Chapter 424 Get
The arms clasped around his waist tightened almost instinctively, but eventually, reluctantly, they loosened. The professor frowned, straightened his crumpled coat, and elegantly tucked his wind-blown black hair behind his ears.
The goddess of love seemed to have finally given up her talk. She suddenly became calm and no longer concealed the deep malice and resentment in her eyes.
"I don't understand," Analene said darkly and resentfully. "If you love him, how can you avenge him? Do you think you can escape the Ockensele?"
The emotionless grey eyes glanced up at her. Just when the God of Love thought he was going to explain, he gave her an expressionless smile and said, "None of your business."
He had been talking nonsense with the sea god Odrais before because the longer a god's soul existed in the world, the greater the consumption - but he was not interested in taking the risk of revealing the truth to others, just to be kind and let the enemy know.
Analene: "..."
Her chest heaved violently, nearly suffocating at the unprecedentedly rude response. Any mortal who dared speak to her like that would have long been tortured by the petty god of lust, wishing neither life nor death. Analene simply wanted to pounce and bite to death this human who, relying on the god's favor, flaunted his power over her!
But on the surface, the God of Love's facial features gradually collapsed, revealing a despairing, almost resigned look: "Samuel, the God of Night and Death, is dead. Odileus, the God of the Sea, is dead... Now it's finally my turn, isn't it?"
"—But I won't accept this," her eyes brimming with fragile tears. Her voice gradually rose, her expression becoming increasingly distorted, tinged with hysterical madness. "I won't accept this! I am the goddess who controls love and desire. Life flourishes because of me, civilization flourishes because of me, and history continues because of me—you should all love me! I should be as immortal as the world!"
"First of all, not everyone loves even gold coins," the professor said coldly. "Secondly, as long as humans survive extinction, love and desire are indeed likely to be immortal—"
Under the increasingly resentful gaze of the God of Love, he coldly reminded: "But you are only a 'human' at this moment, Analene."
So there is actually another way to achieve "eternal life," which is to merge with the concept of "lust" and completely lose one's rationality and nature. However, the gods originally sought another kind of "eternal life" in order to escape this fate.
The Goddess of Love suddenly calmed down without any warning, and she seemed to have regained some of her sanity.
"But dear, I have to thank you for helping me kill those annoying male gods." Her voice became soft and pleasant again, and she even giggled happily. Her mood was so volatile that she seemed even more deranged. "You know, women are very vengeful. Those arrogant guys thought they could exploit and manipulate me just because I was a 'weak' goddess. Did they ever imagine that they would be destroyed by a human?!"
"You make me happy, so I'm willing to tell you a secret." Analene's voice became lower and lower: "For example, do you want to know why you were forced to leave your homeland and come to the continent of Ambrose?"
“…”
"Don't look at me like that, sweetheart. We didn't do this." She laughed softly. "The turbulence of time and space in the abyss destroyed our bodies and exploited our souls. We don't have the ability to do that."
"Go on."
The professor stared at her expressionlessly, his fingers slowly clenching. Azuka, who was standing beside him, looked at him with a gentle worry in her eyes and gently put her arm around his shoulders.
"Don't worry, it's just a guess," the God of Love shrugged. "You're not a being we can peek into. Perhaps only Fate dares to reveal a thing or two about you. So, the one who abducted you from your homeland is probably the very 'world' you're now desperately trying to save from the Old Gods—Ambrose, the God of Origin and Creation himself."
Poor thing, the malicious gloating and genuine compassion on the face of the God of Love were equally clear. The existence you are now trying so hard to save is also the existence that has forced you to leave your homeland and suffer so much - what an unfortunate and cruel truth, she thought maliciously and willfully. Resent it! Shake it up! Collapse! Even if she really had to die here today, she had to find some happiness for others!
If the future God of Destiny, Lord Magnus, were here, he would probably explode with rage - he was trembling with fear and working tirelessly for others, just because he was afraid that the tyrant would go crazy again and drag the world down the old path of destruction and restart. As a result, the damn God of Lust was already on the verge of death, and he still wanted to watch the fun!
But the man from another world just looked at her calmly for a while, until the smug and resentful smile on the God of Love's face slowly became stiff, and then he said lightly: "As expected."
