Behead God: You will eventually become a god!

Chapter 165 The Promise of Favor

"Who's there?!"

Chen Chen had just sneaked back to his room and was about to go to bed to rest when he subconsciously discovered that there was someone lying on his bed.

Then he felt a little confused, but when he heard the voice of the figure on the bed, he quickly recalled what happened the day before. He couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed that he had actually forgotten about the girl.

"You're back?" Xia Xishan said softly.

The time now is around five o'clock in the morning. It is still dark outside. Similarly, the house is also pitch black and the lights in the room are not on.

Chen Chen was stunned for a few seconds, nodded habitually, and then realized that the room was dark and the other party couldn't see him nodding at all, so he quickly said:

"I'm sorry, I was so busy today that I forgot about you."

The attitude is very sincere, an explanation must be given, and an apology must be made.

He had taken the initiative to invite people to live in his home, and without their knowledge. Now he had actually forgotten about it. This was a heinous crime.

"You don't have to apologize, it's okay."

The figure leaning against the wall at the head of the bed spoke in a very gentle tone.

The atmosphere between the two was a little awkward at this moment, and Chen Chen didn't know what to talk about. He always felt a little hot and uneasy, not knowing whether it was because of the weather.

Xia Xishan, who was sitting on the bed, seemed to realize that Chen Chen was not very good at speaking, and then said:

"Thank you so much for what you did yesterday!"

Chen Chen was about to say you're welcome, but the other party took the lead and continued:

"As for the no-thank-you thing, there's no need to say that. And I always feel like you're not from our country, right? You don't have to rush to explain, or refuse...

I spent the day here today, listening to the conversations between customers and store employees, which gave me some guesses. But what finally confirmed me was the dialect you spoke, which seemed to be neither a Kansai accent nor a Kanto accent, so I guessed that you were not from our country. "

Chen Chen: ...

Am I really that easy to guess? Whether it's the person in front of me or the native in Egypt before... they always figure me out when they meet for the first time.

After hesitating for a while, Chen Chen admitted without comment:

"Your analysis is correct."

After hearing this, Xia Xishan seemed to be relieved. "I will definitely repay you for saving my life."

After she finished speaking, she hesitated again, but still added: "If... I said if, if I am still alive in the future, I will definitely repay you."

This series of words caught Chen Chen off guard, but he still said politely:

"You're overthinking it. There's no need to worry. As for me saving you yesterday, it was just a coincidence. Besides, I was originally going to cause trouble for those oracles... Even if you weren't there yesterday, I would have taken action against them."

"This is different." In the dark room, Xia Xishan shook her head vigorously, but the expression on her pretty face was unusually firm. However, in the darkness, Chen Chen did not see it.

"You are the one who caused trouble for them. But you saved me. This is a fact for me. One thing is one thing, and now I owe you my life.

If I have another chance in the future, I will give this life back to you."

"What a stubborn girl." However, Chen Chen also heard some clues from her words, "In the future?! Then you..."

Xia Xishan took a few deep breaths and began to speak calmly:

"Then let me tell you about other things, for example, our country. I know you may not know much about our country, but from your perspective, what do you think?"

"..." Chen Chen began to think seriously, "I think your country has a very developed industry, and the nightlife in the city is also quite rich... In general, it is prosperous and lively."

"Is that all?" Xia Xishan sighed slightly. She seemed dissatisfied with the answer. This was not what she wanted to hear.

"Then do you know why those so-called oracles want to kill me?"

Chen Chen was a little more clear and quickly gave the answer, "Because you are the master of Huojin Sword."

"Yes and no. You can understand it that way, but it's not entirely correct... To be precise, it's our existence that has affected their rule and their status in the hearts of their people."

As he spoke, Xia Xishan's tone suddenly became more disappointed.

"On that day, the people in Osaka knelt down. I think you must have seen it, right? If you look at it from this perspective, what do you think of this country?"

"This..." Chen Chen suddenly fell silent.

In fact, he knew some things, such as Yurina's life experience and the things that happened when Nanaya first met her. He also knew that the so-called first to fourth generations of people were all under the management of the [Pure Land].

The law prohibiting suicide, the rulers who slaughtered their people at will, the people who knelt down when they saw the messenger, and the ideologically conscious rebels like Amamiya Haruki were all labeled criminals...

It seems that from another perspective, it is these nominal criminals who are the ones who most want to save the faith of those ignorant people.

"……Pitiful."

After a long while, Chen Chen could only slowly utter two words.

At this time, Xia Xishan smiled self-deprecatingly, with a hint of sadness appearing in his eyes.

"You are right. I think so too. I think our country is sad... But as citizens of this country, as long as it is not the last moment, we criminals still have a chance to save our country, right?"

When he finished speaking, Xia Xishan's tone changed mischievously and became excited.

Even though tears were about to well up in her eyes, she still said in a fake cheerful tone, "Right."

Chen Chen didn't know what to say, so he could only encourage:

"Come on! You will succeed."

Hearing this, there seemed to be a glimmer of hope in Xia Xishan's eyes at this moment.

"Thank you for your blessing. When theocracy is completely dethroned and people regain their freedom... I will repay your kindness.

But now this life belongs not only to me, but also to this country.

If that day really comes, this life will be yours, okay?"

"Can."

Chen Chen stood there in a daze, uttering two words stiffly and intermittently.
