95. Die

"Arcana."

Arcana, again this term, is also the last obstacle to the completion of the handbook of life.

This term is like the "angel who guards the last mountain" described in the life completion manual, and he can't avoid it, which makes him hesitate a little.

The problem now is that the prophecy of the end of the world has already begun, and Fisher, who is the key to the end, must try to find them, and then try to contain them one by one in the same way that the soul completes the chaos in the manual.

At this moment, the leafy tree next to the chaos of life was completely still, and Fisher didn't know if it was because he had sealed it in his body, but it seemed at least a little safer than the tree of life chaos, which was still lifelike.

But to seal it you have to read it, to read it you need to get the Arcana, and to get the Arcana you need to repeat Earwind's actions?

He looked at the manual in his hand and fell into thought, and he couldn't make up his mind for a moment.

"Okay, no, why is it so slow to change clothes?"

At this moment, Elliog outside was still waiting for him, and Fisher's consciousness was finally recalled by her opening, so he put it down for the time being, stuffed it into his arms and walked out with the manual of the subhuman mother.

"Alright, let's go down and have a look."

"Huh."

Behind him, Hellaire still looked down at the travelogue, smiling and waving at Fisher.

Elliog yawned, glanced at the quiet Helaire unpleasantly, and closed his mouth again, as if muttering something.

Fisher walked down the stairs with her, Rao didn't know what she was saying with her mythical hearing, or if she hadn't said it in the first place, but Fisher asked,

"What?"

"It's nothing, it's just glad that I'm resting in peace again."

The prophecy of the destruction of the world has already come, but the demon god who is the first pillar behind the competitive gate beside him was unexpectedly calm, which made Fisher ask with a dumb smile,

"The consequences are so serious this time, it seems like you don't care at all?"

"Serious? Well, a little bit indeed. I had heard that the demigods didn't burn the cracks when they fought to the death, but I didn't expect that this time, what seemed like a small fight, would produce such a disaster. I checked the pedestal while you were unconscious, and it was completely gone. Baimon has waited so long to find something that can break the seal of the Mother Goddess, and I am afraid that I will not be able to find it for a while now."

Fisher thought for a moment, then proposed,

"What if the Mother Goddess lifts your seals again?"

"Don't, don't, it's not realistic at all." Elliog shook his head and explained, "The power to lift the seal requires the level of the gods, and now that the cracks are still burning, letting the power of the gods affect reality will only make the destruction come faster Moreover, the seal given to us by the false god is whole, once the seal is lifted, we will all run out." Oh, when the time comes, it will be a pot of cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods that will be stewed in a mess, and nothing can be done except to add to the chaos. ”

"That's it."

"Well, of course, you can see each other at any time after that, but it's more difficult than meeting Baimeng, who killed a thousand knives, and you need a little soul energy. I should be doing you a favor by stabilizing the authority of death here, and Isn't it impossible for Baimon to get out? In this way, neither of us has won."

Elliog glanced at Fisher, who suddenly looked a little lost, and suddenly asked with a smile,

"Why, you want me out so much?"

"Indeed, it would be a pity not to see you."

Elliog's long ears and tail twitched, and there was a "gurgling" magma bubbling sound in his chest, I am afraid that his heart was dark, and even his tail was about to point proudly at the second floor where Hellel was sitting, but on the face, after she chewed on Fisher's words, she only said meaningfully,

"I'll remember that."

Fisher and Elliog continued to walk forward until they came out of Bymon's palace and came outside, but they did not see Emhart and Holland.

After asking Elliog, I found out that it was because Emhart, the coward, was afraid of Helaire, so he hid far away, and was about to leave the door of knowledge.

Fisher was speechless, and slowly followed Elliog to where they were.

Maybe it was to take care of Fisher, who had just recovered beside him, or maybe he wanted to say something to Elliogdo, so neither of them did anything to escape, but just walked like a walk in this gradually quieting demon dynasty.

Until Elliog suddenly remembered something, he wagged his tail behind him maliciously and asked,

"By the way, I helped you like this before, should you repay me?"

Fisher was slightly stunned and said with a smile,

"Okay, let's see if there's a chance to bring you a valuable weapon from outside?"

