Volume 1 The Curtain of the Night Chapter 131 After the Veil
As soon as Fred's words fell, Xia Zuo couldn't help but hold his forehead and didn't respond to Fred.
I don't think it's good at all, and I think it's weird...... Maybe it's because I've inherited the power of the subspecies Black Dragon, not the real Black Dragon Nidhogg.
Although it is said that the subspecies of black dragon also has some of the power of a true black dragon.
"I said Fred, if you really want to be direct, you might as well call this ability 'Dragonization'. Retracting the hand holding his forehead, Xia Zuo sighed and said, "This is really simple and rude, right?"
"Oh, that's called a dragon. Fred smiled, looking unconcerned.
"And, in fact, it doesn't matter what it's called, the main thing is that you can control the power. ”
"Although your current state is far more precarious than mine, with the passage of time, maybe you will become a true soul hunter master comparable to the subspecies black dragon in the future. ”
"Just like me with demonic powers. ”
"Come on, Natsuzo. Fred smiled and rubbed Natsuzo's head, making a mess of Natsuzo's hair for a while.
"Fred, you're so neat...... It's like I'm a kid and need to study hard......" Xia Zuo couldn't help but pat Fred's hand on Xia Zuo's head vigorously, and said angrily.
"Hehe, for those of us veteran soul hunters with years of experience, you're like a kid in the first place. Fred smiled.
Cut, veteran, it seems to be a powerful thing, isn't it just an elite soul hunter, wait for me to surpass you in a minute.
Xia Zuo was a little disdainful in his heart.
"So, is there anything else you'd like to say?" Fred asked, staring at Nazzo, "I always feel like there's something else you want to talk about......
"It's gone, it's gone. Xia Zuo quickly shook his head, almost letting Fred see that he seemed to have reservations, but he couldn't accidentally reveal other important information, now is not the time, at least...... You have to wait until you can control these powers.
Of course...... If I find that my situation has deteriorated to the point where there is no way to resolve it...... I'll cut myself off.
Xia Zuo thought a little preoccupied.
"Brother, what are you thinking?" Edith asked with a grin as she suddenly approached Natsuzo, her face almost touching Natsuzo's body.
"Ah...... No, nothing. Xia Zuo subconsciously took a step back, came back to his senses and quickly replied.
Too close, too close.
Even if you think of me as a brother, you can't get so close, Edith.
This made Xia Zuo involuntarily recall the scene when Edith fed herself to drink the water of the Holy Spirit...... Xia Zuo's face was slightly red.
"Brother, are you alright? your face seems to be a little red?" Ithine looked at Xia Zuo, her purple eyes with a slight inexplicable smile.
"It's okay, I'm really fine. Xia Zuo hurriedly replied, "That's all I think is for everyone." ”
"So be it. Anos looked gentle, "If you have any symptoms, please tell us in time." ”
"Elsa and Jasmine may be able to help you. ”
Elsa and Jasmine bowed slightly.
"Hehe, yes, you're going to laugh out loud when the only two women of our Night Veil come to take care of you, Shazo," Fred teased Shazo with purple eyes.
Hearing this, Elsa on the side just smiled softly, while Jasmine didn't move and seemed indifferent.
"you, you don't tease me. Shazo couldn't help but glance at Fred, then ignored Fred's playful eyes and looked at Anos.
"Captain, I see, I'll take care of myself. Xia Zuo said seriously.
"Hmm. Anos bowed slightly.
In this way, after Xia Zuo finished what he wanted to say, everyone returned to their daily routines.
Xia Zuo didn't bother them either, after all, Xia Zuo had other things he wanted to do.
Just after Xia Zuo left.
"Don't you ask him if there's anything else?" Fred asked Anos with a smile on his face that narrowed his face.
Xia Zuo's acting skills are actually very average, and Fred can still see that Xia Zuo has something to hide.
"There's no need. Anos shook his head lightly and said calmly, "The right time is the right time to say the right thing, and when the time comes, he will naturally say it." ”
"As for now...... Let him adjust his condition. Anos's eyes drooped slightly, and he said softly.
... ...
On the other side, Xia Zuo walked over to Edith, who seemed to want to go out for a walk, and wanted to stop Edith.
However, just as Xia Zuo's hand was about to touch Edith's shoulder, Edith suddenly turned her head.
The expression on Xia Zuo's face suddenly froze.
A sly smile appeared on Edith's pretty face, and then she suddenly stepped on her toes, slammed close to Xia Zuo's face, and stared at Xia Zuo's golden vertical pupils, if it was an ordinary person, she might feel fear just by looking at Xia Zuo's eyes at this time.
"Hey...... Brother, I can see that you have something to say to me. Edith playfully said, "Brother, just say whatever you want, I'll listen." ”
"Ah...... Oh good. Xia Zuo came back to his senses, "I do have something I want to talk to Edith about. ”
While speaking, Xia Zuo did not look directly into Edith's eyes, his eyes drooped slightly, and he looked a little hesitant.
