Demon King-chan is coming to Heaton City for a public performance.

So...who is Demon King-chan?

Confused, she turned around and saw the huge floor-to-ceiling windows decorated in the restaurant next to her.

Reflecting her figure.

She was wearing a pure white dress.

The ugly scars caused by becoming a mercenary in the past were openly exposed.

And the long sword at her waist, which made her feel more secure and never took it off even when sleeping, had disappeared long ago.

Instead, there's a delicate little satchel embroidered with a cute cat's head.

Flustered, at a loss, and insecure, she now wants to find her sword.

Until a person passing by said enviously, "I'll go, you're so handsome with the scars on your body!"

At this moment, no more panic, no more at a loss.

Before her brain could react, her body had reacted in a way that she couldn't believe.

"Not...not that handsome."

The shyness of a girl filled her words.

And after she came to her senses, she looked at herself in the mirror.

Like a beautiful dream, she fell into it.

Enjoying all the good things.

After returning home, the pink and girly decoration made her toes curl up. It was so... such a shameful decoration...

No more cold weapons, no more simple and crude decoration.

Night falls.

She was wearing her favorite white dress.

Slowly walk to the terrace on the second floor and look out.

Children were running around the streets carrying various snacks.

People in love kiss each other in public.

The old people stayed in their own homes, and the old man took the trouble to refute the old woman's various objections.

Sheila couldn’t help but laugh.

At this moment she suddenly realized that she had had a beautiful dream.

All people...are living happily and living for themselves.

Finally, she fell to her knees on the ground, tears streaming from her eyes uncontrollably, and she murmured hoarsely, "None of this is true..."

It's like a fairy tale bubble.

I woke up from the dream, and the dream was broken.

In the silence, Isaac said nothing.

He just touched Sheila's head gently, like a kind old man, comforting the younger generation.

Eyes that were originally empty and lifeless.

A glimmer of light appeared and would not dissipate.

And his face, which was full of wrinkles like shriveled tree bark, also showed a happy smile.

Levi stood up and watched everything silently.

This is the card he played - [Bright Future]

Even he did not expect that the illusion that Sheila fell into in order to delay time would become a crucial card in this transaction.

Unintentionally planting willows and willows...

Levi smiled.

He is not a heinous bastard. He wants to carry out his great love and unswervingly spread it throughout the world.

Since silence.

Levi spoke, "Let's put our deal aside for a while."

"Mr. Isaac, why don't you talk about another deal first, with Alyssa... no... with all the demi-humans you helped... nor..."

He said, "Heton City...or looking further afield...a deal you negotiated with all the demihumans."

Isaac looked at Levi again.

Levi said with a smile, "As an old guy who should have died a long time ago, he can't always protect his children in his arms. This is doting."

"Yeah..." Isaac smiled, even though he smiled ugly and coughed from time to time, "But if I really let go, they can..."

Levi shook his head, "You are a human, not an animal-eared girl with cute ears and a big tail."

Isaac was obviously stunned by Levi's metaphor.

After a long pause, he looked at Alyssa and said, "You have grown up."

He said, "You already know how to refute me."

He continued, "When you proved to Levi that I wanted to kill him, I suddenly felt that you were not a traitor."

"You are refuting me, using your actual actions to refute something I did wrong."

"I asked you to kill him in order to judge your loyalty." He shook his head, "I knew a long time ago that you saw many mistakes and corrected them for me gently."

He couldn't help but laugh at himself.

"I was worried that you would escape my control and you would go back to the sufferings of the past."

"But I didn't realize..."

"Before you know it, I've dragged you into another misery."

"You never escaped from it."

In Alyssa's sobbing mood, Isaac said, "I'm sorry."

Regardless of the collapsed emotions of Sheila and Alyssa, the stubborn old man spoke seriously.

"But...it's still not my time to die."

"Mr. Levi," he said regretfully, "my death will make them suffer again."

"I can only die if I live until they can truly stand alone."

He is like a stubborn old man. No matter what you say or do, I just won't listen, and I won't listen to the bastard chanting sutras, "Your weight is not heavy enough!"

Li Wei's mentality was a little bad. He nodded and looked at this guy, "It's already like this, so hurry up and die to make me happy!"

Isaac hummed proudly, "Watching your opponent incompetent and furious is really the most fun thing you want to see when trading."

"You are an old man with a bad personality!" Levi scolded directly.

Isaac was not to be outdone, "I've seen it a long time ago, you are just a freshman."

"You are shameless!" Levi replied.

