The Young Man Performs for Sa
It wasn't just because of the terrible truth revealed in Vita's words, but also because it was the first time she had shown such a cold expression.
"Why, Vita- neechan?"
Yixin was impatient, couldn't help but ask.
"Is it the same flood as Hesper before?"
Xianjue asked thoughtfully.
In the long-standing story of Foros, there was a flood that nearly destroyed the world, and Hesper was even a former human settlement that was abandoned after the flood.
Even though those who acted as agents had no memory of it, no one ever doubted the authenticity of the event.
"Perhaps you can think of things in a more serious way."
Shi Hen added softly.
"What's the meaning?"
Xianjue frowned immediately, and the other Little Vita also turned their gazes toward the boy.
Under the gaze of the group of Little Vita, Shi Hen smiled and remained silent, only looking at Vita with a smile in his eyes.
"This rain originated from the creator god of this planet."
Vita naturally understood the boy's meaning, and gently gritted her teeth as she explained, "For some reason, He has already decided to destroy this world."
——
Upon hearing this, all the Little Vita were stunned, and even Griseo couldn't help but show deep surprise on her face.
"Isn't that going too far?"
Even if it's the god who created Foros, now he wants to destroy the world...
His most genuine True Form collapsed to the ground.
"That wretched, evil god! Why would He do such a thing?!"
Yixin waved his little fist and asked the sky.
"Perhaps it's because I betrayed Him."
Gently twirling a few strands of hair that had fallen beside her temple, Vita spoke in a nonchalant tone.
"???"
In an instant, the Little Vita were stunned again.
"There's no need to make that face. Is this really that hard to believe?"
Vita continued in a light tone.
"Sister Vita, why did you do this?"
Unification asked in a trembling voice.
"Who knows? Maybe it's because I'm tired of being an agent."
With an impatient tone, Vita's lips curled slightly, "By the way, if you properly ask that Brother Shi Hen for help, he might be able to capture me and offer me to the gods, and you and Foros will all be safe and sound."
"No! We won't do that!"
Upon hearing this, the impatient Yixin was the first to shout.
"That's right, we will never betray Sister Vita!"
"Exactly! It must have been the gods who did something outrageous first, that's why Sister Vita thought of running away!"
The other Little Vita also called out.
"Oh? So in your opinion, it doesn't matter if you and Foros are destroyed?"
Seeing Little Vita eagerly expressing her trust, Vita chuckled and asked.
"..."
In Setsuna, the Little Vita fell silent.
Looking at the group of Little Vita exchanging bewildered glances, the smile on Vita's lips gradually cooled and disappeared.
Yes, after spending so much time with these children, she should have understood long ago.
The role of city agents is ingrained in the underlying logic of the Little Vita; they are naturally inclined to use any means necessary to protect Foros.
Even the one who accompanies them in every reincarnation is utterly insignificant compared to the entirety of Foros.
If she goes against her sacred duty to protect the city, then even Vita is nothing more than a complete sinner...
"That's not how it is!"
Kazuhiro, who should have been the most shy, shouted loudly, "Of course we want to protect Foros!"
But... Sister Vita is also our most important family member!
As he spoke, He Guang looked at the black-haired youth still looked calm and said, "Brother Shi Hen, I know you should have a way to take Sister Vita away."
So, I'm counting on you, Vita.
"We, as your agents, will protect this Foros until the very last moment!"
Are you sure you want this?
Meeting He Guang's earnest gaze, Shi Hen asked in a serious tone.
"That's right! This is...our only request as agents...no, as Vita's family!"
Kazumitsu answered in a more serious tone.
"Sister Vita, you must take good care of yourself from now on!"
He hugged Vita tightly around the Yixin and said in a voice that sounded like he was about to cry.
"People who can't take care of themselves are always the ones who are popular."
The most straightforward of True Form said instinctively, his eyes filled with reluctance as he looked at Vita, "Sister Vita, we will always remember you."
"..."
Vita's eyelids twitched involuntarily at True Form's overly sincere words, and she shook her head slightly. "Really, you guys are such a bunch of fools. You believe everything people say without question."
How can she then make up her mind to pursue freedom?
The group of Little Vita: "Huh?"
Ignoring the surprised looks of the Little Vita, Vita's figure, which had been flickering occasionally, quickly solidified, as if she had transmitted all her power and information.
At this moment, Vita had transformed from a projection into her true form.
Seemingly sensing the change in Vita's aura, several blinding bolts of lightning flashed across the sky, and the already torrential rain intensified to another level.
