Ariel?!

The stunned black-haired wizard went blank in consciousness when he saw the face lying on top of him.

It took him a full five seconds to figure out what had just happened.

In other words, the person who just told himself the "truth" with a lie, and told himself the history of the wizards of the Dragon Kingdom from a completely different perspective... It's not Asrael, it's Ariel?

Of course, because of the "Legend of Symbiosis", Ariel is indeed qualified to call herself "Asriel", and of course Loren knows exactly what is going on.

Although they are both "Asriel", a blonde boy will never admit Ariel's existence, and the most important reason why the two guys have been able to live together "in peace" so far is that Ariel voluntarily relinquished control and put her position under Asriel.

Of course, more importantly, Asrael couldn't beat this much thinner and petite girl than him, and the combat power of a blonde boy was so weak that he could be killed even by a sneak attack.

Pursing the corners of his mouth, the black-haired wizard felt the "position" that had just been attacked by a sneak attack, and there seemed to be traces of artillery fire and craters on it; Make a breakthrough.

However, this sneak attack has also exposed the serious problem that our position is tight outside and loose inside, and the command headquarters is helpless in the face of a surprise attack; if the enemy really attacks on a large scale and attacks with a desperate momentum, we cannot rule out the possibility of disarming and surrendering, abandoning armor and defecting, and surrendering the position......

Shaking his head vigorously, Loren desperately threw the cranky thoughts of that moment out of his mind to sober up his sanity.

But why did she "disguise" herself as Asrael and use his tone to tell these truths to herself in a "lie" way?

For example, by doing the opposite, you can gain your trust.

Because I would never believe Asriel's words, not even a punctuation mark, not a syllable - so it is really ...... to use this kind of inducing "lie" to let yourself find the key content

Well-intentioned.

The dark-haired wizard who sighed in his heart did not have the slightest emotion of gratitude.

Just as Asriel has ulterior motives every time he reveals the "truth", Loren has no doubt that Ariel will want to help him from the bottom of her heart—and I'm afraid that she will only do so if she wants to kill her when she is at Ebolden.

Lowering her scarlet gaze, the corners of the pale girl's mouth hung with an imperceptible arc, and the tip of her dexterous tongue gently licked the bloodless corners of her lips.

Her movements are slow, as if she is tasting refreshing tea, repeatedly savoring the richness that seeps into her mouth.

"Dear Loren, how do you feel?"

Leaning on the black-haired wizard's chest, Ariel softly tentatively said, "The night is still long, it's cold, we have red wine, we have cold floors, and we ...... each other."

"Hey, some imposter lady!"

"Can't even be quiet, silly Asriel. ”

The screams of gnashing teeth and the tone of disapproval played at the same time,

As Ariel gracefully got up from Loren, the blonde boy with his hands behind his back and a "hideous" smile on the corner of his mouth appeared in front of the two, and his scarlet pupils were almost like a real murderous aura.

"Jealous, heartbroken?" With a gaze like a barking puppy, Ariel looked at Asriel with an angry expression on her face:

"It seems that the contact with the 'Black Cross' Serol has made you even more timid and sluggish than you used to, stupid Asrael. ”

The blonde boy's pale cheeks flashed with a strange and annoyed expression: "At least the timid and sluggish Asrael would never deceive his friend in such a shameless way—we all know that dear Loren trusts me more." ”

"If you're saying that trust is to keep forever in doubt, I'm not against that. ”

Ariel let out a silver bell sneer:

"But considering the poor pride of a little fool who is always talking and not telling the truth, let's assume that this is the case. ”

"Miss Imposter who pretends to be someone else, she dares to say that others are rhetorical words, what a surprise!"

"If you want to try it, I'm not against it. ”

"Excuse me, I just said that I would not deceive Loren's feelings in such a shameless way. Asrael snorted lightly, his expression rather disdainful:

"Besides, Asriel doesn't need to be deceived, my dear Loren and I were already ...... when we rescued him from the avalanche in the glacial wasteland."

"Ahem, cough, cough, ......!!!!"

Seeing that these two had the momentum to continue to develop, Loren, who was shocked, quickly coughed a few times, interrupting the topic of comparing himself to a "victim".

"Alas......"

A regretful sigh came from the polite boy and the elegant and calm girl at the same time, and the conflict between the needle and the mai mang just now instantly dissipated invisibly.

Really, what's there to regret?

Suppressing the urge to light the two of them with a fire, the black-haired wizard who had regained his composure looked at the boy and girl standing in front of him:

"So, can anyone explain to me - what just happened?"

The atmosphere was about ten seconds deadlocked.

With a calm smile, Ariel turned to look at Asrael, "You, or me?"

"Obviously, at this time, the culprit needs to be confessed to the crime!" Asrael said with an angry expression, very impatient:

"As one of the victims, I am innocent and there is nothing to explain at all!"

"Well, I hope the stupid Asrael doesn't regret it. ”

Ariel sighed again, her tone full of pity once again ignoring some angry, shivering teenager.

"Dear Loren, first of all, I beg your forgiveness for Ariel's excesses of being affectionate and courteous—but this is not the cause of everything. ”

Loren was as expressionless as a stone sculpture, ignoring the other man's words while focusing on the next sentence:

"The real reason is that some idiot who has always deliberately concealed his purpose, and is slow to tell Loren what is really important, that Ariel has to use this slightly radical way. ”

The girl who sighed again shook her head:

"Because if dear Loren continues to be so ignorant, and has no idea of the threat he really faces... It's really too late. ”

The black-haired wizard was shocked.