"You rely on your youth to bully the elderly." Isaac retorted decisively.

"You pollute the soil when you are alive, and waste the air when you are dead!" Levi scolded angrily.

Isaac took a deep breath and cursed viciously, "You deserve to be a street lamp pendant!"

Levi immediately retorted, "Be careful as I pour boiling water on your money tree!"

"Then just wait, I'll go straight to you and start rumors about you!" Isaac replied.

For a moment, Silla and Alyssa, who were crying until they couldn't stop crying, were dumbfounded.

Seeing the two people scolding each other more and more, they felt that it was inappropriate for them to continue crying.

Lilith also almost suffered from social idiot syndrome.

Do you need to help Levi?

But after sifting through all the words in her mind, she found that she only dared to curse in a low voice - you are a big bad guy.

Zofia, who is ultimately the head of the family, just can’t stand it anymore.

She walked directly to Levi who rolled up his sleeves and was about to rush forward to fight Isaac.

A fist hit him on the head.

Then he glared at Isaac fiercely.

For an instant.

The two of them were instantly at odds.

I'm scared.

"Ahem... If I were decades younger, young man, you would never be able to scold me." Isaac said stubbornly.

Levi sneered, "You can only bark like a dog."

A gurgling sound came from Zofia's raised fist.

When the two heard the sound, they immediately curled up their necks and tucked their tails between their legs.

"You are a good opponent." Levi praised from the bottom of his heart.

"You're not bad either." Isaac responded with a compliment, raised his hand with some difficulty, and gave a thumbs up.

Zuofia held her forehead and sighed, "You two, keep talking about business!!!"

Both of them smiled awkwardly, and Isaac was the first to speak, "Mr. Levi, as I said, your weight is completely insufficient."

"Isn't it okay?"

Levi sneered, "I haven't thrown the big one out yet. When I do, don't be scared to death."

Isaac stood up and said, "Come on! Old man, I will definitely not be scared by a young boy like you!"

"Then come!" Levi continued, "You have to ask everyone to leave about this matter. I can only tell you."

After the words fell, Silla’s face showed deep worry.

At this moment, she was not worried that Levi would take the opportunity to kill Isaac.

She was worried...the two of them wouldn't really roll up their sleeves and get started.

Isaac waved his hand, "Sheila, take everyone out of here and don't eavesdrop. I want to see what other cards this kid has."

"But..."

Isaac said impatiently, "I'm so old that I'll die if I don't have anyone to look after me."

"Besides, if I really die." Isaac pointed at Levi and said, "Then the murderer will be this guy. Then you beat him to death."

Levi also pointed at Isaac and told Zofia, "If he dies, he will frame the blame on me. When the time comes, you will lead me away to prevent me from being beaten to death!"

For a while.

After everyone heard Li Wei say the most cowardly words in the most arrogant tone, they all froze on the spot.

Zofia took a half step back.

"Don't... don't be like this. Suddenly we don't know each other very well."

Even Lilith wanted to cut off her relationship with Levi, "It's so embarrassing...even more embarrassing than when I was kicked out of the house..."

The awkward atmosphere spread, and finally started with Zofia leaving with Lilith, and everyone left one after another.

Now there were only two people left in the room.

Levi and Isaac.

Isaac cast a hopeful look at Levi, "Then..."

He said loudly, "Mr. Levi, please give me a reason enough for me to die."

He paused.

He laughed involuntarily, "I beg you."

Li Wei sighed.

"Otherwise, let me tell you, old people are very stubborn...I have played so many cards, but you still don't think it's enough."

Isaac shook his head, "I'm not relying on my old age, I'm a businessman, and I hope you can give me a decisive weight!"

"That's good...as you wish."

Levi slowly walked towards Isaac.

at this point.

The final moment of the transaction.

He will take out the most core card in the [Demon King Deck].

"Old man, don't be scared."

Isaac shook his head, "Old man, I haven't seen anything."

"So..."

Now it's my turn!

at this point.

The [Crimson Swordswoman-Zophia] [Humanoid Nuclear Deterrence-Lilith] [Righteous Necromancer-Levi] on the field will be used as the material! Make a summons! ! !

The card that makes the world cringe, makes the supreme old man unable to ascend to the throne at night, makes the pig on the throne frightened and falls, and makes the goddesses most dream about a card, appears on the field.

[The Demon King of Love-Levi]! ! !

He smiled, looked at the old man in front of him proudly, and asked meaningfully——

"I said I was the devil, would you believe me?"

