I trust you.
The demon queen muttered to herself that she trusted the god she would kill.
They were seen as the only hope by mortals, yet they trusted their enemy...
This bizarre turn of events left the Holy Light speechless.
silence.
A long silence.
In a silent space, the scale of time has long since changed.
It's unclear how much time passed—perhaps just a moment, or perhaps an eternity—but the holy light finally reacted.
You said...you trust me?
She didn't react further; she just felt strange.
Yes, I trust you.
"If I didn't trust you, I wouldn't have made such a risky plan."
Ning Feng smiled and continued:
"Surprised?"
The Lord of Holy Light nodded, then shook his head, and said with amusement:
"There are some, but after thinking about it, it doesn't seem so surprising."
trust……
hehe.
That's a really interesting word.
This word is particularly interesting, especially when there is an irreconcilable conflict between the two.
"What's the reason?"
Ning Feng shook his head, chuckling, but it was unclear who he was laughing at.
There wasn't any particular reason.
"I just believe you wouldn't ignore mortals."
"I firmly believe that you will stop me at the last moment."
"Fortunately, you are the same as the Lord of Holy Light I know."
Ning Feng said that all gambling, not even half of it, was based on the premise that the Lord of Holy Light would act in the manner he envisioned.
"…………"
The deity frowned, pondered, and finally sighed.
"But is it really okay to trust me this much? This is clearly our first formal conversation."
That's right.
This was actually the first formal conversation between Ning Feng and the Lord of Holy Light, two people who had been entangled for a thousand years.
"Are you really that confident you'll win the bet?"
Ning Feng shrugged and chuckled:
"It was a gamble, but I won. Everything went exactly as I planned."
Ning Feng openly displayed his extraordinary trust in the Lord of Holy Light.
"Furthermore, even if you don't act according to my plan, I have other alternative plans."
“Even those plans… could have been achieved without me.”
"There have been far too many people who have shed blood and sacrificed their lives because of you, and I am not one of them."
"The world does not revolve around one person, but is made up of all of us."
His back was straight, bearing the prophetic pronouncements of countless mortals.
"It's just a matter of sacrificing a little more."
"Let's sacrifice more ambitious soldiers, abandon more children who could have had a bright future, and let the world hate more gods."
"We are not afraid of sacrifice, we have never been afraid."
Gazing quietly into the eyes of the deity, Ning Feng whispered:
"At most, it just means taking a slightly longer route."
"But no matter how winding the road may be, no matter how much we have to pay, we will eventually win this battle."
"This is not a wish, but a fact that was destined to happen."
He said:
"Mortals will live on forever."
"I am not a savior, and mortals do not need a savior."
"I am just a mortal, and all I am doing is speeding up this process."
He rose from his chair, looked down at the deity opposite him, and extended his palm.
"So, at the very end... I'll repeat my request one last time."
"For the sake of this world, would you please die?"
Then please atone to this world with your deaths.
"...That's really an excessive request."
Without shaking Ning Feng's outstretched hand, the Lord of Holy Light took another sip of red tea before softly saying:
"You know that not all gods are hostile towards mortals, right?"
"I know."
"You also know that there are gods who have shown kindness to mortals, right?"
"Yes, I know that too."
"Really... You've already decided, and you won't change your mind?"
"It's over now."
Narrowing his eyes, the Lord of Holy Light slowly rose and said:
"It seems there's no room for negotiation anymore."
"Since that's the case... you've prepared yourself mentally, haven't you?"
As she stood up, the previously evenly matched situation suddenly underwent a dramatic change.
The light, which had been dormant, suddenly surged, expanding with unstoppable force and sweeping towards the darkness.
Kakaka...
Do you think I'll just surrender?
Her voice didn't show much emotion; all that could be felt was indifference.
Do you think the gods will just let this go?
Do you think everything will work the way you want it to?
As if utterly disappointed, she raised her hand forward, her five fingers clenched together as if to take control of everything.
And she does indeed have that ability.
Light and darkness began to flicker rapidly, exchanging positions with each other at an astonishing frequency.
The illusion was torn apart, and the hidden essence began to be revealed.
Beneath the veil of light and darkness lies the real world.
Ning Feng and the Lord of Holy Light were not inside the sun, but in a special space between reality and illusion.