It's true... Too late?

"It's just an exaggeration!"

Asriel snorted lightly and shrugged disapprovingly, "Dear Miss Impostor, you are just deliberately exaggerating the situation in front of you in order to make your next argument more convincing. ”

"Exaggeration?" Ariel shook her head slightly:

"Stupid Asrael, you haven't seen the situation in front of you clearly - isn't the 'Black Cross' appearing enough to warn you?"

"It is precisely because Seliol has appeared in person that it proves that he can no longer stand still and has to intervene in person. ”

The blonde young man laughed, undisguised the disdain in his voice, "And now he has been driven back to the void by me and my dear Loren—so he can't even intervene." ”

"What is so terrible about an enemy who can only be beaten unilaterally and can barely fight back... Dear Loren will follow the trajectory he has set for himself, becoming the savior of the new world or whatever he wishes, with nothing to worry about. ”

In response to Asriel's "self-righteousness", he was answered by Ariel's playfulness, as if mocking the phrase "Together, they rushed back to the void".

"The brazenness of some idiot, let's not talk about it for now. The girl raised the corners of her mouth, and her scarlet eyes were gray: "The enemy who was beaten unilaterally and couldn't fight back - where did you get the courage to say this?"

"Have you not seen his power—hundreds of years of time to prepare him for the perfect game of chess and plenty of back-ups, to keep Serol out of the material world, and at best to let everything unfold according to his original script, and the wheels of the chariot that have rolled up cannot be easily contained? ”

"Besides, how do you know that he has no means to return to the world?"

The blonde boy sneered softly again.

"Of course I knew he would come back at all costs, because Serol is such an arrogant and self-righteous guy. Asrael laughed slyly:

"He can't tolerate the feeling that he's not the center of the stage when the curtain opens, and he loves to enjoy dramatic conflict and dialogue – so in his absence, we're dealing with an enemy who won't fight back until he returns. ”

"By then, how many pieces will he have left to play head-to-head with dear Loren, I guess there's nothing he can do but fight alone?"

"Even when he was alone, he was still a threat, and a threat that surpassed everything. There was a hint of despair in Ariel's pupils, and she whispered:

"What happened to the guys who tried to resist him?"

"What happened to the guys who tried to surrender to him?"

"Isn't it because it's almost over, why didn't the stupid Asriel think that the expulsion was also in Seriel's plan?"

Asrael, whose expression changed color slightly, still retorted unweakly: "Because I'm not you, I'm Asrael - the real Asrael, so I won't be unconditionally afraid of a madman." ”

Ariel didn't say anything more.

Under the candlelight, it was quiet for a minute.

It's like the calm before the storm.

"Have you talked enough?" said the dark-haired wizard slowly, something always twinkling in his calm gaze:

"If you've had enough, let's ask you two to answer me a few questions. ”

As the words fell, Ariel and Asriel turned around at the same time, acting very well-behaved.

The black-haired wizard's face was expressionless, but his mood was as shocking as a stormy wave.

What the two "Asriel" just argued, and today's accident... It's so important.

In the beginning, Loren always believed that Serol, the Holy Cross and the evil gods belonged to a three-legged relationship - the Holy Cross had the upper hand, and the evil gods were about to be destroyed, while Serol was constantly reserving his strength, and while destroying his "companions", he did not forget to use all means to overthrow the rule of the Holy Cross.

Now it seems that I have really been kept in the dark and spinning.

Ignorant of danger until the end, the "truth" that you realize is nothing but lies, speculation and imagination...... It was a chill that flowed through the vertebrae and pierced into the mind.

The situation is far more dangerous and complicated than he thought, and Asriel and the other evil gods seem to have been fighting against Serol for a long time, but they have always been at a disadvantage.

The diametrically opposed attitudes of the two guys prove that they have long known everything, and it is even possible that everything is as Ariel said, and all their actions are in Asrael's plan.

"First of all, the first question, Asriel, don't open your mouth yet... Ariel, why do you say it's too late?"

Taking a deep breath and forcing his heart to calm down, Loren reached out to stop the blonde boy who was still trying to defend himself and asked the first question.

The girl's expression was a little desolate, and her bright blood-like eyes carried a sadness that bordered on despair: "Because Ariel, who loves Loren deeply, doesn't want to see Loren's final end." ”

"Sandwiched between the void and the material world, it belongs neither to the left nor to the right......"

"Sandwiched between evil gods and humans, belonging to neither the former nor the latter......"

"Like a spiral of contradictions, the story that is staged and repeated in the past, stepping into the never-ending night at the last moment of the dawn, swallowed up by hatred, anger, sorrow, and sorrow......"

The beating candlelight became quiet again. Asrael, who was silent, nervously watched every change in the black-haired wizard's expression.

"Dear Loren, Ariel has no doubt that you will soon be able to open the second valve, or even the third... Eventually, you will become a being that no one else in this world can match, and your innate identity as a 'stranger' will give you the supreme privilege of this world, as if you were a god on earth. ”

And then ...... In front of Seriel, he was torn to pieces without a defense. ”

Loren, who was stunned, didn't know how to react at all.

A spiral of contradictions, a story that plays out and repeats itself in the past... Wait a minute......

"yes, you guessed it right. Ariel smiled sadly: "Dear Loren, you, me, we... Not the first to think of all this, not even the first to do it. ”

Roland Turin, Brunhilde...... They're the first. ”

"He was also the first loser, torn to shreds without a defense. ”
