"Although I really want to tell her that ordinary Imperial Arms can't do this, it's a good thing to give her a goal to strive for."
Gozchi also heard Tsukushi's words. After glancing at the two of them, he turned his gaze back to the deep crater that had been blasted out.
"The most important thing now is who will win. If even the Empire's strongest general, Esdeath, can't deal with that woman, the consequences could be really troublesome."
In this era, a top-tier powerhouse possesses a deterrent force no less than that of a nuclear bomb. The mere existence of Esdeath has significantly reduced the pressure faced by the Empire. However, the worst-case scenario would be if someone of this caliber were to stand against the Empire.
At this moment, the situation inside the tomb has changed...
The light, holy and warm, shone on the tomb that had been devastated. Lin Yu and Esdeath looked at the source of the light with some surprise.
"I never thought I'd still be lucid for a day."
The gentle, soothing voice was heartwarming, and the one radiating soft light was none other than Duoyu, who had previously subdued Lin Yu!
Her smooth, pure white hair cascaded down her back. The source of the light was not so much the Fallen Feather herself, but rather the four pairs of pure white wings behind her that had shed their black color!
Because the wings were pure white and without any impurities, the bright red stains on them were particularly glaring, and the sight of the fallen feathers and scarred feathers was heartbreaking.
"wide awake?"
Lin Yu frowned slightly. He could sense that the person in front of him had undergone a completely different change, but out of caution, he would not easily believe what the other party said.
"I'm sorry for the trouble I caused you before. I'll be gone soon. If you can, could you please listen to me?"
'Fallen Feather's' voice was very soft and gentle, and her speech was slow, but it was so soft that one couldn't bear to interrupt her. Moreover, Lin Yu could feel that Fallen Feather's power was constantly dissipating. He didn't understand why, but it was true that she would disappear from this world completely soon, just as she said. Therefore, while remaining vigilant, Lin Yu didn't mind her saying a few more words.
"I was originally an eight-winged angel serving the gods in the heavens. As you can probably guess, the god I speak of is merely a false god within this world, yet she possesses incredible power—a power called creation..."
In fact, Gaia and Alaya had told him about the definition of gods before they left. In the vast World Sea, there are countless worlds. It is not surprising that some beings with divine attributes are born in these worlds. However, the gods in these worlds are completely unaware that there is a World Sea outside their worlds that contains all worlds. Even if they learn of the existence of the World Sea through some channel, they may not be able to enter the World Sea by their own power until the day their world is destroyed.
Such a god is what Fallen Feather calls a false god. He possesses certain divine powers but can only be considered a fake. Only a god who enters the World Sea by himself can be considered a true god!
"The God I serve was the first and only life born in the world. Perhaps her long loneliness made her want more of her kind to accompany her, and so creation began."
As Duoyu spoke, her face was serene, completely devoid of the ferocity and allure she had displayed earlier.
"On the first day, God created beings similar to her life form, such as angels like me. However, she found that the existence of angels was too much of a burden on the world, and the world simply could not support too many angels. So, starting from the second day, she began to create all things in the world whose life level was lower than that of angels."
Fallen Feather's body began to become transparent, and the light enveloping the tomb seemed to be the last glimmer of light emitted after she had exhausted her life force.
"In just seven days, God completed the creation of the world, and we, whose life level is higher than that of ordinary life, naturally became the beings who serve God."
"God loves this world and uses her power to care for all things. But because of this, she has consumed too much of her power, to the point that even we, the first angels created, possess power surpassing that of God. But she is our mother, and we protect her with utmost care, until one day..."
Fallen Feather's calm and gentle voice turned sorrowful: "God is dead..."
"Killed by my own hands."
"ridiculous."
Esdeath interrupted Falluyu, raising her chin and looking down at her condescendingly.
"You keep saying you love and respect the god you speak of, yet you killed her with your own hands. You wouldn't be suggesting that the black mist controlled you, would you?"
Duoyu was clearly taken aback for a moment, then nodded bitterly.
