Zongman: A Traveling Journey Starting from the Supreme

'This is what death feels like...'

Nangong Nayue sighed softly in her heart, but felt that there was nothing wrong with it.

Her delicate and beautiful body like a puppet fell to the ground of nothingness.

After such a long time, Nangong Nayue once again felt the return of consciousness. She opened her misty eyes in a daze, and slowly got up from the ground.

The memory before suicide came to mind again, she looked down and saw that there was no scar on her flat chest, not even her clothes were damaged.

Even the countless bloody mouths that had been split on his body before had returned to their original appearance.

The obsidian dagger was still thrown under his feet, and the tip of the dagger was stained with blood, which made Nangong Nayue know that everything before was not an illusion.

She did choose to commit suicide, she did die, but she came back to life.

He raised his head again and wanted to look at the terrifying existence, but the stinging pain caused by staring at that existence made Nangong Nayue almost shed tears.

She quickly lowered her head and sighed softly.

Even death cannot be chosen by herself, and she is really a living doll now.

Although in the past, friends she knew laughed and said she was as delicate and cute as a doll, but Nangong never thought that one day she would become a doll.

The Maharaja who claims to master death and darkness can even reverse life and death, which is reasonable after thinking about it.

"No more resistance?"

The terrifying figure spoke in words that didn't have much human emotion.

Nangong restrained her thoughts that month, she is not the kind of person who gives up easily.

"I accept this contract, unknown god!"

This time, Nangong Nayue decisively accepted the contract with the other party.

Since you can't even choose to commit suicide, then challenge this unknown game and sign a contract with Him to sell your soul.

Anyway, as a witch, she was going to sell her soul. If so, who would not sell her soul to?

What the other party said before is actually not wrong.

Even if she signed a contract with a demon she knew, the content of the contract was nothing more than the witch's wish, and this wish was the capital to maintain the contract.

Looking at the content of the contract now, it seems that the demon contracted with her is even more terrifying, so the power she gains should theoretically be stronger.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that it is not unacceptable.

Nangong Nayue thought to herself mockingly, at this moment she could only comfort herself in this way.

It's just that the difference from the past is that if the contract is violated, only the witch herself will pay the price.

But if she breaks the contract now, the whole world may pay the price.

What worried and feared Nangong Nayue the most was actually her wish.

Only by fulfilling one's own wishes can one win the game.

But her wish is 'peaceful coexistence of humans and demons', this wish is too grand, it is like looking forward to world peace.

At this time, Nangong rarely complained to himself, why did he have such a wish, and the difficulty of fulfilling the wish was too high.

But Nangong Nayue is not a person who gives up lightly, she is resolute and strong in her mind, which is the most beautiful brilliance of her character.

"I will accept your soul, and the contract is hereby established!"

"...the incarnation I created will give you strength, and he will be your guardian, as well as your watcher!"

"If you break the contract, He will cut off your head, and darkness and death will completely descend on the land where you are!"

The indescribable voice was engraved in Nangong Nayue's mind, and then Nangong Nayue felt that her thoughts were stretched infinitely, leaving that strange space.

After Nangong Nayue disappeared, Xixiang, who was sitting on the throne, lost his false appearance and revealed his true colors.

Feeling the nutrition tirelessly nourishing his growth, he narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "...Accepting the contract and getting a channel to connect with the world will allow me to obtain the nutrients for growth."

"...And judging from the situation in Nangong that month, the ones who will be favored by my invitation letter should be those who have strong wishes."

"If that's the case, why did only Nangong accept the invitation that month and the others didn't?"

Xixiang was a little puzzled, he played with the soul of Nangong Nayue with his fingertips, but he couldn't think of a reason.

"Forget it, don't think about it if you don't understand it. Now there is a world that provides me with nutrition, and I can't lose it easily."

Thinking of this, Xixiang followed the road signs provided by Nangong that month, and he disappeared completely in the darkness.

……

Xiandumu Aye paced anxiously at the magic circle of the ceremony, she didn't know what went wrong with the ceremony.

At this moment, the magic light was emitted again in the ceremony. She looked nervously, and was pleasantly surprised to see Nangong Nayue's petite figure appearing in the ceremony circle again.

"What happened in that month? Has the ceremony been completed? Concubine..."

Xiandumu Aye was about to say something when her long and delicate body trembled.

Because behind Nangong Nayue's doll-like beautiful body, a terrifying demon formed by pitch-black fire suddenly appeared in front of her.

"Let me introduce myself, I am one of the avatars created by the Maharaja, in charge of the name of 'aging'!"

"...you can call me 'Zarathustra', Nangong that month and...the secretary's witch!"

The demon formed from the black flames was polite and spoke very gentlemanly, but his words were full of malice and pleasure.

Chapter 18 Simulated Star Creation Map "Avesta"!

(It's really troublesome to compare combat power across works, so I'm the author's setting as the main one and it's over.)

(Unless there is a huge difference in expressiveness between the two sides, I will not deliberately strengthen or weaken a certain work.)

Xiandumu Ayemei's eyes widened, and she looked in shock at the demon who suddenly appeared behind Nangong Nayue and called herself 'Zarathustra'.

In the impression of the scribe witch, the so-called demon is not actually a life with self-will.

Demons are different from demons. Demons are a collective name for many races that actually exist in this world.

Vampires, orcs, ghosts, dragons, and even elves, whether they are populous or sparse, or extinct, these non-human races are collectively called demons.

But demons are different. Demons are not a race.

Demons are more like a collection of concepts, a mechanism similar to a contract, and exist in this world like some established rules.

The witch signed a contract with this mechanism and sold her soul in exchange for power beyond ordinary people.

At the same time, the witch must also abide by the content of the contract, and the power of the devil will manifest as a family member hiding in the shadow of the witch.