Anyone asks that.

No one takes it seriously.

It's like a big joke.

When Isaac felt that Levi was just like before, talking trash to calm the tense atmosphere, he became at a loss.

The death he expected took an unreasonable step towards him.

He asked in astonishment, "Then what is the devil's purpose?"

"If I said it was to save the world, would you believe it?" Levi paused and continued, "Add a little peace, add a little kindness...and finally pour a bucket of the beauty you love to see!"

"Thus, the world that most excites me, the devil, was born!"

He is the devil, he wants to save the world, he talks about benevolence, justice and morality, and he has beauty in his heart!

The big joke appeared in his ears, and Isaac couldn't help laughing.

The laughter grew louder and louder, until the whole room was echoing with his laughter, until the whole castle was echoing with his laughter.

Levi reluctantly took out a tissue from the storage ring and wiped the tears overflowing from the corners of his eyes, as well as the dark blood that overflowed from his mouth and inevitably mixed with his nose.

"Don't laugh. If you stop laughing, I will have to find a way to escape later."

"I'm quite looking forward to seeing such a scene..." Isaac slowly stopped laughing, but there was always a bright smile on his face.

Levi raised the corner of his mouth and said, "This is so good. The old man should smile so kindly."

"If you put on a bad face all day long, your family won't want to see it. Family conflicts will arise."

Isaac coughed violently.

"it is good!"

He said excitedly, "I lost this deal! You won!"

After trying his best, he stood up, but staggered a bit. The pipeline in the alchemy secret instrument connected to his body prevented him from taking half a step away from the sarcophagus beneath him.

And he looked back.

He angrily tore all the pipes apart.

Finally, he took a trembling step to reach the distance that he had not reached for who knows how long.

Li Wei hurriedly helped him.

Isaac was quite dissatisfied, "I'm not old enough to need help."

Li Wei had no choice but to retort, "Don't be stubborn. The goats at the entrance of the village are not as stubborn as you."

"You guy, please be virtuous. Be careful that you don't get married in the future... huh?" He nodded, "Who are you, that red-haired girl?"

The old man looked at Levi with interest.

Levi's mouth twitched, "People who are almost dead should stop asking for gossip."

"People like you are prone to bad luck in old age and will have red hair all over your body after death!"

"You're shy, aren't you?" Isaac pointed, "You have to seize the opportunity when you have it, and you can't regret it later."

Levi blinked, "Don't tell me that the reason why you helped the demi-humans was because you liked a girl with animal ears, and as a result, she died early."

"No?" Isaac asked confidently.

"Then this is too bloody!" Levi said immediately.

"What's wrong with the blood? The warrior of pure love will live forever!"

"Yes, yes, you are absolutely right."

Levi helped the guy down the steps.

"Where are you going next?"

"Come with me, this old man, to the terrace to rest for a while."

He paused and continued, "I also want to know what you plan to do."

"You are really about to die." Levi sighed helplessly, "Can you please be less worried? When the child is older, he will be severely beaten by society."

At this moment, without the support of the alchemy ritual, Isaac's body gradually became thinner at an incredible speed.

It was like it had been buried in the ground for several years.

It's almost dry.

If Levi hadn't been using Honkai Hand to keep him in a half-human, half-undead monster state, he would have been in trouble.

But...even so, Honkai Hand will still cause great pain.

This old guy can still laugh out loud and talk a lot of trash along the way. He can really be said to be getting stronger with age.

After supporting Isaac, he walked to the door of the room and opened the door.

Everyone showed a look of astonishment.

And outside the door.

Those who were saved by him, received a good education, discovered their potential, and became the guards guarding the city, could not help but be shocked.

Isaac waved his hand, "It's not me you should protect anymore."

"Go ahead and patrol the outer city."

"But..." A guard couldn't help but say something.

The moment they saw Isaac walking out, they all knew what was going to happen.

"Hurry up, this is my last order!" Isaac immediately became serious and shouted to them in a tone that did not allow for refutation.

After the guards dispersed.

He looked at Alyssa and Sheila, "You guys... forget it, this city is still running even without me."

"From now on, you can rely on yourselves. Old man, it's time for me to retire."

"Alyssa, Sheila, before the real fairy tale dream comes, please protect this city."

then.

Levi supported Isaac and walked slowly in the empty corridor. The old and thin figure became smaller and smaller as he went away.

On a terrace with a view of the entire city.

Levi asked, "To be honest, I'm a little worried that you will hand over this important trust to Alyssa and Sheila so easily. Are you so big-hearted?"

