The fool's fool

This is the melody of a fool with nowhere to go.

The legendary handsome man——W's husband who died early due to illness, and later the director of the purchasing department of System World——

It was at that time that he officially joined the Eternal Life Society.

Before joining the Eternal Life Society, the legendary handsome man was already a notorious evil spirit. He claimed to be a businessman who always stood on a neutral position. As long as there was profit to be made, he would do anything, regardless of good or evil.

Of course, it turns out that it was just "self-praise".

The legendary handsome guy had to crawl into the Eternal Life Society at that time, trying to find the power of the Eternal Life Prison to protect himself.

-2-

The word "forever" carries considerable weight, even if we exclude the short-lived lives of humans and animals and consider the myriad species that inhabit the myriad worlds...

The word "forever" is almost a lie.

So far, the only things that seem to be able to achieve "forever" in countless worlds are the dark banshee outside the system world and the prisoners at the bottom of the Eternal Life Prison.

The former possesses everlasting power, while the latter possesses an everlasting and unlimited sentence.

-3-

...Of course, the latter is much less well-known than the former.

Who would pursue prison terms instead of power?

The prisoner of the Eternal Life Prison is also a much more low-key fellow than the Banshee.

Its presence is too weak. If it weren't for the warden who stubbornly transformed the Eternal Life Prison into the Eternal Life Society in order to hunt down the Banshee, no one would have heard of it.

At that time, all beings who mentioned "Banshee" would only refer to "M", and would only refer to the dark shepherd of the system world.

At that time, no one had heard of the miracle of all wishes being fulfilled, the endless stream of wish-makers, the crazy gambles with unknown contents, or the forced birth of twin worlds.

Even the warden himself has never been exposed to the secrets of the Eternal Life Prison and its prisoners.

Too many secrets were buried along with the prisoner's crushed heart.

-4-

Prisoners keep too many secrets.

He even saved the most important memory for his most beloved wisher.

So he must keep a low profile and remain eternally calm...

Even if you become the most inconspicuous, weakest puppy that seems to be bullied by anyone.

-5-

However, the legendary handsome guy is an evil spirit with some exceptions.

Just like when he was alive, he noticed the difference in W at first sight, and saw the powerful protection hidden behind that beautiful woman.

When he occasionally heard about the existence of the prisoners, he kept a thought in mind.

A thing of eternal peace.

A guy who can remain "calm" all the time must have exceptionally strong endurance and self-control - how does such a person make everyone believe that he is "weak"?

Moreover, no matter how well-known it is or what its reputation is, [Prisoner] can be mentioned on par with [M] in the system world.

The legendary handsome guy would never believe that the guy who could be mentioned on the same level as the terrifying black shadow in the system world was just a weak, innocent and pitiful puppy.

-6-

He once believed that his wife was a kind, gentle and virtuous person, but what happened next was that she was seen laughing wildly and gnawing on garlic pork ribs in front of his hospital bed, rubbing her hands in anticipation of inheriting his estate.

...No, the legendary handsome guy doesn't believe it. He no longer believes in this gentle and harmless type, and no longer believes in the rumors of "weak", "pitiful" and "easy to bully".

He firmly refused to believe it.

-7-

Therefore, when the legendary handsome guy wanted to end his previously claimed "neutral position", the first organization he thought of joining was the Eternal Life Society.

Because behind the Eternal Life Society is the Eternal Life Prison, and at the bottom of the Eternal Life Prison exists a prisoner who is on par with the Banshee.

In other words, the legendary handsome guy originally joined the Eternal Life Society in order to join the prisoners and seek its protection.

As for why this originally powerful evil spirit ended the "neutral position" he had always insisted on, desperately sought help from other beings, and even put on a humble "surrender posture" -

-8-

Because the banshee in the system world went crazy.

Completely, totally, mad.

-9-

No one knows why—whether the change occurred overnight or in an hour—

Or maybe, it's just a moment.

Look back, reach out, and catch the broken air.

Just that moment.

After that moment...

The dark, terrifying, and extremely powerful Banshee in the system world swung its huge sickle and began to slaughter indiscriminately.

-10-

Hunt, kill, crush.

The mad black banshee began to slaughter every evil spirit that had ever taken a human life.

Regardless of right or wrong, good or bad, regardless of race, as long as they have taken human lives, as long as they have devoured humans—

The black banshees were all slaughtered, and the evil spirits' heads and blood mud almost blended into the shadow of the giant scythe.

And that madman... that devil... the reason he gave was just...

-11-

[An evil spirit stole my puppy.]

-12-

The Banshee is extremely sensitive to death.

Even if I searched everywhere, turned the world upside down and covered it up again, all I could find was shattered air, a handful of scattered flowers, and a trace of blood covered by snow that I hadn't had time to clean up...

These are enough for the crazy banshee to smell the cause of death.

【Tongue, eyes, fingers, heart.】

The Banshee depicts the beautiful yet tragic death and finds traces of evil spirits.

