Chapter 497
That Child of Light with thick eyebrows and big eyes couldn't possibly be an imposter, could he?
But it's hard to say.
This guy insisted on bringing the Queen to his house; it's obvious he wanted to divert trouble!
Wei Gong feigned confusion and asked, "Um, what are you talking about? Did Merlin the Heartless offend you?"
"Oh, do you still need to pretend in front of me?"
Scathach's eyes were a deep crimson, like fresh blood.
In that instant.
Its bloodthirsty killing intent, which emerged from hell and slaughtered countless evil gods and demons, poured out wantonly.
It was as if I saw a throne situated amidst mountains of corpses and seas of blood, filled with endless slaughter.
That murderous intent alone is enough to terrify countless people.
Wei Gong tried to pretend to be frightened.
The problem is, even an award-winning actor can't convincingly portray that feeling of utter trembling.
He said, feeling utterly helpless, "So, what exactly do you mean?"
Since you're a purple-haired old woman who's over two thousand years old, and you want to pretend to be a seventeen-year-old high school girl, then keep pretending!
Why did you have to reveal it yourself?
"It's simple. You want to disguise your aura, but you can't do it in front of me."
Scathach replied calmly.
As an immortal, godlike being.
She transcended humanity, slew gods, and placed herself Reverse Side of the World, thereby gaining wisdom from the abyss.
It can be called --
[The Wisdom of the Magic Mirror]
Despite being a mere spearman, she possesses the Magecraft's [Clairvoyance], allowing her to see parts of the future!
She even saw through Cú Chulainn's fate.
That's why, without being summoned, he voluntarily descended upon the Fifth Singularity, wanting to assist Nameless in cleaning up the mess.
Scathach looked at the silent boy with disdain and said, "Besides, do you really think I'm blind with your cooking skills?"
"... What's wrong with your cooking?"
Wei Gong was taken aback.
To my utter surprise, it was this aspect that was exposed.
His cooking skills are indeed excellent, but the problem is that they're only at the level of an average person, right?
"Hehe, your culinary skills have reached a level close to the Dao, and you're sung about by thousands. You could almost become Heroic Spirit because of it," Scathach replied.
"..."
Wei Gong fell silent.
Good grief, I was careless this time, I didn't use Flash!
He possesses the culinary skills to have traversed six thousand years of Human History and integrated the expertise of countless renowned chefs from ancient and modern times, both Chinese and foreign.
They had long since mastered it and formed their own school of thought.
Most importantly...
With each revelation of [Alaya], Heroic Spirit around the world are reminded of what they had eaten before.
With the addition of countless listeners singing and envying it, it truly transcended the realm of ordinary people.
That's why Heroic Spirit like Cú Chulainn, knowing he's just an ordinary person, would still shamelessly come to freeload!
Is the Grand Chef confirmed?
Wei Gong had mixed feelings.
If this continues, could he even obtain the title of [Crowned Beauty]?
When that time comes, once the aura of charm is activated, will all the opposite sexes in the world be captivated and flock to her?
Like that new anime series, Crispy Shark Girl?
No, she should be even more perverted than the other person, so much so that even men can't resist her!
"Not only that, that seemingly ordinary little girl should be connected to the Demon God King," Scathach continued.
"Uh, what are you talking about?"
Wei Gong feigned doubt and asked a question in return.
He was recognized, and that was that.
The problem is, the mischievous kids can't be exposed.
Now that [Alaya] has released the Final Singularity video, if it were to be leaked, the world would be thrown into chaos!
At that time, countless people will be terrified, fearing that the unruly child will suddenly turn violent.
"He... you can't seal him for long."
Scathach glanced in the direction the other person was.
During the meal earlier, she had vaguely sensed that the other person was filled with a destructive power.
That power was so strong, strong enough to instantly vaporize all Heroic Spirit.
Scathach has lived for over two thousand two hundred years, yet she wants to die in a human way.
But she absolutely did not want to be killed by the enemy.
She longs for someone she cares about to personally send her on her way.
"I know."
