044 When she's no longer beautiful
The promenade, as always, is so dark that you can't see the top, and it is also annoying. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Lord Death changed his habit and walked fast, leaving Asuna far behind. He rarely makes himself so angry. He almost never gets angry with someone else, because that's punishing himself for someone else's mistakes.
But this time, Lord Death was angry, and very angry, so angry that he didn't know what expression to use for a moment. He was even worried that he would do something out of the ordinary, so he left there early.
He was about to blow up.
It's just that, under the girl's stubborn gaze, he finally loses, as if he has never had a slight advantage in the confrontation between the two. Women never reason, their very existence is the truth. All those who try to reason with women will die a miserable death. So even if Lord Death had more reasons to be angry, he couldn't say anything. In the end, the only way to do this is to protest silently.
The sound of stampeding echoed alternately on the stairs, and it was the Grim Reaper who deliberately stomped his footsteps very loudly. Finally, after about a minute, he finally saw the top. Glancing back, seeing that Asuna had not yet come up, she went down a few steps, and thrust the sickle into the wall next to the staircase, and stuck it in, splitting the staircase in half.
Originally, this was supposed to be indestructible terrain, but any game rules are equivalent to nothing for Lord Death. He is not bound by these rules at all. If he wanted to, he could even just cut the stairs into pieces. Before, he couldn't, but now he can. Because his strength is no longer comparable.
If in the past he could only rely on his instinct to dodge bullets in a killing state, now Lord Death can even shoot himself and intercept the bullet with his bare hands, just like in the movie. It's not a lot worse. This is already beyond ordinary people, that is, what people call superhuman realms.
And the reason why he wants to lay the sickle here is simple. He didn't want anyone to bother him next. Lord Death was furious, and he didn't mind cutting anyone who dared to come up to pieces and kicking them down. That scythe is the best threat.
Finally, Lord Death thought about it, took out his notebook and wrote, "Death to those who come close!" The words were attached to the handle of the sickle before continuing to walk up. There are about two laps left before the top.
He wasn't worried at all about whether Asuna would come. She'll definitely come. I believed in her as if I believed in myself. If only here, no one knows Asuna better than Lord Death. Lord Death even knows Asuna's birthday, love and dislike.
Sit at the end, hold your head and wait for that moment to come. It's as if the first time they separated, it was completely reversed. This time it was no longer her who walked in front, she was waiting for him at the end.
Lord Death knew exactly what she wanted, and what she wanted. This is also what makes him extremely angry.
He was already able to do it, and even when the boss only had a tube of blood left, he was absolutely confident that he could directly kill the boss with a scythe, and he wouldn't even give it a chance to unfold its second form. His attacks ignore defenses, and naturally he ignores his ridiculous invincibility. However, he never moved, and just watched from the sidelines.
It was she who stopped him.
The tacit understanding between them is even higher than Lord Death imagined. In that chaotic situation, they can still look at each other smoothly and complete wordless eye contact. Asuna's message to him is simple: never meddle.
Only then did he realize that there was a pact between them.
If Asuna successfully manages the entire game, he must unconditionally agree to Asuna's one condition. But what happens if Asuna loses? Neither she nor he ever raised the question.
She doesn't want to lose, there's no doubt about it.
Lord Death's gaze followed her, never looking away. So he knew exactly what was going on from start to finish. At the moment when the boss jumped, Asuna was inevitably blown back by the wind pressure brought by the boss. And unfortunately, there happens to be terrain destroyed by the boss. Naturally, she fell into the pit and fell to pieces. By the time I got back up, it was too late to escape.
Naturally, Lord Death was the first to do it. He had only intended to save Asuna, and no matter what, he couldn't watch her die. At that moment, it was not the so-called "Heavenly Dao" that stopped him, but Asuna herself.
They made a second eye contact in an instant. The same light flashed in her eyes, like a desperate gambler.
Lord Death was silent, and the pace that had already been taken out slowed down, but slowly, step by step, walked under the boss. With each step, he felt as if something was shattering. Not the broken dirt he had stepped on along the way, nor the messy bricks on the ground. He wanted to dig out his heart and throw it on the ground and step on it. But he couldn't, neither before nor now. So, he chose to be calm.
Gradually, he crumpled his usual calmness into a ball and threw it on the ground as non-recyclable waste, and then stomped a few times mercilessly, and made up a few sickles to completely turn it into unrecognizable garbage.
He didn't choose to listen to Asuna at all, but went down with a scythe and chopped up the boss. Turning his head, he looked at Asuna not far away, and couldn't hold back the disappointment in his eyes. He didn't know what kind of expression he should use, but he just expressed what he thought of on his face most intuitively.
She finally came, and walked over the scythe and calmly before Lord Death, without the slightest guilt or other expression on her face.
Lord Death just stared straight at her, not saying a word. He wondered what Asuna was thinking.
Even if he was a nerd, a wood, and didn't understand anything about feelings, he knew how to explain his feelings at this time. It's terrible, it's like my expectations have been betrayed and trampled on the ground.
"You shouldn't have done that, didn't we have an agreement?" She whispered, her voice irrepressible in her voice.
Lord Death pursed his lips and suddenly laughed, cold as cold as no temperature: "Is this your explanation?" ”
Asuna didn't speak, bowing her head slightly.
That was the last bit of self-esteem she had left. She didn't want the bet to end, not at all. Even if she is cheating, she wants to keep the bet going.
But unexpectedly, Lord Death did not show a disappointed expression, but slowly stood up and walked in front of her. Then, he slowly raised his hand and slapped her in the face of her incredulous gaze.
Lord Death knew exactly what he was doing, and he knew what the consequences would be. But he did it anyway. He was worried that if he didn't do something again, he would just take out his scythe and cut it directly in the next second. He was about to explode, and his anger level had exploded, and he was even more angry than just now.
