Nanzhen is a beautiful city. Although it is suffixed with "town", it is a real bustling metropolis.Walking on the streets of Nanzhen, you can feel the unique style of coastal cities. The people of Nanzhen are warm and open, but you can also vaguely feel their xenophobia.

Walking through the noisy streets, I came to a small church.

It was already dusk at this time, and the days in summer are always much longer than the nights.The twilight enters from 40 window openings at the base of the dome of the church, forming a light phantom.Those beautiful shadows of the sun attracted me immediately after entering the church, and I looked up at them for a long time until the deep male voice pulled me back to my sanity.

"May God bless you, my child."

Only then did I turn my gaze to the priest in dark blue robes standing over the first row of church pews. For some reason, I didn’t notice him at first.This is strange, because even though my eyes can deceive me, my perception can never deceive me—after all, I have been trained in Hadiron assassination for many years.

I stared straight at him. If an ordinary person was stared at like this, he would probably feel offended.But the priest didn't show the slightest worry. His icy blue eyes were neither indifferent nor enthusiastic, as if stripped of human emotions, it really felt like the eyes of a god.

I think I know who he is, and I can guess it without the system reminding me.

A collection of eight heroes of the Orochi clan, the head of the Four Heavenly Kings, Goniz, who blows the wind, is a priest in this life.The father of this body is logically supposed to be his subordinate, and it was Goniz who inspired the blood of the big snake in this body at that time, so Lianna ran away and killed her biological parents by mistake.

It should be the enemy's.But right now, I am alone, and I am definitely not his opponent.

"Father," I said slowly, "please pray for me."

Goniz didn't say anything, just kept that expression, tapped my forehead with the cross, and then began to pray.The sound of his prayers surrounded the church, leaving a silence.I could feel the rage factor in my blood gradually quiet down, and those noisy whispers gradually went away.

"It's so quiet." I said involuntarily.

Goniz squeezed the Bible slightly harder with his fingers. I don't know what the sign is.If he wants to do something to me, I will definitely not live to see the sun of tomorrow. Although I am already the top among mercenaries, I am still very self-aware to the whole world.

"Every time I'm alone, there's a lot of noise and noise in my ears all the time. I don't know what it is." I say this softly, and I'm telling the truth, "But sometimes it feels like, this is probably My fate, because I probably shouldn't exist in this world."

"All existence is God's will. My child," he said gently.

"Whose will is the existence of God?" I asked rhetorically.

"It's what the world itself needs," Gouniz said.

"Then why does this world exist?" I asked, with a somewhat urgent tone.

"That's for philosophers," he said, stroking my head. "My child, all we need is faith. Believe in my Lord, and you will have no doubts."

"Did it save you from thinking?" I raised my face and asked, "Uncle Gonitz, haven't you ever wondered?"

The dusk outside the church was getting thicker and thicker, and the light came in from the stained glass, reflecting his ice-blue eyes, giving him a trance-like tinge of compassion.

More than ten years ago, Goniz came to Lianna's house. At that time, little Lianna grabbed his clothes and called him in a soft voice, Uncle Goniz.At that time, his identity was his father's old friend.

"Lianna." He looked at me, and he was enveloped in a radiance that made him look divine and great... though I don't know the truth.Sure enough, he recognized me, or he was here to wait for me, "No one has the right to have doubts before my Lord."

"For nearly a thousand years," I said, "for nearly a thousand years, you have been reincarnated non-stop, looking for a way to resurrect your Lord...Aren't you tired?"

"Tired." To my surprise, he actually said that.

I looked at him in a daze, and then he said, "But otherwise, my existence would have no meaning."

It's just ridiculous.Is the meaning of existence to resurrect the serpent?How many times have you been reincarnated, each time just for this one goal?The ultimate goal of the big snake is to purify the earth, it can be said to destroy human beings.

...Does this make sense?

When such a question arises in my heart, a great sadness also overwhelms me.

It doesn't make sense.as I am now.One world after another, one experience after another, was created just to conquer the characters.Whenever I faltered, there was excruciating pain or some other horrible reminder of what to do.

