My Weekly Refreshing Mentor Spirit

Chapter 545 - 357: Miracle of Light Descends (2)

Margaret remained silent, obviously dissatisfied with Xue Dili’s terms, and once again kicked Xue Dili out.

If Xue Dili weren’t so troublesome, and killing him at this moment would likely end in failure, Margaret would have found a way to eliminate this annoying pest long ago.

There are 20 minutes left until Hell’s collision.

The gravity between the two worlds is completely chaotic, with a plethora of debris sucked into the sky, drifting between the gravitational pulls of the two planets, akin to a doomsday tornado obscuring the sky.

The atmospheres of the two planets are also drawn toward the intersection of their gravitational pulls. Viewed from the planet, a gigantic tornado obscuring the sky converges at the exact center between the two planets.

Moreover, whether looking at the Green Star from Hell or viewing Hell from the Green Star, both planets completely cover the sky.

The entire starry sky now only shows the view of the opposite planet. Even those hiding inside houses, holding onto fixtures to prevent themselves from being sucked away by gravity, are now unable to hold on.

Because the houses on the ground have begun to warp, those built with demonic power are emitting grating sounds and are at the brink of disintegration under the gravitational pull of the two planets.

Perhaps what the human-demon said is true, at least ensuring a root demon remains alive will prevent Hell from being completely captured by Margaret, and the two planets won’t collide into each other.

In the most rational scenario, this is the best plan.

However, Xue Dili never considered compromising with demons. Today, demons use planetary collision to force compromise; tomorrow, they’ll use the lives of others for the same.

Compromising with demons once will inevitably lead to a second time, and countless times after that, so Xue Dili will never compromise.

The same goes for Margaret!

"Margaret, I’m here to negotiate!" The silver-blue demon reappeared in the Little Witch’s consciousness.

At this moment, the surging Holy Sword of Light reappeared, ready to strike without hesitation.

Margaret was also furious, becoming anxious due to Xue Dili’s interference. Her absorption of authority and the progress of reclaiming control over the world were swiftly slowing down, but if she attempted to eliminate Xue Dili now, calculations showed she would be unable to fully absorb all power before the planetary collision.

Thus, she would become a crippled World Consciousness incapable of controlling all authority! And wrestle for power.

The unsolved authorities will certainly spawn a new World Consciousness or something like a demonic authority creature.

None of these are results she desires to see.

Even worse, Xue Dili still holds her temporary bestowed power, and this time there’s no way to retrieve it.

"Otherworldly People, your task is complete. Now, I permit you to leave with this power. You need not concern yourself with the remaining matters here; go!" Margaret said, like an emperor giving a peasant a bowl of porridge.

She decided not to retract this power of the Light Demon, but to reward Xue Dili with it. Henceforth, he can transform into any "hero" concept, freely becoming any hero figure he idealizes.

From Xue Dili and Susu’s memories, Margaret extracted many concepts, whether it’s a Masked Rider riding a motorcycle like a locust, the light shining across the Cosmos, the flame-winged man soaring amidst skyscrapers, or the little spider-man halting a train...

These were the dreams of the Otherworldly boy’s long-held aspirations. However, at this moment, when he truly possesses the ability to transform into those heroes, his choice is...

"Margaret, I’m here to negotiate!" Xue Dili reiterated the previous words, "Stop your devouring, either give me time to take Susu and all humans away, or let me blow up Hell!"

"Impossible!" Margaret immediately responded, "Human, you’ve already gained unimaginable rewards, the power to become any hero concept, and yet you’re still so greedy? Isn’t this the power you’ve always desired?"

This was everything Xue Dili once wanted most. Since the fire, he seemed to be chasing that figure, in the room left to himself after the disaster, watching heroes on TV. Unknowingly, the hand reaching out from the fire gradually fused with the heroes on the screen.

Is this everything he truly desires?

Is this the purpose behind some of his actions?

Is possessing a hero’s power equal to being a hero?

"Then I’ll give you back this power," Xue Dili said, "using this power to exchange for Susu and the remaining humans."

"Go away!"

The roar echoed again, Margaret no longer prepared to waste words with Xue Dili, but continued absorbing the remaining power at the fastest speed.

Xue Dili’s authority could be reclaimed, but it’s unnecessary. Because the Hero Demon is born from the miracle created by the collective longing of the Savior team for a Savior, together with Xue Dili’s status.

This miracle bears the status of Xue Dili, the Otherworldly person, and it won’t be of much use even if Margaret absorbs it; rather, it would contaminate her own authority.

Simply put, other authorities are candies to Margaret, but Xue Dili’s current Hero Demon authority is like industrial sugar, consumable but unnecessary.