"Are you satisfied now, my Bishop Sir?"
With her arms crossed and a cold laugh, Vita said to the boy in an annoyed tone.
She believed that, given the power the boy possessed, it wouldn't be too difficult for him to simply capture her.
But the other party was clearly not a kind person, insisting that she take the initiative to do so.
"I'd like to hear Miss Vita pledge her loyalty to me in person."
Shi Hen smiled and said.
But then he noticed the kind smile on the Fairy Miss's face, and Shi Hen's expression changed slightly. He said, "However, since Miss Vita has made her choice, I will naturally not go back on my word."
As she spoke, Shi Hen's aura rapidly intensified, quickly growing from the power of a standard S-rank Valkyrie to the limit of a regular Herrscher.
Well, to prevent scaring So away before they even meet, he had previously relied on the authority of the Herrscher of Erosion to manifest his power as a partial projection.
Now that his goal has been achieved, he can certainly project more of his power over here.
"Shi Hen, are you going to fight that god?"
Griseo suddenly asked.
"I will definitely win."
Shi Hen responded with a smile.
Even considering the current size of the projection, he is indeed far inferior to Sa.
After all, the other party has been established in the Quantum Sea for so long, so he still has to consider the game experience of the deity and let the god win three rounds first.
"I want to go too!"
Looking directly at the boy, Griseo spoke with unwavering resolve.
"Little Griseo?"
Elysia blinked her eyes and asked.
"I've recognized him. That guy is the villain who attacked the Ark before. I won't let him get away with this easily!"
Feeling a slight blush rise on her cheeks under the Fairy Miss's gaze, Griseo explained in a firm tone.
"In that case, the fate of this world is in your hands~"
Seemingly accepting the answer without any doubt, Elysia smiled slightly and winked at the boy.
"..."
Shihen rolled his eyes at the Fairy Miss, Shi Hen lit up with light, and he immediately carried Vita and Griseo straight into the sky.
PS: Squeak...
Chapter 45 The Young Man Offers His Acting Skills
Like a white meteor piercing the sky, Shi Hen completely ignored the rules and restrictions that Suo had set up in the sky, and led Vita and Griseo straight through layers of dark clouds to reach the sky.
Bang--
As if breaking through an invisible barrier, what lay beyond the dark clouds was not the actual atmospheric space, but a completely chaotic and gloomy region.
"Watch out! Something's coming down from above!"
Suddenly she called out, Griseo instinctively stepped in front of the boy, her paintbrush switching into lightsaber form at the same time.
As the girl finished speaking, a giant gray-green tentacle crashed down from the sky, its force as heavy as a pillar supporting the Qing Tian collapsing.
Swish—
Faced with Suo's sudden attack, Shi Hen's expression did not change at all. Only his black hair at the back of his head grew longer and turned white, and a white barrier in the shape of plum blossoms immediately appeared above the three of them.
Boom!
The enormous tentacles, almost blotting out the sky, fell down, but were firmly blocked by the seemingly thin white barrier, unable to advance even an inch.
She glanced at the boy with some surprise, but Griseo didn't hesitate much. She suddenly pushed off with her feet, leaping high into the air, and slashed her lightsaber at the tentacles.
Swish—
In Setsuna, a flash of sword light appeared, and the tentacle, which was almost the size of a small mountain, was severed. The broken limbs turned into eerie green energy spots and quickly dissipated.
Wow! Both of you are indeed very reliable!
I believe that even without Little Vita, the two of you can definitely defeat that evil god.
While clapping and exclaiming, Vita wore an almost exaggerated smile.
"It seems we need to give Miss Vita some room to shine later."
With a smile, Shi Hen immediately saw through someone's attempt to slack off.
Vita: "..."
"Just as Sister Elysia said, Shi Hen, you are a very trustworthy person."
With a graceful sword flourish, Griseo landed lightly, looked up at the slowly dissipating plum blossom-shaped barrier, and a gentle smile involuntarily appeared on her lips.
"Um?"
Somewhat Elysia about what Alicia had said to Griseo, Shi Hen didn't press the matter at this moment. "Griseo, how are you feeling? Can you continue fighting?"
He spoke softly, a hint of worry in his eyes Shi Hen he looked at the girl.
Even though the vitality of Fusion Warrior far exceeds that of ordinary people, Griseo was still put to sleep by So for a full 1,500 years, and her body was undoubtedly in a weakened state.
