My wife's name is Platycodon

But even if I refuse, she probably won't care and will just follow me.

In fact, he has a good impression of Kikyo. She is independent and firm. Her essence is now a vengeful spirit and should be full of resentment, but she has regained her clarity of mind with her own will.

She is very active and never talkative. She has a delicate and beautiful appearance, long hair like a princess, and she jumps left and right in his strike zone.

He is a free and easy person, but he has never encountered such a situation.

"What do you think? It won't do you any harm as long as I'm watching you." Kikyo's eyes seemed half closed, and she didn't look at Hades Shura again. She had a calm and gentle temperament.

It is indeed harmless. Shura of the Underworld looked at Kikyo and felt a little moved.

Platycodon knows a lot of knowledge and is especially good at enlightening others and relieving their psychology. I have to admit that some people are indeed very charming and it is a pleasure just to talk to them.

After he figured out the situation, he no longer hesitated, but in order to avoid being exposed, he still pretended to be reserved and pretended to be hesitant.

After a long pause, he said, "Since you are willing to follow me, I will give you this opportunity."

Kikyo did not refute the word "follow". He knew what Hades Shura was thinking, just as Hades Shura knew what she was thinking.

But there is no need to point it out explicitly, as long as there is a tacit understanding between each other.

"Then I will follow your orders."

Kikyo bent forward, leaning at a forty-five-degree angle. Sometimes she really cooperated with Hades Shura's playfulness and tolerated his behavior which was not considered rude with her heart.

Kikyo didn't feel humiliated, but found it very interesting and felt like they were joking with each other.

Kikyo had no childhood, and her growing up period was not easy. She had no peers around her, but she did have a sister who was eight years younger than her. But she was Feng's protector, so she was always under pressure, and few people could play with her.

And the Asura of the Underworld obviously enjoyed it very much, and felt that ten thousand flattering words from those people could not compare to Kikyo's one word.

They set a time and agreed to leave in three days.

The two of them were not attached to this village. Although Kikyo liked living here very much, she was incompatible with humans after all. She had realized that when her secret was discovered, she would leave sooner or later.

At dawn the next day, Kikyo told the villagers, which disappointed everyone. The umbrella of protection was gone. They also knew that Hades Shura and Kikyo were just passers-by, temporarily staying here, and would not stay here forever.

Shura of the Underworld heard crying coming from next door, it seemed to be the girl named Xiaoye.

She was reluctant to let Kikyo go and hoped that this gentle priestess could stay for a while longer.

Kikyo comforted her patiently. They had developed feelings for each other during this time. Xiaoye had always kept the secret for her, which made Kikyo treat her very intimately.

But she has more important things to do. Xiaoye is still a mortal and has no power, so she cannot get involved.

"I'll come to see you again when I have the chance." Kikyo comforted Xiaoye with kindness.

"Is what Sister Kikyo said true?"

Kikyo nodded gently, but she didn't know when this opportunity would come.

"Then we have a date."

Kikyo finally shook hands with Sayo and made a promise.

Two days passed in a flash, and Hades Shura and Kikyo did not leave with anything.

The Hades Shura was still dressed the same way as when he came, with his hands empty, half of his body naked, and black drawstring bloomers on his lower body.

Platycodon has almost no demand for external substances.

Almost all the villagers came to see Kikyo off.

Although they were afraid of the Shura of the Underworld, they still stepped forward to see Kikyo off. They respected this witch who had helped so much without asking for anything in return, and prayed in their hearts that the gods would bless her.

Kikyo was very grateful for their kindness, she truly felt this pure and simple telekinesis.

Despite several polite refusals, the enthusiastic villagers still sent them out of the forest.

Stopping at a certain boundary, Kikyo stood there and told the villagers that the Shura of the Underworld had set up a special barrier here that could disperse all monsters, and even the most powerful monsters would take a detour.

If you continue to move forward, you will be out of the barrier.