"There is nothing in my world that can threaten angels. Even ordinary mortals rarely fight. Therefore, although I have great power, I don't know how to use it. So when I was ambushed, I could only watch helplessly as I was eroded."
The voice of the Fallen Feather was full of helplessness, but there was not a trace of regret in it. Lin Yu could not imagine what a world without any fighting would be like. However, none of that mattered. What mattered was what the Fallen Feather was about to say.
"Although I lost control of my body, my consciousness remained clear. Perhaps because I was the first life created by God, I carried some of God's power. The black mist could not extinguish my consciousness, but I could not take back my body either. So I could only watch helplessly as I slaughtered all my fellow beings, and even God was not spared in the end."
Duoyu picked up the book she had been holding to her chest, and her fingers, which had become transparent, gently stroked the cover of the book.
"Not long after I killed the god, someone came and took me away. He gave me a new identity, which is what you call the agent."
Having gotten no useful information so far, Lin Yu began to frown. Whether Duoyu's experience was true or not was another matter, and neither he nor Esdeath were people who liked listening to stories.
"I believe you can guess that the person who took me away was the real god, and I felt the same power in him as the black mist that was eroding my body!"
"Was it the power of that god that corrupted you and caused all of this to happen?"
Lin Yu immediately thought that it was a god who used his power to control the Fallen Feather, but to his surprise, the Fallen Feather silently shook its head.
"The god who took me away is known for his power, but he is not good at manipulation at all."
Lin Yu was just about to open his mouth to refute, after all, the power of gods was beyond the comprehension of mortals like them. Even if they were not good at it, it did not mean they could not do it. After all, the level of gods was too high. Gaia had once told Lin Yu with absolute certainty that beings who had not yet transcended the world could never defeat the weakest god. This was an insurmountable barrier!
It would be incredibly easy for a god with infinite life and infinite time to manipulate a mortal. That was what Lin Yu thought, and he was about to say it. However, before he could speak, a sentence from Duo Yu made his eyes widen.
"Moreover, I have felt that power in every true god I have ever met!"
"What did you say?!"
In his emotional state, Lin Yu reached out to grab Duo Yu, but his hand passed right through Duo Yu's body.
"Whether what I said is true or false, I believe you can judge for yourself. Having said all that, I only have one last request."
Duoyu held her hands to her chest, and a small point of light began to shine brightly.
"This is the power that God left behind when He first created me, and it is also the last trace of God's existence. I hope it can help you."
As Duoyu extended her hand, the light spot seemed to possess a spirit and floated towards Lin Yu. Lin Yu hesitated for a moment subconsciously. After all, the two were still enemies in terms of their positions. Trusting the enemy too easily would inevitably lead to unimaginable consequences. However, this time, Lin Yu subconsciously reached out and caught the light spot that floated towards him.
Ding!
A light and cheerful voice seemed to linger in her ears. The light spot disappeared the moment it touched Lin Yu's finger. Seeing this, Duo Yu smiled with satisfaction.
"May you end this tragedy in the future..."
Finally, she left behind a heartfelt hope before her body turned into phosphorescence and vanished into this unfamiliar world. The tomb, which had been shrouded in soft white light, also dimmed. Lin Yu and Esdeath exchanged glances, unsure whether what she said last was true or false.
……
"Oh, I wish my sister could come back with me."
After the fallen feathers dissipated, Lin Yu and Esdeath returned to the ground together, just in time to run into Gozchi and his group who were preparing to return to the tomb. They seemed to be planning to go down and help.
As for what happened next, it was simple. The Fallen Feather disappeared, and the Gravekeeper was completely wiped out. This mission was naturally completed. The cleanup was left to Bill. The assassination squad still had other missions to complete. After reuniting with Esdeath, Lin Yu did not plan to stay with the assassination squad any longer. He still had many things to do. He had come here to let Kurohime meet his sister.
The key is.
Lin Yu looked at his fingers. The point of light that the Fallen Feather had entrusted to him before it dissipated vanished without a trace after touching him. Lin Yu felt nothing unusual at all and didn't know whether the point of light was the Fallen Feather's final conspiracy or simply a way to continue existing in a special form by entrusting the power of the gods to him.
