Comics: Starting from Killer Queen

Chapter 171: Mystic Eyes of Death

Ryougi Shiki dreams of the nostalgic past.

She was born into the Yoji family, a clan of demon-exorcists. Although they have not joined the mainstream Western magic formula, the Yoji family is still a traditional magic family that has passed down the common wishes of all magicians through blood and technology from generation to generation.

——Approach or even reach the root.

The surname Liangyi, which symbolizes the two-part Tai Chi, also represents their vision.

An omniscient and omnipotent being was created by putting multiple personalities in one body. Her name implies that this body can perform various tasks with different personalities, just like a computer executing different programs.

The Ryougi Shiki, born through the secret technique, is the most perfect work of the Ryougi family.

Shi, which represents yin, is a female personality and a positive mind, while Zhi, which represents yang, is a male personality and a negative mind.

As for Ori, who was closer than twins and had one heart and one body, Ryougi Shiki had a deep desire to kill her.

She was fighting against the evil impulse, the bloodthirsty instinct and the temptation that was everywhere at every moment.

She can do whatever she wants, and she has no guilt about killing people.

But her grandfather's last words bound Ryougi Shiki.

'You only have one chance to kill someone, and if you lose it, you won't be able to kill yourself.'

The rest of her life seemed to be lived in a nightmare-like curse. The solemn expression and attitude of her grandfather, who could not find peace, were like a cage, locking up Ryougi Shiki's emptiness.

But she was unable to vent her increasingly repressed emotions. At the age when she was about to bloom, Ryougi Shiki longed for the blooming of killing even more, but she couldn't do it.

Because it is a symbol of negation, a desire that should not exist in one's body. Everything is brought about by the positive personality named "Weaving". The other party symbolizes all of one's negative emotions.

If humans really only have one chance to kill in order to die peacefully as themselves, then a being named Ryougi Shiki will surely be redeemed by killing Ryougi Ori.

Until the premeditated disaster came, the balance between yin and yang was broken, and the individual named Ryougi Shiki officially met death.

But the one who died was not Ryougi Shiki herself, but Ryougi Ori.

Zhi took the initiative to welcome death, thus ensuring Ryougi Shiki's survival.

The impact of this fact even surpassed the unfamiliar environment and changes in the world around him.

The empty feeling in his chest brought about by Liang Yizhi's death was far greater than any time before when he had to endure murderous intent, and what replaced that emptiness was incomparable confusion and loneliness.

She was born with defects, unable to fill the blank left by the loss of her personality. Her understanding of life and sense of self-reality all began to become blurred.

But the restless murderous intent was as clear as ice floating on the water.

The death of Liangyi Zhi did not eliminate her murderous intent, but instead made it completely surface.

What...that's ridiculous.

So the guy who wanted to be a murderer was me?

Doesn't this make me look like an irresponsible child for putting all the negative emotions on Zhi?

Just like religion, it pushes the sin away from oneself and finds a specific object to take the blame, so that one can feel at ease.

She wanted to say this, but there was no one who could listen.

Ryougi Shiki, who was missing half, should have gradually met her end as a rusty and numb puppet in this chaotic impulse. This was even more so after losing the constraints of her original world. But when she raised her head and saw the smile of the young man without any kindness under the sky of a different world, her murderous intent replaced everything.

The handsome-looking young man declared so.

"——What a pity. Ryougi's death should have been freed from the fixed matters because he was out of observation. I originally intended to save him, but he refused this request."

"Although it is understandable, after all, the moment it leaves this body, what is left behind is either the traces of Zhi or the residual soul of Zhi. This is a very ambiguous existence."

Then, when Ryougi Shiki was listening attentively, the young man revealed a ferocious smile like a wild beast.

"So, I made a deal with him. Although we are completely different in both formation and now, the incredible thing is..."

"We are very similar, both of us are Yin of Yin and Yang. For me now, there is no existence more suitable than this, so now Yin and Yang Zhi is a part of me."

Kill you——

Even ahead of this thought was Ryougi Shiki's action.

