Chapter 293: Cheshire Cat
"Cheshire cat?" Tianxi looked at the huge black cat licking his front paws in front of him with a surprised expression, unable to connect with the sheep-headed demon from the abyss, after all, the harmless cat and the corrupt and evil demon are two extremes at all.
"Of course, it's one of my favorite characters. The demon named Cheshire Cat pulled out a very exaggerated smile, and the corners of his white lips seemed to grin high to the root of his ears.
"Alice in Wonderland, you are really a literary demon. β
"Oh, I didn't expect Mr. Birmingham to read this book too. "The Cheshire Cat seems to be very excited about Birmingham being able to tell the origin of his name.
"I was fortunate enough to read it as a child, and it was very good as a children's book. β
"Yes, Mr. Birmingham thinks it's just a children's book, it's a shame. I didn't know how to show pity on a huge cat's face, but such feelings did appear on the face of the demon in front of me.
"Everybody's understanding is different, just like when I was a child, I could only think of it as a good fantasy book, but Hughgos you can use it as a guideline for your life. Birmingham watched silently at the black cat whose smile faded, the demon wanted to be as mysterious and charming as the Cheshire cat, but now it was only in its form.
"Do you think I'm emulating the black cat in that book?" Cheshire Cat, no, it should have been Shogues's calm mouth, but both Birmingham and Thianhi could feel the anger that lay in the calm.
"No, I think you're just being funny, you're not a Cheshire Cat, you're just an evil and corrupted demon, that's all. β
The sword, with the landing of Birmingham's words, slashed out in the darkness, and the claws of the black cat followed, seemingly unequal battles, but it was a comparable ending, even if Birmingham lost the protection of the Lord of the Soul, but the long sword in his hand was a symbol of a pillar of demon gods, even if Birmingham did not have a mortal body, but his soul had been imprinted with the imprint of the five servants.
"Dragon Fury!" the Red Dragon King Finir instantly added, and the frost shadow shrouded in the final sword blade was replaced by a red flame in a blink of an eye, the flames scorched the darkness, and his footsteps approached the demon in front of him little by little.
However, the huge cat shadow was like a mirror, and the moment the flames approached, the huge body shattered, and then turned into a galloping black mist that bypassed Birmingham's sword blade, and reunited behind Birmingham to become Shoggers' favorite Cheshire cat.
Flickering and erratic, this is the description of the Cheshire Cat in the book, but at the moment Birmingham does not have much leisure to have a long conversation with this demon and talk about this childhood book in Birmingham's mouth.
"Aurora!" the Wind Blaster held his body, and the flames of the blade flickered, and in an instant he was enveloped in the restless wind.
The body of the sword-wielder is like the wind, but the body of the demon is like a black mist, galloping and fluttering constantly colliding in the darkness, and the sword light and claws burst out from time to time with flickering fire.
"Is this what the mortal servants can do, is this the strength of the glorious, it's really ridiculous. "In between the collisions, Shogues still does not forget his duty, and verbal attacks are what he is best at as a sheep-headed man.
"Canghong!" Scigux responded to Birmingham's galloping figure again, the sword shadow of the wind turned into a terrifying sword light that tore through the darkness, and the prestige of Ara's sword saint Richard reappeared again on his descendants.
The sky is full of shadows, and the sword light is galloping, as dazzling as a meteor falling in the night.
The real disconnect, the real mortal servant, this is the most intuitive feeling of Tianxi who watched the battle, the holy knight, the dragon, the sword saint, the ancestor, almost one after another great people who will go down in history are displayed one by one on the sword edge of Birmingham, the most precious thing that Nasr, the lord of the long river, left to himself as a servant may be how to use the power of the sevenfold seal, but the fly in the ointment is that at this moment, only five servants can be used on Birmingham instead of all.
This time, the erratic Xiugus finally realized the power of a mortal servant, after all, five completely different styles were not something it could cope with now, especially Xiugus, who had released the essence of his soul, had already felt the voice of death whispering in his ear.
There is no time, the exhaustion of the soul has made it impossible for Xiugus to continue to dodge like this, at this time this demon who gave up his immortality suddenly regretted inexplicably, if he is still a demon at this time, or an immortal existence, then he can now enjoy a hearty duel with this mortal servant, but there is no time, in order to experience the appearance of real life, Xiugus abandoned the fascinating immortal body, in exchange for a short chance to realize his dream.
"What a pity, Mr. Birmingham. The black cat, which had been drifting for a long time, finally appeared, and its body, which was originally the size of a hut, had become more than a person's height at this time, and its black hair also seemed faintly scattered.
"Your time is up. Birmingham stopped his sword, his blue gemstone eyes revealing a hint of emotion.
"Yes, when the time comes, I can finally live as a creature instead of being resurrected in the scorching magma forever"
"What a strange product demons are. This is a conclusion that Birmingham has come to after many encounters with demons.
