Comprehensive: Beginning with the Killer Queen

Othinus was stunned.

Although the whole person looked extremely unstable, as if he had suffered a huge mental blow.

But when the enemy who had just wiped out all her life suddenly said such ridiculous words sincerely, "I will save you," the dazed girl clenched her fists unconsciously.

"Why are you bothering me? Haven't you already won?"

"Or is it that killing a demon so easily is not enough for you, and you want to torture me slowly by using the whole world's judgment, like scraping my bones with a file? Or imprison my remains and take them as trophies..."

The wisdom of the demon god made Othinus not believe Roland's words at all, so he subconsciously analyzed Roland's thoughts and intentions.

But halfway through her words, she lowered her head in disappointment when she thought of her situation.

"Forget it. I've already prepared myself for failure. It's up to you."

Her eyes were vague and her pupils were unfocused, and she looked like she had given up on herself.

But Roland knew that although the demon in front of him looked harmless, in fact, if he let down his guard, he would only suffer a great loss.

The spiritual realm of the demons is indeed not worthy of the quality of omnipotence, but it is also relative.

This is the same origin of the rumor that the Son of Krypton has low magic resistance.

The reason why Superman seems to have low magic resistance is essentially because he is too strong, which results in the enemies he faces being often T0-level enemies such as the eternal evil gods and magicians, which shows his shortcomings in this area.

Even a powerful magician in the conventional sense could not break his defense.

The same was true for Othinus. After Roland, who was also a demon god, crushed her ideals, actions and hopes in all aspects with even greater power, her mental state fell into confusion and became the extremely unstable state it is now.

But pure psychological tactics can only be used as a clarion call for a charge, and cannot be used as a hymn of triumph.

He believed that this kind of blow would be enough to rip out the demon's claws, and that he would be the only one to suffer.

Othinus probably knew this, which is why she thought of those ways of disposal. After all, even if she was just a remnant, she still had the power to take the world to its death before the power of the demon completely collapsed.

It was impossible for Roland to focus his attention on her all the time.

But if Othinus were killed, it would be a pity to lose her value.

Unlike those demons who are tired of playing and have no hope for salvation in the world, Othinus still holds a glimmer of hope in this critical period. Just like a character card pool that is open for a limited time and will never be reproduced, for the greedy evil beast, it must consider whether this is the only chance.

"Winning the battle doesn't necessarily have anything to do with wanting to save you."

Therefore, Roland automatically ignored the second half of Othinus' words, his eyes flickering slightly.

"Besides, your goal is not in any irreconcilable conflict with mine, and you are also a lovely and beautiful girl. Especially for the latter, emotionally and rationally, I don't want to kill you so wastefully."

"…Why do you say that? My goal is to find the 'original world', which is fundamentally different from the present world you want."

"Because you are not an absolute god, you are just a mortal who has possessed the power of a god and climbed to the top. This evaluation may be a bit rude, but I always feel more familiar with people who have desires and enemies instead of people who only have rules and missions in their heads."

——The only thing I cannot associate with is an 'absolute' enemy, but you are not absolute at all.

Roland said this with a matter-of-fact expression.

"Even if Othinus is a god of magic that has already been completed and cannot be improved, this alone does not make him an absolute god."

Unlike Christianity, a monotheistic religion where all miracles began with one person, the characteristics of polytheism are quite different.

They may also have a God-King who can stand at the top, but it is by no means perfect.

In addition to rationality, the gods also possess rich humanity.

Positivity, love, sense of justice.

Even negative emotions such as fear and jealousy will be expressed openly.

Each different priesthood is a gear that meshes with each other and has a certain degree of irreplaceability.

This is true in Norse mythology and Greek mythology. Even the main gods cannot violate this theorem.

Even Zeus, a god who is particularly famous for his arrogant character, suffered many setbacks in the story.

This is the flexible system of polytheism. They make up for each other's weaknesses, thus establishing a spiritual system that will not collapse due to a single mistake.

Only by combining the opinions of multiple gods and standing on the standpoint of the group can we take the right path.

Therefore, even if the main god abandons the heaven and other gods to become a transcendent, she is not a perfect god, but an existence in between, who will be confused and fail.

In that case——

"Othinus, you have actually been suppressing your feelings, trying to forcibly erase them, right?"

Roland raised his eyebrows slightly and lifted the girl's cheek.

He quietly looked down at Othinus who was kneeling on the ground and looked into his eyes.

“It’s like knowing the harm of staying up late and the benefits of studying, but still deceiving your children, because compared to the emptiness of the future, the happiness of the present is the fuel for their progress.”

