As the savior, I only want to play single-player games.

“Yotsuya Miko, do you know what awakening is? When evil spirits become Sequence 9 gods, the gods call it awakening.”

"After experiencing endless and boundless suffering, I finally broke free from my cocoon and awakened to my true self. I believe that the gods of the ascetic sects can understand my feelings."

"One could have endured the darkness, but had not seen the light..."

"But I am not grateful to you at all. On the contrary, I hate you because you made me experience so much pain."

Even Miko was hearing Kuro Miko reveal her true feelings for the first time, no wonder she had always been so hostile towards her.

It turns out that he believed her suffering was caused by him.

Seeing that Zi didn't defend herself, and that explaining was pointless, she remained silent for a while. "So, you think that after we merge, instead of our personalities complementing each other, it's a process of devouring each other's consciousness?"

"Yes!" Kuroko readily admitted this fact.

"I want to become the strongest one, I want to be above all the gods. What I seek is completely different from what you seek," Kuromiko sneered. This idea was reflected in many ways, such as her feeling that there was no need to protect Chiba, since humanity hadn't gone extinct.

Miko's relatives, friends, classmates, and teachers have no connection to her; they are merely a network of relationships that Miko maintains.

Jianzi tilted her head, realizing that the problem was complicated. Rather than saying that the two of them, although they came from the same source, at least at the level of the laws of life, were indeed the same life, their current development was more like that of conjoined twins.

There was no need for Kuroko to help her.

"Then put it another way, promise me, I can give you a fair chance to fight."

Kuroko laughed freely, "You think you're my match?"

According to divine intervention, she became a Sequence 9 before she even reached Sequence 9.

She was far ahead, whether in experience, skill, or willpower; she was far superior.

Because she cares about so few things, and has almost no attachments.

But the difference is different.

"How do you know I'm no match for you?" Miko looked at Kuro Miko strangely. Although she was quite annoyed by Kuro Miko, she didn't actually regard her as a mortal enemy and had always been quite confident.

It wasn't until she became Sequence 7 that she finally realized why her mindset had remained so stable.

Kuroko realized that she wasn't bluffing, and she became somewhat suspicious.

"Sense it again?" Jianzi pointed to his head.

Almost instantly, Kuroko's expression changed drastically; her mental illusion vanished and returned to her body.

"No! There's nothing left..."

The spiritual world, the sea of ​​the subconscious, the world of memories, the world of emotions...

She frantically traversed different mental realms at lightning speed, but the more she searched, the more panic and unease gripped her heart.

Where has our spiritual treasure gone?!

It was completely undetectable, as if it had vanished into thin air without leaving any trace.

"I've hidden it, hidden it somewhere you'll never find it," came Miko's voice.

Although it cannot be used, the realm of the mind is extremely idealistic. There is no need to transfer it; only the world needs to be transferred, which can easily create an effect similar to being trapped in a maze.

Kuroko's face was extremely gloomy, and her eyes kept flashing.

"Give it back to me!" She was like a dragon whose scales had been touched, but instead of raging, she was extremely calm, which made her even more terrifying.

Seeing that Zi said calmly, "Using their own methods against them, didn't you also hide its existence from me before?"

"you wanna die!"

Jian Zi said, "You probably don't need it much anymore. After all, at this stage, it can only improve your understanding of spiritual masters and establish a mental link with Youlia. But these functions are dispensable and don't really help you. Why are you still so concerned about it?"

"It has nothing to do with you!"

"Could it be that you weren't using it to sneak away, but rather as a vessel for your emotions? You're different from Yuria. Yuria returned to the Abyss after becoming a demon's familiar, while you were a newborn consciousness born in the Abyss, a forbidden land for all intelligent life. You suffered terribly there, perceiving only madness and chaos. At that time, you shared my memories, but you couldn't empathize. In extreme pain, you could only use other things to distract yourself..."

"For example, you've fallen in love with Kagura and consider spiritual treasures the most important thing. You use these things to fill the void in your heart, and they become the pillars of your soul..."

"So what if it is!" Kuroko sneered; she had never hidden her true feelings.

Jian Zi said, "Although you were in a sorry state when you were looking for the spiritual treasure, you're quite cool when you're being stubborn now!"

"What do you think these words can affect me? What a joke! I've experienced the deepest despair," Kuroko said fiercely.

Seeing the faint smile in Jianzi's words, one could sense the underlying ferocity beneath the bluster.

It feels so good that this guy finally got his comeuppance.

“It’s mine, do you understand? You were just a thief before, climbing over the wall and living here so brazenly, using all sorts of furniture, thinking you could use it however you wanted. But you forgot that when the owner comes back, you’ll go back to being a thief. But I’m magnanimous and won’t hold it against you.”

Kuroko finally couldn't hold back any longer and shouted, "Why! I'm also Yotsuya Miko!"

She was not convinced. She had more potential and was stronger than Jianzi, so why did this happen?

