Chapter 55 Additional update
"You must not divulge a single word of what you have seen."
Above the ruins of the golden palace, a godlike figure floated in mid-air, his purple-gold vertical pupils looking down, reflecting his broken body.
He stared blankly at the halo beneath her feet, unsure how to respond.
A card landed in front of him.
"In exchange, although it can only be used once, it is enough for you."
Upon receiving the magic card, he felt short of breath; his heart, which had stopped beating after becoming a dead person, was now pounding violently.
That was a taboo that defied the laws of nature, something that should never exist, something countless people longed for but could never attain—
[The Dead Resurrected]
-----------------
Time is slightly reversed (Bite of the Dust is activated).
Because the resonance reached the "superego," the Demon Slayer could no longer transform back into a human. If he returned to his own country, he would only be regarded as a remnant of Huang Jinqing's forces and hunted down. He had no choice but to take his wife and seek refuge with Xing Liang.
"No, why do you think the people of this country will accept you?"
The night after Xing Liang woke up, Zhu Xiexia bypassed hospital security and entered Xing Liang's ward through the window.
“Inmodoro values strength and superior dueling skills, so she doesn’t care too much about my identity, and she said you would help me solve the rest of the problems.”
Suddenly, someone burst into the room, and the Demon Slayer was almost killed by Xing Liang's Tyrannosaurus Rex, which had been summoned by the startled Xing Liang.
"Who said that?"
"A lady who claims to be the ruler of chaos."
"..."
Xing Liang sighed helplessly, "My good daughter, you really found a good job for your cheap old man like me."
That night, his final duel with the Chaos Dragon ended in a draw.
Xing Liang didn't know the effect of the blank card, but Chaos Dragon did. In Xing Liang's eyes, it was a blank magic card, but what Chaos Dragon saw was an 11-star Synchro Monster with 3500 ATK and 3500 DEF.
The property is not light.
This has led to an awkward situation.
Xing Liang could win if he activated the effect later, but he didn't know the specific effect of that card, so he couldn't activate it; Chaos Dragon had theoretically already lost, but she couldn't lose if Xing Liang didn't activate the effect.
In the end, the result was a draw.
However, the Chaos Dragon still briefly explained her relationship with Xing Liang, or more accurately, Xing Liang's relationship in his past life, omitting some details and giving a general overview.
"As for why I won't tell you everything I know, based on my understanding of your past life and my observations these past few days, I estimate that after hearing it, you would disregard everything and storm the realm of gods."
"You mean the mastermind is in the divine realm?"
"……forget it."
Although the Chaos Dragon vehemently denied it, Xing Liang still kept the matter of going to the God Realm firmly in his mind.
Getting back to the main point, Xing Liang, under the pretext of verifying his conjecture, invited the old pastor and his unfortunate landlord, Herrius.
Although the identity of the deceased demon-slaying hero startled them, they only relaxed their guard after hearing about his confrontation with Huang Jinqing and Xing Liang's personal guarantee.
Xing Liang's conjecture is: Is it possible that those who fail to resonate during the awakening ceremony are not lacking in talent, but rather "going in the wrong direction"?
He had searched through the records of successful resonances in the church and found that few undead or demon elves were resonated with. Therefore, he boldly speculated that the "door" opened in the church's resonance ceremony only included the world under the rule of the Winged Dragon of Ra, and that many elven realms should not be included.
In Xing Liang's hospital room, they conducted a simple awakening ceremony: the Demon Slayer and the old priest opened the "door" at the same time, allowing Heris to try to awaken resonance again.
As it turned out, Xing Liang's guess was correct. Heris stared blankly at the undead monster [Fallen Warrior] in his hand.
This means that from now on, if a child fails to awaken resonance, the old pastor will communicate with the child, and the Demon Slayer will conduct a second awakening ceremony.
Finally, the old pastor made the decision, and the evil-slaying hero and his wife moved to the Church of the Sun.
No one could have imagined that someone who had passed away would choose to live in a church, let alone a church dedicated to the sun god.
This is tantamount to Muzan moving his house next door to Yoriichi Tsugikuni and saying that Yoriichi is welcome to visit anytime.
Back to the present, although the Demon Slayer had already been assigned his future tasks, after sensing the presence of the deceased in the city at night, he volunteered to take on more work to deal with them.
I don't know why, but he really hated the deceased.
So at night, he was responsible for tracking down the location of the deceased, and after taking them under control, his wife would perform purification.
Aimor, the wife of the evil-slaying hero, resonates with the angelic elf [Holy Night Knights - Riel].
At this moment, she was embracing the Demon Slayer with a happy expression, seemingly unconcerned about her and her husband's predicament in a foreign land, her eyes only on her husband.
so good.
Xing Liang couldn't help but sigh, and at the same time, he inexplicably felt a little full, probably because he ate too much for dinner (laughs).
After saying goodbye to the couple who were slaying evil spirits, Xing Liang safely took Sera home.
When he got home, Xing Ya was lying on the living room sofa scrolling through short videos, with several bags of snacks open on the coffee table next to her, looking quite comfortable.
He went over, moved her legs apart, and sat down next to her.
"Xiaoya, let me see your extra deck."
From the beginning, Xing Liang hadn't looked at Xing Ya's extra clothes. At first, he thought it was unnecessary, but now he felt there was something in them that he had to take a look at.
"Wait a minute... here you go."
She wiped her greasy hands, took out a card deck from the system space, and tossed it to Xing Liang.
Three Evolution Emperors, Hellfire Raptor Pterosaurs, two Transcendence Dragons... a fairly standard Dinosaur-type Extra Deck.
But he stopped when he saw the last one.
"Xiaoya, can I have this card?"
After a moment of silence, he took out the card separately.
"【Psychic Executioner】? I've used it once, and the commotion it generated was quite significant. You can take it if you want."
Xing Ya glanced up briefly before continuing to watch videos.
"Okay, you can keep this card for now. There's no need to put it in an extra deck; just keep it in your system space."
"A blank card? What's it for?"
"I don't know, just keep it for me."
Although it seemed strange, my brother must have had his reasons for doing it.
Without much thought, she threw it directly into the system space.
【…】
"Hey sis, let's talk about something."
Xing Liang put the card away and approached Xing Ya with a grin.
"I always feel like you have ulterior motives..."
She shifted her position slightly, creating some distance between herself and Xing Liang.
"It's nothing major, the school is sending students to a competition soon, and they're currently arranging training. I'm short a sparring partner, so what do you think..."
He reached out and grabbed her ankle, clearly not intending to let her go.
"...Can I refuse?"
"What do you think?"
Xing Liang said with a forced smile.
Looks like I can't refuse (sad).
