Slayer of Gods: I lied; I became the agent of the Nine Gods.

Ten days passed in Lu Yu and Lin Qiye's non-stop training.

For the past ten days, Lu Yu has come to the Primordial Wilderness every night to improve and learn various skills.

The deity who came to teach Lu Yu how to manipulate power on the first day was her natal goddess, Nuwa.

However, after the class, Lu Yu could no longer blush and feel her heart race whenever she saw Nuwa.

Although the empress is beautiful, it's true that the snake's tail really hurts when it whips someone.

The phantom pain in my body hadn't disappeared when the next day's class began, this time with Fuxi instead.

Fuxi truly deserves to be called Nuwa's good older brother (husband), sharing the same excellent virtue of loving to slap people.

It was just a pity for Lu Yu, who was whipped, as his old wounds hadn't healed before he was hit with new ones.

Not only that, she also had to learn divination from Fuxi afterwards.

Lu Yu, a materialist in the first half of her life, never believed in divination. Now that she has come to the mythological world, although she believes in divination, it doesn't mean she can tell fortunes herself!

Fuxi could also see that she knew almost nothing about this. Although he was mentally prepared, he was not too disappointed, but he was still a little disappointed that she was not a suitable candidate to inherit his mantle.

Because Lu Yu was learning the basic divination symbols, it took him three nights to barely graduate.

However, this still made Lu Yu feel that Fu Xi, who had obsessive-compulsive disorder, was not very satisfied. He even secretly wanted to open a tutoring class for Lu Yu, but Lu Yu righteously refused.

Next, Lu Yu learned some formations from Yuanshi Tianzun that were not very strong but were simple and easy to learn. In particular, some of these formations did not require many materials and could be cast simply by concentrating one's own power.

However, formations are quite difficult to deal with, as they are based on the Bagua (Eight Trigrams) and require further study.

Even on the night before military training, Lu Yu was unable to finish half of the course.

Just as she was about to return to the real world under the system's urging, she was stopped by Yuan Shi.

“Lu Yu”.

Upon hearing Yuanshi's calm and composed voice, Lu Yu instinctively stood up straight: "Present!"

Yuanshi said helplessly, "I just wanted to pass on a message from Tongtian."

Lu Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Ahaha...Is that so..."

Yuan Shi was a handsome middle-aged man who looked to be in his thirties. Although he was strict in class, he was relatively easy to get along with outside of class, so Lu Yu relaxed.

"What does the Tongtian Sect Leader want to tell me?"

Yuan Shi looked at Lu Yu, and after a long while, just as Lu Yu was awkwardly about to pick his toes, he spoke:

"Youth should not be burdened by too many things; freedom and unrestrainedness are the most fearless."

Yuan Shi softened his expression and somewhat awkwardly patted Lu Yu's head as he stood below the stage:

"You really shouldn't be so reserved and uncomfortable. Even if the sky falls, we'll be here for you. Why not be more outgoing and free?"

Isn't this the look you've been waiting for?

Just like why you admire strong and confident people.

You also yearn to become like them.

This is exactly what Tongtian wanted to tell Luyu.

You can cause all sorts of trouble in that world; even if something goes wrong, they'll side with their own people regardless of right or wrong.

So stop restraining yourself and let your own light shine.

When Lu Yu returned to reality, he still had a bewildered expression on his face.

"What does he want from me...?"

The girl muttered to herself in the quiet room.

[You should be bolder, show yourself, don't hide your abilities. They'll handle any consequences.]

The system's electronic voice suddenly rang in his mind, startling Lu Yu out of his daze.

……

Lin Qiye returned to his residence and immediately immersed his consciousness in the mental hospital.

"Mother, I'm back."

Pushing open the door, Nyx was holding a vase and softly singing a lullaby. Upon seeing the person outside, a smile instantly spread across her face: "Danadus, you've come."

Li Yifei, who had come to work as a caregiver at the mental hospital after being treated by Lin Qiye, walked up to him and whispered, "She has already taken her evening medication, but she doesn't want to rest."

Lin Qiye nodded, and after letting him leave, he squatted down at Nix's feet: "Why doesn't Mother rest for a while?"

Nyx gently stroked his hair, murmuring:

"Waiting for my child to come back..."

Lin Qiye remained silent, quietly accepting her caresses, and for a moment the room fell silent.

"Danadus, you haven't returned for three days. Has someone from your divine realm come looking for you?"

Lin Qiye shook his head: "No, Mother."

Nyx looked at her child with some sadness: "Then why do I see the protective aura of other gods on you?"

Does her child have another mother?

Nyx only regretted that she couldn't go out, otherwise she would definitely stay by her children's side every day to prevent any god from breaking into the house.

The protection of other gods?

