The power of [Death] intimidated everyone in this space, causing the energy field that had previously been filled with combat aura to calm down.

Even [War] fell silent.

The Arbitrator was also somewhat surprised. To come straight out with conditions right from the start, this was really giving quite a lot of face. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

He turned his head to look at "Sin," wanting to see his reaction.

But he discovered that on that twisted pink face, a pair of eyes were just fixedly staring at [Death], still muttering there.

"I envy you..."

After saying that, the pink face had twisted into something almost indescribable, and the divine power constantly swelling on his body vanished another portion.

The Arbitrator had never understood whether this was absorption or consumption on the other's part. If it was consumption, where was it being consumed to!

[You really are persistent...]

[Death] said somewhat helplessly. Although He didn't quite understand what the other was doing, there was no need for Him to be so wary and desperately block it.

Let him be.

And as that envious sentence was spoken, Lu Ce's mind also stabilized somewhat. Looking at [Death], he opened his mouth:

"So you are [Death]... doesn't seem all that different."

"Conditions? Referring to what? Compensation for your unfair behind-the-scenes manipulation aimed at me?"

Listening to his words, the Arbitrator on the other side couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.

You really have the nerve to say that!

Stopping at nothing, behind-the-scenes manipulation, cheating and reneging—these are clearly your usual tactics. How can you so smoothly pin them on someone else's head?

[Think whatever you want, isn't this what you wanted originally anyway?]

[Death] didn't seem to care about "Sin's" slander.

[After arriving here, you've been trying to make everything more chaotic, then picking fights everywhere to dig up some advantages for yourself.]

[Death]'s voice was always unhurried, even sounding somewhat gentle.

Death forever gently envelops everyone.

[Everyone says you're a madman, but after this contact, I feel it's not just that.]

Not just... meaning he still is a madman, right?

The Arbitrator grumbled inwardly.

[Your respect for the Game is the most extreme among all players.]

[You are always trying to find advantages as much as possible, seeking loopholes in the Game, to the point of stopping at nothing.]

[I appreciate this attitude of yours.]

The Arbitrator stared blankly at [Death]. Wait, is that how you interpret him?

"Heh heh..." Lu Ce grinned, "Well said. But, do you get to decide?"

"You seem to be my opponent, the contestant I'll be facing in a gamble later."

"Why is it up to you to decide how the Game should proceed, how the rules should be adjusted?"

"Here, the one who masters the rules is my brother the Arbitrator, and [War] over here is also present. How come you get to have the final say?"

[Death]: ?

He didn't expect the other's first words to be this.

The Arbitrator was also stunned for a moment, quickly showing his loyalty to clear the relationship, immediately speaking up:

"I have no objections, you guys chat first. Whatever ideas you have in the end, come tell me then."

"Also, I am not the master of the rules, I am merely the adjudicator."

But while He had no problem, Lu Ce's words reminded [War].

[If there's nothing to do, there's no need to chat so much.]

As [War]'s words fell, He directly raised His long spear once again.

[Death] immediately felt a headache. He knew this guy wouldn't give Him face either, but He still summoned His Death Scythe at the first moment.

That purple-black scythe spanned the sky, blocking the space between [War] and "Sin."

[Wait! You have your own Game over there, don't come meddle in mine.]

[And from what I know, the Game on your side also has some connection to him, right? You'll cause major problems for all our Games!]

[War]'s body language seemed somewhat hesitant.

After a long while, He still spoke with unusual firmness:

[No, He cannot die by your hand. I said...]

[Ah, enough! Stop with your 'I said.']

Death was instantly somewhat annoyed, interrupting.

He always felt this was a hassle. If this couldn't be clarified, His upcoming Game might be interfered with midway by [War].

[Then, how about...?]

As He spoke, He looked at the Arbitrator, wondering if, when setting rules again later, He should reconsider this guy.

"Oh? Is that what you're worried about?"

Right at this moment, Lu Ce suddenly spoke up.

"You're worried you won't get another chance to face me later?"

"I think it's very simple... After I defeat Him, then come play with you, won't that work?"

......

"What is our Game? Why hasn't it started yet?"

In another void space, Xie Antong ultimately couldn't hold back and took the initiative to speak.

Opposite her, [Pleasure] was sitting there with a beaming smile.

The two had been sitting facing each other in this void space, maintaining a strange silence for quite a while.

It was only at the very beginning of the Game that [Pleasure], very mysteriously, pulled Xie Antong to sit down and said one sentence:

"My Game is never boring. Wait a moment. Soon, you will witness a surprise."

Then, the atmosphere fell into an eerie silence.

"...What exactly is this surprise you mentioned?" Xie Antong pressed again, her brows furrowed.

Could the Game have already started now? What trick is this [Pleasure] pulling again?

But what she didn't know was that [Pleasure] was equally confused at this moment. He didn't know what [Death], "Sin," and the Arbitrator were up to.

Why hadn't they come over after all this time? He was here facing Xie Antong and was already unable to maintain his composure.

Seems like they're arguing? Not too clear. Why is [War] involved as well...

Since He had now essentially entered His own game world, He couldn't casually probe around and could only wait.

Hearing Xie Antong's confused voice, He could only continue maintaining His dignified style, smiling as He said:

[Heh heh, this can also be considered a test from me to you. If you lose patience and become impatient so quickly, it will be very hard for you to win later.]

Xie Antong: ?

As He spoke, [Pleasure] slowly stood up, softly muttering to Himself.

[Why haven't those useless trash come over yet, what are they doing...]

"What did you say? Who are we waiting for?" Xie Antong asked, taken aback.

[Ah, nothing. This is the surprise for later.]

[Forget it, let's start first, get straight to the point. Little girl, don't you think that if a grand performance has no audience, it cannot be called grand?]
