Chapter 2613: Chapter 1751: Completely Unexpected (Besides Instant Noodles, What Else Is There to Eat)

When Duanmu Huai and Hei Chuan Chi Yin returned, the first thing they saw was...

"Wow, it feels like it’s been ages even though it’s just been a day."

Duanmu Huai reached out to touch his chin, looking speechless.

"Is it all ruined?"

Indeed, in front of them, the Saint Soaring Music Academy that was intact in the morning had turned into a heap of ruins. Not only that, signs of battle were evident everywhere, and a bizarre, multicolored tower had emerged from the ground, jutting toward the sky like a bathhouse chimney.

As for Tenpou Zou and Feng Mingyi, they were lying on the ground, covered in injuries...

"Why is it that every time I see you two, you’re getting beaten up?"

Duanmu Huai casually walked up and greeted them.

These two truly were unlucky. They had just managed to recover, and now it looks like they’re heading back to the hospital.

"Ugh..."

"Careful..."

But at this moment, the two were clearly too occupied to deal with Duanmu Huai’s antics, and Tenpou Zou bit her lip tightly, her face pale.

"Quick, quickly stop her ——— Stop her child...!"

"Hmm..."

Duanmu Huai turned his head and looked ahead not far from them. Underneath the blazing multicolored tower stood a blonde woman dressed in bizarre attire resembling a golden saintly outfit. Beside her was Yukine Chris, who also appeared pale and was holding something resembling a long spear...

"I still don’t get what’s happening? Can someone explain?"

Despite the tense atmosphere at the scene, Duanmu Huai acted as casually as if he were entering a party. Hearing his inappropriate question, Tenpou Zou and Feng Mingyi’s expressions turned strange —--- Do you really understand what’s going on?

"Anyway, stop her quickly!"

Tenpou Zou shouted loudly.

"She wants Chris to activate Solomon’s Staff!"

"Oh... and then?"

"Then the Babylonian Treasury will be opened!"

This time, it wasn’t Tenpou Zou who answered Duanmu Huai’s question but the blonde woman. She held the trembling, pale-faced Yukine Chris in one hand while looking triumphantly at Duanmu Huai and Hei Chuan Chi Yin.

"What... what’s inside? Gold and silver treasures?"

"No, it’s countless Noise!"

The blonde woman’s eyes gleamed with excitement.

"These are the weapons once created to destroy humanity! But ultimately, they were sealed in the treasury. But don’t worry, once the treasury is opened, the Noise won’t just occasionally appear. They will be fully unleashed and completely destroy everything! And you --------!"

As she spoke, the blonde woman pointed at Duanmu Huai.

"This time, you can never stop me!"

"Oh ho."

Listening to the blonde woman’s furious shout, Duanmu Huai pondered for a moment and then chuckled.

"Shirai Kiri? How is it? Does turning human feel interesting?"

Duanmu Huai had previously guessed that after being bombarded with his song and spiritual power, the concept of the Star God gained substance, but it wasn’t Duanmu Huai’s entity it gained; it was Shirai Kiri’s entity. However, what Shirai Kiri looks like totally depends on the viewers’ own imagination.

After all, Shirai Kiri’s image didn’t appear in the MV at that time.

Now, it seems...

Duanmu Huai glanced at the blonde woman in front of him and shook his head.

These viewers’ imaginations don’t seem to be that great?

"Don’t call me by that name!"

However, for the former Star Gods, her behavior at the moment was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

"Because it represents your stupidity and failure?"

Even though the blonde woman was furious, Duanmu Huai didn’t take her seriously.

"You couldn’t be killed before, but now..."

"It’s the same now! You can’t kill me!"

The blonde woman stared at Duanmu Huai, prideful.

"I’ve inscribed my soul into my genes! Even if you kill my body, my soul can resurrect in others! Because most humans in this world have my lineage! If you want to kill me, then you must kill everyone in this world! Can you do that?"

"Huh?"

Hearing the blonde woman’s words, Duanmu Huai didn’t react, but Hei Chuan Chi Yin was slightly startled. She had previously heard Duanmu Huai’s analysis and knew that the Star Gods already had substance, but she hadn’t thought the opponent would use this method —--- indeed, the Tribunal is the Guardian of humanity, but Duanmu Huai naturally must eliminate threats to humanity.

He had also said before that any threat to humanity must be eliminated at all costs; does this mean...

Thinking of this, Hei Chuan Chi Yin looked at Duanmu Huai with worried eyes, who also seemed quite shocked, blankly staring at the blonde woman.

Moments later, Duanmu Huai spoke.

"You... mean, many humans in this world have your lineage?"

"Precisely, that’s right!"

The blonde woman, triumphant, stood tall and proud, watching Duanmu Huai’s astonished expression, feeling incredibly excited and pleased.

I can finally subdue you!

