Grim Reaper's Workday
Chapter 9
The singer died, the fate is really unfair! "
"This is also fate."
"You talk so boring." The girl raised her long blond hair hanging on her shoulders, walked a few quick steps to Ye Li's side, poked her head to look at the face of the god of death covered by the overly long bangs, and said with a smile: "But I don't hate it. .”
Ye Li turned his head away, the girl showed a smile of successful trick.
The sky began to darken, and Aslan climbed up countless stars, Aslan noticed that the ground under their feet had turned into white sand, and the desert of the underworld was close at hand.
"You have to walk the road ahead by yourself. Don't put down the lantern, because it is your only compass." Ye Li instructed: "Farewell."
"It won't be a farewell." Margaret said suddenly, and then she stepped forward and took Ye Li's pale and bloodless hand: "You are the type I like, if I am not already dirty, I will definitely I will kiss you, what a pity. So in the next life, I will definitely find you to make up for this regret. "
The girl's sudden confession left Ye Li at a loss for what to do. After organizing his words a little, he could only forcefully say calmly, "You won't remember me."
"Then I'll let you remember me." The girl smiled slightly, took two steps back, and closed her eyes.She took a deep breath, and a charming singing voice came out of her mouth.
The sound is like the ocean lapping on the beach, the wind pushing the leaves, and the flowers blooming in the morning.At this moment, Aslan was convinced that if it wasn't for the damn fate, Margaret would definitely become a famous singer.
"I just wrote this song. It hasn't been released yet, and it won't be released in the future." The girl said regretfully, "I hope you will stop when you hear my singing."
"What's the name of this song?" Ye Li hadn't recovered from the singing, so he could only ask in a low voice.
""Tothesea". I was born in an inland city, so seeing the sea has always been my dream. But it seems that this dream can only be realized in the next life."
After finishing speaking, Margaret walked towards the desert, leaving a series of footprints that were not deep or shallow behind her.Just when Ye Li was about to leave, he heard Margaret's call again.
"See you in the next life!"
The girl turned around and waved exaggeratedly at the god of death.At this time, the wind and sand in the desert of the underworld untimely swept across this world full of death, but it could not hide her figure.
Her blond hair was flying wildly in the strong wind, and her transparent sea blue eyes were comparable to the stars in the sky. She was like a lighthouse, emitting a dazzling light in this darkness.
"See you in the next life."
Aslan heard Ye Li's response, the scene in front of him became blurred again, and everything disappeared again.
"Why not stay?"
Suddenly a voice whispered in Aslan's ear, reminding him of the trap in the desert of the underworld that Rachel had said.He tried not to listen, but the sound was everywhere.
"Stay here, the desert of the underworld will welcome a fresh soul like you."
The wind and sand in the desert of the underworld became more and more violent, gradually burying Aslan's slow-moving body in reality, as if countless hands were grasping his body.Not only that, the desert of the underworld also activated its ability to make people recall, allowing Aslan to recall countless painful experiences in the past, trying to make him fall into a spiritual shackle and unable to extricate himself.
Aslan remembered that his father smashed his new guitar when he was 17 years old, remembered how his family and classmates did not understand him, and remembered that he lived alone, not only for the dream of singing, but also to get angry with his father. I want my father to respect me.
"You work very hard, there will be many people who appreciate you here."
The boy saw several figures appearing in the wind and sand in front of him.Those figures are very familiar to him, they are his parents and elder brother, classmates who don't recognize music, and some friends who played together when they were young, but are now drifting away.
"I approve of you," said his stern father.
"I love your singing voice." The classmates applauded him: "Please keep singing."
The childhood friend stepped forward and took Aslan's hand, and said in a sweet voice: "Stay here with us, we will always be with you."
Yes, the reality is so tiring, why not stay here?All the sad memories that Aslan had experienced sprung up from his mind like mushrooms after a spring rain. Even though he knew it was a trap, he was bewitched by the devilish voice, his heart became lazy and distorted, and his pace began to slow down. Just waiting to be buried by the wind and sand.
"Butterflies are weak and superficial species. Once entangled in spider silk, they have no power to fight back, so extinction is a matter of course."
For some reason, in Aslan's chaotic mind, the scene of his mother educating himself and his brother suddenly appeared when he was young.At that time, my mother returned home after a day's work, with a tired and indifferent face. Seeing the scene of spiders preying on butterflies in "Extinct Creatures Collection" was playing on the optical TV, she turned to Aslan and his brother in front of the TV. Said.
"But Mom." Aslan stared at the screen, even though he was entangled in layers of spider webs, he would never give up on the blue butterfly fluttering its wings, and said foolishly, "It hasn't given up yet."
"It's a useless struggle, you will understand when you grow up." After leaving these words, the mother took her brother away and left Aslan alone in front of the TV.
jump----
With a crisp cracking sound, the fragile wings tore off the spider web and escaped.This is what the mother does not know.The sunlight jumped on the blue butterfly wings, and also jumped into Aslan's heart.
Even if you are entangled by spider webs, you can't forget to flap your wings and rush to the future.
"Aslan!"
A cry reached Aslan's ears, like a thunderclap, making everyone in front of the boy disappear instantly.Aslan woke up immediately, only to find that his body from the neck down was buried under the sand, with only one hand raised straight to the sky.
The wind and sand stopped, and the gravel flowed through the boy's fingertips, leaving nothing behind.He stared at the starry sky, as if the dark blue starry sky was a mirror, reflecting his appearance.
"Aslan!"
That voice shouted again, this time Aslan recognized the owner of the voice, it was Ye Li's anxious and worried voice.He didn't know how Ye Li's voice came, but in the next second, his consciousness temporarily left his body and flew away following Ye Li's voice.
His consciousness crossed the desert, passed through the barriers of several buildings of different styles, and avoided the gloomy death in black robe, and finally came to a secret underground palace.
In the palace, a classic piano that Aslan had only seen in historical books was placed in the middle of the hall, emitting a faint cold light.Behind the piano stands a huge block of ice, bound by chains.Vaguely, Aslan saw something in the ice, and when he wanted to take a closer look, he was blocked by a cold line of sight.
"Don't go near it."
It was a girl's sweet voice, which made people's hair stand on end, but also made Aslan feel familiar.He looked back slowly, and at the same time, the piano in the middle of the hall rang.
A rotten dick, a teenage rotten dick, was sitting at the piano, playing the keys with bare bony hands.But in the next second, this woman quickly grew fresh skin and clothes, and turned into a girl in a black Lolita dress.
It was the crazy woman who took Ye Li away!
Anger burned fiercely in his heart. When Aslan wanted to rush over to beat up the god of death violently, the inexplicable gravity pulled him away again, making him unable to move.
"Aslan."
Ye Li's voice sounded again, and Aslan was sure this time that the voice came from the ice cube behind the piano!
Ye Li was trapped in this huge block of ice, and that crazy woman was guarding him!
"Wait for me!" At the last moment of being pulled away by gravity, Aslan shouted to the ice: "We will definitely come to rescue you!"
