I'll retire when I'm done

"That, Shier..."

"what?"

Fu Heisher, who majestically occupied a corner of the major general's office, was lying on the sofa in her room with his long legs bent. When Bai Hong spoke, he didn't even lift his eyelids.

Although Fu Heisher seriously said, "Don't bother with me and treat me as a transparent person", but this man's sense of existence is too strong to be completely ignored. Even if Er doesn't speak or make a sound, it's always easy for Bai Hong to look at him if he stays there.

The major general clicked his tongue, and finally put down the document in his hand to cover up his sight.

"Should it be my illusion? It feels like Lin Taro and you are staring at me very closely recently?"

Fu Heisher casually covered his face with a newspaper: "It doesn't matter, it's fine anyway, you're better than those weird-looking people outside."

Bai Hong tilted his head.

"Since there is nothing wrong, why do you look at me so closely? Isn't it even more strange?"

The war on Everdark Isle has come to an end, and the game between countries has already moved to the negotiating table. When the theme is expanded to the huge and illusory theme of the future of mankind, there will be too much nonsense to talk about. It's over - the initial running-in stage has passed, and now it's all kinds of boring waste of time, and it doesn't have much to do with Baihong. She herself said that this kind of meeting can tell her the progress regularly, and there is nothing to report in detail of.

On the other hand, Changan Island received an order to "wait for an opportunity." As for when this opportunity will be, it will naturally be determined by the first commander on the island.

According to the original plan, at this time, Baihong should start training the new army to prepare for the next step of the Abyss plan, but for three consecutive days, let alone go outside to carry out actual combat training, she can't even go to Youyun and Asuka now. Can't touch it.

It is not so much supervision as it is a sudden excessive desire to protect.

"Shen Er's words can barely be understood, why even Rin Taro has a look of being irritated..."

Fu Heisher pulled the newspaper away from his face, revealing a pair of gloomy eyes.

"I'm your brother, why am I the one who 'barely' understands..."

Bai Hong answered without hesitation: "Because Shi Er is a scumbag, I also thought about it before. If I die, you will probably only mourn for me and there will be no salary card for next month's salary."

Fu Heisher really thought about it seriously: "I left such an impression on you?"

Bai Hong glanced at him quietly: "...Don't tell me just now the impression in your mind that you are a good brother."

"That's not it."

Fuheshier replied dully.

——It was clear from the beginning that he was not a good brother.

Back then, I chose to agree to the man named Mori Ogai and send her away at a price of 500 million, largely because of my disgust with the Gojo family.

Stay away from the rubbish dump like the magic world, and stay away from the rubbish like yourself.

The boy back then didn't express his expectations, and it's impossible to tell this person now.

He is not good at raising children.

Whether it is family love or pity, Fu Heisher was born without these things, because he has never owned them, so he can't even imagine what it's like, and it's even more impossible to give similar emotions to others; and The birth mother sent the child to her that day, which was probably the only good thing that woman did.

——Such a strange and wonderful beautiful child... was born under curse and despair, was not blessed by anyone, was not loved by anyone, grew wantonly in this filthy courtyard, and finally became more dazzling than anyone else child.

"Brother"

—— even.

Wrapped in brocade clothes and jade clothes, the poor child who looked paler and weaker came to him.

Share food with him, share affection with him, share curses with him.

...and then, was taken away.

If they are taken away by the military, even those in the world of conjuration with eyes higher than the top will be unable to reach out—as for the six-eyed kid, no matter how unwilling and impossible to use his privileges to find a small pet... At that time, whether this girl becomes an ordinary soldier, or finds an ordinary person to marry and have children, at least what awaits her is a new world, and she can also feel the freedom she has never experienced before.

Nothing could be worse than being in the magic world.

And not long after, Fu Heisher thought again, even if a guy like himself has experienced happiness, then that child will never be worse than himself.

This man has imagined Baihong's future sincerely, ordinary, dazzling, and enviable.

After all, it is a future that has nothing to do with oneself.

Then Fuheshier landed on Everdark Isle.

"That ring..." He suddenly opened his mouth and brought up another topic. Bai Hong glanced at him, but saw his brother lying on the sofa with blank eyes, as if thinking of something, he asked casually: "Is it for you?" Did it bother you?"

