Chapter 481 Extra 6: Coercing Favor (End)
Just like El said.
She saved him, so he needs to repay her.
Hermanubis could not let her out, but wanted to grant her wish.
For a long time before, he tried to rekindle El's hope of living in this world, but unfortunately, he failed.
Because Hermanubis doesn't understand ordinary desert people.
He is just a priest under the throne of the Red King. He does not need to understand the thoughts of mortals. He only needs to carry out the will of the Red King. He only needs to hold the weapon in his hand and show his most cruel side to all enemies.
...that's how it should be.
To be fair, El is just an ordinary mortal. She just happened to touch a taboo and was pressed harder and harder, and finally reached this ending.
The most dazzling golden eyes in the desert changed from perfunctory and fanatical when they first met, to fear and anger later, and finally turned into calm and pleading.
Pray for what?
【Let me live. 】
【Let me go. 】
【Let me die. 】
It seemed that the vivid emotions in her eyes were wiped out step by step. At first, the enthusiasm in her eyes was very strong, but later even the hatred became too indifferent.
Hermanubis showed her the sun.
The moment he saw El killing someone and bathing in the sun, Hermanubis suddenly understood.
In fact, he still doesn't understand humans.
I don’t understand El either.
Maybe he should have understood El's desire. She was tortured by the darkness to the point of going crazy, and she also had an extraordinary yearning for the sun. If she couldn't go out, she would only...
Wanted to die very, very, very much.
But she happened to have the "Devil's Blessing" called "immortality" on her body.
Is there any way to reduce the power of "Demon God's Blessing"?
Hermanubis thought about it but could not get the answer.
It wasn't until later that a battle inspired me.
--seal.
Yes, seal.
Seal, reducing the power of "Demon God's Blessing". She has become crazy, her spirit seems to have been stretched to the limit, and she seems to be on the verge of breaking.
...No, maybe it's broken.
Therefore, the memory should be taken away based on the seal.
Correct.
Take away the memory.
That's it.
A vague method gradually appeared in his mind. Hermanubis began to outline the shape of the plan in his thoughts, and then began to prepare materials and start making the unique "repayment".
But that "repayment" was only about to be done, and he didn't even have time to think of the words in his mind, how to give this "repayment" to her.
She just killed the guards and the others and stood there.
So Hermanubis finally took action against her.
What does it feel like when a spear penetrates your body?
Hermanubis never thought about the feelings of his enemies. But El's eyes suddenly opened wide, and the look in his eyes was like an unspeakable comedy.
He seemed a little relieved, but even he couldn't see clearly that he was being watched.
The golden eyes finally dimmed, and the beautiful arc appeared briefly and then disappeared quickly. The madman died in his hands and was about to wake up in his hands.
Because of "immortality".
Hermanubis needs to reduce its power quickly.
He knew that Il regretted it. At what "degree" should the research power of ordinary people stop? Il exceeded this "degree" too much, so it would lead to a series of consequences.
He took out the triangular cone.
This triangular cone-shaped sealed object was something he had carefully crafted for several years.
The edges and corners glowed with metallic luster, and under the sunlight, the triangular cone slowly hung above El's body.
This sealed object can consume the power as expected, and can also seal the memory.
But out of some selfish motives that I didn't realize...
Hermanubis did not erase himself from her memory.
It just helped her cut out the painful details.
It’s okay to hate.
If it is hate.
At least remember him.
"Goodbye, El," Hermanubis said softly.
He placed the person in his arms in the sealed place, then stretched out his hand, and could finally gently tidy up her messy hair.
Before the triangular pyramid seal could even be given a name, it was placed beside Il so quickly by Hermanubis.
[I saved you, you have to repay me. 】
She demanded a favor, and this was the "reward" given by Hermanubis.
Hermanubis tried to understand an ordinary person.
In his eyes, El is a fool, a madman, and a transgressor. She pursues power that mortals cannot seek. She does transgressive things that mortals dare not do. He thinks that her will should be just like what she does. It's amazing, but the facts are there.
Decades of pursuit made El uncontrollable in anger, so she swung her sword at the Red King.
Decades of confinement left El with lingering fear, so she begged Hermanubis to die.
It took Hermanubis such a long time, but when he finally realized something, Il had been forced to go down a path of no return.
"...Sleep well." He said to El who could no longer hear him.
