Chapter 71 One More Day

2925 Words
"13 Main Street, Mingke StreetOn the night at Shius Crematorium, Karen sat on a chair and gestured for her grandfather to tie her up to create the illusion that he was also a victim in order to avoid trouble from the police.Diss, on the other hand, picked up a knife and stabbed Karen directly in the chest.Although the stab did not hit any vital organs, Karen still had to stay in the hospital for many days.At first, Karen thought her grandfather did it to make it more believable and to avoid any further attention and trouble." When the man with the hooked nose, obviously from a special government department, came to his hospital room to inquire about his condition, Karen thought that his grandfather might be trying to avoid their gaze, as they were the regulators after all.But after that night of s*******r,Karen suddenly realized a problem, that is, what police, what special government department, his grandfather didn't care at all.He could have just not put on an act,So,Why did he stab himself that night?But Karen never asked this question, because he didn't think it was necessary to ask.It's like an elder playing with a child, accidentally causing the child to fall and scrape their skin, can you really hold a grudge?Plus,Karen guessed that maybe the arrangement that Dias gave him at the time was to always "behave" and act like a normal person in the Inmoleis family, so he naturally had to keep his hands and feet clean. But,Until this moment,The purpose of stabbing that knife, is only now truly revealed!Sometimes,It's really hard to understand, even hard to imagine,An old man, has put in so much thought and preparation for you,Just because of that one word..."Grandpa"....Oak cemetery,A black barrier. Dis's hand retracted from the black hole in his chest, holding a ball of black mist."In the name of my oath, if you spare me at this moment, I will give you and your family ten times, a hundred times of gifts."Dis didn't respond at all. His figure slowly descended and came to Hoffen and the golden-haired one."You are facing the greatest crisis. Letting me go is the most correct choice for you now. I, Lanedal, always keep my promises."Mr. Hoffen curiously looked at the gray mass, his face excited and his old skin seemed to be pulled up a lot, like a chef seeing the most precious and rare ingredient in the world for the first time."I can form a friendship with the Inmeres family. If you can survive this difficult situation, I will give you a guide to becoming a god."Dis looked at Hoffen and he nodded vigorously.This gray mass was placed in front of Dis. The golden color under his eyes emitted a true divine majesty, gradually making the edges of the gray mass seem to be lined with a layer of gold thread.Dis asked:"What is your name?" "Laniedar, my name, once resounded in the previous era!""No, that is not your name.""Not my name?""You are...Kevin."As soon as the words fell,Dis slammed the gray mass directly into the body of the golden-haired man in front of him.Mr. Hofin immediately began to perform a spell, and the golden-haired man's body was shimmering with colorful light, which dissipated in an instant after reaching its peak.The golden-haired man, who had almost fainted from fear, slowly opened his eyes and glanced around, as if he had discovered that the scene around him was still so terrifying. Then he immediately closed his eyes and forcefully coughed a few times, trying to spit out more foam.Alfred widened his eyes and watched this scene.Although he witnessed it with his own eyes, Although he personally participated,But until this moment, he still feels a great sense of unreality.A demon god, sealed like this?And... it was sealed into the body of a dog.At this time,Many beams of light have already arrived here.The first to fall were the three elders of the Order Temple, while the other four beams of light remained on the periphery.The barrier was opened and Dis flew up again.The golden color in his eyes was still there, but he was constantly restraining himself. One foot had already stepped in, but the other foot was still outside. However, at this moment, he already possessed a true divinity.The attention of the seven beings present was actually focused on Dis, because his reaction would determine their next move. Di raised his face towards the pillar of light where the Reincarnation God Sect was located and questioned, "Does the Reincarnation God Sect want to challenge the legitimacy of the Order God Sect as the representative of order?" After Di's question, the being inside the pillar of light of the Reincarnation God Sect seemed to be stunned. At the same time, Siti stood in front of the pillar of light of the Dark Night God Sect and asked, "Does the Dark Night God Sect want to question the legitimacy of the Order God Sect as the representative of order?" Niven stood in front of the pillar of light of the Principle God Sect and asked, "Does the Principle God Sect want to question the legitimacy of the Order God Sect as the representative of order?" Gail stood in front of the pillar of light of the Abyss God Sect and asked, "Does the Abyss God Sect want to question the legitimacy of the Order God Sect as the representative of order?" "Does the Abyssal Cult want to question whether the Order Cult still has the qualification to represent order?"At this moment,The four beings within the four pillars of light were undoubtedly shocked.They received news that a senior elder of the Order Cult had chosen to exile himself and break ties with the Order Cult, but the current scene showed no signs of a rift.But the problem was, after inquiring with