It was originally a field-like thing made by the Hades Shura who wanted to live in seclusion and didn't want to fight a life-and-death battle. He shed a lot of blood, which was sprinkled around the village, forming a unique aura that ordinary people couldn't sense, but was very deadly to monsters. Ghosts and monsters avoided it like snakes and scorpions. Even if a big monster came, they would not enter because of disgust.

It will be very safe here, probably for about three or four years, and then the smell of blood will gradually fade away.

The villagers took note of everything Kikyo said, stopped here, and bowed to Hades Shura from a distance.

Kikyo came to the underworld Shura.

He was a little dissatisfied: "I didn't set it up for them."

This is the truth. If he were here, he would kill all the monsters one by one until they dared not to attack anymore.

So in the final analysis, this arrangement is to prevent him from continuing to kill.

Kikyo couldn't deny what he said.

It was indeed not arranged for the villagers. If Hades Shura really wanted to do it, he should have done it on the first day he arrived, instead of after he met the monk Harumi who wanted to purify him.

She smiled slightly, but there was no need to point it out loud, otherwise it would make the person feel embarrassed.

To get along with him, you not only need to cater to his preferences, but also need patience and a little sense of propriety.

But even so, when Hades Shura saw Kikyo's smile, he knew that she knew everything and felt a little angry.

"They are seeing you off so enthusiastically now. I really hope they could know your condition." said the Asura of the Underworld regretfully.

Kikyo disagreed. She looked at Hades Shura and said, "Don't question human nature, otherwise you will always be disappointed."

Hades Shura said indifferently: "Because human nature itself will disappoint people."

Kikyo smiled, as if she was looking at her stubborn brother, her eyes were very gentle: "It's because you want humanity to disappoint you, Hades Shura."

Hades Shura did not continue speaking. He placed his hands behind his head. His expression was not one of anger, but of relaxation and comfort.

Chapter 33: What Should Have Begun

On the road.

Three hours have passed since we set out.

The two of them walked very quickly, climbing over two mountains and arriving at another area.

The perception of Hades Shura is very strong, and he can easily detect the traces of monsters hiding everywhere, so he will disappear from time to time to start hunting.

But the process is not slow. He usually comes back within four or five minutes, covered in blood, just like his previous action pattern.

But the only difference is that you can't do whatever you want and go wherever you want. After killing the monsters, you have to return to Kikyo obediently.

Kikyo walked as usual and did not follow his footsteps closely, but observed the actions of Hades Shura in her own way.

She asked curiously, "Have you always come here this way?"

She watched the actions of Hades Shura and suddenly had a very strange feeling.

Because in this era, few people would actively look for monsters, and they usually stayed away from them.

To monsters, humans are very fragile creatures. Their speed, strength, and endurance are inferior to those of monsters. Once the two meet, humans will definitely be eaten.

Even though there are many wizards traveling around, exorcising demons and monsters, they are still insignificant compared to the human population.

Moreover, even an exorcist with magical powers cannot guarantee a victory over a monster.

Whenever they encounter a monster, it is a test of life and death for these exorcists.

But the appearance of Shura from the Underworld overturned this common sense.

The Asura of the Underworld watched as the demon blood that had spilled on his body gradually disappeared and was swallowed up by his skin, leaving only some impurities that had not been completely absorbed. When the wind blew them away, they disappeared into the air.

Heat surged through his body, and his strength and stamina increased slightly.

Hearing Kikyo's question, he nodded: "After all, these monsters will not gather together for no reason for me to kill. They are scattered all over the place and need to be found one by one."

It sounds troublesome, but Hades Shura is already used to it.

"Won't this make you a target of monsters?"

Monsters also have their own communication channels to transmit information, and those monsters that are truly intelligent will most likely not allow the appearance of a human who specifically hunts them.

"Not at first, but later on, I was surrounded and attacked several times."