“Do you really want me to tell you?” Miko sighed. “It’s simple. Because it was bound to me from the very beginning. Although I don’t think this thing belongs to me, there’s no doubt that it’s under my control now. Haven’t you noticed that Tendou Kagura has never cared about you…”

The truth is cruel.

It pierced my heart with a bloody wound.

Kuroko's face turned pale, and after a struggle in her eyes, she said coldly, "Is that all you have to say? So what? I can still defeat you without it."

Beautiful women are only fit to be possessed by the strong, and treasures belong to the virtuous.

She never expected things to go smoothly from the start.

Now, she has found a way to take over the body.

She had tried every means to possess the body, but all her methods were rendered useless. Sequence 9 and Sequence 8 could not allow her to devour Jianzi's main consciousness without any damage.

But Sequence 7 is different; this stage can create mental mines that obliterate the self.

She could try to plant a hidden bomb, try to blow up Yotsuya Miko's mind, and extinguish her spirit!

Although this process will be difficult, will be noticed, and will take a long time to set up, Yotsuya Miko can also destroy her memories.

But she is stronger than Yotsuya Miko. She comes from the abyss, she is more familiar with these methods, and she cares about fewer things, only needing to protect the memories and emotions she values.

She's definitely going to be the winner!

“No, you have no chance.” Yotsuya Miko sighed softly. “Once I become Sequence 7, you will never have another chance. When the Spiritual Treasure is on my side, I will be invincible. No matter what method you use, you will never be able to defeat me.”

As Yotsuya Miko spoke, Kuromiko felt as if her ever-changing inner world had suddenly come to a standstill, as if a pause button had been pressed.

However, the Black Mirror can still think, which comes from the unique basic ability of a spiritualist: accelerated thinking and reaction speed that is hundreds or thousands of times greater than that of an ordinary person.

She realized that time had not stopped in this world, but rather it had been suppressed, as if petrified. Although she could think, she could not mobilize any mental power.

After an unknown amount of time, the still world began to flow.

Jian Zi said, "Do you understand now? Although I will also be suppressed and unable to use my mental power, the control is on my side. If I were to be even more ruthless, I could strip away our sense of time, but in that case, we could only remain in a stalemate until the world is destroyed and all things perish."

Kuroko: "..."

Her face was so dark it looked like it was about to drip water.

“If you agree, I promise you I won’t use the Spiritual Treasure when you advance to Sequence 6,” Jianzi continued.

"it is good……"

"Should we make an oath or sign a waiver of life or death?" Jianzi asked again. Spiritualists have the binding power of oaths. For example, they can plant hidden mines. If the subject fails to fulfill their obligations, the hidden mines will automatically explode, resulting in anything from memory loss to the complete annihilation of the soul.

Kuroko said wearily, "I believe you."

Jian Zi chuckled softly, "How many times have we teamed up now?"

Kuroko seemed somewhat dejected.

"the third time……"

The first time was against Yamata no Orochi's clone, the second time was against Yamata no Orochi, and now it's the third time...

This is the last time.

Despite her complete confidence in victory, for some reason, she felt a sense of awe towards Yotsuya Miko, a person she had always looked down upon.

There aren't many people she can respect.

……

The Doomsday Knight is like a corner of a curtain, behind which lies boundless death, where the lives of the vast majority of humans are reduced to nothing. This is the effect of divine magic, which, in the eyes of ordinary people, is a destiny ordained by fate.

Millions, tens of millions, hundreds of millions...

Finally, he arrived in Chiba.

"Doomsday Knight, spare this city." A spiritual voice echoed, traveling from the ground to a height of five thousand meters, and was sensed by the Doomsday Knight.

He stood high above, imposing and awe-inspiring, the veil of death seeming to transform into a cloak.

This is the strongest white horse knight, wielding a bow and arrow, and bearing many divine names such as Dawn Star, Satan, and Plague Knight.

This city of hundreds of thousands of people would have been considered a large city a thousand years ago.

However, it is not considered very developed in modern times.

The white horseman said nothing, and the horse's hooves continued, rumbling across the sky, bringing humanity the deepest despair.

Along his journey, he encountered many powerful beings and gods who sought to protect mortals.

The number of these powerful individuals to protect is small and can be ignored.

Even the organization called the Human Union, under God's instruction, he deliberately held back and did not take the lives of its members.

This absolutely does not include this place.

This is a massive purge of humanity!

"Then I'll have to offend you." Yotsuya Miko sighed softly. If she had the strength of a Sequence 5, the Doomsday Knight would definitely be willing to give her face.

Unfortunately, she didn't.

Then we'll have to borrow the spiritual treasure!

The sky was overcast with dark clouds, and a light drizzle fell, but at that moment an unimaginable pressure spread throughout the heavens and earth. In an instant, all the raindrops froze in mid-air, as if solidified.

boom!!

With a tremendous tremor, all the rain was reversed, the dark clouds were torn apart, and everyone in the city felt a violent surge like a vast ocean!

The waves crashed against the shore!
