However, this time, Roa did not answer questions or clarify doubts but smiled at Geese and said, "What you should be thinking about now is whether you can survive in my hands."
Geese sighed and said, "Do you know the Human God? No, it seems you know a lot. Your existence has already exceeded that person's imagination."
Roa said expressionlessly, "Follow me."
Then he grabbed Geese by the collar, and in the next moment, they disappeared from the spot.
When Roa's figure reappeared, they were in the middle of a forest.
In the blink of an eye, they arrived at such a place. Even Geese, who had seen much of the world, couldn't help but be astonished.
At the same time, he felt an overwhelming bitterness in his heart. The Human God had told him that he would meet a handsome young man here, and all he had to do was to approach him. He had thought this task would be very simple, but unexpectedly, just a few words led to him being seen through, and he ended up in such a predicament.
Roa directly grabbed Geese by the neck, lifting him up, his expression growing colder.
"You should know that I have never been a soft-hearted person. Now, I ask, you answer. Do you understand?"
Although Roa's expression was frightening, Geese still remained silent.
Only his face grew increasingly pale.
Roa raised an eyebrow and slightly loosened his grip on Geese's neck, but Geese's body still hung in mid-air.
Geese coughed a few times, and his somewhat frail face showed a look of desperation.
Roa was somewhat speechless.
Even though the other party knew he served the Human God, he was still willing to become the other party's follower, which already proved many things.
So, the choices before him were only three.
Kill the other party.Release the other party.Attempt to control the other party using a magic seed.
The first to be ruled out was option three; he couldn't determine whether the Human God had other hidden hands or not.
What if he planted a magic seed on the other party, and then the Human God found a way to eliminate it, leading to a backstab? That would be disastrous.
Magic seeds can potentially be removed.
Moreover, facing the Human God, it would be the most foolish act to plant a flag near him.
Currently, Roa knew that the abilities the Human God possessed were foresight and mind reading.
These two skills could effectively prevent him from being betrayed by those around him.
So, what remained was quite simple: kill him or let him go.
Geese felt a chill run down his spine, a strong killing intent emanating from Roa, this intense killing intent felt like a pitch-black hand tightly gripping Geese's heart.
His brain trembled, and every nerve was constantly stabbing at Geese's mind.
His heart was beating so fiercely.
Run! He must escape!
In fact, Geese still held some hope, such as hoping that Roa would spare him for the sake of his past friendship with Paul.
Also, perhaps the other party didn't have such a deep grudge against the Human God.
Speaking of grudges, Geese found it quite strange. Even if the other party knew the Human God, they shouldn't have much interaction with him.
But it was clear that when the other party mentioned the Human God, the killing intent had already risen.
In fact, most people in this world have no impression of the Human God.
In books, there are also not very detailed descriptions of this continent.
It roughly goes like this: Over one hundred thousand years ago.
This world was divided into seven realms, each governed by a deity.
This was referred to as the "Era of the Ancient Gods."
The seven realms and their deities are as follows:
The realm of humans, the Human God.The realm of demons, the Demon God.The realm of dragons, the Dragon God.The realm of beasts, the Beast God.The realm of the sea, the Sea God.The realm of the sky, the Sky God.The realm of nothingness, the God of Nothing.
The worlds were separated by something akin to barriers, making it impossible to casually travel to other realms.
The inhabitants of a single realm did not know that there were actually other realms.
It is said that only a portion of the deities and individuals powerful enough to break through the barriers know of the existence of other realms.
And twenty thousand to ten thousand years ago.
The realm of dragons gave birth to an extremely evil Dragon God.
The Dragon God, possessing extraordinary power, broke the barriers and commanded subordinates known as the "Five Dragon Generals," destroying other realms.
After the world was destroyed, the surviving people had no place to go and could only flee to other realms.
When only one realm remained, the "Five Dragon Generals" betrayed the Dragon God.
The Dragon Emperor, the leader of the "Five Dragon Generals," and the other four Dragon Kings stood up to fight against the overwhelmingly powerful Dragon God.
In a five-to-one death struggle, the result was a stalemate.
Affected by the aftermath of this battle, the realm of dragons collapsed.
In the end, only the realm of humans remained.
That is this world.
This is the disaster experienced in ancient times.
This world is not as peaceful as it appears on the surface.
Many things happened afterward.
For example, the period from ten thousand years ago to eight thousand years ago is referred to as the Age of Chaos.
It was an era when the ancestors of the human race living here fought against the inhabitants of other realms.
Although there are almost no documents from this era, scholars have deduced that after a long time, various races found places to settle.
For example, the beast race lived in forests, the sea race dominated the oceans, and the sky race controlled the highlands.
Although the dragon race has dwindled, they still quietly hide away from others. The no-race can live anywhere, so they can be seen everywhere.