However, at this moment, Duanmu Huai’s complexion was very strange and colorful.

It’s not because this Star God tied itself to humans, but...

Brothers, who understands this? After gaining a body, this Star God actually had children with humans, and so many too!

What kind of Star God breeder is this?!

To take ten thousand steps back, even if the flow of time is different between the two worlds, the Star God gained the body named "Shirai Kiri" a thousand or two thousand years ago, then having its bloodline spread across the world means this Star God has been traveling and having kids everywhere?

Isn’t this just...

Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai looked at the blonde woman with an even stranger gaze. The proud blonde woman found something amiss because she found that Duanmu Huai’s gaze wasn’t angry, wasn’t hateful, but... sympathetic?

"Sorry, this truly was beyond my expectations."

Duanmu Huai honestly apologized to the blonde woman.

"I just thought you’d be easier to handle after gaining a physical body, but I didn’t expect you’d turn into... um..."

"??? What on earth are you talking about???"

The blonde woman was baffled by Duanmu Huai, imagining he would hate her, detest her, or even kill her without a word upon meeting again.

But an apology? What the heck?

Not only the blonde woman but lying on the ground Tenpou Zou and Feng Mingyi, along with Hei Chuan Chi Yin beside them, weren’t quite sure what Duanmu Huai was getting at.

Luckily, Duanmu Huai soon explained.

"Since right now in this world, many humans are your descendants, it means you’ve had quite a few children, right... and all different races too. Hmm... how should I say it, thank you for your contribution to human prosperity?"

"..........."

Hearing this, the three girls instantly understood Duanmu Huai’s meaning, plunging them into silence.

What do you mean by having children of so many different races?

This sounds dirty!

If it were the previous Star God, it probably wouldn’t react to Duanmu Huai’s words, since Star Gods have no gender. However, the blonde woman is different; after gaining a body, it’s been hundreds or even thousands of years now, her thinking has transformed from a Star God to a human, so with a slight ponder she immediately understood Duanmu Huai’s implication.

"I’m going to kill you———!"

She’s furious, genuinely furious.

"Chris!"

The blonde woman no longer communicated with Duanmu Huai, initially wanting him to be wary, but his single comment shattered her defenses.

So the blonde woman decisively turned, quickly grabbing Yukine Chris beside her.

"Activate Solomon’s Staff! Open the Babylonian Treasury doors! I want to fully revive Noise and completely destroy this world!"

"No, I won’t..."

Choked by the blonde woman, Yukine Chris still clenched her teeth.

"Dad and mom died for humanity, I... I won’t let them die in vain, I also want to protect humans———!"

"Chris..."

Hearing Yukine Chris’s reply, Tenpou Zou and Feng Mingyi were moved to tears. Although this girl’s personality is somewhat awkward, they believe she’s definitely a good kid, and now, they’ve proved they weren’t wrong about Chris! She’s still a kind-hearted good child.

Yet at this moment, Duanmu Huai’s voice rang out again.

"Just open it."

"Eh?"

Duanmu Huai’s ability to wreck the scene’s atmosphere is top-notch; a single sentence utterly dissipated the originally intense determination filled ambiance. Not only the blonde woman was dumbfounded, but even Yukine Chris, who expressed a willingness to sacrifice herself to prevent her success, was bewildered.

"According to her words, all Noise is stored in that treasury, right? So it means, if we destroy the treasury along with Noise, won’t the threat to humanity disappear?"

Duanmu Huai swung his wrist, picking up the Chainsaw Sword.

"Isn’t this much more convenient than running around swatting cockroaches? Open the door, Chris! Let me finish off those disgusting gelatinous Slimes!"

"This......"

Chris blinked, looking at the blonde woman, then at Duanmu Huai.

She is just a ten-year-old child, knowing this blonde woman is a villain so she absolutely cannot do what she says.

But... why does the sister who rescued her also agree with what the villain says?

So should she open it or not?

Yukine Chris’s little head faced this complex situation, her CPU burned out.

Lying on the ground, Tenpou Zou and Feng Mingyi, overwhelmed with emotions, couldn’t speak a word. Hence, Yukine Chris could only cast her eyes toward Hei Chuan Chi Yin—in her subconscious, this gentle sister was probably the easiest to rely on.

Faced with Yukine Chris’s pleading gaze, Hei Chuan Chi Yin glanced helplessly at Duanmu Huai, then looked back at Yukine Chris.

"Open it, Chris, we assure you that what you’re worried about will absolutely not happen."

"Mm...!"

Perhaps Hei Chuan Chi Yin’s assurance dispelled Yukine Chris’s last trace of doubt, she gripped the Holy Relic tightly in her hands. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

"I trust you, sister!"

The next moment, as Yukine Chris’s voice fell, a golden light suddenly burst from the top of the Holy Relic, shooting directly into the sky!