She didn't have any weapons on her, but in terms of her talent for killing, even if she only used her hands, Ryougi Shiki was an unmatched master.

Then, she fell to the ground in a mess.

The truly sad fact is that I can't even resist the action itself.

But the young man didn't even look at her as she fell to the ground. It would be more appropriate to describe him as declaring a will rather than talking to her.

Having lost half of her self, Ryougi Shiki can no longer move forward. The most common practice should be for the girl to fill the emptiness with her own beliefs, so that with the same support as Ori, Ryougi Shiki can be completed and become a true human being.

But at that time, Ryougi Shiki was facing a madman who was messing with cause and effect, an evil beast that was being completed, so she grew in another sense.

"I promised Ryougi Ori that I would keep your dream alive, so go ahead and kill it."

"What did you say?"

"I said, go ahead and kill. I am the dream that keeps you alive. You have been pushing your murderous impulses onto Zhi. Now, this has become an irreversible truth."

The young man looking down at him uttered cruel yet naive words.

"You don't have to follow this nonsense that a person can only kill one person in their lifetime. You are free to do whatever you want. You can continue to live with this attitude or become an unrestrained killer."

The young man responded with natural arrogance; "I will bear all these sins for you. I am the beast that holds the power to kill. This is my duty. I am the eternal emperor of the new millennium. Everything in the world is under my control. Therefore, I allow you to kill."

"Ryougi Shiki, don't bear any unnecessary doubts, because I will bear the cost for you. Anyway, I am also a human being, and the destination of sin. It's just like religion. Do you understand? I will bear the sin for you, and you just need to live happily."

Even though they had no contact at all, the young man still gave answers that were very similar to hers. From this point of view, she and the young man seemed to have a natural understanding.

Then, staring into those red eyes, she gave her answer with a trembling throat.

-

"Are you awake?"

Roland looked at Ryougi Shiki, who had regained consciousness and whose face was flushed, and called her name with some confusion.

The girl's eyes were completely open, but she neither screamed nor escaped from his arms immediately. Instead, she kept this action and stared blankly at Roland's face.

Ryougi Shiki did not answer, but sighed, stretched out her hand, touched Roland's face boldly, and pulled it gently.

"It doesn't hurt... In other words, it was really just a nostalgic dream."

As if one hand wasn't enough, Ryougi Shiki simply stretched out both hands, pinched Roland's face, and let out a satisfied sigh.

If the people of the Liangyi family saw this rude behavior, they would definitely be surprised. Although she would act casually when she was with close acquaintances, she would not seem to be overstepping the mark.

"That's right. Normally, you would have messed up my hair a long time ago. How could it be like this? And it doesn't feel real at all. I've been using so much force, but it doesn't hurt."

Ryougi Shiki first frowned and sighed secretly, then immersed herself in the rare entertainment in front of her.

Roland immediately understood what was going on with her.

"Is there a possibility, Shiki, that it didn't hurt at all because you pinched my face?"

Ryougi Shiki suddenly froze.

Like a nimble cat, she suddenly broke free from Roland's arms and subconsciously lifted half of her sleeves to cover her face.

"I should be the one complaining, right?"

Roland rubbed his face. Although the other party seemed to be playful, the force transmitted from the girl's slender fingertips was not strong. Combined with the feeling of the delicate skin friction, it gave him a comfortable feeling like a massage.

"Why are you the first one to feel shy... and why are you covering your face?"

I don’t want you to see me like this now.

Such a thought vaguely occurred to Ryougi Shiki's mind, but since this was not a dream, she couldn't say it out loud no matter what.

The girl's eyes quickly swept across the spotless snow around her, and the suspicion in her eyes immediately turned into surprise.

Taking this opportunity, Roland also looked at Ryougi Shiki's cold and pretty face.

Without any changes, the feeling the other person gave him was completely different from before.

Although her appearance was equally impeccable and refined, her cold temperament immediately diluted her previous intellectuality.

Judging from her temperament alone, Ryougi Shiki is now a Japanese-style beauty who men would think she is a woman, while women would mistake her for a man.