Then it was pitch black, and nothing was seen.
☆、Chapter 15
Aslan felt a slap on his face, he opened his eyes in extreme displeasure, only to find that Rachel was kneeling in front of him, and raised her hand, intending to slap him again.
"It's okay, Aslan, I won't let you go Godie so easily!" After finishing speaking, Rachel's palm was about to cut through the barrier of air, and landed heavily on the boy's left cheek, which had already started to turn red.
"Stop, stop, I'm not dead yet!" Aslan was so frightened that he quickly stretched out his hand from the sand, blocking Rachel's begging slap.
Seeing that her friend finally responded, Rachel couldn't help but wet her eyes, and excitedly stepped forward and hugged Aslan's head.But this posture is really a bit funny, like a child playing on the beach hugging a cold watermelon in surprise, Aslan quickly pushed him away.
After Aslan got out of the sand and took a few breaths, Rachel complained a little: "The desert of the underworld is really not easy to mess with. They actually forcibly separated the two of us. I found you after a lot of trouble. I won't do it again." There is a next time." Then, he tied an enchanted nylon rope around the ankles of the two: "Let's set off quickly, time waits for no one."
A few hours later, when Aslan's physical strength was having a hard time supporting his body to move on, they finally saw a desolate city not far away, sleeping in the boundless desert.
"Finally, finally—"
After saying this, Aslan felt that all the energy contained deep within his body was burning because of the sudden appearance of the city.The two boys ran all the way, avoiding the headless guards riding black horses at the gate of the city. There are no guards in the city of the underworld, so they could easily sneak into the city, and then hid in an alley with lightning speed. Observe the scene outside secretly.
Speaking of the cities in the underworld, the first thing people think of is dilapidation, but what Aslan and Rachel see is a thriving and prosperous scene.Surrounding the Southern Cross Square was a circle of colorful lights and a busy city with an oriental flavor. It was exactly the same as the "temple fair" Aslan had seen on TV.
But Aslan found that the owner of every shop either lost his arms or legs, or lost his head to act as a "headless horseman". Shouting various human languages.But fortunately, they were selling ordinary food, which made Aslan breathe a sigh of relief. He thought he would see exotic food like "charcoal-grilled eyeballs" or "bleeding raw meat".
"Oh my god, this place is more lively than the underground shopping mall!" Aslan looked around at the commotion and said with disbelief.
"Although I've heard about the current Satan and his love for the human world, I really didn't expect to love it to such an extent." Rachel sighed a little, leaving a seed of doubt in her heart, and then started to make the clothes of heaven. The style changed into a black robe like a tramp.
Souls with severed arms and legs, who do not meet the requirements of becoming a god of death but long to stay in the underworld can serve as logistics in the underworld, and of course they can also choose to open a shop, but such a large-scale market really makes people feel uneasy.When changing the style of the sky clothes for Aslan, Rachel's head couldn't help thinking again.
The current Satan must be planning some unknown secret!This conclusion couldn't help but make the angel shiver. He sincerely hoped that it would never develop into a war between the two worlds.
"Let's go."
Then the two turned around and were about to merge into the market full of ominous atmosphere.
But then, the scenery in front of him distorted instantly.The ukiyo-e-like bustling city was forcibly twisted into twists in their eyes, and the dizziness that followed was like a roller coaster attacking the two of them.When the two of them regained their composure, they found that they were no longer in the busy city, but in a quiet study room.
Before he could be surprised, the strong musk came over his face, making Aslan want to sneeze, but Rachel blocked his mouth with a big hand, suppressing the boy's sneeze.
Seeing Aslan staring at herself with resentful eyes, Rachel put her finger on her lips in a warning manner, signaling him not to speak out.Rachel didn't know who used what kind of magic to send them here, but he knew that this person's strength must not be underestimated.
He quietly shielded Aslan behind him, and clenched his left hand tightly, ready to summon his dual swords at any time.
"Welcome, welcome, welcome to the underworld. I have been waiting for you for a long time. By the way, don't step on my carpet with your dirty feet, or I will let you meet the ancient monsters in the sea of oblivion."
Under the orange light, a voice spoke in a half-threatening tone, and when the brown swivel chair with its back to the two made a slight turn, it turned to face them.A man in his thirties has a leisurely posture, with a thick and large booklet spread out on his lap, and the number of pages he is now turning over is a colorful map.The stove behind him gilded his body with gold, he held his face in his hands, and his golden eyes were full of smiles.
Such an indistinct smile reminded Rachel somewhat of her teacher, Archangel Raphael, who couldn't show any emotions.This person's huge sense of presence also gave him a kind of majesty without anger, and even humans like Aslan were aware of it.
"Hey, I remember you said Honora's brother, what's his name?" The man pretended to be naive and scratched his head, then flipped through the thick book on his lap: "Ah, Rachel Darke, and Aslan Famsorone. What a cute little guy, it's a blessing that you can cross the desert and come to the "ghost city" under my jurisdiction."
"You, who are you?" Rachel boldly asked the terrifying existence in front of her, "Also, why do you know my sister's name?"
But when she asked this sentence, Rachel already had a vague answer in her mind.Now, he only hoped that the god of death in front of him would never be their enemy.
"Oh, look at me. I'm really old. I even forgot to introduce myself. That's not okay." The man laughed a few times, lifted the silver hair hanging on his forehead, and said, "My name is Kan Leiter, the first of the seven deadly sins, is arrogance."
"proud......
The word arrogance came out immediately, which made Rachel's feet limp in fright. Aslan, who didn't understand anything, asked a key question, and said in a half-joking tone: "Although I don't know how you did it, But since you asked us to come here, you shouldn't be here to hold a book fair, right?"
"Hey, what you said is too rude." Rachel reprimanded in a low voice, and said through voice transmission with her mind: "According to the rumors in our heaven, arrogance is not a good-tempered god of death, and it is ridiculously strong! What if he What if one is unhappy and kills us all?"
"I don't think he would do that." Aslan said firmly.
"Huh?" Rachel was speechless.
While the two were having a heated meeting, Canret couldn't help but burst out laughing, and interrupted them: "If I want to kill you, it won't take much effort." Then he paused dramatically , continued:
"On the contrary, I want to help you to overthrow the current Satan's rule."
"Huh? Are you serious!"
Hearing the news that was like a bolt from the blue, although Rachel was extremely surprised, it was also reasonable.He was jealous of killing so many people by order before, and it was impossible for this matter to pass through the ears of arrogance. Maybe he just couldn't understand the indiscriminate killing of innocent people, so he decided to help.
But these were just his guesses, and Rachel decided to muster up the courage to ask why.
"Because Satan is going to attack your heavens, can't you see through this?" Death raised his eyebrows, laughed mockingly, and continued: "Not only the lovely Miss Jealousy, but also many Master Death Killing so many people in the world is just to recruit troops and accumulate manpower for war."
No wonder there have been frequent wars and plagues in recent years. In some areas, the government has decided to hide it from the masses, but Rachel still doesn't understand: "But as the seven deadly sins, you should be supporting Satan, right?"
