So I became a witch

Seeing her resolute gaze, I realized that I probably couldn't hide it, so I could only smile wryly: "It's a good thing you can detect it."

"You may indeed be very strong, but that is by no means something that can be easily expelled."

"Well, it's really troublesome, and to be honest, it's quite troublesome now. But don't tell others this."

"why?"

"I simply don't want to be known. To me, being owed a favor is as annoying as being owed a favor."

"How strange."

"I can't deny this. Then, it's not too early. Thank you for your care in the past few days. Then, see you again." I stood up from the bed and grabbed the empty handle I asked others to make for me. After the scabbard, go outside the door and see you again.

"Really, can we meet again?"

"...Ah, as long as we live, there will be a day when we meet. So, before that, be careful not to die."

"Well. Goodbye, then."

In this way, except for Sha Rui, I left this temporary shelter for only a few days without telling anyone, and continued on an unknown journey.Angela and her children arrived at the shelter safely, because I stayed in the room for a long time, so I was not recognized; and the girl I met at the door at the beginning, her sister was there after that Gradually getting better, the two joined the cooking team together, earnestly helping everyone in the camp prepare daily food.There are still many people, even in such a doomsday, they are still smiling hard.

Looking at them like that, I can't help but think, maybe the fact of being alive is enough to be a reason to live.In any case, only being alive is the most important thing. Even if what is waiting ahead is only pain and torture, I still firmly believe in the day when hope will come.

"Hmm!" The sharp pain erupted without warning, and I couldn't even bear the tactile sensation of piercing the needle tip one by one from the nerve endings.The period before the outbreak of severe pain seemed to be much shorter.That's why I was in a hurry to leave the refuge. I was afraid that if it was later, I might lose even the strength to get out.

A rusty smell gushed out of my throat. I lowered my head and spit out the bruised blood onto the ground. The whole sand immediately sank a bit, and the black mist emitted a penetrating "hiss". The sound is enough to show its virulence.I couldn't help but put on a wry smile. Even now, I still feel that I have underestimated it. Not only the body, but also the soul will be wiped out. There is no way to solve it. Might be procrastinating.

Please take care of my body, at least hold me up until everything is over.I sincerely pray.

========================

Six years have passed since the disaster broke out.

Although it is so recognized, in fact, in the early stage of the appearance of the Black Abyss, it can even be said that just a few months ago, the world was far from being in crisis like it is now.At the beginning, the number of Black Abyss was very rare. Except for the original Black Abyss, there were only a few scattered around the world, and the level of virtual beasts that appeared was not high. Support can be suppressed by force.

Chapter 72 Holy Capital

However, just a few months ago, the disaster seemed to erupt suddenly overnight. The number and quality of virtual beasts soared instantly, and the black film covering the sky became larger and larger, and more and more people died of An invisible curse, in the face of this unprecedented disaster, human power is too weak, the machine called the country has already stopped functioning, and the only person who can stand up at this time is the one who is dubbed the murderer. The girls in the name of the gods.

In the middle of the boundless yellow sand, stands a pure white ancient city.It is hard to imagine that this country was once called the holy capital, but now, there is only endless darkness, and the only city that still shines with light.

"Is this the place where the original Black Abyss was born?" I said to myself, looking through the black curtain, I saw a huge void hidden under the storm not far away, beyond my imagination. The herd is waiting for an opportunity, millions, tens of millions, or even more than [-] million?If this number of virtual beasts were to disperse completely, it would be enough to destroy all human beings in less than a day.

However, compared to these, what I care more about is what is hidden under that huge void.Death, hatred, joy, pain, and countless unknowable information are mixed in it, like a vortex of chaos.

When I came back to my senses, I noticed that my body was trembling slightly because of fear.Just like mice are afraid of cats and antelopes are afraid of lions, it is the innate suppression of inferior beings from higher beings.

So what the hell is it?

After witnessing it with my own eyes, my estimation of the battle situation became more and more desperate.As Thanostin said, this world has long been on the verge of destruction. These so-called black abysses are actually the openings of the seals, and at this level, it is almost impossible to close them again. , the only way is to pull out the sword of the star seal, completely exile this world, relying on the power of nothingness, maybe the disaster can be isolated.

"Who?!" When I got close to the city wall, an invisible barrier blocked me, and the radiant girl stood on top of the wall and asked sharply from top to bottom.

