I, holding a long sword in my hand, only know one move

Facing her questioning, Gresta sighed helplessly and said: "You are a child chosen by the world. You have the two potentials of becoming a devil and an angel. Either one will gain eternal life, but with this At the same time, you will become a [god] or a [demon]."

"After I...die?"

"Yes."

"The divine spell that came to you when you were eighteen was chopped into pieces, and the actions on the other side of hell were discovered by heaven, so when you are on the verge of death again, you will have a chance to choose." Gresta Pointing to her witch's eyes that were covered by her hair, "A chance to choose to become a devil or an angel..."

"Is there any difference between the two?"

"All I can say is, don't use human's shallow knowledge to speculate about gods and demons. They are not good or evil. They are just bound by their responsibilities to govern their own existence in the world. However, there is an essential difference between demons and angels."

"Although they are all [gods and demons], they are free from the shackles of cause and effect and time, and control time and cause and effect. But -"

"but...?"

"When you become an angel, you lose your feelings. God loves the world without any selfish desires. In other words, no matter how much you love him during your lifetime, after that, you will cease to exist like the ashes scattered in the wind. The evil consequences on Cheng Rang's body are lingering, If you lose control, you will be judged, and at that time, he will be your enemy."

"He will not lose his memory of you. If he still loves you, he will be the most painful one when he sees you again, because he still has [feelings] for you but you have no thoughts about him. , whose only duty is to [put him on trial].”

When Isabella heard this, she felt a chill down her spine even while sitting in the hot water.

"What about the other one?" she asked slowly.

"The other is to become a demon. Since demons are in charge of sin, they will have corresponding emotions. This is why only demons have the selfish intention of leading you into hell in advance."

"Does that mean I can still remember him and love him?"

"Of course, but the price of becoming a demon and having feelings is to cut off all causal connections with the world and live only to collect sins. In other words... you can still love him, but he no longer remembers you. Even when you meet again, he will never be able to remember who you are or that he once loved you."

"At that time, you will be the one who suffers the most because of your responsibilities. You will collect the crimes he committed. Of course, the process will definitely be rough. You may not be able to do it, but he may not. "

"Because he doesn't know you, you will be his enemy. You still have feelings for him and have to take action, but he will only think that you want to kill him and show you his weapon... when the time comes ——Anyway, no matter what the outcome is, it will be cruel.”

Cheng Rang becomes Isabella's enemy, or Isabella becomes Cheng Rang's enemy.

As long as Cheng Rang does not completely become a [God], then he will not be able to completely kill Isabella. Through the reincarnation of heaven and hell, Cheng Rang, who is still bound by time, will keep meeting Isabella.

One party loses their feelings for the other party... and falls into a long-term fight. Although it is very unsatisfactory, it is undoubtedly a way to always be by the other party's side.

Beyond cause and effect, beyond time...

Looking at Isabella who was in shock and unable to speak for a long time, Gresta couldn't help but wonder if it was too cruel to tell her such a thing so early.

But there is no way, this is what Isabella begged her to say.

"Then I've told you the method. It's not my thing to worry about which one to choose. It's up to you. But you still have a few decades before you have to choose. It's already long enough for human beings. Slow down. Just think about it slowly, or don’t think about it.”

Gresta pushed herself up from the barrel, stepped out, picked up the bath towel placed on the chair and wrapped her body up.

"You can come out after another half hour of soaking. I'll give you some time to calm down. I'll wait for you outside."

"..."

As the bathroom door was closed, Isabella was the only one left in the bathhouse filled with warm mist. Until just now, the echo caused by the closing of the door still echoed here.

Finally, everything returned to silence.

A few minutes later, Gresta, who had changed into her witch robe and tidied herself up, came to the door of the bathhouse, leaned against the wall and waited quietly.

And for half an hour after that, the girl's confused and helpless sobs echoed on the other side of the door without stopping.

Isabella is a strong child, but this does not mean that she can accept such a cruel fact.

The choice is unsatisfactory in either case. The children chosen by the world have extremely intelligent talents. Even after death, they do not go through reincarnation like ordinary people, but become gods.

But the matter of becoming a god...

"For her, it's not an unreasonable [curse]..."