"Because this war has no meaning at all in my eyes." Canret held his forehead, his smile turned into sadness: "Because even if there is a war, the two sides are evenly matched, and there will only be meaningless consumption. The incumbent Satan doesn't listen to other people's opinions, which is a real headache."
Rachel calmed down a little: "But why don't you resist yourself and become king yourself?"
"Because I have made a promise that I will never do anything to "Satan", and I will never become a "Satan", so I need to combine your strengths. Of course, I will give you "favor" and combat power in the underworld, Let you play 100% of your strength even in the most severe danger."
After these words, Rachel could not refuse no matter what.Although I don't know whether what Canret said is true, but if they refuse, this person will definitely kill them without hesitation.
He and Aslan looked at each other for a second, and after the boy nodded, Rachel stretched out her single wing, plucked a light golden fluff from the inner side of the wing, and took a few steps forward.
"On behalf of the heavens, I will conclude a cooperation contract with you."
The ups and downs of life are nothing more than that.Now that it was confirmed that Satan was trying to rebel, Rachel hurriedly wrote the letter, and with the help of Canret, it was sent to the heavens through a special delivery channel without the death being able to detect it.
But when Rachel wrote the letter, Canret said that he also had something to say to the heavens, especially the Archangel Raphael.So in the last paragraph of the letter, the seven deadly sins speak arrogantly on behalf of the underworld.
"According to the contract concluded between the underworld and the heavens thousands of years ago, I have been supervising the previous Satans. In the underworld, only the current Satan is obsessed. Most of the gods of death still yearn for peace. Start, I will fight back against you in the name of the first Satan."
Before stuffing the letter into the envelope and covering it with black basket-colored sealing wax, Rachel took a peek at Mr. Arrogant's handwriting.There was an air of arrogance in the elegant handwriting, which not only made him feel that this man did not seem to be asking for an alliance, but was threatening.But thinking about the strength of this person, he might be able to sit on an equal footing with his teacher and have the strength to challenge the heavens.
"Then, we must take back Ye Li, who is one of the victory conditions, who most likely inherited the power of Rage."
Rachel stuffed the letter to a crow covered with white feathers, and when it disappeared instantly after flying out of the window, she said arrogantly suddenly.
☆、Chapter 16
The seven deadly sins, wrath, are terrifying devils born out of the karma of anger because they are dissatisfied with the injustices of the world.They usually die with hatred, with a bad temper and hard-nosed eyes.
But Ye Li gave people a kind of coldness and gentleness like snowflakes, no matter what, it was impossible to imagine that he could be qualified for such a position as Fury.
"Ye Li was brought by Honora, and she has always taken good care of this poor boy, so if the power of rage has not returned to Satan, it can only be passed on to Ye Li through special means." In Rui Under Qiu and Aslan's puzzled eyes, Kanret spread his hands and explained.
"Special means?" Rachel asked, the secret between the gods of death temporarily aroused his curiosity.
"The inheritance of the seven deadly sins is carried out in accordance with the God of Death rankings, and there is a special method, which is to extract the purest blood of oneself. You see, the body of the God of Death is the condensed body of the soul, and the red blood is left in the world. Only the black dead blood like pollutants remains in the false blood vessels. The purest blood in the body, which also symbolizes the proof that he was born as a human, is the black red blood in the heart, true blood. It contains the power of death , memory, and hate."
When Canret mentioned the black-red blood, Aslan suddenly recalled that the girl named Honora gave Ye Li a glass of black-red liquid.Could it be that at that time, Honora had vaguely sensed the unfortunate future, but she was worried about Ye Li, so she planned to pass on her power to him in advance?
But if one wants to extract such important blood, severe pain must be taken for granted.
"If you follow the rules, the inheritance of the seven deadly sins will not be so painful. At best, it's just like drawing blood. But this special method is different." Canret lowered his head and pondered how to make this cruel process more vivid and frightening. To elaborate: "To use a knife to cut the flesh around the heart, you must see the bone deep, and then wait for the black blood to dry before the real blood can flow. Although I have not tried it, it is almost like piercing repeatedly with a special saber. The wound felt pain dozens of times, and this special method can only work if Ye Li drinks the true blood and Honora disappears completely."
"...Aonora." Rachel's voice came through the gap between her teeth.
Speechless, Rachel was completely speechless.Although he didn't spend much time with his sister who became the god of death, he could still see her state.Honora's release from the shackles of the past and the joy of fully enjoying the present made Rachel feel genuinely happy, and he even thought she would never be the same as before.
That's not free.
He hoped that Honora could be selfish and run away immediately after sensing the ominous omen.Just like that night, when she cried and said that she wanted to go home, Rachel wanted to hold her hand and take her back to the home full of dandelions and grassland full of cattle and sheep.
But she is always Honora, who lives for herself and dies for others.
"I... know where Ye Li is."
Aslan, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said.
"I saw this by accident when I was in the desert of the underworld. It was an underground palace with a large hall and a piano in the middle. Ye Li was frozen in the huge ice block behind the piano, as if asleep .”
When he carefully recalled that scene and wanted to describe the palace in detail, he recalled a figure that made his teeth itch.
"The girl who chased us before is guarding him." He forgot the name of the woman, and looked at Rachel, the angel understood, and added:
"It's jealousy that watches over him."
"That's really tricky." Canret frowned distressedly: "That underground palace is a territory of jealousy. Not only does it require special mechanisms to open the gate, but it also needs to fight against the death guards in ambush. Alas—troublesome .”
"That being the case, we have to start earlier." Rachel said righteously: "If we have to wait for reinforcements from the heavenly realm, how many innocent people will die in the human realm. The sooner we start, the better."
The two boys turned their eyes to the god of death in front of them, with eagerness in their eyes.Seeing that the two of them were bored, Canret simply threw them a map of the underworld for their study, then casually summoned a shadow attendant from the shadows, pushed them out of the study without any explanation, and threw them into the dark black-gold corridor among.
In Kanret's study room, the sound of the stove burning seemed a bit harsh, and the man couldn't help but laughed heartily.
"The children you have protected with your life will return to the edge of life and death. How do you feel, Honora? It must ignite your boundless anger again." The man stood up from the swivel chair, and the silver waist His long hair flashed a metallic luster, and he lowered his head to glance at the thick volume in his hand, and the open page was Honora's information.
I have to admit that Canret once hated Honora's platinum-blonde long hair, but he still hated it when Honora dyed her hair black, and later on the hedgehog head.
It turned out that I just simply hated a god of death like Honora.He wasn't sure until he realized Honora's death.Canret knew Rachel was her brother early on, but he selectively concealed it, just because he didn't like Honora.
The arrogance of the seven deadly sins turned out to be nothing more than an aversion to Honora, a "person" who can wholeheartedly be angry for others.
