I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 226: 7.25 Second Violet Star - Zhi Yueʼs Secret

In the middle of the day when the saintess candidates were given a rest day from their lessons, Eirwen is enjoying the breeze while having a picnic in one of the castleʼs gardens. He got some food from the kitchen and was enjoying the feast with his gluttonous system which materialized in his human form and little food grubbing pixies under a tree shade.

Eirwen was sipping his iced latte while watching Zhi Yue fight those pixies for the sake of a few macarons and donuts. His long black hair was tugged from all angles by the pixies as they tried to stop Yue from gorging the desserts.

Piggy Yue! Save some for us!!!

Ah!!! I havenʼt tasted that Bavarian filled donut.

My eclair! You pig Iʼll fight it over with you!

My lord~ stop Zhi Yue~

Heʼs eating too much. My lord~

”Just freeze him then eat,” said Eirwen as he chooses to ignore them while reading his book.

”Lord Hei, youʼre too biased! Iʼm something like your subordinate as well. You canʼt favor just one side! I want to eat too!” complains Zhi Yue.

His host responds, ”Youʼll become a pig in reality if you donʼt stop eating too much, Yue. Though I wouldnʼt mind if I become one.” said Eirwen. 

Yue complains, ”Youʼre unfair, host~” 

Eirwen glances at Yue coldly as before but his eyes werenʼt as cold as his usual temperament. Lately, his host Hei Anjing is becoming more human despite becoming weaker. It wasnʼt just Zhi Yue who noticed he is sure that Yun Ming notices it as well. The same goes for Warden Lou. But they never say a thing about it to the Lord God. Only the Lord God didnʼt notice anything.

Yun Ming would not say a thing. He is closer to his host than to the lord god. What confuses him is that even Warden Lou never spoke a thing about it to their lord. He doesnʼt understand why even Lou Ye is not informing the Lord God about his hostʼs situation. 

But for some reason like he didnʼt say a word about it, Zhi Yue had an inkling that Warden Lou understood his hostʼs secret plans. He decided to watch until the end, he never intended to go against whatever plans his host is planning to do. 

The facade Hei Anjing shows when in front of Ye Xiajie is veiled as if nothing is wrong when they are together. Only those watches at the side can see the changes.

It might not be visible to those who werenʼt always with their host. But he, Zhi Yue, as his system knew more than what was untold. His hostʼs soul gets weaker at each world they enter. The changes were something Zhi Yue noticed in the fourth world.

The soul of his host was injured badly in that world. Though he told them that he could heal himself after leaving that world, Zhi Yue watched him meditate in secret only to see his soul weaken further and mask his soul to be solidified in front of him.

Zhi Yue had stopped reporting to his boss personally after the fourth world and only sent him reports through papers and secretly watched his host behind the scene. He saw him use his own soul as his source of true qi. The reason Hei Anjing remains the strongest is that he uses his own soul as fuel. This is also the reason why he gets weaker as each world is completed.

Zhi Yue couldnʼt understand the reason behind his hostʼs action. Even if he thinks about it, there is no way for him to know the answer. Prisoner Yun Ming seems to understand something but chooses to remain silent. Ever since Lord Hei had unsealed his memories from the last world, he became even more servile towards his host.

There are no words exchanged between them but Yun Ming follows each of his hostʼs commands without question. Warden Lou knew what his host did. It was forbidden for someone of higher authority like Hei Anjing to break the rules of the Nether System but when his hostʼs parents and relatives came to visit, they never reprimand him for breaking the rules as if theyʼve already expected it.

Instead, they helped his host stabilized his soul. Thought his hostʼs cultivation degraded from by being an Immortal God to just being a God King. Moreover, he overheard them talking about his hostʼs soul being incomplete. Just based on this information, his hostʼs situation is even worse than their Lord God but his lord didnʼt know.

Eirwen Night noticed his stupid system staring at him weirdly. He looked at him and said,

”Speak. Donʼt hold back what you want to say? It doesnʼt fit you even if you suddenly play the role of a mute, Yue.” says Eirwen with a smirk.

Zhi Yue replies, ”Host when you get caught by the Lord God and get dragged to do nightly exercises I will give you a useful gift and prevent that from breaking! I guarantee a hundred percent success. You would only feel comfortable all night~” his current expression isnʼt that much different when Lucas is in fudanshi mode.

