Chapter Fifty-Six: Real Name
"Squeak" Mephistopheles pushed the door open, and inside the door, Rex hung his head as if he hadn't noticed someone had entered the room.
"How's it going, are you still used to living there?" Mephistopheles asked with a smile.
"Mephistopheles!" Rex raised his head suddenly, his eyes had completely turned blood-red, and then Rex turned into a cloud of black mist and swooped directly towards Mephistopheles.
Caught off guard, Mephistopheles rushed out of the door under the black mist, and the guards outside the door were stunned by the sight. Mephistopheles slammed into the wall, the force of which was so powerful that it avoided a large hole in the solid wall.
"This power, this feeling. Mephistopheles wiped the blood from his mouth, his eyes blazing. "Finally resurrected?"
"It's rare for you to be negligent to this extent. Rex smiled grimly, "I've been completely resurrected, and now there is no man named Rex in this world!
"I've finally reclaimed my real name, Faust. Mephistopheles stood up from the ground, "The dark being I have created, the one whose blood flows, Faust, welcome back." ”
"Don't celebrate too early. Faust raised an eyebrow and said, "Until then, I have some things to do." ”
"What do you want to do?"
"Of course I'm fighting you, Mephistopheles!" laughed Faust, "I've thought so for a long time, and now it's an opportunity!"
At this time, the guards who had just been shocked had already surrounded Faust, but Faust only glanced at the guards around him with great contempt.
"Stand down!" Mephistopheles commanded, "you can't fight him, you won't be able to survive even a round." ”
Then he looked at Faust and said, "Then I will accept your challenge, and by the way, see how much your strength has recovered!"
"Very good!" Faust's voice turned into a black mist and attacked Mephistopheles, and almost at the same time, Mephistopheles also turned into a black mist, and the two black mist swallowed each other in mid-air.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them returned to their original forms at the same time, fists collided violently with each other, dark purple light bullets bombarded each other, and the huge energy knew that the guards around them could barely open their eyes at all.
Explosions rang out everywhere, walls collapsed, and the two men scuffled to another room, where the entire room was reduced to rubble in a cloud of fire.
"The strength has been fully restored, Faust. Mephistopheles looked at Faust and said.
"You're still as strong as ever, Mephistopheles!" Faust said as he kicked Mephistopheles.
"Of course, after all, I'm the acting commander of the current territory!" Mephistopheles grabbed Faust's foot with one hand, and several dark purple light bullets flew from his back towards Faust.
"Boom!" Faust kicked Mephistopheles in the arm again, and he pulled out the foot that Mephistopheles had caught, and his whole body spun upside down in the air one hundred and eighty degrees, deftly dodging all the light bullets.
"End this fight with the final blow!" Faust gathered all his strength into his right fist, and he quickly charged at Mephistopheles.
"As you wish, Faust!" Mephistopheles also gathered all his strength into his fist, a dazzling purple light flashed, and the huge force directly knocked the guards away.
"You should be satisfied with this time. Mephistopheles said, "It's time to get down to business, Faust." ”
"Okay. Faust glanced at his right hand and replied, "Now that I'm pretty much in the know, it's time to get down to business." ”
The surroundings were in utter ruins, at least five or six rooms had been completely destroyed, the walls were littered with signs of damage from the battle, and the floors were covered with deep pits of energy bombardment, and the guards stood up with their foreheads trembling.
"Let's talk about it in another place. Mephistopheles turned to leave, and Faust snorted coldly, but finally took a step to keep up with Mephistopheles.
Mephistopheles stopped at the door of a room, he reached out and pushed it open, and Faust entered the room.
The room was austere, with only a large table on it, and on it a huge map.
"Sit down. Mephistopheles waved Faust to sit down, and then pulled a chair herself and sat down across from him.
"I know what you're trying to say. "I'll help you, for if even you fail, there's no place for me in this world." ”
"I know you're going to agree. Mephis nodded, "But the most important thing right now is not this, it's about yourself." ”
"Myself?" Faust scratched his hair, "I see, you still wonder if Rex has completely disappeared from this world, right?"
Mephistopheles nodded noncommittally.
"Then I will answer you, he has not completely disappeared from this world. Faust said in a flat tone.
"And where is he?" Mephistopheles asked calmly.
"He is who I am, I am who he is. We're all one, in other words, Faust is Rex, and Rex is Faust now. ”
"How did you do that?" Mephistopheles asked, narrowing her eyes.
