Chapter 289: Azik doesn't want to accept his fate
Yes, Archon Azik was just a child in the eyes of Bethel, who had existed since the Third Age.
"If you don't mind, I don't know how Azik is doing during this time, his scumbag won't embarrass him because of the tea party......" Lynn couldn't help frowning when he thought of this, he suddenly looked at Bethel and said:
"Bethel, why don't we invite him over in advance, or I'm afraid that scumbag of Salinger will do something bad to my leek."
Although it is not known how disdainful Sallinger is, Lynn never expects much from the character of the scumbag.
So he decided to swing the hoe in advance.
……
While Lynn was already about to swing his hoe, on the other side, Archon of Death, Azik, suddenly felt a little cold.
This made the Death Archon subconsciously frown, and looked up from the half-human-high pile of parchment, looking around, but he didn't see anything that made him feel cold.
In fact, at this moment, there is no second person in this palace belonging to the Archon of Death, except for Azik himself, and even the attendant who is usually responsible for treating Azik is missing at this moment.
The gates of the palace are closed, and they are marked by the Grim Reaper himself.
The reason for this state is simple, Azik is grounded by death.
After returning from the tea party of the gods, because of the restraints, Azik naturally could not inform the god of death of the specific content of the tea party, and could only reveal some general information without violating the restraints, such as who participated in the party, and the theme of the party.
This is a loophole deliberately left by Lynn, he allowed the person of the tea party to disclose this part of the information, the purpose is naturally to facilitate the pull, and without exposing the key information, to make the tea party more widely known.
If you change to a similar father, you naturally won't blame Azik in this case, after all, it belongs to the constraints that even sequence 0 has to abide by, and it's too normal for Azik to be unable to fight against a sequence 2.
But who is Sallinger, the mysterious and famous scumbag father, as a crumb who can turn his child into a resurrection vessel for granted, Sallinger in this case, directly vented his anger at the inability to know the specific information of the tea party on Azk, blamed Azik for not doing things well, and directly grounded Azk.
And the most disdainful thing is that the grounding is the grounding, but Salinger is not ready to let Azik idle at all, so even if it is grounded, Azik still has to deal with various affairs of the Bailang Empire in a steady stream.
That's why Azik would be alone in the palace to produce documents.
"Delusion?" The Archon of Death muttered in confusion, and then his gaze fell to the corner of his desk, where there were a few letters lying quietly, all of which were letters that Lynn had written to Azik during this time.
"It's a pity......" Archon of Death sighed as he thought of something.
He did not blame Libert for holding the tea party because he was punished by death, not because of the strength that Libert showed at the party, but because Azik knew very well that Libert invited him to participate in this party without any malicious intent, but because he wanted to help him, he invited him to participate in this party that he was not qualified to participate in with his strength.
Azik knew very well that being able to participate in a meeting at this level in his circumstances would definitely be able to derive benefits from it that he could not have imagined, not to mention that it was a great wealth to be able to get to know those angel kings and sequence 0 and gain their friendship, not to mention other substantial things.
It's just a pity that Azik may not be able to attend the next party, and it's a pity that after being grounded, he can't go to the appointment again - he originally thought about it, and after a while, he would go to the Tudor Empire to have a look, and even find a chance to experience the life of a mortal as Lynn said.
Now it seems that there is no chance.
The Archon of Death thought slightly, looking at the location of the gate.
This is not the first time he has been grounded, the Grim Reaper has never been a benevolent god, and the Archon of Death, Azik, as his heir, has never received the slightest bit of fatherly love.
So growing up, Azik didn't know how many times he had been punished by death, sometimes because he had made a mistake himself, and sometimes it was simply because he was unhappy with death.
Among the many punishments, the ban is already a very mild punishment.
Before today, Azik had thought that he had long been accustomed to this kind of life, and he once felt that even if he was locked up in this palace for the rest of his life, it would not be a big deal, and anyway, for him, the Bairan Empire was just a bigger cage.
Azk lives in this cage, and he has to tremble and obey the instructions of the god of death in every word and deed, even if he is punished, even if he knows that he is being turned into a container for resurrection, he can only accept it silently, be a good consul of death, handle those affairs big and small for the god of death, and wait for his final come.
But now Azik realized that maybe he was not as resigned to his fate as he imagined, he thought he had accepted all this a long time ago, but at this moment, he felt that the closed door was so suffocating.
It's like his life, which was closed by the same being early, suffocating and despairing.
"That's not what a devout believer should think......" Azik smiled a little self-deprecatingly, and his eyes fell back on the picture of a cat hanging on the wall.
The painting depicts a large ocelot protecting a kitten wearing a silk top hat behind it, which looks warm and full of fairy tale atmosphere.
Azik was a little distracted, and after a long while, he raised his hand to cover his face and whispered:
"You're terrible, Liebert."
Azik knew that he had been shaken a long time ago.
Either when Libert described to him the future that belonged to him, or when he saw the painting, or in that letter.
He was seduced by Liebert's description of the future, began to look forward to the life described by the other party, and began to ...... Don't want to accept the fate of being a container.
He should have accepted his fate!
In this era, in this country, as the heir of the god of death, it is a matter of course to sacrifice everything for the god of death, including self, and no one will question it, and no one dares to question it.
The former Archon of Death wouldn't, but now Azik suddenly wanted to ask the Grim Reaper - why was this the fate I should accept?
So the Archon of Death felt that Libert was really terrible, and that he had revived a terrible being within him, which might be called humanity, or perhaps ego.
He made the Archon of Death want to be Azik.
"Smack-"
At this moment, the originally closed door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and then the Archon of Death heard a lively and familiar voice:
"Good afternoon, Azik!"
Azik looked up in astonishment and saw the familiar boy standing in the doorway, with a big smile on his face.
The sunlight shining in from behind Him was not dazzling, but the soft, warm light just penetrated into the dark and cold palace, making the whole room seem to be bright.
