For example, the cathedral on Sundays.
Uesugi Koshi also had a major problem. He was a devout believer and, because of the sins he had committed, firmly believed that people like him should go to hell and be judged in the lake of fire.
It can be said that Uesugi Koshi was completely opposed to Lord.
Lord's plan is to use earthly experiences to reverse the divine and human nature of Gao Kui, so that he will abandon the Last Judgment or execute the judgment with a more lenient standard.
God's love is different from human love. God loves the world, so He is angry, sends down floods, and judges the world. Humans love the world, so They forgive the world and bear all the sins of the world.
However, if Uesugi Echizen firmly advocates judging sinners, and if Takagi spends more time with Uesugi Echizen, he will definitely be gradually pushed towards the divine side of executing judgment. Then what's the point of having a Lord?
"What a coincidence!"
Mai Shude grumbled, "Gao Kui suddenly lost control of his emotions and wandered aimlessly all the way to St. Mary's Cathedral. It just so happens to be Sunday, and he just so happens to run into Uesugi Kotsugi..."
All the conditions unfavorable to the Lord have come together today, as if something is planning something against the Lord, laying out a counter-plan.
"That's why I said this was an accident that was bound to happen. You can also call this kind of accident: fate." The boss sighed leisurely, revealing the mystery.
What is divine will?
What is heaven?
Jiu De Mai and Su Enxi felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
Asou Makoto thought that her being entangled with Shinji Aoba was fate, and that her encounter with Takagi and his group was fate, but in reality, it was all arranged by Mai Shutoku and her group.
Even without Mai and the others' arrangements, all of this would still have happened, because the Lord wanted it to happen, so it was indeed fate.
Lord wouldn't actively push Gao Kui to the Church of St. Mary and Uesugi Yue's side, so what divine will is guiding all of this?
That's fucking hard to guess.
Suddenly, Mai raised her palm, examined it carefully from all angles, then sniffed it, and finally even stuck out her tongue to lick her palm.
"What are you doing?" Su Enxi was completely baffled.
"I'm checking if my body has turned into salt."
Even after confirming that her hands hadn't turned into salt, Mai Shude was still uneasy and began checking other parts of her body.
The Lord is, to put it mildly, opposing Him, and they are His allies. Given His nature, He might very well punish them by turning them into pillars of salt.
"What are you afraid of? You're Gao Kui's girlfriend, and you could even be considered his daughter-in-law. I'm the one who should be afraid." Su Enxi rubbed her little belly, a faint sadness rising in her heart.
Can you wait until I lose my belly fat before turning me into a pillar of salt? This belly fat is really ruining my image.
"Thank you for acknowledging my status as the Holy Son's Bride." Mai rolled her eyes; she herself didn't believe that Gao Kui would accept her as his girlfriend.
"Don't worry unnecessarily. If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up," the boss said, indicating that the two of them didn't need to worry.
Is it possible that He might harm them? It's not impossible; no one can fathom His thoughts. But at least, He won't act now, because God's game hasn't ended at this point in time.
"So Lord resolved the unexpected situation?" Mai asked aloud, but she already knew the answer in her heart.
That's for sure. If the problem isn't solved, then Gao Kui should probably be standing in heaven now, presiding over the Last Judgment, bringing the righteous to his side and casting the sinners into the lake of fire.
"Lord delivered the high school girl just in time."
The boss smiled at Mai Shude and said, "Congratulations, Mai, your boyfriend now has two girlfriends at the same time."
“This joke isn’t funny at all,” said Mai Shude, her face hardening.
"No, this is not a joke. Before the high school girl arrived, he told Uesugi Koshi that he had a girlfriend. Who do you think his girlfriend was?"
What you see as Gao Kui's joke is not. It is a promise. God will not break a promise on his own initiative; only humans will.
You could even go downstairs right now and let him fulfill his duties as a boyfriend.
Mai Shude remained unmoved: "So he's still a god now?"
