【Deception】, 【Existence】, Shadow

(D-cup.)

But Cheng Shi knew that tolerance was always limited. His heart twitched, and without hesitation, he put his hand behind his back and gripped a mask.

If the die could summon 【Fate】, then logically the mask should be able to summon 【Deception】.

So before 【Decay】 could speak, Cheng Shi gripped the mask tightly and recited silently in his heart:

"Fate is like the stars, looking but unreachable..."

However, the mask remained motionless and did not respond.

Cheng Shi's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly tried to change his words: "The path coming and going, all is fated!"

"Lies like yesterday..."

"Cannot distinguish truth from falsehood..."

He was so anxious in his heart that he was smoking, but the mask still had no reaction.

Cheng Shi's heart sank directly; 【Deception】 ignored him, 【Fate】 was fighting, this was bad, he was going to be far away.

Cold sweat broke out on his forehead and back; he took another step back and quietly gripped the 【Death】 fun ring in his hand.

He was using this to cheer himself up, hoping that the aura of 【Death】 would make this 【He】 in front of him have some scruples.

But obviously, if it was just a creation, it didn't count for anything in their eyes.

The aged giant slowly opened his eyes, his turbid eyes filled with sorrow and tragedy. He seemed to have some unfulfilled wish that had not yet been achieved, but his body seemed to have reached its end.

He looked at the tiny Cheng Shi and squeezed a hoarse voice from his almost dried-up throat.

"【Deception】... follower... you did... very well..."

?

Just this one sentence, Cheng Shi's skull almost exploded!

What did He say?

Praising me for doing well?

Think about it, if you just tore down someone's house, and then this person came to you and praised you for doing well, what do you think he wants to do?

Could it be a feint and then secretly give yourself a stick, sentencing yourself to death in a yin-yang tone?

Cheng Shi panicked, but he stabilized himself.

Because he instantly understood one point, that is, if He didn't want him to live, then he wouldn't be able to hear that sentence just now.

So he stabilized his mind, suppressed his fear, and took a slight step forward, first pretending to be incomparably awed and praising:

"Praise you, great god of 【Decay】!

May all living beings in the world turn into decay with their bodies..."

Except me.

"May all things in the universe walk and decay!"

Also except me.

Then he lowered his head and admitted his mistake with extreme self-reproach:

"Due to the rules of the trial, I, Cheng Shi, a traveler on the path of 【Nothingness】, the second collection of 【Deception】, the pet of 【Fate】, a part-time employee of 【Death】, and a candidate messenger of 【Chaos】, have made some small blasphemous acts against you...

But please allow me to explain, I have absolutely never had any blasphemy against you in the true sense, and those so-called 'offerings' were not piety to 【Prosperity】.

I just purely wanted to pass the trial, and in the process of passing, perhaps the means were slightly, slightly more intense, causing you trouble; I deeply repent and am willing to bear some... uh, not very fatal... responsibility for this."

The giant, who was already slow in action, became even more sluggish after hearing this long string of nonsense.

He turned his head stiffly, and when he opened his eyes to look at Cheng Shi again, the black blood in his eyes dripped faster.

"You don't need... fear...

I summoned you here... just to see if this 【Deception】 follower who made Me realize... the uselessness of the past... is also a poor person like Me...

Pity... you are too much like Him... and have no fate with My will...

【Deception】 follower... you did very well... but remember to stay away from 【Prosperity】..."

"?"

Cheng Shi was stunned; his brain crashed directly because of the huge amount of information in 【Decay】's words.

He seems to really be praising me!

Huh?

What exactly made you satisfied, brother?

Is this world crazy?

I offered 【Prosperity】, and He gave me questioning; I sacrificed 【Decay】, but it brought me His praise?

No, this wouldn't be a script written by 【Deception】, right?

Why does the word "fun" seem to be flashing behind everything!

Speaking of the god of fun, 【Deception】's current situation might not be very good.

When an accident occurred in 【Faith Game】 and 【Prosperity】 broke the order and descended into the trial, those eyes filled with spirals and star points felt the anomaly for the first time and immediately disappeared into the void to rush to the front line of eating melons.

But when He opened His eyes with a giggle, He found that He had come under a starry sky where stars were flashing rapidly, looking at the time distorted by excessive acceleration around Him, He...

Laughed even more happily.

"【Time】, rare."

The distorted time under the starry sky became more deformed, and countless rays of light collapsed into two horrifying black hole pupils, looking at Him both quickly and slowly.

"Long time no see."

"Yeah, long time no see, you are still as annoying as before." The eyes of star points and spirals blinked and blinked, starting to look for loopholes in time.

"You too."

The black hole eyes seemed to be always concise; He stood in the starry sky, and every time He blinked, the surrounding time flowed rapidly for a moment, making the starry sky appear with the brilliance of stars rising and falling, living and dying.

When He didn't blink, the distorted traces of time completely stopped, solidifying into an eternal eternity.