Wei Gong sighed softly and decided to stop hiding it.
In fact, even if [Alaya] doesn't release the exposé video, the power of the mischievous kids is recovering wildly.
One day he will break free of the seal and transform into a world-destroying brat.
After completing its ultimate transformation and becoming Planetary Consciousness, it became impossible for humanity to defeat it.
Not to mention killing him.
If the other side were to be killed, humanity would perish along with them.
Before that, he could only try his best to recover his strength so that he could seal it again.
Wei Gong stared intently at the other person. "So, you're asking me to find Merlin, and what do you want me to do?"
"It's simple—kill me," Scathach replied calmly.
"..."
Wei Gong hesitated, as if he wanted to speak.
I asked you for help, and you want me to kill you in return? What a twisted and Yandere you are!
"I have taken countless lives, whether human, dead, or deity."
Scathach's eyes were filled with painful memories, "Endless slaughter, this body has become eternal."
"I can't remember when I picked up a gun, let alone how many years have passed."
"So, I look forward to the day you successfully save the world, and then kill me in a cool way!"
Endless killing intent, an infinite lifespan.
An eternal body, coupled with battle memories so clear they are unparalleled.
Every day that keeps her alive is torture.
But upon seeing this Nameless Heroic Spirit, a strange tenderness welled up within her.
Even the body, cold and indifferent because of its eternal existence, felt a little warmth.
Therefore, she wanted to be killed by his own hands.
Bury her in a human way.
"I see..."
Wei Gong felt increasingly troubled.
If you can't remember clearly, isn't that just Alzheimer's disease?
You still dare to call yourself a seventeen-year-old beauty?
Of course, he wouldn't dare say that out loud.
Once those words are spoken, they're no longer a request from the other party, but rather a threat to be hunted down and killed!
"I'm sorry, I can't possibly harm you. If you really want to die..."
Wei Gong thought for a moment, then asked earnestly, "Are you willing to become Grand Order Heroic Spirit and assist me in battle?"
There are many candidates for the Lancer-class Grand; it's not that only King Hassan is the sole candidate for the Assassin-class.
For example, the Divine Ancestor appeared earlier had already abandoned the Grand Order Spirit Core.
The Grand Order Lancer is still vacant.
Since the other party is seeking death, what could be easier than becoming Grand Order Heroic Spirit and confronting the ultimate evil?
"Grand Order Heroic Spirit? Unfortunately, sacrificing Grand Order Strike won't kill me."
Scathach replied calmly.
Grand Order Spirit Core, arguably the strongest one-time use Noble Phantasm against Beasts.
It's like a super-enhanced version of [Stella].
However.
This won't put her into eternal slumber; at most, she'll lose her Grand Order Spirit Core and revert to her original state.
The kind of sacrifice Doctor Roman made to reach the ultimate state of "nothingness" is a coincidence within a coincidence.
It's something that no one else could do, even if they wanted to.
"Isn't it good to be alive...?"
Wei Gong's feelings became even more complicated.
He fought with all his might just to enjoy life.
But now, the other party is determined to die.
If [Alaya] plays the Lostbelt video, I wonder if it will change his mind.
"Merlin and Tamamo no Mae are together. Based on the glimpses of the future I've glimpsed, she seems to be planning something against Doctor Roman."
Scathach skillfully changed the subject.
Given their attitude, it's clearly unlikely they wanted to kill her.
But seeing that the other person was living as an ordinary high school student gave her a stronger will to live.
Maybe I could be a normal high school girl?
Wei Gong frowned. "That bastard, he really thinks the previous punishment wasn't enough!"
The reason he had previously forced the other Potion of Youth was to punish Merlin the Heartless.
The other party is now trying to provoke Doctor Roman, clearly in an attempt to anger him.
After all, he was Doctor Roman's only Dear Friend.
It was clearly a show of force, a way to provoke and threaten him.
He and Doctor Roman both just wanted to live ordinary lives, so why did they have to come and bother them?
It's true, you have a path to heaven but choose not to, and a path to hell but choose to come anyway.