"Don't."

"Armor?"

"Don't."

"Mattress or pillows? Wine? Delicacies? ”

"Don't."

“.”

Fisher raised his eyebrows and turned his head to look at her, only to find that she raised her head slightly, looked at Fisher with some surprise, and then asked,

"Bye Meng the one who killed a thousand knives, call you dear?"

"Huh?"

"Ah what? It's not that you're a puppy when you bark? ”

Fisher just didn't expect that Heraire's title for himself just now would also be grabbed by her, he thought she didn't care, but he didn't know that she just didn't show it just now, and she was just waiting for him here.

Facing Elliog who was asking next to him, Fisher still replied helplessly,

"Then it's me who should be called."

"And what do you call her?"

"Herel?"

"Hmph."

Elliog clenched her hands, the flames behind her unpleasantly sharpened, her fangs grinding inside her lips, and her eyes unconsciously lifted upward, as if she was thinking.

Then, before she could think for a few dozen seconds, she yawned listlessly, as if the action she had just done had damaged her brain and energy.

So he had to give up, and turned directly to Fisher for answers.

"In your human language, the language of angels is also good, what is a more powerful title than 'beloved'?"

“?”

Fisher was unable to answer Elliog for a moment, and she froze in place, and she thought that there was no more powerful word, and her expression became distressed, and she fell into a second nerve-wracking contemplation.

It wasn't until a second or two later that she glanced at Fisher and muttered with some irritation,

"Well, 'dear' is what she called you, and in return for helping you, you called me 'dear'.

It seemed that she had won in some strange place, and even lifted her spirits, so that she did not even yawn, but laughed happily, but just as she wanted to wonder why Fisher beside her did not call herself, he suddenly lowered his head and grabbed his lovely lips, and demanded the burning heat in it,

"Po"

She blinked, but she didn't resist, but a comfortable "grunt" came from deep in her throat.

It wasn't until a few seconds later that she was let go by Fisher, who couldn't help but laugh as he watched,

"Thank you, dear."

“.”

Elliog didn't speak, just clasped his hand and licked his tiger teeth with his tongue subconsciously, as if it suddenly itched there.

It's just that the next moment, her eyes suddenly dodged a little, and under the backdrop of the tail that swayed and erected behind her, the wheat-colored skin gradually became a layer of imperceptible red, and even its temperature began to rise uncontrollably.

Soon, she continued to walk before, and said somewhat absent-mindedly by the way,

"Uh-huh. Okay, let's go! ”

“.”

It seems that there is still some way to go before Elliog Demon God overcomes his competitive nature.

"Fisher!! Great, you're alright!! I thought you must have been beaten up by the thousand-knife Bymon, and then arrested and locked up in your castle. Whew! ”

Soon, in the area outside the Quest Gate, Fisher saw Holland and Emhart sitting there resting.

Holland changed into clothes, I don't know where they came from, they looked very simple, quite a wild man. And Sir Shu, who was sighing beside him, seemed to feel something from afar, and flew quickly towards this side, saying very "touching" words at the same time.

But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Fisher, whose face was full of black lines, and grabbed him.

Horland, who was not far away, also turned his head to look at Fisher, and the moment he looked at him, Fisher suddenly felt as if something had changed in the person in front of him, but this feeling was indescribable.

It's like a vigorous sprout suddenly growing out of the ruins, and the moment it breaks through the ground, the emerald color suddenly takes over the entire field of vision.

"It's okay if you're okay, that sacrifice was worried that your situation was not good before leaving, if it wasn't for the Elliog Demon God"

"I'm sorry for helping me so much."

Fisher placed Emhart on his shoulder, and Elliog behind him looked around as if bored as they began to talk, and then quickly found a relatively flat boulder, and deftly leaped up and lay down comfortably on it so that the people below could not see clearly.

Fisher also came to Horland's side, and Emhart, who was on his shoulder, was extremely excited to tell him about the changes that had happened since he left.

