Family heirloom, then turned into a demon girl

Chapter 329 Mission: 07-3 Kinslayer

"--It's now!"

What does "now" mean?
Nero felt a bad premonition in her heart. Her eyes moved away from the man and drifted towards the direction he was facing. There, Jiuyuan Feiniao actually gave up fighting against Nero's flute, stood up from Dean with difficulty, and ordered in a loud voice:
"Nod people—"

Nero, who was well-versed in religious texts, had a flash of lightning in her mind - she knew what the man's real name was!

At the same time, her instinct told her that she had to stop Fei Niao, but no one had the free hand now.

So Jiuyuan Asuka successfully issued her last order.

She said: "--Accept your judgment here!"

Then, a gleaming game file fell from the sky. In that instant, the flute music faded, and the cold wind died. The sickle "Samael" involuntarily awoke from Nero's body, emerging into her hand. The powerful "host authority" drew Nero and Pest into a brand new game, irresistibly.

In shock, Nero called out the real name of the man in black:

"Cain?!"

-

That was who knows how many thousands of years ago.

A man carefully buried the blood-stained stone in the soil, returned to his cultivated fields, and offered the harvested grain on the altar.

Before the man bowed his head in worship, a voice came from the altar.

"Where is your brother Abel?"

Hearing this question, the man shrank his neck slightly, then bravely raised his head: "How should I know? It's not my job to look after him."

However, the voice from the altar ruthlessly exposed his lie: "I know what you have done, because your brother's blood cries out to me in the dust."

The voice's owner had hoped the man would reveal and confess his sins, but the man's lies disappointed him. So, he cursed him with his words: "Cursed are you from the ground, whose mouths have received your brother's blood. You will no longer yield its harvest when you till it, and you will be a wanderer on the earth."

Yet, even then, the man refused to repent. He pleaded with Him, declaring, "My punishment is too great, more than I can bear. You have now driven me out of this land, and I shall not see your face again. I shall be a wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me." Seeing his stubbornness, the owner of the voice placed a mark on his body.

He told the man, "It will never be so. Whoever kills Cain will be punished sevenfold."

But this was not a guarantee, but a further punishment. A man with this mark would become a thorn in the side of the god of death. Because of the "sevenfold revenge", no god of death would be willing to take his soul, and he would lose the right to eternal sleep.

Unable to find peace in heaven, nor to atone for sins in hell, men became eternal wanderers on earth, “Nodites” who had lost their homeland and their homeland.

The sin the man committed was called "envy." He envied Abel's offering, but never considered that his own intentions were not right when he offered it. He killed Abel for this, but never considered that even then he would not receive what belonged to Abel.

His name was "Cain (get)", and because he could not get it, he committed a crime and became the first murderer in the world.

And after a thousand years of wandering, he finally got a chance to end it all.

The mark "He" had inscribed upon Cain was a game of grace. A most primitive game of grace, a "trial." At this moment, just as he had anticipated, under the gift of the bird's "divine words," the organizer's authority was forcibly activated, forcibly dragging the "game leaders" possessing the spirit of the God of Death into the game.

At the moment when Nero's flute music was interrupted because he was forcibly pulled into the game, Jiuyuan Feiniao, who was struggling to resist being controlled by Nero, finally lost consciousness and fell to the ground. The people who had been controlled by Nero before that stood there in a daze because they had lost their controller.

On the other side, Izayoi and Weser were still chasing each other, jumping back and forth between buildings.

Cain stood still, opened his arms, and excitedly shouted to the two "Death Gods," "Come, Death! Judge my sins!"

When Pest came back to her senses, her expression was solemn and her hands raised up involuntarily.

She gritted her teeth and said viciously, "Damn it! This guy is setting a trap for us!"

This gift game Cain was burdened with could only end with victory for the contestant—him. If he couldn't win, then it would never end.

This was his punishment, but now it became a shackle for Nero and Pest.

Because in order to end the game and escape from it, they must give Cain the "gift of death."

That is, killing Cain.

Nero also grasped the sickle representing the identity of "Angel of Death Samael" with trembling hands, his teeth chattering.

After the game began, she clearly sensed the strong aura of original sin emanating from Cain. It was jealousy; he was probably envious of all creatures capable of death. Just as he had been at the altar a thousand years before, even after thousands of years of exile, this sinner's nature remained evil, unrepentant.

It is precisely because of this that he cannot obtain "death" so much that he has to set up this trap to seek death instead of continuing to travel to atone for his sins.

"Then if we kill him..."

"Whoever kills Cain will be punished sevenfold," even by the God of Death. When "He" designed this gift game, he likely never intended to end Cain's life, let alone when he remained unrepentant. To act would be to defy "He"'s will and be punished.

"more than!"

Pest growled in a low voice.

"This guy carries around achievements that don't belong to him!"

Pest could feel it because those achievements belonged to the Rat Catcher, the other half of Hamel.

In other words, according to the rules of the game of "showing achievements to offset the curse of blood", this guy is actually cheating.

"what happened?"

Cain laughed exaggeratedly, his pale face twisted like a ghost: "Hurry up, let's finish our game!"
