Instead of creating anything, it began to frantically disrupt Kurumi's original life cycle.
The cells begin to proliferate malignantly under its stimulation, and then quickly die and tear because they cannot withstand this huge external energy.
A life-saving scalpel, sharpest of all, tearing everything apart from the inside, impossible to defend against, impossible to dodge.
……
Time, the deletion ended, and normal flow resumed.
Kurumi staggered slightly, barely managing to regain her balance.
She felt an unprecedented, excruciating pain emanating from her back, as if it were tearing her soul apart.
She glanced again at the man opposite her, whose face had once again adopted that "everything is under control" smile.
Her clever, elven mind, after personally experiencing this incomprehensible attack, finally understood everything.
"I see."
Her voice trembled slightly from the intense pain and carried an endless self-mockery of her own foolish arrogance.
"Able to predict the 'future'..."
"In front of you, who can 'delete time'..."
She raised her head, her complex eyes filled with relief and resignation.
"It's completely meaningless."
Chapter 135 The Emperor's Declaration
"It's pointless."
When Kurumi Tokisaki uttered this declaration, which sounded almost like a surrender, in a tone full of self-mockery and resentment, the tension in the air seemed to dissipate.
She clutched the wound in her back and staggered back half a step. Her poignant appearance was enough to evoke pity in anyone with a weak will.
However, Su Chen looked at her, but his face did not show the slightest hint of the relaxed expression a victor should have.
Instead, his brows slowly furrowed.
Something is wrong.
It's not right.
The instinct to fight, that beast-like keen intuition, was frantically ringing alarm bells deep in his mind.
This warning sign doesn't stem from an external threat, but rather from a deeper sense of unease about a break in the logical chain.
Given this woman's pride and her near-bug-level immortality, no matter how severe the injury, she could instantly recover by absorbing her own "past." There's no way she would give up so easily because of a single tactical setback.
For her, failure was merely a stepping stone to the next victory.
So, what is the purpose of her current posture?
So, where exactly did things go wrong?
Su Chen's brain was working at a speed that surpassed that of a supercomputer, disassembling, analyzing, and reassembling every detail of the battle.
My [Crimson King] can indeed erase the "process" that she sees through [futuristic vision], making it impossible for her to avoid my attacks.
This is a fact.
However, this does not change the fact that she can see the future. She still knows the outcome of the future.
As long as she can see the future, she will always be invincible. Unless…
A wildly audacious idea flashed through his mind, illuminating all the fog.
Unless, from the very beginning, she had already foreseen that I would use time erasure to attack her future.
She saw a future where she would be struck by the Crimson King. But instead of avoiding it, she turned the tables on him.
She deliberately created an opening for me. She intentionally let me inflict a heavy blow on her, making her appear to admit defeat.
The purpose was to lure me into a moment of relaxation, even if it was only for a fraction of a second, after I thought I had completely destroyed her advantage in the future.
This creates the best, and only, chance for her next, truly fatal blow.
The moment this thought crossed Su Chen's mind, his back was instantly soaked with a layer of cold sweat.
What a scary woman.
What a terrifying scheme.
This is no longer a simple battle; it is a silent game played on the chessboard of time, with the future as the pieces.
And he himself almost became that self-righteous king who was about to be generalized.
Without a second thought, he immediately activated his ultimate trump card, which was also capable of "foreseeing the future" and belonged to emperors.
Epitaph
hum-
On his forehead, where the skin was already smooth, a small, eerie "second face," filled with an aura of fate and ending, seemed to be both crying and mocking, flashed by in an instant.
The next instant, that undeniable future that would be here in a dozen seconds, was branded into his mind like a red-hot iron.
He saw that Kurumi, who should have been seriously injured and had a tragic expression, had her self-mocking expression vanish in an instant, replaced by a wicked smile full of triumph, like that of a witch.
She aimed the flintlock pistol, which had been hidden beneath her spirit dress, at a ghostly, eerie angle—an angle completely unexpected—at her only blind spot: her chest, where she had let her guard down.
