Chapter 1829
Xia De did not hide his thoughts, and he asked his question, and the god finally looked at him:
"Why tell you? You didn't ask, and the transaction you made is just that after many years, after Sarah Miles closes her eyes, he will smile and welcome her, and hold Sarah Miles' hand and walk toward death together. That's very romantic in mortal stories, isn't it?"
Looking at the god, Xia De only lasted less than three seconds before feeling extreme discomfort, but he still endured this feeling.
The god did not do anything wrong. He gave the knight a chance to realize a miracle, not only allowing him to become a hero who saved everything but even giving him a chance to see his lover again when this duty ended.
Thinking about it this way, Mrs. Miles and that Witch Emperor could never find the knight's whereabouts, and even the relic couldn't summon his soul, which was explained. The impact caused by the summoning demon fire crack opened by the witches' battle that year was probably even more serious than Xia De thought just now.
That God of Wealth and Trade seemed to have just appeared at the most suitable time and place and reached a transaction with a dying soul. He could even be evaluated as pitying the world... It's just that it's meaningless to say these things now. The past cannot be changed, and the present is the most important.
"God, since you have appeared now, where is that gentleman's soul?"
"The transaction has not ended. His responsibility can only end after Sarah Miles dies. As for now, he is still in the fire."
The god raised his left hand, the sleeve of his robe slipped, leaving a crack as tall as a person in the air. The crack opened rapidly, letting endless white flames, the smell of sulfur, countless screams, and a terrifying temperature that seemed to melt everything come from behind the crack.
Even though he had hunted many demons, Xia De subconsciously took a step back. The demon power contained in the space behind the crack was truly amazing.
Day—
"Use your remaining 365 days of life to exchange for his soul to go into the demon's flames and accompany Richard Jackman for 365 days."
"That is a very fair transaction."
"That seems to be the best way for Mrs. Miles. But I know, God, you have a better way that we can't think of, it's just that I can't afford the remuneration."
"If this transaction needs chips, please take my life and let my soul go to accompany him, accompany him through the last days!"
"So, you have been waiting for me to pay the chips for you from the beginning. Just like when I went deep into the camp last time, you tried to make me realize through 【Fate Pedestal】 that there are actually more transactions in this camp that are valuable to me."
"Madam!"
The white flames surging seemed to be burning on a scorched plain. The young man who had appeared in the old woman's memory just now was lying under the cracks in the ground at this time, trying to resist the flames with his transparent body. He didn't succeed completely, otherwise, there wouldn't be flames on the scorched plain. He reached a balance with the flames, so the flames wouldn't expand, and he couldn't leave.
Although he said so, the god didn't agree immediately, but looked at Xia De:
Ignoring Miss Higgins' obstruction, the tearful old man still said this sentence, but the god shook his head:
"God, I am very curious, what exactly do you want me to pay? I think I don't have anything you like."
Miss Higgins, who originally wanted to stop her, didn't know why she closed her mouth. She shook her head with a sigh and decided not to intervene in this matter anymore.
"You pay the chips, and I can abolish the transaction between Richard Jackman and you, allowing his soul to gain freedom now."
Mrs. Miles looked at Xia De with hopeful eyes, while Miss Higgins kept shaking her head at Xia De, but didn't dare to make too big a movement.
The pitch-black balance tilted again, symbolizing the beginning of another transaction:
"Chips..."
The experience of coming to the White Fog Camp for the third time and coming to the top of the tower step by step was just now:
"Then, let me go too! Let me go there, accompany him to persist for the last 365 days, let me be with him there!"
He pointed to himself:
"No, we should have spent this life together. I waited for him all my life, and now I know he didn't break his promise, he really will come to see me, so now it's my turn to find him, to accompany him through the life that should have belonged to him!"
This is certainly not a miracle realized by the power of a mortal soul, but God allowing her to do so.
Xia De, who had already figured it out, spoke:
Xia De ignored his two companions:
He let the chains slide from his sleeves to the ground, looking at the sins that existed on them, which were also the sins he had verified step by step.
"This exchange is not established. Your soul is too weak, and your souls are not equal at all."