"The same is true for the wish to return to the original world. For mortals, it is a beautiful thing that can soothe the soul, but for humans who have obtained the power of the devil, it is impossible to return to the past. You should be very clear about this."

"Even if the almighty power created by phase has flaws, it is still an almost perfect engineering. For humans, it is impossible to even distinguish the difference. But you are a demon god who can perceive every detail of the world. You are too perfect, so it is impossible for you to accept this tiny difference."

Roland smiled and patted Othinus's cold face, as if trying to sober her up.

"But just like you can't accept the world you created, even if you have a clear script, even if you get a scraper like Imagine Breaker and scrape off the paint that was added later, the final painting will not be the original one."

"When you get too caught up in your omnipotence and go too far, there's no turning back."

"What you want is never the original world, but someone who can understand the pain of being alone and alienated, and understand this loneliness. Because you can't find such a person in the current world, you place your hopes on the residents of the original world."

"..."

It was totally hit.

For a moment, Othinus was speechless.

In the dark maze world, the surrounding light comes from the burning fairy power in her body. It is the absolute light when the demon dies, and no natural light can compete with it.

Therefore, the light that illuminated Roland's face undoubtedly came from here, but for some reason, the girl felt that the bright light came from Roland himself.

Roland shattered all her hopes with the cruel truth.

Indeed, the original world is just a cover, and Odin's nickname is enough to prove this.

Although distorted, the deeds of this God-King are undoubtedly true experiences of Othinus.

Wherever she is, she is the tyrant who spreads death and fear, and even in history books that endlessly glorify the victors, she is the cold god of war.

Even in her original world, she was a great god who could never be understood and had no way out.

Just like a traveler from afar who is lost in a foreign land where he cannot speak the language would use the soil of his hometown to comfort himself, what they miss is never their hometown, but the environment that their hometown represents and the group of people who can tolerate them.

But this cruel truth itself warmed her heart a little.

Because in order to completely put an end to a madman's delusions, you must first stand in her perspective, and then use the truth after analysis to penetrate her defenses.

How funny.

In the time since she was so desperate that she gave up her strength and even now, after wasting countless years, she has never seen the shadow of anyone who understands her.

But at the moment before her death, her obsession was fulfilled.

The person who understands you best is actually your enemy.

In the impending desolate death, Othinus pursed her lips and stared at the young man in this dark world, who was standing in front of the door of her dream that was pushed open and looking at her with a smile.

Roland tilted his head.

"So, what do you think, Euthinus?"

The one-eyed demon looked at Roland coldly with her jade-like pupils.

Roland could clearly feel the emotions overflowing from the dying body, but the girl did not answer.

She didn't even move, but just held the Lord's Spear gloomily, hugged her knees and continued to sit on the ground.

Roland sighed helplessly.

"Not only was I saved, but my wish was also granted. How about a more vivid expression?"

But Othinus still did not answer, and even turned his head away.

"I see, you think it's fine to keep the status quo..."

Roland nodded clearly.

Because of the huge power gap, Othinus’s current thoughts could not be hidden from him.

Although the girl is an arrogant demon, a cold monster, and a demon king who has reached the top through struggle and killing, there is still a part of her that is still a little girl who is afraid of loneliness. Because she is too chaotic, she can't find any reference standards at all, and can only keep cycling in a strange world that is increasingly deviating from her memory and a lonely dark world.

Her immortal body and eternal power left her without even the right to refuse, and there was no one to share her wish with.

He could only swallow this immense sadness and pain alone, to the point that he would rather give up the power of the devil in exchange for an ideal full of flaws, so that he could numb himself with action.

But at the same time, after truly finding someone who understands her, she will take the initiative to stop extending her hand because of this coincidental obstacle.

Othinus and Roland were enemies who fought each other with their lives and wishes at stake.

Even three minutes ago, the girl's determination to kill him had not wavered at all.

After all, she was about to die, but she suddenly said that the other person was the one who understood her desire. Would it be considered a conspiracy or a means to prolong her life?
Moreover, Roland probably still remembers clearly how she ruthlessly abandoned and exploited Gremlin.

Saying such things at this moment really seems a bit deliberate and suspicious.

Othinus was only one step away from achieving his wish perfectly, and he was very unwilling to give up.

But this unwillingness cannot change the status quo.

The other party is not a human being whose will can be shaken by force. If that were the case, he would not be able to understand himself.

She couldn't change the desperate fact at all.

Therefore, rather than taking a step forward and being denied by the thing she desired, she would rather stay where she is. At least this way she can face death calmly with the fact that she has gained someone who understands her.