"It's just like you, like a fool." Canret opened the desk drawer and took out a painting that had been cast with the "time freeze" spell.In the brightly colored picture, the man with long silver hair stands straight behind the chair, and his aura of sword-drawing remains undiminished even though it appears in the painting.Sitting on the chair was a short man with curly black hair. The smile on his face was very similar to that of Canret outside the screen.
"I won't let that lunatic destroy your home, Satan." He lowered his head and planted a feathery kiss on the little man's face.
"Oh, I still can't believe that arrogance will come to help us, it's like a dream. And you've become too seldom, what about the good words?"
"Ordinary high school students are fine without frothing at the mouth in this environment, okay! Don't expect too much!"
In front of a mansion whose main color is black but still resplendent and magnificent, Rachel and Aslan had a rare exchange of words under strong mental pressure.The underworld is a world of eternal night, and the illumination can only rely on the faint starlight above the head. In the mist, you can vaguely see the bright lights of the ghost city in the distance.These factors didn't look scary in the ghost market, but outside the mansion in the wilderness, they looked very much like a ghost movie set in the ancient East.
Especially, the shadow waiters who surrounded the two boys.They are high-level attendants transformed from shadows, with a certain amount of intelligence, and their attack power is even stronger.
"He, why don't they have a face?" Aslan didn't dare to look up at those faceless weirdos, for he was afraid that if he met their eyes, he would suffer some terrible curse.
"Because they don't have names, only shadow waiters with names can have faces, so shadow waiters with faces are also the highest and most advanced." Rachel explained that he was not afraid at first, but the fear of the companions around him could not be ignored , aroused the curiosity of those shadow waiters who had thin feelings, and then slowly approached.
It's a bit scary indeed.Rachel said heartily.
Suddenly, a black tentacle tied Rachel's ankle without warning. Before Rachel could react, the shadow attendant picked him up from the ground and shook it left and right like he was shaking dirty clothes.
"I lost!!!" Rachel screamed.
"Rachel!"
Aslan hastily punched and kicked the shadow waiter, pulling the tentacles protruding from its abdomen.But that shadow waiter was not affected in the slightest, and concentrated on throwing Rachel's body faster and faster under the dull (eyeless) gaze of other shadow waiters.
"What are you talking about, number 130?"
In this farce, a savior-like voice came into the ears of Rachel and Aslan. They looked at the source of the voice in surprise, between the wide-open door and the two tall shadow attendants, A boy who was no more than ten years old was smoking a pipe, his brows were slightly raised.
"...I lost it." The two said in surprise in unison.
After hearing the boy's words, the shadow waiter holding Rachel made a series of strange sounds, its tone was fierce, as if it had received a long-loved gift.
"Even if you like an angel's heart, you can't make him spit it out by shaking it." The boy laughed and said, "You are a new Shadow Waiter, you haven't killed anything yet, so let me tell you, To use a knife, put—
"Alright, alright, alright! Why don't you put me down before talking about such unnutritious topics! And who are you?" Rachel, who was about to be dumped, complained loudly.
"Me?" The boy looked at himself, and suddenly realized that he had forgotten the most important self-introduction, so he beckoned the shadow waiter to stop torturing Rachel.However, although the shadow waiter obediently stopped his movements, he wrapped Rachel in his arms self-centeredly, as if he wanted to dissolve him in his body.
The underworld is really scary.Seeing that Rachel was in no danger, Aslan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with emotion in his heart.
"I am the stand-in doll No. 005, and I will take part in your battle instead of the main body. After all, I am arrogant. If the main body leaves my jurisdiction, it will plunge the ghost city into disorder."
The boy blinked his big good-looking eyes. This little stand-in doll is so similar to Canret, it is really his childhood version.But letting such a stand-in doll fight, regardless of its combat effectiveness, would make people feel uneasy.
Hire child labor.Aslan and Rachel spoke at the same time.
"But I'm still Canret, don't forget this." The young version of Canret smiled sweetly, but said these vicious words: "As long as I want, you can be shadowed by me at any time." Waiters swallow it."
The two boys could only nod.
"Now that the preparations are complete, let's set off as soon as possible. You all have read the map, our destination is very clear." Kanret said: "The Crystal Palace under the thorn forest is our goal."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and dismissed the shadow attendants, leaving only the strongest ones, and turned them into horses so that they could quickly go to the dangerous thorn forest.
"So can I turn my shadow waiter into a horse too? It has been entangled with me." Rachel reluctantly pulled out of the shadow waiter's arms, but the guy still didn't give up on him don't go.So Rachel pressed a boulder-like weight on her body, and watched with difficulty that her companions in front of her were all riding Shadow Waiter, she couldn't help shedding sad tears in her heart.
"Sorry, this one seems to only fit one person." Aslan saw that there was no room behind him, and said helplessly.
"You just run, just let us see the physical strength of the angel." After Canret said with a smirk, he rode away.
"Don't leave me ahhhh!!!"
The screams of the angels wandered in the eternal night of the underworld, and could not go away for a long time.
☆、Chapter 17
Looking up, I want to see the dark blue night sky, so as to recall my mother's almost vague murmur.But when he really raised his head, all he could see was the dark blue sky criss-crossed by several thick branches, which made it impossible to detect his true body.
"Sorry, sorry."
Invisible tears dripped on the thorns of the thorns, and then disappeared without a word.
"My birth made you feel bad, sorry."
The invisible stars went out one by one, and the air became colder and colder.
The girl is naked, and her light brown long hair has already exceeded her hips//bunk, approaching/legs/roots.The nameless ghost hiding behind the dead tree didn't dare to move, for fear that even if he made a sound like a needle falling on the ground, it would disturb the girl.
In the girl's hand, a dagger gleaming with silver light suddenly appeared, and the tip of the knife rushed towards her.It must be a sharp magic weapon, because it is absorbing the light of the moon, thus making the blade even sharper.
Then there was the black-red blood light, bursting out from the girl's body like a fountain.The dagger crazily destroyed the girl's body, but in her eyes there was only the madness of the past, and nothing else.
Such crazy self-mutilation caused the night, which was as silent as the abyss of the sea, to play a thrilling and bloody movement.
"But if I'm allowed to die." The girl smiled, her emerald green eyes gleaming with moisture: "Sure enough, I still want to die at your feet."
"Please forgive Macchiato for being capricious, Lord Satan."
"I, I, am I really not dead? I feel like I have returned to the heaven!"
Panting, Rachel lay on the back of the horse transformed from Shadow Waiter, complaining out of breath.He couldn't even remember how long he had been running, he only felt that his legs were getting heavier and heavier, and the shadow waiter wrapped around him was getting heavier and heavier.Aslan couldn't bear it, and when he planned to lend him his horse, Canret snapped his fingers, turning the shadow waiter wrapped around Rachel into a black horse.
"So why not change early if you can change from the beginning! I thought this guy was very disobedient!" Rachel complained.
"It's indeed the most disobedient among the shadow waiters, so I just used advanced spells to make him behave better." Although it was my idea to tease you, Canret added in his heart.
"So why didn't you use it earlier!"
In this tense scene, Aslan couldn't help laughing, and for a moment he forgot that he was going to the extremely dangerous depths of hell.
