Chapter 328: Reason
1997, Tokyo, Japan, abandoned factory.
"Really...... It's sad. Is that all you have to do, Goniz? If that's all there is to it, then I'm not too welcome. As I said this, I looked at Mr. Priest, who was half-kneeling on the ground, panting for breath:
"Then, according to the agreement, your eyeballs will be my trophy."
That said, but I didn't reach out and gouge out the eyeball that belonged to me in the first place. How so...... If it's a cute girl (or a boy), this feeling of spicy hands destroying flowers may bring a strange kind of pleasure. However, the opponent was replaced by a middle-aged man who was half a year old, so it wouldn't be interesting.
So I started looking forward to it. If the other party is single, just gouge out the eyeballs yourself and give them to me. That way, everyone can get down the stairs.
But the uncle on the other side didn't seem to understand the meaning of my hard work. He just looked at me, and then smiled meaninglessly: "So, Lucar's heir." What do you desire? Why are you in this place at this time and challenge me? β
"What do you think?" I asked rhetorically. At the same time, I was thinking, "Procrastinating? If you talk about the same party, this guy has a few comrades. But they're busy right now, and I don't know what's going on with their boss, and I don't know where we are now, so I don't have to be afraid. β
"Hmm...... Is it for revenge? Konitz replied with what most people would find correct: "Because before that, I defeated your father and gouged out his eyeballs." So you want to avenge him in this way? β
"A little bit." I replied, "Not the main reason, though." That guy was defeated because his skills were not as good as others, and then he should work hard to cultivate and get it back. What kind of ability do you expect your son to plan for him? I don't have that American time to seek revenge for him or anything. β
"If I remember correctly, Ling Zun...... I think I'm already dead. Konniz said.
"That's not the point." I shook my finger, "Keep guessing, Goniz." You can't stand up anyway, can you? β
The slightly frivolous attitude and tone made the blue-clothed priest rightfully angry. Just, like I just said. He can't stand up now. And even if you stand up, most of them can only lie down again. So he began to continue to speculate:
"So is it to prove yourself? It's competitive, after all, it's a young man. He wants to beat, defeat his father's opponents, and prove that he has surpassed his father. β
"That's a good reason." I flattened my left hand and knocked my left hand with my right hand, making a sudden realization: "In the future, if I see someone who is not pleasing to my eyes, I will use this reason to beat him." After the other party knew why I beat him, most of them could only endure and not speak, right? β
Although I didn't answer directly, my attitude proved that Goniz had guessed wrong again.
"What a little imp who isn't cute at all." The blue-clothed priest couldn't help but say this.
"Because I'm past the age and status of pretending to be cute and gaining favor." I replied, "Now, someone else, preferably a girl, should be trying to please me by pretending to be cute, right?" β
"Perhaps." Goniz chuckled. But he didn't want to talk anymore. It's not that he can't guess new reasons, he just doesn't want to say themβexcept for the two privately charged reasons of "hatred" and "proving himself," and then only the "righteous" reasons remain. And as "human beings", there can naturally only be one kind of "righteousness" for their so-called "heavenly gods". That is, to prevent the resurrection of the so-called "Eight Miscellaneous Snakes".
This is the last thing Gonitz wants to see.
"If it's just three artifacts, with my layout, I naturally have the power to fight. However, if you add this young man's words...... "Thinking of this, Gonnitz couldn't help but be a little pessimistic. If he dies here, the rest of the Bajie Ji who have lost their heads and sacrifices may not be able to survive. I am afraid that it will take hundreds or even thousands of years for the plan to be implemented. By that time, the world didn't know what it would become......
"It's not what you think." Looking at the hesitant appearance of the blue-clothed priest, I couldn't help but laugh: "What you do, I won't stop it." It's definitely not going to work out anyway. β
"You mean ......"
"Resurrect the serpent, and then destroy the human race or something." My tone was as relaxed as ever. And Gonitz, who was half-kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but lower his head after hearing this, in order to hide the fierce light in his eyes.
"What if...... If you risk your life, will you be able to die with him? The blue-clothed priest couldn't help but think to himself.
"If you're going to kill me, I'd better save it." I said with a smile. Then snapped his fingers.
ββ¦β¦ My body?! In an instant, Gonitz found that his body could not move.
"A little, a little bit of a move. Although it sounds like a powerful thing about the Heavenly Gods, the body is still human, isn't it? β
ββ¦β¦ I lost. "At this point, it seems useless to talk. Gonniz decided to close his eyes and wait for death.
ββ¦β¦ Don't guess? "I was bored to see him like that. And when he saw my attitude, Konitz was surprised.
"You're not ......" Goniz found that his body could move again.
"Forget it." Seeing him like this, I completely lost interest in him: "An eyeball. And then I left. You can do whatever you want. Whatever you want. β
After a moment of froze to make sure I wasn't lying, Goniz laughed.
"Ahhhhh......h I see, so it is. I get it, I get it - you want my eyes, just give it to you, it's no big deal. After he finished speaking, he did not hesitate to reach out his hand, pluck out his right eyeball, and throw it at me. I reached out and caught it, then turned around:
"Goodbye, then." He waved his hand with his back to him. I walked towards the door of the warehouse.
"Wait a minute!" Gonniz stopped me.
"Anything else?" I turned my head and asked.
"That move, the one you beat me, what's your name?" Gonitz asked.
"I just came up with it, so I don't have a name yet." I replied truthfully, "But since you asked, I'll make one." After thinking for a moment, I snapped my fingers: "Let's call it the First Empire." β
"First, ......the Empire," Goniz mused, and then said aloud, "I remember you, son of Lucar. β
Lucar, Lucar, Lucar...... Don't you know anything else but that dead old man? It was Young Master Ben who defeated you, but it wasn't him. "I instantly felt bad again.
"So, what is your name...... Heh, I almost forgot, it's rude to fight for so long and not even ask your name. After saying this, Gonitz reluctantly bowed to me. However, because of the wound, the severe pain caused by it made his body spasm.
"Then remember." I said to him, "That old man once gave me a name. But that's in the past after allβYoung Master Ben's current name is Wright. As for the surname, let's leave it for now. Wright? Feng? Bernstein. Remember, Mr. Priest. After saying this, I left nothing else and walked towards the gate.