I raised my head, looked at the familiar figure on the city wall, and felt a little emotional: "Although it doesn't seem to be long for me, it should have been several years for you... Long time no see, Isabel."

In the past six years, her appearance didn't seem to have changed much, she still had that small appearance, but the dexterity of an adolescent girl in her eyes had been replaced by mature eyes.

"You are... Kong!" Seeing me standing under the city wall, she showed an unbelievable expression, but she still didn't act rashly, but asked in a deep voice, "Why, are you here?"

"Well, there are a few things that I want to discuss with the Pope."

"...Sorry, the Pope won't be meeting anyone right now."

"Isabel."

"...Enough, go back. This is not where you should come."

"Well, since they are all here, it would be too inhumane to just let the guests leave like this." Another figure suddenly appeared beside Isabel on the city wall.

That is, the current Pope Ammos.

Compared with him in the past, he seems to have become more coercive. Even with the thick dark circles under his eyes, there is a feeling that people cannot be underestimated.

"Long time no see, grandparents, how are they doing?" I said.

"Unfortunately, my father and mother passed away a few years ago."

"...Is it because of the Black Abyss?"

"No, it's just simply birth, old age, sickness and death. However, they were always worried about your safety before they passed away. It's great to see that you are fine now, and I can finally give those two a good explanation."

"Really... Grandpa, grandma and the others..." I whispered, my heart twitched inexplicably.For me who lived with my parents since I was a child, the care my grandfather gave me was unprecedented. From them, I felt the family affection called family for the first time.

"It seems that you have a lot to say, so why don't you come in and talk about it?"

The door opened slowly, and the invisible barrier that blocked me melted away. As soon as I stepped through the door, I felt a sharp pain in my left hand. Those curses lurking on my body seemed to be resisting this place instinctively. After a slight pause, he stepped in calmly.

"Hmm!" The sharp pain even distorted my face for a moment, but I recovered immediately.Then, the severe pain disappeared, and I clearly felt the curse that had been restless all this time. After entering this city, it was rare to calm down. The air floating in the city was also fresher than ever before. This world covered by black mist is completely different.

It's unbelievable, I didn't expect such a pure place to exist in this kind of doomsday, no wonder it was at the forefront of the battle line, but it was still not destroyed.

In the city, there is snow-white everywhere, and even the flowers and plants planted have a white breath.There are far fewer buildings in the city than imagined. Except for the surrounding city walls and the huge tower standing in the center of the city, there are only a few flat buildings that look like residences, neatly arranged on top of the tower. The surrounding area, and other places are all composed of large flower gardens and pools, like a paradise in the story, completely different from the miracle city of Hertis I have seen.In other words, how does this city with a strong religious atmosphere turn into the messy food stall style of later generations.

"I've been waiting for a long time, do you need me to take you for a stroll?" After the Pope came down from the city wall, he walked to my side naturally.

"No, let's forget it at this time." I declined him politely.

"Is it really not necessary? Maybe in the future, I will never see it again." Amos said with a smile.

"...Then I'll leave it to you."

"Oh, in that case, this is the place I recommend the most!" Amos pulled me towards the city with a look of enthusiasm, while Isabel followed behind us without saying a word, Acting as the guard of Amos.

"This is it!" After passing through the flower bushes that are as tall as a person, what unfolded in front of my eyes was a calm and clear lake surrounded by flowers and green grass. The waves of silk make people feel drowsy all of a sudden, it must be a good place to take a nap.

Chapter 73 The Eye of Hertes

"Oh, it's been a long time since I came here." Amos said with great emotion, as if he was nostalgic. This place to lie down, as a place to take a nap is quite rare."

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be someone of the same kind, and my favorability for Amos suddenly increased a lot.

"But what exactly is this place?" I asked casually.

Before Amos answered, Isabel answered first: "This is the lake of divine purity. It used to be a place where godslayers bathed. Whenever a major ceremony was held, the saintess would come here to wash away their bodies and souls. The filth, so as to keep myself spotless. However, it seems that it was not used a long time ago, and counting the time, it happened to be the time when the Pope was studying in the holy capital."

"..." I looked at the Pope with cold eyes, and the good impression I had just raised suddenly dropped to the lowest point.

"Ahem, well, that's all in the past." The Pope seemed to cough awkwardly, looking at this place with a little nostalgia, "It was here that Rockefeller's mother and I met. of."

