I, the Lord of the Fifth Heavenly Throne, flow out of all things!

"All... is meaningless."

Duanmulian's expression was as stiff and indifferent as that of a corpse, and even when she looked at the enemy, there was no trace of the enemy in her eyes.

He grabbed the pseudo-holy spear of Sakurai Kai in front of him, then made its mass and strength meaningless, and swung it in a circle and threw it at Sakurai Ling and Sakurai Musashi, causing the three of them to smash into each other.

Chi——!

Aurora's Blade glowed with grayish-white light, and the exploding blade force tore apart tens of thousands of dead souls.

Duanmulian stepped lightly, and the air exploded like thunder and the chilling murderous intent exploded like a violent volcanic eruption.

The blade obliterated the concept of distance, and in the blink of an eye, it slashed through Sakurai Rei and Sakurai Musashi who were trying to take action.

Sakurai Rei was cut in half from the forehead, while Sakurai Musashi was cut in half from the waist.

boom! ! !

And at the moment when the two men were slashed and their bodies were split apart, the air and the atmosphere vibrated and wailed.

"Drink——!"

Sakurai Jie's whole body burst out with astonishing martial power. He could be said to be the strongest person in the Sakurai family, and his desire was to be completely superior to other Sakurai clan members.

As he roared in a deep voice, the huge pseudo-holy spear in his hand seemed to have no weight at all, and it slashed towards Duanmulian again and again with great and ferocious power.

The tyranny of each other is still effective against the other, but it can no longer be considered a sure kill.

The rays stared at the opponent, and the waves of corrosion and nothingness directly acted on the opponent.

Then resist, offset, and continue the wrestling.

Bang! Clang! Choke!

The Hell of Nothingness and the Hell of Corruption are constantly colliding, and their blades are also clashing fiercely.

In a blink of an eye, the two blades of hell had already collided and clashed for thousands of rounds.

Stab, chop, sweep, cut, and smash.

Duanmulian attacks nearly ten thousand times per second, bursting out with astonishing martial power.

Each of these strikes has the power to break clouds, sever seas, collapse mountains, and crack the earth.

"[Ah, how beautiful, a figure actively seeking the dawn in an empty world. In my world, death is meaningless because it is a passing point.]"

Reinhardt, who was watching the battle and praising Duanmulian's transformation, had a smile of great joy on his handsome face.

He could understand and comprehend Duanmulian's nihilistic mentality.

After all, when he was a human, his life was very empty. There was no excitement in his life, and he didn't feel any sense of accomplishment. He was just simply living.

“【No one wants to live like a zombie. Everyone is looking for their own meaning.】”

Yes, everyone wants to truly live and experience the reality of being alive.

That's why Reinhardt fell into the evil path.

Because you were born into the wrong world, you have to create a world that makes you happy.

"boom!!!"

A deafening explosion sounded.

Looking at Shura Road again, I saw Duanmu Lian punching Sakurai Jie on the chest.

The blow was like a thunderbolt in the sky striking the earth, or as if hundreds or thousands of tons of explosives buried underground exploded at the same time.

The terrifying punch pierced through the body of Sakurai Kai beneath him, and the ground within a radius of hundreds of meters around the two of them exploded and sank.

At the same time, under the tremendous force, the soul turned into bricks, tiles and stones, which were violently lifted up by the overwhelming explosive force, and soared into the sky like a tsunami giant wolf!

CRACK——

Sakurai Jie's whole body cracked with a sharp sound, and when Duan Mulian slowly retracted his fist, his body also turned into countless pieces and dissipated into the pit.

Boom——!

Suddenly, the ground beneath Duanmulian's feet collapsed and broke apart, causing him to fall directly down.

"Ok?"

Before a second had passed since she felt the feeling of falling, the scene in front of Duanmulian's eyes changed drastically.

The bright and shining golden color turned into the gentle dusk color.

At the same time, the sound of waves crashing could be heard.

sea?

Restraining her arrogance, Duanmulian narrowed her eyes slightly and saw the scene in front of her clearly.

Before my eyes is the seaside at dusk.

The sound of waves crashing on the shore and the sound of sand underfoot are the only two sounds here.

The moment when the setting sun melts into the sea and dyes everything red is both illusory and vivid, as if frozen in this moment.

"here it is……"

Although she already knew where this place was, Duanmu Lian, who was here for the first time, still had an expression of confusion and vigilance on her face.

This is the singularity where Margaret Bluey, the Goddess of Dusk who was born to seek truth and is a pure-blooded god, is located.

As for why Duanmu Lian fell here from Shura Road, we have to ask Fujii Lian who is fighting hard in the outside world.

A few years ago in Suwahara, when Fujii Ren was fighting fiercely with the Holy Grail Valyria, the golden holy spear summoned by the opponent pierced Fujii Ren's body and pierced Margaret's soul.

The soul that was pierced by the holy spear naturally fell into the Golden Demon City.

Sand, sand, sand...

Duanmulian walked on this strange and beautiful beach, and the touch and sound of the sand as she lifted her feet echoed softly.

"I died in the dusk, and after death I saw dusk again..."

Turning his head, he looked at the eternal dusk in the sky and the sun that would never set. This was the boundary between the king of day and the king of night.

Turning his head again, what came into view was the extremely conspicuous guillotine.

Under and around the guillotine, there were thorns and red roses in full bloom.

On the hideous guillotine, there was a girl with her arms bound with chains.

