Knight Asylum

【God】【Angel】

This wasn't the first time Reid had heard these words.

Red had seen angels, probably the most powerful angel, but Red had never seen that God.

But whether it was Promise or Mitsuo Hongo, they were all conveying a message to Red.

[God loves mankind, but only mankind. He does not love a certain person, let alone everyone.]

Destruction can happen at any time.

"If this flaw is not removed, God's cleansing may come at any time, but conversely, as long as the demonic genes in human genes can be eliminated."

“Humanity will be restored to its perfect form in God’s eyes. Humanity will once again receive God’s unreserved favor and usher in the true Sabbath.”

U raised his hand and pointed to his heart.

"My golden fruit is a necessity."

"This tone...don't tell me that all this was part of your plan," Reid hesitated for a moment, then slumped his shoulders and smiled bitterly.

"I have plenty of time."

The affirmative answer made Red smile bitterly.

"But your appearance was not what I expected." U raised his finger and pointed at Red. "I don't know what will happen next, but the key now is how to get Igarashi Genta back."

"I'm sorry to trouble you—"

Led by Igarashi Kazuki, the three Igarashi siblings bowed solemnly.

"Don't worry about it. You never expected anything like this, and reversion of your demon genes is not an option for you," U shook his head. "Regarding the exchange, I must emphasize one thing. Even if Bell gets my golden fruit, there is a great possibility that he will break his promise and not release Igarashi Genta."

Igarashi Kazuki was startled, but soon calmed down, "Because Bell is my father's demon. Before humans and demons are completely separated, Bell still needs my father."

"Yes, that's right. So, when the time comes, no matter what happens, you must stay calm," U emphasized. "You must endure until the Sabbath."

"This... I understand. I will endure it," Igarashi Kazuki nodded vigorously.

Kiryuu Sento frowned.

[No matter what happens]

"Okay, let's go contact Bell. We've waited too long, it's time to put an end to this," U leaned back and let out a long breath.

"I see--"

Igarashi Ikki took a few deep breaths and took out his cell phone from his arms. Under the gaze of Igarashi Daiji and Igarashi Sakura, he dialed a number.

"Beep-beep-beep-"

With a crisp sound, the phone was connected, and a low, magnetic voice that sounded like a card addict rang out.

"Ikki, have you decided yet?"

Although I knew that this was somewhat out of place with the atmosphere, I still couldn't hold back and complained in a low voice.

“It’s still a subwoofer.”

Kiryu Battle Rabbit rolled his eyes, raised his hand and flicked his fingers hard on Manjo Ryuga's forehead.

"I have decided. U's golden fruit... is for you! But you must also fulfill your promise--"

"I know, it's right there, Ikki... the place where you defeated me, proving that you are a devil, hehehe - you really are -"

Before Bell could finish his words, the call was rudely hung up, and the ones who pressed the end call button were Igarashi Daiji and Igarashi Sakura.

"Brother, let's go!"

"I see!"

Igarashi Ikki nodded very solemnly, then turned around and bent down towards U.

"Thank you!"

"Don't worry, it's only a matter of time," U shook his head and said to Red, "You'd better come along. If you don't show up, Bell will probably get suspicious."

"Okay - but, first of all, my patience has its limits, and my body may give in first," Red let out a breath, stood up and nodded.

U smiled subconsciously, "That's fine. You're not a monster after all."

Kiryu Battle Rabbit stood up, intending to follow, but just as he stood up, three more places lit up on the holographic map that tracked the undead beast's signals in real time.

"Three undead beasts? What a coincidence," Kiryuu Sento scratched his hair, "Let's split up."

"Let's go——"

After a brief assignment, Kiryu and Uzumaki, Banko Ryuga, and Daido Katsumi went to the locations of the three undead beasts respectively, while Red, U, and the Igarashi brothers and sisters went to "that place" mentioned by Bell.

Red originally thought that [that place] would be some eerie and scary place, but as Red expected, it was a scenic spot with beautiful mountains and rivers, very suitable for family travel.

After getting off the car, Igarashi Kazuki took the initiative to answer Red's questions.

"Actually, it happened when we were traveling together as kids. Bell attacked us, but I defeated him," Igarashi Ikki paused and added, "I and Weiss defeated him together."

"When you were a kid? You've worked hard," Red raised his hand and patted Igarashi Kazuki's shoulder, "So, did you choose this place on purpose? Does that guy Bell want revenge?"

"I don't know—" Igarashi Ikki held his forehead and sighed, "I never thought that Bell would make a comeback."

"It's okay, you can just pray for his soul to be reborn after the Sabbath," Red smiled brightly and gave a thumbs up.

"Can it really be done?"

A voice came from between the trees, and Igarashi Genta rubbed his neck and walked out of the shadows.

"On the Sabbath, humans and demons will be completely separated. Without the contract of sharing the same fate, why do you still think that the demons will help you?"

Igarashi Genta, or to be more precise, Bell laughed in a low voice.

"I will help, because we...are a family that wants each other to be happy. Bell, Weiss and the others are different from you."

Igarashi Ikki stood up straight and stared at Bell together with Igarashi Daiji and Igarashi Sakura. Behind them, the shadows of Whis, Mirage, and Laboon appeared.

Although their appearances are completely different, they are extremely harmonious.