The Hades Shura said, "Each time there were at least seven or eight monsters, and at most dozens. Although it was stressful, I still survived in the end and treated all those monsters as nutrients."

He said it lightly, but Kikyo knew a lot about monsters and knew how dangerous it would be if they were targeted.

When she was guarding the Four Souls Jade before, a large number of monsters also came together. The scene was so overwhelming that it blocked out the sky and the sun, and evil winds were blowing. Even though she was born with strong spiritual power, she was almost exhausted.

But the crisis experienced by the Asura of the Underworld is no less than his own.

She was puzzled. "Don't you feel tired?"

"It's okay." Hades Shura said ambiguously. He was different from others. He had a system and he was not a useless good-for-nothing. If he didn't seize the time to strengthen himself and become a real strong man, would he continue to waste his life?

For two years, I almost never stopped.

How many were killed? I can’t remember exactly, hundreds? Thousands?

There were both humans and monsters, but there was no doubt that nearly a thousand humans were killed, and more than two thousand monsters.

Maybe the number is not accurate, but it is not far off.

The Asura of the Underworld regarded this behavior as a way to level up and gain points, but he didn't expect that while practicing, he would become obsessed with it.

That’s right. Life is not a game after all. There is a difference between NPC and life. Also, playing games won’t allow you to develop a physical reaction that is fatal to every move of the enemy.

When a butcher becomes skilled at slaughtering pigs, his first reaction when he sees a pig will be how to cut it. However, when the person is replaced by a pig, the butcher's instinct will not change at all.

After several hours of practice, Hades Shura gradually regained that feeling.

He opened the system panel he had not seen for a long time.

The familiar panel style is simple, with no decoration around it, and it is empty. In the upper left corner is the model of yourself as the host, which is convenient for checking various statuses. In the lower left corner are the function options provided by the system.

Functions such as backpack, mailbox, store, community, customer service... are all gray and unusable. They must have been blocked, so Hades Shura has never actually used these functions.

As for the right side of the interface, there are eye-catching attribute values.

【Level: 9】

【Body: 95】

【Qi: 99】

【God: 98】

[Remaining enhancement points: 6.1]

It's still the same as before, there are only strengthening points. I have killed some monsters these days, and I got 0.1 strengthening points, which is better than nothing.

When I first got the system, I was at level 1, and all three attributes were less than double digits, and my quality in all aspects was extremely poor. But two years later, I was promoted to level , and the values ​​in all aspects increased tenfold.

The three-dimensional attributes cover a wide range and reflect comprehensive qualities.

Physical fitness includes strength, endurance, speed, resistance, recovery, adaptability and other aspects.

Qi is the total amount of body energy, which includes internal strength, magic power, demonic power, and divine power.

God is spiritual power, representing will, induction, sixth sense, etc.

It is worth mentioning that the level is not based on experience points, but will automatically upgrade when the three-dimensional attributes reach a certain critical point. When all three of his attributes exceed 100, Hades Shura estimates that he can reach level 10.

Each level increases the attribute by ten points, so a total of thirty points is required to upgrade one level.

But there is no reward for upgrading itself. Hades Shura himself speculated that for the system, the process of upgrading is already a reward.

Therefore, Hades Shura himself has been maintaining the three-dimensional data balance and intends to be an equilateral triangle warrior.

Each time he upgrades, the points represent neither a simple multiple increase nor an exponential increase. The system has its own precise algorithm. Due to the lack of actual accurate data, Hades Shura still hasn't figured out how much his power increases with each upgrade.

The reinforcement points come from the lives killed by the Hades Shura, whether they are monsters, humans, or other life forms. In short, after killing, the system will absorb the energy of the dead life in some way and convert it into reinforcement points.

It seems that upgrading is not complicated, but when Hades Shura first got the system, he could get a full 1 point of strengthening points for killing a wild boar even though he was weak.

Now, with his physical fitness improved, a wild boar can't even provide 0.01 points.
