I am the Executioner Dragon, but a cute mod

After a moment of silence, the two sides looked at each other and surprisingly reached an agreement.

Before long, Lilith broke the silence, clamoring for the snake to demonstrate the shield-poke technique again, saying she wanted to use this method to clear all the bosses without taking damage...

In the days that followed, Amelia continued to lead Snake and Zoe in doing housework as usual, while Lilith continued to eat after waking up, play after eating, and sleep when she was tired. As for Zoe and Snake, they bickered from time to time, and in a safe environment with no shortage of food, there was a possibility that they might develop from sworn enemies into close friends.

Even in this kind of life, So still did not forget her grand plan. She would often take advantage of her free time to go down the mountain to capture cursed spirits and sign contracts with powerful people.

Sometimes Amelia would accompany So down the mountain, sometimes it was a snake; in any case, with their help, So's plan was progressing steadily.

Unbeknownst to many, nearly a century has passed since Sukuna's death. Nevertheless, Sukuna still keeps track of the whereabouts of Sukuna's former students in his spare time.

As far as So is concerned, in the ten years following Sukuna's death, his students quickly split into two factions due to differing ideologies: the left faction led by Rime and the right faction led by an unknown sorcerer.

The left wing fully inherited Su Nuo's ideas, advocating change and abolishing the old system, while the right wing clearly knew that the chances of successful change were extremely small, and as a privileged class, they chose to maintain the existing order.

Thus, due to their differing ideologies, the two sides began a civil war that lasted for a century. This civil war severely weakened both sides, with the right wing nearly annihilating the left wing. However, at this time, the imperial court, which had been observing the situation, chose to send troops to completely eradicate the ideas left behind by Su Nuo.

To protect themselves, the right wing had no choice but to leave the country and recuperate in the Ryukyu Islands. Little is known about what happened after that, though it is said that the right wing established a small country on one of the Ryukyu Islands, but given the extremely primitive transportation, this cannot be verified…

Hundreds of years have passed in the blink of an eye. So has changed countless bodies, sealed countless cursed spirits, and signed contracts with countless powerful beings.

For some reason, time always seemed to fly by when he spent time with Lilith and the others. So had gotten used to doing housework in the morning and being on his way to catch cursed spirits in the afternoon.

He even began to enjoy this kind of life, thinking it was a good way to pass the time.

One day, after Thor threw the trash into the incinerator outside the villa, he wiped non-existent sweat from his forehead. In recent years, his understanding of the outside world was not as clear as it was hundreds of years ago. Even so, he still learned about the rise of "Thor".

Lu Ziyun, a martial arts fanatic, possesses the power of lightning magic and the ability to achieve a guaranteed hit by utilizing positive and negative charges. Even without a domain, he made a name for himself in the Edo period.

So Thor decided to meet this Thor. Before leaving, he specifically looked for the snake and Amelia, hoping that someone could accompany him if possible.

However, Amelia, to prevent the presence of Zoe and the snake from stealing her title as the best maid, has taken on most of the housework and is currently too busy to spare any time.

As for the snake, over the past few hundred years, his cultivation has greatly increased, and he no longer walks around with a snake's head. However, his aesthetic sense is something that Suo cannot compliment. To put it simply, he is extremely ugly and does not even realize it.

Even though the snake had nothing to do, the memory of being chased and scolded for being ugly when he accompanied Suo down the mountain a while ago made him somewhat afraid of the world down the mountain, which led him to start to become a recluse.

Suo felt helpless about this, but it did not stop him from going down the mountain. So after packing his things and saying goodbye, Suo resolutely went down the mountain and asked around until he found the village where Lu Ziyun lived.

Suo originally thought it would take a long time to find Lu Ziyun, but when he arrived at the village where Lu Ziyun lived, he immediately saw a blue-haired boy with a bun hairstyle sitting at the entrance of the village, as if waiting for something.

"So you are Thor Lu Ziyunyi?"

Suo approached the boy and asked him this question.

The young man looked up at Suo, sensing the cursed power within him, then stood up and said calmly:

"Are you here to challenge me too?"

The boy did not deny that he was Lu Ziyun. As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding air became restless, and he was ready for battle.

"Wait, I'm not here to fight."

Sensing Lu Ziyun's intention, Suo stopped his next action. His tone softened, and he spoke in a conciliatory manner:

"I'm just here to talk to you, I mean no harm."

"No malicious intent?"

Lu Ziyun glanced at Suo hesitantly, seemingly puzzled by his words, but he saw no sign of lying in Suo. He then sat back down on the large rock at the village entrance and patted the empty space beside him.

"Come, have a seat."

Suo stepped forward and plopped down. Seeing Lu Ziyun's still-childish appearance, he swallowed his words about signing the contract and, as if possessed, uttered:

"Excuse my bluntness, but as the renowned Thor, you look far too young."

"Is he young?"

Lu Ziyun seemed a little dazed, as if lost in memories, but he quickly came back to his senses and continued:

"If I remember correctly, I should be seventeen years old."

This sentence contained a lot of information. While being shocked by Lu Ziyun's age, Suo asked in confusion:

"You remember correctly? Don't you care about your age?"

Lu Ziyun nodded slightly, but his gaze was fixed on the sky filled with white clouds. He was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses.

"Besides this power, I have nothing left..."

Chapter 100: Lu Ziyun's Past

Looking at the blue sky and white clouds, Lu Ziyun's thoughts drifted back to more than ten years ago, to the days before she had awakened her magic.

That period was uneventful, without a constant stream of challengers or countless life-or-death duels. He only needed to enjoy the breeze on the ridges of the fields and watch the clouds change shape under the trees.

