Superpower manga artist Kobayashi Narumi

Goodbye Arthur.

The figure turned around.

He wore a hood, a few strands of his beautiful blond hair were visible, and his blue eyes were hidden in shadows.

He noticed Salem and showed a very surprised expression.

He took off his shoes shortly, and ran towards Salem with bare feet.

"Seren!" Arthur was very fast, almost running in front of Seren in the blink of an eye.

"Arthur..."

Salem was about to express his surprise at seeing his own son, but Arthur grabbed his wrist with a serious face, "Why are you standing here? The sea is at high tide and it's very dangerous."

When Salem lowered his head, he found that he was standing in the sea, his trouser legs were wet, and the sea water had already covered his calf.

This underworld sea still has fantastic colors, snow-white sandy beaches, orange sea water, and purple foam floating on the sea surface.It's kind of like soda with coloring.

Arthur pulled him to run, and they walked out to safety.

"This place is relatively high, and the tide can't rise up." Arthur sat Seren down, took off his soaked shoes, and took out a towel to help him wipe his feet.

"You can also get sick in the underworld. Be careful to keep warm."

Salem sat on a rock with her legs crossed.He heard Arthur's mother's concern again.

Arthur's impression of him was still that of a weak and pure human being, and Salem didn't want to explain, and enjoyed the care happily.

Their location is a great vantage point to see the sunset over the sea.The bright light shines on the sea, mixing more magnificent colors.

After Seren was properly taken care of, the two sat side by side on the stone to watch the sunset.Only then did Arthur remember to ask, "Siren, what happened, why did you come to the world of the dead so early..."

"You are so dull," Sairon said in a coquettish tone, "haven't you noticed that I don't have the spirit of death?"

After hearing what Salem said, Arthur only noticed it.

He suddenly realized: "So you are not dead yet?"

"You can guess it." This was beyond Salem's expectation.

It should be a secret that the living have a way to enter the world of the dead. I didn't expect Arthur to know this. It seems that he is doing well in the underworld.

"Hey, I know a lot of things." Arthur scratched his head, his smile was the same as before, without haze.

"Are you and Meddy all right now?" Arthur asked.

"It's not good," Salem said, briefly recounting their experience to Arthur. "She misses you so much, because thinking of you makes her a crybaby."

"Time is urgent, and the time I can come here is very limited." Salem's tone became serious, and he wanted to tell Arthur the most important thing, "Meddy and I are determined to resurrect you. You protect yourself here , wait quietly, don’t worry about anything else.”

After hearing this, Arthur was silent for a long time.

He didn't question whether Salem could really do it, just said, "No need."

"I won't hurt innocent people..." Salem emphasized.

"I'm not worried about that," Arthur smiled, "I trust you and Meddy, you won't indiscriminately hurt innocent people."

"It's just that I think there's nothing wrong with dying. Even though the world is a bit cruel, there are still kind people who stick to the bottom line. The brilliance of humanity shines brighter in hell."

"When you go back, comfort Meddy and tell her that I'm doing well now, and I've met a reliable companion..."

Arthur was very lucky, he met a kind captain soon after his death, and was accepted as a member of the fleet.That was the largest fleet in the entire underworld. He worked as a cook on board and did not encounter any danger.And because it cooks deliciously, it is loved by partners.

Lin Chengshi sighed in his heart, as expected of the hero, even if he failed at the beginning, he could still twist the script into "Sea King".

But Salem wouldn't listen to him.The resurrection of Arthur is the main line of the comics, and it is impossible to waste all previous efforts here.

I can only interrupt and muddle through.

"It's broken!" Salem stood up abruptly.

"What's wrong?" Arthur subconsciously wrapped his arms around his shoulders, showing a protective gesture.

"It's almost time for me to go back, but I have to go back through the entrance I came in just now..." Salem stretched his head to look at the sea, and the tide had already risen several meters.

The strange door opened on the beach just now, but now it has reached the sea.

Worrying about what would come, the door began to twist, which was a sign that it was about to close.

"Don't be afraid." Although Arthur couldn't see the door, he was always so reliable.He easily hugged Salem and started running fast.

He was obviously familiar with the environment here, and soon found a small boat on the shore, like a kayak in the real world.

Regardless of the rough sea, he resolutely drove it to take Salem out to sea.

"Hurry up!" Arthur warned, "Which way are you going, show me!"

"Over there!" Salem pointed in the direction of the "door".

Arthur deftly adjusted the direction with the oar, and rowed there with all his strength.

At this time, Arthur was still thinking about comforting Salem: "It doesn't matter if you can't go back, the body of a living person will not age in the underworld, and I will always help you find a way to return to the world."

"It seems that you know a lot of things." Despite the wind and rain, Salem said meaningfully.

Of course Lin Chengshi knew about this setting, but he didn't expect that Arthur would know it not long after his death.Should it be said that he is the real hero?

The "door" was just ahead, and when it was about to arrive——

A huge wave rushed over, carrying the power to engulf everything, and slapped a flat boat in the sea!

