C231 I'm Sorry That It's Not Interesting at All
It was as if the sky well above her was covered by a huge curtain of darkness. Suddenly, she could not see what was in front of her.
- - No.
It wasn't "as if" or "as if ', but...
The silver-haired girl carved the final stroke. When she turned her head, she discovered - the well that guided the warm sunlight into the hall was indeed obscured by something black.
The entire hall instantly turned pitch black. Only the faint light emitted by the candle lit up the place slightly.
- What happened?
Just as she was wondering about this, at this point in time where no one should have appeared at all, in this place where only Titled Devil Instructor warriors could enter, footsteps could be heard.
At the same time, a young girl spoke.
"Oh my, I finally found you to be alone. It wasn't easy for me to stay by that damn Shield Knight's side all day long."
It was clearly the voice of a very young child. It even made Riko feel a bit like herself, but she could hear a cold and... ill-intentioned feeling from it.
The footsteps got closer and closer. The silver-haired girl tightened her grip on the Book of Thousand Laws in her hand. She stood in the corner of the wall and stared at the deep darkness with a vigilant expression.
With a lighting skill, the face of the mysterious person slowly emerged from the shadows.
- - However, the moment Riko saw the face, she could not help but be stunned.
She almost thought that she had seen her.
The incomer had the same facial features as Riko herself. His height and voice were exactly the same as hers. If it wasn't for the fact that the girl in front of her had the exact opposite of Riko's silver hair, pitch-black hair, and bright red eyes, she might have really thought that she was looking in the mirror.
The person in front of her and Riko herself, other than their faces being similar, almost every detail of their bodies seemed to have thrown the silver-haired girl's image into an image processing tool and added an inverse color.
They wore a black robe that came out of nowhere. The densely packed magic patterns on it were exactly the same as Riko's, be it in terms of location or shape. The book in their hands emitted a dark red halo, and a sickly Palewhite appeared on their bloodless faces. There was a wicked smile on his face.
"You are..."
Riko felt like she was being touched by a smoke detector, but she did not make any sharp beeps. Instead, her whole body tensed up uncontrollably, and a huge amount of magic kept gathering around her. It was as if she was solidifying into a solid form in the air.
"Why are you so nervous? I am you."
The fake Riko with black hair and red eyes still had a smile that was not a smile. This was the first time Riko discovered that her face could still be so... scary when she did not have an expression of fear and fear.
She replied with a string of ellipses.
... ""
"Hey, you're not saying anything. Forget it. I won't say anything, I'll say it."
Silence made the black-haired Riko continue.
"Sometimes I feel that you are really f * cking weak."
"I..."
The words that were about to come out of his mouth were interrupted.
"Do you remember when you were in the underground city? There was a person who was about to be burned to death, why didn't you save him? The Steam Divine Cult persecuted countless people. Why didn't you kill that lazy, pig-like stupid Pope?"
" Also, do you remember that white-bearded old man who summoned you to another world? He summoned you there to solve your problem, not to let you play the game of forgiveness with others. Not to mention, those Japanese directly or indirectly killed countless creatures. They deserved to die, why didn't you kill them? I saw you running around in this pile of Plane, I was worried for you... "
" I won't talk about those invaders anymore. According to my rules of conduct, they all have to die. Of course, the reason why I went through so much trouble to travel through a dozen or so Plane to find you is naturally not to talk about these messy and messy matters."
"That is..."
The black-haired girl's cute face revealed a cold sneer, "You, do you want to break all of this?"
"What... do you mean?"
"Destroy this world. Turn every piece of land under the same sky into hell, make the entire world scream and struggle in flames... let them experience the despair that you and I have experienced before... how about it? "
Black Riko grinned. Her appearance made the silver-haired girl feel cold all over.
"If you and I work together, it will be very simple."
... "I don't want that."
The white-haired Riko lowered her eyes.
"Let's just forget about the past. I have a lot of friends now, as well as reliable people who take care of me. I am very satisfied. If only... I could always be like this in the future. "
" Tch. Can you really say without any guilt... that you really don't have any thoughts in your soul? The outside world has done something wrong to you. If you have power, you must make it pay for it... This is a matter of course."
..." No way. "
Riko lowered her head and rejected it very straightforwardly.
"Tch." The other party repeated the same word again and gently turned around. With his back facing Riko, he turned around and his image gradually faded away in the darkness.
"We will meet again... My bright side."
Then, she looked like Riko herself and also called herself her existence. She disappeared without a trace. Riko could use her magic to detect that the Titled Mage Palace had become empty again. Other than her, there was no one else in the palace.
The well above her head had regained its light, which made the girl's eyes, which had basically adapted to the darkness, feel a trace of pain. She quickly lowered her head and rubbed her eyes.
Finally looking at the words she carved on the wall, Riko Hasegawa finally pushed open the door and left the great building called Titled Mage Palace.
She indirectly asked the guard if there was anyone who went in just now. In the end, she made the guard swear on his reputation that he did not see anyone.
Riko then turned to Meiko and asked if she saw or felt anything unusual.
The latter only smiled and touched the silver-haired girl's head.
"No, who did you see?"
Riko hesitated for a few seconds.
No matter what, he should tell her about this kind of thing...
But how should she say it?
I don't know... It's too strange to think about it from all angles.
