Chapter 558: New World

In the room, looking at the blonde lady lying on the bed in front of him, Sakai Yuuji was quite at a loss.

His father works away from home all year round, so his mother is the only one at home. For him who usually doesn't bring any classmates home, it is really a bit too exciting to bring back a pair of twin lolita and a royal sister in one go. .

The only thing that made him feel lucky was that he had expected to come back very late today, so he had told his mother in advance. When he sneakily returned home with three people and two Red World Demon Kings, , his mother had gone to bed early, but left some food for him.

Otherwise, if his mother really encountered this scene, he probably wouldn't be able to explain it even if he had 100 mouths...

"This place is too small, not as good as the hotel I rented before. 』

After taking a look at the surrounding environment, Marcosias, who was placed on the desk, spoke with some dissatisfaction.

"Hey, Heaven and Earth Tribulation Fire, is this a good place to stay as you said?" 』

〖Yeah? But I personally still think it’s pretty good. 〗

Unlike Marcosias, who was a little impatient, Alastair's tone, who was also placed on the table, seemed a little calm.

〖No more gossip, let’s talk about some important things while the two of them go to take a shower. There are some things that I need you to help me analyze. 〗

"Important... Oh, yes, yes, what is the origin of the red demon king contracted in the kid's body?" Why is she able to borrow your power even though she is clearly not your contractor? Also, why did you let the hunter go before? 』

After being stunned for a moment, Maxias quickly reacted.

No matter it is the Red World Demon King or the Red World King, none of them who are born with powerful souls are simple. Although less than half an hour has passed since the first meeting until now, he has already discovered it at such a close distance. Something strange happened to Mu Qingzhi.

So taking advantage of this free time, he simply asked all the questions in his mind in one breath.

...As for his question, Alastair simply replied.

〖The existence of the contract in her body is the ritual snake. 〗

"The ritual snake?" What...fuck! ? That madman! ? 』

After a moment of confusion, Marcusias's voice suddenly became louder several times as he finally recalled what the Sacrificial Serpent was, and even the whole book trembled violently.

"Isn't He already sealed between the two worlds? When did he run out! ? So dangerous...what, is something wrong? If nothing happens, just get out of here, I'm here, don't have any bad intentions. 』

Looking at Yuji Sakai who suddenly walked over and sat down at the desk, and took a special look at Marjorie who was sleeping soundly on the bed beside him, Marcosias' tone was rather unkind.

"Well... I just want to know something."

Stretching out his hand, Sakai Yuji scratched his head in embarrassment.

"What kind of heinous thing did that ritual snake do? If He just wants to create a "new world" to give those "disciples" a place to live, shouldn't we support it? After all, this is how the world will look like. Humans don’t have to worry about..."

"Hey, you naive guy. 』

Before Yuji Sakai could finish his sentence, Marcosias interrupted him with disdain.

"What do you think the new world is?" A place where only the Red World's followers live? No, the real new world is a replica of the current world. There are also humans in that new world. The only difference is that there is no fire mist there, only disciples who can eat and keep humans in captivity. It is indeed a paradise for gangsters, but at the same time, it is also a hell for humans. 』

"hell……"

Listening to Marcosias's narration, Sakai Yuji couldn't help but froze.

——The other party’s story was completely different from the new world he imagined.

"Of course, in fact, these have nothing to do with us. After all, the purpose of Fire Mist's existence is not to protect human beings. But if that new world is allowed to form, the already fragile balance will further collapse. Under the chain reaction, If it affects the whole body, it will gradually affect the current world and even the red world, eventually leading to the destruction of these two worlds. This is why those ancient fire mist people did not hesitate to pay such a tragic price to seal each other. 』

As if he was happy to see this expression on his face, Marcosias continued to speak in a wicked way.

"It turns out that you are actually puzzled by our actions to stop them. Not to mention that in the new world created, that world will only repeat the tragedy in this world, causing the original shaky balance to further collapse. You Do you know what price He paid for this world in order to create the paradise of His disciples, the "Great Lock", in ancient times? 』

"...at what price?"

"One hundred and twenty-nine cities, four plains - everything that exists there will be enclosed and sealed with the 'power of existence' of the offerings collected from nearby hunting, and they will be tightened and reinforced to prevent them from being scattered. , creating an independent barrier that circulates on its own - this is the ritual of the "Great Binding". 』

Marcosias sneered as he recounted these events.

『The collapse of the world? The destruction of balance? Or the safety of the Red World and the present world? He doesn't care about these things. He only cares about those disciples. After all, He himself is the existence that appears in the world because he senses the wishes of the disciples of the Red World. Even if those wishes may lead to the destruction of the world, He doesn't care at all. 』

"………"

Sitting at the desk, Yuji Sakai fell silent.

I don't know the whole picture, so I won't comment.

... Just like what Maxias said before, he was indeed too naive.

『So, what's going on? Let's not talk about when He came back. Why did you two choose a pair of twins as your contracted parties? 』

After confronting Yuji Sakai, Marcosias did not forget his business and continued to ask Alastair.

『I believe you should know better than me the impact that His return will have on the world. How can you tolerate His nonsense? 』

〖...It's a long story. 〗

After a long silence, Alastair sighed.

〖Strictly speaking, all of this was planned by Him, and this conspiracy against me may have been traced back to more than ten years ago, or even hundreds of years ago...〗