After all, if it wasn't for that, she wouldn't "die".

"Sooner or later." Bai Hong replied, "But it doesn't matter now."

That very special soul imprint cannot be removed without death.

"The other side should have already noticed the fact that I'm 'dead'." Bai Hong replied casually: "So there's nothing else to do, I can probably be quiet for a while."

The combination of the sky and the curse in this life and the original fire in the previous life accidentally created this immortal body that can be resurrected infinitely. No one would believe this kind of thing.

"However, the current words... are not so much troubles as they are new conjectures."

Bai Hong folded his fingers, glanced at the lonely Dark Moon ring on the table, thoughtfully.

It's not hard to guess the timing of Gwendolin's appearance. After all, he is also the second son of the god king Gwen. No matter how demeaning he is, he can't hide the fact that he is a god. common type.

Since people in this world can call their own souls, it is not impossible for Gwendolin to detect the opening and follow his breath.

The barrier between the two worlds made it impossible for Gwyndolin to find him in person, so he must have found someone to try to find himself through a soul connection, as if he had entrusted Shire... But it is common sense that people do not exist and die. The possibility of resurrection, as long as Gwyndolin is dealt with next, then there will be no worries.

There were quite a few monsters crawling out of the abyss, some of which were living corpses in knight armor from her real hometown, the capital of the land of the gods, Anor Londo.

Bai Hong failed to descend into the lower layer of the abyss these few times, and she did not gain the ability to walk in the abyss, but when the fire was ignited last time, what those eyes saw gave her new inspiration.

Bai Hong's fingers lightly touched the ends of his eyes.

If the guess about these eyes is not wrong, then maybe he can gain the ability to walk in the abyss without signing an oath with the monsters of the abyss, but if he wants to do something of that level, I am afraid that even he will have to pay a little bit. cost--

But well...

This level is acceptable.

"I need to go to the abyss again."

"No." Fu Heisher replied without hesitation.

"Why are you answering so quickly?"

Bai Hong smiled and said, "I won't listen to you."

Fuhesher: "..."

"If you can get out, you can."

"Eh--"

Bai Hong drew a long tail slowly, "Brother is very confident in his own strength."

"The strength of your body is below mine, there is no reason why I can't see you."

The young major general raised the corners of his mouth and smiled meaningfully.

"Not necessarily."

Bai Hong met his brother's slightly dissatisfied gaze, and asked in a good-tempered manner: "Have you ever been chased by light?"

Fu Hesher: "?"

Bai Hong smiled extraordinarily brightly.

——The technique of her skipping class was taught by her teacher, Huang Yuan himself.

...the kind that he couldn't even catch himself.

Fu Heisher was aroused by her smile with unprecedented vigilance, and stared at Bai Hong with [-] points of caution, and even put aside the previous suspicion and teamed up with Mori Owai to mark people, but she calmed down obediently After two or three days, at the critical moment when the two of them were exhausted, with just a blink of an eye, Miss Major General couldn't even see a hair of her head.

A piece of paper swirled and fluttered down above the empty table. Fu Heisher grabbed the paper with a cold face, and wrote a sentence on it:

"I'll go out and play for a while and I'll be back soon—(*￣▽￣)y"

The major general was obviously in a good mood, and Yu Xing drew a facial expression at the end.

Fuhesher: "..."

Fu Heisher: "How did you raise her in the past few years on the island, and how did you raise her temper worse than mine!?"

Mori Ogai: "... Heh, each other." The adjutant who has been tortured for the past two days rubbed his brows wearily: "But didn't the major general take you with him last time? If you can remember the way—— "

Fu Heisher smiled bluntly: "I'm so sorry, I didn't remember the way."

There wasn't even a landmark building in that ghostly place, and he didn't know how his own little waste could locate it accurately, so he just looked for it.

... She better not get too loud.

Fu Hesher thought through gritted teeth.

——When the time comes, even if he uses one, he will kidnap her from this damn place! ! !

***

"Ah!"

Bai Hong sneezed.

"Who scolded me."

