WTYTIAAN Chapter 270

Chapter 270

Dimitrius tilted his head, looking at the wary Yan Yunqing with interest. “It seems you care about him a lot. Is it because you lived with Dimitrius for a while that you can’t bear to abandon him?”

Yan Yunqing: ???

He didn’t, he wasn’t!

Why did it sound so ambiguous?

Yan Yunqing’s mouth twitched a few times. He strongly suspected that Kien was doing it on purpose, but he had no proof.

He felt Theodore’s gaze on him, and the twitching of Yan Yunqing’s mouth intensified. What was all this about?

“I’m just curious—when did you recognize me?” Yan Yunqing stared at Dimitrius’s expression, trying to glean an answer from his face. “Surely not when you first saw me at Sigrit Academy, right?”

Dimitrius curled his lips. “Actually, it wasn’t.”

Dimitrius slowly walked up to Yan Yunqing, reaching out to touch his eyes, but Theodore slapped his wandering hand away. Dimitrius shrugged. “The Dimitrius in Sigrit Academy is mostly Dimitrius.”

It sounded convoluted, but Yan Yunqing quickly understood Kien’s meaning and his face darkened. “Soul snatch?”

Dimitrius shrugged. “This isn’t soul snatching. This body was originally my reincarnated body, only with another soul added.”

Yan Yunqing pondered.

Did this mean that Dimitrius was actually a body with two souls? Or rather… a dual personality?

But Yan Yunqing knew that he wouldn’t get an answer even if he kept asking, especially when facing someone like Kien, he was even less likely to get the truth.

Besides being a legendary necromancer, Kien was also a legendary liar. What he said was always half-truths, and you could never trust anything that came out of his mouth, because if you did, you could very well lose your life.

“So, the Eternal God Cult, is it really related to you? Did you establish the Eternal God Cult?” Yan Yunqing didn’t want to dwell on what was going on with the Dimitrius in front of him, but he was certain that he was talking to Kien, and his gaze at Dimitrius was very sharp.

“Those children—and so many sacrifices, the Eternal God Cult’s spread of… awakening and resurrecting the Eternal Lord? What exactly do you want to do?”

“I find you very strange today.” Dimitrius answered irrelevantly, pacing around Yan Yunqing and Theodore. “You seem to be constantly asking about things you’ve already guessed. Since you’ve already guessed the answer, why do you still ask me? Do you want a more definite answer from me…”

“Or are you trying to stall for time, waiting for your good companions to arrive?” Dimitrius asked curiously.

The expression on Yan Yunqing’s face didn’t change at all, but his heart still skipped a beat. His true purpose had been discovered.

He used the chat system to send out location information, clearly intending to summon reinforcements. Theodore might not be able to completely defeat the Dimitrius in front of him, but if he called a few more, and brought Divick and Bollos over, Dimitrius would definitely not be their opponent.

He could even consider capturing him alive and interrogating him.

However, he was still too obvious, and Dimitrius discovered it after only a few exchanges, even bluntly revealing Yan Yunqing’s plan.

This guy was still so perceptive.

“But I’m still happy to answer the questions of our dear Demon King.” Dimitrius showed a warm smile, but the smile didn’t feel warm at all, only cold.

“The Eternal God Cult… of course, it’s not to resurrect some Eternal Lord. After all, Your Majesty the Demon King didn’t fall, and didn’t fall into slumber, did you?”

“The Eternal God Cult’s long-term goal is of course to create a god.”

Create a god…

Sure enough, it was about what he guessed. Kien shouldn’t be lying about this.

At most, he just embellished it a bit.

Like changing from wanting to become a god himself to wanting to create a god.

“Haven’t you already seen it? That goddess of the Light Church.” As Dimitrius spoke, he suddenly realized, “Oh, I forgot. Although Your Majesty the Demon King is using the identity of that little baron, you really have nothing to do with the Light Church…”

“I was very surprised when I saw a student named Xavier Aldrich at Sigrit Academy…”

“It was clear that Mr. Aldrich had faked his death and entered the Light Church, preparing to welcome his esteemed Light Saint in the future, so how did he appear at Sigrit Academy—and even pass the entrance exam?”

“That good-for-nothing little baron?”

