Volume 2 Rashomon of Yomi Hirasaka Chapter 23 Hell
"…Why is that? Are you craving for the beauty of this body?"
Looking at the unmoved Li Lin, the Lord of Huangquan tilted his head in confusion, and a faint question sounded in Li Lin's heart.
'You are not driven by sexual desire or loneliness, and you do not have any special desire for me. Why don't you let me go back home and return to the world? I can even give you power and knowledge, why do you have to do this?'
"Your resurrection requires both the spirit and body of this girl, right?"
"Yes."
"That's it, isn't it? There is a conflict in the mission conditions, right?"
Li Lin shrugged, looking helpless.
Absurd and incomprehensible reasons flowed out of his mouth like common sense , and his distorted spirit made the Lord of the Underworld feel an inexplicable terror.
"The mission goal is to bring both people out together, so one of them cannot be missing. We must go out together with Gengsa. Well, never mind. There are always various reasons for justice to kill evil, but I think that's too troublesome, really. Don't you feel tired of making excuses?"
"Evil is so good, it's free. So evil doesn't need a reason to kill evil. Because evil itself is chaotic and illogical. So I can do whatever I want."
"It is natural for evil to kill justice, and evil killing evil is just cannibalism... You should understand, right?"
"An NPC that doesn't issue quests? Ah, should I call you a quest monster?"
"……"
It's incomprehensible.
I can't understand.
I couldn't understand a single word of what this person, or this creature in human flesh, was saying.
The Lord of the Underworld, floating on the Sanzu River, looked at the smiling human in front of him and felt a sense of alienation and strangeness that he had not felt for a long time. Even if they were sealed for thousands of years, humans were just humans and could not escape life and death in the Sanzu River.
But what was going on with this person in front of me? I had already sensed his abnormality when I was living in and reading in the spirit, but now it seemed even more difficult to understand. An invisible, huge barrier stood between the two of us. What was even more terrifying was that he did not fail to understand, but completely understood and then trampled on it without a care.
The state of mind that had been blessed by countless years of practice was crumbling, and countless negative emotions were gradually emerging in the soul of the Lord of the Underworld.
'Jingshengzhe, I have a question for you.'
"Oh, go ahead and ask."
'Are you really a human?'
The Lord of Huangquan looked at the monster in front of him seriously.
"Why do you keep asking such meaningless questions? Why don't you ask me how and why should I kill you?"
'No, because you are too weak and I cannot detect your conspiracy.'
Looking at the person in front of him who seemed to care about everything and yet didn't care about anything, the Lord of Huangquan answered honestly:
'Your power is not strong at all, everything is just the skills of a mortal. But I dare not bet on your wisdom. Your thoughts are really terrifying and horrifying. Although I am the Lord of the Underworld, the reason I was punished and sealed is simply because I am attached to the mortal world. But you are not like that.'
'You are a nightmare, despair, and a villain who absolutely does not care about anything in reality. Purifying life is as natural to you as breathing, and killing tens of thousands of people is just a matter of a blink of an eye. When your soul killed hundreds of thousands of people, the whole world echoed with their cries and wails. And in the midst of it, you did not have any emotional fluctuations. No crying, no smiling, just the satisfaction of completing the mission.'
"Oh, really? So what? You have quite a lot of dialogue flow."
"……"
"really……"
Looking at the nonchalant figure in front of him, the Lord of the Underworld spoke for the first time.
The girl's gentle and graceful voice was filled with murderous intent, as well as an undisguised fear and uneasiness.
Obviously, he was just a weakling who could be easily killed by retrieving his original body. However, the wisdom flowing with terror and arrogance made the Lord of the Underworld deeply feel that his spirit was disintegrating.
Staring at the monster in front of him, the Lord of the Underworld whispered.
"You are completely crazy... No, more completely than a madman."
"continue."
Li Lin stood by the river, looking at the Lord of the Underworld with a smile on his face.
"You are not a fanatic, nor a killing enthusiast, nor a hedonist. You are just a simple demon. Your mind is a living hell. So I am going to kill you."
"Really? Are you done talking?"
Then it's my turn.
Looking at the Lord of the Underworld with an indifferent look on his face as his feet landed on the ground, Li Lin smiled and drew out his two-handed sword.
"The enemy is before our eyes, and the crime is unforgivable ."
Following Li Lin's command, the secret instrument hidden in the two-handed sword was directly awakened.
The runes of the holy sword that cut off evil gradually lit up, and the dark golden light flowed and swirled on the tip of the sword, defining the Lord of the Underworld, whose face was becoming more and more embarrassed and indifferent, as evil. A touch of golden sparks suddenly gushed out from the runes on the tip of the sword and the spine of the sword.
No mercy for the evil, judgement for the evil, the dazzling light flows on the holy sword of the Silver Dawn, as if the pale justice is roaring angrily at the evil party that has devoured countless people. Li Lin turned the sword against his forehead and kissed the rune. The gentle and tough knight ceremony promised around, transformed into an invisible blade and armor, facing all enemies of justice.
Evil is killed, the end of the Paladin. This ritual can only be used when the Dawn Knight is judging the most evil people.
It is obvious that the Lord of the Underworld, who controls souls and blood, is undoubtedly an evil party.
"No matter what, I am also a judge. It's written on the occupation list. The enemy of all evil and impurity."
The holy sword roared angrily at the enemy, and power was bestowed upon it through the ritual.
The invisible force turned into light, outlining the shape of armor on the outer body, and the dark golden light and shadow wrapped around and compressed the tip of the sword.
Bathed in the holy light, Li Lin slowly opened his eyes and looked at the girl surrounded by blood-red cherry blossoms. A hint of teasing flashed in his platinum-colored pupils.
'Mission Change: Rashomon
You have exposed all the scams one by one, and you have ignored the accusations and demands of the Lord of the Underworld. True justice will never go along with evil. No matter how just the excuses are, the control of the place and the blood sacrifice are indisputable facts.
You have realized this, and full of sense of justice, you have drawn your sword and pointed it at the terrifying enemy.
You are determined to ultimately win this battle.
Defeat or kill the Lord of the Underworld' and', save the souls of the two girls!'
"Show your health bar, it's time to kill."
Facing the Lord of the Underworld who was walking slowly towards him, Li Lin looked at the changing system tasks, and the smile on his face became more and more genuine.