The gods are so useless that they have to rely on a ridiculous "comic" to spread their faith in another world. The professor doesn't think these guys have the ability to kidnap a living person across worlds.
There was also the "Book of Genesis" app that suddenly appeared on electronic products, the surprise of Zephyr, the God of Light and Glory, when he discovered that he was from another world, and the seemingly nonsensical warnings from Magnus... From all of these things, he had already vaguely guessed that it was the "world" itself that took him away, and even the reversal of the timeline might have been caused by the intervention of the "world".
As for the reason? Perhaps it was initially simply because "fate" told "the world" that the souls of those from otherworlds were powerful and immune to being possessed by the gods, thus choosing him to assist the "protagonists" chosen by the Book of Genesis in clearing out the gods that had disturbed the abyss. Unexpectedly, the tyrant's power was even more terrifying than that of the gods themselves.
Not getting the expected reaction, the expression on Analene's face became more and more ferocious. Her final counterattack turned out to be a joke, which made her extremely crazy - ever since facing this fragile ordinary human, the gods had been defeated in front of him and achieved nothing!
——No! She wants to escape! She doesn't want to die here!
"Okay, then I'll tell you another secret." She heard her voice become even sweeter and more beautiful: "Dear, do you want to know what that guy Zephir is going to do next?"
Now! While the other party's attention was diverted to her words, the soul of the God of Lust suddenly rushed to the location of the divine seal on the priestess's neck, and screamed, "Apatra! Stop them!"
As for whether the other party could stop the God of Resistance and Change, or whether he would die immediately under the sword, Analene didn't care.
Even if it weren't for the anger caused by failure, Apatella should have been her most satisfied believer. Regardless of his status, ability, appearance, or his extremely passionate and sincere love for the God of Love, she didn't worry at all that he would disobey her orders like the boy chosen by Zephir.
"...Apatra?!" The Goddess of Love suddenly screamed in fear and anger. Her soul seemed to be tightly grasped by something hot and sticky - it was a human soul, Apatra's soul.
"Damn it, what are you doing?!" she yelled hysterically, "I want you to stop them, not catch me!"
After regaining consciousness, the priestess trembled and fell to her knees, clutching her neck tightly. The divine seal on it was burning intensely. Blood flowed from her seven orifices, and her beautiful face was distorted, as if she was enduring some kind of extremely painful pain.
But she was smiling, not Analene's charming and seductive smile that was secretly murderous, but Nivea Yuri Makian's smile, a silly smile that was extremely innocent and pure, like the smile of a little girl who finally got her beloved thing, the kind of extreme happiness and satisfaction.
"Analene, Analene, my dear Analene!" She called out in a moaning voice, with a creepy ecstasy and satisfaction: "Is it really you? I feel it! I feel it! I have finally become one with you! You are inside me!!"
Analene discovered that the new god did not take the opportunity to attack them, but instead looked at them coldly. This gave her an extremely ominous premonition and some speculations that made her quite angry.
The God of Love was almost mad with rage: "You stupid damn bitch! How dare you betray me?!"
But the priestess seemed to have completely lost all interest in what she was saying. She just knelt on the ground, crying and laughing nervously, saying, "You're going to die soon, aren't you? My poor Analene?"
"Hush, hush, don't be afraid..." Before the god of love could get angry, she immediately soothed softly, as if comforting a little girl who was afraid of the dark: "I will be with you, Analene, always with you, even to death - because I love you, more than anyone else..."
“—you lunatic!”
The Goddess of Love was so angry that she almost cried. She didn't know what the new god had done, but she could feel that her soul was gradually dissipating irretrievably.
The utter fear of impending death caused her to desperately attack the object that imprisoned her. The soul of the god of love twisted and writhed like a dying serpent, madly tearing at Apatera's soul. The excruciating pain from the shattering soul caused the priestess to collapse to the ground, bending back like a fully drawn bow, blood foam and unnatural hoarse sounds immediately overflowing from her throat.
Yet, amidst this immense pain, unbearable for ordinary people, the smile on the priestess's face grew ever more pure and brilliant, even revealing an almost holy radiance. She could sense that with each attack, Analene's soul melted more desperately and passionately into the depths of her soul, no longer able to be separated from hers—she had finally obtained what she had longed for.
"I got love! I actually got—love!"
She screamed with extraordinary happiness, then fell to the ground, completely silent.