the powers of their respective cults, it was indeed confirmed that this news was true!So, has the Order Cult already completed negotiations within its own ranks?"The Samsara Cult respects the Order Cult's qualification to maintain order.""The Night Cult acknowledges the Order Cult's ability to uphold order.""The Principle Cult thanks the Order Cult for its dedication to order.""The Abyssal Cult agrees with the Order Cult continuing to govern the rules of order." When the so-called rift no longer exists, they also lose the opportunity to get involved.Because in this world, no church dares to face the Order of the Gods alone and choose to go to war.Even if they unite, it won't work because they can't unite in the first place. Making their own god the only god is the fundamental demand and goal of every church.Most importantly, the Order of the Gods has always maintained order. Although they have forced many privileges, forcing other major churches to step back, their route is completely different from that of the Bright God Church.This also means that other churches do not have the fundamental motivation to unite and target the Order of the Gods.Four beams of light flew away into the distance.They came,And then,They left again."Dis, come back to the Order of the Gods with us, accept the position of elder, and achieve your supreme status. At the same time, the glory of order will shine upon your family." Gail spoke to Dis. Dis did not respond, his figure fell again, his feet stepping on the muddy ground of the cemetery.In the cemetery, there was Alfred, Old Hoffen, and a dog.Because of the barrier that Dis had set up earlier, the events that had just happened inside the barrier could not be sensed from the outside.And the evil god could not be seen, he was now sealed inside a dog, adding another barrier, making him even more invisible."Dis, do you know the consequences of defying the Order Temple?" Siti's figure appeared in front of Dis, blocking him.Dis ignored the high-ranking elder of the temple, his golden eyes completely fading away, and his aura quickly declining until he was only at the level of a basic Order Temple judge.In other words,Siti could easily crush Dis with just one finger, but her face remained stiff.Dis walked past her, and she stood there motionless. Although her temper was notorious for being irritable before she became an elder in the temple, she did not show any restraint after becoming an elder. However, she is someone who prioritizes the bigger picture.The Order of the Gods needs Dis.Unless Dis clearly shows a clear break, she cannot bear to... no, she cannot bear to erase this newly appointed elder.This is a loss for the Order of the Gods, but also a loss for order.She is angry because Dis clearly saw her mindset, so he... acted recklessly.Especially since Dis, although an old man, is still a junior in her eyes. Her true age is actually quite old, and in their eyes, Lasma is more like a child.Not respecting the Order of the Gods is also not respecting the elderly!Siti's eyes were filled with anger as she turned and looked at Dis's back:"The temple will not continue to tolerate you. According to the rules of order, dust cannot be allowed to exist."Dis did not even turn his head. "Just raised his hand and waved:"Only two days left."Realizing that midnight had already passed,Dis corrected himself:"Only one day left."Gale spoke:"This is the deadline you gave us, and it's also our last chance. We can continue to wait until Sunday."Dis replied:"It's in the afternoon."Because in the morning, he needed to lead the congregation in worship at the church. Three beams of light shot up into the sky and disappeared."Citi, did you see that? He's not breaking through, he's already familiar with this realm. He just deliberately stepped into it. He is the most outstanding genius in the God's Sect in the past thousand years.""You don't have to mention this every time. We have eyes to see for ourselves. We also don't believe that when he said those disrespectful words in front of you, you didn't choose to punish him because of your far-sightedness.Because the more of a genius he is, the bigger the trouble for the Temple when he chooses to be troublesome.""I am starting to look forward to the negotiations that day. Perhaps his choice will be different from what was predicted. If he insists on choosing to betray the sect, he should have coordinated with the other four first.Perhaps tonight, he just wants to drive away those lurking in the dark corners and prevent them from taking advantage of the situation.He might,really want to have a negotiation."...Karen had a dream. He was very cold at first, so cold that it was bone-chilling, and it seemed like his soul had frozen over. But soon, two warm currents came over and not only dispelled his chill, but also brought warmth and comfort.He fell asleep, or at least it seemed like he did.He had a dream, and from the very beginning, he knew it was a dream.In this dream, he was lying on a grassy field, with the sun shining and blue skies and white clouds in front of him. Everything was so beautiful.And on either side of his body, there were a man and a woman lying down.The man was very handsome.Karen thought he looked a bit like Dis, and also a bit like himself.Then, Karen smiled;Because he had figured out who the other person was, it was a bit funny to say "a bit like himself".The man seemed to notice Karen's smile, and turned his head to look at him, and he also smiled. His eyes were very clear, giving off a kind and simple feeling.The men from the Inmoleis family are all handsome.Karen turned her head again and looked at the woman