Wait, why is this blond guy a lolicon?

"Ah Zhen, I love you."

"Ah Qiang, me too..."

Their hands clasped tightly, their eyes met, and they both saw an unwavering determination in each other's eyes.

"As long as you complete the bishop's mission, in the next life... we can be together forever, and by then, your leukemia will be cured by God."

"Hmm... As long as I'm with you, whether it's the next life or the last moments of this life, I'm content."

His coat was taken off, revealing a bulging yellow explosive pack tied around his waist.

Li Meiyu tilted her head and thought:

Why is it so bulging with rope? It looks a bit like a delicious red bean bun...

On the other side, Marina, who was originally cuddling and kissing Escanor...

I caught a glimpse of that blinding yellow color out of the corner of my eye, and my heart almost stopped.

She sprang up abruptly, her back pressed tightly against the cold glass wall of the cabin.

"Wait! You guys... calm down! calm down!!"

She recognized it at a glance—it was C4!

Escanor, however, remained calm, his expression showing no sign of panic.

The Seven Deadly Sins Retired After Enduring Great Storms: The Sun and the Sin of Pride.

How could a mere human bomb possibly frighten him?

Ah Zhen fastened her coat and turned around, her face with the calmness of a martyr: "We will fulfill the Lord's mission and wait in the next life to receive the blessing of the Feather God, to be with Him for eternity."

As she spoke, she pulled out a cell phone that was on a call.

"Which of you three is Escanor?" Ah Qiang asked.

Upon hearing this, Escanor's expression shifted.

"I."

"The cult leader's order is for you to speak to the person on the other end of the phone."

Ah Qiang pressed the speakerphone button and turned the phone screen this way, "Escano is right here."

rustling...

Before the other person could speak, Escanor silently removed his gold-rimmed glasses and coldly asked:

"You're from the Viper Gang, aren't you?"

Chachai originally intended to give the other party a hard time.

Unexpectedly, his guess was correct, so he stopped pretending to be mysterious and said:

"Hehe... As expected of a veteran 'Yuanxiang Envoy,' your insight is still sharp. That's right! You guessed correctly."

"Escano, I bet you're looking at me with disdain right now. Do you think it'll be easy for you to take care of these two before the explosives detonate?"

"Well, after all, you are a 'Primordial Aspect Envoy,' someone who can condense 'skills' into 'Primordial Aspects.'"

"Back when I was just a nobody in Kuala Lumpur's underworld, I heard your legends: 'The Sun,' 'The Blazing Sun,' 'God's First Ray of Light'... Honestly, I admired you back then."

Escanor: "What exactly are you trying to say?"

"Pinch black~", Cha Cai chuckled strangely and continued with the riddle:

"The aging lion king, though still awe-inspiring in the jungle, has dulled fangs and his claws are no longer sharp."

"One day, a new challenger will break the teacher king's disguise, step on his head, and take all his glory and throne upon himself."

Escanor lowered his head: "So?"

"So, besides the two people in front of you strapped with bombs, the Ferris wheel base below also contains enough C4 explosives to collapse the entire Ferris wheel!"

"Three minutes~"

"You have only three minutes. Go and save everyone on the Ferris wheel. Don't run away."

"Otherwise, I'll have them commit suicide and detonate the bomb immediately!"

Li Meiyu:......

Waaah, why... am I always so unlucky?

She glanced down. Even if she could stop time and jump down using the ethereal technique, and wouldn't suffer fall damage during the ethereal process...

However, at a height of over 100 meters, two seconds of blurring is simply not enough...

Without hesitation, she immediately typed to Jiang Ling: "A couple strapped with bombs have come up here to blow up the Ferris wheel, you stinky blondie! Come save me right now..."

On the other side, Jiang Ling reluctantly parted her lips, unable to suppress a sigh:

Kexin's mom has such a sweet tongue!

It's sweet with a milky flavor!

A special notification sound when a message is received.

He casually rested his chin on Kexin's shoulder, mischievously blowing into her reddened earlobe while opening the message.

"Um?!"

Jiang Ling looked down to the transparent gondola that Mei Yu was riding in.

Miyu, don't worry, I'll be right there.

My brother, Cardboard Knight, is incredibly strong. Don't worry, you can act recklessly and nothing will happen to you.

Just as he was about to get up, a system notification sounded in his ear.

【drop! 】

……

Almost at the same moment.

Escanor stood up.