The girl had beautiful long hair that was dyed golden brown by the fiery sunset. On her jade-white neck there was a scar that looked like a crown of thorns. Her coarse linen outfit was very shabby, but it had a strange beauty on her.

She closed her eyes, her face calm, and looked as if she was asleep as she lay quietly on the guillotine.

"L'Enfant De La Punition (Son of Sin), Marguerite (Marguerite)... Je Veux Le Sang, Sang, Sang, Et Sang (Blood, blood, blood, I want to drink blood)."

Looking at the girl in front of her, Duanmu Lian murmured softly, and subconsciously hummed a line of lyrics based on the ghost story novel she had read.

The blonde girl in front of him is worthy of being the most evil yet the most beautiful soul in the human race.

Beneath that beauty, Duanmulian sensed an extremely vicious murderous intent.

"Well……"

Maybe it was because of Duanmulian’s guillotine ballad, but Margaret’s eyelids trembled slightly and she let out an inaudible moan.

Then, she slowly opened her emerald green eyes, and when she looked down, she saw Duan Mulian, who was looking up at her quietly under the guillotine.

"...Cagliostro...Len?"

Mary looked at the young man under the guillotine with some doubt in her eyes. He looked no different from Fujii Ren, but he had a decisively different soul aura.

For a moment, she couldn't tell whether the young man in front of her was Cagliostro or Fujii Ren.

"Neither."

After hearing Mary's words, Duan Mu Lian knew that she had recognized the wrong person, so she rejected it in a cold tone.

After saying that, he turned around and walked in another direction without any reluctance.

After all, he had no feelings for Margaret, and such a woman was very dangerous. He was not Fujii Ren. If he was touched by the other party's beheading curse, his head would probably be moved away.

Margaret was born under the guillotine and was also a girl blessed by the guillotine.

She was born with a curse that would chop off the heads of anyone she touched, so anyone who approached or touched her would be beheaded and die.

Even during her lifetime, she was hated, tabooed and feared by people.

Therefore, she grew up without contact with anyone, and her personality was like that of a child.

One day when Margaret was 17 years old, she was finally sent to the guillotine, ending her life on the same guillotine where she was born.

But she did not die, and had no fear, because throughout her life, from birth to now, beheading was just a daily routine for her. It made no difference whether it was someone else or herself who was beheaded.

After the girl's death, her life as a human being ended, but it had no meaning.

Because at the moment the girl died as a human, she also began a new life as a 'god'.

It was precisely because the girl did not return to her mother's womb in accordance with the law of eternal recurrence after her death, breaking the theorem of eternal recurrence, that the Mercury Snake encountered the greatest unknown.

After that, Mercury Snake fell in love with her uncontrollably.

"Wait... don't go..."

Looking at Duanmulian's cold and lonely back as she left, Margaret subconsciously called out to her.

Once upon a time, only Cagliostro (Mercury Snake) was willing to contact her, so Mary also approached Mercury Snake as someone who was willing to contact her.

Then, there is Fujii Ren, who serves as his scabbard.

Now that she saw another 'Lian', it was impossible for Mary to say that she didn't care at all.

Click——

After Margaret woke up, the chains that bound her hands broke automatically.

The girl lifted her skirt with both hands, then jumped off the guillotine and trotted towards Duan Mulian.

Duan Mulian shuddered all over, and felt a great terror and murderous intent behind her, approaching her with innocent murderous intent.

A sharp and cold feeling was blowing cold wind towards his neck.

"Don't come over here!"

Duan Mulian ran quickly, turned her head and shouted with gritted teeth, trying to stop this silly guy.

Mary paused, an expression of pure confusion and idiocy appeared on her face.

But seeing that Duanmulian was running further and further away, Mary couldn't help but continue to lift her skirt and chase after her.

"Fuck, I told you not to come over here, don't you understand Japanese? ArrêTer (Stop)!"

Duanmulian, who couldn't find the exit, saw Mary approaching again and was so angry that she shouted at the woman in her native dialect.

Hearing this, Mary had an expression of grievance and dissatisfaction on her face, and muttered unhappily:

"Then don't run. If you don't run, I won't chase you."

Although she realized that the Lian in front of her was not the Lian she was familiar with.

But Mary still remembers her memories in Suwahara.

She was stabbed by the Golden Holy Spear, which drove her soul here.

Now that she had seen Duanmu Lian, she also wanted to know how Fujii Lian was doing now, and she thought that Duanmu Lian could contact her just like Fujii Lian.

“[Hehehe…]”

The Mercury Snake sat on its seat, looking down at the Twilight Singularity. Seeing Duanmulian running around in a panic after being chased by Margaret, it let out a rather hateful laugh from its throat, with amusement flashing in its eyes.

Originally, after Margaret was separated from Fujii Ren's body, she fell into the Golden Demon Castle and fell into a deep sleep.

Unexpectedly, Duanmulian accidentally fell into the singularity where Mary was and woke Mary up.

The way it looked now, his beloved Margaret must have mistakenly thought that Duanmulian was also a "toy" he had sent to her.

He even thought that Duanmu Lian could have normal contact with him.

Duanmu Lian also learned from books that Margaret cannot be touched and will be beheaded if touched.

Although there were some misunderstandings, seeing that the goddess seemed happy and expectant, Mercury Snake gave a thumbs up to Duanmulian who was trying to avoid Mary.

Well done to please the goddess, well done!