"Rockefeller's mother? Is she also a godslayer?" I said in surprise.

"Well. In fact, the popes of all ages will choose to marry the saint, and the offspring they give birth will also be trained as the next pope."

"Isn't this exactly the hereditary throne?"

Amos smiled: "Exactly. However, your words should be understandable."

"In order to maintain the purity of the blood?"

"Exactly. Because of some special reasons, it is becoming more and more difficult for the blood of the gods to manifest in our descendants. Only a very small number of girls will awaken the power of God, and most of them will be taken in by the church. Become a member of the godslayer."

"This is just part of the rhetoric. The most important thing is to hold this power in your own hands so as to maintain the church's dominance." Now I am enough to discern the meaning beyond other people's words.

"Yes, it is undeniable that the church is using them." The pope admitted very readily, "but it is also to protect their existence from those lawless people. The gods have fallen for a long time, and this world has long since It is not the world of gods, but the world of people. However, no matter in what era, there are guys who try to subvert peace and make profits from it, just like those pagans who want to resurrect evil gods. If they know that the saint With their true colors, they will definitely try to capture them by any means.”

"I didn't expect the Pope, who was supposed to be the messenger of the gods, to say such things."

"People should never rely on God, but on themselves. Even so, we are just relying on the inheritance of the gods to survive." The Pope laughed at himself, "Of course, even if the Holy Spirit When a woman marries an ordinary person, the possibility that the offspring will awaken the blood of God is extremely low, with only one exception."

"That is, the Pope?"

Amos nodded, and he slowly raised his pure white jade hand, which was almost unmanly. On the index finger of his right hand, he wore a ring inlaid with Eifel crystal.But that was different from the pure native Eifel crystal I was carrying. It was clearly carved and processed, and under the pure white light, various complex symbols were faintly engraved.

"This is the god-killing weapon held by the popes of all ages, the Eye of Hertis. Mastering it is equivalent to mastering the entire city of miracles. In fact, this was once the residence of the gods, because of the ancestors , and was given such a holy place. As long as you master it, you can be said to be almost invincible in this city."

I stared intently at the ring on the pope's hand, and indeed there was an aura similar to that of this city coming from it, and the pope wearing it was just like the one I saw him at first, with a deep aura unpredictable.

Forbidden, no, maybe a higher level.He really didn't lie. With this God Destroyer weapon, he can be said to be integrated with the entire city.As the former residence of the gods, it is equivalent to a terrifying weapon. No wonder it can suppress those curses. As long as it is in this city, the Pope’s strength is not as good as the real God’s glory, but I’m afraid it’s not much different. Bar.

No wonder this world has been able to last so long under the erosion of the Black Abyss. Was it because of the Pope?

However, this alone is not enough.You must know that the truly terrifying thing under that black abyss has not yet appeared.That is an existence that can kill even immortal gods. Even if the Pope really mastered the power of Shenyao, the ending would be ten deaths and no life.

"Is it really okay to show me something so important?" I said.

"For the sake of what I'm going to say next, I have to show my utmost sincerity." The Pope said very sincerely, "Son, can I call you that? There is one thing I want to ask you."

"What?" I replied to him absent-mindedly, but my thoughts had already drifted far away.

"May I ask you to be my son Rockefeller's wife?"

"Oh... Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey back?" Because this completely unexpected request made me almost breathless Did not catch my breath.

"This, this joke is not funny at all, and I remember that Rockefeller was only ten years old? It's completely unnecessary to talk about marriage at this time?" It took me a lot of effort to let myself His breath eased.

The Pope looked at me very seriously and said, "I'm not kidding, that kid, but he really likes you. And, maybe you haven't realized that, he is already 16 years old now, and in today's world, he is quite enough. become an adult."

I froze for a moment, then remembered that six years had passed since my time, the world.In my mind, I unconsciously recalled that little boy who was a bit weak like a girl. Because he was too petite, he was often treated as a six or seven-year-old girl by me at the time because he was too petite. When grandparents weren't paying attention, they secretly changed him into women's clothes for fun.It's not that I have any special hobbies, it's just that when I lost my memory, I subconsciously treated him as my younger sister.I don't know what happened to him now?Will he grow into a handsome guy who is as charming as his father, or will he become a fake beautiful girl like in the past?

