dark color

Although it was roughly named "Red Stone", this kind of clear, slightly blood-colored crystal is really beautiful.Pelsona held them in his hands and watched them reflect the brilliance under the sun, as if they were emitting light themselves.

Who would have thought that such a beautiful stone contains countless lives and souls?

The black-haired man smiled slightly, raised his hand, and poured all the redstones into his mouth without hesitation.

Although it was just a counterfeit of the Philosopher's Stone, it was enough for him.Feeling a force began to mend his soul, Pelsona turned around with a smile and looked at Atobe with calm eyes.

"Aren't you surprised?"

"No, there's even a sense of 'it's supposed to be this way.'"

The young man smiled wryly, without hiding the complexity in his eyes, "You're not human, are you?"

Although this speculation had been faintly lingering in his mind from the very beginning, he did not expect this person to present the truth so simply before his eyes.Is it trust, or simply don't care?

There are so many things that this person is different from ordinary people, so many that they can no longer be explained by supernatural powers, but he never hides anything in front of him.So calmly, he spread everything out in the sun, to the point of cruelty.

So, he was the one who didn't dare to get to the bottom of it.This person's secret is like Pandora's box, once opened, it must be prepared forever-there is a huge difference between the two people, if such a difference is added to race, lifespan, time and fate Woolen cloth?Before everything is over, if the continuous guesswork will consume all his courage, then he would rather choose to focus on the present, which is the cunning unique to Keigo Atobe.

From the beginning, it was an all-or-nothing gamble.Pelsona is very familiar with this world, he is not an alchemist, but the reason why he needs redstone, his ability is beyond Alice's range, he pretends to turn a blind eye, then Pelsona will not take the initiative to mention .There are too many bargaining chips that belong to that man alone, and what he holds in his hands is only a small one. This is really—— Atobe smiled as usual, proud and sharp—the biggest gamble .

"Hey,"

Glid, who had been silent since just now, said suddenly, with the shock still in his eyes that hadn't subsided in time, "You're neither human nor artificial, you bastard, what the hell are you?"

"Oh? Are you more concerned about such issues than your own situation?"

"Hey, if I ask, will you answer? ... So, what do you want to do to me?"

Throwing this question perfunctorily, Glid put on a posture of letting others slaughter him, and said with a smile, "Kill all my subordinates, if you let me go, I will do my best to get revenge."

"So, from the very beginning, did you never think that you would leave alive?"

Pelsona smiled slightly, "Actually, I've been wondering for a long time, Glid, don't you think that as 'greedy', you take your subordinates too seriously?"

"Well, it's really ruthless to ask this question. That young man over there, do you want to consider betraying me?"

After receiving a blank stare, Glid turned his head and said nonchalantly, "Although I'm not a human being, but after living so long, if there's nothing to care about around me, it will be boring...greedy, It is such a thing that has endless desires, but can never be satisfied. No matter how many things are caught, what is left is nothing but emptiness. Rather than saying that I care, it is better to say that I "need" to care That's all. You guy, although the way you caught me is inexplicable, but I have nothing to be reconciled to, do you know the reason?"

Glid smiled, pointing to his heart, "This place of yours is much harder and colder than mine, and it's even more like a 'monster' than my artificial man. Live It's been a long time, and this is the first time I've seen a guy like you."

"A monster...?"

Pelsona curled up his lips, and smiled instead of anger at Atobe's worried eyes, "You're right, Glid. Maybe I've been wrong all along. Among all the artificial humans, You who seem to be the least ambitious, and who even leave you with weaknesses, are the smartest one."

"Haha, is that right, then I should be praised."

Accepting this evaluation without any hindrance, Glid laughed wantonly, "Although I almost guessed my ending, can you promise me a small request?"

"What do you think."

Pelsona remained calm.

"It's still so cautious at a time like this,"

Glid shook his head, "But I didn't intend to ask you to agree to any extraordinary request."