【A long, narrow, thin-bladed, very sharp knife.】

-13-

So, it's simple to conclude...

The Banshee grabbed a huge sickle and slaughtered every evil spirit she had ever seen, heard, or smelled.

-14-

An evil spirit had taken her puppy.

Then go and get it back.

And she wanted to let all, all, all the disgusting, shabby, and twisted things know...

-15-

That's my puppy.

【No snatching allowed.】

—The ever-powerful black shadow in the myriad worlds went completely mad, and began a massacre comparable to the one it had once carried out against the entire Banshee tribe—

The evil spirits screamed, fled, resisted, blamed each other, and were completely desperate.

No one can face a catastrophic disaster calmly, even if they are no longer fragile humans, and [Disaster] is just a banshee.

It's not that she can't be hurt, it's not that she can't be bitten...

She just couldn't lower her head, couldn't stop the butcher knife in her hand.

——When she has not yet grasped the knife, she can stand forever on the battlefield and become the darkest despair in the eyes of all evil.

-16-

Are you kidding me? That's the most powerful banshee in the universe.

-17-

She hunted down every evil spirit...slaughtered them, crushed them...and always before crushing them she gouged out their eyes, cut off their fingers, and cut out their tongues...

Then, he slowly spread the blood on his dimple and asked a crazy question.

Where is my puppy hidden?

-18-

...That banshee is crazy.

She had never been normal before, but at that time, she was absolutely crazy—

The legendary handsome guy didn't dare to recall it. Just thinking about it made him shudder.

Evil spirits are a group of chaotic and evil creatures. They have no order, no society, and no government to provide protection.

Faced with such a horrific disaster, apart from waiting for death, all one can do is desperately seek out powerful forces and join those organizations.

Of course, too small is not acceptable either.

Several evil spirits gathered together and hid in a small evil organization in another world. However, within a day, they were all killed by M who came to find them...

hiss.

-19-

Looking back, the turmoil only lasted a few days, but it almost became an era.

[Doomsday] is certainly enough to become an era.

It was in this turbulent era that the legendary handsome man stumbled into the Eternal Life Society...

-20-

As a result, it was discovered that the prisoner was not the organizer of the Eternal Life Society at all.

It has nothing to do with this organization and is still imprisoned in the deepest part of the Eternal Life Prison. There are rumors that "prisoners are closely related to the Eternal Life Society" only because the leader of the Eternal Life Society is the warden of the prison.

Walking in the corridor of the Eternal Life Society, listening to the evil spirits chattering about how powerful the Eternal Life Society is ("I heard that several of them dared to eat the employees of the System World before"), the legendary handsome guy was a little disappointed.

He had just met the warden when he submitted his resume. He was indeed a dangerous and crazy evil spirit, but, how to put it...

That's it.

It is absolutely impossible to be on par with the Banshee, and it is even more impossible to protect anyone from the Banshee's knife.

-twenty one-

The legendary handsome guy has seen dozens, if not hundreds, of evil spirits of that level.

Character, strength, vision, wisdom... in every aspect, she is not on the same level as the Banshee.

Businessmen are best at measuring the value of things. If you were to rate the Banshee's danger level out of five stars, the warden's danger level would probably be only half a star at most.

Moreover, the brightness of the stars in the posted reviews is different.

-twenty two-

Sigh, if only I could find a way to see the prisoner, that would be great. If that's not possible, I'll have to leave the Eternal Life Society and think of a way to wash away my previous criminal record and get into the system world...

The legendary handsome guy was thinking in his mind, still chatting and laughing with the evil spirit next to him with an expectant expression on his face.

These evil spirits, like him, were trying their best to join the Eternal Life Society and hoped to obtain its protection. He couldn't show his disdain for this organization in front of these evil spirits who were looking forward to joining.

If he had to run, he would run alone. As an evil spirit, it would be even harder for him to break into the system world than the Eternal Life Society. Why would he say that and increase his competition? He was not stupid.

At this moment, the member of the Eternal Life Society who was leading the way suddenly stopped.

"Let's change direction and visit the human storage room first. There are many delicious snacks prepared for the new members..."

-twenty three-

It hurriedly turned around and signaled the evil spirits to follow it in another direction.

An evil spirit asked, "But didn't you just want to take us to see the open kitchen?"

"Go to the human storage room first, then..."

The legendary handsome guy quietly leaned his head out to take a look, and vaguely saw a figure sitting quietly on a bar stool in the open kitchen in front of him.

-twenty four-

It was a very pale figure, wearing a somewhat dirty white robe, with two heavy shackles hanging on the ankles under the robe.

The chain coiled on the ground like a snake.

...Shackles? Chains?

-25-

Prisoner.

The legendary handsome guy's eyelids couldn't help but twitch.

Out of some kind of businessman's intuition, when the evil spirit leading them away, he secretly broke away from the team and ran back.