Strong yet fragile, ruthless yet sincere.

Such a contradictory personality is the essence of Othinus becoming a demon god.

and so--

"Then I'll ask again."

Roland lifted the girl's fair chin, admiring her red face and flustered expression, and became more and more pleased.

"Do you believe in gravity?"

“Although the encounters between people are caused by gravity and the process may be full of twists and turns, I think the meaning and everything that is born from it are beautiful things.”

"If you don't have the courage to trust yourself, how about leaving your fate to gravity?"

Othinus's expression finally changed.

The moment she knew that Roland was someone who understood her, she imprinted every scene of their time together in her memory, and naturally would not forget the conversation when they first met.

The one-eyed demon opened his mouth and wanted to say something.

But before the words came out of her throat, the sound of her hand squeezing the spear rang out.

That is an action that shows that the other party is too presumptuous.

"——But whether you like it or not, you have no right to refuse."

Without waiting for Othinus to answer, Roland began his next step with righteous words.

Under Othinus' astonished gaze, he pressed the girl's rosy lips and roughly spread them open.

Then he reached his hand in and fiddled with it, revealing his white teeth and tender tongue.

"Uh...what do you want to do?"

Caught off guard, Othinus had no time to react.

In other words, reacting will not help.

After Roland became someone who understood her, she would never have the desire to attack him again. Moreover, facing the numbness spreading from her spine to her whole body, even struggling was difficult for her.

Although he is the god of magic, Othinus has no personal experience in the Norse mythology where status is determined by battles and struggles.

Therefore, as Roland's actions became more and more excessive, the girl's young face couldn't help but show a bit of shame and anger. She bit Roland's finger provocatively and glared at him viciously.

But because of the tears in the corners of his eyes and Roland's physical condition, even though he bit with all his strength, he couldn't feel any deterrent effect.

Roland even interpreted this teasing gesture as having another meaning.

"Are you unhappy? Yes, even though you are a demon god, you are still a girl, and this method is indeed a bit rough."

Roland smiled slightly, let go of his hand, and returned to his original fixed posture of holding his chin.

Then, in the girl's astonished gaze, he lowered his head.

The girl who was trying to remain calm could no longer maintain her expression, and her pretty face turned red.

She seemed to want to resist, but because she was slowly being lifted up, her petite body lost its fulcrum and became weaker and weaker. In the end, she could only weakly grab Roland's clothes on his back.

I don't know how long I remained silent, in this dark world where the passage of time had no meaning.

Othinus finally got some breathing space.

She leaned on Roland's chest, looking like a soft and weak girl.

Blood mixed with saliva slowly flowed down.

The rusty smell and the happiness from the heart give the girl a mysterious beauty.

"Fool!"

After a long while, the girl raised her head angrily.

The pieces that were constantly falling off her body and her increasingly slow mind had all returned to normal.

The pain that was previously imperceptible became clear again.

Even the transparent body regained its real sense of existence.

Forced into a dead end, Othinus was well aware of his situation.

In her current condition, let alone Roland, even ordinary magicians combined could take her life.

Besides, she was beyond help.

This kind of physical collapse is unstoppable. Even if you are a demon god, you cannot stop this process.

Even if they are both demon gods, the most they can do is retain the residue and combine into a new individual.

But now, she seems to have regained her power to her perfect form.

The reason for this counter-logical result is very simple.

——She became Roland’s bonded spirit.

Although she is also a demon, as a dying phantom, she has no right to refuse the contract, so she is able to reshape her power.

But Othinus was not at all happy.

"In that case, what will you do? This is a force from outside this world. The other demon gods will soon be looking for the reason for my defeat, and then they will follow the clues to find you!"

"Besides...and I can't let you digest it right away now. What if I betray you again?"

Even if you are close friends, it takes time to elevate the relationship.

Even if two people fall in love at first sight, they still need to interact with each other for their love to become lasting.

Although I can empathize with him as an understanding spirit, it still takes some time for me to truly digest the spirit named Othinus.

To the girl, this was an unreasonable and risky move.

But a calm voice answered her.

"It doesn't matter. After all... the last thing I lack is time."

boom--

That's the sound of the gears getting stuck.

Othinus was stunned for a moment.

"You stopped time... for three thousand years?"

"If the realm is different, break through."

"If mutual comfort and understanding alone cannot completely satisfy your heart, then make up for it with actions. No matter what... I want Othinus to be mine."

Roland smiled and touched the girl's soft hair, revealing a pleased expression.

"Although this journey will take three thousand years, it may be a bit troublesome for you if it is longer.
——Othinus, run with me for a while.” (End of this chapter)