Chapter 74 Alpha Project

Although I was stunned, I still shook my head desperately: "No, no, no, there is absolutely no way that child likes me. Even if there is, you also said that six years have passed, and you are just a child." It’s just something similar to my longing. To me, he is like a younger sister... how can I marry him.”

What's more, that child is very likely to be Andrea's ancestor. If I'm really with him, the generational hierarchy will be completely messed up, right?And the most important point is that I am a boy with a normal personality orientation. Even if I take a step back, it is absolutely impossible for me to marry a boy, even if I am a pseudo-mother!

"Really not?"

"Absolutely, absolutely impossible!" I crossed my hands in front of my chest, and said with great determination.

"Then there is no other way." Amos sighed.

He gave up so decisively, which made me stunned for a moment, but considering the reason he might bring up again, I asked cautiously: "Speaking of which, why me? Obviously besides me, someone who is more beautiful and has a good personality There should be a lot of gods... right? And if they say it, they probably won't refuse the Pope's request."

"First of all, it's because you are loved by your father and mother. I'm afraid they really treat you as their granddaughter. If you can be with Rockefeller, they must be gratified in the spirit of heaven."

"...Grandpa and grandma?" I sighed with some headaches. It was they who gave me an identity and a place to live with amnesia, and also gave me a family affection that I had never experienced before. I am very grateful for this. If I A real girl might really consider marrying Rockefeller.

However, no matter what I look like, I have always been a man in my heart. It seems that if the cute girl in an online game is exposed and the actual controller is actually a fat man, it will only make people feel sick, right?

"Secondly, because of the tradition of the church, every consort of the pope will be the strongest godslayer. This is also to ensure the purity of the blood, and you have such power. You don't need to touch the Eifel crystal, To be able to explode with such a powerful force shows that your genes possess such unparalleled potential."

"No, my situation is just quite special..." Even if I say it, no one will believe that I am actually a witch born from nothingness, "Wait, if you put it this way, it shouldn't be..."

"Well, my lord mother, she was once the strongest godslayer in the church, but after she married her father, she gradually retired. And the wife, that is, Rockefeller's mother, was also the last The strongest among the godslayers."

"Wait, I don't remember who was the strongest godslayer last time..." I suddenly widened my eyes.

"She chose to sacrifice herself to the seal, buying more time for this world." Thanostin's words floated in my mind again.The original seal was about to be shattered 16 years ago. It was she who sacrificed her own life and merged into the seal made of divine power, which gave the world a breath of relief.

That person turned out to be the Pope's wife and Rockefeller's mother?

"Looking at your expression, you seem to know something?"

I took a deep breath and said slowly, "I have been to the place of divine breath, which is the lowest level of the seal."

Hearing my words, Isabel showed an extremely surprised expression, while Pope Amos was very calm, as if he had foreseen all this: "I see, then, what did you learn from it?"

"The seal of this world, and the source of that darkness...Give it up, it's not something you can overcome, it's better to stay here and die..."

"Escape? Where do you think we can escape to?" Amos said calmly.

I froze for a moment and clenched my fists unconsciously.Yes, where can I go?This world itself is a seal, once the seal is lifted, the whole world will die completely.For the people living here, originally, the only option is DEAD END.

"Then, and the final reason. You don't belong to this world, do you?"

Facing the Pope's gaze, I nodded silently.

"Just take it as my selfishness. If possible, I hope you can take Rockefeller away from this world and go to a safe place."

"...Is this the Pope's request?"

"No, it's a father's request." Amos lowered his head, with some self-blame in his voice, "That child must be hating me. I'm not a qualified father. For him who lost his mother since childhood, he can only Please father to take care of him. The previous request is the same, if it is you, maybe you can let that child show his heart."

"Sorry, I can't do that." I said, shaking my head.Not to mention the current situation where my strength has been greatly reduced due to the curse, even if I regain all my strength, it will be difficult to take an ordinary person to travel between worlds.That's not just kidding, even with the tough body of the God Forbidden, if he tries to cross the world membrane in vain, he will be torn to pieces, and only a freak born from nothing like a witch can easily to do this.

"Really?" Amos nodded without showing any regret.

"... In this case, what are you going to do?" I said with some self-blame, but in the end, I still didn't play any role.

Amos smiled: "Don't worry, we didn't have any expectations for this. And even if you don't come, we don't intend to sit still."

"I mean, is there any other way?"
