American comics start with Zha Kang’s apprentice

What happens when reason is replaced by passion for freedom?

Mazekin thought he had found a good answer. Because she knows the true identity of the First Fallen. After all, the First Fallen is not a being like Lucifer who always hides his own intentions. He is very arrogant and arrogant.

In mortal terms, the First Fallen is an idealist. He was still very passionate, and he never hesitated to tell those demons about his dream of going to heaven.

The First Fallen never hesitated to talk about his noble origins.

God’s sanity.

Mazekin had to admit that the First Fallen's management of hell was more organized and more rule-abiding than Lucifer's, and he was simply meticulous.

That guy was even more disciplined than the Lord of Order, almost to the point of obsessive-compulsive disorder. And what about Lucifer?

He is more like an artist. He can make hell look more characteristic of hell. He can let the group of demons find the goals they strive for, and then watch them happily devote themselves to those "causes".

Lucifer doesn't care about the so-called order at all, because he has no opponents and no demons to punish and sanction him.

The opposition between the two caused the First Fallen to leave temporarily. He saw that Lucifer would not go to heaven with him again. The nature of their thoughts was completely different.

Lucifer wants absolute freedom, while the First Fall wants to restore the absolute order among creations.

But now, the First Fallen has opened its arms to free will.

"What are we waiting here for? Waiting for the puppet doll created by the Olympus gods to return again?" Mazekin asked coldly, "Tell me everything you know! I am not your pawn!"

"Oh, of course, Ms. Mazekin. Of course you are not my pawn. The same goes for your mother, the mother of all monsters, Lilith." The First Fallen pulled a high stool and sat on it. He leaned on it. The edge of the gray bar, and then stared out the window at the devastated ruins of New York with those golden eyes.

After a long while, the First Fallen spoke again, "If you swear allegiance to Chen Yu, then you have to wait. Even if your blind brother Briadach was in your position, he would do the same."

Mazekin was stunned for a moment. She looked at the First Fallen who suddenly became very serious and was filled with doubts. Mazekin does not think that the First Fallen's mention of briadach is an accident; there is something in his words.

In order to avenge the City of Silver and lead Lilim to find a new Garden of Eden, Briadach exchanged his eyes and health for the pair of cursed eyes that can see life and death.

The briadach saw the future, saw an ending, he may have seen more, but he is dead now.

briadach: Is he...really dead? If this is all true, did he leave anything behind?

"Doubt is a good catalyst, Ms. Mazekin." The First Fallen still looked out the window, "What's interesting is whether all the possibilities you think about can come true? If we are all possibilities born in God's thoughts, So...what is it that exists in our thoughts?”

"With these words alone, I can directly judge you, First Fallen." Solomon suddenly said with his hands in his pockets, "You are creating an existential trap to blaspheme the divinity of the Creator, and you were once the reason of God. , you are even denying yourself.”

"Shut up, Solomon!" Mazekin shouted angrily. She took a step towards the First Fallen and clenched her fists threateningly, "What are we waiting for? First Fallen, I need an answer! If You are not a minion of Lilith, then tell me the truth! Who is manipulating all this? Who created this place? What is John Constantine doing? What is the Nirvana mentioned by Etrigen? Lily Si once controlled Nirvana! She also spied on God's consciousness! She knows almost everything, how could she not discover this so-called flash point? She..."

Mazekin suddenly froze, as if she had found part of the answer to the puzzle in a flash of lightning.

What if Lilith is in Flashpoint too? What if she too was just an arrogant moth caught in a trap?

Mazekin couldn't help but raise her head. She looked above the darkness and saw a spider web on the broken ceiling.

"Whose chess piece are we?" Mazekin already knew the answer when he asked this question.

The First Fallen laughed again, and he pointed upward, "I have seen many madmen, and those mortals, without exception, believed the lies they made up. Because that would prevent them from falling into the abyss of pain. , that would give them some illusion that they would not fall into hell. But there are still some people, like Constantine, who believe that their lies are a ruse to make a bigger lie work. A seamless self-deception, he does not hesitate to involve the entire universe, sticking himself to the web he has woven, and letting the enemies jump out one by one!"

"Can he really do this?" Mazekin asked still in disbelief. "He at least needs to deceive one person before he succeeds."

"What if he knows what that person desires?" The First Fallen revealed his fangs in a sinister smile, "What if he could give that person a hope of success? That would be enough to attract that person's attention, and make him It ignores the true intent behind it.”

"He is just a... mortal." Mazekin finally sighed.

"That's why I said...is there any difference between our thoughts and God's thoughts?" The First Fallen asked seriously, "What is...existence?"

……

"Do you really think that such a threat can make me give up this bet and end everything?" Lucifer looked at Isabella calmly with his hands in his pockets, "The gift Chen gave you is indeed very powerful, but there The rules only apply to Jehovah's creation, and this is my creation. The 'touchstone' cannot enter unless..."

"Unless it has a host, and that host enters your universe." Isabella's hand holding the cigarette butt was trembling slightly, and there was already a line of sweat on her forehead. Her face was pale, facing the road. Xifa, she could only hold on.

The expression on Lucifer's face did not change, but he still tilted his head, as if observing the people who were introduced to the castle by John.

"An interesting card..." Lucifer shrugged and said calmly, "No wonder 'Touchstone' asked me to pay attention to the Fool, the Tower and the Magician when he was doing divination for me. You are two of the cards that made me unexpectedly successful. , This is indeed a good skill, but I can directly destroy the 'Touchstone', and they will not be able to make waves here. I can also temporarily close all the doors and wait for you...ah, that's it."

Lucifer rarely raised his eyebrows, and he nodded approvingly, "You want me to deny the rules I set, and when I break my promise and start screening people who enter the new world, I will become my father. , and faith is born out of fear. A contradiction, a trap. But this is still not all your trump cards, and if I want to find out those trump cards, I must become a stone on the chessboard I set. Chess piece, re-entering my father's creation."

Lucifer finally raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "Chen... you are really a terrible opponent."
