Chapter Thirty-Nine: Invasion of the Otherworld
ββ¦β¦ I remember it all, about the events of that night, and the memory of that world. β
Walking on the grassland under the starry sky, the pink-haired girl followed closely behind the figure of the god in front of her. She lowered her head and stroked the long sword in her hand with her fingertips, not knowing what she was thinking.
"That's a great congratulations, Daisy-san." Mu Xiu didn't look back in front of him, as if he was quite calm, and said this in a calm tone.
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
Seeing that the other party seemed to be completely unmoved, Gui Daisy raised her head to look at the dark clouds that appeared in the night sky at some point, covering the bright stars, and sighed lowly.
In fact, she was just overthinking.
Because it was actually about this topic, Mu Xiu didn't know how to respond to the right choice, after all, he seemed to have done some bad behavior at the beginning.
It's just that Gui Daisy has also done that kind of bad behavior, and she started it first.
Specifically, it is actually the preparation of the two to confess one after the other, but the two are also one after the other...... That's it.
In a sense, they're not really ready yet. Anyway, it's really embarrassing, if it was like before, Gui Daisy temporarily forgot that memory, there would be no problem.
But now that she remembered it again, Mu Xiu felt that she suddenly had a feeling that she didn't know how to face her, just like now-
He wasn't really that calm and calm, he just had an awkward strange feeling, and he couldn't ignore it anyway, let alone ignore the past.
Especially at this moment, feeling that the girl was following behind him, Mu Xiu always felt that the other party's gaze seemed to be like a substance, and it became extremely piercing, making his back cold and his head numb, which was extremely uncomfortable.
And this uncomfortable feeling is completely out of the control of the will, when Gui Daisy said the sentence just now, he didn't have the courage to turn back at all, and could only express a calm and calm posture as much as possible.
Fortunately, his control has reached an astonishing level of subtlety, which is better than he imagined, so he did not have a stiff body and uneven breathing.
- It's just that this is already the limit, and it's impossible for him to be able to talk about that memory again as if nothing happened.
After all, what's the difference between that and a public execution?
Fortunately, the box garden in front is not far away, and it will soon be able to get out of such an embarrassing situation. With this thought, Mu Xiu subconsciously quickened his pace.
The whole world seemed to be silent, except for the slight sound of the night wind blowing through the grasslands, because of the chaos caused by the strange sense of time, although hours had passed in the subjective time.
However, on an objective level, this is actually just after nightfall, and less than half an hour has passed after about the evening.
Moreover, the objective time flow rate of this place is also different from that of the outside world, and an hour here is equivalent to about five days in the outside world, so the two of them have more than enough time to slowly move on to the next thing.
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
There was silence between the two, but there was not much stiffness, but there was a hint of weirdness?
The girl looked at the destination not far ahead, and exhaled a long breath, as if she had made up her mind. Fingertips gently stroked the blade of the long sword, and the cold and strong metallic texture made Gui Daisy feel a reassuring taste.
What comes from the sword is a feeling that it is connected to one's own blood.
When she held this sword, she really felt the power of the sword, it was a transcendent power that was completely subdued, completely obedient, and used for herself like an arm.
In the same way, with the help of the power of this sword, she was able to barely control the inhuman power in her body, which was said to belong to the power of angels beyond the human realmβa power that could "destroy the world".
Although she is not able to completely control the power of this angel who can destroy all mankind without moving a finger without her own will and belief.
However, her inability to control this power is only her problem, not the essence of this power.
And - angels? β¦β¦ Unknowingly, you have become a real angel?
Although there were many inexplicable technical terms in the words explained by Mu Xiu, it was unreasonable, and Gui Daisy understood what he meant.
If it was her before, then she would never understand.
It's as if the distinction between humans and angels is a difference in comprehensiveness. It's not just a conceptual noun, but even "hardware" is completely and completely different from the past.
What the human brain can't understand, but the angel's thinking ability can be perfectly compatible, which is probably what it means.
But it doesn't matter what it is, the most important thing is that the distance between himself and Mu Xiu has been shortened. Now the distance between the gods and the angels is incomparably closer than before.
This is undoubtedly an opportunity, and Gui Daisy also feels that she must seize this opportunity, at least to be at the same level of world as Mu Xiu.
At this time, Mu Xiu, who was walking in front, finally stopped, and turned around-
"So...... Are you really ready? Daisy-san? β
Outside the box garden, Mu Xiu turned around and asked the pink-haired girl for a long time, his expression was very calm, as if he was just about to go out and turn left to the supermarket next to him to buy groceries.