Dimitrius tapped his finger on his mask. “It made me wonder if something went wrong with the plan—but I didn’t expect that someone was impersonating him… and the person impersonating him was our great Demon King. Don’t you think that’s interesting? Archangel?”

Theodore’s face was cold and he didn’t say a word. Hearing Dimitrius ask this, he casually waved his hand, and several cones of light shot towards Dimitrius.

Dimitrius calmly dodged, still complaining, “That’s too impolite. We were clearly having a friendly chat, is it okay to attack without saying a word?”

Theodore remained unmoved.

“So you were watching me?” Yan Yunqing frowned. “You discovered my identity at that time?”

Dimitrius shrugged again. “Not really. It was just a small impersonation, I didn’t need to pay attention to it at all. But Your Majesty the Demon King, you are just too likable—Dimitrius likes you very much, so he pays special attention to you.”

“After I woke up and received the memories, I couldn’t help but do a little investigation. Alas, it was really unexpected to learn that you had actually gone to Bato Vita as Joker and caused a big commotion.”

Yan Yunqing: …

Even his Joker identity had been discovered?

Yan Yunqing felt a little creeped out. Anyone who discovered that a pair of eyes had been secretly watching their every move, and even all their disguises had been stripped away, would feel terrified, right?

At least Yan Yunqing now really wanted to punch Dimitrius’s handsome face hard.

This annoying guy.

“You are closely related to the Eternal God Cult, but last time I only heard people call you Young Master, not Leader. Is there someone else above you?” Yan Yunqing sneered. “What? Could it be that there is someone in this world who can suppress you? That’s really rare.”

“It seems that you really care about me?” Dimitrius was slightly complacent, but didn’t continue to answer this question, instead looking in the distance. “Oh? It seems that your reinforcements have arrived.”

Hearing this, Yan Yunqing looked in the direction Dimitrius was looking. Theodore still stood unmoving in front of Yan Yunqing.

A figure silently landed behind them, slowly walking over.

Compared to Theodore, his long hair, more platinum-colored, was scattered over his shoulders. He wore a delicate and exquisite silk robe, and also had a pair of wings on his back, but these wings were not feathered wings, but translucent, iridescent thin wings.

He walked barefoot, with a sense of detachment between his eyebrows and eyes. Compared to the pride and indifference of angels, his expression was more indifferent, like a snow lotus standing on a snow mountain, pure and elegant, a flower on a high peak.

But when his eyes met Yan Yunqing’s red eyes, spring suddenly blossomed, the snow melted, revealing a faint smile.

“King.”

Yan Yunqing was stunned, never expecting that he would appear here.

The king of the elf race, also the Demon King’s first companion and servant.

Sylph.

“Syl… Sylph?” Yan Yunqing said in disbelief, “You, didn’t you return to the Mother Tree?”

This face was indeed Sylph’s, but hadn’t Sylph returned to the Mother Tree?

Wait, could it be—successful reincarnation?

Yan Yunqing was a little confused, but Sylph had already come to his front, gave a salute, and long strands of hair fell on the back of Yan Yunqing’s hand, tickling him slightly.

“Sorry to keep you waiting, my king.”

Yan Yunqing stared at Sylph for two seconds, subconsciously opened his NPC chat panel, glanced over it, and finally stopped at one name.

Sylph (Lillian)

Yan Yunqing: …

Sylph? Lillian? How did these two get together?

Yan Yunqing’s thoughts were a little chaotic, but he still remembered that there was a formidable enemy in front of him.

Turning his head to look, Dimitrius was still smiling, but those dark brown eyes became colder when looking at Theodore and Sylph, and his warm smile was full of sinister coldness.

Like a poisoned sharp weapon, ready to seal someone’s throat with a single strike at any time.

Alarm bells rang in Yan Yunqing’s heart, and sure enough, the next second Dimitrius’s unannounced attack appeared in front of him, naturally aiming at his brow.

This seemed like a test. Yan Yunqing subconsciously blocked, but Sylph was faster, using vines to weave a shield. A dark green shield appeared in front of him out of thin air, blocking Dimitrius’s attack.

However, after blocking this attack, the shield woven from vines immediately shattered into countless pieces, weakly falling to the ground, turning into powder as a gust of wind blew past.

