The cigarette butt was so hot that it smoked in the palm of her hand. Just now, Shiffrin tried her best and couldn't leave a mark on Ash's soul, but now Death Maniac casually burned it and made Ash purse his lips and tremble slightly.
"Does it hurt?" "No!"
"Then let's iron it for another five minutes."
"Hey, hey--" Ya Xiu took his hands back and rubbed them, his balls hurting and said, "Is that enough?"
"Are Veela and vampires together only worth five minutes in your heart?" Death Man threw away the cigarette butts and sneered: "As expected, they are just playthings for you to relieve loneliness in your spare time, right?"
Ash's body froze. After struggling for a moment, he held out his hands with a look of death: "Two hands, five more minutes!" "Only five more minutes?"
"Then... ten minutes?"
The death maniac stretched out his finger and flicked Ash's forehead, took out a cigarette from the cigarette case, and said coldly: "What do you think I am, a priest who redeems the world? I want to atone for your sins. You can go to Sonia later to accept your punishment." , I just don’t like you and want to torture you.”
Ash quickly lit a cigarette for her, and the tobacco made a clear crackling sound. He had always suspected that the cigarette that Death Kuang smoked might be some kind of Noble Phantasm, otherwise there was no way to explain why cigarettes could burn through the soul and sear the soul. Ash used it every time. Various medical miracles tried to relieve the pain, but the more he resisted, the deeper the pain became. In the end, he had no choice but to accept the punishment.
"Each piece of tobacco is woven from the souls of ten thousand creatures. A cigarette contains 800 pieces of tobacco, totaling eight million souls. With every puff, hundreds of thousands of souls are wiped out."
"What!?" Asher was stunned. He had also taken a few puffs of Death Kuang's cigarette before.
"But I'm not the soul-eating pervert of Youma." Death Maniac Youyou said: "Soul products have no appeal to me." Ash breathed a sigh of relief: "So it's fake?"
Death Maniac glanced at him sideways, with a playful curve at the corner of his mouth, took a deep puff, blew out a smoke ring towards his face, and showed a mischievous smile: "What do you think?"
Since you won’t tell me why you suddenly mentioned this!
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Ash seemed to be able to hear the wail of the soul from the burning tobacco. He quickly put the matter out of his mind and looked down at the remains of the Four Pillar Gods lying quietly on the ground.
A full-coverage helmet with four extremely rough and ferocious corners, a simple and weird mask with a black and white painted face, a very thin and fragile glass skull, and a skull made of dozens of pieces of different races, genders and ages. Bizarre human face with biological skin sewn together.
Without any testing, Ash can confirm that these are the bones of the Four Pillar Gods, and may even be their original bodies. He thought that the original bodies of the Four Pillar Gods must be very evil and radioactive sources of horrific pollution, but in fact they were unexpectedly "refreshing". For example, a A high-explosive bullet can turn a person's upper body into a bloody and chaotic mess, but the anti-material sniper rifle that shoots high-explosive bullets is very exquisite... The remains of the Four Pillar Gods gave Ash the feeling of Anti-material sniper rifles are tools full of regularity and beauty.
They are the embodiment of concepts, and it is impossible to describe them with the moral concepts fabricated by intelligent beings such as good and evil, right and evil. Violence, knowledge, life, and lust, these should only exist in literal terms, but Ash can extract them from the remains of the Four Pillar Gods. Here you can clearly see how these concepts work, and it's almost like -
"Does it look like a magic spirit?" Death Kuang said: "Or should I say it is a god?" Ashi was startled: "The Four Pillar Gods are gods?"
Death Maniac asked back: "Then do you think the golden fish and the white cow are gods?" Ashus shook his head thoughtfully, "They should be a...phenomenon?"
"The difference between the four-pillar gods and the fish and cows is that they are phenomena with self-awareness. They are not gods, because gods are the embodiment of rules. That is to say, when gods appear, it means that the corresponding "rules" are also fixed.
, it is said that before the birth of the flame god, the flame may freeze... And phenomena are not rules. Rules can form phenomena, but phenomena do not necessarily have rules. Like fish and cows, like the four-pillar gods, there are no specific rules.
Explain their power.”
Death Kuang paused and shook his head: "No, you shouldn't say that. In fact, there are many rules that can explain their power, such as the blood magic soul to the tyrant, the prophecy of the truth
It is like a female zodiac sign, a weak dead soul is like a loving father, and spiritual control is like a prince... Some magic schools are developed by magicians themselves, but some magic schools are born under the inducement of the Four Pillar Gods.
