Shepherd Tantra

Chapter 973 Let Everyone See It
The Fallen Angel's attitude towards Aiwass shocked everyone present.

Even though it was filled with malice and hatred, what was hidden in that attitude was extremely real.

——The high and mighty Fallen Angel actually regarded Aiwass as a being who could communicate with him on an equal footing!

The few people who had entered the ruins of the Tower of Babel with Aiwass before immediately recalled the conversation between Aiwass and the Fallen Angels at that time:

[——I am not a snake. Snakes and I are sworn enemies, and Lucifer has approved of my revenge! I am the key that the snake uses to open the door, and now I will betray my mission...]

[——What’s the difference between a snake and its tail! ]

The Fallen Angel responded like this at the time.

Could it be...

Saint John, who knew the secrets of the gods, realized the truth even faster.

——The only “snake” who can communicate with the Fallen Angel on an equal footing and even be hated by him… apart from the Snake Father, I’m afraid the only one who can do this is the Snake Father’s son.

That is Huan Tiansi, who is called "Ouroboros"!
"Is Lord Aiwass part of... the Huantian Division?"

St. John murmured.

She had originally guessed this truth. Aiwass's power was increasing too fast... not only was his ability level increasing fast, but he even mastered extraordinary skills very quickly. That speed was more like "remembering" than "learning"... but at that time, she guessed that it was Die Tiansi or Die Tiansi's offspring.

Because the Butterfly God has the skill of "shedding skin", he often leaves only his power and body, and transforms his soul into a mortal. After an ordinary life, he returns to the dream world again... This is what Zhuang Zhou's dream of a butterfly is like. This fits the concept of "remembering".

But now it seems that it is Huan Tiansi...

In a sense, "eating the tail" and "shedding the skin" are similar.

But the difference is...

"The Ouroboros's tail..."

Saint John's expression became serious: "But you will be devoured by the Ouroboros."

Snakes and their tails are mortal enemies.

"According to the records in the Holy Scriptures... although I don't know why, Huan Tiansi has the habit of cutting off a part of his soul and placing it in the material world. After it matures and becomes strong, he will kill it and devour it."

Saint John whispered to the others, "Huan Tiansi has repeated this cycle many times. That clone is called 'Snake Tail'."

"……snort."

The corners of Fallen Angel's mouth slightly raised, and he let out an inexplicable sneer.

Of course he knew why—but he didn't want to tell these people.

Those who have not been betrayed yet do not deserve the "solution to the puzzle" that he obtained after paying a price.

He paid the price for his naivety, endured the pain, and experienced the despair of betrayal.

Now these people have paid nothing and are so naive – how could they have received this knowledge?

"Remember? You told me the story of 'The Brave Man'."

The Fallen Angel turned his head and looked at Aiwass, his voice calm: "Faced with a world that is about to be destroyed, the hero takes up the holy sword to challenge the Demon King... It's a great story, even my heart is moved."

Aiwass frowned slightly.

Of course he has no relevant memories because he is not Huan Tiansi.

Aiwass looked down at the people on the ground and shook his head slightly, signaling not to start the boss fight yet - the Fallen Angel seemed to have something to say, and maybe he could get some key information.

After all, he really has no memory of Huan Tiansi's past.

And Huan Tiansi... will eventually become his greatest enemy.

"Every time the sun rises and sets, you tell a new story. The new story follows the old one. I once thought that it was something that really happened, and even wanted to travel around the world to find the 'brave man'."

Is this some kind of Thousand and One Nights? Huan Tian Si is still updating daily...

Aiwass complained in his heart.

"But what I care about most is what happened after the hero saved the world. People always don't know that this person is the hero who saved the world, and they speak nonsense in front of the powerful hero; or even though they know that the hero defeated the devil, they have no idea what kind of desperate situation the world was facing.

"People forget history. Because they have never seen despair."

The methodical and deep voice of the Fallen Angel still echoed in the sky word by word: "You said, Snake Tail - is there any meaning in saving someone without anyone knowing about it?"

Aiwass was silent for a moment.

Seeing that the Fallen Angel still had no intention of launching an attack, he realized that he was not just asking himself questions, but was actually asking himself questions.

"...Of course."

Aiwass replied: "Meaning is not given by others, but obtained from within oneself."

"……Ah."

The corners of the Fallen Angel's mouth slightly raised: "Do you know how the snake answered?"

——Don’t you know that I’m not a snake?

You call me snake one moment, snake tail the next. You are quite flexible...

Aiwass complained inwardly.

But this time it wasn't a question. The Fallen Angel gave a direct answer: "He said, 'Saving the world must be a secret, and it must never be known to the public.'"

"……Why?"

Cardinal Galatea was not afraid at all and asked directly.

The Fallen Angel lowered his head slightly and looked at Cardinal Galatea, and replied: "Because if someone witnesses a miracle, then they are creating a god. But there is no god in this world. No one can solve all problems and relieve all suffering. Therefore, the work of creating a god is doomed to fail and will only lead to despair.