"Lord's assessment is yes, his divinity still holds absolute sway, and the high school girl hasn't changed much."
The boss picked up his champagne glass, turned around and looked out at the neon lights: "We need to act more efficiently until the day God is willing to break the law for some people."
Chapter 142 Long Yuan
Dark clouds hung low, churning in the sky. Inside Shin-Osaka Station, the surging crowds moved at an even faster pace than usual. A storm was brewing, and no one wanted to get soaked to the bone.
The plaza in front of the station was packed with taxis, and the taxi drivers were all smiles. Taxis in Japan are very expensive, and few people are willing to take a taxi unless absolutely necessary. The impending bad weather will make it easier for them to open for business.
The black Maybach 57S stood out among the row of taxis. Perhaps due to their shared origins, the taste of the Ghost Clan's high-ranking members in cars was strikingly similar to that of the Snake Clan.
Sakurai Kogure sat in the driver's seat, opened the window and stretched her hand out: "It's going to rain, Dragon King."
Kazama Ruri sat in the back row, in the boss's seat, dressed in a gorgeous courtesan outfit, her long, smooth hair cascading naturally down her chest. With her eyes lightly closed, she casually replied, "Mm."
Although Sakurai Kogure had previously harbored inappropriate feelings for her, Kazama Ruri was able to forgive her out of ignorance.
Besides, apart from Sakurai Kogure, she had no one more trustworthy to rely on; the other party was already the most trustworthy among the Oni Clan.
"Do they really have to cooperate? The Gattuso family's Trieste is a better option."
Having done her homework, Sakurai Kogure didn't quite understand Kazama Ruri's choice and asked, "That submersible once dived to the Mariana Trench, more than 10,000 meters below the surface, in 1960. It was later acquired by the Gattuso family and has been well preserved in a submersible museum they established."
And that deep-sea submersible can carry two people.
James Cameron's Deepsea Challenger, which has only just been completed and is said to be aimed at breaking deep-sea diving records, still has an unknown performance.
Most importantly, the Deepsea Challenger can only carry one person. Even after modifications, it can only carry one bomb externally to break the seal, and cannot accommodate more people or bombs.
Why not buy or lease the Gattuso family's Trieste?
Do you think I wouldn't think of the problems you can think of?
Kazama Ruri slowly opened her eyes and said, "We had no choice at all. Just the day before yesterday, I sent people disguised as a deep-sea diving team to try to buy the Gattuso family's deep-sea submersible."
Even if I offered three times the market price, the answer was always the same: no sale.
The Gattuso family seems to value that deep-sea submersible no less than we do; they must have some special purpose in keeping the Trieste.
Since parting ways with the prince of Northern Qi, Kazama Ruri has been thinking about one thing every day: to ascend to become a dragon, break free of her shackles, kill the king general, and then live happily ever after with her beloved.
This is a series of tasks, not a single task.
To be with your beloved forever, you must get rid of the king. To get rid of the king, you must defeat him and kill him.
But during her years of struggle, Kazama Ruri had come to understand one thing: she had developed an almost instinctive fear of the King.
That guy is terrifying; it might be a spell or some other secret technique.
Whenever she tried to break free from the king's control, he would strike the eerie clapper, completely shattering her will and leaving her unable to live or die.
Given the current situation, there is no way she can defeat the King, unless she can achieve her final evolution.
For thousands of years, the Ghost Clan has believed in the existence of the "Path to the Underworld," which allows hybrids to evolve into pure-blooded dragons. The Ghost Clan has relentlessly pursued the Path to the Underworld; it is their unwavering faith.
So, what exactly is this so-called Road to the Underworld?
He is the White King who was sealed in the "Burial Place of the Gods".
All mixed-race individuals in Japan are descendants of the White King, because initially, people were transformed into mixed-race individuals not through intercourse but through blood contamination. The descendants of the White King in Japan have always had a systematic bloodline defect.