"Family...? Tsk—"

Bell's right fingers began to tremble violently. Bell was startled and immediately raised his hand and pressed his right wrist hard.

"Junpei - give up. Without me, you are nothing. You can't resist me. Just wait here for the Sabbath."

Bell clenched his fist to suppress Igarashi Genta's resistance, and looked in the direction of the Igarashi siblings with a sneer.

"I don't understand. I just want the golden fruit of the first human ancestor."

U, who was standing behind the Igarashi siblings, exhaled and walked out. "Just like you wished, I'm here."

"Really? Then please come over here, you undead beast of mankind, a monster with a longer history than mankind."

U tilted his head, without any precautions, and walked straight towards Bell.

Suddenly, an ominous premonition struck Red. Just as he took out his belt, a hurricane fell.

"Feng Lin Huo Shan——"

"Have you forgotten, ancient monster—"

A hand passed through U's chest.

"You can already be killed."

Chapter 1122 [I will become the worst monster]

Immortality does not mean the inability to get tired or collapse.

【exhausted】

【despair】

【Bored】

【fear】

Self-destruction

【Hate】

【Killing】

Containers have their limits, and humans cannot carry emotions endlessly. Humans are best at two things: giving people hope and giving people despair.

Even steel will break after repeated bending, let alone the human spirit.

As long as time is long enough, anything can be done. After more than ten thousand years of repeated torture, the bad emotions have filled the container, and cracks can be seen everywhere. The original wish has long been suppressed to the bottom, and all colors have been covered up.

He had long since overcome despair and numbness, and his heart was dark and bottomless, with only absolute malice left.

If it collapses now, everything will be over.

[Cannot collapse, can not escape, must watch. 】

The only thing to be thankful for is that he is a bad card, very weak, without power, and will not harm humans in any way.

But this only luck ended there.

The golden fruit will turn his bad card into a joker.

I will be the worst monster

U opened his mouth and coughed up a mouthful of blood, then turned his head with difficulty, "How many years have we not seen each other, ancient king? What is your name now? Akaashi... hero?"

Akaashi Hero was stunned, a little surprised, "It's really an honor. You still remember what I look like."

"I remember what every human being looks like."

"Really? It's really hard work—"

The Akaashi hero pulled hard and an illusory golden fruit was pulled out. In front of him, U, with a big hole in his chest, staggered forward a few steps and fell heavily to the ground, inhuman green blood slowly overflowing.

"Ah~ I finally got the golden fruit of the first human ancestor—"

Before he finished speaking, a dazzling light flashed behind the Akaashi Hero, and Reid and the Igarashi siblings had already used their strongest forms to rush towards the Akaashi Hero.

"I will show you the power of the golden fruit, which is closest to the real thing."

The Akaashi Hero slowly grinned, and the golden fruit in his right hand, which was still stained with green blood, lit up with a dazzling light. In an instant, terrifying energy radiated out with the Akaashi Hero as the center. In just a moment, the Igarashi siblings were blown away, disintegrated in mid-air, and fell heavily to the ground. Reid only held on for a few seconds before being pushed out by the impact.

"This power...how is it possible!?" Reid was stunned.

The strength of the golden fruits obtained by different undead beasts is also different. The lower the category of the undead beast, the weaker the power of the golden fruit it carries. The strength of the aura emitted by the firefly's golden fruit is less than one tenth of the strength of the golden fruit in Chengguang's hand.

But at this moment, the golden fruit belonging to U in the hand of Hero Akaashi exuded an aura far beyond Chengguang.

The ancestor of mankind should be category 2!

"You are obviously favored by the Helheim Forest, but you don't seem to understand the Helheim Forest," Akaashi Hero laughed softly, "The Helheim Forest is the rule of the universe. There is no limit to the power and evolution it can bestow. The limit is determined by the holder himself."

"Think about it carefully. A man with no power and only a weak body, who has survived from ten thousand years ago to the present day without collapsing, what kind of golden fruit will the Helheim Forest bestow upon him?"

The Akaashi Hero opened his arms and laughed.

"This man is human civilization itself! So even if it is a fake golden fruit, it is infinitely close to the real thing!"

"He could have used this golden fruit to complete his own evolution, but he didn't do that. He insisted on the bottom line of the so-called Watcher."

The Akaashi Hero smiled contemptuously, raised his foot and stepped on U's head, crushing it left and right.

"At that time, he was tortured beyond recognition, but he still persisted. How stupid he was—"

Reid's pupils slowly expanded and contracted. The metal armor on his body brought by the integrated lock seed bounced off in the high temperature, and sharp barbs rose from it.

"Hey you--"

The light of the integrated lock lit up, and more mechanical arms rose up, forcibly pressing the growing barbs back into the body.

A sharp sonic boom rose up, and a stream of light had already reached the face of the Akaashi Hero. His wrist strength was strengthened, and flames attached. Facing a punch that was the power of the golden fruits of two undead beasts, the Akaashi Hero was incomparably calm.

He held U's golden fruit tightly in his right hand and raised his left hand. A dazzling light followed U's golden fruit and wrapped around the left arm of the Akaashi hero.

"boom--"

The storm blew out from behind the Akaashi hero.

Reid slowly opened his eyes.

His fist was caught.

The hideous, twisted, pitch-black hand, like a devil's hand from hell, appeared in Red's eyes.