"Is it strange, not terrifying, Mr. Birmingham is worthy of the title of the Honorable. β
"The Glory?"
"Of course, this is the mark of Mr. Birmingham as a mortal servant, and it is also the unanimous consensus of our Abyssal Demons, and it is also something that I envy. "Shogues's body is shrinking little by little, and in a few words it has become an ordinary black cat, except for the singularity that it can speak.
"You envy me, which is a bit surprising to me. β
"I am a demon, Mr. Birmingham, a demon who always looks up and sees only darkness, a demon that dwells in the sulfur and scorching magma, a tiresome life, but I have no determination to change, and you are different, Mr. Birmingham, you were just a down-and-out nobleman who got by in Shenzhen, a teenager driven by others, but now you have found a goal to support you to go on, which is enough to make me envious. β
"Haven't you taken this step of change as well? It seems that in the face of an adversary whose death is imminent, Birmingham has finally removed the indifference to Shoggers in his words.
"Change, is this change, as you said I was just an imitator of the Cheshire cat in that book, imitating its mystery, imitating its language, and even in the end, I didn't really change myself, but became a servant of the navy. β
"What is your relationship with Queen Claire?" Birmingham was desperate to know, to know what the so-called queen was for.
"As you know, the tree diagram exists to repair the Celestial Tree, but Gafenri's wish is to become an ordinary mortal, not an immortal misty man, the Empress has done exactly what her predecessors have done, and I am just a servant who longs for a new life and is powerless to change it. β
"Is eternal life really a torture for you?" The ending of countless immortal seeds left Birmingham with incomprehensible questions, whether it was the story of Gafenri, the maker of the abyss, or the demon Shugus, who was now dying, it seemed that they were all trying to break this glorious that was incomparably beautiful in the eyes of mortals.
Eternal life is really a beautiful topic, but it is a painful shackle for the owner of eternal life, the dragon chose to use a long slumber to kill the increasingly boring life, the lord of the long river uses the responsibility of the goddess as his own motivation to move forward, and the demons of the abyss will invade the mortal world, stealing the light has become their only purpose to get tired of the abyss, but all this will be broken after all, the evil god Gafenri is the first, and the demon Huggus is not the last, at least the emperor of Clay in the imperial capital of Yasar, and now the leader of the dark blue clan is the one who stepped on this journey, but her plan surpasses the evil god Gafenri of the abyss, surpassing the demon Shugus.
"So, mortal, what is eternal life to you?"
Hugues's last words dissipated in Birmingham's ears, this question had been asked to him by the succubus before, no, maybe it should be Hermes, the goddess of the abyss, by now, but he didn't expect this question to come out of the mouth of the sheep-headed man again.
The darkness was pierced by the sunlight with the demise of the demon, and unconsciously ushered in the dawn, Birmingham, who was standing with his sword, opened his palm, looking at the golden sunlight projected in the palm of his hand, it was obviously a warm color, but he felt only inexplicable coldness, as a soul, as an alchemy puppet, Birmingham has begun to gradually disappear The touch that mortals should have, is the title of Glory really suitable for him, is it suitable for the current Richard Birmingham?
After the imperial coup d'Γ©tat, the demon invasion, and the ultramarine transformation of Birmingham once again felt confused, whether he was still the ignorant Birmingham who had completed the agreement with the goddess of the abyss, and whether he was still a down-and-out aristocrat with naΓ―ve ideals.
"Superfluous thoughts, my brother. For the first time in a long time, Thienxi used the name that had been buried.
"Sister, am I still me?" Birmingham looked confusedly at Tian Xi, his sister who was floating beside him.
"You, forever Birmingham, will always be my brother. "For the first time, the sword spirit Tianxi, who has always shown herself undisciplined, showed tenderness that did not belong to her.
"You're the Cheshire Cat, my brother. The murmuring whisper became a thunderclap in Birmingham's ears, and the Cheshire Cat finally mustered up the courage to make a change, defeating the timidity he had hidden with a smile.
It turns out that he is not Alice from the beginning, the person who has the courage from the beginning is not himself, he is a Cheshire cat, a nobleman who continues to grow and finally defeat the timid, this is the glory in the mouth of Xiugues, the moment when a timid ordinary person gases courage, it is when the glory shines.
The darkness was finally dispelled by the sun, and the figure of the little magician Ellie appeared not far from him, and everything was still the same as before, except that there was no sheep-headed man who abandoned the name of the devil, a big black cat who was addicted to the story.
"Host, host. Little Ellie's voice was filled with excitement that could not be concealed, and the darkness created by Shogues made the little magician visibly frightened.
"Yo, my cousin, it looks like the matter has been settled. Count Luvia smiled a little teasingly.
"No, it's just the beginning, after all, I still have a deal to do. Birmingham clenched the sword in his hand, and a warm smile once again appeared on the puppet's face, this is his big adventure, it is his growth journey, and now it is time to live up to his promises, the responsibility of being a teenager.