"Hey, brother, your eyes ......" Ithine saw Xia Zuo's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, and was about to make fun of Xia Zuo, but suddenly stopped, "Your eyes seem to be back to their original state." ”
“...... Really?" Xia Zuo was stunned, "Returned to the way it was?"
"Yes. Edith smiled slightly, took out a mirror from the spatial ring, and handed it to Xia Zuo.
In the mirror, Xia Zuo's eyes had returned to their original appearance of normal golden eyes, no longer as intimidating as the golden vertical pupils just now.
"It seems to be really ......" Xia Zuo didn't finish his words before he got stuck again.
Because Xia Zuo's eyes changed to the same appearance just now, golden dragon-like vertical pupils.
"......" Looking at this scene, Xia Zuo's lips opened slightly, wanting to say something, but he stopped again.
Why did it become a vertical pupil again?
"Brother-sama, did you just use your power to suppress the abnormality of your eyes?" Edith's question interrupted Natsuzo's thoughts.
"Ah...... No, not yet. Xia Zuo came back to his senses, "I originally wanted to use my mental power and soul to restore my eyes to normal when I went back to rest, but the abnormality of my eyes is more difficult to suppress." ”
"Oh...... That's right. Edith narrowed her eyes, "Then I might have thought of a way to make it easy for you to control your eye anomaly, my brother." ”
"My brother's eyes should normally change with my brother's emotions. Edith explained, "When my brother is in a calm mood or hesitating, for example, when you want to speak and hesitate, your eyes will return to normal. ”
"And when your mood is more excited, or when you are full of pressure, Brother, your eyes will involuntarily change in the direction of the vertical pupil. ”
"So my brother can control his emotions. Edith smiled playfully, "This will allow her brother's eyes to return to normal without exerting much effort."
"Uh...... All right. Xia Zuo had no choice but to nod.
Controlling Emotions...... It's easier said than done.
Natsuzo retracted his thoughts, took a deep breath, and set his eyes on Edith, looking directly into Edith's eyes.
"I want to say one thing. Xia Zuo said.
"Well, brother, you say. Edith smiled.
"It's about that person, the person Andrew was talking about. Xia Zuo said seriously.
“...... Did you see him?" asked Edith, a smile on her face that froze for a moment, and after a moment of silence.
"Hmm...... I saw him. Xia Zuo nodded slightly.
"He's wearing a strange silver-white mask, and he knows Edith, so he's probably who you say he is. ”
“...... I should have thought of it a long time ago. Edith's eyes drooped slightly, "It's just that I want to ...... He'll probably see me again. ”
“...... Uh, wait Edith, I don't think he doesn't want to see him...... He just ......" Xia Zuo was speechless for a while, and he didn't know how to explain it, after all, Xia Zuo still knew almost nothing about Edith and the masked man.
"It's fine. Edith raised her eyes and looked at Natsuzo with purple eyes, "What did he say?"
"He said he's fine right now, tell you not to worry about him. Xia Zuo replied, and then his tone began to look hesitant, "Probably...... That's all. ”
“...... Isn't it good? Edith sighed softly, "That's good." ”
"By the way, brother, did you see another person beside him?" Edith asked suddenly.
"The other one...... Ah, yes, there is such a thing. Xia Zuo was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses and replied, "It's a strange girl with beautiful silver hair and red eyes." ”
She seemed very cold, not only did she not speak the whole time, but she also rarely moved. ”
"Is that so......" Edith sighed inexplicably, "is that still the case......
"What's wrong? Edith, do you know her?" asked Xia Zuo, slightly curious.
"I know, and I don't know. Edith gathered her emotions and smiled, saying the same thing as the Masked Man had said before.
This made Xia Zuo even more confused.
"Well...... Brother, don't worry about this matter yet. Edith smiled lightly at Xia Zuo, and then suddenly took Xia Zuo's hand and shook it gently, a little coquettish, "Instead of thinking about this, my brother, why don't you go out for a walk with me first?"
"Ah...... Oh well. Before Xia Zuo could say anything more, he was taken out by Edith.
... ...
Beyond the Atlantic continent, far beyond the reach of human civilization.
An unknown and mysterious continent.
The continent of Hickel.
The world seems to be shrouded in fog, human beings have not yet explored the whole world, and there are still many incredible unknown areas in the world for human beings, and the continent of Hickel is one of them.
It is a continent behind the curtain of human civilization, an unknown forbidden place, where danger hides in every corner of this mysterious continent, where all kinds of creatures die every moment.
At the same time, the remains of these dead creatures will quickly regenerate into new creatures.
Yes, new creatures are born again.
These unusually anomalous creatures...... It's a soul creature.
This is the continent of soul creatures.
The continent of Hikel, where there are soul creatures everywhere, is simply impossible for humans to reach.
And on this continent full of soul creatures, there are seven mysterious islands suspended in the sky at different heights, and there are huge iron chains between these islands, which are connected to each other.
From a distance, these seven huge islands hang high in the sky, and there are ancient and solemn huge palaces on the islands, which are magnificent, like the heavens built by the gods.
Here it is...... Headquarters of the Feast of Original Sin.
Hidden behind the veil of the world, the kingdom of God of the fallen angels.
Asgard.