Although from this point of view, a rather regrettable feature of the other party has been quietly revealed, and it is even more so when compared with Asagami Fujino, who has that scale even as a junior high school student.

However, if he said that, Roland always felt that she would get angry and bite him, so he chose to remain silent.

Anyway, looking into the future, Ryougi Shiki still has considerable room for growth.

However, if this is the temperament, it seems that the balance between yin and yang has been broken? No wonder Araya Soren is so anxious. Then, unlike the Root Style, what kind of existence is the current Ryougi Shiki?

There was obvious curiosity in Roland's eyes, and unlike the more mysterious Root Style, Ryougi Shiki was obviously not good at keeping people in suspense.

She felt a sense of security as if she had returned home, a faint smile appeared on her face, and then she stared at Roland with a very motivated look.

"Roland, am I back to the present, or are you out of the future?"

Just after asking this question, Ryougi Shiki shook her head. She has never been the type who is good at speaking.

"Forget it, it's faster for me to see it myself."

The girl said lightly.

Roland blinked and looked at Ryougi Shiki's actions in confusion.

With a simple action of closing her eyes and then opening them again, a vast blue light emanated from the girl's pupils. Deep in the deep blue like the ocean, there was a rainbow color as bright as a flower bud waiting to bloom.

Roland stared into her pupils in silence.

Although they were both magic eyes, these eyes were far more dangerous than the twisted magic eyes Roland had seen before, not only because of the nature of these eyes, but also because of the people who used them.

The Mystic Eyes of Death Perception. In many ways, these eyes are even more famous than their owner.

Ryougi Shiki looked calmly at everything around her. Whether it was on human bodies, walls, drifting snowflakes, or even the air itself, black lines symbolizing an ominous omen appeared.

It was a symbol of death for all things, the embodiment of the concept of death. She could easily kill it by just using a weapon or a finger to touch along the line.

After Zhisi, she can see death.

Although she was somewhat resistant to these eyes at first, after the guy in front of her said, "These eyes are my last gift to you," Ryougi Shiki learned to accept these ominous eyes.

She stroked her eye sockets. In front of these eyes, even a crown-rank magician like Aozaki Touko was full of flaws. If we were to talk about levels, there was no doubt that this was a rainbow level that should not be revealed.

Although her Mystic Eyes of Death Perception are still far from the power possessed by the legendary prototype Barol, the act of comparing them is itself unfair. As a god, Barol possesses the ultimate vision of the past and future, which is why those mystic eyes are so famous.

From the perspective of ordinary people, Ryougi Shiki's Mystic Eyes are undoubtedly of the highest level.

She raised her head, put down her sleeves, and gazed at Roland in the snow with her eyes, and then her beautiful eyebrows slightly curved because of joy.

——I can’t see it.

That’s great. Ryougi Shiki suppressed her inner excitement and looked at Roland.

The other party seemed to realize what he was doing, and his eyes were full of curiosity.

“It may sound a little arrogant, but it’s hard for me to imagine what I will look like at the end of my life.”

Ryougi Shiki continued to stare at Roland with unprecedented perseverance until her eyeballs and brain began to heat up and nothing appeared. Only then did she close her eyes with peace of mind.

What the other party said was right. The reason why he couldn't see Roland's "death" was not because of any special reason, but a very simple problem of nature.

——For him, there is no concept of death.

He is the seed of unfinished fruit, one of the symbols of original perfection, and most importantly, the beast of the apocalypse that foreshadows human sin.

As a human evil, Roland himself represents a part of the end and has no concept of death.

And this state is enough to prove a lot of things.

The girl bit her lip and stared at Roland in silence.

She took a step towards Roland, like a moth to a flame, and Roland subconsciously bent down and hugged her.

"Ms. Ryougi Shiki?"

"Call me Shiki...idiot."

Without her usual icy beauty behavior, Ryougi Shiki lowered her head like an ordinary girl.

"Nice to meet you, Roland. Thank you for your guidance."