It seems that only during this period of time did he truly feel alive.

"What brings you here?"

When Lu Ziyun shifted her gaze to Suo, those eyes, which could even be described as empty, made Suo feel as if he were facing a person who had lost his soul.

Suo immediately realized that Lu Ziyun possessed a past with a story to tell. In order to understand what he had experienced, Suo temporarily put aside the idea of ​​forming a contract with him and asked:

"I want to know what kind of past you have that you're known as Thor."

"My past?"

Upon hearing Suo's words, Lu Ziyun's gaze changed; she looked at him as if he were a strange person.

“Over the years, you’re the first guy to be interested in my past. After all, other challengers came to me just to kill me and make a name for themselves. Even if some of them had the same idea as you, they’re all dead.”

Lu Ziyun only sighed, but the old fox Suo sensed something else. He gave a wry smile and said without any hesitation:

Can I take this as a threat?

Lu Ziyun remained silent for two seconds. He couldn't understand Suo's thought process, assuming that Suo simply didn't want to hear anything more, and felt deeply apologetic.

"I'm sorry, you probably aren't interested in my memories before I awakened the spell. So let me start from when I was six years old, when a monster from the mountain came to the village and ate my parents..."

Lu Ziyun calmly recounted Suo's tragic past. He lost his parents at the age of six and barely survived by scavenging garbage. After accidentally awakening a magical technique, he vowed to prevent monsters from coming down the mountain to eat people from happening again.

To hone his martial arts skills, Lu Ziyun often fought against sorcerers from several surrounding villages. Although he was often defeated, he had a strong fighting talent. After only two years of awakening his magic, he earned the title of "strongest" in the village.

After her name spread, many people wanted to challenge Lu Ziyun to a duel, all hoping to use her as a stepping stone to a bigger stage. However, their presence actually increased Lu Ziyun's fame.

It was around this time that the title "Thor" gradually spread...

Hearing this, Suo was silent for a long time. He had seen countless people like Lu Ziyun with unhappy childhoods, but he had never encountered a tone like Lu Ziyun's, which sounded like she was just telling a story.

"...You're such a strange person, with such a past. Shouldn't you pour out your grievances to me and then fiercely curse the injustice of the world?"

To this, Lu Ziyun remained indifferent, as if she didn't care about anything:

"You're the second person to say this to me. My answer is: shedding tears over this kind of thing is just a waste of time. The tragedy can't be undone, and the dead can't be brought back to life."

This statement deeply shocked Suo, not because it contained any profound truth, but because he felt that such words should not have come from a child's mouth.

Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard a whooshing sound in his ear. Realizing something was wrong, he quickly turned his head, and an arrow whizzed past his head and embedded itself in the ground a foot in front of him. The force was so great that only the tail feathers were exposed.

Seeing this, Su frowned and asked:

"This is?"

Upon seeing the arrow, Lu Ziyun looked apologetic:

"Sorry, it must be my challenger who has arrived. I'll be right back."

As she spoke, Lu Ziyun jumped off the large rock and headed in the direction from which the arrows had come, as if she were not going to fight but simply taking a stroll.

Suo had thought Lu Ziyun wouldn't be back for a while, but his speed was beyond his expectations. If Suo hadn't noticed the blood on his arms and elbows, he would have thought Lu Ziyun had just taken a stroll around the village entrance. Suo couldn't help but sigh:

[Truly living up to the name of Thor, such speed is truly terrifying...]

So didn't inquire about the details of the fight. He was more interested in the answer to the question he hadn't asked earlier than the life or death of the challenger:

"You said not long ago that I was the second person to care about you, so can you tell me who the first one was?"

"Oh, the first person to care about me is of course my childhood sweetheart."

Lu Ziyun sat back down on the rock quite naturally. As he spoke, a gentle look appeared on his face. Before Suo could ask any further questions, he continued, "..."

"Speaking of her, we were very good friends. We grew up together. After my parents died, her parents didn't want her to play with me anymore because I was an orphan."

But she still secretly brought me food every day. I didn't want to cry for my parents' deaths, so she cried for me, saying I was suffering too much. But I didn't tell her that with her there, life was alright.

Upon hearing this, Suo finally understood why Lu Ziyun could speak so casually about her background; it turned out she had a childhood sweetheart who had always been by her side.

The fire of gossip in Su's heart slowly rose:

"And what about your childhood sweetheart? Did you two get together?"

"It's done...?"

Faced with Suo's expectations, Lu Ziyun cruelly shook her head, an answer that surprised Suo:

"You two have feelings for each other, and now that you're the renowned Thor, how come you're not together? Is it because her parents don't approve?"

However, to Suo's surprise, Lu Ziyun shook his head again and said calmly:

"Back then, after I made a name for myself as the 'strongest' in the surrounding villages, many people challenged me. One of them was a wicked villain who committed adultery and kidnapping. I disdained to fight such a person, so I refused."

But he actually killed my childhood sweetheart to duel me, skinned her, and made a challenge letter to send to me… In the end, I still killed him, but it was too late.”

At this point, Lu Ziyun paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and continued:

"If I had accepted his challenge back then, she wouldn't have died."

Suo stared intently at Lu Ziyun, keenly observing the faint glimmer of tears in the corner of his eye:

Are you crying?

Lu Ziyun raised her head and said calmly:

"No, I didn't."

Su asked again:

"Really not?"

Lu Ziyun paused for two seconds, then finally said:

"Just a little bit..."

Then a gentle breeze came, and the sound of branches and leaves rustling through the woods filled the air. Suo didn't say anything to comfort him, but just sat down next to Lu Ziyun and watched the clouds in the sky change shape over time.