"Buzz—"

The surrounding air began to distort and heat up, and the scene inside the gondola swayed slightly from the intense heat.

Flames rose, and a wave of heat swept over us.

Behind him appeared a red-haired, muscular man whose appearance was comparable to the "Berserker" from Fate.

His eyes, like molten gold, shone brightly, as if the sun were blazing down upon everything in sight.

It can be described as:

With crimson hair and golden eyes that ignite the heavens, his true form is the proud sun.

Bone forms a Vajra pillar supporting the sky, blood transforms into molten lava that surges like a tide.

The fist strikes with dazzling light, dividing day and night; the gaze shoots like the golden crow, burning the sea reefs.

No matter how many tricks you use, they cannot withstand the blazing sun.

Li Meiyu was startled.

However, when she remembered that the stinky blond guy said there was no danger in messing around, she put away her fear.

Instead, out of curiosity, they leaned closer to look at the fiery, semi-transparent...creature?

"Could it be some kind of 'stand-in' that blondie was talking about?"

Escanor asked in confusion:

"Can you see my 'original form'?"

The so-called "Yuan Xiang" refers to the moment when "skill" reaches its peak.

The spiritual energy spontaneously condenses into a true form, similar to the "nascent soul" in Taoism.

However, this "primordial form" is composed of spiritual power.

Ordinary people cannot see it.

Only those with sufficiently strong mental power can witness the true appearance of the "Primordial Form".

Moreover.

There's a saying circulating in the industry: only the "Primordial Envoy" can fight against the "Primordial Envoy".

Li Meiyu nodded: "Well... to be honest, she's pretty average-looking..."

Escanor: ...

In the distance, Chachai couldn't help but swallow hard, muttering to himself:

"Even though we were hundreds of meters apart, the sense of oppression still made me tremble."

"If I were standing directly in front of him, I'd probably kneel down right away."

Escanor said no more, his mind stirring slightly.

Ultimately, the girl in front of him was very young and looked frail.

A true strong person doesn't care about the innocent remarks of a weak person.

Then, he arrogantly waved his hand.

The "Lord of the Blazing Sun" unleashed a punch that, like a ghost, forcefully pierced through the couple's bodies.

The two looked down in confusion, as if something had grabbed their clothes...

Yuan Xiang suddenly pulled.

The explosive charge was pulled out of the air and separated from the two people.

"Beep!"

Lord of the Blazing Sun threw a punch with his backhand, sending the explosive charge soaring into the sky like a baseball.

"The merciless rays of the sun!"

Immediately, he arrogantly extended his index finger, and a white cloud of vapor appeared at the tip of his finger.

The gas cloud gradually compressed until it disappeared from sight.

"laugh--!"

A scorching beam of light, condensed to its utmost, shot out, arriving before it could strike.

It accurately hit the explosive charge that was tumbling in the air.

Boom!!!

A dazzling fireball exploded high in the sky, and the expanding air currents rolled down, even blowing the clothes of tourists on the ground, who exclaimed in surprise.

Without pausing, the Lord of the Blazing Sun transformed into a crimson meteor and hurtled straight toward the base of the Ferris wheel.

"Beautiful! No wonder he was once known as the 'Sun'!"

Chachai's voice came through the phone again, accompanied by a sly laugh of triumph.

"But you seem to have... forgotten to look to your left?"

Escanor's gaze sharpened as he glanced to his left, where all he saw was an empty sky and crisscrossing steel frames.

No, below... is the roller coaster track!

Not far away, a roller coaster carrying nearly fifty people sped by.

"I forgot to mention, I also tampered with that roller coaster a little."

Chachai's voice was like a viper's hiss, "It will derail at its highest point in about two and a half minutes."

Oh, by the way, it seems there's an elementary school field trip today; the bus was full of kids.

He paused deliberately, his voice filled with malicious pleasure:

"Escano, you seem to really like children, don't you?"

I heard you used to be a UN "blue helmet," going to places like Gaza and Sudan—those godforsaken, war-torn places—to rescue children… Hah, do you really think you're some kind of sun that can dispel darkness?

"Now, I want to see whether you, the 'Sun,' will choose to save the hundreds of people on the Ferris wheel or the dozens of children on the roller coaster."

"Of course, if you also have the ability to save everyone at the same time."

"I'm leaving right now."

"If you can't do that, you'll just have to watch one of them die~"

"Hehehe."
