Chapter 24: Death
Deep in the No. 4 Sorcery Workshop, "Pool of Rejuvenation"
Dent: "(Negotiated with [Cersey])... Do you get it?"
Cersie: "Well, either the fish dies or the net breaks. - gritted teeth
Dent: "Where's [Robin]?"
Cersie: "(Locating [Robin] through the 'Witchcraft Doll')... He's already in the passage. ”
Dent: "Let's get started. ”
Cersie: "Okay..." - Cast "Enhancement" on [Dent]
Dent: "Hmm~... This is "Enhancement"?" - frowned
Cersie: "What's wrong?" - nervous, thinking that her sorcery had been rendered useless by [Hecate].
Dent: "(punches)... It doesn't feel like it's the same as in movies and games. ”
Cersie: "It's reality, of course it's different!"
Dent: "It's barely to the extent that the military is "strengthening people"... Can this level kill you?"
Cersie: "Kill me..."—hesitates
Dent: "Yes, didn't we discuss it just now? you will be the 'bargaining chip', and I will be the 'middleman', negotiating with [Hecate] and forcing her to change the contract or make a new covenant with you. Why, when it comes to the end, you want to regret it?"
Cersie: "I didn't want to go back, I just... Can this be done? We two mortals are going to blackmail a god. "—Worried
Dent: "As I said, I'm an atheist, and the gods you wizards believe in are nothing more than alien creatures in my eyes, and there's nothing to threaten them." As for whether it will succeed or not, I don't know, I just know that if I don't do it, I will definitely not succeed. ”
Cersey: "I'm afraid it's all in vain in the end." - Pessimistic and lost, lonely and helpless
Dent: "Even then, you're going to have to fight to the end! And even if you lose in the end, the result won't be much worse for you." Let's do it with the consciousness of death!" - encouragement, encouragement
Cersie: "Together?"
Dent: "Do you think I'll be able to get out of it if I fail?"
Cersie: "No, if you fail, [Hecate] won't let you go... (on second thought) if you succeed, [Hecate] may not let you go... Why are you willing to take your life for me? Why are you..."
"Bao, Bao" - footsteps came from the passage
Dent: "I'll talk about it later, he's coming!" - interrupts
Cersie: "..."—Prepare for witchcraft
Robin: "The Witch..."—"Carrying the upper body of the [Channawe] (witchcraft puppet) appears at the entrance of the passageway
Channawei (witchcraft puppet): "..."——strangled Robin's neck
Robin: "(Recognises the sorcery that Cersie has prepared)..."Petrification"? "—I don't care
Cersie: "I know. —After speaking, release the "petrification" at himself (time limit)
In the blink of an eye, [Cersie] turned into a stone statue
Robin: "(See [Dent]... Why?"—stopped, making a "threatening" gesture
Dent: "Let me explain it to you. "—Respectfully
Robin: "..."—his dark eyes stared at [Dent] in a daze, silent
Dent: "[Cersie] wants to use her own flesh as a 'bargaining chip' to blackmail you, forcing you to change your contract or make a new contract with you. As you can see, Cersei has transformed herself into a stone statue, and it is difficult for you to withdraw your soul and use her body as a 'substitute'. - Eloquently
Robin: "Why are you here?"
Dent: "[Cersei] considered that you must have a way to remove her petrification, so she arranged for me to be here to break the stone statue when you refused her threat, and throw the pieces into the Pool of Resurrection, so that my physical body will never recover. ”
Robin: "Hmph, these little tricks of yours..." - grabs Chanawe's arm and breaks it
Chana Wei (witchcraft puppet): "(Falls to the ground)..." - squirms, crawls to Robin's feet, and bites Robin's calf Achilles tendon hard
Robin: "Do you think you can use this to hide the eyes of [Death] (one of the five great creator gods, representing the manifestation of all specific forms of the end of life in the entire multiverse)!?" - Possesses himself, twists the neck of Channawei (the witchcraft doll), and throws his head at [Dent]
Dent: "(catches, [Qian Nawei]'s head changes back to its original shape in his arms)... Death first, then life. Life is accidental, death is inevitable. I never thought that such a trick would be able to hide from you. ”
Robin: "Trick with me?"
Dent: "Don't dare. I have no intention of deceiving you, life and death are certain, and it is beyond human power to reverse it, her life... (Discard the head of the 'witch puppet') is yours. ”
Robin: "It's not life or death that you want to turn around. ”
Dent: "I also have no intention of interfering with you to find [Cersei] to 'ask for debts', when [Cersie] signed a contract with you in exchange for her youthful body, now that you have withdrawn her soul and taken away her body, she is entirely to blame." —Stand aside, give up [Cersie] to show your attitude
Robin: "Don't go around in circles with me. Tell me, why are you here?" - regardless of [Cersei], not to [Dent].
Dent: "I was brought here by [Cersei] as an 'intermediary'..."
Robin: "No way! witches don't have that ability!" - interrupts
Dent: "What kind of ability does this require..."
Robin: "Still playing dumb with me!?" (steps forward and grabs [Dent]'s collar)... As fate would have it, you should never have been in front of me at this moment!Why!Why are you here!?"—dragged in front of me, and the two looked at each other closely
Dent: "I..." - panicked
Robin: "Huh~?you have two souls?" - see through
Dent: "Let go of me!" - breaks free and slumps to the ground
Robin: "I see... Dolls and witches are all your tricks... Your true purpose is to appear here and now, to disrupt the flow of the River of Time. "—punctured
Dent: "What are you talking about?" - pretending not to understand
Robin: "Don't you understand? Okay, I'll change it to something you can understand, your presence here at this moment will make the 'world line' change rate by more than one percent." ”
Dent: "..."—his face turned pale
Robin: "I got it right!?
Dent: "Another world?" - puzzled
Robin: "I'm the source, creator, and manipulator of all living souls in the multiverse, and it's easy to retrace your world through your soul if I want to... (Launching a backtrack) huh!?" - stunned
Dent: "..."—quietly gets up
Robin: "[Eternal] This guy... Don't say a word to me..."—muttered
Dent: "..."—to take advantage of the opportunity
Robin: "(Turns his head suddenly)..." - glaring at [Dent]
Dent: "..."—don't dare to move
Robin: "You're in luck, boy. "—laughs