Lin Qiye shuddered and almost immediately stood up: "Does Mother mean that I possess the power of another god?"

He has been training at the firm during this period and has not had any contact with any mysterious entities. Why is this happening?

"yes……"

Nyx frowned and examined it for a while, but didn't sense any danger.

"Although this deity's origin is different from mine, coming from the earth's weight and gentleness, its intention is not a threat. As I said, it is a protective force."

The image of the red-clad deity he had glimpsed that rainy night almost instantly flashed into Lin Qiye's mind.

Is it a deity represented by Lu Yu?

Lin Qiye recalled his interactions with Lu Yu during this period.

The two had sparred together during training, usually ending in a draw or with Lin Qiye occasionally winning by a narrow margin.

However, Lin Qiye felt a sense of unease, as if Lu Luyu in front of him had not used her full strength, or perhaps she was afraid and focused on restraining her aura.

She was avoiding the question of her own victory and took it for granted that Lin Qiye should be the winner.

Sometimes, if Lu Yuyi accidentally used too much force and actually caused a wound on Lin Qiye's arm, she would still use what she called the "reversal technique" to treat his hand.

treat?

Lin Qiye raised his hand and offered it to Nyx: "Mother, is the aura strongest here?"

Nyx nodded: "It's a healing aura, child, are you injured?"

Lin Qiye paused for a few seconds: "Yes, I'm healed."

It was indeed the aura of that deity.

So Lu Yu didn't use the "reversal technique" that she claimed to have always had, but rather her Divine Ruins, right?

Lin Qiye was a little angry. This person clearly knew that she would fall into a deep sleep if she overused it, so why did he waste his power on such a small wound?

They really don't take their bodies seriously at all.

Lu Yu, who will not be affected at all: What a huge accusation, I won't take the blame!

"Mother, I have a question,"

Lin Qiye suddenly remembered that the person in front of him was also one of the creator gods of a pantheon, and even shared the same origin as Gaia, the goddess of the earth. Therefore, he should have some understanding of similar situations.

"I have a friend who is a divine agent; she used the power of the Divine Ruins to resurrect the dead. Would she have paid a heavy price for that?"

Nyx looked over with some surprise:

"resurrection?"

"Yes."

Nyx pondered for a moment before speaking somewhat uncertainly:

"I've forgotten a lot of things, but when it comes to resurrecting ordinary people who have died, there should be some limitations if it's done by a suitable divine authority."

What was your friend's reaction after that?

Lin Qiye: "She has fallen into a deep sleep. Although we are not sure exactly how long, it will be at least three days."

Nyx nodded: "Although the agents of the gods have power close to that of gods, they are still human in essence."

If it were a deity who resurrected the person, the price to be paid would depend on whether the deity could bear the karmic consequences. However, if your friend did it herself, perhaps the time she spent in slumber was already the beginning of her paying the price.

Lin Qiye's eyes darkened slightly: "Is there any way to resolve this cost?"

Nyx shook her head: "She can only rely on herself. The power of the gods is something she obtained herself, and no one can bear it for her."

What a pushover, Lu Yu...

Looking back on their time together, Lin Qiye gained a deeper understanding of the girl's true nature.

She's a complete idiot.

He thinks he is selfish and lazy, but he always puts others first and neglects himself.

Lu Yu probably doesn't know it yet, but her own shining qualities, which she herself hasn't even seen, have already been noticed by everyone without her realizing it.

Everyone carefully guarded these few acts of genuine kindness, while also worrying, somewhat amused, that one day, if they weren't careful, Lu Yu might suddenly do something so overly kind that he knocked himself unconscious.

"However, if there is a price to pay, it should also be related to vitality. You can find something to replenish your vitality later to fill this gap."

Nyx offered a suggestion: after all, you should supplement what you lack. Although the method is a bit simple, as long as it works, that's fine.

Lin Qiye nodded, and he would pay more attention to this aspect from then on, since it was a favor he owed.

Moreover, Lu Yu is now a friend he acknowledges, so how could he possibly watch Lu Yu bear the consequences himself?

……

"Ah sneeze——"

The girl sat by the window and sneezed.

"And who is talking about me again?"

Have you thought this through?

Lu Yu sighed helplessly: "I already said I know! You've asked three times already."

[Anyway, you've already opened Nuwa's Divine Ruins with the help of Squad 136 and Lin Qiye, right? Keep causing trouble; you can always be resurrected anyway.]

The girl felt a cool breeze blowing in from the window, which ruffled her long, loose hair. She was more awake and relaxed than ever before.

"Okay, let's start with military training. I want to be a free Dobby!"

[...Whatever makes you happy.]

May you have great success in your military endeavors.

I'll add another chapter! Thank you everyone for the gifts and flowers! Thank you for your support~ More tomorrow!