She muttered casually, and continued to pace lightly in the sea of ​​moonlight flowers. She didn't hold any weapons, and the clothes she was wearing were nothing more than a daily-style light shirt that couldn't hide anything. The ring, other than that, was empty.

The abyss is close at hand, but she has no interest in jumping for the time being.

Bai Hong raised his head to look at the cold moon above his head against the galaxy, and casually threw out the dark moon ring in his hand.

Whether it was the too bright moonlight flower sea, or the only moonlight above the head, it was just a coincidence at that time——

As it turned out, it was no coincidence.

——This is the scene created by the power of the Shadow Sun Gwyndolin.

I should have guessed it earlier, Bai Hong thought with a blank face.

The moment you see the knight in the armor of Anor Londe, you should react. This is not a simple abyss. Strictly speaking, it is more like a gap caused by the friction between the two worlds. It was the world she used to be.

The reason why it became like this is precisely because Arnoel Londe has already fallen and lost its former glory.

The demise of the Age of Fire was expected. God King Gwen forcibly opened the fire transmission system by himself, and continued the rule of the gods at the cost of burning souls. Today, Baihong realizes that the abyss has swallowed Arnoel Londe Not too surprised.

Sooner or later, the only thing that was a bit unexpected was Gwendolin's choice.

It was just because Baihong had left his aura in an inconspicuous place on the other side of the ocean before, the young and ignorant God followed him without hesitation. She staggered a perfect space gap, trying to link the soul across the ocean, but she didn't notice that she stayed under her nose for many years.

This is the legendary dark under the lamp.

Bai Hong touched his chin.

Gwyndolin's seriousness this time...may have exceeded her previous estimate.

"Yeah... it's true."

She sighed with emotion in a low voice, "It's just a lack of a fire spreader, just grab one at random, what are you going to do with me?"

Even though he muttered like this, Bai Hong broke off the branch casually, and drew the very familiar dark moon emblem on the ground. On the crescent moon, the long sword crossed. She pondered for a moment, but still didn't read out the previous oath.

For the shadow of the Sun King Gwen, for the sharp blade of conquering the evil gods and enemies——

Bai Hong suddenly showed a mocking expression that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.

Isn't the biggest and most rebellious god-rebel in Anor Londo herself?

"...So I really can't understand the reason for taking me back, Gwendolin."

She raised her head, staring at the illusory and light figure of the dark moon god who came from the moonlight at some time, and realized that the god who had been rekindled from the first fire had finally returned to this place. Stretching out his pale and weak arms, trying to touch his former knight——

It is the shadow of the Sun King Gwen, the sharp blade for conquering the evil gods and enemies——

It was not just a simple dark moon oath, but also the evaluation given to her by God King Ge Wen.

——Glory bestowed on the most trusted vassal of God King Gwyndolin, the last and only prince who resides in Anor Londe.

When the god king Gwen is far away from the throne, the eldest brother is expelled, the eldest sister is married away, and the never-imagined shadow is about to cover Arnoel Londe, and the gods will also be reduced to slaughtered lambs.

The throne is empty, the fire is in turmoil, and the princes from all over the world are ready to move. When the greedy blade wants to swing at the capital city of the gods who swore allegiance in the past, the last young prince holds the pale palm of the only remaining weak god in the gods, step by step. , led him to the only throne.

Your Highness, please don't be afraid.

On the side of the throne, the gorgeous cloak with the dark moon oath embroidered with silver thread on her shoulders fell silently, covering a lightless shadow for the shadowy sun.

It's not over yet.

As she promised so, she stood calmly one step away from the throne.

Receive the royal decree personally, act as regent for the king, stand beside the throne in the twilight of the gods, and rule the continent of Rhodeland with unprecedented power and iron blood—that is, except for the young Dark Moon God, who dares to The cold-blooded tyrant who offends and snoops will be executed directly. Everything he does is to continue the glory of Anor Londo. The shadow under the sun has been regent for 800 years.

Destroy an army for the safety of a city;

Destroy a city for the peace of a nation;

Destroying countless nations for the future of a world—

If you hinder the ruler, the gods can also be killed.

Gwyndolin once put his blade of piety on her shoulders, and with the shadow oath knight who guarded the royal city, he gave her all the trust of the gods and all his weak and personal feelings.

