"That's the sensing button, you just need to place your hand on it."
Looking at the motionless Pride across from her, the Death ssenger couldn't help but speak up.
Normally, she held her chin so high she practically looked at people through her nostrils.
But this ti, she discovered that the person before her seed to hold his head even higher than she did...
How could such a person exist? Where did this utterly baseless confidence co from?
But now, even though she had already spoken first, Lu Ce still gave no response, completely unwilling to acknowledge her.
At this mont, so of the surrounding light pillars had already lit up, indicating that factions had been chosen.
No one knew which identity was better at this point, and choices basically didn't require much thought. Soon, everyone else had finished selecting.
The only ones remaining were once again Lu Ce and the Death ssenger across from him.
"What are you two doing? Are you sick?"
"I've already chosen—nothing more to say. I picked the [Devil] faction."
"Hurry up and choose so we can start!"
The Sun's impatient voice rang out once more, openly declaring his chosen faction without any attempt to conceal it.
The Death ssenger lifted her chin toward Lu Ce across from her and said:
"Could you, hurry up and make your choice?"
At this mont, everyone was watching the two in the center—the main characters of this ga—as they made their final faction selections.
Suddenly, a voice sounded from one of the light pillars.
"His brain has never been particularly sharp."
"By comparison, why don't you choose?"
This voice was quite recognizable—clearly Xie Antong's voice.
It even carried a hint of Pleasure's temperant to enhance its distinctiveness.
Her words were directed at the Death ssenger, though in truth, she hadn't originally intended to speak, nor was there any need for her to do so.
She had only one purpose in saying this: to let Lu Ce know that she had arrived.
She had originally planned to see what Lu Ce chose before making her own selection, but given the current situation, it seed Pride might have already imrsed himself in his role, so forget it...
The Death ssenger's gaze turned toward Xie Antong's direction, apparently sensing the flavor of [Pleasure] in that voice.
Her expression showed slight surprise before she smiled and said:
"Of course I need to choose last."
"After all, what I'm here for—I presu everyone knows."
"I'm here to collect people for [Death], so naturally I can't be in the sa faction as him."
"I need to choose a faction opposite to his."
Hearing the Death ssenger's words, the Sun's impatient voice erged once again.
"Tch, all this useless talk. Didn't they already say we can switch factions freely? Annoying to co here and babble nonsense."
Death ssenger:......
Although they had only interacted for a few minutes, she already had a rough idea of what kind of person this was and didn't plan to engage with him further.
"You..."
Just as she was about to continue speaking, Lu Ce finally spoke up, cutting her off:
"You choose."
"What?" The Death ssenger didn't process it imdiately.
"I said, you choose the factions. Whether it's mine or yours."
"Just pick a distribution that satisfies you, that you think can win."
Pride's calm voice echoed through the venue, making the entire space seem exceptionally quiet.
"What do you an?"
"Literal aning. I don't care, and I'm sowhat tired of this."
As he spoke, the golden mask revealed a clearly disappointed expression, looking at the Death ssenger across from him as if viewing her through his nostrils.
"I can sense it—deception, ga-playing, concealnt—it's all already begun at this stage."
"What factions, what faction switching, what choices—you people are still playing these scheming gas even now."
"But the strong don't care about such things. That you would challenge like this truly saddens . Is this what the ga ant by 'having so fun' with ?"
How did it beco challenging you!?
Hearing the voice in her ears, the Death ssenger's expression began to crack.
What?
Is this person dreaming? Or reciting lines on a theater stage?
She looked incredulously at the person before her, as if it had been too long since she'd heard anyone speak to her like this.
Pride continued:
"Is the thinking of the strong so difficult to understand when laid bare before you?"
"Hurry up, no need for concealnt."
"Choose a faction arrangent you think works, then place on the opposite side. You could even gather all these scattered pieces onto your side if you prefer."
As Pride spoke, he raised the Extre Path Battle Axe in his hand and swept it in a circle encompassing everyone in the room.
"You don't even need to tell the rules, or any thods you consider aningful. Just... hurry up and start!"
Death ssenger:......
Everyone:......
Spectators:......
After these words were spoken, not just the Death ssenger—the entire world fell silent.
No sound ca from the sixteen light pillars; even the Sun didn't continue speaking.
Xie Antong's mouth twitched involuntarily.
Pride, imrsing himself in the role this quickly?
Is this to rapidly enter that state by imdiately cranking up the intensity? It's just a bit...
[: What grade of ntal patient is this? Can soone explain?]
[: I thought the ga was going to ramp up the pressure on "Sin," but is "Sin" still doing the pressuring?]
[: No way, I wouldn't dare say those things even if I thought them! What is this!?]
In the silent space, the Death ssenger's lips trembled as she wanted to say sothing, but ultimately remained silent with an ugly expression.
She simply felt that any words would be so pale and non-confrontational—only results could speak now.
With a wave of her hand, a golden light appeared above Lu Ce's head, displaying [Saint].
Above her own head appeared the characters [Devil King].
"There are two conditions for ga conclusion: one is the complete destruction of all eight cities, the other is the Saints eliminating all demon beacons in the cities."
"When either condition occurs, the relevant faction wins."
"As for how to destroy, how to eliminate beacons, how to switch factions... please explore these during the ga yourselves."
After speaking, she looked up with an ugly expression. Just then, the Sun's voice suddenly rang out.
"Isn't there a bit of a problem?"
"What if you two don't die?"
