95. Acquittal

Yegri's palm was upward, reaching out to me, without any hostility, as if she was sharing her joy with me.

She said, "Look, look, is this true? ”

I am her enemy.

The enemy who destroyed all her hopes and dreams.

A deranged and degraded enemy.

And her euphoria made her ignore it, and she wanted me to understand that she had become human.

This is beyond hatred, beyond loss, beyond crime, beyond the viciousness and injustice of her and me, for her, this is the most important thing in the world, what Sodom, what the Empire of the Era, what the Supreme Empress, what the Demon God incarnation, what infinite magic, none of these matters anymore.

Being human is everything to her.

I asked, "What is the truth behind this?" ”

Yegli's tears rained down on the ground and gathered into a stream, and she said, "I don't know." ”

"What you've done so far.... All to be human? ”

Yegri: "Maybe, I don't know, but now I know, yes, I'm human." ”

It's ironic, it doesn't seem like a difficult goal, why did we get to this point?

"It's a lot of things that we've done that make this final change look easy, but to get to this final step, the things that come ahead are essential," she said. ”

Those twists and turns, those detours, those failures, those pains, those killings, those sins, are all essential.

I said, "You used to be at the pinnacle of supernatural beings, but now you're just a mortal. ”

If I move my fingers, she'll die.

Ye Geli smiled: "I don't regret it, ah, it's so wonderful to be a mortal." She covered her body with her hands, bathed in the sun, and her appearance was so pure, like Aphrodi in the bath.

These? Just to be mortal? You have set foot in the temple of the gods and dwelt in a glorious heaven, but I think you were not as happy then as you are now. Because you were once grumpy and ugly, but now you are calm and beautiful.

I don't understand, but I seem to understand that sometimes, the things you take for granted, or even don't care about, are exactly what others dream of. For example, in the last days, if you can eat a bowl of hot rice steadily, you will make those robbers who are heavily armed and precarious in the wilderness go crazy.

Green Veil said, "What are you going to do with her?" ”

The Devourer said, "Let me eat her soul, it will be very delicious." ”

Anatoly: "You don't know if it's delicious or not. ”

Sea Monster: "I will twist her soul and make her suffer forever." ”

Plague Doctor: "Does it mean anything to you to let her suffer?" ”

The sea monster said, "No, nothing makes any sense. ”

Sister Plague: "Then let her enter the web of madness and make her a friend of us." ”

Green Veil: "It doesn't matter what we do with her, it's important that we do what Mokkawi wants us to do." ”

Anatoly: "I don't think that's a good thing. ”

The parliamentarians were deeply agreeable, and it was rare for them to agree.

At this moment, Bartix, Megin, Meade, Ferenne, and Rocky, the leaders of the Sodom Resistance, appeared nearby, and they were terrified, terrified like a deer that had been bitten on the spine by a tiger and was dying.

When madness swept through the city, they escaped just in time, as well as the nuclear explosion.

Green Veil said, "They're afraid of you. ”

I don't need to say it, I can see it.

Anatoly: "It was taken for granted, they thought that Longinus had destroyed the glorious city, sealed Helsin, and put Yegri's life on the line. ”

Isn't that true?

"Actually, you can't do it alone," Anatoly said. ”

Yes, I don't have to bear all these sins alone.

Bartix seemed to have finally mustered enough courage to shout from a distance of twenty meters, "Kill her!" ”

He was referring to Yegri.

Mei Jin hurriedly said: "It's hard to make this step, what are you still hesitating about?" "He was afraid that Ye Geli still had room to resist, for fear that I would capsize in the gutter.

Mead shook Ferenen's hand and said, "The Emperor won't blame you for Sodom's matter, the Epoch Empire will make peace with the Black Coffin and the Sword and Shield Society, as long as you kill Yegli!" ”

"You've seen the evil things she's done, too, by dismembering the clones and using them to make her suicide bombs!" She sacrificed a clone to her demon god! ”

In the past, when I was mixing wasteland, I could call myself a moral scavenger. But at that time, I had already begun to kill, and I would not do the things of robbers, but if I saw a traveler who was certain to die, I would put an end to his suffering, and take away what was left of his worth.

Later, in the Black Coffin, I remember an old food factory, and the Rangers and I went in and snatched some of the aboriginal cans, leaving the old and weak women and children to fend for themselves, oh yes, I didn't mention that we killed the men who guarded the food factory, we thought they were robbers, but who knows?

And then there's the amusement park, which happened just a short time ago, and I remember it the most. How so? I'm not washing the floor for myself, but their community is on the verge of collapse, and I'm helping them out of their misery.