Only the human race and the demon race fought on flat ground.
At that time, the central continent and the demon continent were connected, and it was said to be called the Great Continent.
The subsequent events are quite simple: the human race and the demon race clashed and fought for a long time.
In the end, the human race produced a hero named the Golden Knight Aldebaran, who single-handedly repelled an enemy army of over ten thousand, defeated every powerful demon, and even dueled with the then Demon Emperor. The ultimate move he unleashed created a large hole in the Great Continent, thus splitting it into the central continent and the demon continent, and creating the Ringus Sea.
If this were in a novel from a previous life, he would undoubtedly be the hero.
The topic has strayed, but in reality, the true orchestrator of all this was the Human God.
In short, if one were to identify a major BOSS in the world of "Mushoku Tensei," it would not be the Dragon God, but the Human God.
Although the other party cannot directly intervene in reality, this manipulative character can see into the future and then change the course of reality to make everything develop in a way that is advantageous to himself.
Without a doubt, that is the kind of person he is.
In other words, he is like a rat in the sewer, a toad in the mud, a leech in the sewage, a fly in the dung pit, rat droppings in the porridge, a mosquito spreading viruses, a useless person in idioms, and a stinky fish in proverbs.
In short, this person must be eliminated for my heart to be at peace.
However, the current advantage is that I know the other party, while the other party does not know me.
Due to the information gap, the Human God hurriedly sent his subordinates to deliver a head.
Perhaps the Human God saw something in the future, so he sent his most skilled infiltrator, Geese, to test the waters.
But he probably never expected that Roa would lay everything bare.
The current situation is that Geese has to pay for the Human God's mistake.
Roa coldly asked again, "Don't you have anything to say?"
Geese swallowed hard; he was feeling somewhat troubled.
He could only feel the other party's fingers tightening, and his face was turning extremely pale.
Roa sneered, "I didn't expect that even going out to buy a piece of clothing would yield results. By the way, let me think about what information that Human God has. Well, it's all just stinky fish and rotten shrimp anyway. Why doesn't that disgusting guy try to make me his apostle? Is he afraid? Or is it because of so-called 'fate'?"
Geese looked at Roa with a somewhat pleading expression, and he couldn't answer the words spoken by the young man.
After all, he had no idea about such matters; he was not the Human God.
As his neck tightened, gradually, his breathing became weaker, and the pallor on his face was due to the lack of oxygen, causing blood to rush to his face.
Roa didn't waste any more words and directly intended to strangle him to death.
In fact, there was a simpler method: directly crush his neck, but that felt a bit too easy for him.
He couldn't let him die so simply, and Roa still hoped that the other party could provide some useful information.
Geese was not a strong person; he was just an ordinary demon, lacking powerful physical qualities and advanced magical skills. His only reliance was the Human God's foresight of the future.
When the once-unfailingly accurate ability to foresee the future is no longer precise, at that moment, he is nothing.
In the end, Roa merely watched him struggle bitterly with indifference, and then die by his own hand.
"Apostle of the Human-God, minus one."
Casually tossing the other's corpse on the ground, the magic power in his hand gathered, and the dark magic power surged from all directions towards Geese's corpse like a tide, turning it into ashes in just a breath.
Geese opened his eyes in confusion.
His condition at this moment was not good.
No, he should be dead by now.
His identity was inexplicably seen through by that young man, and then he was inexplicably killed.
But in the end, he still didn't reveal any information about the Human-God to him, which should be considered a help, right?
The Human-God once showed kindness to Geese, and he had to repay that kindness.
Even though he knew that the other party was the culprit who destroyed his hometown, he still maintained a feeling of gratitude towards him.
But compared to gratitude, there was also some hatred mixed in.
In short, Geese's feelings towards the Human-God were not good, hatred and kindness mixed together, causing him to not know what to do.
The moment Geese opened his eyes, the surrounding time became extremely slow.
This world had no color, only a vast expanse of white.
But compared to the vast white world that Roa had experienced, this world seemed even more monotonous.
This world was the world of [Nothingness].
This world does not allow anyone to actively enter or exit, not even the strongest.
The only condition for being able to enter is to be a dead person.
Of course, since the Human-God could appear here, it meant that he was an exception.
And now the Human-God was standing in front of Geese with an angry expression.
The Human-God did not feel self-reproach or guilt for Geese losing his life due to his failed prediction, his facial features were obscured by mist, and only a rough human outline could be seen.
Two hands, two feet, a bipedal creature, with a head, able to speak, that was the so-called 'human'.
Unable to see his facial features, he was just standing silently in front of Geese at this moment.
The Human-God didn't say much, just glanced at Geese coldly, and said indifferently: "Alright, your mission is over, go where you should go."