Facing the huge monster, Arthur's green eyes were silent.

He raised a hand lightly.

The golden-red flame was like an unquenchable scorching sun, forming a barrier between them and the huge waves, daring to confront the sea.

All the seawater that touched the barrier evaporated, and a large amount of white water vapor permeated wildly, creating a spectacle like Moses dividing the sea among the waves.

As expected of the hero.You can also level up and become stronger by changing the map.

In this dangerous situation, Salem can still enjoy the scene in front of him calmly, after all, he has a file loading cheat.

It's like a ticking time bomb is always defused in the last few seconds.At the last moment when the "gate" was about to close, the rickety boat went straight through the "gate"!

"Is it this way?" Arthur asked, hearing no response.

When he turned his head to look at Salem, he saw a seagull that had slipped onto the boat at some point, tilted its head, and let out a "croak".

"Arthur—brat—you are crazy, you dare to go out to sea in such a big wind and waves..." The captain's thick voice came from afar.

Arthur smiled, waved to the figure on the shore, and rowed back home.

"I'm going to take an old friend home..." Arthur explained to the captain obediently wiping his wet hair with a towel.

"Full of nonsense." The captain rolled his eyes, "Where is your friend? His home is on the bottom of the sea?"

"It's hard to explain..." Arthur couldn't explain for a while.

Arthur was punished for his behavior - he was given a big bowl of squid, which he hated most, for dinner.

Seeing Arthur's tears, the crew on the ship felt distressed and interceded with the captain one after another.

"Arthur has always been very obedient, only once in a while, he shouldn't be so strict..."

"You don't understand." The captain hugged his chest, "It is because of the first offense that you have to be severely punished! Only then can you remember this lesson!"

but……

Recalling the dim boat at that time, he seemed to have really seen another figure other than Arthur?

That figure seemed a little familiar...but that was impossible, if that person came back, he would definitely come to see him.I must have read it wrong.

Salem returns to the world of the living with breaking news.

"What? You said you saw Arthur?!" Meddy couldn't restrain her excitement.

"That's right," Salem reported good news but not bad news, without mentioning the dangers he encountered. "He's doing well. He's a cook on a ship. The captain and crew are all good people."

Even if he never met the fabled captain, he could still speak with great sincerity.

"Chef, it suits him well." What's more, the job is safe.After hearing this, Meddy let go of her hanging heart a lot.

Seren knew what Meddy wanted to hear, so she told her about Arthur in detail.Talk about Arthur looking more resolute and mature, talk about the beautiful sunset by the sea, talk about Arthur's life on the boat...

Maddy listened carefully, those stories were indeed from Arthur's tone.She now completely believes that Arthur still exists somewhere, and she is willing to believe in the possibility that Arthur can come back.

"That's why Meddy has to cheer up, otherwise Arthur will worry about you when he comes back." Salem knew what words could reach Meddy's heart.

Sure enough, Meddy nodded firmly.Arthur's news injected her full of vitality, and the familiar smile returned to her face again.

Salem said nothing about Arthur's refusal to be resurrected.

Life is short, and partners in the underworld can wait until they die again to meet each other.How can the wishes of the dead be more important than the wishes of the living?

In other words, the wishes of the characters are not as important as the author.

Lin Chengshi wants him to be resurrected, he must be resurrected, why bother to disturb Meddy's mood again.

After four uses of the crown, it was finally reduced to dust.It fell on the ground, mixed with grass mustard, and could not be distinguished clearly.

The sun was about to set, and Salem said to Meddy: "The temperature is getting colder, so go back early."

……

Lin Chengshi woke up.

This time his dream didn't last long, but it contained a lot of information.At least one month of updates can be maintained. If there are more scenes and psychological descriptions, it is not impossible to get out of the water for two months.

He got up and turned on the computer to check the manuscript, and sure enough, it was all drawn.The picture is really beautiful, just as he imagined.

All those underworld scenery became the cover of "The Underworld", and the colors are really beautiful.

Although the scene of "Moses Divides the Sea" is handsome, Lin Chengshi's favorite scene is the moment when Seren leaves in Arthur's boat.

The boat spanned two pages, stopping right at the moment when Arthur had just passed through the invisible "door" and Selene had left through that "door".You can also see the blurred figure of Salem.

In the violent storm, amidst the pale water vapor, he had just escaped a life-and-death test, and the waves were so turbulent.But the boat was "quiet", as steady as a reed boat across the river.

Really well drawn.Lin Chengshi came to paint in person, and he couldn't paint better.

After being intoxicated for a while, Lin Chengshi found that he had another month's vacation.

To take this precious time to think about how the manga will end, Lin Chengshi thought so.But he was soon distracted by news of new art exhibitions and invitations from friends to go to the beach.

Hey, anyway, there is still more time, and it is better to combine work and rest!Lin Chengshi comforted himself, seeing that the weather outside was fine, he simply put on his painting box and went out to sketch.
