Chapter 172: The First Soul to Sacrifice
The deep aura of Sakuraman's real name instantly enveloped the audience, and it almost raged from Roland's ears, making him slightly stunned.
Being Eve's real name can be said to be the most worry-free one, and his attitude towards this aspect makes him very relieved, but in the face of this kind of coercion released with all his might, Roland still realizes that something is wrong.
Although he hadn't yet understood where the two rituals had touched his true name's anger, he had more or less realized that something was wrong with the development of the matter so far.
So, he pulled out Sakuramitsu's real name in his arms and used his body to block the two girls, so that the oppressive atmosphere was temporarily reduced a lot.
"Hmph."
The two ceremonies of eating HΓ€agen-Dazs still had a cold expression, and he was just about to get up and take out the dagger, but he fell back on the sofa because of Roland's movements.
There was a faint dissatisfaction in her clear eyes, but the subtle joy in the depths of her eyes could still reveal some joy for her behavior towards Roland.
Roland looked at Sakuraman's real name seriously.
The pink-haired girl's face was full of anger, her breathing was a little short, one hand grabbed the hem of her skirt, twisting it into a ball, and the other hand was holding it in mid-air, looking like she was ready to summon the holy sword, and the whole person looked like her hard-working wife accidentally caught the scene of the theft of her husband and the vixen when she came home.
Thinking about it carefully, Roland felt that he probably understood this situation, it was the root cause, although it was not completely certain, but it was undeniable that the other party himself was also a part of this heavenly ritual.
This must be the so-called Shura field, right?
According to the solution of Brother Cheng in Roland's impression, at this time, as long as he is stabbed and not dead, he can avoid the direction of the good ship and lead to a happy ending.
But things obviously won't be so simple, although Sakuramitsu's real name is in line with the characteristics of the sick Jiao from any point of view, but her tendency is obviously the other extreme, and the love she has that only thinks about Roland is blind, and in her heart, even if she is really at fault, it will only exist in a third party.
It's all the fault of that woman who took the initiative to come up shamelessly!
From Sakuraman's real name's crimson eyes, it is easy to read such emotions.
Sakuraman's real name doesn't care about the two rituals themselves, just because of the appearance of equal existence, so as to confirm her own status to herself.
In this case, it's better to explain it with actions than to stop it, right?
Roland shook Sakuraman's real name's hand, and at this distance, Miss Real Name, who was still angry, suddenly let out a cute exclamation.
"Ahββ!h
The girl screamed slightly, her pretty face flushed, and her rapid breathing quickly calmed down under a slight twitch.
"Lord Roland!"
Sakuraman's lips pursed slightly, his expression softened, and his dreamy eyes stared at Roland's face, and his beautiful face was rendered peach.
This performance made the corners of Roland's mouth curl up with pleasure, and Miss Sakuramitsu turned her head a little awkwardly when she saw this scene.
Then, a precise straight ball struck her heartstrings.
"I love my real name."
Roland said with a smile, forcibly looking at her, although the action was a bit excessive, but because of this, Sakuramitsu couldn't avoid the blood-colored eyes that seemed to be filled with mist, but emitted a bright light.
"So, you don't have to have any concerns."
In the power of the apostles, the interpretation of the wall of the heart is indeed quite convenient, especially for Roland, even if Adam and Eve are separated in the form of individuals, the hearts and minds between the two are still very harmonious, and there is no unnecessary barrier.
Just pass on the most direct feelings in your heart.
- Even though she is angry, the way she frowns slightly and pouts is also very cute.
"It's so cunning, I know that I can't resist this the most."
Sakuraman's real name muttered.
Roland is a man of rhetoric, but compared to the conventional meaning, it can be called a talent to be able to say such sincere words from the heart in the wall of the heart that cannot hide the original intention, in this situation of the Shura field.
However, the usefulness of this talent is also very good.
"Well, as compensation, I won't even give you a chance to rest tonight, master."
Looking at Sakuraman's real name who looked at himself proudly and made a voice of demand, Roland also rubbed the other party's soft hair a little helplessly.
"What a gluttonous child."
"After all, it's the master, you're at fault first, throwing your cute partner in the snow, and going home alone with other girls, no matter how you look at it, it's too much, right?"
Sakuraman's real name showed a sly smile and said with a little coquettishness.
"Hmm...... Ahem. β
From the corner of the sofa behind Roland, there was a light cough from Asakami Fujino, interrupting the heating atmosphere, and Roland, who was already a little ready to move.
The girl looked at Roland and Sakuramita with resentful eyes.
