Endless Debt

The room was dark, without any light, but when Sere opened his eyes from the bed, he could still clearly identify the faces staring at him from the darkness.

In the past, when Se Lei glimpsed these faces, there was always uneasiness and anxiety hidden in his heart, and even some fear, like a child who had done something wrong and was being scrutinized by the eyes of adults.

But after the battle in the Land of Eternal Night, when the curse that had lasted for thousands of years was completely cut off, Sere seemed to have realized the value of life and atone for his sins.

Sere is no longer afraid of these eyes, he no longer blindly avoids them. On the contrary, Sere dares to meet these eyes, smiling and nodding to them, as if seeking their approval.

It's over, the bad days are over, and Sere is no longer the dirty, pitiful thing hiding in the darkness.

"Good morning!"

Sere stood up and greeted the portraits hanging on the wall.

"Good morning, Laurie!"

"Good morning, Hana!"

"Good morning, Amy!"

Sere dressed and washed, twirling around as if dancing, and kept saying hello at the same time.

Familiar and distant faces flashed back in front of Sere's eyes. He remembered everyone's name and every memory. These sad or happy memories pieced together Sere Vilelis' long life. .

Another face came into view, Sere said habitually.

"Good morning! Olivia."

The smile on Sere's face froze, while Olivia crossed her arms and looked at Sere with an indifferent expression.

After experiencing many incidents, the relationship between the two of them has eased a lot. However, after all, Olivia has held a grudge against Sere for decades. It is still difficult for the slow undead people to change so quickly. .

Olivia was no longer so hostile to Sere, but when she saw Sere, her psychological instinct could not help but show disdain.

"Hurry up, Bode is already waiting for you."

After Olivia finished speaking, she turned and walked outside. The hazy black gauze on her body swayed gently as she moved forward, like a dark cloud moving in the wind.

Sere stuck his head out, glanced at Olivia who disappeared at the end of the corridor, and then looked back at the clock hanging on the wall.

Olivia was right, we really had to hurry up, there was not much time left.

Serei quickly put on his clothes, tidied up his appearance, picked up the black umbrella placed at the door, and walked out quickly.

Although it has moved, the layout of the Immortal Club has not changed much. At least the room level where the members sleep is the same as usual.

The undead are often a group of nostalgic guys. If they wake up and find themselves sleeping in a strange and unfamiliar place, they will feel sad to a certain extent.

Walking out of the stairwell, the club's bar has undergone great changes. The most intuitive manifestation is that the space of the bar has become several times larger. Before, it was only enough for Sere to pole dance alone, but now it is enough to accommodate a dance group.

Sere doesn't like the changes here very much. It's a little too big, too empty, and makes people feel uneasy, but there's nothing they can do about it. Who asked them to move to such a ghost place?

"Are you ready?"

Olivia's voice sounded again, and she stood at the door, as if waiting for Sere on purpose.

"Are you okay...why, are you feeling nervous?"

Sere noticed Olivia's subtle emotions and asked with a smile.

"One thing," Olivia did not hide it, but said frankly, "This is the first time I have experienced such a thing. It is very strange and interesting."

Her voice gradually became lower, and suddenly, Olivia raised her head and stared at Sere.

"Why do you suddenly want to do this kind of thing? To spend a long boring life looking for some fun, or are you really showing kindness?"

"Well, I think...it's all the above factors."

Sere adjusted his tie, and after much hesitation, he explained in detail.

"I, we, the undead, really need to do something to pass this long life and pale years. If we can kill time and gain some value in life, don't you think it would be much better? "

Sere took a deep breath and sighed, "More importantly, everything is over, Olivia."

"Finish?"

"Yes, the devils have died, and sin has turned into virtue."

Sere pushed open the door of the club, and the slightly cold morning breeze came to face him, which made the remaining sleepiness on Sere's body fade away a lot.

The bright light made it difficult for him to open his eyes. After a short period of adaptation, Sere could see everything in front of him clearly.

It was a vast green field, and as the morning breeze blew, they rose and fell together, making sweet, rushing sounds.

"I spent a long time reflecting on what I did. I think the reason why I am so negative is that in addition to those necessary factors, I may also be pessimistic about the direction of the world."

Sere took a long breath, with a smile on his face.

In such an environment, Sere felt an inexplicable peace of mind, a sense of solidity that he had never experienced before. There were no more wars and killings, and no more nightmare pursuits, but only absolute tranquility... It was very gratifying. mad.

"Under the dark clouds of the devils, we all know that the future will be nothing but darkness, and we, the undead and cowards who are afraid of death, naturally still maintain that cowardly posture. Instead of struggling in vain, it is better to quietly sleep in our sleep. Waiting for destruction to come.

But now, everything is completely different. The dark clouds piling up on the world have disappeared, the sun is shining, and everything is sprouting.

Our future no longer points to the ultimate end, but has an infinite future. From this moment when the sky is clear, even lazy and degenerate people like us will become motivated to live hard. "

Olivia fell silent, and then she raised her head. The sky in the distance was blue and clear, but the sky near the Undead Club was covered with a layer of lingering clouds that stood for a long time.