"Why don't you entrust me with every detail?"

Isaac hummed.

"This is a family matter."

"Alyssa went to the Royal City Academy and didn't learn much about swordsmanship, but she expanded her knowledge a lot."

"Look..." He waved forward as if showing off his child, with a proud look on his face.

"These houses, these neat streets... everything that is quiet and peaceful as far as the eye can see is Alyssa's suggestion."

"There are many other demi-humans who have mastered the means of making a living through handicrafts because Alyssa got to know many craftsmen."

"And Sheila, she was born a mercenary."

"It's because of her."

"Those who covet the wealth of Heaton City dare not make mistakes."

"And I...even though I'm no longer here, the core shock of Heaton City will disappear."

"But... the future of Heaton City will not be cut off here."

"And you..."

"I beg you."

Isaac continued, "If one day Heaton City will fall into everlasting suffering, please..."

Levi interrupted him, "I'm not that powerful."

"Besides, that's what I originally planned."

Levi said seriously, "If the people here continue to move forward towards that beautiful fairy tale dream, I will reach out to give them a hand without hesitation."

"Here." Li Wei said solemnly, "I swear in the name of the goddess."

Isaac felt as if he had seen a ghost when he heard this, "Fuck, I hesitate now... what the hell are you!!!"

This time it was Levi's turn to be proud, "Lao Deng, I'm so awesome beyond your imagination!"

"I'm numb, I'm really numb. I regret it a little bit... How about you put me back?" Isaac was frightened.

Levi pulled him forcefully and stretched out his hand to point forward.

"Instead of going back, why not take a look at the scenery in the distance? You have been huddled in the small room. How long has it been since you saw such a beautiful scenery?"

Follow the direction of Levi's finger.

What Isaac saw was...

Thousands of lights lit up one after another in this deep night.

Isaac looked at the scenery in front of him with tears in his eyes.

It suddenly became clear!

So Levi took out the beer from the landlady and handed him a glass, "Cheers!"

"cheers!"

The beer entered his throat, and Isaac stuck out his tongue in disgust, "When can this beer be improved? Please come to a demon king and save this terrible beer!"

Levi was deeply moved, "My dear friend, when I first started drinking it, I also felt it was so damn unpleasant to drink."

"Then you change it." Isaac said immediately.

Levi chuckled, "This is another deal."

The evening breeze is blowing.

"I'm leaving. It's very cold. Take your time and see for yourself."

"Oh, by the way." Levi remembered something, "My cat is interested in your alchemy secret, so I took it away to study."

"Then this is also a deal." Isaac smiled.

Levi choked when the words reached his mouth.

Fuck, I dug a hole for myself to jump out of.

He sighed helplessly.

"Then I will say one more nice word to make you, an old man, happy before you leave."

Li Wei solemnly said, "The oath I made to you will serve as a contract and be as solid as a rock."

"That's good." Isaac withdrew his gaze and silently stared at the scenery in front of him.

This scene is amazing.

"It's so cold... You're leaving soon. As a young man, I have to give you, an old guy, a whole lot of work. Just wait, don't die first."

Levi ran away quickly while he was still alive.

He took Lilith to an empty place.

Come anyway.

If you don't do it, it would be a waste of a disposable tool, Lilith.

so...

Just give it a try.

"Come on, Lilith, give that old man a big job!"

At Levi's signal.

Lilith raised her staff high and pointed it at the sky.

A white line cut through the darkness, piercing the tranquility.

And exploded in the sky.

The mighty white light tore the sky apart, and the dead night was as bright as day.

The scene reflected in Isaac's eyes made him feel the meaning of living again - that is to run towards death with hope.

then.

He closed his eyes.

now.

Everything he saved was free again, including himself.

Levi, who withdrew his gaze, was overjoyed because he had solved a problem and stopped his losses in time.

He realized a problem.

"Fuck..."

"It's just a matter of patronizing your whole life."

“Where did my horse go?!”

"It's over." Levi quickly found Zofia and said as if he was about to die, "Almighty Zofia, where is my horse?!"

The corners of Zuofia's mouth twitched, could you please be serious for a while?

I didn’t see people starting to prepare for the funeral in the middle of the night.

You should look at the occasion!

Looking at Lilith lying on the ground with a thumbs up waiting to be praised, Chodori riding Jasmine and running around, Levi who was so anxious that he was about to have a myocardial infarction, and Ma Ma who didn't know where to go... .

Zofia felt her blood pressure rise.