Yes, that open kitchen.

Yes, that pale figure sitting on the bar stool...

-26-

"Uh, a kid?"

The kid on the bar stool shifted and turned his head.

He must have been a sickly child, his lips were bloodless and his cheeks were whiter than the marble bar counter.

This made his red eyes even more glaring, scarlet... and empty.

The legendary handsome man couldn't help but shudder. The shudder he felt at that moment was the same as when he thought of the Banshee.

-27-

"Sorry, did I scare you?"

The child said, lowering his head and rubbing his eyes: "I haven't paid attention to covering it these days. It must have become uglier."

"...Oh, no, no, thank you."

The legendary handsome guy was a bit surprised.

The child of the Eternal Life Society must also be an evil spirit. Child evil spirits are often more cunning and eccentric in character and temperament - he has never seen such a polite and gentle type.

So he subconsciously let his guard down, pulled out a bar stool, and sat down next to the child.

"I'm sorry, I just saw you in shackles from behind and thought you were the...prisoner."

The prisoner had existed longer than him, so he was definitely not this kind of child.

"Hello, little one."

-28-

But the other party said: "Hello. Don't call me kid, this name is exclusive."

"Oh... that... kid? Hello? Ugh, do you know the prisoner?"

The organ tilted his head. "What are you looking for the prisoner for? The prisoner is out temporarily."

-29-

The legendary handsome guy was stunned for a moment, a little surprised: "Really? I heard rumors that he has been imprisoned at the bottom of the prison..."

"That was the case before. Then I won a bet, set up a gambling game, and went out to vent."

"So he is now..."

"I'm back."

-30-

The red-eyed child said indifferently, "Because I didn't use my free time to play properly, I accidentally developed a useless love brain. Recently, I locked myself in a cage and cried because of a breakup. The prisoner cried in there for three days and couldn't come out."

Legendary handsome guy: "..."

Legendary handsome guy: "Can I ask which cage it is..."

The child deadpanned, "It's a prison of the soul. That lovelorn fool is still crying. He'll probably cry for another three weeks."

-31-

oh.

-32-

...The amount of information was too overwhelming. The legendary handsome guy said dryly, "It's okay. I've also experienced the pain of a broken heart... Although I didn't cry, I drank heavily for the whole night..."

"Drinking? I see. Indeed, after a breakup, there is one step called 'drinking'."

"...Uh, are you collecting..."

The child nodded, and a little vitality appeared in his empty eyes.

"A newly developed love-brain is truly terrifying. The prisoner no longer wants to be in love, so this will be his only experience of heartbreak. This breakup will be his last. So he wants to take advantage of this breakup to fully savor the joys of heartbreak. After all, it's a limited emotion, a limited experience. Who knows, in three weeks, he might cry himself to the point of losing his mind and crawl to his ex's doorstep, begging for a reconciliation."

“…”

-33-

The prisoner is indeed an extraordinary person.

The legendary handsome guy said with a stiff face - he didn't know why he had a stiff face and discussed such an unfamiliar topic with such a young child -

"Well, if you're really sad enough to cry for three weeks, asking for reconciliation is the right thing to do, right? After all, you really love her..."

"That's not the problem."

The organ said calmly, "The prisoner's ex was a fool whose only thought was sex. This is already his third day here, alone and crying. He's probably already had sex with his new bedmate seven or eight times."

-34-

“…”

"She rolls in bed faster than a prisoner can finish crying."

“…”

"Besides, asking for reconciliation at this time is really love-brained and licking the dog. She doesn't like love-brained people or licking the dog."

“…”

The legendary handsome guy was speechless.

"So, uh, the prisoner..."

"The prisoner intends to continue to isolate himself seriously, fully experiencing his last heartbreak. After all, it's a limited-time experience."

-35-

The red-eyed child extended his hand to him. The legendary handsome guy lowered his head and saw a bucket of ice cream with a spoon stuck in it.

...It turned out that the child was sitting here quietly just now, just showing off the bucket of ice cream.

"Thank you for your suggestion. I can't think of any other way for a prisoner to experience ice cream except eating it. Here's the bucket for you. I'll go look in the cupboard for some wine."

"……that……"

"It's okay. This bucket of ice cream wasn't bought. The president threw it on the floor of the prisoner's room."

He probably wanted to inflict some excessive insult, because after smashing it, he seemed to say something like, "What a complete failure, a little stray dog ​​who can only lick the ice cream on the ground"...

I've been crying a lot lately, and because I was afraid of making my eyes cry even more, I cried in my heart, so it was difficult to concentrate and hear what he said.

But after the warden left, he accidentally discovered that the bucket of ice cream was marked with "limited flavor". He didn't want to waste it, so he took it out and found a spoon to eat it.

-36-

The child curled his lips when he said this.

"Turns out it wasn't a limited flavor at all. It was just plain vanilla. It tasted terrible..."!