The bloodline defects caused by the White King should naturally be resolved by the White King. Finding the burial place of the gods, resurrecting the White King, receiving the White King's blessing, and evolving into a pure-blooded dragon are the obsessions of the Demon Clan.
In the past, Kazama Ruri scoffed at this so-called faith. Evolution, pure-blooded dragons, the White King—she didn't care about any of it. There was nothing in this world worth staying for.
Now, she has a reason and motivation to evolve into a pure-blooded dragon. If she evolves into a dragon, she can completely get rid of and crush the King General.
The location of the burial site had actually been known for a long time; all that was lacking was the right opportunity. Kazama Ruri had no intention of waiting for the right opportunity, nor did she have the patience to wait.
Just do it now!
Whether it was because they saw through her ambition or because they also planned to awaken the White King now, two days ago the King suddenly summoned her back to Osaka and immediately began to awaken the White King. His plan was called: Dragon Abyss Project.
The two, each with their own agenda, hit it off immediately and, after discussing it, set their sights on the Gattuso family's Driste.
To awaken the White King, they must reach the Burial Ground of the Gods. However, the Burial Ground of the Gods sank more than 8,000 meters underwater in a trench over a thousand years ago, and humans and hybrids must rely on technology to reach it.
Unfortunately, the Gattuso family wouldn't sell.
Just when they were at their wits' end, a mysterious team secretly contacted them, claiming that they had bought a deep-sea submersible capable of diving to a depth of 10,000 meters from the famous director James Cameron and could lend it to them for free.
The condition is that the other party must also join the plan.
Kazama Ruri and the King reluctantly agreed. They couldn't wait any longer; even at the risk of dancing with dragons, they had to be forced into it.
"Hi, I apologize for being presumptuous."
Sakurai Kogure lowered her head in shame.
Kazama Ruri remained silent and closed her eyes again.
Dark clouds loomed over the city, thunder roared, and torrential rain poured down. A bullet train from the direction of Tokyo tore through the rain and entered Shin-Osaka Station.
Sakurai Kogure suddenly looked towards the high-speed rail station exit: "Lord Dragon King, he's out!"
Ruri Kazama suddenly opened her eyes.
A tall, slender young man stepped out of the high-speed rail station, wearing a long black trench coat and a mask. His features resembled those of the famous Hollywood actor Keanu Reeves, but he was more stylish and younger.
John Wick, hands in his pockets, looked like an ordinary foreign tourist visiting Osaka, standing at the high-speed rail station exit, looking around blankly.
Sakurai Kogure quickly got out of the car, stood in the rain, waved vigorously at the other person, and shouted in English, "Come here, come here!"
With his gaze fixed on Sakurai Kogure and confirming her identity, John Wick strode over with his hands in his pockets, opened the passenger door, and got in.
"You can speak Japanese, I speak Japanese."
John Wick removed his mask and, in standard Kanto-accented Japanese, indicated that Kogure Sakurai didn't need to speak English at all.
Sakurai Kogure sat back in the car, sizing up the young John Wick, feeling extremely uneasy and unsure how to begin. This man's background was simply too impressive.
Not long ago, he launched a surprise attack on the talent cradle of the Secret Party, the strongest mixed-race force in the West. He "joined forces" with the prince of Northern Qi to overthrow half of Kassel and escaped unscathed. He is currently wanted by the Secret Party worldwide as a "suspected humanoid second-generation race or humanoid dragon king".
“John Wick, or Mr. Wick, that’s what my clients call me.” Noticing that Sakurai Kogure was a little nervous, John Wick took the initiative to ease the tension.
Kogure Sakurai returned a polite smile: "Mr. Wick, your Japanese is excellent."
"After all, I'm a bounty hunter."
John Wick shrugged: "In our line of work, we always have to deal with people from all over the world, and we gradually learn many languages."
Do bounty hunters necessarily have to be fluent in multiple languages?
That's not the case. Sakurai Kogure has also dealt with some bounty hunters, and the vast majority of them only speak English in addition to their native language.
