"Okay, then now you should show me..."

Will's words were stuck in mid-sentence because at this moment, he was pulled over by Lucifer's reaction force.

then……

She must have made Will stare into her purple eyes on purpose.

Oh yes, purple.

From the moment she appeared, these purple eyes seemed to have some kind of demonic flavor. Now if you look closely, there seem to be circles drawn in her purple eyes, like a commonly used hypnosis. It's just like a prop, just one look at it will pull him into that world little by little——

"I can finally raise my head, so welcome to 'The Fear Deep in Your Heart' - but there are three levels, so take your time!"

!

Will opened his eyes again.

He glanced behind him, but Xiuna was not behind him.

Spiritual department.

Correct……

This is either a "dream" or an "illusion" that combines reality and fiction.

In short, it was an illusion created for him in an instant by Lucifer, a race of "devils" who stood at the top of the spiritual system.

But, what kind of illusion is this?

Spiritual bosses usually create a problem related to your heart for you to overcome.

that……

“The fear deep within you”…

Okay, isn't this just an ordinary "Oh, I'm a spiritual BOSS, so I have to materialize your inner fears" plan?

See more.

But what might his fear be?

Will was stunned for a moment, because, standing in the thick fog was...

The three girls he was very familiar with.

Chapter 227 What you fear

Yiel.

Leah.

Treya.

The three teammates stood in the fog, but they were not "angry". They were like puppets held by strings, hanging there precariously.

Will was stunned for a moment.

The fear in his heart, is it them?

Hmm... If anything, there was something about these three people who had "gone dark" that frightened him.

After all, the strength is there.jpg.

……wrong.

Yiel's ears were drooped.

Leah's eyes did not have the heart symbolizing love.

And Treya...

She also wears a black eyepatch over her left eye.

These characteristics are not what they have now, but what they have experienced in the past.

In the original story, they looked like this.Whether it was because they didn't dare to take that step, or because they were arrogant, or because they failed to understand their inner desires, they ended up like this...

The look of a defeated dog.

Not only were they defeated by the monsters in the new dungeon trained by Shu, but they also lived a life that was not considered successful after that.

This may also be one of the pleasures that the original work hopes to create, not only to hit them in the "now", but also to show that their lives will not be good in the future.Only then can you construct a picture in your heart that everyone would be happy if you were around.

but……

Their bodies were gradually painted with color.

The "light" slanting down from the top of their heads is like a dye, giving them a color more like a sparkling "girl in love", but there seems to be a touch of dizzying enchantment in this color. Existence is both fascinating and indescribably terrifying.

If the ones being led just now were lifeless puppets like white molds, the longer Will stood here, the colors on their bodies became richer and richer.

but……

The shadows on the ground emerged little by little, covering the light with the sickle in his hand.

Will understood.

"I see, that's it. Should I say that he is worthy of being a spiritual BOSS? At least he grasped this level very accurately."

——In the first of the three levels of the "most fearful" thing, my "fear" is not the "blackening" of the three of them.

Will drew his sword from his waist again.

Walk towards those shadows with claws and teeth.

——But they cannot be "blackened".

He was afraid that he would not be able to see their growth, and that they would still be the same as in the original work.

It can only be said that as a "demon" and a spiritual BOSS who can read "memories" and "emotions", he is indeed very keen on understanding people's hearts.

but……

"Fear" like this is not worth mentioning at all.

The light of the sword flashed in the black room, and Will chopped off those shadows.

When it ends like this, they will gradually become what they were in the original work, just like what he expected...

"Okay, it looks like it's not difficult for you, then...the second level."

While Will was still thinking this, like the echo of a broadcast, Lucifer's voice came from all directions in the black space. She seemed to be sitting in a nice auditorium, watching very happily.

"So it's very unreasonable to have this thing go through three levels. Just wait for everyone to run away!"

Will didn't finish his words, because what he saw in front of him was...

A dark male figure.

He couldn't see his appearance clearly. Compared with the previous shadow, the area covered by black was almost the same.

but……

Will knew very well that this man was...

It is "cultivation".

Of course he didn't know what it would be like to live in front of a person he had only seen in illustrations and animations, not to mention that Xiu's description was still very clichéd as "average-looking black hair and black eyes."

There will be such a feeling, it is more like a "cognitive" influence of oneself.

Just like in a dream, if a person appears, you will most likely not be able to see his face clearly, but you will definitely know who he is.

and……

Fight with Xiu?

To be honest, before he found out that this person disappeared and turned into Shona beside him, he thought about this scene countless times, and had to have a head-on conflict with the real protagonist of the original work, and how to defeat him.

The final answer is probably to lose completely.Not only in terms of "destiny", but also in terms of strength, he is not within the reach of ordinary people.

Why am I afraid of cultivation in my heart?

Is it because he has the absolute advantage of being the "protagonist" and symbolizes an existence that cannot be defeated?

This seems to make some sense.

but……

He walked over step by step, looking very "gentle", and seemed to have no intention of fighting Will.

Instead, he stood still in front of him, stretched out his hand, and picked up the sword in his hand.

"What do you want to do..."

Will found that he couldn't move. Not only was his hand controlled by him, but his body couldn't move either.

then……

Will watched helplessly as the sword was stabbed into his own chest by Xiu.

Blood began to flow along the blade and even into Will's palm.

"What's wrong with you?!"

Will wanted to pull out the sword, but found that he couldn't. He raised his head and looked at the face opposite.

Shona.

The face of a beautiful girl with some heroic spirit, her short black hair gradually lengthened, covering the side of her face.

Will's heart tightened.

He couldn't move, and the sword was inserted into Shona's chest bit by bit.

He understood what he was afraid of reflected in the "second level".

It was precisely in the past few days that he realized what he was most afraid of...

The Shona who is beside him is actually the original protagonist, and her fate will eventually move closer to that of the original protagonist.

"Tsk..."

Will seemed to have broken free of this layer of restraint, and fiercely pulled the sword out of her heart, causing blood to fall on the ground.

Even if Shona were him, Will wouldn't do anything.

The moment he pulled out the sword, Shona's shadow in front of him turned into nothingness and dissipated in this space.

"Not bad, not bad. I passed the second level this way."

"Huh...huh...huh..."

The force from the sword he just pulled out was still in his hand, and Will gasped.

Does this count as “defeating fear”?

Admitting that Shona is the protagonist in the original work won't "kill Shona in my heart"... even if it means "defeating fear"?

Will touched his beating heart throughout the second level. Although Lucifer admitted it,...he obviously didn't think so.

why?

He didn't want to believe that Shona was the protagonist in the original work...

"Okay, the third level is too long. Let's bring up the third level."

"Here's to-"

Will heard Lucifer take a deep breath, and then said loudly in a tone that sounded like a performance——

"The deepest, deepest fear in your heart!"

"I, the empress of the Tenth Castle, spent more than half of my power creating the last level for you!"

"The deepest, deepest shadow for a person -"

"What is it?"

Will saw a door appear before him.

Correct.

He was also curious about what it was...

After all, the beneficiary of such a "show your inner fear" level is not the BOSS, but the participants themselves.

Through such mandatory behavior like a "system of rules", participants can gain a deeper understanding of their own hearts.