"Balance. The most important thing is balance. It's not that everyone has the ability to balance good and evil, but that the entire civilization can develop spirally in the balance of good and evil. And for you personally..."
You are really too old.
"Young man, I don't need you to do that. If I let others make sacrifices just to see him, what face do I have to face him?"
"I am very happy, you are indeed a kind person."
I saw your interesting soul, I saw the seeds of great sin and virtue, and at the same time, they took root and sprouted in your soul. This great sin is not the base character of ordinary people. The dark light of the three sins flickering in your soul originates from ancient and real evil deeds. At the same time, you have compassion, persistence in fair morality, and a golden spirit that is higher than most people. My question is, as you are, using the power of sin, will you really not feel disgusted?"
The god still didn't open his mouth, but the voice that sounded was deafening:
"God, since we are still in this camp, are you willing to make another transaction so that Mr. Richard Jackman can recover his freedom in advance and spend the last time with Mrs. Miles?"
"Use my soul to exchange for his soul! Let me replace him, let him come back to life, let him see this world again!"
"If I die, he can be liberated."
The face of the mermaid sinking to the bottom of the water flashed in Xia De's mind. He looked at the pattern of the golden balance on the god's clothes again, and Yin Yi Yi Lu Na's face seemed to appear in front of him:
"Outsider, do you think I should agree to this transaction?"
"Madam!"
"What's the point of that? One person blocking this crack and two people blocking the crack won't make any difference."
The Old God said softly, looking at Xia De with deep meaning. As for the pitch-black balance on the flames, it had returned to a balanced position at some point.
"Madam, what are you going to do!?"
Clearly, her body was weak and her spirit was low, but she refused Miss Higgins and then stood up with effort, and looked directly at the god to make a request.
"I am willing, I am willing to use my..."
Xia De didn't expect that using a relic of the level of 【Fate Pedestal】 to lure him was just to ask such a strange question.
"Yes."
Xia De then asked this key question:
"Don't worry, I won't ask you for anything. You just need to answer one question, a very simple question:"
The god asked the old man:
The old man said in a hoarse voice.
The Old God - 【Golden Master】 answered:
Miss Higgins shook her head at Xia De faster, Mrs. Miles listened to our conversation in shock, and before Xia De answered, she said first:
"People themselves have positive and negative sides. There are no perfect saints, and there are no perfect villains... At least that's what I think, otherwise, whether the other party can be called a wise life is hard to say. Someone once said that sin is also power... I don't want to quote his words."
"That sentence is very correct. I hope you can remember it. That's enough, the answer is not bad."
Xia De still felt puzzled about all this. He could guess the power of the god in front of him, which was likely related to the Ancient God of Balance - 【The Hanging Judgment】. But even if this guess was correct, the other party asking his opinion on the power of sin seemed unnecessary. If it were Yin Yi Yi Lu Na standing here, that would make sense.
The old woman took out the relic dagger left by the girl after his death from the witch's bag and wanted to insert it into her chest, but was stopped by the young witch behind Xia De.
The middle-aged man wearing a golden robe blinked at Xia De:
"What chips does Sarah Miles have to trade? I don't need mortal wealth, and I'm not interested in your soul and your faith. Why not wait patiently? After 365 days, she will move toward death, and then he will smile and wait for your arrival."
"Sin is also me, a part of Xia De Hamilton. There is no mistake in this, this is a part of my existence. I am willing to help those who need help, but I will also greedily try to hold everyone's hand."
"I know this greed is wrong, but I just want to do it. Is letting go right? No, it doesn't matter. I once told a friend of mine that absolute balance does not exist. The power of sin is also power... Why did it come back to this sentence again?"
The silver-haired old man said. After the dagger was snatched away by the witch, she wanted to rush to the crack again, but was stopped by Miss Higgins again.
He had no intersection with that god, had no influence in the current time, and it was impossible to interfere with anything. And no matter how you think about it, the Tree Father would not allow the god of the past to influence the Eighth Era through Xia De.
She was still afraid of the god who appeared, but she still remembered her responsibility:
A smile appeared on the god's face. He pointed to the white balance placed by the fire, and the balance flew above the bonfire. The balance was balanced. What this represented, the three of them knew.