“It seems that your strength hasn’t fully recovered after reincarnation.” Dimitrius said with a smile. “Do you want to join this battle? That’s not a wise choice. You wouldn’t still need the Demon King’s protection, would you?”

Sylph’s gaze at Dimitrius was still indifferent, and no waves were shown in his eyes. He just moved slightly, and together with Theodore, protected Yan Yunqing behind them, only slightly behind Theodore.

“Is that so? Then let’s try it.”

As Sylph’s voice fell, an extremely gorgeous bow woven from emerald green vines appeared in his hand.

That bow was somewhat similar to Yan Yunqing’s [Emerald Shadow], but anyone could see that the bow in Sylph’s hand was more powerful. After all, it was a weapon personally refined by the Elf King.

With the bow in his hand, Sylph’s aura suddenly became sharp.

Yan Yunqing was in a daze. He always thought that elves were the strongest support, and forgot that elves are also good at bows and arrows and magic. It was just that compared to offensive skills, elves who loved nature more preferred peace, so they were better at various types of support magic.

But Sylph was different. When the Demon King was fighting, Sylph had always been by his side. According to the common knowledge of fighting, Sylph was often the one who was targeted the worst in many battles. This also allowed the peace-loving Elf King Sylph to develop skills with considerable lethality.

Although Sylph and Theodore weren’t at their peak, it seemed like there was no problem for them to fight Kien in Dimitrius’s shell to a draw?

While Yan Yunqing was thinking, the three of them had already quickly exchanged blows.

For some reason, Dimitrius put on that Eternal God Cult mask. When fighting Theodore and Sylph, his moves were ruthless, adhering to the momentum of getting hurt himself but also hitting them back, and he actually had a faintly dominant trend.

Yan Yunqing narrowed his eyes. He took out his long-unused magic wand, and secretly shot a few ‘cold arrows’ at Dimitrius.

With his current level, close combat was definitely a disadvantage, but he could still make Dimitrius a little uncomfortable from a distance.

The wings on Theodore’s back fully unfolded. When they were retracted, they didn’t feel that big, but once fully unfolded, those three wings were several meters long. An angel’s wings were one of the angel’s most powerful weapons.

The ends of each of his feathers flowed with golden light, giving the soft feathers a sharp exterior, and those feathers that should have been subject to air resistance and fell with the wind when they were falling actually turned into sharp swords, suddenly stabbing towards Dimitrius.

The long sword in Theodore’s hand also emitted a sharp humming sound, turning into a golden arc of light, also stabbing towards Dimitrius.

And Dimitrius naturally couldn’t let them attack at will. The tip of the magic wand that he didn’t know where he took out lit up, and a necromantic magic fell towards Sylph and Yan Yunqing.

Sylph raised his hand and created a shield, but it only stood in front of Yan Yunqing, while he stepped a bit, his figure instantly retreating several positions, drawing his bow and shooting.

The arrow leaving the string brought a burst of air-piercing sound, instantly approaching Dimitrius.

The sound of the air being pierced and the airflow rolled up Dimitrius’s hair. He did not hesitate at all, and quickly dodged, looking for cover.

The situation on the battlefield was unpredictable. The light magic belonging to the angel, the wood magic belonging to the elf, and the necromantic magic belonging to Kien, intersected and merged, and a large amount of magical energy overflowed, constantly colliding, causing small-scale explosions.

A cloud of dust rose, but Dimitrius had not suffered any injuries so far.

Was he really that difficult to deal with?

Yan Yunqing snorted in his heart, thinking about how to end this situation, but saw on the side’s small map that the small green dots belonging to Divick and Bollos were rushing over quickly, and the direction was exactly where they were.

Yan Yunqing’s eyes lit up. If Theodore and Sylph together weren’t enough, what about adding Divick and Bollos? They would have to die from the rotation battle, right?

Seeming to have noticed Yan Yunqing’s thoughts, Dimitrius blasted a fire explosion on Theodore and Sylph, forcing the two to retreat, while he also took a step back, lightly glanced in Yan Yunqing’s direction.

The magic originally condensing on the magic wand dissipated, and Dimitrius actually put away his weapon.