Maybe for him, it's really not much of a difference.
But Gui Daisy didn't have a way to do it to such an extent, even if she kept mentally suggesting to herself, but when she saw the changing star map inside the box garden, the scene of the macroscopic universe running through time.
She still felt that her body had become completely stiff before she knew it.
Therefore, as a matter of course, there was no answer to Mu Xiu's question.
Deep-rooted ideas of the past cannot be overturned by new perceptions that have been established in a short period of time. Just like she has always had a fear of heights, even if she can fly and conquer the sky with her own ability, she still refuses to go to high places.
The current situation is actually the same, although Gui Daisy does not have a setting such as space phobia, but her instinct still tells her that in the deep space of the universe, human beings cannot survive.
"So, it will take a while to correct the past perceptions and concepts, or should you really stay here?"
Mu Xiu smiled helplessly, and then slowly revisited the previous suggestion.
"No, don't think you can leave me." The girl glared at him dissatisfiedly, and reiterated her insistence very seriously.
"But if you really follow along, you may see the other side of me, and you may not be sure......" Mu Xiu said with a smile, "Maybe there are some things that you don't know, right?" β
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
There was a slight silence, and her eyes changed slightly, but in the end, Gui Daisy shook her head and took a deep breath.
"There's no point in pretending you don't know, and it's not like you've never been seen doing it in that world." She said in a deep voice, "I don't like it until now, but if I have to make a choice......
ββ¦β¦ Words? Mu Xiu's smile became more subtle.
ββ¦β¦β
The pink-haired girl looked up, let out a long exhale, and then didn't continue, just hummed symbolically. But it was clear who she had chosen to be on.
"So be it, please hold my hand, Daisy-san." Mu Xiu coughed, and it seemed that he was in a very happy mood.
Just glanced at him faintly, and the elder generously stretched out his palm, without twisting at all.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
In an instant, the boxy box garden was transformed into a real world that was infinitely grand and transcendent to all else.
The cosmic starry sky inside spun rapidly, whistling in the shadow of light, and the total star map that could have been viewed overlook was transformed into a complete material system in the real world in an instant.
- This is an unknown time in another dimension.
I don't know how much time has passed, as if time flies, and it seems to stand still.
Because Gui Daisy is the first time to try to consciously cross the world in this way, she is wandering between half dreaming and half waking up at the moment.
However, Mu Xiu frowned slightly, although he could no longer be affected by such a feeling, but this did not prevent him from recognizing the familiarity of this feeling-
It can be said that it is very similar to the teleportation process dominated by the large light sphere.
Could it be said that the essence of the system of the "Lord God" is actually equivalent to some unknowable force above the world, and its rules are not based on the plane, and every world is a "box" to it?
ββ¦β¦ Where is it? β
At this time, the pink-haired girl came to her senses and asked subconsciously, and then her words stopped abruptly.
It was pitch black, and they were in the empty depths of the universe at the moment, surrounded by a sparse starry sky, cold and dead, unchanged for eternity. Except for the sporadic points of light, there is no other light source to be seen at all!
Can't tell the difference between up and down.
I don't know where the end is.
She felt as if she and the others were in a huge hollow, the loneliest, darkest, and coldest place in the universe.
"This is already the world inside the box, but the position where we came in seems to be skewed, and we don't know how far away we are from the planet called Ante Isula."
Mu Xiu looked in a certain direction, waved his hand and played a spell and replied casually.
A string of sparks burst silently, bursting out of the vacuum with countless sparks, quickly following a certain direction like a lit lead, and in a flash it was already out of sight.
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
"Well, I knew that...... So what should we do now? β
The elder lowered her head and then gritted her teeth vigorously, she was visibly flustered at first, but quickly forced herself to compose.
The guy next to him seems to be completely indifferent to this kind of thing, which means that this is not a big deal at all, and maybe he often encounters a situation that is much more serious than this.
If you really want to keep up with the other person's footsteps, then you must try to adapt to this "common sense" from now on.
Not to mention anything else, the current state alone is that she has never thought that people can be safe and sound in the cold space in the depths of the universe without relying on any protective devices, and even the voice can be transmitted in a certain range of vacuum against common sense.
Not just the person next to her, but even herself was able to do this kind of thing unconsciously, which gave her a deeper understanding of her own nature.
"Now...... Naturally, I found the existence of that planet first, and to be honest, it wasn't particularly difficult, maybe Daisy-san, you could try it. β
Mu Xiu nodded, and said as a matter of course.
