The gods descend into reality

So why did you suddenly become so domineering when you were just afraid of me?

"I hate people who act young even when they're old. Yukari Yakumo from Gensokyo is one of them. She's clearly that old, but she still claims to be seventeen. Doesn't she have any idea how old she is?"

Nero, instead of moving forward, started complaining.

"Your Majesty, please be careful with your words."

Xiao Se felt it necessary to remind Nero.

“Player, we’re all on the same side, what’s wrong with speaking your mind? Besides, that old woman isn’t here right now. You’re not thinking of calling her over, are you?” Nero raised the Primal Flame in his hand with a suspicious look on his face.

I remember when I sang "The Most Dazzling Oriental Style" at my own concert, the musician tricked me.

"You're very suspicious, player!"

"Ahem, Nero, how could I be that kind of person? No matter what, you are the most important person in my heart."

Driven by a strong will to survive, Xiao Se made the right choice.

Xiaoya picked up some snacks and ate them while looking at the group of people. Suddenly, she felt an urge to unleash her underworld.

"Mmm, I think so too."

Nero's ahoge (cowlick) kept bobbing, clearly indicating that he was quite satisfied with Xiao Se's statement.

"Hmm~ Don't think I don't know, that bba Yakumo Yukari is just trying to seduce the musician. How can a mere old woman compare to me?"

As he spoke, Nero puffed out his chest.

"Yes, yes, Nero is the best."

Xiao Se echoed.

"But speaking of purple, does everyone associated with purple tend to act young?" Nero, instead of forcing Conan to stop, chatted with Xiao Se.

Anyway, I didn't really intend to kill Conan, I just wanted to scare this pretentious little brat.

I am a heroic spirit, the embodiment of a hero after death, not a demon king who can kill people at will—

Wait a minute, it seems like heroes do that all the time too.

"Your Majesty, I think you need to tone it down a bit," Xiao Se advised.

"Hmm? What's there to restrain? Look at Yakumo Yukari, she's so old and always pretends to be young." Nero raised her hand and counted, then continued speaking before Xiao Se could finish, "And the world where Yu is."

That purple-haired, dual-wielding old woman, hahahahaha, there really is such a young old woman in the world, it's hilarious!

Nero clutched his stomach and laughed loudly, clearly having thought of some jokes.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

The two consecutive sounds finally brought Nero back to his reverie, which was filled with his own jokes.

"What is it, player?"

"The gun on your head looks really cool."

"Huh?"

Nero looked at Xiao Se with some confusion. The musician was acting strangely today. Wasn't he always very cooperative with her? And where did the gun on Yu's head come from? Yu only had a cowlick on his head!

"I also think the gun on your head looks really cool."

An unfamiliar female voice came from behind.

In an instant, Nero felt himself covered in cold sweat.

Could my luck be that bad?!

Chapter 161 Nero: It's not my fault, it's all Conan's fault (taking a day off)

"I think I just heard someone call out 'Young and beautiful Scáthach'?"

Her long, flowing purple hair swayed in the wind, and her wine-red eyes held an aura of deathly stillness. Coupled with her signature bodysuit and two bright red spears, it was obvious who she was.

Scáthach!

He resides in the Shadow Kingdom, one of the Celtic wonderlands, and is considered the king of the underworld, a realm that accepts the dead and the souls of the dead.

Scáthach is powerful.

If a single spear strike reaches a state of perfection, even killing a god can be accomplished in the blink of an eye.

As the queen of the Land of Shadows, she not only possesses unparalleled marksmanship but also ancient rune magic. She has killed countless undead, humans, and gods, and because of this, she is cursed throughout her life, unable to die.

Cú Chulainn was Scáthach's apprentice whom she trained to kill herself.

At this moment, Scáthach held her twin pistols, a charming smile on her face, looking at Nero with the innocent and harmless demeanor of a friendly older sister.

Nero stared blankly at Scáthach in front of him.

The tuft of hair on its head was trembling incessantly, clearly indicating that it was extremely flustered.

"Hmm~ It's just my imagination."

Nero replied instinctively.

"Whoosh~"

A whooshing sound accompanied a flash of red light, blooming like a venomous snake before Nero.

