[Comprehensive] Why am I not dead yet?

The first thing you see when you open your eyes is an empty sky.

Lian Su raised her hand and put it in front of her eyes. The ordinary clothes she put on before going to bed had turned into a special dress that only heroic spirits would wear. She stared at her hands silently for a while, and was about to sit up with her body propped up.

"Oh, are you finally awake?"

As the man's deep and magnetic voice sounded, a palm with brown skin covered with jet-black magic patterns also stretched out in front of her.

Lian Su, who was pulled to the Temple of Time, raised his head, and saw Gaitia, the first beast king, wearing the handsome appearance of King Solomon.

Lian Su: "...the way to enter the dream, my first reaction was to think it was Merlin."

"Although your spirit foundation was made temporarily, it is also from me. It doesn't take the succubus to pull your spirit over here."

Lian Su: "Thank you so much. It took me ten years to barely forget about it. You reminded me in one sentence."

After she finished speaking, she still put her hand on the other's hand and asked him to pull herself up. After the woman got up and turned around, the Demon God Pillars who had just twisted together to act as the mattress under her ran away one after another. Only a white barbatos was left sticky around her leg.

……

So she was silent again.

The Demon God King noticed that the hand that had not been removed from his palm was beginning to become stiff, and he yelled out in an extremely merciful voice: "Barbatos, do what you should do."

The last Demon God Pillar reluctantly pulled out from Lian Su's leg, and ran away with a grunt.

Lian Su murmured: "...In this way, I suddenly feel that it's okay to be caught in Avalon or discovered by Gilgamesh."

Getia glanced at her, and slowly let go of the hand in his palm.

"I saved your life, but you don't have the slightest intention to thank me."

The first beast sat back on the throne and said in a deep voice.

"What do you mean? Do you mean you dragged me from the imaginary number space to your temple of time?" She rolled her eyes: "I don't think that's life-saving, but I think I'm just 'dead' too A nice ending."

"It's a pity." Getia said plainly, "As long as the god Tiamat exists, you will not be given the concept of death. The difference is that you are sleeping in the Temple of Time or in the imaginary space."

Lian Su glared at him, and was about to walk out.

Gaitia rubbed his fingers slowly, and said calmly: "Beforehand, I just drew your spirit. After you walk out of here, you will be in the world you are in now. Maybe you can open your eyes as soon as you open your eyes." When you see other clairvoyant holders, whether you want to go out directly like this is up to you.”

Seeing that the woman who was about to step out of the temple turned around very smoothly, she flicked her sleeves and swayed back.

As soon as she raised her head, she met Gaia's calm eyes on the throne. Those eyes that saw through the past and the future were staring at her without blinking, without any emotional fluctuations.

...But it was precisely these impersonal eyes that made Lian Su feel more guilty.

"What are you doing, Getia?" She sighed and stopped.

The beast on the throne replied frankly: "I want to keep looking at you and have something to say to you, but if you run away, I can only find you back."

"You have to stay here all the time. If you leave like this, I won't be able to see you."

said the beast on the throne to her.

Lian Su frowned slightly, with a puzzled expression on her face: "...what do you mean?"

The other party replied calmly, "It's literally."

"Then what are you pulling me for, and you still want to burn people? Do you want my help?" Lian Su turned his head and asked.

Getia shook his head.

"Since we have come to this point, there is no need to burn it again. Besides, it has reached the point where it is today. Even if it is too late, it will be useless."

Lian Su blinked her eyes, a little unresponsive.

The Demon God King raised his eyelids, and his face, which is usually neither happy nor sad, suddenly showed a smile that was not a smile: "Let's not talk about how terrible the furious mother goddess Tiamat is, and how much that blow at the last moment caused us. The loss... simply creating a spirit foundation for you consumes a considerable part of my magic power."

Lian Su: "... At this time, I want to say thank you, are you really a good person?"

—— She really didn't know that Gaetia had bought her a new spirit base.

