"Enkidu, what is death to a human being?"

Truth asked Enkidu many questions during these days, and this was one of them.

"Probably...became greedy?"

"?"

"The dead will miss the world, but their existence will only bring sorrow to the living, so they are restricted by the rules and wander in the underworld. The longer they stay, the more they cannot let go of their obsessions, and the more they yearn for the breath of the world— —To demand something that does not belong to you is called greed.”

Even so, the green-haired boy did not have the slightest aura similar to that of a dead soul.

He was too greedy, as if he had thrown all his resentment, resentment and curses in the ****, leaving only a pure and peaceful soul to go down to the underworld.

At that time, the green ghost who was not greedy at all warned her:

"So the truth must be careful, don't be deceived by the ghosts of the underworld to lose your sense of direction."

If you make a wish to the god of water, the souls lost in the underworld can return to the world.

"—If you make a wish to me, you can also return to the human world."

The little girl with dark hair and blue eyes seemed to have no idea of ​​the weight of a promise, as casual as sharing a piece of candy with a new friend.

After a brief moment of stupefaction, Enkidu recovered his voice: "This kind of promise cannot be made casually to the people of Hades, the truth."

"Master Truth is not casual."

The conscience monster is very unconvinced.

Maybe it was just an impulse to say it at first.

It takes a lot of procedures to take a dead human from the rules of the world, which is very troublesome.If Enkidu refuses for another reason, Kuze Shinri might really find it troublesome and withdraw his preface.

But unfortunately, Enkidu stepped on her sore spot, Kuzezhen hated being casual.

Not wanting to explain any more, the little girl grabbed the boy by the collar angrily, and before Enkidu could react, she slammed into his forehead——

The conscience monster looks fleshy, but his forehead is very iron. Enkidu, who is in the state of soul, was knocked out of tears by her.His brain was dizzy, and there were stars in his eyes, but when the dizziness stopped, the stars didn't disappear——

Really stars.

Countless pure golden, bright stars are arranged in a row, emitting similar but different lights on the blue to blackened curtain.Splendid and quiet, from near to far, has been immersed in the deepest part of the invisible universe, like a group of travelers returning home, marching towards the dim window.

"Here is my memory, let me see—um! The cemetery marked Z8764."

This is what the just-dead monster of conscience turned into.

Not mature enough to be called a universe, the rules are a mess, but beautiful.

This is the only "other world" that young monsters of conscience are allowed to go to except the academy world - almost equivalent to the Qingming ancestor worship of human beings.

Every monster of conscience will only die from boredom, and will not die from any external "accident".Death is only the last choice, and even that is not even death, but a different form of existence.

Therefore, as a descendant, Kuze Zhen did not feel embarrassed at all to show others the cemetery of his ancestors.

The girl's voice was distorted, and Enkidu turned his head, only to find that she was sitting cross-legged in the air, looking at him a little proudly,

"I liked to go shopping here when I was a child, isn't it nice?"

"If you are willing to come with me, I still have a lot of scenery to show you..."

"For example, the newly formed M2688 in the past two years has a rose-colored background and no laws have yet been born. You can hold the star and shake it, and there will be small colored particles like chocolate beans splashing around—do you know chocolate? ?”

Enkidu shook his head subconsciously.

"You humans love it! I can take you to the right time so you can eat—"

It is the first time for Kuze to share his memory with human beings. Hearing from experienced seniors, he should be cautious when sharing memories, and if the operation is wrong, it may cause serious consequences.Truth, who acted impulsively once again, stared at the green dead soul with a trance-like expression, and said with some guilty conscience:

"What's the matter? Don't you like it?"

"No."

"That's what you like?"

"I……"

Enkidu imitated the little girl's appearance and crossed his legs out of thin air, but accidentally turned over with excessive force.

With the help of the truth, he sat firmly, showing a somewhat surprised and shy smile:

"I really like it."

"Thank you, Truth."

Truth is very satisfied with her Amway effect, and she is already planning in advance how to deal with the ninety-nine 81 human resurrection application procedures.

However, Enkidu did not play his cards according to common sense.

He watched tenderly the stars lined up, farther and farther away, until they disappeared, and said:

"Enough is enough, thank you, Truth."

Truth, who was thinking of lowering his head to bribe the examiner with the bunch of old men, raised his head with an "ah", but didn't understand what he meant.

"It's time for me to go back."

"……Why?!"

Truth cannot comprehend:

"If you think it's boring to just look at the stars, I can also ask them to have special features when they die, and to create more life forms-you can also use the script of your era!"

"It's not boring."

Enkidu frowned in distress, as if organizing his words, trying to appease the anxious monster of conscience:

"It's not the truth's fault, it's just my stubbornness."

"Eh?"

"I once fell down on the broken earth exhausted and watched the starry sky all night. Until the sun rose from the horizon, someone like you invited me to see the higher scenery."

Enkidu spoke softly,

"From the moment I accepted his invitation, I have made up my mind to stay by his side... Even if I miss the appointment first, I will never accept your invitation again."

Truth was a little unconvinced, and pouted to retort: ​​"How can the scenery of human beings be as beautiful as mine?"

Enkidu laughed and said: "Well, it is indeed some terrible scenery, not one ten-thousandth of yours."

"That--"

"But I have nothing to do with your past. No matter how beautiful the scenery at this moment is... it cannot be a substitute."

"Then create the future with me!" Truth, who was really angry, grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"Enkidu's future is over."

Enkidu replied quietly, rubbing the little girl's head comfortingly,

"But I just realized not long ago that the mission of the Sky Lock doesn't officially start until the moment of death. And as the price for my long-term neglect of work, it seems that I have to stay in peace for a while, so that the wayward king... Take a few more glances at the world."

In a flat tone, he spoke words that Jiu Zezhen couldn't understand:

"Let's go back."

Obviously unable to understand, the truth was intimidated by Enkidu's extremely human eyes, and he forgot to refute.

"The invitation of the truth must be accepted by someone more worthy than me."

He gently stroked the corners of the girl's eyes, using a clear and sad tone, as if looking into the depths of truth memory:

"You are also a person with an agreement."

— just forgot.

Those were discarded and forgotten memories, which made Enkidu, who had no intention of watching, feel a deep pity.