This is the method of the undead. In order to facilitate the movement of Sere and Olivia nearby, this area is covered by continuous clouds, like a dark iron curtain covering the earth.

But unlike the dark Iron Curtain, this cloud is not that thick. The midday sun can often break through the clouds and fall down. Although that scene is very fatal to Sere, it also looks particularly beautiful. People often stop here. Admiring the beautiful scenery.

Stretching vigorously, Sere opened the black umbrella and covered himself in the shadow. Today was an important day. Even if there were clouds to protect him, he had to make sure that he would not be exposed to the sun.

Sere was not afraid of being sunburned to death, he was just afraid that others would see his body burning.

The black umbrella cast a shadow, Sere stepped onto the green field and walked not far away. Olivia looked at his back and murmured.

"What is this, the philosophical thinking of the immortal?"

“It’s a great chapter to start a new life.”

Serei waved his hand without looking back and walked towards the hillside not far away.

Olivia chased after Sere, the hazy black gauze on her body blocking all the light for her.

As the two walked out of the Immortal Club, the full picture of the Immortal Club was gradually revealed. It was no longer the dark bar in the alley, but a huge castle standing along the cliff by the sea.

Olivia remembered that this castle originally belonged to the Kogadel royal family, but with the collapse of the Pillar of Royal Power, the Kogadel Empire began to split and collapse. The Undead Club integrated with the castle, and the undead people naturally The earth took over everything here.

Looking into the distance down the hillside, a town is located not far from the castle. Although the location is remote and remote, it was still hit by flesh and blood at the moment when the country of jelly broke out.

After more than a year of post-disaster reconstruction, the town has barely recovered, but the collapsed masonry can be rebuilt, but the dead cannot be resurrected.

What happened in this small town was just a small microcosm of the Kogadel Empire after the disaster. Similar things happened across the empire.

According to the latest reports, the division of the various provinces of the Kogadel Empire is a foregone conclusion. They may be broken into city-states one after another like the narrow countries, or they may maintain certain alliances like the Rhine League. relation.

No matter how hard everyone works, this kind of agenda involving thousands of people is still very slow to advance. At least for a few years, everything has not been finalized.

Olivia didn't care much about this kind of thing. For others, the collapse and division of the Kogadel Empire was extremely shocking news, but Olivia had already witnessed the destruction of an empire.

This is probably the advantage of the undead. In their long lives, they have witnessed too many events that could change the direction of history.

In addition to the division of the empire, post-disaster reconstruction work is still in progress. Surprisingly, it is the Bureau of Order that is carrying out these tasks.

With the connection between the extraordinary world and the mortal world, the Sublime People no longer had to hide from the eyes of the world, so a large number of Sublime People were sent to the post-disaster land.

This time they came not for war, but for hope.

As for now, Sere also pins his future on some hope.

"Hey, Bode, haven't they arrived yet?"

Sere came to the roadside. Bode had been waiting here for a long time. Like the Condensers, Bode no longer concealed his figure and completely exposed the skeleton posture.

However, Bode still had some concerns, so he made some fancy decorations for himself, such as filling the hollow ribs with flowers, so that the entire skeleton seemed to be filled with flowers.

"Almost there."

Bode stretched out his hand and pointed to a small bus that was slowly approaching on the small road not far away.

"You look a little nervous." Bode looked at Sere.

"Of course, how can you not be nervous about something like this?"

Sere took deep breaths repeatedly, "As an undead, I have indeed experienced many things, but in this kind of thing, I really don't have much experience... Look at Olivia, you will feel that my education Is it considered a success?”

Bode looked back at Olivia, who was walking towards here, and he underestimated, "At least her mother's education was very successful. As for you? I can only say that you deserve it."

"Yes, yes," Seretian said shamelessly, "It's really an exciting life."

Bode nodded and waited patiently, "It is indeed worth looking forward to."

"This was once the Hall of Valor where Samuel prepared for war. It was once a hiding place for countless desperadoes and a refuge for cowards..."

Bode murmured, "Its past history is always full of sin and blood, but now, we will wash away these shames with hope."

"Haha, come on, how should I call you in the future, Bode," Serre asked in confusion, "Dean Bode?"

"I don't care about this kind of thing, but you, Serre."

Bode's tone became tougher, "After the orphanage is put into operation, you'd better take care of yourself, don't drink too much, and don't bring back some inexplicable people."

"Of course, of course, am I a person with such poor self-control and likes to indulge in pleasure?"

"Isn't it?"

"Huh? You are discriminating against me!"

Amid the quarrel, Olivia came to the two of them, and the minibus just drove over and stopped on the side of the road.

The door opened, and the first to appear was a green parrot. After circling over Bode's head for a few times, it landed steadily on Bode's head.

"We've arrived!"

Vell's cheerful voice sounded. Compared to a goldfish, being a parrot is much more comfortable for it.

Inside the bus, a group of children sneaked their heads out and looked at the strange people who greeted them anxiously. They were all children who lost their families and homes in the disaster of the country of solidified pulp.

Sere held a black umbrella, with a smile on his face, and said loudly.

"Everyone, welcome to the undead... Oh! Samuel and Saizong's loving home!"

Sere and his friends decided to use this way to commemorate their original boss and friends.