When the witch complies with the contract, the subordinate demons will become part of the witch's power and obey the command of the other party. This is the 'guardian of the witch'.

But when the witch breaks the contract, the guardian will become an executioner in a blink of an eye.

They will turn the witch into a real monster, lose her human form and humanity, and die after a long torture.

The witch can never resist the demon she contracted with, because the witch's soul has already been held in the hands of the demon.

It is precisely because the devil has no self-will that Xiandumu Aye was shocked and unbelievable after seeing the "guardian" behind Nangong that month.

In so many records of witches throughout the ages, it has never been heard that the guardian of the witch has a will of her own, and she has never heard of a demon with a will of her own.

The devil is just a rule of operation.

Because the devil is just a certain rule, there are loopholes. At least Xiandumu Aye has mastered the secret method of lending his guardian to others, and then forcibly signing a contract with the other party.

"That month, what happened?"

Xiandumu Aye looked at Xixiang vigilantly, and the beauty wearing a twelve-single kimono stepped back a few steps, ready to summon her guardian to fight at any time.

Hearing Xiandumu Aye's words, Nangong Nayue looked a little hesitant.

She knew that Xiandumu Aye was actually asking why her guardian had self-awareness.

Nangong really didn't know how to explain that month, she knew that the maharaja of death and darkness she saw was definitely not the devil in the impression of witches.

She was also hesitating whether to tell Xiandumu Aye about such a terrible existence.

Sometimes, the less you know, the safer you are, and the less you know, the less trouble you have.

Taking a deep breath, Nangong Nayue's face was calm and calm, and she said in her inarticulate voice: "...it's okay, Ah Ye, just encountered a little trouble."

Seeing that Nangong didn't explain the situation clearly that month, Xiandumu Aye probably guessed that she had something to hide now.

Glancing again at the gentlemanly, seemingly polite flame demon, Xiandumu Aye also nodded slowly, signaling that he knew.

At the same time, Xiandumu Aye also has a strong curiosity and exploration of Xixiang.

As the leader of the LCO, Xiandumu Aye has the same thirst for knowledge as the members of the LCO.

She also wanted to explore the weird guardian situation like Nangong Nayue.

The demon's body formed of pitch-black flames is completely different from the guardian of the witches.

Compared to the Witch's Guardians, this monster is actually more like a demon that people pass on by word of mouth.

"If there's anything else, it's better to talk about the old days later. Nangong also had the secretary's witch Xiandumu Aye that month."

"...It seems that I robbed the contract halfway, causing a problem with a certain mechanism, and want to take this contract away."

Listening to Xixiang's inexplicable words, both Nangong Nayue and Xiandumu Aye were at a loss.

But the next moment, they knew the meaning of Xixiang's words.

I saw that the ritual circle used by Nangong that month to sign a contract with the devil was once again shining with a rich and substantial brilliance.

Under the helpless gaze of everyone, a tall, golden 'knight' made of mechanical gears appeared in the magic circle!

"This is... a guardian? No, it's a real demon!"

When Xiandumu Aye saw the golden knight appearing, her complexion changed drastically, and she finally recognized her true face.

That inhuman magic power, like a "knight" posture, is exactly what Xiandumu Aye is familiar with, and what the guardian of all witches has.

But the magical power emitted by this guardian is too huge, so huge that it exceeds Xiandumu Aye's understanding of the guardian.

"The magic power of this intensity is comparable to that of the True Ancestor's Beast... No, even a single True Ancestor's Beast does not have such powerful magic power!"

Although Xiandumu Aye was surprised by the magical power of the golden guardian in front of her, she still stood in front of Nangong Nayue without hesitation to protect her.

In Xiandumu Aye's view, Nangong Nyue, who had just become a real witch, was still unable to skillfully use the power of a witch.

What makes Xiandumu Aye strange is that since Nangong had a guardian that month, why is there a new guardian here?

Although the beasts of the True Ancestor are powerful, they are almost as terrifying as disasters.

But the beasts of the True Ancestor are not invincible.

If the three True Ancestors who lived for an unknown number of years were here, Xiandumu Aye would naturally be no match.

However, if it is only a monster with the magical power of the true ancestor's beast, but without self-will, then Xiandumu Aye can also protect Nangong Zhouquan that month.

Combat is not a competition of magic power, it also requires sufficient skills and experience.

Even if the ancestor's beasts were handed over to an ordinary person to command, that ordinary person would probably not be able to face an excellent magician except for using the beasts to destroy them.

On the contrary, an excellent attacking magician can use various external conditions to kill that ordinary person.

'This guardian, or the devil should be the one that Nangong Nayue himself wants to sign the contract with. '

'...Because of my appearance, the contract was accidentally intercepted, causing problems in the ceremony, so it appeared to kill me and take back the contract? '

Xixiang could tell that the golden knight was coming for him.

'Xiandumu Aye said that this guardian has magic power comparable to or even surpassing that of the True Ancestor's Beast. Well, I probably know the level of the True Ancestor's Beast. '

A single true ancestral beast is probably at the level of an elite monster in Yggdrasills.

Let alone him, any guardian in the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick can solve it.

The only thing that makes people feel troublesome is that according to Xixiang's understanding, these beasts of the true ancestors are a bit strong in destructive power, and their lethality is a bit wide.

But if a group of monsters of this level appeared, Xixiang would also feel a headache.

It's not that he hasn't swarmed monsters before, but the monsters he swarmed were all unconscious NPCs, just like the guardian in front of him.

But if these beasts are manipulated by someone, such as a certain true ancestor, then I am afraid it will be a more difficult enemy.

'In the past, when facing this kind of monster group, we all fought in teams. '
