first player

On the night of the sixteenth day of the dungeon, Su Mingan met an unexpected person.

The woman finally took off her long-proud crystal crown and walked up to him wearing only plain clothes and trousers.

"Don't kneel before God." People shouted at her.

Mizushima Kawakora rarely put on lipstick, and looked at Su Mingan with bright black eyes: "...Do you want me to kneel down?"

The people standing on both sides cast condemning glances at her - how could there be such a disrespectful person to God?

She seemed confident that Su Ming'an would not let her kneel down, or maybe she just wanted to retain the last bit of her self-esteem. After all, Su Mingan has always been like this, very tolerant to players at the top of the list.

"Oh." Su Mingan held his chin with one hand and said lightly: "Kneel down."

A look of shock flashed across Mizushima Kawakora's eyes.

Su Mingan laughed and dismissed everyone in the hall.

"I heard that you no longer hide your true desires. You said... you want to save the world, right?" Mizushima Kawakora changed the subject: "...not domination?"

"You have asked me countless times, and now that I have made no secret of it, can you believe it?"

"I'm just...surprised. You've been acting for so long and suddenly you stopped acting. Did you talk to the organizer about something?"

"Because there is something in me that the organizer values." Su Ming'an said concisely: "Without this thing, humanity will probably be doomed."

"Do I have that kind of thing?"

They seemed to be separated by a thin film, talking to each other, but they could understand each other's meaning.

Su Mingan was about to laugh - do you also want to imply that your own wish is to save the world? So you don’t want to hide it anymore, so you come to me for an answer?

But now, their positions have been reversed. In the past, it was Mizushima Kawakora who questioned Su Mingan's wishes. Now, it was Su Mingan who questioned Mizushima Kawakora's wish, but Mizushima Kawakora couldn't express it.

He said calmly: "If you have nothing to say, just stay in the old shrine."

Mizushima Kawakora came alone and showed full sincerity. After all, this is Su Ming'an's territory. As long as he gives the order, Mizushima Kawakora will not survive. Su Ming'an planned to trap her first and wait until the dungeon was about to end before dealing with it.

"I have one final piece of information for you. You must deal with the people from the Komu family as soon as possible." Mizushima Kawakora said, "Especially Lu Shu's enemies, they will definitely try their best to kill you."

"why?"

"They once killed Lu Shu's family. Lu Shu can't let them go. They will do anything to survive, no matter how big the gap is. They may not be a threat to you, but they are a hidden danger after all."

"...If I remember correctly, the Guwu Family is your hometown."

"Maybe." Mizushima Kawakora's expression showed no signs of splitting. It’s like she doesn’t care about her relatives at all, and she doesn’t know what she experienced in her childhood: “Besides, you have to think back carefully about the people who have offended you before. They have been in constant fear all day long, and they may get together. Let's attack you. Smart people are all the same, and idiots are all weird. It's hard for you to understand their thoughts. It's best to deal with them directly and not leave any hidden dangers to the future of mankind. Akto, who is at the top of civilization, died because of a villain, you Don’t go easy on them.”

Su Mingan was startled by Mizushima Kawakora's advice.

...He really hasn't thought about this issue. He thought about too many things, and his vision never fell on these little people. Her words gave him a new perspective.

"I know." Su Ming'an said, "...including you? Mizushima Kawakora."

Mizushima Kawakora's expression went blank for a moment. Su Mingan's decisive words made her unexpected.

"If you feel you can rest assured." She was silent for a long time: "But please promise me that if you and your companions gain powers similar to 'creation' and 'resurrection' in the future, please resurrect my sister. And, After you kill me, the points and progress I have will ultimately have to be earned by you. If you kill me, it will be equivalent to adding more burdens to yourself."

"You are quite cruel to your family." Su Mingan commented briefly.

"Those who abandon me and mess up my heart, why should I stay?" These were the last words of Mizushima Kawakora. After that, she stayed in the old shrine under constant surveillance, guarded by powerful generals.

It can be seen that after Su Mingan revealed his true wish, Mizushima Kawakora no longer doubted him. This sense of drama is laughable. When Su Mingan lied, she felt that Su Mingan was telling the truth. When Su Mingan did not lie, she also felt that Su Mingan was telling the truth.

