Chapter 824: Secret Betrayal
Sunrise, Suiran, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Kyoto.
Shreli was wrapped in a bath towel and soaking in the artificial hot spring in the courtyard outside the private room, holding a fashion magazine.
This is one of the most expensive hotels in Kyoto, located at the foot of Arashiyama. It is said that in the past, this hotel was used by rising prime ministers to receive dignitaries from other countries.
Although she held the magazine in her hand, Shrili didn't actually read it at all.
She put her long hair on her head, and hung a small pendant around her snow-white neck. The blue gem hung on her collarbone. She rubbed the small gem on the pendant with her thumb and index finger, as if she had other thoughts. .
At this time, the doorbell of the guest room rang several times, waking her up from her thoughts.
Without her getting up to open the door, the door lock was broken and a man in a black suit walked in.
He has short and medium white hair, wears sunglasses, his skin is paler than Shrili's, and his expression is cold, giving people a sense of alienation that prevents strangers from getting close to him.
Shreli did not get up. She put the magazine aside, leaned against the wall of the artificial pool, and sank a little lower. The water line reached the gap between her breasts, just enough to fill it.
The white-haired man walked to the yard and stood by the pool, hugging his chest and looking at Shrili.
"Would you like to come down and have a bubble together?" Shreli said to the white-haired man, using a tone that was seductive enough to make the man feel that she was just a woman with no sense of dignity.
"I thought you didn't have the guts to come." The white-haired man said.
"I can handle all men, even gods." Shrili smiled.
"If you can really help, I will accept you as a knight." The white-haired man said.
"You men are always so prude... By the way, you are dressed much better today than in Asgard." Shreli said.
Her hands were shaking under the water, and the muscles in her thighs were tense.
"I can see how uneasy and timid you are." The white-haired man said coldly.
"I can't control myself when I see a handsome guy." Shreli said.
The man walked down into the pool, grabbed Shreli by the neck, and lifted her out of the water.
Shrili stood obediently without any resistance, her arms hanging by her sides, and she let the white-haired man's thumb pinch her throat.
She tried her best to calm her breathing, but her heartbeat was still very fast.
The white-haired man ripped off her bathrobe and threw it into the water.
Shreli's chest and belly were rising and falling due to her nervous and rapid breathing. Water droplets were sliding down her smooth skin, and her body was still steaming.
"It's not a conjuration." The white-haired man said.
He let go of Shreli, took out a white handkerchief, and wiped his hands.
Shreli fell back into the water, clutching her neck and chest and saying nothing.
"I still can't believe you, how did you find me?" the white-haired man asked.
"It's not difficult... He mentioned that disgusting bug to us. We also know what he knows. I've been observing there..." Shrili said.
"Why did you choose to betray?" the white-haired man asked again.
"I don't fight unprepared battles...and I can't get him. In that case, why not find a way out?" Shrili looked at the white-haired man.
In the field of vision, the figure of the white-haired man is vague, sometimes he looks like a man in a suit, sometimes he looks like a white knight...
"No one can accept the loyalty of a traitor." The white-haired man said.
"This is not a betrayal, this is a choice." Shreli said.
"Your betrayal is meaningless, and you will return to nothingness together with this world." The white knight said.
"You need my help, otherwise why would you come to see me!" Shrili argued.
"..." The white knight looked at Shrili and said nothing.
This played into Shreli's wish, and she hurriedly added: "You did what you could do, I can feel it. The sky is no longer so red. But the world has not been stranded in reality. Something must have gone wrong. Question, this is something you don’t know, right?”
"What did he do to the bug?" the white knight asked.
"I don't know, but I think it has something to do with the six holy diamonds. He once said that this world is a dream, and your world is real... When our time overlaps with yours, we It will be beached on your beach like a whale," said Slaili.
"The Asgard one is in my hand now. How many are left? Where is it? Does he know?" the white knight asked.
"I can tell you, but you have to accept me, at least, give me a transcendent status in the real world." Shrili said.
"What you want is very strange, and you don't understand why I did it." The white knight said.
"What else can you do? It's just a sci-fi version of colonial war. You invade, enslave, and then rule. The world is destined to lose. I'm willing to join you. If you want the remaining sacred diamonds, just trade them with me. ." Slaili said.
"Don't compare us with you. In our world, there is no power or position, only unity. We are only cleaning up the sins of the old world, not for conquest and enslavement." The white knight said scornfully.
"...I hope what you said is true." Shrili said.
"If humans abandon us, we will abandon the entire world." The white knight said.
"Okay, it seems you don't really need help, so what have you decided to do now? Kill me here?" Shrili asked.
The White Knight was silent for a while, his eyes never blinked, he seemed to be thinking.
After more than ten seconds, he said: "I can't promise to give you what you want, after all, those things don't exist in my world. But there is still room for negotiation."
Shreli laughed, she said: "Then what can you promise?"
The White Knight said seriously: "If you can pass the test, He will give blood and make you a new descendant of God."
"Who is He?" Shreli asked.
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask." The White Knight said.
Shreli thought that the White Knight might only give in this time, and she seized the opportunity.
"There are six holy diamonds in total, and he didn't say what would happen when they are put together." Shreli said.
"In your hands, they will not be of any use, but as long as they are destroyed, your world will no longer exist." The White Knight said bluntly.
"So, you want to destroy them?" Shreli asked.
"They are just fragments, and they will be complete only after they are put together. Put them together and then destroy them. If only some fragments are destroyed, the fragments will appear in other cycles." The White Knight said again.
"Okay... there are six in total. You have one, and the others are in his hands." Shreli said.
The White Knight smiled and said, "That will be much easier to find."
He turned around and wanted to leave, but Shreli called him from behind.
"You won't forget what you promised me, right?" Shreli said.
"As long as you can pass the test. But not now, wait until this world turns to dust, and I will come to pick you up in person." The White Knight said.
He was about to leave, but he remembered something, looked back at Shreli, and asked faintly:
"His name is Chen Ke?"