"It must be genuine."
Recalling the last smile of the Fallen Feather, Lin Yu really couldn't connect it with a conspiracy; he was willing to trust his intuition.
"But what use is such a tiny bit of power?"
Lin Yu tossed and turned on the bed, even causing Hei Tong to mutter incessantly.
"Brother, brother, shall we go find sister again?"
Lin Yu was pondering a problem when he heard this, and his lips twitched immediately.
"Didn't we just get back?"
Lin Yu put the issue of the light spot aside, since he couldn't figure it out anyway; the real headache was this little girl.
"But I miss my sister."
Well, Lin Yu only just remembered that these two sisters seemed to have some lesbian feelings in this real world. Normal sisters, no matter how good their relationship is, wouldn't be so eager to see each other after only being apart for a short time, right?
"Then work hard to become stronger! If Kurome is strong enough, I'll take you to find Akame!"
Although Lin Yu only wanted to fool this hot-headed girl, Hei Tong obviously took it seriously and excitedly hugged Lin Yu's arm.
"It's a deal then! You have to take me to find my sister!"
"Let's talk about it when you get stronger! Also! Don't hug me so tightly, your ribs are digging into me!"
Although Kuroko is now considered a young girl, her flat chest shows no signs of development, and it actually hurts a little when she hugs me tightly...
[Note that the creation story described above is entirely fictional and has absolutely no relation to Western mythology. Don't take it too seriously.]
261. Confess your feelings? Confess your feelings! [Two-in-one]
“Miss Najeta, you are so beautiful, I hope you will give up your position as general and become my wife.”
Inside the palace, a handsome man knelt on one knee before Najenda, making no attempt to hide his affection.
However, faced with such a direct marriage proposal, Najenda calmly looked at the man of noble status and waved her hand dismissively.
"Sorry, that's impossible."
Najeta's expression remained unchanged. She showed neither shyness nor surprise at the sudden proposal, nor did she show any disgust or disdain. It was as if the man's proposal was nothing more than an insignificant matter to her.
"Why? I am royalty! Marry me and you'll enjoy a lifetime of wealth and luxury!"
The man looked incredulous. He had never imagined that anyone in this empire would refuse his marriage proposal, even if that person was one of the empire's youngest generals.
"I'm sorry because I have other things I have to do."
Najenda moved her feet, bypassed the man blocking her way, and continued on her way. She had important business to attend to at the palace. To her, that royal member was just an insignificant passerby. If it weren't for the sudden marriage proposal today, she would have almost forgotten his name.
"How could this be..."
The royal, dejected after being rejected, collapsed to the ground. He had thought that the only person in the empire who could refuse him was the incredibly powerful General Esdeath, but he never expected that even the more gentle General Najenda would reject him.
"Tsk tsk, it's rare to hear such explosive news on a trip into the palace."
Before Najenda had gone far, a familiar voice rang out beside her, and Najenda was slightly taken aback when she looked at the two people in front of her.
"General Esdeath, and Lin Yu, it's been a long time."
Although Najenda and Esdeath are colleagues, they are both very capable Imperial generals who are often away on missions, so they rarely meet.
"Long time no see. I didn't expect General Najenda to be so charming. Even members of the royal family are captivated."
Esdeath was in a good mood, and naturally, she couldn't resist making a few jokes after accidentally stumbling upon such an interesting event.
"However, I'm more interested in what General Najenda meant by 'having to do something'."
Although she had a smile on her lips, Esdeath's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, instantly making Najenda's expression unnatural.
"Well, I guess that was just a casual excuse, right, General Najenda?"
Lin Yu interrupted Esdeath with a chuckle, and the tense atmosphere suddenly eased. Esdeath also withdrew her sharp gaze and looked at Lin Yu with amusement.
"Ah, um, I guess so."
Najeta's eyes darted around, and she gave a forced smile in response.
"His Majesty has summoned us; let's hurry over."
As he spoke, he quickened his pace and walked deeper into the palace.