Maybe this is
"This is also fate."
"You talk so boring." The girl raised her long blond hair hanging on her shoulders, walked a few quick steps to Ye Li's side, poked her head to look at the face of the god of death covered by the overly long bangs, and said with a smile: "But I don't hate it. .”
Ye Li turned his head away, the girl showed a smile of successful trick.
The sky began to darken, and Aslan climbed up countless stars, Aslan noticed that the ground under their feet had turned into white sand, and the desert of the underworld was close at hand.
"You have to walk the road ahead by yourself. Don't put down the lantern, because it is your only compass." Ye Li instructed: "Farewell."
"It won't be a farewell." Margaret said suddenly, and then she stepped forward and took Ye Li's pale and bloodless hand: "You are the type I like, if I am not already dirty, I will definitely I will kiss you, what a pity. So in the next life, I will definitely find you to make up for this regret. "
The girl's sudden confession left Ye Li at a loss for what to do. After organizing his words a little, he could only forcefully say calmly, "You won't remember me."
"Then I'll let you remember me." The girl smiled slightly, took two steps back, and closed her eyes.She took a deep breath, and a charming singing voice came out of her mouth.
The sound is like the ocean lapping on the beach, the wind pushing the leaves, and the flowers blooming in the morning.At this moment, Aslan was convinced that if it wasn't for the damn fate, Margaret would definitely become a famous singer.
"I just wrote this song. It hasn't been released yet, and it won't be released in the future." The girl said regretfully, "I hope you will stop when you hear my singing."
"What's the name of this song?" Ye Li hadn't recovered from the singing, so he could only ask in a low voice.
""Tothesea". I was born in an inland city, so seeing the sea has always been my dream. But it seems that this dream can only be realized in the next life."
After finishing speaking, Margaret walked towards the desert, leaving a series of footprints that were not deep or shallow behind her.Just when Ye Li was about to leave, he heard Margaret's call again.
"See you in the next life!"
The girl turned around and waved exaggeratedly at the god of death.At this time, the wind and sand in the desert of the underworld untimely swept across this world full of death, but it could not hide her figure.
Her blond hair was flying wildly in the strong wind, and her transparent sea blue eyes were comparable to the stars in the sky. She was like a lighthouse, emitting a dazzling light in this darkness.
"See you in the next life."
Aslan heard Ye Li's response, the scene in front of him became blurred again, and everything disappeared again.
"Why not stay?"
Suddenly a voice whispered in Aslan's ear, reminding him of the trap in the desert of the underworld that Rachel had said.He tried not to listen, but the sound was everywhere.
"Stay here, the desert of the underworld will welcome a fresh soul like you."
The wind and sand in the desert of the underworld became more and more violent, gradually burying Aslan's slow-moving body in reality, as if countless hands were grasping his body.Not only that, the desert of the underworld also activated its ability to make people recall, allowing Aslan to recall countless painful experiences in the past, trying to make him fall into a spiritual shackle and unable to extricate himself.
Aslan remembered that his father smashed his new guitar when he was 17 years old, remembered how his family and classmates did not understand him, and remembered that he lived alone, not only for the dream of singing, but also to get angry with his father. I want my father to respect me.
"You work very hard, there will be many people who appreciate you here."
The boy saw several figures appearing in the wind and sand in front of him.Those figures are very familiar to him, they are his parents and elder brother, classmates who don't recognize music, and some friends who played together when they were young, but are now drifting away.
"I approve of you," said his stern father.
"I love your singing voice." The classmates applauded him: "Please keep singing."
The childhood friend stepped forward and took Aslan's hand, and said in a sweet voice: "Stay here with us, we will always be with you."
Yes, the reality is so tiring, why not stay here?All the sad memories that Aslan had experienced sprung up from his mind like mushrooms after a spring rain. Even though he knew it was a trap, he was bewitched by the devilish voice, his heart became lazy and distorted, and his pace began to slow down. Just waiting to be buried by the wind and sand.
"Butterflies are weak and superficial species. Once entangled in spider silk, they have no power to fight back, so extinction is a matter of course."
For some reason, in Aslan's chaotic mind, the scene of his mother educating himself and his brother suddenly appeared when he was young.At that time, my mother returned home after a day's work, with a tired and indifferent face. Seeing the scene of spiders preying on butterflies in "Extinct Creatures Collection" was playing on the optical TV, she turned to Aslan and his brother in front of the TV. Said.
"But Mom." Aslan stared at the screen, even though he was entangled in layers of spider webs, he would never give up on the blue butterfly fluttering its wings, and said foolishly, "It hasn't given up yet."
"It's a useless struggle, you will understand when you grow up." After leaving these words, the mother took her brother away and left Aslan alone in front of the TV.
jump----
With a crisp cracking sound, the fragile wings tore off the spider web and escaped.This is what the mother does not know.The sunlight jumped on the blue butterfly wings, and also jumped into Aslan's heart.
Even if you are entangled by spider webs, you can't forget to flap your wings and rush to the future.
"Aslan!"
A cry reached Aslan's ears, like a thunderclap, making everyone in front of the boy disappear instantly.Aslan woke up immediately, only to find that his body from the neck down was buried under the sand, with only one hand raised straight to the sky.
The wind and sand stopped, and the gravel flowed through the boy's fingertips, leaving nothing behind.He stared at the starry sky, as if the dark blue starry sky was a mirror, reflecting his appearance.
"Aslan!"
That voice shouted again, this time Aslan recognized the owner of the voice, it was Ye Li's anxious and worried voice.He didn't know how Ye Li's voice came, but in the next second, his consciousness temporarily left his body and flew away following Ye Li's voice.
His consciousness crossed the desert, passed through the barriers of several buildings of different styles, and avoided the gloomy death in black robe, and finally came to a secret underground palace.
In the palace, a classic piano that Aslan had only seen in historical books was placed in the middle of the hall, emitting a faint cold light.Behind the piano stands a huge block of ice, bound by chains.Vaguely, Aslan saw something in the ice, and when he wanted to take a closer look, he was blocked by a cold line of sight.
"Don't go near it."
It was a girl's sweet voice, which made people's hair stand on end, but also made Aslan feel familiar.He looked back slowly, and at the same time, the piano in the middle of the hall rang.
A rotten dick, a teenage rotten dick, was sitting at the piano, playing the keys with bare bony hands.But in the next second, this woman quickly grew fresh skin and clothes, and turned into a girl in a black Lolita dress.
It was the crazy woman who took Ye Li away!
Anger burned fiercely in his heart. When Aslan wanted to rush over to beat up the god of death violently, the inexplicable gravity pulled him away again, making him unable to move.
"Aslan."
Ye Li's voice sounded again, and Aslan was sure this time that the voice came from the ice cube behind the piano!
Ye Li was trapped in this huge block of ice, and that crazy woman was guarding him!
"Wait for me!" At the last moment of being pulled away by gravity, Aslan shouted to the ice: "We will definitely come to rescue you!"
