"Death" I thought it was just a monster

The moment he noticed the difference, he brought the person he was holding into his arms, but he was still a step slower. The person he was holding in his hand a moment ago suddenly turned into a phantom, and passed away without wind, while the people around him It also seemed that ink was poured down from around the top of the head along a cuboid trajectory, slowly turning into a black enchantment.

Total darkness.

Wherever he stood, there was no discomfort at all, not to mention his defensive posture, even the expression on his face did not change at all, only the eyelashes drooped slightly to cover up his expression.

In the empty and silent space, a slight wind suddenly appeared, and the hair that originally fell to his forehead moved slightly, and then almost at the same time, he turned slightly sideways, avoiding the blade that suddenly appeared from the darkness.

At the same time, at the moment of turning sideways, another knife silently hit his vest.Slowly, without any murderous intent, the clothes were pierced, and the moment they touched the skin——

——"Ridiculous." A deep, mellow mulberry voice.The blade paused, and the stabbed body in front of him was slowly shattering and drifting away, and before he felt the killing intent, he was shot dead from behind.

When he fell down, it revealed a man who had been standing behind him at some point—with one hand in his pocket and the other, holding Zanpakuto.

Lightly scratch the tip of the knife to shake off the blood on it.

"...Are you actually using illusion in front of me?" The corners of the mouth were slightly hooked, and the eyes were too clear in the darkness.

"Out of control."

In the silent darkness, a chuckle came from an unknown direction, and with this chuckle, the originally dark enchantment gradually became slightly brighter, making it possible to see the surroundings clearly.

This is a rectangular parallelepiped barrier, with countless criss-crossing spider threads intertwined in the sky above the barrier, and there are also large and small things hanging on it like silkworm chrysalis, wrapped in spider threads and suspended in the sky.

And directly opposite Aizen, reclining on the spider web, was the boy with a shy smile, with one leg bent, his elbow resting on it, his chin propped up, and one foot dangling in the air.

While the other hand is playing with a cross-shaped wooden stick, thin invisible silk threads hang down from above and extend to the bottom, wrapping around someone, like a large doll.

"We met for the first time, the former king of Xuquan, Aizen." He smiled, with light dimples on his delicate face, looking harmless and delicate. "Ah, that's right. Thank you for cultivating a good combat power for our invisible empire." He licked the corner of his mouth as if thinking of something.

"Masquerade, what a good cannon fodder~"

As if he didn't hear it, all the attention of the man in front of him was on the doll.His head was bowed, his long hair concealing his face.The elbows of both hands seem to be drawn by invisible threads, in a strange posture of being hung there.Silently.

Blood, smeared from the joints, soaked the clothes, and dripped to the ground little by little.

"Huh?" The boy seemed to realize that he had just realized that all his attention was on the doll in his hands. "Ah~ I'm so sorry, I haven't asked Her Royal Highness the Princess to greet you, I'm really sorry." He slightly moved the cross-shaped wooden stick on his hand.The silk thread involved the puppet below, and the machine slowly raised a hand, and blood beads flowed from the place where the spider thread connected the skin while waving.

The amber eyes looked extremely calm, the hair drooping in front of her covered the doll's face, but no matter the figure, or a little white bandage faintly protruding from the hair, it all showed that the person in front of her was Xingying .

"Oh?" The boy seemed to have seen something interesting and was very interested. "I thought that putting Her Royal Highness in front of you like this would definitely make you lose control."

"Well... I'm so naive~"

"No." For the first time, the amber eyes shifted their gaze to the young man. "You should be proud."

"Oh?"

"Because." Aizen smiled. "For a split second, I almost believed it."

"Hmm... What do you mean you think it's fake?" The young man frowned. "Trouble, why do you have such an idea?"

"This is clearly our princess, Her Royal Highness~"

"I originally thought that this place was just a pure illusion." Lan Ran looked at the black enchantment of the cuboid. "But now it seems that this should be a domain, right?"

"Existence higher than enchantment, similar to the realm of gods."

"Oh?" The boy was still smiling, with a slight curiosity on his face. "Where did you see that?"

"As you who have been hiding in the shadows of the soul world, you should have some understanding of the abilities I possess?" He smiled, still holding the weapon that appeared from nowhere in a leisurely manner. Soul knife.The handle of the knife is light green, which is the same color as the surface of the lake, which always looks gentle and calm. The blade glows with a cool light, reflecting the boy sitting on the spider silk.

"Completely hypnotized." The tip of the knife was pointing down, hanging low. "For me who can confuse other people's facial features at any time, here, all senses are actually suppressed, and I almost can't tell the truth from the fake."

"So, compared to enchantment, this should belong to your domain?"

"Really." The boy was annoyed, looking like he couldn't help but rub his hair. "I thought I could lie to you a little more."

"But." He smiled and held the wooden stick in his hand.Forcing Xingying, who had lowered her head, to raise her head—the only intact right eye shed tears of blood.Shrunk the amber pupils.

"Since the five senses have been suppressed, how can you... how can you tell whether the one in my hand is real or fake?"

"Make the enemy misunderstand all the things and phenomena in this world as you like." The boy said with emotion. "How envious I am of this power..."

"So, now that you are backlashed by this ability, how do you feel now?"

The author has something to say: The plot from now on is all my imagination! ~ Nonsense!

Ah... I'm ready to be slapped in the face by the original in the not-too-distant future...