Nero's figure retreated instantly, and several whooshing sounds echoed through the air at that moment.

Do you want to fight?

Nero deftly dodged the attack, drew the Primal Flame, and glared at Scáthach with an unfriendly expression. Xiao Se also glared at Scáthach with an unfriendly expression at the same time. In the void, the sword shadow of Yagyu and the aura of Athena locked onto Scáthach at the same moment.

At this moment, apart from the two monsters who were still engrossed in watching TV, the alert level was at its highest.

"What do you mean?"

Xiao Se asked with an unfriendly expression.

"Well, I just wanted to see if you were qualified to speak to me. This Roman emperor seems to have gotten quite strong."

Holding the two spears casually in her hands, Scáthach seemed completely unconcerned even with so many people watching her.

Perhaps it wasn't that she didn't care; she was simply seeking death. If someone could kill her, that person would actually thank them sincerely.

Take a step.

The next instant opened, and Nero's figure was moved onto Xiao Se's shoulder.

"Don't worry, there are just a few things I need to say."

The two crimson spears in his hands disappeared, and he looked harmless, only glancing at Xiao Se a couple more times.

"The power to connect to the source is rare. If you become stronger, you might be able to kill me."

Looking at Xiao Se, Scáthach spoke earnestly, but without much hope. Seeing that Xiao Se and the others did not seem to have let their guard down, Scáthach continued to speak.

"I once saw another power that connects to the Root in the Land of Shadows through my clairvoyance. It is said to be able to kill any living god. However, I myself am in a state of neither life nor death."

At this point, Scáthach sighed.

An immortal body and eternal life.

This is something many people dream of, but for me it feels like a curse.

It makes it so that even the thought of dying is no longer an option for me.

There are people who can defeat themselves, even in the world they came into.

In his perception, the swordsman standing at the top with a blank expression could defeat him, but he did not sense any danger from him. In other words, the swordsman could defeat him but could not kill him.

The reason I told Xiao Se all this was simply to inform the people here.

You can't kill me, so you don't need to be so wary of yourself.

"Can this Roman emperor tell me where this is?"

Scáthach asked with a smile, like a friendly older sister next door.

If it weren't for witnessing her previous unwavering attack on Nero, probably no one would have connected this beautiful girl with the ruthless person she once was.

"Hmph, you attacked me before, I won't answer you!"

Nero turned his head to the side, his ahoge (cowlick) shaking unhappily, his face full of displeasure.

If it weren't for the fact that this BBA in front of me was too overpowered, I would definitely have divided her into eight pieces!

"Oh, Nero, you're being naughty!"

The dangerous smile on his face sent a chill down Nero's spine.

"Yeah, I'm just as curious as this lady about where we are. But where is this lady from?" Conan asked Scáthach with wide eyes, trying to look cute.

The giant and the woman in red were clearly in cahoots. They had just tried to kill him, so naturally they wanted to find a powerful figure to cling to now!

"I will explain these things to you, Master, later, but Nero, you seem to be getting more and more reckless."

Xiao Se glanced at Nero on his shoulder and said speechlessly.

Although Scáthach did go a bit too far just now, shouldn't she have just bowed her head and admitted her mistake, pretending nothing had happened, according to the normal procedure?

This is what happened when we were discussing Purple Mom's dark history.

"Ugh~ I feel a mysterious force interfering with me. Player, you must believe me. I am definitely not the kind of person who would do something reckless."

Nero said in a very serious tone.

The next moment, Nero looked at Conan.

"Hmm hmm, I've got it! It must be Conan. Conan's death aura is at work!"

Nero exclaimed as if he had discovered a new continent.

Xiao Se immediately looked at Conan, a hint of suspicion on his face.

"What you're saying seems to make sense. If it weren't for Nero, an ordinary person would definitely be dead. This would be another murder case!"

Conan Edogawa...

"Although I don't understand what you're talking about, this child seems quite unusual, interesting enough to escape my senses."

Scáthach looked at Ko with great interest.

"Wait, wait, big brother and big sister, I think you have some misunderstanding about me. I'm just a primary school student, I'm just an ordinary person!" Conan said speechlessly.