While that sadness overwhelmed me, I felt the cold greeting from the system again, this time it was like burning my soul.It's not excruciating pain, but a terrible feeling that almost blows your mind away.It was difficult to stand still, but Goniz caught me who fell, and I vaguely felt his hand on my forehead, and then I fell into a coma.

When I woke up in the middle of the night and my clothes had been changed, it made me feel uneasy.I got up from the bed, opened the door, and saw Gonitz himself.He was reading the Bible under the lamp, looking like an ordinary priest.

Good evening.Lianna. Seeing me coming out, he closed the Bible and smiled at me, "Your clothes were stained by the blood oozing from your body, so I changed them for you on my own initiative." "

As soon as I saw him, I felt the emotion in my chest start to burn intensely, so I looked away and pretended to be indifferent on purpose.He is my kind, my heart, my soul, even the cells of my body cry out for it.We all exist for some ridiculous reason, but that's why we can't love each other.

"I'm leaving." I said firmly, "When we meet again, we will be enemies. I will avenge my parents."

"Welcome anytime." The gentle smile on Goniz's face remained unchanged, "But it's too late today, you can rest for a night before leaving."

Of course I didn't promise him.

It was already late at night when he came out of Gonitz's residence. Of course, the nightlife in South Town is quite rich.After dismissing a few men who approached me, I went straight into a bar to ease my mood.

To my surprise, the atmosphere of the bar is quite good, it looks orderly.There's a red-haired guitarist in the corner, strumming to himself, and he looks eerily familiar.

...What day is it today? I actually met two characters in a row.

I noticed him right away when I entered the bar, and I'm sure he noticed me too.We bleed part of the same blood, so when we look at each other, we can feel a kind connection with each other.

The light in the bar was a little dim, and the light and shadow shone on his side face. It wasn't the hideous and frightening face in the game video, and it couldn't even be said to be indifferent. At this moment, it was actually touched with the word "soft".

I called the waiter over, "Order a glass of wine for the guitarist."

"What wine? Miss." The waiter asked.

I thought for a few seconds and said the name of the wine: "The Temptation of the Night."

The waiter's eyes immediately became ambiguous, oh, yes, ordering this wine for the opposite sex in the bar is a strong hint.

I found a place to sit down, listening to his guitar, my mood gradually relaxed.The waiter over there has already given the guitarist a glass of wine "Temptation of the Night". The waiter pointed him to my location, and he looked over with cold eyes.

I didn't show a warm expression, and I raised my glass to pay tribute to him with light eyes.

When the song was over, I paid my bill and got up to leave the bar.The guitar sound behind him stopped, and the guitarist also tacitly followed.

If the guitarist wasn't him, it'd probably be an unspoken grown-up game.

We walked into the alley one after another, the moonlight shone on me, and I stopped with my back to him.

"Are you one of them?" he asked behind me.It was a very cold voice, without any extra emotion.

"No." I knew he was referring to the Orochi clan, and I didn't plan to stand with them, so I answered without burden.

The alley was silent for a while, except for the meowing of cats.Occasionally there are cars passing by outside the alley, and the lights of the cars illuminate the environment in the alley for a moment.

I turned around and looked carefully at the person I had long known unilaterally, Yagami An.To be honest, my first encounter with him was something I didn't expect.Like the world-renowned King of Fighters Kusanagi Kyo, Yagami's reputation has resounded throughout the fighting world, but it is full of people, and almost everyone mentions this name in awe. To be an enemy of him is not so much a Fighting is more like torture.

"You play the guitar very well," I said.

"Thank you," he said.

"Do you have a girlfriend?" I continued to ask.

"Why do you ask."

"Because I don't want to have a one-night stand with someone who has a girlfriend." The corner of my mouth raised a slightly provocative arc, "Isn't that what you meant by accepting my drink?"

The author has something to say: Yagami's guitar playing is an official setting.

I'm sleepy today, so let's do this first.

Congratulations!
