The world doesn't need succubi to save it.

Fresh blood slid from the corner of his lips, but compared to the previous few drops, this time the blood almost formed a continuous line.

Just as the sages had predicted, the Stargazer did indeed pay a price for displaying such power.

However, she did not place the burden of that cost on Ning Feng, but instead shifted it all onto herself.

She is not a god, and she doesn't like others to bear such a price.

"She was beside him, and even bowed her head to him..."

The stargazer was somewhat confused by this development, but she understood the prophet.

So I felt relieved and stopped thinking about the specific reasons.

He was the last prophet, so even if something so incomprehensible happened... it makes sense.

However, compared to the complicated relationship between them, stargazers are more concerned about something else.

The gaze fell upon Ning Feng, who was receiving congratulations from everyone. The stargazer murmured to himself:

"Could the Prophet be the Demon King?"

Are you the demon king who will bring about the end of the gods?

After thinking for a moment, a bitter smile appeared on her lips, and she shook her head.

"Whether it is or not, what does it have to do with me? I probably won't live to see that day come."

decay.

The decay and decay emanating from her body foreshadowed her future.

come down.

She will eventually fall, and that future is not far off.

She turned her head and looked at the sea of ​​clouds, watching the seemingly unchanging yet never-ending white waves.

The stargazer slowly closed her eyes, leaning back as if it had been a long time since she had done so, and murmured:

"I've found him. I've fulfilled my final promise to you. I don't need to try anymore, right?"

In fact, she knew the answer to that question.

"Not good enough, not quite there yet..."

The appearance of both primordial demons and primordial angels suggests that the resurgence of the gods is imminent.

"That day is coming soon, but the children are still too weak; they need more time."

Suddenly a smile appeared on the stargazer's face—a gentle smile that showed no fear whatsoever.

"Protecting children's future is the responsibility of adults... I remember you saying that."

"President."

……

……

Shirin felt like she was having a dream.

A bizarre dreamscape made of chaos.

In her dreams, she experiences similar yet different lives.

She experiences it again and again, but she always dies, the only difference being the time and method of death.

The only thing they all had in common was that there was always the same person by their side.

Throughout his life, his appearance has changed constantly, but the only thing that remains unchanged is the way he looks at himself.

他 说:

"I promised you, I would walk with you to the end."

No matter the world or the life he led, he had said this before, and he had never broken his promise.

It was very touching, but it was all just a dream.

As she gradually regained consciousness, Shirin slowly forgot those fragments of memory.

Finally, after forgetting everything once again, Shirin felt as if she had woken up.

I didn't feel uncomfortable at all; it felt like I was lying in a comforting, warm embrace.

"Uh-huh?"

Am I awake?

I felt that my posture was wrong; it seemed that I wasn't lying down, but sitting in an uncomfortable chair.

Where am I?

Is Ning Feng out of danger? Why did he leave me here?

Struggling to lift her eyelids, Shirley murmured sleepily:

"What's wrong... uh!?"

Her slightly open eyes widened, and Xilin felt herself become much more awake in an instant.

Because when Shirin woke up, she saw the figure sitting next to her...

That person was not Ning Feng!

who!

?

The stargazer turned his head, looked at the legendary elf who was in a daze, and then at the nominal distribution of the Bincheng branch, and slowly nodded:

"I'm so glad to finally meet you."

Who are you?

?

Blinking, Shirin tried to think through the current situation with her chaotic mind.

Then, she chose to close her eyes.

This must be a dream, right?

Uh-huh!

It must be a dream!

Chapter 253 What I Really Want to Watch Over

Goodnight, world.

I'm going back to sleep.

After you wake up, you'll see Ning Feng.

Instead of meeting a strange woman who looks somewhat familiar...

"...Huh?"

Just as Shirin was about to fall asleep, she suddenly noticed something was wrong.

familiar?

This strange feeling caused Shirin's escapist tendencies to waver.

That's a bit strange.

As her consciousness gradually returned, Shirin could feel the gaze directed at her even with her eyes closed within her own domain.

Warm, gentle, and kind, yet there's a slight sense of distance, like an elder looking at an unfamiliar child.

This feeling...

This strange feeling left Xilin unsure of what to do or whether she should continue sleeping at this moment.

She wanted to open her eyes, but was afraid of seeing something terrible happen.

As Shirin struggled with whether to continue running away, she heard a calm voice.

His voice was neither hurried nor slow, and his tone sounded very gentle, but his manner was unusually distant.

she says:

"Bincheng Branch Manager, I have a few questions I'd like to ask you regarding your resignation..."

???

Resignation letter?

What resignation letter?!

While still pondering, Shirin suddenly opened her eyes and stared blankly at the stargazer in front of her in disbelief.

"You, you, you, you..."

Within the Watchers' organizational structure, the branch leaders stationed in various divisions are not considered minor figures.

To some extent, they are all guarding a spatial node. Even if some of them are not particularly strong, they are still nominally upper-level personnel.

As a branch leader with legendary strength, Shirin is definitely a high-ranking member of the Watchers' organization, even if she is not at the highest level.

By conventional standards, she is even qualified, or even obligated, to participate in many important decisions.

But she didn't.

It wasn't because she was ostracized by anyone, but because Shirin genuinely wasn't interested in such things.

Xilin took the initiative to choose the most enjoyable and relaxing way for her—staying at home and slacking off.

What could be better than being a salted fish?

If I had to say, there are some.

For example, paid time off to slack off!

In the pleasant climate of Bincheng, the unruly Xilin successfully transformed into a carefree and relaxed person.
