I, Unlimited Stream, European Emperor

【Melting together——】

[You have obtained [substitute]]

The moment the message came, a black and white snake coiled around his arm, and his icy pupils swept around.

"Snake?"

"No, this snake has a problem with its body."

Dio's eyes fell on the left and right sides of the snake's body and the throat, and he said firmly, "It's the limbs, and the protruding throat of this substitute must have some other meaning."

"It's a fruit."

Raising his right hand, as if stroking the black and white snake's throat, Su Mo squinted his eyes and said softly: "There is no fruit in it now, and the snake has no limbs either."

"Because God... cut off the limbs of the snake, and man... ate the fruit of the snake."

"...my substitute, the Serpent of Eden."

Serpent of Eden.

Hearing this name, Dio raised his head slightly, and said softly, "Is it that stupid snake that tricked humans into swallowing apples and created ethics?"

"Limbs were chopped off, apples were eaten, Pucci... are you hating gods and people?"

"Perhaps, not being able to see the gods makes me jealous and cruel like hell, watching the sins of ignorant human beings, and makes me angry. My substitute is the resentment and regret in my heart, the regret of being abandoned by God , the resentment implicated by human ignorance."

"Do you... want to return to heaven?"

"It looks like it is."

Su Mo caressed the black and white snake, but he understood in his heart that the meaning of this double was not just religious. It was derived from the white snake born of Father Puqi's theological belief and the black snake born of Su Mo's own spiritual outlook. It is a combination, and the limbs that have not grown represent the evil of the snake. When the limbs grow, it is a dragon.

It represents a strong life.

The protruding bulge of the snake's throat is Father Pucci's hatred for the moral and ethical shackles that the wisdom produced by human beings has given to all human beings.

Represents the forbidden wisdom.

"Do you need to test the ability of the stand-in? Pucci—"

"I have some guesses, it seems that I need to go out for a walk."

"Do you want to leave here?"

"Exactly."

Looking at the blond vampire, Su Mo said calmly, "I don't intend to hurt innocent people. If people who are malicious to me, or who have already been infected with pitch black, punish or punish them, it is just to let them go. .”

"But there are still many human beings who are on their way to heaven. Only those who deviate from their own way are suitable as my test subjects."

"Where is your target?"

"Great Prison, Hoenessmann's Great Prison."

"...Then, take the [Arrow] in your hand, Pucci."

The vampire's voice carried a hint of a smile, "Go and gather for me some courtiers who have not deviated from their own ways and are willing to serve Dior."

"The people Granny Enya recruited were all too inferior. What I need is not just an obedient dog, but also a greedy and ferocious wolf who can crawl under my feet and become my guardian." Tigers and lions."

"…I understand."

Su Mo nodded, looked at Dio, and said softly, "Then, I wish you prosperity, Dio."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left the dark room. After he left, Vanilla Ace walked out slowly through a gap in the dark space, knelt at Dio's feet, and said softly: "Lord Dior, is that priest worthy of such trust?"

"...Vanilla Ace, do you believe that [gravity] exists between human beings?"

gravitational?

Listening to the vampire's question, the man fell into deep thought, "What do you mean, fate?"

"Yes and no."

"Fate is just a general explanation. A more appropriate term is the gravitational force between doubles."

"In this world, only the substitute can defeat the substitute, and the substitute messengers can attract each other. From the performance mode of the substitute, one can read a person's heart."

"Just as you yearn for the darkness where I am, you are willing to cover everything in darkness and crawl under my feet. Puqi's substitute is the dissatisfaction with all human beings and the hatred of gods."

"In religious terms, vampires are creatures cursed by gods, and they tricked humans into swallowing apples, and the snakes whose limbs were cut off by gods are also cursed by gods."

"I can faintly feel that there is something important in him that I need. My substitute seems to be telling me that I must trust that man."

He sat on the edge of the bed, dipped his finger in the blood of the dead woman on the bed, put it into his lips, felt the sweet taste, and slowly showed a happy smile.

"On the surface, a person who is devout to the priesthood of God, but deep down is a rebel who hates the gods. The cause and effect in this world is really interesting."

"I can't help but look forward to seeing him looking up to heaven in the dark after he deviates from his own way. It's really a very pleasant picture."

"...I hope he can bring you a little joy, Lord Dior."

"Before tasting his blood, there is one thing, go and investigate for me, Vanilla Ace."

Dio stared at his loyal subordinates, and slowly said:

"I can feel that due to the influence of this body, some guys who inherited his blood began to become restless."