This fast and slow change in time made 【Deception】 unable to find a chance to slip away, so He gave up trying and sighed long.

"I can't even deceive myself, saying that this is just a memory, and all this only happened a million years ago.

So... 【Memory】 is also here; you brothers are really of one mind."

As soon as the words fell, a new star was born in the silent starry sky. It gradually expanded with the change of time, and then disappeared. In the constantly iterating river of time, it lived and died several times, and finally, all the traces of its existence were connected, drawing a pair of history eyes inscribed with vicissitudes.

Those eyes flashed with many pasts on that star, and the moment they appeared, it was as if they had experienced countless years of wind and frost, making the entire starry sky diffuse with a mysterious and ancient aura.

The eyes of spirals and star points looked at Him and sneered:

"2 against 1, why, still waiting for me to make the first move?"

The eyes filled with historical wind and frost looked at 【Deception】 without joy or sorrow, and spoke with a tone full of vicissitudes:

"There is one more."

As soon as these words landed, a figure appeared faintly below those swirling, giggling eyes.

It was really just a figure, a shadow of a... person floating above the starry sky, without a body.

The shadow twisted like paper-cutting with the storm of time. After finally making itself flat, it stretched out a hand and greeted the three pairs of eyes in front of it:

"Tsk, three missing one, today... poker or mahjong?"

【Time】 is eternal, 【Memory】 is without joy or sorrow, 【Deception】 points and points.

He glanced at the shadow, his eyes slightly dissatisfied.

"It's fine to sneak in, why didn't you call me in advance when there's a good show to watch?"

The shadow paused, scratched his head and laughed dryly: "Didn't have time."

"Then how did you have time to notify 【Fate】?"

"Uh... just happened to run into Him, didn't hide it."

"Tsk, do you think I don't know that He helped you cover up the traces?

Eating inside and out!"

"..." The shadow was helpless, he sighed, "The only 【Nothingness】, where does the outside come from, Patron."

"Yo, that sounds nice. Since that's the case, why not let my good sister come back to stand in for me, and I'll go help Him find trouble with 【Prosperity】?"

The shadow nodded fiercely:

"Okay, as long as these two are willing, I will definitely support with both hands and feet.

But the problem is, do they agree?"

Saying this, the shadow looked at 【Time】 and 【Memory】.

【Time】 is eternal, 【Memory】 is without joy or sorrow, 【Deception】 clicks and clicks in wonder.

He mocked:

"If 【Existence】's choice is 【Silence】, then please inform me before you completely follow Him, so that I can also join in the fun."

The shadow laughed out loud when he heard this.

But no matter how these two laughed, the time and space and memory here were always unbreakable.

Seeing that they couldn't find a chance, the eyes and the shadow couldn't laugh anymore.

It and He looked at each other and sighed.

"Patron, didn't cheat, what to do?"

"What does it have to do with me? You didn't ask me. I just regret that I didn't get a front-row seat for such a great show, and you are miserable. Before being repatriated, what 'last words' do you have, say them quickly."

The shadow touched his nose and smiled: "Nothing to say, just purely came back to take a look."

Seeing that the two in front were still talking nonsense, 【Memory】, who had been silent, finally spoke again.

"No one can break the 【Convention】 and kill 【Prosperity】, 【Truth】 can't, and 【Deception】, you can't either.

No matter what you are coveting, it is in vain.

【Convention】 is above everything, as you and I both know.

I can not investigate whether this is an accident, but I will look after my collection hall, so that no one will sneak in again without asking."

【Deception】 sneered and looked at 【Memory】 with a yin-yang tone:

"Since 【Existence】 thinks I can't kill 【Prosperity】, why are you brothers surrounding me here?

Observing me and my followers sinking into the 【Sea of Desire】, sharing the authority of 【Birth】?"

"..."

"..."

"..."

The shadow froze. It coughed twice and gave a friendly reminder: "Humans and gods cannot share the authority of 【Birth】."

Those eyes sneered and looked at it: "Are you human?"

"..."

That's what was said.

I'm really not...

The shadow couldn't refute, so it chose to close the mic.

With the silence of the shadow, the flow of time in the starry sky became normal. The black hole eyes outlined by light glanced at the shadow lightly, and then the shadow began to fade away.

It felt that it was being pulled back to the original space by the power of 【Time】, so it laughed loudly before disappearing:

"I think 【Time】 is also a bitch!"

As soon as the words fell, the shadow disappeared.

All loopholes in the current time and space were filled.

【Time】 said nothing. After glancing at 【Deception】, He left silently.

【Memory】 saw 【Time】 leave, sighed, closed his eyes and said:

"Approaching 【Him】... isn't it good?"

Those eyes filled with star points and spirals blinked and played dumb: "What are you talking about, I don't understand."

"You understand."

"Okay, okay, I understand. Since I understand, why don't we celebrate and have a fight?"

"..."

The eyes of history dissipated with a bang, not giving Him any chance to make a move.

"Tsk, boring."

As soon as the words fell, He also dissipated in the starry sky.