For example, when they found out that the pedestal did not have the effect of releasing the two demon gods, and that Horan had gone to prevent Solomon from opening the ten gates

When he heard about this a second time, Fisher was puzzled, after all, a man like him who begged for death would have stopped Solomon at that time. Fisher didn't believe that Holland didn't know Solomon's purpose, and that the two undead should be able to read each other's fate when they saw each other.

After listening, Fisher raised his eyes to look at Holland with some doubts, but he happened to see his expression of some confusion and contemplation, and felt Fisher's gaze, he didn't look at Fisher, just looked at the magma, looked at the flowing heat and asked,

"Isn't it surprising why I'm doing this?"

"Ah, after all, according to my understanding, at that time, the crow was about to wake up, and the power of death was becoming more and more active, even if your death was taken, you should be able to die with Solomon at that time."

"Well, that's true."

Holland thought and reached into his arms, only to feel empty, and then remembered that his cigarettes and wine jugs had been lost in the magma.

He regretted it a little but did not withdraw his hand, but kept holding it inside his body, explaining,

"Because I promised Sir Shu to help you, but to tell you the truth, the relationship between you and me is not so close, or rather, the 'relationship' is only false to me. So, I was actually shaken when Solomon invited me to die. Although I rejected him, I gradually had a vague feeling that even if he opened the ten doors and faced the authority of death, he would not die. ”

"Won't die?"

"Ah, maybe it would be possible for the crow to wake up completely, but even if the ten doors are opened, the crow itself still refuses to wake up, and I felt this when we faced him. And our immortality is given by the power of death without will, so even facing it will not help. ”

Holland smiled and shook his head, explaining so for Fisher.

Fisher was dumbfounded.

If the death of the crows in this world can only be lifted by the awakening of the crows, then it is fundamentally impossible for them to die, unless the entire world is destroyed by the prophecy of the destruction of the world, and then the sleeping crows wake up.

It is estimated that Heya will not care about this little "accident" at that time, right?

Is this an unsolvable proposition?

Fisher couldn't help but think so, but Holland in front of him didn't seem to be in line with Fisher's thinking, he laughed instead and asked,

"Fisher, have you ever wondered how the hell Agareth took death away from us?"

“.”

"Doesn't that sound amazing? Even though she was an eighteenth-order demon god, it was still incredible that such a thing could kill any living thing being born in her hands. Even if she is the demon god of the Hunting Gate and has such ability, normally speaking, the conditions for forming a death rune must be very harsh, and it must conform to the logic of death. ”

Holland lowered his head a little, covered his chest with his hands, felt the faint pulsation in it, and his speech speed increased a little,

"The logic of death should be simple, before I was deprived of death, Agareth stole the death I got after triggering something from a ranged spell, causing my death logic to go wrong. And you should have discovered that I was stolen not just from death, but from all that came after. I couldn't feel anything new in my heart, and my body was stuck in the moment before I was deprived of death.

But, Fisher, the power of death is not limited to death, that is, theoretically speaking, there is no such thing as a divine authority that makes death that belongs to that person disappear when death is stolen. So, I have a guess. What Agareth stole was not my death, but what triggered our death, so that we were forever stuck in the moment before we died."

Fisher frowned, feeling the strangeness in it, and couldn't help but glance back at Elliog, who was sleeping in the back, and said to Holland,

"Is this your guess or. If you're not sure, we can wake up Agareth and ask her how she stole your death. ”

"Don't think about it, she was polluted by your chaos, and now she is still recuperating in her body, I guess you won't see her for hundreds of years."

On the boulder behind him, Elliog's figure did not appear, but a voice came, dispelling Fisher's thoughts.

But Holland laughed, shook his head, and said to Fisher,

"No, Fisher, I just wanted to say that I shouldn't remember anything because Agareth stole my death-triggering factor. But just as I had stopped Solomon from opening the Ten Doors, it was as if I had suddenly found the trigger for my death."

Holland's pale face smiled, and he also turned his head to look at Fisher by the way, and said in a low voice,

"At that time, I was forced by Solomon to see the true body of the crow, and I suddenly remembered some things that I cherished before, and at that moment, I actually wanted to live"

"Wait, what do you mean?"

"Ah, I think the trigger for my death might have been the thought of 'I want to live', right?"