Back then, she had never been called this name——

【——】

Gwyndolin opened her mouth, but couldn't call out her name, her face became more and more desperate and painful, but she couldn't get the slightest pity for her once a knight.

Bai Hong looked at his hesitant and aggrieved expression indifferently, but finally opened his mouth.

"If you don't know what it's called, just call me Baihong."

...should have guessed it earlier.

Gwyndolin flinched a little, but she was not willing to give in just like that.

This person in front of him is more decisive, crueler than anyone, and ruthless than anyone—before leaving Anor Londo, he destroyed all traces of his past existence, and he was not allowed to leave even a name.

The only one she swears allegiance to is her father, God King Gwen, and she has known it for a long time.

Bai Hong looked at him with a half-smile.

"So what if you don't want to scream, Your Highness."

The young major general sat on a boulder, with her legs crossed comfortably, standing in the middle of the sea of ​​moonlight flowers and staring at the living corpses. Dichotomous leisurely:

"Let's not talk about whether Anor Londe is worth saving... just take a step back, the things I agreed with your father, King Gwen, have been fulfilled—whether it is to let Anor Londe continue to exist, It is better to find him a salary king to continue the first fire, I have already done it, it is useless for you to find me, the remnant soul of the fire that has been burned once, why waste your energy here."

I have nowhere to go, and there is no one to trust in Anor Londo.

Dark Moon's weak deity spoke in a low tone, with a hint of sadness and prayer.

... My father, God Wang Gewen, has died.

"I know." Bai Hong said lightly, "I killed it."

……

——! ? ? ?

Gwyndolin's previous grievances had not had time to dissipate in the future, and he was shocked by this sudden fact.

—Do you know what you're talking about! ? ? ?

Bai Hong smiled, and answered casually: "Oh, don't you know, my little highness? Back then, King Gewen used his own soul as a firewood to devote himself to the first fire to continue the burning of the fire. This move was indeed great—it's just a pity that he After his soul is burnt out, the rest of his body is nothing more than a fragile living corpse, releasing that kind of 'thing' will only tarnish the prestige of God."

"So I killed it."

The former regent spoke without hesitation, and there was no trace of nostalgia in his eyes.

"Please don't look at me like that, I'm just fulfilling my 'duty' as a courtier."

If it is the gods who pollute the prestige of the gods, how should they choose?

She has already given her own answer.

"That's why I can't understand what you're doing to find me now, Your Highness." Bai Hong sighed lightly: "I already know what the real content of Chuanhuo is, it's worthless, meaningless, completely—all— — I don’t know why I’m still going on.”

"Even if you don't miss those old friendships, you and I have already been in two worlds. From my current point of view, what you are doing at this moment is completely an invasion."

"No matter what, I'm also the major general of this country today. Logically speaking, I shouldn't let you go."

Gwyndolin stared blankly at Bai Hong, as if he could not understand, but also seemed unwilling to understand.

...Do you want, kill me?

Facing Gwendolin's astonished expression, Bai Hong's tone softened slightly.

"Don't you understand, Your Highness?"

When she spoke to Gwyndolin, her tone could even be called soft-spoken, gentle and considerate.

"Your and my personal affair is limited to the scope of Arnoel Londe - now I have a reason to kill you, but you have no reason not to let me do it."

"But everything is negotiable... don't you think?"

Bai Hong lowered his brows and smiled slightly, but the smile was cold and did not catch his eyes.

"Let's talk, Your Highness... Let's just ignore your offensive actions for the sake of the past, whether the soul imprint invades this world or concludes a contract, we don't care about it for now, just come Let's talk about the things that are close at hand-"

Bai Hong leaned slightly, his tone extremely gentle.

"Why do you tell me not to kill you?"

You bear the first fire, the last glory of Anor Londo.

"so what?"

Bai Hong's face was indifferent: "Pull me back and burn it again?"

The God of Dark Moon remained silent, holding out the golden crown from the moonlight, he met Bai Hong's cold gaze, and whispered docilely.

Not the position of salary king.

It is the position of the king of gods.

—— Please come back, we will treat you as king.