But she still wore the gold hoop necklace.

Although she is no longer a goddess, she is still attached to this status of being "favored by the world". When she was talking to Su Ming'an, her calm eyes occasionally revealed a hint of envy.

...She is envious. I envy Su Mingan's extremely high innate status. If she were an old god, even though the process would be much more difficult, she wouldn't be powerless. It's just that her possibility was cut off from the beginning, and the world didn't even give her any favor. She can only have a chance to become a goddess by working her way up as a nobody.

It is impossible for others to feel the same way as Su Ming'an, nor to understand how tired he is.

"...It turns out that it was not me who the gods favored from the beginning." She thought.

She said something at the beginning, "Because... the gods are taking care of me." At that time, she felt that Su Mingan no longer had a high status this time. He was just Su Wensheng, a high school student from a small town, with no support at all. But she herself is the goddess of the gods. But then she discovered...

Still the same.

He is still the highest status, and she is just a puppet of the gods - when her status reaches the highest level, the gods will definitely "feed" her as food to Su Ming'an and let him inherit her status. As for Su Ming'an, as long as he spends twenty days peacefully with the gods, he will reach the highest level without any pain at all.

From the beginning, she was not encouraged, expected, or favored.

……

In the sixth year of Tianshi, Su Luoluo came back.

She debugged several of the most important Dream Patrol games and came back for a short break.

Su Mingan didn't know what she had gone through this year, but it was definitely not going to be too good.

"I don't think we can wait for that kind of life." This was the first sentence she said.

Her vitality has dried up, and her voice has lost its joy... A large number of negative emotions have begun to shape her in reverse.

Su Mingan was worried about her mental condition - he had the obligation to help her adjust her mood so that he could support her to go further.

He asked Su Luoluo what he wanted to do and just relax.

She stared at him with wet eyes for a while and said that she was an adult and wanted to drink.

This stumped Su Mingan. He hesitated for a while, thinking that it might not matter that he was the body of an old god.

There is a lounge chair on the balcony. Surolo drank sip after sip, mostly beer. The golden wine poured into her mouth.

"What's so delicious about this stuff? It's very bitter." Su Mingan didn't touch it.

"...It doesn't taste good. But I'm an adult." She said: "It's like medicine...After drinking it, although there are no colorful elves dancing in front of me, I feel much better..."

When he sent her back to her room, she was already so drunk that her face was red.

In the dim corridor, only the blue scanning light flickered, and there was a cold metallic atmosphere all around. She stumbled forward a few steps, and Su Mingan carefully sent her to the room.

The room was filled with the malty aroma of wine bottles. She was very drunk, lying on the bed waving the bottle, saying that Dieying was a bad guy, that she could not go back, and that Xiao Yunduo would always be by her side...

Su Ming'an turned around and saw the photos posted on the wall - the way he gave a speech on the high platform, the way he lowered his head to read the list, the way he sat on the bench and fell asleep... He thought of Lin Guang's studio. They are all working hard to preserve everything about him.

In the middle of the wall is a painting she painted by herself. He stood among the sunflowers all over the mountains and fields, holding a white cat and smiling.

"...We will wait for that life." He murmured to himself.

Even if I can't wait, you will wait.

Those sunflowers, sunset, sunrise and sunset...are all beautiful before they are polluted.

……

Days like this never end.

None the next day.

Not even on the third day.

Later, she became more and more silent.

Sometimes Su Ming'an walked side by side with her, holding several wine bottles in her arms. Even though she would give him her usual smile, something seemed to have changed.

She travels frequently through the ages. Under the care of the gods, Su Mingan did not ask about the specific movements.

But she is indeed getting thinner and thinner, like a person suffering from a terminal disease - this terminal disease is called "human nature".

It was the negative emotions that came from all eras and the maliciousness of the overlapping shadows in the network of cause and effect that squeezed her to where she is now.

During breaks, she always locked herself in her room, not knowing what she was doing. Maybe he was crying under the quilt, or maybe he was just sitting quietly, like a piece of shriveled bread.