What was going on?

If something was abnormal, there must be a demon. Yan Yunqing vigilantly stared at Dimitrius’s next move, only to see him put on his mask again, and strangely made a bow-off gesture.

“Since Your Majesty the Demon King’s people are about to arrive, let’s end this temporary game here.” Dimitrius said politely. “The time is already enough, so I don’t need to continue playing with you.”

As soon as the voice fell, dark energy surged behind Dimitrius, and space was torn open, slowly forming a ‘door’, black mist lingering, exuding an ominous aura.

Dimitrius casually threw the mask in his hand into the black hole behind him, and his dark brown eyes fell on Yan Yunqing’s body. “The next time we meet may be the beginning of the official game. At that time, you and I will definitely be able to fully enjoy——a slaughter.”

“Then, see you next time.”

“Your Majesty the Demon King.”

With that, Dimitrius took a step back and fell straight into the torn-open ‘door’. Then the ‘door’ was closed, and everything returned to peace, as if Dimitrius had never been here.

If you ignored the forest that was messed up because of the battle.

The space seemed to be quiet for a few seconds. After Theodore felt that the unpleasant aura had really disappeared, he put away his weapon. Sylph did the same, only Yan Yunqing was still in shock.

He hesitated and took two steps forward, touching the position where Dimitrius had just been, touching nothing. He had indeed left.

Yan Yunqing was confused, and couldn’t figure out why Dimitrius would suddenly appear, provoke them, and then leave before Divick and Bollos were about to arrive.

Could it be that Dimitrius was afraid of Divick and Bollos? That shouldn’t be the case, right? Those two were not even comparable to the currently severely injured Theodore. If Dimitrius really wanted to fight, he could fight the four of them for a while.

So it was…

Seeming to have remembered something, Yan Yunqing’s face changed.

He reopened [Broken Bridge Remnant Snow]’s live stream, but found that [Broken Bridge Remnant Snow]’s live stream had been cut off, leaving only the water friends’ replies still refreshing.

[Oh my god, Xue Shen was caught? The ending of an undercover agent being caught is too tragic, this is simply abuse]

[Fortunately, the game can adjust the sense of pain, but the anchor should have entered the resurrection CD, right? Then what should we do? Are those children beyond saving?]

[Xue Shen exposed himself in order to protect those NPC children. He could have ignored it]

[Alas, there’s no way, it’s too tragic… Isn’t this plot a bit too abusive?]

[Why doesn’t Xue Shen post the coordinates? Anyway, he has entered the CD. Why don’t we let the brothers with high levels in the game go over and try to save a few? There are still several NPC children behind!]

Yan Yunqing’s face turned pale.

He looked at the [Find Yuri] in the task list flickering twice, gradually turning gray, indicating that the task object had died.

Yuri… and Dainy, had something happened to them?

So, Dimitrius… was he here to delay them from going to stop the sacrifice?

Yan Yunqing’s heart was very chaotic. Two figures appeared in the distance, it was Divick and Bollos who had arrived late, but Yan Yunqing ignored their arrival. He subconsciously searched.

“Fini?”

However, the clever bird that had led him before was nowhere to be seen. He didn’t know if it had been scared away by Dimitrius, or if it had sensed that the owner had encountered an accident and left.

It was clear… just a little bit away.

A message from [Ying Yi] also popped up at this time.

[Ying Yi]: Sorry, [Broken Bridge Remnant Snow]’s level is still too low, that child was caught, he couldn’t save that child.

[Ying Yi]: We have already sent people to that coordinate, no matter what, the remaining children must be rescued.

Yan Yunqing stared at that line of words, and for the first time felt that he couldn’t understand the words a bit, and the feeling of dizziness attacked again, just like when he witnessed the tragedy in the small mountain village, countless emotions surged, but after the stormy waves, what was left was boundless numbness and confusion.

Yuri…

Dainy…

Had those two children really died?

Yan Yunqing looked at the grayed-out task over and over again, unable to believe that the end would be like this.

It was as if a basin of cold water was poured over his head, drenching him completely.

Yan Yunqing didn’t really face one thing until now: This was not a game, there would be no chance to start over.

A new message popped up again——

[Ying Yi]: Are you okay?