Although in terms of her attitude towards Roland, she is very similar to her real name, she is the kind of woman who will be well-behaved and bearable, and she is not greedy at all, but she still retains a little bit of her human part, and she can't just ignore her surroundings like Sakuramitsu's real name and talk about those things anytime and anywhere.
And the two ceremonies also put down the empty ice cream in their hands at some point, and took out a short knife from nowhere, playing with it casually in their hands, their clear pupils reflected the cold light emitted by the blade, and swept around Roland from time to time, looking angry.
"Alright...... Let's talk about the rest of the night, how about the Araya Zonglian? I didn't hear you report the results to me in the first place. β
"That guy ......"
Hearing Roland's words, Sakuraman's real name also showed a somewhat distressed look.
"It's a monster...... It was as if he had been completely assimilated into the nature of his own soul, and had become something that was neither a life nor a soul, but a concept. β
"Obviously, he cut off his hands and crushed his internal organs, but under this injury, he was still able to move freely, and he did not shed a lot of blood, that is, his own clothes were wet, according to common sense, this kind of injury should have been bleeding a long time ago."
Listening to Sakuramitsu's real name's complaints, Roland was not surprised, although the technology that opened the origin, although it was the same level as the prototype of Aosaki Orange's body at the technical level, was two different things in terms of danger.
Origin is the "directionality of things that occur from the beginning of the cause" and is the basis for determining what one's existence is, so no matter whether or not it is reincarnated and what kind of existence it is born, it will unconsciously deviate in this direction according to the direction at the time of occurrence.
For example, the origin of Emiya Shirou is the sword, which has left a deep trace in his growth and even in his power system.
The Awakened Originist will also be swallowed up by the Origin, and while gaining great power, the personality of the Hundred Years Degree will also be covered by the directionality that arises from the Beginning.
Araya Zonglian is such a special being, holding the concept of 'stillness', his personality is not completely covered, and in the passage of time, he himself has become the theoretical embodiment of the phenomenon of stillness.
"Even the spread of the virus crystals is almost imperceptible, if it weren't for the actual infection, I almost thought that guy was a corpse, plus that enchantment that seems to be inexhaustible, if it is not directly broken with specialized power, it can only be used to erase his entire person."
In the end, the real name came to such a conclusion.
"It's scary to be human."
In terms of results, you who made those torture-like actions in such a relaxed tone are probably a little more terrifying in the eyes of Huangye Zonglian.
Roland sighed and turned his head to look at the two ceremonies.
When the kimono girl noticed his gaze, she stopped playing with the knife and made a virtual slash in the air to show her determination.
"That guy, only I can kill it."
As for the culprit who created everything, no matter what it became, the two rituals could not let go.
"I know, I'll let you kill it with your own hands, ah, by the way, I like Shikiwa Fujino too...... And everyone. β
Roland said disappreciatively, he had never cared about the attribution of the death of the Wild Wild Lotus itself, as the root formula said, when he got the full picture of the ritual of heaven and stepped into Guanbuzi City, the ritual had already begun.
From the past, from the future, those invisible gravitational forces will naturally pull everything he needs.
But unlike Fujino Asakami, whose face turned red after being confessed and shrunk into the sofa and laughed stupidly, the two ceremonies reacted much more to this shameless speech.
"Unbelievable!"
Her face was flushed and shy, but that didn't stop her from immediately throwing a garbage look at Roland.
"Don't just confess to other women and continue to confess to me as if nothing happened! A sucker! β
After spending some time coaxing the form and eliminating an invisible Shura field, he moved his fingers, lowered his eyebrows slightly, and muttered, "It turns out that this is the bond. β
After the episode just now, he is indeed in a very good mood now, and that bright and strong emotion has hit Roland's good ball zone.
Since absorbing the power of the apostle, Roland has been able to perceive the emotional fluctuations of the people around him and respond differently according to different emotions.
To this extent, Roland also understands why many villains appreciate the decency that hinders them, because the emotions of that unique person are so vivid and beautiful that people unconsciously want to touch them.
When I get along with them, I feel the idea of my heart merging little by little and blooming into a more intense color, which is a very pleasant thing for Roland.
This kind of chaotic malice, and the chain of bonds, will little by little convert the shackles of fate that bind oneself or others into help.
Yan Feng Qili is right, he really doesn't need to do anything, because in the process of encountering, rewriting the plot, manipulating the protagonist, and even conquering the world, conniving at all evil deeds, these behaviors born from Roland's existence will deepen his connection and resistance to fate step by step.