"It's not that hard for me. In fact, I've been controlling his body for a long time, but I haven't been able to erase his existence completely, and that's why that's what happened. ”
"The body that still has his presence has attacked you, and his soul is indeed very strong, and he can break free from my control for a short time, which I didn't expect before. ”
"Go on. Mephistopheles said.
"Then it would be better to take another approach, in that cell, the darkness in his heart grew day by day, but he always maintained the last shred of self-awareness, and in the end, I finally found the best way. ”
"That's soul fusion. Faust said reluctantly, "I have finally become one with him, and his memories are also present in my body, so that I am completely resurrected as Faust." ”
"Why isn't it his will that dominates this body?" Mephistopheles still had a hint of suspicion.
"Because his consciousness has been shattered because of you. Faust smiled, "In that desperate situation, he had to choose this method in the end, and I owe you all thanks for all this." ”
"That's right. Mephistopheles finally didn't have any doubts, "So what are you going to do with Chikusa Wakaba?"
"As I said, Faust is Rex. Faust looked at Mephistopheles and said, "So you don't need me to say more, you should know what to do, right?"
"Keeping her alive and unharmed, right?"
"You don't know. Faust yawned, "No one must be allowed to hurt a finger of her, or you will bear the consequences." ”
"It seems that soul fusion also has drawbacks. Mephistopheles smiled and said, "Because I've inherited Rex's memories, it's impossible to hurt that woman anyway." ”
"She doesn't matter anyway. Faust leaned back in his chair and said, "What if she is allowed to live?"
"You're right. Mephistopheles acquiesced to Faust's request.
"By the way, be careful of that Renault guy. Faust said suddenly.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Do you think that since that man is still alive, he will not take action in this war?"
"You're saying he could go to hell?"
"I don't need to remind you that you should take that into account. Faust said, "We have all fought against him, and we have seen the strength of that man." ”
"yes. Mephistopheles subconsciously covered her abdomen, "The wound he left me still can't heal, as a human being, he is really the most terrifying existence I have ever seen." ”
"It's likely that humanity has already discovered the fact that he's still alive, so it's bound to lead him into battle again, which is not a good thing. ”
"On top of that, we still have a lot of headaches internally. Mephistopheles said, "Mammon has betrayed us, the Legion of Hell has been greatly weakened, and unless Lord Satan returns, we will be at a real disadvantage." ”
"You're really loyal to him. Faust said absently, "Unlike you, I don't owe allegiance to anyone." ”
"Without that Lord, there would be no hell now, and without hell there would be no us, and don't forget, Faust, that you were also created by me. ”
"If you're going to make me swear allegiance to you on that basis, I'd advise you to save it, that kind of thing won't work for me, Mephistopheles, what are you going to do next?"
"Two days later, Lord Satan will have a ceremony, and if my estimate is correct, the day of that Lord's resurrection will be two days away. ”
"That way, they don't have much chance of winning. Faust laughed, "There is only one Gabriel left in heaven now, and there is only one Renault left in the world who can match you, but the two of them together cannot be Satan's opponent." ”
"So until Satan is fully resurrected, we don't let hell go hay in any way, and that's the most important thing at the moment. ”
"There's no way anything could go wrong with you. Faust said, "There is nothing to worry about now, as soon as Satan is resurrected, the death knell on earth and in heaven will be sounded." ”
"So I have a task for you. Mephistopheles got up and whispered to him, "Do you understand?"
"I see, I see. Faust nodded, "Leave it to me, and if something like what you say happens, I'll fix it cleanly." ”
"Then please. "My hunch shouldn't be wrong, he should be going to act soon." ”
"And I'm going to do it when he acts, and he doesn't expect you to expect him to do it, so you'll be caught off guard by my presence. ”
"It doesn't matter if you shoot or kill. Mephistopheles continued, "I'm the one who hates traitors the most now, and I'll get rid of them as soon as I find them!"
"Got it. Faust also stood up, "Then let's do it for now, arrange a room for me to rest, and I'll keep an eye on his movements." ”
"If you don't say I'll do the same. Mephistopheles looked into Faust's eyes and said, "Come with me, but be sure not to reveal your purpose until then, or he will probably change his plan of action on the spur of the moment." ”
"It's better to let me kill him now. Faust shrugged, "Do as you say, but I just believe in getting a good night's sleep right now." ”