Geese was stunned, the look of confusion on his face became more obvious.
"Where I should go?"
Geese looked at the Human-God's face obscured by mist and felt at a loss.
The Human-God just said coldly: "Waste, you've already been killed, what else can you do? Of course, you should go where you should go, I don't have the ability to revive you."
A bitter and helpless smile appeared on Geese's face, which could not be called handsome.
Geese didn't say much, he had worked for the Human-God for so long, he should know what kind of person the other party was.
But hearing the other party abandon him so lightly, he would inevitably feel a little sad.
The Human-God didn't have the intention to talk nonsense with Geese, the facial features obscured by the thick fog were constantly distorted, even if he couldn't see the other party's face, he could still feel his anger.
The Human-God watched Geese gradually disappear, constantly muttering in his mouth: "How could this happen, how could this happen? Another change? The future I saw has been changed again? No, impossible, this isn't right, is it?"
The timeline could indeed be changed, but most of the timelines were changed because of the Human-God's will.
Unless there was interference from a strong person like the Dragon God, the results of the normal timeline were unchangeable.
And even with the Dragon God's interference, the Human-God could still achieve his desired goal through various layouts.
But right now, the game he had set up had been seen through by the other party before it even started, which made the Human-God feel very unhappy.
Although the loss was only a pawn, it was a great humiliation for the Human-God, who had never suffered a loss in thousands of years.
Thinking of this, the Human-God's teeth itched with anger.
He wanted to spy on the other party, but he couldn't see the other party's future at all.
Since he couldn't spy on the other party's fate, he could only indirectly spy on Roa through the fate of others.
Thinking of this, the Human-God concentrated his mind and prepared to use the divine power he had stolen from the Creator God to spy on the other party.
The Human-God, an unknown creature that had existed in this world for a long time.
After discovering the corpse of the Creator God, he obtained divine power and devoured the weakest Human-God.
He possessed divine power and unimaginable power and knowledge, and could foresee the future.
But this time, his wish to spy on the other party through others was ultimately in vain.
The other party seemed to have never appeared, and in the following month, his figure disappeared from this world like a bubble.
The Human-God's eyes narrowed slightly, and he fell into deep thought.
Variables like Roa were best nipped in the bud.
But now Roa had already become a force to be reckoned with, the magic power on his body was definitely not small, and just relying on his aura, he had probably already stepped into the Saint or King level.
Unless he used the remaining three pawns, it would be difficult to kill such a character.
No, that's not right, the Dragon God.
Suddenly, he thought of a plan, a plan to make the other party encounter the Dragon God.
Since he couldn't get rid of him, he might as well set up various 'coincidences' to make the other party meet the Dragon God, and then use his hand to consume the Dragon God's power, and also use the Dragon God to kill him.
This was undoubtedly an excellent plan.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of the Human-God's mouth, and his face was no longer as gloomy as before.
Geese's appearance reminded Roa, and also made Roa feel a sense of urgency.
He knew his own strength best, although he could walk sideways on this continent, if he really encountered the Seven Great Powers, he would still have to kneel.
He could barely win against a lower-ranked Power, but he would most likely lose against an upper-ranked Power.
The sense of urgency in his heart became even stronger, Roa didn't expect the Human-God to notice him so quickly.
It seemed that he had to speed up his pace.
Just like that, Roa, who had been thinking all the way, returned to the palace again.
Without much nonsense, Roa found Roxy, who was training the soldiers, and said to her: "Roxy-sensei, come over here for a moment."
Roxy was concentrating on using some low-level magic to train the soldiers' reaction speed, and now she was directly pulled over by Roa.
Roxy looked at Roa helplessly and said: "What's wrong, Roa, what's the matter? Do that kind of thing at night, I have serious business to do now."
Roa didn't talk much nonsense, and directly said to Roxy: "You stay here for the time being, if you want to leave, you must tell me."
Roxy felt inexplicable, she scratched her head and said strangely: "Roa, what happened?"
Roa didn't explain much to Roxy, even if he told Roxy about the Human-God, she would unintentionally fall for the other party's scheme.
He took out something similar to a magic stone from his pocket and handed it to Roxy.
Roxy was slightly stunned, and took the magic stone that Roa handed over.
The magic stone had a black appearance and exuded a strong ominous aura, just one glance was enough to make one feel frightened.
If ordinary people saw it, they would probably throw the magic stone away like a hot potato, right?
But Roxy felt a very familiar power from it.
This was exactly Roa's magic power, and the amount of magic power inside was not small.
Roa taught Roxy how to use it: "You must always hold this thing, the magic stone can provide you with protection, when you encounter danger, it can help you withstand a full-force strike equivalent to that of a Sword King."