Roland was not averse to evil, he was disgusted by the shackles that had been instituted, and he could only exist as malice and not do anything else.
It's like in the original world, Roland didn't usually go out much, but when he was really locked up and couldn't go out, his life didn't change, but he still felt wrong.
Whether it's becoming a hero, removing the influence of the Covenant spirits, or choosing to complete with Lilith and Eve, these actions are themselves a manifestation of his wishes.
The twisted and chaotic malice is born not only of disaster, but also of salvation, and from it is born the key to heaven.
After realizing this, Roland gradually became clear.
The first stage of the ritual has come to an end, and in the ritual that opens the second stage, the sacrifice of the first soul is also a necessary condition, and he represents an important step for Roland to write his own existence into the Moon World itself.
It not only represents the beginning, but also symbolizes reincarnation.
Therefore, the selection of candidates is naturally very crucial, and it is impossible to find some criminals to replace them like Father Pucci in the original book.
But for the first soul candidate, the root formula does not explain more.
Roland fell into deep thought.
At her level, it is impossible to ignore this, so does this mean that the first soul does not need to be looked for by me at all, and will be sent to the door by itself?
ββ
In the decaying office area of Guanbuzi City, the buildings are politely standing side by side on the side of the road at the same height.
The side facing the street is full of glass windows, which now only reflect the moonlight. The buildings standing side by side on the street are like a shadow-painted world where strange people wander.
The tallest shadow in the deepest part is a twenty-storey ladder-like building, although this was once a high-end apartment.
But with the passage of time, the name of the building has also decayed along with its owner, and although for some reason, the new owner of the apartment is still sporadically recruiting tenants, but it cannot change its decline.
Tonight, however, a tall man appeared on the roof of the building.
"Hey, Araya, I don't have time to play with you in this city, unlike you, who are still with you, my time is precious."
The silence was broken by a young man in a red coat.
With dark blonde hair and blue eyes, his face is like a carved one, with an elegant temperament, and in terms of age, he is probably only about twenty years old, and he looks incompatible with the old-fashioned and desolate Ye Zonglian.
But I'm afraid no one would have thought that the two of them were once old friends who studied together.
"I've also provided you with the technology you need in the enchantment, so it's time for you to make good on your promise, right?"
The red magician urged with some urgency, he didn't have the leisure to enjoy the decaying scenery below, if it weren't for the reason that Ayaya Zonglian gave him that he couldn't refuse, he would never have set foot in this kind of small city in the Far East in his life.
"Cornelius Aruba, no need to be anxious, the plan has not been affected."
Araya Zonglian responded to her old friend's question in a dry voice, "Although there is indeed an unexpected situation, it is still under control. β
"Not affected?"
The face of the man named Aruba was distorted.
"You haven't even completed the fusion of your body and the enchantment, and you've lost most of your chess pieces, so how can I continue to trust you, for your plan, those chess pieces that can withstand your skills are indispensable!"
Aruba is completely unable to be as calm as Araya Soren, and although he only plays the role of a helper, if Araya Soren does not complete his plan, he will not be able to achieve his goal.
And in the entire plan of the Araya Zonglian, in addition to the stronghold itself as the core, those chess pieces that have awakened the origin are also indispensable.
Despite possessing such terrifying technology, not everyone has the qualifications to awaken the origin.
Missing one would cause the plan to be delayed, and he didn't have that much time to waste here.
"As I said, I wasn't affected."
Athena Zonglian glanced at Aruba and said slowly in an anxious voice.
"The candidate for the replacement pawn has been found, a substitute from the Templar Church."
"Templar Church, Vicarator?"
These two sensitive words calmed down the eager Aruba, who frowned and subconsciously lowered the brim of his hat.
As long as he is a magician, no matter which force he is in, it is impossible to ignore the existence of the Templar Church, and Aruba has also completed some tasks as the executor of the Magic Association during his menstruation, and he knows very well how difficult those agents are, competition and fighting are often scenes, and such an existence that is incompatible with magicians will actually join the plan of the Ayaya Zonglian?
As if seeing Aruba's question, Aruya Zonglian explained in a low voice.
"He has been a full-fledged priest for a while, and he has had the experience of exchanging with the Magic Association and practicing in the Demon Dao family before, so he can understand my plans and wishes."
Are the conditions so suitable?
After a long silence, the red-clothed magician looked at Araya Zonglian with suspicious eyes.
"Where did you find that?"
Hearing this kind of question, there was also a hint of emotion in Huang Ye Zonglian's deep eyes.
"It sounds strange, but it's not what I'm looking for.
- He sent it to the door on his own initiative. β