From that dark gun muzzle, spewed out a final bullet, a bullet that contained all the remaining power of her time, powerful enough to distort cause and effect.
He was hit head-on by that bullet, a huge bloody hole was blown open in his chest, and all his life force was swallowed up by the power of time, a certain death.
"!"
It turned out to be the case.
Is this your real purpose?
What a brilliant move – “predicting my prediction”.
They used a failed prediction to induce the illusion that "my counter-prediction has succeeded," thus paving the way for the real game-winning shot.
The future seen in the epitaph is absolute.
It's a script that's already set in stone and about to be performed.
It cannot be changed.
He will still die.
unless…
He was able to arrive in that inevitable future, before it officially came to pass.
Delete it once again, leading to that future time.
……
“.‖ Hehe…hehehehe…”
real world.
Kurumi looked at the man who had suddenly fallen into a brief daze after severely injuring her and smiled.
She knew that the other person must have seen it too.
With his abilities, he must have also seen the magnificent, final script of death that she herself had written for him.
But it's no use now.
So what if we see it? The future cannot be changed.
It's too late.
"It's over, Mr. Su Chen."
She slowly raised the flintlock pistol (Liao Nuo Zhao) that she had been preparing to fire, aiming the muzzle precisely at the absolute blind spot that she had calculated using her future vision.
Her finger was about to pull the final trigger that would decide the outcome.
however--
Just 0.01 seconds before she was about to pull the trigger.
That man should have been trapped in a state of paralysis and despair.
Su Chen slowly raised his head.
His face showed none of the fear or struggle one would expect after witnessing a "certain future."
Instead, there was a smile full of pity and mockery, as if watching a self-important clown.
His voice was calm, yet it sounded like a final decree, imbued with the meaning of divine judgment, clearly echoing across the desolate battlefield.
"King Crimson!"
Chapter 136 The Prisoner of Time
"KingCrimson".
The moment Su Chen's imperial declaration, like a final judgment, resounded.
Kurumi Tokisaki's vision of the future is comparable to that of a god.
collapsed.
"No...no...impossible..."
She watched as the man before her regained his devilish, composed smile, and felt her supposedly "sure-fire" final bullet trace an extremely bizarre, forcibly distorted trajectory in her vision before finally shooting into the empty distance.
Her heart, always brimming with confidence and composure, seemed to hold the entire world in the palm of her hand.
At this moment, they were completely overwhelmed by an unprecedented, chilling torrent of fear and bewilderment.
why?
Why is it?
Why is it that this man was able to "predict" my ultimate killing move—using himself as bait—once again?
What kind of monster is he?
Could it be that he…
Could it be that he can...see the future?
And...can see further than me?
This terrifying thought, which she could not accept no matter what and was enough to shake the very foundation of her existence, took root and sprouted wildly in her heart like the most vicious seed.
Ultimately, it utterly destroyed her last pride as the most wicked elf.
A prophet who wields power over time and believes in the future discovers that there exists a being who can stand in a higher dimension of time than her, arbitrarily "deleting" and "foreshadowing" her future, like a clumsy theatrical script.
Her faith ceased to exist.
"Ah...ah..."
From her mouth came incoherent, soulless cries, like those of a broken doll.
Her wine-red right eye, which had been filled with a murderous intent, completely lost its luster at this moment.
It became empty and bewildering.
It was as if, through everything before my eyes, I saw a futureless, utterly meaningless end.
Her spirit collapsed.
……
Time resumed its normal flow.
Looking at the girl in front of him, who had fallen into a state of complete disorientation due to the collapse of her faith, Su Chen gave her no more chance to catch her breath.
Because he knew that to deal with this ultimate tank with "immortality" abilities, any mercy would be cruel to himself.
His figure flashed, as if teleporting, and he appeared silently in front of the petite figure who was still standing there.
Then, he slowly raised his right hand, and a wisp of innate Qi, powerful enough to shatter steel, condensed at his fingertips, transforming into the sharpest and most precise hand blade.