The man smiled, "When you kill me, burn my body clean, so as not to have to be rebuilt in the future... That man is indeed the one who can do these things. Life and death I'm tired of it so many times."

Without asking who "that man" is, Pelsona smiled slightly, "Then, as you wish."

############################################################################################################################################# He has refined himself to look like neither human nor ghost, and he is so downcast that he can't even find something to fill his stomach.Originally, as an alchemist, he wouldn't be able to do this at all, but this man was so stupid that he could use himself to refine it, so he had to be isolated from the crowd.

At this time, he was hugging a lump of invisible flesh and blood, his expression was crazy, but his tone was strangely gentle, "Nina, soon, soon Dad will resurrect you, be good, wait a little longer..."

Pelsona threw Glid at his feet, and the man was startled back a few steps.

"Hey, even if you won't get hurt, don't treat me like this."

Glid was lying on his back on the ground, and said somewhat helplessly.

"What are you going to do..."

Holding the things in his hands tightly, Taka's eyes were full of careful flattery and fear, and he said tremblingly, "Look, I don't have anything."

Atobe frowned, "You said, the chance for us to go back lies with this person?"

"Though I hate to admit it."

Pelsona said calmly, took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and put it in front of Taka, "This Liancheng formation, and this person,"

Pointing to Glid on the ground, "Complete it, and you will get the Philosopher's Stone."

"You need it, don't you?"

"Sage's Stone?"

Taka opened his eyes wide nervously, looked eagerly at Lian Chengzhen in front of him, and almost murmured, "Where is it, give it to me...give it to me!"

This always cowardly man actually stretched out his hand and grabbed Glid's collar tightly.

Glancing at the pattern on the paper, Glid smiled wryly, "I didn't expect you to know this... In the end, it's really not reconciled to become a test subject for this kind of person."

"So, as compensation, I promise you a painless death."

"Really? Well, I'm looking forward to it, hahahaha——"

################################## When Ed and a group of alchemists arrived, everything had already Near the end.

In the light of the grand alchemy, Glid stood still, and then began to spit out red stones.The man who also refined himself into a synthetic beast stood aside frantically, holding up the crystals without caring about the dirt, "The Philosopher's Stone! The Philosopher's Stone! Nina...Nina will be resurrected soon." !"

Ed opened his eyes wide, and clenched his lowered palms suddenly, "That's..."

"It's 'Redstone', a counterfeit of the Philosopher's Stone."

At the same time, the black-haired man rushed over and said decisively, "Gang, let me know. The alchemist of the red lotus, Pelsona, has definitely betrayed!" This exact same voice had spoken cruelly in a similar tone not long ago. if.The blond boy was in a daze for a second, then lowered his eyes and said expressionlessly, "Yes, Commander."

"Cough cough..."

Kneeling weakly on the ground, Glid coughed and spat out the last bit of redstone, "I said, it's alright, you're about to fulfill your promise."

Reaching out to pick up the remaining red stones, Pelsona smiled slightly, leaned down and whispered in Glider's ear, "Then, goodbye, artificial man."

"Hehe, even in the end, do you still have to bear this title? You bastard, how bad are you?"

Almost smiling, Glid opened his eyes and looked at the huge fire lotus that suddenly appeared in the air, "This fireworks is really..."

He stretched out his hand and slowly touched the bloody petals.

"Pelsona, I'm so, so satisfied with this way of dying."

Amid wild laughter, the man named Greed was reduced to ashes in an instant.

Roy looked solemnly at the flame that had almost burned everything, and murmured, "A flame like this...is indeed worthy of the title 'Red Lotus'."

It made him, who is called the Alchemist of Flame, start to tremble from the bottom of his heart.

"I didn't expect that you would collude with Taka. Pelsona, it's still too late to surrender."

Said formulaically, the man himself didn't believe it, such words would make Pelsona slightly shaken.As expected, Pelsona smiled slightly, but ignored his words.

Sighing imperceptibly, Roy raised his hand, "Get ready..."

"Wait a moment!"

However, his movement was interrupted.