Then it was pitch black, and nothing was seen.
☆、Chapter 15
Aslan felt a slap on his face, he opened his eyes in extreme displeasure, only to find that Rachel was kneeling in front of him, and raised her hand, intending to slap him again.
"It's okay, Aslan, I won't let you go Godie so easily!" After finishing speaking, Rachel's palm was about to cut through the barrier of air, and landed heavily on the boy's left cheek, which had already started to turn red.
"Stop, stop, I'm not dead yet!" Aslan was so frightened that he quickly stretched out his hand from the sand, blocking Rachel's begging slap.
Seeing that her friend finally responded, Rachel couldn't help but wet her eyes, and excitedly stepped forward and hugged Aslan's head.But this posture is really a bit funny, like a child playing on the beach hugging a cold watermelon in surprise, Aslan quickly pushed him away.
After Aslan got out of the sand and took a few breaths, Rachel complained a little: "The desert of the underworld is really not easy to mess with. They actually forcibly separated the two of us. I found you after a lot of trouble. I won't do it again." There is a next time." Then, he tied an enchanted nylon rope around the ankles of the two: "Let's set off quickly, time waits for no one."
A few hours later, when Aslan's physical strength was having a hard time supporting his body to move on, they finally saw a desolate city not far away, sleeping in the boundless desert.
"Finally, finally—"
After saying this, Aslan felt that all the energy contained deep within his body was burning because of the sudden appearance of the city.The two boys ran all the way, avoiding the headless guards riding black horses at the gate of the city. There are no guards in the city of the underworld, so they could easily sneak into the city, and then hid in an alley with lightning speed. Observe the scene outside secretly.
Speaking of the cities in the underworld, the first thing people think of is dilapidation, but what Aslan and Rachel see is a thriving and prosperous scene.Surrounding the Southern Cross Square was a circle of colorful lights and a busy city with an oriental flavor. It was exactly the same as the "temple fair" Aslan had seen on TV.
But Aslan found that the owner of every shop either lost his arms or legs, or lost his head to act as a "headless horseman". Shouting various human languages.But fortunately, they were selling ordinary food, which made Aslan breathe a sigh of relief. He thought he would see exotic food like "charcoal-grilled eyeballs" or "bleeding raw meat".
"Oh my god, this place is more lively than the underground shopping mall!" Aslan looked around at the commotion and said with disbelief.
"Although I've heard about the current Satan and his love for the human world, I really didn't expect to love it to such an extent." Rachel sighed a little, leaving a seed of doubt in her heart, and then started to make the clothes of heaven. The style changed into a black robe like a tramp.
Souls with severed arms and legs, who do not meet the requirements of becoming a god of death but long to stay in the underworld can serve as logistics in the underworld, and of course they can also choose to open a shop, but such a large-scale market really makes people feel uneasy.When changing the style of the sky clothes for Aslan, Rachel's head couldn't help thinking again.
The current Satan must be planning some unknown secret!This conclusion couldn't help but make the angel shiver. He sincerely hoped that it would never develop into a war between the two worlds.
"Let's go."
Then the two turned around and were about to merge into the market full of ominous atmosphere.
But then, the scenery in front of him distorted instantly.The ukiyo-e-like bustling city was forcibly twisted into twists in their eyes, and the dizziness that followed was like a roller coaster attacking the two of them.When the two of them regained their composure, they found that they were no longer in the busy city, but in a quiet study room.
Before he could be surprised, the strong musk came over his face, making Aslan want to sneeze, but Rachel blocked his mouth with a big hand, suppressing the boy's sneeze.
Seeing Aslan staring at herself with resentful eyes, Rachel put her finger on her lips in a warning manner, signaling him not to speak out.Rachel didn't know who used what kind of magic to send them here, but he knew that this person's strength must not be underestimated.
He quietly shielded Aslan behind him, and clenched his left hand tightly, ready to summon his dual swords at any time.
"Welcome, welcome, welcome to the underworld. I have been waiting for you for a long time. By the way, don't step on my carpet with your dirty feet, or I will let you meet the ancient monsters in the sea of oblivion."
Under the orange light, a voice spoke in a half-threatening tone, and when the brown swivel chair with its back to the two made a slight turn, it turned to face them.A man in his thirties has a leisurely posture, with a thick and large booklet spread out on his lap, and the number of pages he is now turning over is a colorful map.The stove behind him gilded his body with gold, he held his face in his hands, and his golden eyes were full of smiles.
Such an indistinct smile reminded Rachel somewhat of her teacher, Archangel Raphael, who couldn't show any emotions.This person's huge sense of presence also gave him a kind of majesty without anger, and even humans like Aslan were aware of it.
"Hey, I remember you said Honora's brother, what's his name?" The man pretended to be naive and scratched his head, then flipped through the thick book on his lap: "Ah, Rachel Darke, and Aslan Famsorone. What a cute little guy, it's a blessing that you can cross the desert and come to the "ghost city" under my jurisdiction."
"You, who are you?" Rachel boldly asked the terrifying existence in front of her, "Also, why do you know my sister's name?"
But when she asked this sentence, Rachel already had a vague answer in her mind.Now, he only hoped that the god of death in front of him would never be their enemy.
"Oh, look at me. I'm really old. I even forgot to introduce myself. That's not okay." The man laughed a few times, lifted the silver hair hanging on his forehead, and said, "My name is Kan Leiter, the first of the seven deadly sins, is arrogance."
"proud......
The word arrogance came out immediately, which made Rachel's feet limp in fright. Aslan, who didn't understand anything, asked a key question, and said in a half-joking tone: "Although I don't know how you did it, But since you asked us to come here, you shouldn't be here to hold a book fair, right?"
"Hey, what you said is too rude." Rachel reprimanded in a low voice, and said through voice transmission with her mind: "According to the rumors in our heaven, arrogance is not a good-tempered god of death, and it is ridiculously strong! What if he What if one is unhappy and kills us all?"
"I don't think he would do that." Aslan said firmly.
"Huh?" Rachel was speechless.
While the two were having a heated meeting, Canret couldn't help but burst out laughing, and interrupted them: "If I want to kill you, it won't take much effort." Then he paused dramatically , continued:
"On the contrary, I want to help you to overthrow the current Satan's rule."
"Huh? Are you serious!"
Hearing the news that was like a bolt from the blue, although Rachel was extremely surprised, it was also reasonable.He was jealous of killing so many people by order before, and it was impossible for this matter to pass through the ears of arrogance. Maybe he just couldn't understand the indiscriminate killing of innocent people, so he decided to help.
But these were just his guesses, and Rachel decided to muster up the courage to ask why.
"Because Satan is going to attack your heavens, can't you see through this?" Death raised his eyebrows, laughed mockingly, and continued: "Not only the lovely Miss Jealousy, but also many Master Death Killing so many people in the world is just to recruit troops and accumulate manpower for war."
No wonder there have been frequent wars and plagues in recent years. In some areas, the government has decided to hide it from the masses, but Rachel still doesn't understand: "But as the seven deadly sins, you should be supporting Satan, right?"
