Chapter 57: The Connection Between the Past and the Future (19)
Vlajde, an independent individual separated from the nine-headed demon dragon Diamos, is also a powerful god in the second generation of Dan, who is in charge of war and strife. Although the www.biquge.info of the Pen Fun Pavilion was born from a demon dragon, it was divided into the chaos and flame system under the jurisdiction of the Pillar of Fire, and most of its incarnations were fire dragons or great demons in the shape of flames, and it was the first time since the War of the Gods that the direct descendants used it as the carrier.
Vera exuded an astonishing power, the heavy smell of sulfur and blood filled the air, and the uninhabited ruins could not carry the majestic power of the gods, and they quickly melted away at a speed visible to the naked eye like sunburned butter, and the bricks, trees, and wreckage all decomposed into fine dust without exception.
[Diahoms must have been very angry, what it wanted to do for a long time was completed by a mortal. Ill-intentioned laughter can make people shudder.
I thought about it for a long time but couldn't finish it...... Is it the law of nature that drives out the dawn?
Link could only speculate like this, he didn't think that he had done anything other than this that the dragon couldn't do. Listen to what Flajde means...... Diahoms is so jealous of Dawn is not only a matter of position?
[Hehehe...... If it weren't for Dawn, the Mother of Darkness wouldn't have been exiled to this day. 】
The premonition came true, and Link felt a headache, and he really didn't want to get involved in the grievances between the gods.
[Obtaining the quadruple incarnation can be regarded as stepping into the ranks of quasi-gods, do you think you can stay out of it?] Without reading minds, Flajde can also rely on Link's research and expressions to figure out what he is thinking at the moment.
"With such a fanfare, you don't just want to say that, right?" Glancing at the ruins around him that had been destroyed by the power of the gods, Link felt an indescribable emotion spread through his heart. There is both the loss of an unrecoverable past and the uncertainty of the future.
[I heard from Malik that you have a contract with him for life. Don't you know that once something happens, without the blessing of the pillar, you are very likely to be counterattacked, absorbed by Malik as a believer, and your soul will be controlled forever. There was a distance between them, but Flajd's voice echoed in Link's ears over and over again like a demon's whisper.
Link was certainly not without hesitation about the new contract with Malik, but as a mortal, even though he had the power of a pillar, he could not resist the forced conclusion from the gods, which was the best result under the circumstances of the time. As for what happens after death, the only thing that can be relied on is the identity of the otherworldly, and the souls that do not belong to this world will naturally not be controlled. Although his ideas are a bit grandiose and naïve, Link is still a little confident in the fact that the law cannot restrain himself. Plus......
"I don't have faith, how is he going to capture my soul? relying on the shallow power of the contract alone?" It's been a year since he came to Edgar, and Link can't be said to have a complete understanding of this world, but after coming into contact with many high-level and gods, he still has some opinions of his own. The more powerful the being, the more restricted by the world and the laws, as long as he does not believe in Malik, without the maintenance of faith, even if he is a god, he cannot be forced to be a believer, let alone control the soul.
Flajd, who was housed in the body of the Son of God, raised his eyebrows, and was quite surprised by Link's answer, in his cognition, this was a complete layman in terms of divine arts, but he didn't want to, and actually grabbed the most critical part at once. It's no wonder that Malik, who is always wavering, actually takes a stand against the norm, which is indeed a bit outstanding, but ...... It was precisely because of the existence of this kid that the twins refused to surrender.
Vlajde was obsessed with this.
The power of Diamos is too strong, even if it is a differentiated himself, he still can't give birth to a pure descendant with other creatures, either a brainless monster with no power, or an energy body without a body, a direct line with both flesh and soul, the only pair between heaven and earth. If it weren't for the frost and cold......
The thought of the other lifeweaver made Vlajd feel a little unhappy.
It is diametrically opposed to the one in front of him in terms of position, camp and experience. Both he and Malik were worried, and these two, whether gods or depraved, would become even more problematic beings than Hicks. The two primordials who could see the future and change time were banished, if something went wrong......
Undisguised hostility emanates from the gods, but it is enough to burn the soul.
Although he didn't know why Vlajd suddenly had a convulsion, Link could only silently open the elemental wall and endure the stronger and stronger force suppression. Unexpectedly, Frazed, who was exuding an astonishing coercion, suddenly stumbled, his body shook, and then straightened up, blood already flowing from the corners of his mouth.
With a cold snort, Vlajde was coerced and dragged his intentions out.