After all, she was able to wake up from the long slumber only after she got the spirit foundation. The first thing Lian Su did after that was to quickly escape from the Temple of Time with the help of a few Demon God King while the Demon God King was not paying attention. ran away.

Now facing the suffering master who might have cast a new temporary spiritual base for her, Lian Su was fearless, but also a little bit guilty.

... By the way, after she got her heart back from her mother, did she also get back a lot of the conscience she lost at the beginning?

Well, this is not a good thing.

Getia over there didn't notice what she was thinking, and continued in a calm tone: "The burning of human nature should be said to have failed; half of the responsibility lies with you, the third beast."

Lian Su:. "...I won't take your inexplicable blame."

"Really, but it really has something to do with you."

"The supreme happiness of human beings I originally pursued was to stay away from death, despair, pain, and betrayal, to liberate human beings from the established ending of death, to live a life that will never usher in a sad ending, and to be fixed in an endless loop of happiness today ——This is the world I yearn for, or rather, the world I once yearned for.”

"But before I created this ideal, I met the third beast who held the principle of love... At that time, I was 'polluted' by the poison possessed by the beast itself."

The tone of the Demon God on the throne was almost gentle.

"Then...out of the obsession with the same kind, and the desire produced by this body polluted by the poison of the beast of lust, I stretch out my hand to you in front of Tiamat, and take you back again. Take it back to my waiting side once."

Lian Su raised her eyebrows slightly, and at the same time, the man on the throne got up and walked down from above, all the way to her.

"——'Why are human beings so persistent, why are human beings unwilling to give up, why do they still try to live on knowing that they are doomed to die at the moment of birth, anyway, they are all for death, anyway, they are all going to die, so die What's the point of struggling before'. I have such doubts, so I have come to this day."

The Demon God King lifted up a strand of her long hair with his fingers, and further shortened the distance between the two of them. He lowered his head and looked at the woman's beautiful golden pupils.

"...I really want to ask you this question—because only by keeping you by my side can I rely on you to feel all the emotions that humans have."

he whispered.

Lian Su: "... I know you just mean it literally, but I advise you not to say such things to girls casually."

"Welcome to death countless times, usher in new life countless times... Instead of asking those human beings, it is better to ask you who have experienced countless reincarnations of death; you have the right to hate more than anyone else, Anyone should give up humans first... But even when you became a 'beast', you didn't choose to completely destroy them."

"Why." The beast asked her solemnly.

"Why are you asking this all of a sudden." Lian Su also asked back.

Gaitia replied: "Since I was hit by Tiamat, I can gradually feel your emotions through you as a medium, but I still can't understand it."

Lian Su: "...you didn't tell me that you have tampered with me to this extent."

Getia: "You didn't ask either."

The woman sighed and gave up arguing with him.

"...Ah, how can I explain this problem to you?"

Lian Su frowned, with a slightly distressed and helpless expression.

"Sometimes, it is precisely because I know the ending that the happiness I can feel during this period is extraordinarily beautiful... Speaking of which, I probably also accidentally developed a bad habit during this period, thinking about waiting instead of waiting in panic. It is better to make all the foreshadowings in advance when death comes at the right time, so that you can enjoy the rest of your life generously! ——And because you know the result, you will cherish all the happiness during this period.”

Getia was silent for a moment, then shook his head.

"I still don't understand."

He said.

"You have experienced so much inequality, so much resentment, don't you never feel angry?"

"... used to be."

Lian Su lowered her eyes and laughed softly.

"A long, long time ago, I liked someone, to what extent... I stayed with him for ten years, but then I died, but he was still alive.

But I wanted to find him, so I tried my best to find that person. At that time, he became an old man, and I was still the same as when I first met. "

"Do you know what the first sentence he said after he recognized me?"

"—he called me a monster and tried to kill me."

Lian Su said with a smile, without any sadness on her face, she was completely relieved; it was just telling about a certain experience that she had unforgettable, but now she just remembers what happened What a story of this level.