lying on the other side. The woman was already propping her head up and looking at him.She was very beautiful, in a straightforward way, especially her blonde hair, which was similar to his.This is a dream,It must be a dream.Karen sighed,Saying:"I really want to try, but I can't bring myself to call you 'dad' and 'mom'.I'm also sorry, I've taken over your son's body, his name, his identity, and, well, his family." When facing Mason, Mary, and Winnie, Karen doesn't have any psychological burden, normal communication and contact is enough. But when facing these two, Karen can't suppress the guilt in her heart. Because this body of hers is their son. "You don't have to call me father," the man said, "I don't see you as my son either." The woman spoke up, "I tried, but I failed. You are not my son." Karen rested her hands behind her head, trying to adjust to a more comfortable position to lie down, and said, "Hmm." Actually, the postures of the three people are all very casual and comfortable.The man spoke, "In my eyes, you, Mason, and Winnie are very similar, like my other brother."The woman spoke, "Although I can't see you as my son, I am actually very relieved to see my 'son' continue to live on."Karen began to analyze the deeper meaning behind their words and speculate about their inner thoughts.Although this dream may be a projection of his inner world, it is his professional habit and the only thing he can do at this moment.Because he cannot get up, hold the hand of "father", and then hold the hand of "mother", and shout like a real son:"Dad, Mom, can we fly kites together like we did when we were young?"The man's last name is Inmores, so he considers himself a family member.Although the woman will take her husband's last name, her feelings for the Inmores family are definitely not as strong as her husband's. Her mentality is like that of a parent who donates their child's organs, and she may also have a comforting feeling that their child is still "shining" in this world.However, for the woman, she has donated her son's entire body, and then the recipient has inherited her son's organs and appears in front of her in a complete form. Three people, all stopped talking and just lay here.Blowing in the wind,Basking in the sun,Listening to the sound of the distant stream flowing.Until,The wind gradually stopped, the sun gradually dimmed, and the water also gradually slowed down.Karen spoke up:"What can I do for you two?"This was a sincere question, without any pretense or courtesy, Karen owed them both emotionally and morally.The man replied, "Just live well." The woman added, "Try to live a little happier." As the words fell, the dream began to shatter. Karen opened his eyes and found himself sleeping in a chair in Dis's study. The candle on the desk had long been extinguished. He instinctively reached for his chest, where there was a scar. The wound had long since healed and there was no black hole when he touched it. Then, Karen stood up and felt soreness in his joints and a dry throat. He first picked up the hot water bottle on the desk and found it empty. Then he opened Dis's teacup, which only had tea leaves inside. Karen had to push open the study door and walk out. Puer was squatting on the windowsill, but it didn't move when Karen came out. Its gaze was fixed on the gate of the courtyard. Dis had returned, holding the stupid golden retriever. "Huh... Disa is back safely." Pu'er let out a long sigh of relief, the stone that had been hanging in his heart... just as it was about to fall, it suddenly jumped back up to his throat. He immediately stood up, lowered his head, and stared intently at the golden retriever that Disa had brought back. Karen saw Pu'er's body tense up in an instant on the windowsill, even its fur seemed to stand on end. "What's wrong with that stupid dog!" "What's wrong with you?" Karen reached out to pat Pu'er's head out of habit. But Pu'er, who was still in an excited state, swatted her hand away with its paw. "Hiss..."Karen's hand was left with three bloody claw marks."Oh my god, oh my god!"Puer screamed:"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my dear Karen, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I was just distracted."Puer immediately leaned forward, sticking out his tongue to lick the wounds on Karen's hand, while deliberately swaying his tail and gently patting Karen's arm."It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt, it'll stop hurting after I lick it, my poor little Karen, kitty loves you."Karen wasn't angry about the small scratches on her hand caused by Puer, instead she was puzzled by his sudden attentiveness:"What's gotten into you today?""What do you mean, my dear little Karen?" "You're acting a bit strange today.""What's strange? Haven't I always been like this? Don't worry, you'll get used to it. I am a gentle cat with a hundred years of aristocratic upbringing. You'll see more of my tenderness in the future, trust me."Karen withdrew her hand and said, "I'll go downstairs and get a glass of water.""No need, I'll go wake up Lunt and have him bring you some water."Just then, Dias walked up the stairs and Karen saw her grandfather holding the golden retriever."Grandpa, you went for a walk with the dog so early in the morning?""Yes." Dias replied and walked up to Karen, handing her the leash. "Take over."Karen reached out and took the leash.The golden retriever immediately came over and gently rubbed its head against Karen's leg. Next to the Pu'er tea, the cat's face was solemn.Dis pointed to the Golden Retriever,saying:"Take this Golden Retriever to Vienna with you, even though it's not very useful."
