Black Book

Chapter 456 The Difference Between Ordinary People and Gods
Watching the dragon snake contentedly retreating behind the black-clothed youth, the retainers, including Abe Waka, looked at Zhu Haomiao with fear and awe.
Although it was just a fleeting glimpse, they felt a shudder from the bottom of their souls.

That is not oppression in terms of force, but rather the power emanating from a higher level of life at the conceptual and personal level.

That is the difference between ordinary people and God!

However, without paying any attention to the fear of the natives, Zhu Haomiao swallowed his saliva, dragged the blond young man who had become a vegetable, and slowly walked towards the "wolf stick" that was still struggling in the cricket pupa.

pat~
Throwing the blond young man to the ground, Zhu Haomiao stepped on the werewolf's chest, grasped the hilt of the sword with his backhand, and slowly pulled it out.

"Ouch! Ouch!!!!"

The sword's edge rubbed against his bones, flesh and internal organs. The strong force rubbed against his body like a file, causing the werewolf's body to arch uncontrollably in pain.

"Bear with it, it won't hurt soon."

The gentle whisper carried an unspeakable cruel mockery. Zhu Haomiao deliberately drew the sword slowly, staring closely at the werewolf's ferocious eyes.

His bottomless black pupils were filled with mist and swirling, and terrifying evil light spiraled together in his eyes, as if opening the door to the abyss and pouring out materialized, indescribable chaotic darkness.

Click~
Their eyes met, and chaotic darkness followed their line of sight, pouring into the werewolf's soul like a tide. In an instant, Zhu Haomiao seemed to hear the crisp sound of something shattering.

With a raised corner of his mouth, the young man in black drew out his sword and raised his hand to grab without hesitation.

"greedy!"

hum~
The power of the mind permeated reality, and the two figures on the ground slowly floated in the air, entangled together like a twist, twisted and rotated by an invisible force, squeezing out surging blood essence.

Click~
Click~
With the creepy sound of bones shattering, the two figures gradually lost their original shape and entangled together into a deformed mass of debris.

At the same time, all valuable substances and energy were refined and sublimated, condensed into dazzling gold coins, and flew into Zhu Haomiao's palm like a young swallow flying into the forest.

When the last blood-stained [Greed Coin] fell between his fingers, the young man in black lowered his hand, and the remains of the corpse floating in the air fell to the ground like a pile of dry industrial waste. No one could tell that they were two living human beings a few minutes ago.

Gollum~
Hearing the sound of the retainers around him swallowing their saliva, Abe Waka came to his senses and slowly walked to Zhu Haomiao's side.

"You're not hurt, are you?"

"No, it just took some effort to crack the shell."

Shaking the eight-sided Han sword in his hand, Zhu Haomiao smiled meaningfully, and without caring whether Abe Waka understood him or not, he looked around the messy mansion.

"It looks like this place is uninhabitable. Do you have any safe houses?"

Hearing this, Abe Hege thought for a moment and asked tentatively.

"Why don't we just live in the Onmyoji Dormitory? Although the conditions are a bit worse, it's safer."

"Well, sure. I might be away for a while, so you have to pay attention to your safety."

Patting Abe Waka's shoulder, Zhu Haomiao turned his head to look at the glittering night sky, his ten fingers moving slightly.

But soon, he gave up the bold idea.

Compared to cutting leeks, his most important thing now is to ensure the safety of the [Master].

I had too much fun before. If it wasn’t for the white jade golden bridge built by chance, I might have really crashed.

But that was a flash of inspiration that came to me in a desperate situation. Even if I were to reproduce it now, it would probably be difficult to do it...

Squinting his eyes, the light in the sky was reflected in his pupils. Zhu Haomiao slowly lowered his shoulders, loosened his five fingers, and took the Eight-sided Han Sword into his body.

Next to the young man in black, Abe Waka seemed to be hesitant to speak, but finally she mustered up the courage to ask.

"Leaving? Are you going back to Valhalla?"

"Yes and no, or you can understand it as sleeping."

"Sleep?" "Yes, a long sleep."

Turning his head to look at the dome, Zhu Haomiao pursed his lips meaningfully.

"But don't worry. If you are in danger, you can call me and I will wake up as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Abe and Kazuka nodded thoughtfully.

"Do all of you heroic spirits need to sleep? Or are you special?"

"Both are needed, but everyone's sleeping time is different, some are longer, some are shorter."

"Understood. While you are asleep, I will stay in the Onmyoji and try to avoid going out."

Zhu Haomiao looked at Abe Waka with appreciation and nodded secretly in his heart.

Although he is a little weak, his character is resolute and courageous, and he is worthy of being one of the protagonists appointed by destiny.

I feel like she is more like the protagonist than the overly sasaki Yazaki Yuu...

Secretly complaining in his heart, Zhu Haomiao took a last look at the retainers who were cleaning up the mess, and followed Abe Waka into the car bound for Onmyoji.

The scenery outside the window quickly moved backwards. The young man in black looked at the night sky whose brilliance was gradually fading, and shook his head with a smile.

"There have been too many 'gas explosions' tonight. I'm afraid the mayor will lose his hair..."

Hearing this, Abe Waka shook his head.

"Most of it is covered by the national barrier. Only energy fluctuations and spiritual light are visible. It shouldn't cause any disturbance."

"But the problem is, this is just the beginning..."

Facing the half-smile look from the black-clothed youth, Abe Waka fell silent.

Yes, the [Holy Grail War] has just begun, and the entire country is already running around in a hurry. I dare not even imagine what the situation will develop into later!

Damn, what went wrong?
Wasn't it agreed that the [Holy Grail War] would be conducted in secret?

On the other side, looking at Abe Waka's worried look, Zhu Haomiao chuckled and shook his head, retracted his gaze, and his pupils were slightly out of focus.

In a perspective that others cannot see, the information in the [Black Book] is reflected in the pupils.

【Jealousy】Permanent plundering attribute.

[Energy] [Qi] [Spirit] +10
[Strength] [Vitality] [Agility] +20 (10×200%)

[Greed]: LV.0 → LV.4
[Jealousy]: LV.5 → LV.6
Looking at the harvest on the page of illusion, Zhu Haomiao nodded with satisfaction.

Although it is not as nutritious as Amon's, it is still quite beneficial.

More importantly, he also obtained a large amount of [Greed Coins].

With a flip of the hand, a gorgeous gold coin appeared between the fingers like magic, dancing along with the five fingers like an elf.

Abe Waka, who was originally frowning in thought, was attracted by the golden light. He stared at it for a few seconds in a daze, and then he shuddered suddenly as if he had been electrocuted.

"This...what is this?"

Having witnessed the entire process of the birth of this [evil creature] and knowing what it came from, Abe Waka looked at the gold coins between the boy's fingers with lingering fear and looked away vigilantly.

Under the gorgeous and beautiful appearance, there is an indescribable evil distortion...

Just by taking a look at it, Abe and Kazuka felt vaguely bewitched and tempted, and couldn't help but want to possess it!