Then, there was Sodom.

I still have excuses, such as Yegree who did it first, such as that I was in legitimate self-defense, such as the councillors of the crazy network who forced me to do this, such as the fact that everything was done by Mokawi using the Broken Winged Crane trick. But actually, I knew that I knew a long time ago that this might happen.

In order to stop Yegri, Sodom must perish, and the only way to perish is to slaughter.

Whether it is leading troops, force, disease, famine, or soul eater, the result is the same.

I'm not more innocent than Yegri, I'm not more innocent than Yegri.

I am the Lord of Shadows, and I have driven everyone mad into a state of no return.

The Sun King doesn't seem so bad compared to me, does he?

There are even more fantastic.

When I return to the Black Coffin, I will be an even greater hero in the minds of people. I can even imagine what the Sword and Shield Society's scepter would have given me a thank you for saving the lives of the Sword and Shield Society.

My prestige is already very high, and there is no way to seal it, and there is no reward for it, but if there are history books in the future, I am afraid that I will occupy the most space and become a demigod like Hercules.

Because of what?

Because I killed enough people.

What I do is actually the same as the Sun King, it is flesh and blood, and I am spiritual.

It's just that what I do is more subtle, my deeds are more hidden, and in the eyes of my people, I am righteous.

I fought a righteous battle of annihilation, nothing more.

I said all this, but I didn't mean anything else.

I just don't want to kill Yegri.

Unless I can find an excuse to prove that I am innocent, that's a pity.

I unleashed a powerful shadow that cut through the rock with its sharp edges like a blade through a piece of tofu, and the shadow swallowed Yegari into it, giving the rebels a look of relief and horror.

After about a minute, the shadow spat out the remnants of Yegri, with only the head relatively intact.

I said, "A congratulatory gift to the Emperor of the Anpoch Dynasty." ”

They didn't realize that the head was not Yegri, but the daughter of one of them who had been devoured by the shadows, and the rebels walked to me with relief and gratitude.

"I will tell my father," said Bartix, "and he will be pleased." ”

Mekin: "IBA would like to thank you for your outstanding contribution to peace in the last days. ”

"You've done a good thing for this already bad era," said the stone. ”

Mead smiled: "This demon woman has a pretty good face, brother, what do you say?" ”

Ferenen looked at the head silently and didn't say much.

I put on a cold character, this time there was no rollover, they were in awe, and left backwards, disappearing behind the ruins of the city.

I found a long-abandoned hut on a hill, and in the shed, I released Yegari and clothed her with shadows.

She hesitated, "What is this?" ”

I said, "It's a reward for you to call me Daddy." ”

Ye Geli said angrily: "Who called you Dad? I thought about it at the time! And your clothes are too ugly. ”

I said, "Your remaining strength does not exceed one hundred and fifty mi, and it is not worth mentioning before me." ”

Ye Geli didn't understand, she just thought that my clothes prevented her from touching her newborn human skin, and her hands touched herself, which made a strict defender like me frown.

I wouldn't have given her clothes if I had known.

I can't do anything, but at least I can watch it for a while, and with her energy, maybe after a while, my fingers will dishonestly enter some places that should not be entered in public....

Yeghri said, "Get out of here." ”

I said angrily, "Why? ”

She said, "Your look is disgusting! Perverts! ”

I was shocked: "You old witch are still qualified to talk about me?" ”

Ye Geli: "I'm a new student, and now I'm a minor, do you think I'm still a human being?" ”

I wanted to educate her about the complexity of human nature and the joy of being human, but the author didn't intend to do that.

In an instant, she and I felt as if we were on the surface of a star, tens of millions of degrees of heat boiling the flames under our feet, and the light swirling, but in fact we didn't feel the heat at all, it was some strange hell, and I knew at once whose hand it was.

In this world, only Lucifer and God can do this.

I met Lucifer, who was accompanied by another maiden, a Kindred, Constancia, an ancient ancestor possessed by the Angel of Death, Azlar, who had been rescued by Lucifer after the battle with Belial.

I understood what he was going to do.

I said, "Why do you keep taking these girls?" ”

Lucifer said, "You should ask why my dukes are always looking for maiden possessions." ”

"Why didn't you take Longley Helsing?"

"I'll take him as soon as you can free him from Dagon's control."

I said, "Isn't he sealed by Baal?" ”

"He's out of trouble, and I don't want to confront Dagon head-on," Lucifer said. ”

Ah, the old Morning Star messenger, still the same familiar taste, smart, powerful, but cowardly.
