My destiny is to go to work in a world that is collapsing

"Where should we go next?"

Leaving the stall and continuing to walk on the street with the ferryman, Xia asked in a low voice.

She learned the information about Master Fu and the Lord of the Nightless Sky from the stall owner. Even if these market rumors cannot be believed, Xia also Understand, the most special people in the Nightless Sky and the most likely to possess the curse seal are probably these two people.

"If we simply consider the difficulty, it may be easier to contact the good-hearted Fu Master first than the Lord of the Nightless Sky."

Xia put forward her own suggestion.

Even if she already knew that the ferryman's name was Hua Yi, she was still used to calling him the ferryman.

In fact, it was not just a habit. So far, many people use the name Hua Yi as a title. Including Teresa, Hitamaru, Sixth Night and others, but the only one who uses the title of ferryman is herself.

This makes Kasumi feel a little lucky

"It is already night. Although the shops and stalls in the Evernight Sky are open until very late, which is worthy of the name of the Evernight Sky, places like medical clinics should not be open 24 hours a day."

"……"

From what the ferryman said, it seemed that he planned to visit the Lord of the Nightless Sky first.

That's right, even if the Fu master is powerful, he shouldn't be treating people non-stop.

But if the medical center is closed, will the place where the Lord of the Nightless Sky is located be open?

The stall owner just went to the medical clinic and met Master Fu, but he didn't even know the name of the Lord of the Evernight Sky, which already showed his mystery.

If we visit according to the normal method, I don't think we will be able to see each other at all.

So—— it was indeed a sneak attack.

Because I couldn't contact the Lord of the Nightless Sky through normal channels, I chose to sneak in. Because I could go to the medical center in a more ordinary way, I chose to visit at an appropriate time later.

Xia Xia knew it was still early. Although it was time for ordinary people to go home and rest, for the bodyguards and guards responsible for guarding, it was not yet a state of mental exhaustion.

She stopped asking and continued wandering around in the night with the ferryman.

The more I learned about it, the more I realized that what the stall owner said was true. It used to be a dark street, but now it almost doesn’t look like a dark street at all. Even though there are people coming and going and there are many vendors, there is still no conflict. The ground was still spotless.

Lively but not noisy, prosperous but not complicated, everything seems orderly

"Ferryman, do you know what curse seal the Lord of the Nightless Sky has? The various performances of this Evernight Sky have surpassed the new city managed by City Lord Yunchen. If the Lord of Evernight Sky is stronger than City Lord Yunchen, it may be a wrong choice for us to directly sneak into his residence."

If it had been Xia in the beginning, she would never have considered it as seriously as she does now.

She would have just been a machine that immersed herself in performing tasks, regardless of the reason or cost. She would not be afraid even in the face of a life crisis.

Because Xia didn't have any How much of a real feeling of being alive.

However, in getting along with the ferryman, Kasumi has gradually lost the qualities that a ninja should have, and has even become accustomed to it, and does not want to be harsh on herself.

"[Human World] Curse Seal, which has the effect of controlling others with words"

"？！！"

The ferryman's words made Xia's eyes widen in shock.

"There is such a terrible curse mark……"

"The even more terrifying curse seal is the [Heavenly Way] possessed by Kallen, which can make people immortal for five hundred years... Although this is more of a setting, I have confirmed that the curse seal does have the effect of increasing vitality. , which is of great reference value."

It took Xia some time to realize who the Kallen mentioned by the ferryman was.

That was the name of City Lord Yunchen.

"As for the [human world] curse seal, to be precise, it should have the effect of influencing other people with words. This ability is not an exaggeration. I know a way to directly control her with Honkai, which is the power of [erosion] and [domination]."

Kasumi is aware of the existence of Honkai Energy.

In fact, her ability to control lightning and make the sword burst out with lightning is exactly a method of using Honkai Energy.

However, [Corrosion] and [Domination] are two This is the first time I have heard the vocabulary.

If we infer from the ferryman's words, could this correspond to two powers more powerful than the curse seal?

"Do we have any means of defense against the [human world] curse seal? It would be terrible if you met the Lord of the Nightless Sky and was instantly controlled by him"

"As long as the mind is strong enough and at its peak, it will not be affected by the [human world] curse seal. Don't worry, if you are really controlled, I will help you"

"……"

The subtext of the ferryman seems to be that he will not be affected by the [human world] curse seal, but instead believes that he may be controlled.

A little bit annoying

"So, when to act?"

"Now. Take advantage of the time before it reaches the middle of the night, otherwise it will be bad if it disturbs others' rest."

Xia was no longer able to complain about the ferryman's excessive politeness in an inexplicable place. She took a deep breath to adjust her state, and went to the depths of the night sky with the ferryman. Compared with other surrounding buildings, a building seemed taller and taller. A luxurious wooden structure mansion.

Judging from its architectural style, the Lord of the Nightless Sky may be from the Far East.

However, considering that Mei Raiden, who seemed young and harmless before, was hiding a big secret , not only possesses two curse seals, but can also escape from being wanted by the city lord's mansion many times. Xia believes that one cannot make too many judgments based on external signs alone.

Condensing her thoughts, Xia secretly holds the sword tightly.

The so-called sneaking, That is to enter secretly without being discovered.

Xia didn't think that her concealment ability was perfect. Otherwise, when she was investigating the special location, she wouldn't have had to pretend to be a couple with the ferryman to deceive the city lord Yunchen. He hid on the spot for a while.

If he was discovered while sneaking into the mansion where the Lord of Evernight City was located, he would have to knock the person unconscious to achieve a perfect sneak before seeing the Lord of Evernight City..

As for after meeting the other party - if the Lord of the Nightless Sky is really the owner of the [Human World] curse seal, it should be impossible to take away the curse seal without disturbing the other party. As long as there is no By alerting a snake, you can catch it unprepared and increase your success rate.