Half an hour later, Gresta gently knocked on the door, and the inaudible crying stopped suddenly.

"The time is up, let's go buy some things, and then go back to the Witch's House..." Gresta paused for a moment, then said: "Don't you want a flying medium? Come out quickly and take you to buy it."

Really, yes

When can I change my soft-hearted nature?

Gresta smiled helplessly, then turned and walked out of the lobby.

But there's nothing you can do about it, right? Who made you the teacher with a "bad personality" in her mouth~

Standing on the street, Gresta looked back at the girl who was slowly walking down the steps from the bathhouse lobby. The effect of using the highest-grade bath liquid to enhance her physique was very obvious. Apart from the still sad expression on her face, her whole body became much more refined. Only the hair that was not completely dried was still stuck to the back with some moisture.

"Why did you come out without drying your hair? What should I do if I catch a cold?"

"Huh... I thought there wasn't anything like a hair dryer here..."

"Ah, I forgot to tell you, it's the metal ring with a handle hanging next to the mirror."

For a girl who didn't know anything like a "hair dryer" in the other world, Gresta snickered and took out her wand and waved it gently, taking away the moisture from the girl's hair and condensing it into small water droplets that evaporated in the air.

The dazzling golden hair is now dry, smooth and voluminous.

"Well, this is much more beautiful." Gresta nodded with a smile, very satisfied with her results, "Next time, remember to solve it yourself."

"Thanks..."

"You're welcome, let's go~"

"Um."

...

Entering the bustling commercial street in the city, the girl's attention was gradually attracted by the scene that was completely different from that on the earth, and it seemed that she had temporarily put aside the things that were worrying her.

"Medium-quality magic crystal can be used to activate the teleportation array. It supports a consumption of 300 Duva and only costs 100 gold coins!"

"Promotion, TV, electric baking pan, light bulb~"

"Huh? Teacher, there are electrical appliances here too!" Isabella pointed to a booth selling electrical appliances in surprise. According to the meaning of the Esperanto vocabulary, it was unexpectedly the same as the one on Earth, but the appearance was different.

The most obvious thing is that those electrical appliances do not have such things as wires and plugs...

"Of course there is. Magic and science have developed very rapidly in the past few hundred years. The magisters' ideas for researching things are much broader than those on earth."

"Hey~ That's it... Then how do you use these electrical appliances?"

Gresta smiled and pointed to the magic crystal shop nearby: "Did you see those sparkling stones? Those are magic crystals. They are mined from mines that contain natural magic power. Among them, those with thunder properties The magic crystal can act as a power source, and as long as it is placed on the base of a specific magic circle engraved with it, it can wirelessly supply power to the electrical appliances in the entire room."

Dewar is the power unit here. One Dewar can support a family of three for about three days. A medium-quality magic crystal of one hundred gold coins is enough for them to use it for three years. The price is actually quite affordable.

Moving forward, the strong aroma of barbecue wafting from the roadside shops made people passing by look askance, and some stopped to have a taste.

"Extra large fish skewers, don't forget to bring some for Paopao when you come back, isn't she yelling for some?"

"Um."

"Of course, if we find her sleeping when we go back, then we can divide her share~ Let's go this way."

Isabella struggled to pull her eyes away from the grilled fish that exuded the sizzling aroma of oil, and followed Gresta's footsteps.

The two then came to a three-story exquisite store. Judging from the words written on the sign, this was the store that sold what Isabella had been looking forward to - the flying magic medium.

Chapter 42 Jianghu comes to the rescue? Find Boss Cheng!

Buzz-buzz-

The mobile phone that was vibrating on the table moved slowly and was held down by a hand.

Cheng Rang looked away from the book in front of him and looked at the screen aside. When he saw the name on the caller ID clearly, he picked up the phone.

"Shujiang, do you mind taking a call?"

The huge book in front of me flipped and flipped as if it was alive, then closed with a bang and became silent.

The moment Cheng Rang pressed the answer button, Xiaobai's representative voice rang anxiously——

"It's too late, it's too late...Cheng! Lend me some money!"

"ha?"

Even when borrowing money from acquaintances, she uses a somewhat coquettish commanding tone. She deserves to be called the famous Miss Mary Macbeth.