"It was around that time that I realized that I may be different from others, but I am no different from others - the attachment will eventually pass, and what is the relationship between those things that were related to me and the future me; although that person He hates me and is afraid of me, but the happiness I have experienced in my life with him is real. No one can deny this. The difference is that he has caused me more harm, or the happiness and Just a little more love."

"... Most of the time it's still not directly proportional." Lian Su added.Getia nodded: "So you like your son more than your lover... and you even dug out your heart from that succubus."

Lian Su covered her face and sighed: "Anyway, Kanglai has been away for a long time, and I don't care anymore... and my mother also reshaped my heart for me, so she insisted on telling me whether I still have any obsession with Merlin... Yes, I do. Yes, but it is estimated that after a few hundred years, I might forget him or not.”

"Oh."

Getia nodded quite calmly, but the ending sound rose a little unconsciously.

Hearing this response, Lian Su suddenly raised her head to look at his face. The other party looked back with a flat face, only to get an increasingly suspicious look: "I was a little curious just now... It took 3000 years to destroy Is the demon king who hates human beings so good-tempered and likes to ask questions?"

"I am still omniscient and omnipotent, but I still can't understand human feelings and what the king did at that time." Getia replied. "However, because of your relationship, I felt the concept of death before. For a moment, I felt an emptiness that I had never felt in 3000 years."

"So that means you don't plan to burn people?" Lian Su looked suspicious.

"I want to think about it." The other party lowered his eyes and said.

Lian Su: "...Is it possible to think about this kind of thing?"

"So it's all your fault." The Demon God King said indifferently: "Humanity Burning is half destroyed because of your relationship, and the remaining half is probably a matter of time with the efforts of Chaldea. Instead of burning it once, it’s better to take this opportunity to think about things that you couldn’t notice before.”

Lian Su: "So?"

Gaitia: "I still can't really feel the feelings of human beings, but you can; and through your influence, I can too—but if you can feel a hundred, I can only feel one. Fortunately, the amount can be added...then as long as I stay by your side, sooner or later I will understand the part that I couldn't understand before."

Lian Su: "And then??"

Gaitia said calmly: "Since you don't like the Temple of Time, then I will go down with you; after all, your magic power and the spiritual base you are using now are still provided by me, so I can follow you wherever you go. If you don’t burn it, then these magic powers are more than enough for you to offer demons—if you really like it, even if you blow up a spirit base on a whim, I can make you a few new ones.”

Lian Su: "Wait???"

She hurriedly pushed Gaitia's chest that was gradually pressing over: "Just say what are you doing here!???"

The handsome demon god frowned puzzledly: "What are you doing... Naturally, I need to add a little bit of magic power first, the current magic power is very lacking... Don't you think that I pulled you here just to avoid the other two? Clairvoyance, right? I think humans use this method quite a lot, so I can’t just use the Demon God Pillar to replenish your demons, right?”

Before she had time to utter a word of refusal, she suddenly lost gravity under her feet, and when she opened her eyes again, it was the bedroom in the previous world.

Lian Su: "..."

Lian Su: "...???"

Is the current transition so hard? ? ? ? ?

She was still in the mood of being startled by Gaitia before, at this time a soft little hand was pressed on the side of her cheek, Lian Su's heart tightened, and she turned her head slowly, and saw a smile on the corner of her mouth that was a bit too much The face of a bright and well-behaved beautiful boy.

"Let's just sign the contract unilaterally and run down. I'm worried that you won't be able to accept me as an adult due to various factors. I used my childhood appearance before I ran down. I used a treasure to shield other heroic spirits. When two long-lost reunions meet..."

The blond-haired red-eyed boy narrowed his eyes, his other hand was already on the other side of her cheek, and his whole body was directly on top of her.

Lian Su lifted up the quilt silently to cover half of her face, only revealing her pair of golden pupils looking timidly at the beautiful boy above.

"...Speaking of which, what 'interesting' dream were you having just now, my dear Susu?"

Gilgamesh, who looked like a boy, asked with a smile on his face.

Lian Su: ...

Lian Su: ... oh qwq.