"The purpose of this meeting is only Yi'er, I want to return the contract they signed with you, after all, they have nothing to do with you anymore. ”
They, by their fingers, are twins. The contract is a contract with Link to make a demon, even if the body of the oath has been changed, but Link is using life as the cause and effect to block the establishment, and the twins are thinking about this nominal 'father' who is not related by flesh and blood. Their contract with Link is still there, but the two fools who don't know the truth and are simply too much are easily fooled by Diamos, if it weren't for their own intervention, I'm afraid they would have handed over their souls now.
The thought of this made Vlajde angry. Obviously, he is their real father, and there is no direct line between generations, and that kid coaxes them into obedience with just one mouth, which is really infuriating......
Such a request was much more than Link expected, he thought that Vlajd's meeting alone should mention some alliance matters, or to propose a contract similar to Malik's, but he never expected that it would be such a personal thing for the twins' demon contract, and what surprised him even more was that the contract with the twins was still there? After reshaping the body, he didn't feel the connection with them, and thought that the contract had been severed with the change of ownership of the previous body.
What should I do, is it a trick to not admit that there is still a contract...... Or is it a reservation in exchange for some kind of condition?
Link was a little undecided.
Gods are different from mortals, and lying doesn't mean anything to them. Even if he really didn't feel the deposit certificate of the contract, if Vlajd used it in turn, wouldn't it be a waste of the opportunity to save the twins. Born on the surface of the earth and raised in human society, how could they adapt to the environment of the abyss.
How can we say that we can both displease Vlajde and make him acceptable?
For the first time, Link envied Frost's IQ. If that guy were that, this should be easy.
【Prescribe your conditions.】 Vlajde didn't think that the other party would reject him, especially in the absence of dawn, for the sake of the alliance and for himself, the otherworldly man would definitely agree. He had even figured out the lines of sarcasm.
"The minds and strength of those two children are not equal, and if it weren't for the support of the bloodline, there would probably be no bones left that would have been gnawed soon in a place like the abyss. Instead of investing a lot of time and energy in training the puppets who resist from the heart, it is better to simply let them go. ”
[Huh?] Vlajde was puzzled for a moment, and then he reacted. The apostle summoned by the pillar from the other world did put forward the condition, but instead of renunciating the contract, he let himself give up the twins.
[Hahahaha-] The continuous laughter was followed by the shaking of the earth and the mountains, and even the anger of the god of war spread in the air: [You actually let me give up in turn!]
Compared to the suppression of oneself when he descended, the unrestrained ascent of divine power put the invisible barrier used to restrict the gods and high-level species in the first generation in danger, and the twins' bodies also took on a strange posture.
[Shut up, you two, there's no room for you to talk here!]
After scolding the owner of the body, the humanoid controlled by Vlajde began to deform and stretch, taking on the form of a dragon that Link had ever seen. Compared to the last time, this time his body was not only larger, but the accompanying flames were also more hot, if he hadn't had the power of the pillar of fire, he was afraid that he would be evaporated by the demon flames in the moment of transformation.
Squeak crunch -
From time to time, strange noises erupted in the air, and runes of different colors lit up one after another, flying on their own, connecting into a circle visible to the naked eye, cutting the area where Frajd was located into overlapping spaces.
Is this the barrier set by the first generation......
Link had just breathed a sigh of relief, and his hanging heart was lifted again.
It's not good, Vlajd is using the body of twins, and even if there is anything, it can't hurt the deity.
"If they are willing to submit to you, why should they ask me for a contract? At the beginning, I made a pact with my life as cause and effect, can you? Flajd, who keeps saying that he is the father, dare to bind yourself to the direct descendants of your mouth, and to prosper and lose both? How can you, without that kind of awareness, ask them to offer their loyalty without reservation?"
Boom -
The demon dragon with a reddish glow in the black opened its mouth and spat out flames of the same color, and the children of nature would never be injured by the element, even if it was the flame of the demon dragon, it was still a fire element. This is just a trick, and the real offensive is a thick and long tail swept past with lightning speed.
With a roar, the ground collapsed instantly, and the dragon spread its wide wings and soared into the air, where a huge wind falcon of no small size flickered with lightning in its blue feathers. This scene is like the reappearance of the night when the contract was signed.
The fight between the two alarmed the undead wandering in the wilderness, and they gathered from all directions, unable to fly, and could only look up at the two powerful lifeforms above, and those who were driven by instinct to approach were all turned to ashes by fire and lightning. And vampire bats and gargoyles with the power to fly have some intelligence, and they hide far away, not daring to approach the area that has long been dominated by the elements.
Above the clouds, Hohenheim, who had been monitoring the Befast Lord, had exploded, and the mages gathered or sat alone to observe the battle between the two powerhouses at the apex of the elements through magic items.