"I have to know the reason, right? You asked to borrow money as soon as you came up...how much does it cost?"

"Five thousand zer."

"It's not a small amount..." Cheng Rang raised his brows, his tone hesitant, but the corners of his mouth were raised unconsciously.

Five thousand zers is about ten thousand US dollars. It is very difficult for ordinary family members to come up with so much money at once. However, compared to Cheng Rang, who holds almost a quarter of HL's underground economic lifeline, it is only a small amount. It's just a small change in the bank card.

"Jiang...Jianghu help me. I'll definitely pay you back later. Are you still worried that I'll run away?"

Cheng Rang laughed and said, "Of course not. Anyone in Helsalem Zlotli could get away with the money, but you and I are very relieved."

It is impossible for the girl who is the heart of the Great Barrier to leave the city of HL. Cheng Rang said this because he just wanted to relax himself in the heavy study tasks.

"I understand, give me the account number and transfer it immediately."

"Eh? You

Don’t ask why…”

"People who are in a hurry to borrow money will always have something to hide. If you don't want to take the initiative to tell me, wouldn't it be a little unkind of me to ask for the details?"

"Cheng, you are such a good person~!"

"Stop, stop, stop... Forget about the good guy card or anything, it sounds weird." Cheng Rang touched his nose and smiled bitterly.

Xiaobai on the other end of the phone hesitated for a while, and then took the initiative to explain: "Actually, it's what I told you last time..."

Cheng Rang recalled for a moment.

"Is it a surprise for Leo?"

Speaking of this, Xiaobai suddenly poured bitter water on him like a river bank that opened.

"Yes, I'm telling you! I've obviously saved enough money, but I found out that the insurance is more expensive than the car itself! And if you don't pay for it, it's not enough. They are simply robbing!"

"Insurance....?"

"You must not tell that chicken coop head in advance..." Xiaobai first asked, and after getting Cheng Rang's affirmative answer, he quietly lowered his voice and said, "I bought him a brand new motorcycle. How’s the car~?”

"Hey, that's good!"

Although with the more convenient optional door system, Leo rarely rides a bicycle. His little pedal is as if it is about to fall apart every time it swings, which does not give people a sense of security at all.

However, after getting a new car, whether it is taking his girlfriend for a ride or hobbies, it suits his taste.

"But - but!" Xiaobai's voice immediately became dissatisfied, "They asked me if I wanted insurance after they had already paid!"

Cheng Rang nodded and said: "Well...after all, although insurance is considered a financial product in the outside world, it is a necessary thing in HL and cannot be lacking."

"So, I didn't understand it well before. As soon as I saved enough money to buy a car, I couldn't wait to come here, so..."

"Where's the insurance?"

"Full accident coverage, both for the driver and the car itself."

"The highest standard..." Cheng Rang understood.

The highest standard of comprehensive accident insurance covers three pages of accidents. After the vehicle is damaged, it can be replaced an unlimited number of times in the shortest time. The medical insurance reimbursement rate for the driver's injury is also over 75%. After being stolen, a professional company will provide compensation.

That's why the price is so expensive, even higher than the purchase price of the motorcycle itself.

There is nothing we can do about it... If such a useful insurance is sold cheaply, wouldn't the insurance company lose so much money that it can't even lift its pants?

If you think about it clearly, this is Helsalemz Lot!

"Does that mean you are selling cars now?" Cheng Rang asked.

"Well, I'm negotiating with the insurance sellers... It would be nice if it could be cheaper."

"Leave it to me and give him the phone."

In the car park, Xiaobai took the phone away from his ear doubtfully and looked at the alien who was rubbing his hands with a standard smile. His suit was stretched tight by his bloated body, as if the buttons would snap at the next moment. Bengduan flew out.

"The phone number is for you." Xiaobai handed the phone to the insurance salesman.

The man answered the phone respectfully, and while he was happy that he could negotiate another business deal and earn money, the questioning voice from the other side of the phone made his expression stiff.

"Are you selling insurance? Which company are you from?"

"Uh, sir... we are the insurance sales branch of Obsidian Security Company. May I ask -"