His systemʼs current expression made Eirwen embarrassed and at the same time pissed off. He threw the book in his hand towards Zhi Yue. It hits the latterʼs forehead but Yueʼs expression remains neutral. The book doesnʼt cause him any pain as he is a God same as his host.

Zhi Yue stopped teasing his host and returned his book to him. He started talking about their mission in this world instead.

”My Lady~” calls Yue with a smile.

Eirwen glared at him coldly and once again lifted the book which was just returned to him intending to hit his stupid system for the second time.

”Do you want to be flattened by this book or call his lord properly?” says Eirwen as his tone turned cold and menacing.

Zhi Yue, who stands down in the face of danger, instantly changes his way of calling Eirwen.

”My Lord... What is your decision about our mission in this world? The world error task had two options. The first one is to become the Saintess in this world and replace the destined one. The other is to nurture your chosen Saintess and make her the strongest human in this world.” said Zhi Yue.

He closed the book we were reading and looked at the floral scenery in front of him. The full bloom of varying colored tulips was gorgeous and breathtaking. But despite such a beautiful scene, no other emotion was seen within his aureate eyes. As always his hostʼs real emotions only come out in front of the Lord God. It wouldnʼt change unless heʼs acting a role.

”Yue, I know that you were watching me the whole time. Why had you never reported the actions I have taken to your boss or to AʼXia? Being your host is just a temporary thing.” says Eirwen.

Zhi Yue was only silent for a moment before answering his hostʼs question. 

After being an Executioner for hundreds of years there is no way Zhi Yue hasnʼt heard anything about the first ranked Executioner in the all realms. The strongest god slayer and the most feared God. The God of Destruction. Anyone who heard of his name would tremble, those who fear him were never those gods who never did a bad thing.

Only fallen gods and evil gods shiver upon hearing his name. They run faster than rabbits in his presence. He is a notorious God with a bad reputation but he never harms someone who is innocent. But once he made a decision to kill no matter who it was, he would never have chosen as the target would die no matter what. 

Thatʼs the reason why the God of Destruction is feared but all.

But after spending lifetimes by this God of Destructionʼs side, Zhi Yue found another side of this venerable lord. He is indeed merciless but has never been heartless. The cold nature is because of their special bloodline. But he watches him change as his feelings for the Lord God deepens, slowly he becomes human little by little. Though his expressions remain unmoved as always it would sometimes change as long as those he cares for are involved. 

Zhi Yue kneeled on one knee and lowered his head before his host and replied to his question with honesty. 

”I do not know what you plan to do but I know what kind of person you are. You would never take action unless you planned the whole thing. The God of Destruction I know never failed a mission.” said Zhi Yue. 

The lips of Eirwen slightly upturned as if mocking himself. ”Would you still be able to say such a thing if I told you that the first and only failed mission in my eternal life concerns the person who saved your life? Yue, donʼt trust me. I am not an infamous God for nothing.” he says before closing his eyes as if preparing to take his nap.

The words his host had spoken rendered him speechless. He was stunned and stared at Eirwen Nightʼs sleeping figure with shock. He tries to cover up his mouth afraid of waking up the person in front of him.

He had countless unanswered questions in his mind but the one who could give him an answer wouldnʼt utter a single word in reply. He could only cover up his napping host with a clean blanket the pixies prepared for their lord.

Zhi Yue watches his host in silence.

”What are you trying to hide, Lord Hei?” murmured Zhi Yue.

It was already afternoon when Eirwen Night woke up from his nap. Zhi Yue had returned to his moon avatar form and stayed at the top of his head nodding off as well. Looking around him, he saw the ice pixies taking naps with him.

Eirwen could still vaguely remember the contents of his dream.

”The only way I could escape his control is to... complete the life mission he had given me. Iʼve never wanted to get you involved...”

A manʼs hoarse undertone voice lingers in his mind as if every word was whispered directly to his ears making him remember every single word.

Eirwen Night murmured, ”Itʼs been a while since Iʼve dreamed about this.”

This dream made him remember that past he wishes he had forgotten. That was the time in his life when he first experienced extreme happiness at the same extreme sorrow.

”Would you get angry if you learn Iʼve chosen this way to get your freedom? I really feared your anger but... this is the only way I can save you. Forgive me, my love.” he murmured quietly as reminisce of that memory he wished he had never recalled.