In the terrifying era when the Four Pillar Gods came to the earth, because they were too close to the Four Pillar Gods, magicians would instinctively explore their phenomena, create their rules, and in turn inhibit their power."
"You can understand that the four-pillar gods and the magician civilization are always in a tug-of-war. The four-pillar gods want to pull the magician civilization into the abyss of desire and usurp the virtual realm from the bottom up - have you forgotten? The magician's touch of the virtual realm controls everything
A magician can control the virtual realm." Death Kuang immediately added after seeing the confusion in Ash's eyes.
"There have indeed been times in history where the Four Pillars Gods have the upper hand, but once a magician becomes the touch of the Four Pillars Gods, they will go deep into their phenomena and create their rules. Once the rules are created, the Four Pillars Gods will lose this part of their power.
So the magician civilization pulled the rope back and regained the upper hand."
"Although it is not the main plot, the tug-of-war between the four pillar gods and the magician civilization has indeed run through history up to now."
Ash thought for a while and was a little confused: "That's not right. Magician civilization has been advancing and creating new rules. The power of the four pillar gods should be compressed to a very small size, but I feel that although they dare not follow
The Divine Lord can resist, but it’s not very weak.”
Death Maniac glanced at him, "Although the Four Pillar Gods have no brains, when the civilization of magicians progresses, they also progress with them."
"Take the prince's power of indulgence as an example. Is the entertainment program you looked forward to in Broken Lake Prison the same as the entertainment program you look forward to now when you have a large group of lovers? The same goes for the magician civilization. The extravagance of tens of thousands of years ago is not the same as the indulgence of today.
Corruption, which level do you think is higher?"
"The more a magician creates rules of violence, the more cruel violence is born; the more he pursues truth, the more he discovers the unknown; the more he pursues immortality, the more he feels he still has shortcomings; the more indulgent he is, the more he discovers the unknown.
The more difficult it is to be satisfied."
"So the four pillar gods are not gods. They are always in the darkness outside the edge of magician civilization, but only the rules within civilization are gods. They are occasionally beacons of progress, and more often are decoys for depravity. They are history and the present
, is also the future and is an eternal phenomenon.”
"Then how do you kill them?" Ash asked.
"Just go into the God's Domain, catch them like they're dogs, and then cut off their heads with a sword." Ash was speechless: "Isn't it fun to tease me?"
"Do you have any objections?" Dead Man looked at him coldly. "No!"
The death maniac kicked the helmet away from his feet, took a puff of cigarette and then slowly said: "The four-pillar gods are an eternal phenomenon, but the consciousness of the four-pillar gods is not an eternal life. In fact, the four-pillar gods have changed for several generations.
For the God Lord, although it is troublesome to enter the realm of God and kill those four disgusting beasts, it is not impossible. For me, it is easier. Basically, every time we arrive at a new world line, the first
One step is to kill the four pillar gods-
"Wait a minute!" Ya Xiu suddenly reacted and looked at Death Maniac blankly: "You have entered the realm of God...have you descended into this world?"
Death Kuang looked at the bewildered Ash, feeling a little irritated for some reason. He took a puff of cigarette and said unhappily: "Didn't you kiss Sonia just now? Why did you taste the smoke from her mouth?
Tasty?"
"so······?"
"You paid 3/4 of your soul. Although we cannot come to the world yet, it is still very easy to enter the realm of God through you." Death Man said calmly: "You are our touch."
Ash took a long breath and calmed down: "So that's it..." "Then let's talk about the Four Pillars-"
"What about Rose?" Ash asked nervously, "You didn't hurt her, did you?"
"Rose?" Death Man raised his eyebrows: "You don't mean... the fifth pillar god, right? She hasn't woken up yet, so of course I haven't dealt with her... But now she is a normal person
I can’t satisfy you anymore. Which trash can did you climb out of? Even the evil god is within your hunting range?”
"Rose is not an evil god." Ash said seriously: "I am her only believer, she is my only belief."
"But she will be sooner or later." Death Man sneered: "Fish sellers will always have the smell of fish, and predators will have their mouths full of blood. This matter has nothing to do with her wishes, but as long as she sits in the position of the Pillar God
, the darkness at the edge of magician civilization will definitely become an evil god that seduces all living beings into corruption... How can the direction deviate from the arrow, how can the sunlight deviate from the sun, and how can the pillar god go against the entropy increase? "
"Then we'll talk about it sooner or later." Ashi said firmly.
