Chapter 1353: Chapter 27: Question_3

"She wants me and you to help this world, but... this path requires too much sacrifice, sacrifices I cannot accept."

"You don’t know, even the True God is powerless before such a prophecy, I am only at the Eighteenth Rank, and you have just entered the Mythical Rank, both of us have exceedingly weak power. But I also know the logic of avoiding disaster, don’t forget, you taught me this logic. So now, even if you are unwilling to escape from this ’called sweet, actually abyss’ doomsday vortex, I must pull out the nails on your body one by one and take you away, do you understand?"

Helair bit Fisher’s earlobe and earnestly tried to persuade him,

"So, the meaning of those two Demons is my meaning. Fisher, listen to me, stay in the Dragon Court and do nothing, you can’t do anything. Leave everything to me, okay? The Dragon Queen has a key to the prophecy of the end of the world on her body, let me kill her, even if it delays the arrival of destruction for a moment, we can take the opportunity to escape far away, without caring about anything..."

Fisher’s expression gradually grew solemn, upon hearing Helair’s words, he realized that obtaining the Demi-human Girls Completion Manual and learning about the prophecy of the end of the world was not a chance encounter. Gui had set sights on him a long time ago, allowing him to enter the Mythical Rank, and even found Helair, enabling her to survive the collapse of the Holy Land, the demise of myth, all to make her help him resolve the prophecy of the end of the world.

However, Helair ultimately worried about him, she did not want him to take risks, hence she changed her mind halfway, wanting to first kill those tied to the prophecy before rescuing him, who was stuck in it.

"So, the game you mentioned, was it after meeting Gui and then telling me... that it meant I should give up everything I have to exchange for three gifts or benefits, right?"

Helair just looked at Fisher and said,

"No, before I met you, I encountered Gui. Before meeting you, Gui revealed fate to me, revealed the true meaning of chaos, saw the secrets from another world and the Transferee, so when I first met you, I... But you know, I don’t really believe in fate, I believe more in myself. But don’t tell me, it’s really interesting teasing you."

No wonder, no wonder she would use the non-existent "Cupid" in the Holy Land to tease him, was it actually a concept from another world?

But Fisher didn’t mean to play along with Helair, he finally knew why in the past Helair and Gui were inexplicably friendly to him from the start, though this may not have been the direct cause for Helair’s relations with him, the opportunity was still needed...

The question is, am I really as Gui said, the key to solving the prophecy of the end of the world?

Just because under the guidance of the Demi-human Girls Completion Manual, I found these Ladies symbolizing the power of the apocalypse and formed bonds with them?

But Fisher always felt they weren’t inherently the key to the apocalypse, he thought of Helair’s words earlier, she said Rafael has "key attributes to the prophecy of the end of the world", so Helair wanted to kill Rafael...

"Helair, what did you mean by the key attributes to the prophecy of the end of the world you just mentioned?"

Helair was momentarily stunned upon hearing this, didn’t answer his question, just furrowed her brows slightly, and said to Fisher,

"Could it be that even after I told you the stakes, you still won’t let go?"

"If I could truly let go, I wouldn’t have jumped into the chaotic sea of the Ideal Country to save you back then."

Helair retreated slightly in the dark until the darkness covered half of her face, leaving faint outlines,

"...You are right, that’s exactly who you are, that’s why you grabbed onto them like this. Ha, Gui believes in you, but I don’t trust her. Rafael will definitely die, but not at my hands. Those two Demons won’t follow my orders, after millennium of confinement, they crave freedom like never before. You were present during the Ideal Country incident, you know the connection between Demons and chaos. The prophecy of the end of the world stems from chaos, and Rafael’s secret to activating the prophecy is their key to freedom..."

Within the outlines, her shadowy and smiling expression emerged once more.

Immediately after, she spoke to Fisher again,

"I’ve said it before, even if something happens to this world, you won’t be harmed... After Rafael dies, I will come to pick you up."

"Rafael will not die."

Fisher looked at her with certainty, but she no longer intended to continue this topic, she just yawned indifferently, and said,

"Hehe, go ahead and try... but now I must leave, will you kiss me proactively before I leave?"

Her words blocked Fisher’s words in his throat, he glanced at her helplessly. Even knowing the stark differences between them, there wasn’t any visible sense of confrontation between them, just like earlier when Emhardt warned Fisher multiple times, he still couldn’t question her when they met again. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

When they were in the Holy Land, she left a deep impression on him, and as she said, Fisher was willing to believe she was acting for his good, but definitely not for the welfare of the women he knows.

So, their safety must be guaranteed by himself.

He sighed, moved forward, slowly approached her face hidden in the darkness, but asked before kissing her,

"Wait, are you using that Demon Servant’s body?"

"Got a cleanliness obsession?"

Helair smiled slightly, then shook her head and said,

"Nope..."

"If you’ve been watching me, then all those things I did, especially at night, you..."

Helair looked at him with a fake smile, her body sinking little by little into the darkness,

"I’m leaving, dear."

"Smack..."

But before that, Fisher kissed her, stopping her descending motion.

He kissed her slightly cool lips with closed eyes, separated after a long time, and Helair had no intention of refusing, generously accepting his need.

Until they separated again, Helair licked her lips slightly, savoring the taste,

"Not bad, feels just like ten thousand years ago... but my previous words won’t change even so."

"I know."

"Gui thinks you can solve the prophecy of the end of the world caused by chaos, but ultimately you sink deeper into chaos. I’ve been polluted by chaos for ten thousand years, falling from Angel to Demon, would I not know what that is? This process is like adding fuel to the fire, seeking self-destruction."

"But maybe, only chaos can counteract chaos?"

"Is that what you think?"

"That’s what I think."

Helair glanced at him, then her expression slowly bloomed into a smile once more, she laughed and said,

"Alright, go ahead and try, I’ll be waiting at the end of your failure, then take you away..."

"If that day ever comes."

Helair didn’t reply to his words, maybe she was annoyed by him, just submerged into the darkness without looking back, letting Fisher see none of her disappointed expression.

Watching her back, Fisher couldn’t help but ask,

"If I want to contact you, how should I do it?"

"Try calling ’dear’."

"Really, just like that?"

"It’s fake, I won’t meet you until you fail, and I won’t be watching you all the time, I have other things to do."

"..."

In an instant, the surrounding darkness disappeared like a tide, revealing two Demon Servants lying on the ground in the dimly lit shipyard, completely unconscious.

The shipyard was eerily quiet, only Fisher kept staring at the place where Helair vanished, thinking about something unknown.
