The setting sun, which has already reached half of the horizon, reflects an old shrine by the river.
At the entrance of the shrine, under the torii, stood a girl who looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old.
She was wearing a pure black kimono with various gorgeous flowers painted on it. Her eyes were red, her hair was jet black, she had a princess cut and a shawl straight hair, and her doll-like face had no expression at all.
The girl was holding a broom that was a little too long for her, and was sweeping the ground with difficulty, trying to...
...Sweep up the "minced meat" all over the floor. The name "minced meat" is not accurate. It should be said that it is a kind of dark pieces with soft material, texture, and almost completely burnt surface. They are large In batches, the overall shape is sputtered and tiled in a fan shape from the direction of the main entrance torii gate.
After entering, the small square in front of the shrine is almost completely covered.
After a long time, the girl finally gathered all the broken pieces into a pile, but the sunset, which was half gone, never set.
"Don't pretend to be dead," the girl threw the broom aside, looked at the pile of things, and said in a cold voice that fit her appearance: "This 'part' is enough for you to speak, Dormammu."
"[I just want to give it a try,]" the fragments vibrated and said in a layered voice: "[If I keep silent, will you go out and look for more 'fragments'?"
"No," the girl replied, "I will judge the experiment as a failure, and then burn the garbage to make fertilizer."
As if in line with her words, on the side of the shrine, beside the dark-colored river, one after another, the flowers from the other side grew, bloomed, and then withered.
"[Has anyone ever said that you have a bad character? Mephisto?]" The fragments shook.
"Yes, they are all in hell." The girl replied.
"[...]"
After a brief silence, Yuzhuang "spoke" again: "[Was your plan discovered, or was it mine?]"
"If I had to guess, they were all discovered." The girl stepped on wooden clogs and came to the main entrance of the shrine and sat down, holding a cup of tea that had been placed there for a long time: "But obviously you are more annoying."
"[Isn't it because you are dressed like this that she can't do it?]"
"You only need to change your appearance to make your negotiating opponent give in, why not do it?" The girl took a sip of tea: "And the 'Lord of Dimension' does not have such a thing as gender." "[Those monsters, aggregates or... The amorphous guy may be, but 'Selatok' just destroyed a space nomadic tribe that made him a female transformation statue, and 'White Star',]" Broken Block paused: "[Firm
Let all her family members call her ‘she’.”
"What about you?" The girl turned her head and glanced at Broken Block: "Is it because Uma wants a brother instead of a sister?"
The fragment was silent. ", 'All dark things belong to me', 'This is Bai Xing asking me for help', 'I want to seize that part of the power'," the girl took another sip of tea: "I'm just looking for help for my sister. The lost toy is just a stupid brother who is afraid of losing face.
"[That has nothing to do with our deal,]" the pile of fragments continued to vibrate: "[I have completed the contract and will share with you the research results of 'Void Breeds' and 'Dark Elves', so that you can learn new things." Recruited 'Green Lanterns' can be recruited as 'Beasts'
His identity bestows the ‘power of evolution’ on those mortals.]”
Broken Block paused and tried to sarcastically say in the other person's tone: "[This is to cover up the joke about the last 'beast' being abducted by a mortal."
"It's true," the girl drank the tea and put the cup down: "But it's not me who was cut in two and shattered to pieces."
"[...]" "And, why do you think I want a 'Green Lantern' to replace the 'Beast'?" The girl turned to pick up the refreshments next to the tea tray: "Because of the 'Lamp' and the 'Beast', given time , he should be able to become the 'lantern beast' of a new lantern group
, maybe the ‘Infrared Legion’?”
"[Did you bring that troublesome Green Lantern Corps leader here?]" The fragment shook: "[Although he hasn't taken action yet, but——]" "It's the 'subspace evil god'," the girl interrupted the fragment: "The 'ancient ghost' who arranged for us to join Odin's territory, through a loophole, changed the original contract of 'granting power and causing mutations based on power' to 'devotion'.
"Listen to wishes and mutate according to the content of wishes," which resulted in the introduction of "instruments of desire" that generally do not interfere with the real dimension, and a group of "hounds" that come to hunt or eliminate its power."
"[Oh~The loophole in the contract~]" Broken Piece said in a long tone.
"..." The girl raised her hand and threw the two-bitten tea cake into the pile of broken pieces. "[Bah,]" the broken pieces vibrated and popped out the piece of tea cake: "[So, it was 'White Star' who asked her to deliberately The little kid who trained the successor invited the Black Lantern from Hela to kill us? And satisfy the thirst by the way.
Utensils’?]”
"First of all, you are the only one who gets chopped," the girl replied, "Secondly, you are the one who solves it by the way."
"[You can't speak without sarcasm, can you!]" Broken Piece was furious: "[When I put the body together, we will fight to the death!]"
"Is there a possibility that I did it on purpose?" The girl stood up with the tea cup and tea tray, threw them all into the money box behind her, then pulled down the rope decorated with bells and clapped her hands.
Wow…
A sound like a surging river came from the money box, accompanied by some kind of hoarse and strange voice that could not distinguish between male and female:
【I receive your resentment.】
"[Hiss——]" Broken Block forgot to be angry for a moment: "[As far as I know, the shrine is a place where gods are enshrined, and the gods enshrined by the 'Lord of the Hell Dimension'...]"
"It's [Death]," the girl turned and looked at the pile of broken pieces on the ground: "I just prayed for you. At the cost of you being dragged into hell, I will kill the murderer who cut you like this. You're welcome."
"[...%#@!]" Broken Block was so angry that he jumped on the spot and couldn't form a sentence.
"You're just working for me for a period of time," the girl said, flipping up her straight black hair hanging beside her ears: "I don't know why, but recently fewer and fewer people fear me."
"[...It's strange that someone would be in awe of you,]" the fragments were piled up again, making overlapping sounds: "[But that is the 'Black Lantern'. Although I don't know how many layers apart, it is still [Death]
]'s subordinate.]"
"That's not the 'Black Lantern'. Even if the 'Black Death Emperor' of the 'Black Lantern Corps' takes action, they will at most drive you back to the 'Dark Dimension' instead of spreading it all over the place like this," the girl paused.
Dun: "That's a 'Lord of Dimension'."
"[What dimension? Why didn't I feel it?]" "You were chopped into pieces at the same time you felt it," the girl said before the fragments became angry again: "Remember that madman, the fallen Lord of the Flame Dimension?
'What are you saying? 'The world will burn','
All that remains is ashes.” “And she is the [Lord of the Ashes Dimension].”