"When people are faced with difficulties, they will ask God for help. But just because a hero can defeat the devil doesn't mean he can make everyone happy. The weight of prayers will eventually overwhelm all the goodness of human nature, and unfulfilled wishes will turn into resentment. Even a hero will degenerate into a devil in malice.

"The snake said - never let anyone know what you are capable of."

The words of the Fallen Angel were unexpectedly wise, calm, and profound.

That didn't look at all like the Fallen Angel that he had seen in the cracks between the worlds before, nor did it look like the one that had just wiped out the Fly Demon.

However, at this moment, the smile on Fallen Angel's mouth suddenly spread.

"——Since he said so, I will do the opposite."

Without disguising his strong malice, the Fallen Angel laughed and said, "Show off everything you have in front of the people! My hero...

"Let people know how powerful you are!"

The Fallen Angel did nothing, his power did not overflow.

However, in the next moment, the sky turned into a mirror, and the picture appeared in it.

The entire sky above the planet turned into a huge "silent screen"!
Their confrontation at this moment was recorded by the nightmares under the fallen angels and projected into the sky!
Everyone who is in Xingti can see all this just by looking up.

Even the sky around the Star Antimony was transformed into a screen during the projection of the ceremony!
Yulia's eyes suddenly widened.

——Is the whole world watching here at this moment? !

To her, Avalon, Iris, and Star Antimony were the whole world.

The strong sense of uneasiness and tension made her heart beat rapidly.

"…Is this the ritual you prepared earlier?"

Looking at all this, Aiwass smiled instead.

He raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "Why, are you ready to lose the battle?"

In fact, what Aiwass was really afraid of was that the Fallen Angels would directly attack Yulia.

But the Fallen Angels were unwilling to do such a thing, because his purpose was not to make Aiwass uncomfortable, but to target the Ring Angels.

Or in other words, the enemy that the Fallen Angels face is always the "snake". And Aiwass, as the "tail of the snake", is just the sweet condiment in his feast of revenge. Compared to Aiwass himself, what he represents is more worthy of the Fallen Angels' humiliation.

and so……

Thinking of this, Aiwas' heart moved slightly and he suddenly stopped talking.

"I got it?"

The Fallen Angel grinned, "It's too late."

Without seeing him stretch out his hand to make a gesture forward, Aiwas was suddenly grabbed in the air and floated up.

The next moment, a colorful mark of sin suddenly appeared on Aiwass's body.

The colorful six-fold ring that spread out with Aiwass as the center locked him in the middle. The ring looked like the ring that bound the hair behind the Fallen Angel, only it was magnified many times.

"——Do it!"

Ligeia was the first to react.

Even though they had just gone through two battles and hadn't had time to recover from their injuries, physical strength, and mana... they couldn't just watch the Fallen Angels attack Aiwass!
It just so happens that the Fallen Angels seem to be casting some spell, and this is the best time for them to take action!

However, the Fallen Angels completely ignored them and didn't even look at them.

"Pride, envy, lust, wrath, greed, laziness..."

The Fallen Angel extended his sharp right claw "index finger" and pointed at one by one, counting the great sins that Aiwass was carrying. Every time he read out a name, he lightly tapped, and one of the halos correspondingly enlarged, responding to the Fallen Angel's "roll call" with joy.

"——Oh, which one should I choose? It's so hard to decide."

Aiwass clearly felt a familiar tearing sensation coming from his body - as the Sin Mark was activated, his flesh and blood were stirring and changing. Strong negative emotions kept surging in his heart, but they were like rootless duckweed, unable to perfectly integrate with the current Aiwass... Therefore, although his flesh and blood under the skin bulged high, it could never break through the skin and get out.

But that's only "temporary".

The Sin Mark was constantly receiving power from the Fallen Angels, just like turning on the tap of a swimming pool. Although it was empty at the moment, and the higher the water level, the higher the water pressure... but the water would still overflow in the end.

However, Aiwass was not too panicked.

He can just attract the attention of the Fallen Angels at this moment, allowing his teammates to take the opportunity to attack!

Although letting the healer act as a tank to attract fire may sound like a mistake...but as long as the healer is not dead, it is not a mistake!
The flames of the Flame-Rebellious Butterfly shone directly on the Fallen Angel, but he did not try to dodge. However, the place where the black bone armor was burned suddenly lit up with a faint blue flame. The Great Guardian was the first to rush over, riding a griffin and surrounded by a storm, and slashed the Fallen Angel heavily with the double swords blessed by Saint John!

Only the crisp sound of a knife flicking could be heard, but the Fallen Angel still did not react at all.

He just waved his hand casually, as if to shoo away a fly. The invisible energy that gathered instantly knocked the Great Guardian to the ground.

And a lightless shield instantly condensed under him, completely absorbing the petrifying light of the insect amber!
