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.
“You’re saying that——- all of those things you said needed to go through what you call ‘purchasing’ in order to turn into your possession, correct?”
The person asked.
The Abyssal Demon Dragon nodded again and again: “Yes, yes, money is a widely recognized embodiment of value that can be used to purchase various things”
“So that’s the reason, no wonder when we ate without paying earlier, those people chased us for several blocks” the person commented with interest.
The Abyssal Demon Dragon showed a flattering smile and said: “Your Excellency, if you had just given me an order, I would have easily killed those people”
“No, that is too uninteresting. It’s a lot more fun to abide by rules” the person turned around and glared at the Demon Dragon like a warning.
The Abyssal Demon Dragon immediately answered: “Of course, everything is as you will”
“That’s much better. Now, tell me why is everyone looking at me so strangely?”
“Your Excellency, perhaps it is because you are wearing a skirt”
“What is a ‘skirt’?”
“It’s a kind of clothing item specialized for female”
“So that’s 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 interesting”
The person then stood in the middle of the road and took off all his clothes.
“There, no more issues” the person triumphantly said.
The Abyssal Demon Dragon’s lips trembled a bit and said: “Your Excellency, while in the 900 million World Layers, it is more respectable to wear clothes in a public setting”
“Why?”
“Because in the 900 million World Layers, living beings like to use their first impression of another through their appearance and clothing”
“So for living beings, appearance is most important?”
“That is the case”
The person sighed emotionally: “So that is how it is? No wonder after I stripped myself, even more eyes are focusing on me now——- it truly is troublesome to be human”
“That is so, your Excellency” this time, the Demon Dragon replied full of sympathy.
The person then asked: “Young one, if appearance is truly that important, then is there a place to cater specifically to appearance?”
Hearing that, the Abyssal Demon Dragon fell into thought.
——-this terrifying entity most likely doesn’t 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 ‘die’.
Then…
“Your Excellency, that building there is for managing one’s appearance”
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.
“What are those words saying?”
“Washing, cutting, drying hair, 10 Credits”
“10 Credits——- is that the currency?”
“Yes”
“Do we have 10 Credits?”
“Do not worry, your Excellency, even though I usually don’t carry money outside, I still brought enough for a hairdo”
“Very well, then let us go”
“Please wait, your Excellency, I must prepare an outfit for you first. Walking on the street without clothes is a very attention-seeking thing to do”
“Ah, I don’t like drawing attention. Quickly, find me a set of male clothing”
“Yes”
An hour later.
The Abyssal Demon Dragon escorted that person out of the stylish haircut establishment.
At this point, the person’s 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.
“Hm, very good, now the people on the street are no longer looking at me” 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: “Why are they fighting?”
The Demon Dragon replied: “Because they are competing over a treasure”
“What treasure?”
“That would be the gun in that man’s hand”
“You mean that black item?”
“Indeed, it is an excellent pistol. Unfortunately not yet fully repaired, otherwise, it would be quite a fine thing” the Demon Dragon explained.
Hearing that, the person swiped his hand at the air.
The black pistol immediately appeared in his hand.
“Something like this is considered a treasure?”
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.
“Despicable thief”
“You want to die!?”
The two of them angrily swooped down towards him.
Seeing their reactions, the person nodded: “Seems like it really is a treasure”
The person flicked his hand and threw the gun back in the air.
The two men went back to competing over it.
——but before they did, they each unleashed an attack at the man below.
Perhaps it was to probe him, or just a casual habit.
Either way——-
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.
“Did they just try to kill me?” the person asked.
“Yes they did, your Excellency” the Demon Dragon respectfully answered.
“Didn’t I already return their item to them?”
“But they were still angry”
“So you can kill people just because you’re angry?”
“Of course not, but they are Lord-class Combatant, so they don’t care about how other people look at them”
“Because they don’t care about how other people think, they can ignore the rules?”
“Indeed, your Excellency, that is how they think”
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.
“Who are you… sir?”
“Spare me! Spare me!”
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 person’s hand.
“Inferior souls, completely worthless”
The person glanced at them and scoffed.
He casually threw the two souls away.
The Demon Dragon swiftly received the souls and smiled: “Such weak and miserable creatures dared to try and attack a legendary sovereign of the Abyss. This level of ignorance and self-righteousness is truly laughable”
The person nodded in agreement as he heard that: “Slaughtering 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 evolve”
“Why is that so, your Excellency?” 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.
“I suppose it’s fine to tell you. Since you’re going to be following me from now on, it is best that you understand such a basic matter”
“That is true, your Excellency, I am extremely grateful for your generosity, please bestow upon me the knowledge of the Abyss”
The person replied: “Inferior 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 evolve”
The Demon Dragon muses briefly before deflating: “Your Excellency, I seemed to have never received the gaze of the Abyss before”
The person abruptly started laughing: “Ahahaha, then you must quickly try harder”
“After all——”
“The Eternal Abyss will soon thoroughly fuse with the 900 million World Layers. Against the penetration of the parallel world’s Apocalypse, this is the only way out”
“A new Era is upon us!”
