,!

In the darkness, a pair of pale hands reached out to the sky.

But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't catch anything.

…

He once pondered several questions.

Where do other agents go after death?

If their existence disappears from the world, can it be called "death"?

After the end of the first life, he ushered in the second life with memory.

This is a world different from the previous life.

There is no war, no massacre, no smell of gunpowder smoke or dust in the air; looking out from the window, the bungalows and high-rise buildings have not collapsed, the street lamps are only used for lighting and no corpses are hung, and the pedestrians on the road have complete limbs and facial features, with exposed skin No malformed tumors growing under the influence of radiation...

is a very peaceful place.

This made him very uncomfortable, and at the same time, he was surprised to find that his current body was extremely fragile.

He can no longer easily jump off the glacier of hundreds of meters like in his previous life. Now he will fracture when he is pressed, and he will bleed when he is pressed.

As he adapts to his new body, he adapts to this new world.

There is a park near his residence, and one day, he meets a girl.

She was about the same age as him, squatting on the sand field with her back to him and kept busy. He wanted to talk to her several times, but she ignored her, and just concentrated on doing the work in hand.

He is attracted to her. She stayed there for a month, and he went there to see it for a month.

He was her first follower.

She used water to bind the gravel and made a stunning church in the sand. At first he didn't know what it was called, but the crowd told him that it was the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, ​​because she was very good at making it so realistic that they could recognize it at a glance.

In reality, it took more than a hundred years for the church to be completed, and the imitation church on the battlefield was also quite laborious to make.

There were more and more people onlookers, and every onlooker was cautious, for fear of accidentally spoiling her efforts, he also mixed in the crowd, watching her quietly.

Almost everyone is looking forward to the day when the church will be completed.

However, that day never came.

—When the church was about to be completed, the entire sandcastle was completely trampled.

The onlookers were very sorry, and some people went to comfort the crying girl standing in front of the battlefield. It was a bit late when he arrived that day, and many people had already dispersed. Even those who were kind enough to comfort the girl gradually lost patience amid her constant crying, and finally chose to leave the park.

In the end, only he and she were left around the battlefield.

Looking at the remains of the sandcastle, he felt strange and strange movements in his heart.

He doesn't know what it feels like, he lost the ability to perceive emotions a long time ago, and now he can't even tell the basic emotions from anger to emotion. Seeing that she was still standing there with her head down, he imitated the previous comforter and put his hands on her shoulders.

Before he could speak, the crying stopped, and she suddenly raised her head to look at him.

This is the first time they look at each other.

He will never forget the look in her eyes and the smile on her face at that time.

"I'm only telling you, I actually broke it."

"Bang! Bang! Pop!—Just three or two times, and I completely ruined the result that took me a month to complete!"

With tears on her face, she smiled brightly.

…

His world has always been black.

He had never seen the real blue sky and sunshine in the previous life, but he did see it in this life, but he didn't care about it anymore. He doesn't ask for any bright colors in his world until he sees her.

——The emotion in those eyes instantly lit up his whole world.

He became the most loyal follower of Despair.

——

The boat was still sinking slowly.

At the very front of the deck, Spiatus raised his hand to caress the left side of his neck, which was the Fenrir wolf tattoo he brought from his previous life to the present.

"Boss, do you have anything you like?"

- "My words should be completely opposite to yours."

"Will your heir's style of doing things be different from yours?"

——"It's different, because our dreams... To be precise, what we each pursue are fundamentally different."

They are indeed different.

He doesn't like money, he likes rich and powerful people who are poor and have no dignity.

He doesn't like good-looking people, he likes beautiful people who care about their appearance and sink into the mud with their faces ruined.

He likes the white-haired people who love their children to send black-haired people.

He likes the poor students who have been in the poor school for ten years, and all their efforts are ruined.

He likes terminally ill patients who have emptied their homes and smashed his last life-saving medicine.

He likes criminals with all kinds of bad records to step into the snares set by the police when they think they have escaped.

He loves how brave cops can see more criminals surround them just when they think they've got help.

He likes to crush their arrogance and destroy their beliefs in front of the great lone warriors, making them kneel down on their beloved land, watching him leave chaotic fire to destroy the homeland they want to defend.

Because he doesn't like home.

He just likes the destruction of his family.

Spiatus raised his face and looked up.

The fireworks bloomed, but he couldn't see such beauty. All he saw was the black sky that seemed to have no end in sight.

…like what he saw when he climbed to the top of the glacier.

Spiatus laughed, and the laughter echoed across the empty deck.

Today may be the happiest day since he came to this world. The despair of so many people made him feel unprecedentedly happy.

However, before he could feel this intense joy carefully, the deck under his feet suddenly shook heavily.

— The sinking of the ship stopped.

"..."

The laughter stopped abruptly, as if he realized something, he looked back.

Jing Baiye was running towards him.

——

Jing Baiye once had parents in the second life.

His father in that life was a drug addict, and his mother committed suicide early because she couldn't stand him. It was a broken and twisted family.

At that time, Jing Baiye didn't understand what family affection was and how to get along with relatives. Even if he beat him, his first reaction was normal, because his past caregiver also treated him like this, holding his hand like a teacher , People who can hug him, he can't extravagantly ask for a second one.

So he's not unhappy, he's just a little... hurt.

His body is not the same as in the past. His calf will be broken if he is pressed down with a stool, and he will bleed if he is pressed against his body with a cigarette butt.

Once, Jing Baiye was burnt on his neck with a cigarette **** by his drug-addicted father, and he ran to a nearby park clutching his wound. There were not many people in the park, and he saw a girl standing in front of a big sandcastle on the sand field.

He was dumbfounded at the time, never expecting that ordinary sand could be turned into such a work of art.

Building is a more difficult job than destroying it—it took thousands of years for human civilization to be established, but only a few years for it to be on the verge of extinction. Jingbaiye, who has experienced the end of the world, knows this better than anyone else.

He admired the girl so much that he even forgot the pain in his neck. He wanted to go up to talk to her, but he didn't expect that the girl smashed the sandcastle with her bare hands in the next second.

In just an instant, the sand castle that was about to be completed was completely destroyed.

…

The slanted hull made it difficult for Jing Baiye to stand still, and he looked at Spiatus who was standing not far away.

He was relieved to see him unscathed.

He didn't know why he suddenly thought of what happened in the last life, which obviously had nothing to do with the present.

After so many years, Jing Baiye could no longer remember that girl's expression at that time, and he didn't even remember her appearance, but he still hasn't forgotten his own feelings at that time.

It's not that I regret not stopping her, it's not that I hate her for doing that, but it's a kind of...

Pity.

A pity to see something beautiful destroyed so easily.

He would never understand why she did it.

"boss..."

Jing Baiye stood opposite Spiatus, and he stretched out his hand to him~lightnovelpub.net~ The ship will not sink. "

"As long as I'm on this ship, this ship will never sink."

[Active skill - vehicle savior: As long as the vehicle does not disintegrate on the spot, it can turn the tide and minimize the loss of life and property. 】

This is the skill he got when he traveled to Hakone Town and rescued the koi girl.

——

"..."

Spiatus watched the white night.

The two stood so close that they could hug each other with their arms raised. Their gaze was like looking in a mirror.

It's so close, it seems like you can reach out - but you can never touch the other side.

At this time, there was a more dazzling light in the distance, and Spiatus was silent for a while, evoking a helpless...smile.

"As expected of you..."

he sighed.
