Gu Qing Shan, Lin, and Laura rode the Bramble Ship, using a secret route to head towards the Mystic Zones.
At the same time.
At another location.
In a world not too far away from the Seaside world.
The Abyssal Demon Dragon had taken human form, currently escorting someone on a lively main street.
âYouâre saying thatââ- all of those things you said needed to go through what you call âpurchasingâ in order to turn into your possession, correct?â
The person asked.
The Abyssal Demon Dragon nodded again and again: âYes, yes, money is a widely recognized embodiment of value that can be used to purchase various thingsâ
âSo thatâs the reason, no wonder when we ate without paying earlier, those people chased us for several blocksâ the person commented with interest.
The Abyssal Demon Dragon showed a flattering smile and said: âYour Excellency, if you had just given me an order, I would have easily killed those peopleâ
âNo, that is too uninteresting. Itâs a lot more fun to abide by rulesâ the person turned around and glared at the Demon Dragon like a warning.
The Abyssal Demon Dragon immediately answered: âOf course, everything is as you willâ
âThatâs much better. Now, tell me why is everyone looking at me so strangely?â
âYour Excellency, perhaps it is because you are wearing a skirtâ
âWhat is a âskirtâ?â
âItâs a kind of clothing item specialized for femaleâ
âSo thatâs what it was, even clothing needs to be differentiated between male and female use. The 900 million World Layers is truly a place of order, how very interestingâ
The person then stood in the middle of the road and took off all his clothes.
âThere, no more issuesâ the person triumphantly said.
The Abyssal Demon Dragonâs lips trembled a bit and said: âYour Excellency, while in the 900 million World Layers, it is more respectable to wear clothes in a public settingâ
âWhy?â
âBecause in the 900 million World Layers, living beings like to use their first impression of another through their appearance and clothingâ
âSo for living beings, appearance is most important?â
âThat is the caseâ
The person sighed emotionally: âSo that is how it is? No wonder after I stripped myself, even more eyes are focusing on me nowââ- it truly is troublesome to be humanâ
âThat is so, your Excellencyâ this time, the Demon Dragon replied full of sympathy.
The person then asked: âYoung one, if appearance is truly that important, then is there a place to cater specifically to appearance?â
Hearing that, the Abyssal Demon Dragon fell into thought.
ââ-this terrifying entity most likely doesnât need cosmetic surgery, if someone actually dared to put a scalpel against his face, they would probably not even know how to write the word âdieâ.
Then...
âYour Excellency, that building there is for managing oneâs appearanceâ
The person looked at where the Demon Dragon was pointing.
He saw several beautiful women smiling on a large signboard.
There was an empty space below these girls written in common language.
âWhat are those words saying?â
âWashing, cutting, drying hair, 10 Creditsâ
â10 Creditsââ- is that the currency?â
âYesâ
âDo we have 10 Credits?â
âDo not worry, your Excellency, even though I usually donât carry money outside, I still brought enough for a hairdoâ
âVery well, then let us goâ
âPlease wait, your Excellency, I must prepare an outfit for you first. Walking on the street without clothes is a very attention-seeking thing to doâ
âAh, I donât like drawing attention. Quickly, find me a set of male clothingâ
âYesâ
An hour later.
The Abyssal Demon Dragon escorted that person out of the stylish haircut establishment.
At this point, the personâs appearance had greatly changed.
He was wearing a set of casual clothing, his hair split 3-7 with the length just reached the top of his ear. He was even a black pair of glasses that covered his eyes, giving off an extremely handsome and generous presence.
âHm, very good, now the people on the street are no longer looking at meâ the person said with satisfaction.
All of a sudden, he and the Demon Dragon both turned to look at the sky.
Above the cloud, high in the sky, two Combatants were fighting against one another.
After watching for a bit, the person asked: âWhy are they fighting?â
The Demon Dragon replied: âBecause they are competing over a treasureâ
âWhat treasure?â
âThat would be the gun in that manâs handâ
âYou mean that black item?â
âIndeed, it is an excellent pistol. Unfortunately not yet fully repaired, otherwise, it would be quite a fine thingâ the Demon Dragon explained.
Hearing that, the person swiped his hand at the air.
The black pistol immediately appeared in his hand.
âSomething like this is considered a treasure?â
He looked at the black pistol with curiosity and caution.
The two people noticed the pistol disappearance, looked around, and quickly found where it was.
âDespicable thiefâ
âYou want to die!?â
The two of them angrily swooped down towards him.
Seeing their reactions, the person nodded: âSeems like it really is a treasureâ
The person flicked his hand and threw the gun back in the air.
The two men went back to competing over it.
ââbut before they did, they each unleashed an attack at the man below.
Perhaps it was to probe him, or just a casual habit.
Either wayââ-
Boom!
Another intense explosion.
Over half the plaza area was destroyed, taking countless lives with it.
That person and the Demon Dragon hovered above the ruined ground without being hurt at all.
âDid they just try to kill me?â the person asked.
âYes they did, your Excellencyâ the Demon Dragon respectfully answered.
âDidnât I already return their item to them?â
âBut they were still angryâ
âSo you can kill people just because youâre angry?â
âOf course not, but they are Lord-class Combatant, so they donât care about how other people look at themâ
âBecause they donât care about how other people think, they can ignore the rules?â
âIndeed, your Excellency, that is how they thinkâ
The person thought briefly and swiped his hand at the air again.
Two figures immediately crashed down with a resounding sound of impact.
The dust scattered.
The two Lords were being restrained by some sort of invisible force and pinned to the ground, unable to move a finger.
It was now that they realized they had run into a true powerhouse.
âWho are you... sir?â
âSpare me! Spare me!â
They loudly begged and cried.
The person said nothing and just looked at the two Lords.
Two transparent figures emerged from their bodies and flew into the personâs hand.
âInferior souls, completely worthlessâ
The person glanced at them and scoffed.
He casually threw the two souls away.
The Demon Dragon swiftly received the souls and smiled: âSuch weak and miserable creatures dared to try and attack a legendary sovereign of the Abyss. This level of ignorance and self-righteousness is truly laughableâ
The person nodded in agreement as he heard that: âSlaughtering others weaker than themselves while begging for their lives as soon as they met an opponent they cannot defeat. What a couple of uneducated savages. Even in the Abyss, such laughable, inferior behaviours are the lowest of the low, they would never be given any room to evolveâ
âWhy is that so, your Excellency?â the Abyssal Demon Dragon respectfully asked.
The other party was among the strongest entities within the Abyss, and his words just now seemed to be related to the true secret of the Abyss, so the Demon Dragon chose to take this chance and asked.
âI suppose itâs fine to tell you. Since youâre going to be following me from now on, it is best that you understand such a basic matterâ
âThat is true, your Excellency, I am extremely grateful for your generosity, please bestow upon me the knowledge of the Abyssâ
The person replied: âInferior souls such as these cannot draw the attention of the Abyss, and within the Abyss, only lifeforms that have drawn its willful gaze and attention would have a chance to evolveâ
The Demon Dragon muses briefly before deflating: âYour Excellency, I seemed to have never received the gaze of the Abyss beforeâ
The person abruptly started laughing: âAhahaha, then you must quickly try harderâ
âAfter allâââ
âThe Eternal Abyss will soon thoroughly fuse with the 900 million World Layers. Against the penetration of the parallel worldâs Apocalypse, this is the only way outâ
âA new Era is upon us!â
