Hero? Are You Worthy?
Chapter 881 - 578: Soul Dispersed in Despair (2 chapters, 8000 words)
Rose Vesper's soul, originally the same size as her body, was a dense gray mist, writhing incessantly.
But under the suppression of Qin Chu's strength, the soul was forced to shrink into a mass, forming a dense black sphere, grasped in Qin Chu's palm.
At this moment, all Qin Chu had to do was exert a bit of force with his five fingers, and he could immediately crush Rose Vesper's soul.
But Qin Chu did not do so.
He just raised his right hand, admiring the soul of Rose Vesper in his palm.
The soul, forced to shrink into a sphere, was still desperately struggling, seemingly wanting to break free from Qin Chu's suppression and rush towards the position where her beloved was.
The surface of the condensed soul sphere appeared even clearer than the original gray mist, possibly due to the high compression, revealing a shrunken face of Rose Vesper on the surface.
This face maintained the appearance Rose Vesper had before her death, with blood flowing from her seven orifices—eyes, ears, nose, and mouth—and five hideous blood holes on her forehead.
Rose Vesper's lips were forcefully open; if perceived with the soul, one could certainly hear the sharp lament.
Even though her body had already been killed by Jie Luo, in Rose Vesper's soul, Qin Chu still felt not an ounce of hatred toward Jie Luo, only an urgency to resolve the misunderstanding.
This woman truly loved Jie Luo unwaveringly, even until death.
Qin Chu was moved by Rose Vesper's sincere emotions, so he decided to generously reveal all the truth to her soul.
Ronald, Benson, Muse, Karsas, Aileen... all the enemies Qin Chu had personally killed, he did not leave them much of a chance.
After killing their bodies, he would also burn their souls to ashes.
But Rose Vesper was clearly an exception; Qin Chu planned to let her soul exist for a little longer.
"Hush..." Qin Chu emitted a gentle sound.
But this sound, besides Qin Chu and the soul of Rose Vesper in his palm, even the nearby Little Saye could not hear... Qin Chu directly used strength to send this sound into Rose Vesper's soul.
Upon hearing Qin Chu's voice, the soul that had been desperately struggling suddenly quieted down, the face on the surface of the soul sphere suddenly rotating, and eyes flowing with dark red liquid stared fixedly at Qin Chu.
Completely different from facing Jie Luo, even though Qin Chu had just spoken a good word for Rose Vesper, upon seeing Qin Chu, her eyes were still filled with anger and hatred.
The twisted soul nearly frenziedly opened its mouth, revealing sharp teeth, as if wishing desperately to leap onto Qin Chu and tear off a piece of fresh flesh.
"Do you hate me?"
"Rose Vesper, you have no reason to hate me, truly." Qin Chu's smile remained unchanged, only slowly channeling his voice into Rose Vesper's soul.
"You must understand, I have not done anything against you, but instead, you wanted with all your heart to kill me even when I had neither harmed nor offended you... You might say, you've even killed me once..."
"Ah, you probably didn't know, after all, in this life, that scene didn't happen."
Killed Qin Chu once? In this life?
Rose Vesper's soul, originally filled with anger and agitation, seemed stimulated by something, suddenly trembled violently; from Qin Chu's words, her soul perceived some different information.
She opened her mouth but could not utter any sound.
"It seems you understand some things now, no wonder you were the former Holy Daughter, so intelligent, you guessed correctly. I, indeed, have died once, killed by you... Ahem, that time I lived on the Sky Dome Continent for seven years. We together repelled demons, we together killed the Demon King, but in the end, you stabbed me in the back... However, fortunately for me, a powerful witch, who was forced... ahem, voluntarily entangled with me, reversed time, allowing me to return to just when I first arrived in this world..."
Truly, Qin Chu had started to doubt whether the time reversal was actually the work of Dark Witch Shaye Nicholas.
Perhaps not!
After all, although Shaye Nicholas's strength was immense, she didn't have the capability to even reverse time.
One must know, there are many beings in this world much stronger than Shaye Nicholas... the seven Evil Gods in the Void, the Holy Light Goddess, the Goddess of Destiny...
Even if using a massive amount of soul blood and flesh as sacrifice, even if sacrificing all the Dark Witch's strength, could never achieve it.
Qin Chu in his heart started speculating that behind Dark Witch Shaye Nicholas, there must exist some mysterious and even more powerful force.
Is it the arrangement of the Goddess of Destiny?
Or the remnant will of the Strongest Evil God?
Undoubtedly, this content caused a strong impact on Rose Vesper's will, her soul being struck like by lightning, stiff in Qin Chu's palm, without a hint of movement.
The eyes on the soul were filled with endless fear and even despair.
"So do you understand now, all your arrangements, all your plans, I know them all inside out, even I might say I know everything better than you."