"Because this war has no meaning at all in my eyes." Canret held his forehead, his smile turned into sadness: "Because even if there is a war, the two sides are evenly matched, and there will only be meaningless consumption. The incumbent Satan doesn't listen to other people's opinions, which is a real headache."
Rachel calmed down a little: "But why don't you resist yourself and become king yourself?"
"Because I have made a promise that I will never do anything to "Satan", and I will never become a "Satan", so I need to combine your strengths. Of course, I will give you "favor" and combat power in the underworld, Let you play 100% of your strength even in the most severe danger."
After these words, Rachel could not refuse no matter what.Although I don't know whether what Canret said is true, but if they refuse, this person will definitely kill them without hesitation.
He and Aslan looked at each other for a second, and after the boy nodded, Rachel stretched out her single wing, plucked a light golden fluff from the inner side of the wing, and took a few steps forward.
"On behalf of the heavens, I will conclude a cooperation contract with you."
The ups and downs of life are nothing more than that.Now that it was confirmed that Satan was trying to rebel, Rachel hurriedly wrote the letter, and with the help of Canret, it was sent to the heavens through a special delivery channel without the death being able to detect it.
But when Rachel wrote the letter, Canret said that he also had something to say to the heavens, especially the Archangel Raphael.So in the last paragraph of the letter, the seven deadly sins speak arrogantly on behalf of the underworld.
"According to the contract concluded between the underworld and the heavens thousands of years ago, I have been supervising the previous Satans. In the underworld, only the current Satan is obsessed. Most of the gods of death still yearn for peace. Start, I will fight back against you in the name of the first Satan."
Before stuffing the letter into the envelope and covering it with black basket-colored sealing wax, Rachel took a peek at Mr. Arrogant's handwriting.There was an air of arrogance in the elegant handwriting, which not only made him feel that this man did not seem to be asking for an alliance, but was threatening.But thinking about the strength of this person, he might be able to sit on an equal footing with his teacher and have the strength to challenge the heavens.
"Then, we must take back Ye Li, who is one of the victory conditions, who most likely inherited the power of Rage."
Rachel stuffed the letter to a crow covered with white feathers, and when it disappeared instantly after flying out of the window, she said arrogantly suddenly.
☆、Chapter 16
The seven deadly sins, wrath, are terrifying devils born out of the karma of anger because they are dissatisfied with the injustices of the world.They usually die with hatred, with a bad temper and hard-nosed eyes.
But Ye Li gave people a kind of coldness and gentleness like snowflakes, no matter what, it was impossible to imagine that he could be qualified for such a position as Fury.
"Ye Li was brought by Honora, and she has always taken good care of this poor boy, so if the power of rage has not returned to Satan, it can only be passed on to Ye Li through special means." In Rui Under Qiu and Aslan's puzzled eyes, Kanret spread his hands and explained.
"Special means?" Rachel asked, the secret between the gods of death temporarily aroused his curiosity.
"The inheritance of the seven deadly sins is carried out in accordance with the God of Death rankings, and there is a special method, which is to extract the purest blood of oneself. You see, the body of the God of Death is the condensed body of the soul, and the red blood is left in the world. Only the black dead blood like pollutants remains in the false blood vessels. The purest blood in the body, which also symbolizes the proof that he was born as a human, is the black red blood in the heart, true blood. It contains the power of death , memory, and hate."
When Canret mentioned the black-red blood, Aslan suddenly recalled that the girl named Honora gave Ye Li a glass of black-red liquid.Could it be that at that time, Honora had vaguely sensed the unfortunate future, but she was worried about Ye Li, so she planned to pass on her power to him in advance?
But if one wants to extract such important blood, severe pain must be taken for granted.
"If you follow the rules, the inheritance of the seven deadly sins will not be so painful. At best, it's just like drawing blood. But this special method is different." Canret lowered his head and pondered how to make this cruel process more vivid and frightening. To elaborate: "To use a knife to cut the flesh around the heart, you must see the bone deep, and then wait for the black blood to dry before the real blood can flow. Although I have not tried it, it is almost like piercing repeatedly with a special saber. The wound felt pain dozens of times, and this special method can only work if Ye Li drinks the true blood and Honora disappears completely."
"...Aonora." Rachel's voice came through the gap between her teeth.
Speechless, Rachel was completely speechless.Although he didn't spend much time with his sister who became the god of death, he could still see her state.Honora's release from the shackles of the past and the joy of fully enjoying the present made Rachel feel genuinely happy, and he even thought she would never be the same as before.
That's not free.
He hoped that Honora could be selfish and run away immediately after sensing the ominous omen.Just like that night, when she cried and said that she wanted to go home, Rachel wanted to hold her hand and take her back to the home full of dandelions and grassland full of cattle and sheep.
But she is always Honora, who lives for herself and dies for others.
"I... know where Ye Li is."
Aslan, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said.
"I saw this by accident when I was in the desert of the underworld. It was an underground palace with a large hall and a piano in the middle. Ye Li was frozen in the huge ice block behind the piano, as if asleep .”
When he carefully recalled that scene and wanted to describe the palace in detail, he recalled a figure that made his teeth itch.
"The girl who chased us before is guarding him." He forgot the name of the woman, and looked at Rachel, the angel understood, and added:
"It's jealousy that watches over him."
"That's really tricky." Canret frowned distressedly: "That underground palace is a territory of jealousy. Not only does it require special mechanisms to open the gate, but it also needs to fight against the death guards in ambush. Alas—troublesome .”
"That being the case, we have to start earlier." Rachel said righteously: "If we have to wait for reinforcements from the heavenly realm, how many innocent people will die in the human realm. The sooner we start, the better."
The two boys turned their eyes to the god of death in front of them, with eagerness in their eyes.Seeing that the two of them were bored, Canret simply threw them a map of the underworld for their study, then casually summoned a shadow attendant from the shadows, pushed them out of the study without any explanation, and threw them into the dark black-gold corridor among.
In Kanret's study room, the sound of the stove burning seemed a bit harsh, and the man couldn't help but laughed heartily.
"The children you have protected with your life will return to the edge of life and death. How do you feel, Honora? It must ignite your boundless anger again." The man stood up from the swivel chair, and the silver waist His long hair flashed a metallic luster, and he lowered his head to glance at the thick volume in his hand, and the open page was Honora's information.
I have to admit that Canret once hated Honora's platinum-blonde long hair, but he still hated it when Honora dyed her hair black, and later on the hedgehog head.
It turned out that I just simply hated a god of death like Honora.He wasn't sure until he realized Honora's death.Canret knew Rachel was her brother early on, but he selectively concealed it, just because he didn't like Honora.
The arrogance of the seven deadly sins turned out to be nothing more than an aversion to Honora, a "person" who can wholeheartedly be angry for others.
"It's just like you, like a fool." Canret opened the desk drawer and took out a painting that had been cast with the "time freeze" spell.In the brightly colored picture, the man with long silver hair stands straight behind the chair, and his aura of sword-drawing remains undiminished even though it appears in the painting.Sitting on the chair was a short man with curly black hair. The smile on his face was very similar to that of Canret outside the screen.