"If it really does happen, it will be better sooner or later." Death Man raised his chin, with a hint of malice in his eyes: "I really want to see your remorse. How much you love them now, and how much you will hate them in the future.
····I really want to see the fate you deserve.”
"How could I hate them?"
"You dare to ask this question because you are currently in a passionate relationship, and there is huge external pressure forcing you to unite." Death Man said: "Rather than saying that you are compromising with each other, it is better to say that you have no conflict of interest at all.
Even Sonia is just possessive. It's like youthful love on campus, always on the road, always looking ahead."
"But you will settle down sooner or later. Girls will not always be in love, and neither will you. Then the torture will begin." She sneered: "The novelty will fade and the relationship will become dull, and then we will get tired of each other.
, in the end they hate each other, and we only continue to be together because of interests and inertia...Why, do you dare to say that you can treat her like before?"
"Even if you dare to promise, who dares to say that you will never change? Lysdia can pester you like a silly girl now, and she will still be so naive and ignorant in a few years? You Lanweise only hopes that you can embrace happiness now.
, when you really soak in the honey pot of happiness, will she really not plan for herself? Vichy... When possessing you can realize "love" and "ideal" at the same time, what will she do?
It’s not surprising.”
"I won't mention Sonia. The only reason she is willing to tolerate it is that your adventure is not over yet." "The most wonderful thing is not that they have changed, but that you will find that you have also changed."
The death maniac said almost like a curse: "When you find that you no longer love, everything in the past will become unbearable to look back on, and everything you think is important now will become ridiculous... Even your rhetorical question now will be extremely...
Comedy effect."
"I really want to see how embarrassed you will be then...but I can't see it anymore."
Ya Xiu remained silent until the death maniac finished speaking, then he said: "I have actually thought about what you said, but I am not too worried because I already have a preliminary solution."
"What plan, use a miracle?"
"No, for example, you mentioned the issue of freshness, and I totally agree with it. Even if you stay with someone you like every day, you might get bored." Ashiu said, "But I have four operators, so I'll tentatively think it's just them.
There are a total of 15 combinations of them ranging from single, double, triple and four persons. That is to say, if there is one combination every day, I can rotate it every half a month. In this way, not only everyone has a private space, but also a little bit every day.
There are differences..."
Death Kuang stared blankly at Yaxiu's talk. Finally, he sighed helplessly and waved to him: "Stretch out your palm." "If you don't think it's okay, we can discuss it!"
"I don't want to discuss it, I just want to torture you and make you tired just looking at you."
When Ash was grabbed by Death Maniac, he suppressed his smile and said seriously: "I know we can't be the same forever, but I don't think we will go to the ending you mentioned. Don't forget, before we became lovers, we were
We have been teammates who have overcome all obstacles. If one day we really quit our love, it means that we should find a more suitable relationship."
"The only thing I can promise is that I will never give up on Sonia, and I believe she will never let me go."
"So leave Sonia to me!" Ash grabbed Death Kuang's hand and said seriously: "I will definitely make her happy...!" The corners of Death Kuang's mouth twitched slightly as he smoked.
: "Do you want to call me mom?"
"Ah, aunt? No, it's my sister, sister, sister—"
Ash covered his palms and dug his toes into the ground in pain, looking at Death Kuang. Death Kuang with a depressed look on his face.
Smoking slowly to calm down my mood, I squeezed out a few words: "I'm too lazy to care about you."
"Thank you." Ya Xiu was quite happy to be recognized by Death Maniac, but he soon became depressed: "Although there are only two months left, I still have the confidence to make Sonia happy for two months..."
Death Maniac asked calmly: "Do you know why I want to kill the Four Pillar Gods?"
"Killing them can buy more time for this world?" Ashus guessed: "If the holiday is extended, I may really have to take them to challenge the stars..."
"I just said that the four pillar gods exist in the past, present, and future. Even if the golden river is cut off, the virtual realm collapses, and the world is destroyed, they will still exist, but the form of existence will change. For magicians who want to cross the world line
As far as I am concerned, there is no medium more suitable to serve as a guide than the Four Pillar Gods."
"The Four Pillars Gods also have a characteristic. Before the Four Pillars Gods die and are reborn, their powers are in a state that anyone can occupy, but only the Four Pillars Gods Touch can steal their powers. If enough is stolen, the Touch can even become
The new four-pillar god."
"That is to say"
Death Maniac said word by word: "We are now the Four Pillar Gods."
