The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel.

Chapter 534 Summoning
David stood in the crowd and witnessed all this terrible thing.

His eyes were wide open, filled with shock and fear, and he seemed to be under a spell, unable to move.

The bloody and crazy scene before him was like an extremely heavy hammer, hitting his heart hard, causing layers of storms in his heart.

At this moment, his heart was in extreme struggle and torment. The belief in God that was once extremely sacred and rock-solid in his heart began to crumble and was gradually shaken in this bloody and violent conflict.

The speaker's unyielding figure under heavy attacks was deeply imprinted in his mind like a branding iron and could not be erased.

He couldn't help but recall every word the speaker had said. Those words were like torches that suddenly lit up in the darkness, instantly igniting the flame of dissatisfaction and resistance to the status quo that had been hidden deep in his heart, making the flame burn brighter and brighter.

[We are not wrong at all. Those people are just poor idiots who have been kept in the dark and deceived.]

What's the point of gods? We've suffered so much for so long, and they've never once offered us a helping hand. Why should we still believe in them?

Is it true that only by removing our reliance on gods can we truly focus on rebuilding our broken home, rather than offering meaningless and futile prayers?

David's thoughts were like weeds growing wildly in spring, disorganized yet unstoppable.

Those thoughts that he had once suppressed deep in his heart were now like a raging flood that had burst its banks, running wildly and roaring in his inner world.

He could no longer suppress the intense anger and deep resentment in his heart.

The speaker who bravely spoke the truth was obviously so righteous and brave, but in the end he ended up with a tragic end. His body was thrown into the deserted wilderness like discarded garbage, and no one cared about him.

When there was no one around, David quietly came to the wilderness.

His eyes revealed a firmness and determination, as if he had made some unshakable resolution.

His movements were extremely gentle, as if the tool in his hand was not used to dig a hole, but to protect an extremely precious treasure, and he was afraid that a little heavier force would hurt the deceased body.

In fact, he was not just burying the speaker's body.
He was also burying the cowardly, confused self of the past who still had a glimmer of fantasy about God.

Although David's movements were very gentle, his heart was like a turbulent sea, filled with all kinds of complex and strong emotions.

Hatred was like a raging fire, burning more and more fiercely in his heart.

This hatred is the anger towards this world full of injustice and the hatred towards those ignorant people who blindly believe in God.

What a strong, pure hatred.

Mephisto hid in a dark corner, staring at David greedily, with a strange and excited light flashing in his eyes, as if a miser saw a priceless rare treasure.

【His soul is so worth collecting. 】

Mephisto thought to himself.

But there was another, even stronger emotion in his heart, which was the desire to see his "old friend" in trouble.

When David stood up, a black sword suddenly appeared in his hand out of thin air.

This sword exudes an icy and evil aura, as if it came from an endless dark abyss, and contains a terrifying power.

The moment David held the sword, a wonderful feeling came over him, and he inexplicably knew the origin of the sword.

"This sword, capable of burying gods, is indeed suitable for me."

David muttered to himself, a cold yet confident smile slowly appearing on his lips.

His eyes became sharper and full of confidence.

The air around them seemed to grow heavier with the sword's presence, and an invisible pressure enveloped the area. Small animals foraging nearby, keenly sensing this powerful and sinister force, fled in panic.

"come out!"

David tightly grasped the Black Death Sword in his hand, his knuckles turning slightly white due to the force, and the tip of the sword was like a cold light, pointing straight in a direction not far away.

He could clearly feel that there was a mysterious and powerful aura lurking there, like a bomb that could explode at any time, making all his nerves tense.

"Oh!"

With a slightly surprised yet expected cry, Mephisto slowly emerged from the void.

There was a faint smile on his face, as if he was not at all surprised that David had noticed his presence.

"you caught me."

Mephisto's voice is deep and magnetic.

"who are you?"

David did not relax at all because of the appearance of Mephisto.

"Allow me to introduce myself, Mephisto."

Mephisto took off his hat gracefully, bent slightly and saluted. His posture showed his gentlemanly demeanor, as if he was attending an elegant ball.

"devil?"

David's pupils shrank suddenly when he heard this name that represents evil and darkness in human poetry, the Bible, and various oil paintings.

"Yes."

"What do you want to do?"

"Don't be so nervous, young man."

Mephisto waved his hand lightly and casually, signaling David to relax.

"I have no ill will towards you. On the contrary, I admire you very much."

"Appreciate me?" David frowned, his face full of doubt. "A devil would appreciate me? I won't believe that easily."

"Haha, you are really smart, David."

Mephisto laughed.

"But I truly admire your courage and determination, as well as the hatred in your heart that's as strong as fire. You know, these are exactly what I need."

"What do you need?" David's heart suddenly tightened, as if an invisible hand was grasping his heart. He was keenly aware that Mephisto must have an ulterior motive.

"What do you want from me? Just tell me!"

"I want to make you a deal, David."

Mephisto took a few steps forward.

"You now possess this incredibly powerful Black Death Sword, fully capable of changing the world. And I can help you realize your wish. In exchange, you only need to do a small favor for me at the appropriate time. This shouldn't be a difficult task for you, right?"