"I won't let that lunatic destroy your home, Satan." He lowered his head and planted a feathery kiss on the little man's face.
"Oh, I still can't believe that arrogance will come to help us, it's like a dream. And you've become too seldom, what about the good words?"
"Ordinary high school students are fine without frothing at the mouth in this environment, okay! Don't expect too much!"
In front of a mansion whose main color is black but still resplendent and magnificent, Rachel and Aslan had a rare exchange of words under strong mental pressure.The underworld is a world of eternal night, and the illumination can only rely on the faint starlight above the head. In the mist, you can vaguely see the bright lights of the ghost city in the distance.These factors didn't look scary in the ghost market, but outside the mansion in the wilderness, they looked very much like a ghost movie set in the ancient East.
Especially, the shadow waiters who surrounded the two boys.They are high-level attendants transformed from shadows, with a certain amount of intelligence, and their attack power is even stronger.
"He, why don't they have a face?" Aslan didn't dare to look up at those faceless weirdos, for he was afraid that if he met their eyes, he would suffer some terrible curse.
"Because they don't have names, only shadow waiters with names can have faces, so shadow waiters with faces are also the highest and most advanced." Rachel explained that he was not afraid at first, but the fear of the companions around him could not be ignored , aroused the curiosity of those shadow waiters who had thin feelings, and then slowly approached.
It's a bit scary indeed.Rachel said heartily.
Suddenly, a black tentacle tied Rachel's ankle without warning. Before Rachel could react, the shadow attendant picked him up from the ground and shook it left and right like he was shaking dirty clothes.
"I lost!!!" Rachel screamed.
"Rachel!"
Aslan hastily punched and kicked the shadow waiter, pulling the tentacles protruding from its abdomen.But that shadow waiter was not affected in the slightest, and concentrated on throwing Rachel's body faster and faster under the dull (eyeless) gaze of other shadow waiters.
"What are you talking about, number 130?"
In this farce, a savior-like voice came into the ears of Rachel and Aslan. They looked at the source of the voice in surprise, between the wide-open door and the two tall shadow attendants, A boy who was no more than ten years old was smoking a pipe, his brows were slightly raised.
"...I lost it." The two said in surprise in unison.
After hearing the boy's words, the shadow waiter holding Rachel made a series of strange sounds, its tone was fierce, as if it had received a long-loved gift.
"Even if you like an angel's heart, you can't make him spit it out by shaking it." The boy laughed and said, "You are a new Shadow Waiter, you haven't killed anything yet, so let me tell you, To use a knife, put—
"Alright, alright, alright! Why don't you put me down before talking about such unnutritious topics! And who are you?" Rachel, who was about to be dumped, complained loudly.
"Me?" The boy looked at himself, and suddenly realized that he had forgotten the most important self-introduction, so he beckoned the shadow waiter to stop torturing Rachel.However, although the shadow waiter obediently stopped his movements, he wrapped Rachel in his arms self-centeredly, as if he wanted to dissolve him in his body.
The underworld is really scary.Seeing that Rachel was in no danger, Aslan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with emotion in his heart.
"I am the stand-in doll No. 005, and I will take part in your battle instead of the main body. After all, I am arrogant. If the main body leaves my jurisdiction, it will plunge the ghost city into disorder."
The boy blinked his big good-looking eyes. This little stand-in doll is so similar to Canret, it is really his childhood version.But letting such a stand-in doll fight, regardless of its combat effectiveness, would make people feel uneasy.
Hire child labor.Aslan and Rachel spoke at the same time.
"But I'm still Canret, don't forget this." The young version of Canret smiled sweetly, but said these vicious words: "As long as I want, you can be shadowed by me at any time." Waiters swallow it."
The two boys could only nod.
"Now that the preparations are complete, let's set off as soon as possible. You all have read the map, our destination is very clear." Kanret said: "The Crystal Palace under the thorn forest is our goal."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and dismissed the shadow attendants, leaving only the strongest ones, and turned them into horses so that they could quickly go to the dangerous thorn forest.
"So can I turn my shadow waiter into a horse too? It has been entangled with me." Rachel reluctantly pulled out of the shadow waiter's arms, but the guy still didn't give up on him don't go.So Rachel pressed a boulder-like weight on her body, and watched with difficulty that her companions in front of her were all riding Shadow Waiter, she couldn't help shedding sad tears in her heart.
"Sorry, this one seems to only fit one person." Aslan saw that there was no room behind him, and said helplessly.
"You just run, just let us see the physical strength of the angel." After Canret said with a smirk, he rode away.
"Don't leave me ahhhh!!!"
The screams of the angels wandered in the eternal night of the underworld, and could not go away for a long time.
☆、Chapter 17
Looking up, I want to see the dark blue night sky, so as to recall my mother's almost vague murmur.But when he really raised his head, all he could see was the dark blue sky criss-crossed by several thick branches, which made it impossible to detect his true body.
"Sorry, sorry."
Invisible tears dripped on the thorns of the thorns, and then disappeared without a word.
"My birth made you feel bad, sorry."
The invisible stars went out one by one, and the air became colder and colder.
The girl is naked, and her light brown long hair has already exceeded her hips//bunk, approaching/legs/roots.The nameless ghost hiding behind the dead tree didn't dare to move, for fear that even if he made a sound like a needle falling on the ground, it would disturb the girl.
In the girl's hand, a dagger gleaming with silver light suddenly appeared, and the tip of the knife rushed towards her.It must be a sharp magic weapon, because it is absorbing the light of the moon, thus making the blade even sharper.
Then there was the black-red blood light, bursting out from the girl's body like a fountain.The dagger crazily destroyed the girl's body, but in her eyes there was only the madness of the past, and nothing else.
Such crazy self-mutilation caused the night, which was as silent as the abyss of the sea, to play a thrilling and bloody movement.
"But if I'm allowed to die." The girl smiled, her emerald green eyes gleaming with moisture: "Sure enough, I still want to die at your feet."
"Please forgive Macchiato for being capricious, Lord Satan."
"I, I, am I really not dead? I feel like I have returned to the heaven!"
Panting, Rachel lay on the back of the horse transformed from Shadow Waiter, complaining out of breath.He couldn't even remember how long he had been running, he only felt that his legs were getting heavier and heavier, and the shadow waiter wrapped around him was getting heavier and heavier.Aslan couldn't bear it, and when he planned to lend him his horse, Canret snapped his fingers, turning the shadow waiter wrapped around Rachel into a black horse.
"So why not change early if you can change from the beginning! I thought this guy was very disobedient!" Rachel complained.
"It's indeed the most disobedient among the shadow waiters, so I just used advanced spells to make him behave better." Although it was my idea to tease you, Canret added in his heart.
"So why didn't you use it earlier!"
In this tense scene, Aslan couldn't help laughing, and for a moment he forgot that he was going to the extremely dangerous depths of hell.
