!!
Shi Xiaobai was surprised. He never expected Leonis to discover that he had secretly eaten the fruit!
Shi Xiaobai immediately felt a little guilty. It was indeed not a good thing to secretly eat the things of others. He really could not tolerate the allure of the fragrance emitted by the holy tree's fruit. Furthermore, he was infuriated by the Transcendents' belittlement, so he had done such a thing. He was indeed in the wrong on this matter!
It was also possible that Leonis was not sure who had stolen the food and was deliberately trying to extort him. At this moment, the best course of action was to pretend not to understand or angrily accuse Leonis of maligning him.
However, Shi Xiaobai did not like to do so. He sighed and said, "This King was indeed rash to secretly eat that fruit. Tell me, what does this fruit mean to you, to the Transcendents, and even to this world? If This King can make up for it, I will definitely do my best. "
If you were caught doing something wrong, you had to admit it honestly. Even if it wasn't a mistake from your point of view, a mistake was a mistake. Subjective sophistry couldn't change the objective facts.
Now that Shi Xiaobai thought about it carefully, he felt that he had been too rash in secretly eating the Transcendence Holy Tree's fruit. After all, the fruit's effects were astounding, so it was likely extremely precious. Secretly eating an extremely precious treasure of the Transcendents to take revenge on them for their contempt and arrogance was truly beneath him.
Leonis said with a sneer, "It was indeed you who ate it!"
Shi Xiaobai calmly nodded and said, "It was indeed eaten by This King."
Indeed, Leonis was extorting him, but Shi Xiaobai had openly admitted to it.
Pulp Farmer and company looked at each other. They were somewhat curious as to what Shi Xiaobai had secretly eaten. They had never heard of the Transcendence Holy Tree's fruit, but ever since they entered Leonis's bedroom, they automatically fell silent.
This was because they knew from the beginning that this meet-up was a conversation between Leonis and Shi Xiaobai. The three of them were probably invited in passing.
And when Leonis heard Shi Xiaobai openly admitting to his' evil deeds', his expression turned extremely ugly. He fell silent like a cold and hard rock.
The atmosphere was awkward.
Shi Xiaobai coughed and said once again, "What does that fruit signify? This King is not an overbearing and unreasonable person. If that fruit can really affect the entire world as you said, then This King will think of a way to bear the responsibility of eating that fruit! "
When Leonis heard this, his eyes flickered for a moment. His stiff body gradually hunched down. with a deep sigh, he said softly, "Forget it, forget it. Maybe this is fate. Maybe you are more qualified than This King to eat that fruit, but human, you will definitely pay a huge price for eating that fruit. because the fruit you ate is called … Devil Fruit!"
Shi Xiaobai's eyebrows pricked up as he said in surprise, "Devil Fruit? Why would the fruit of a holy tree bear such an ominous name? "
Leonis said with a sneer, "The Transcendence Holy Tree is just a name. In fact, it's not a holy tree, but a magical tree! Do you know why the third form of Moya and the fourth form of This King would lose their minds, and why their bodies would be filled with an aura of darkness? King, the God to King Transcendents? King
With this said, Shi Xiaobai and company were astounded. Shi Xiaobai said with a deep voice, "You are telling us such a secret? Aren't you afraid that we will divulge it? "
Leonis said, "The Transcendents have long been criticized as the bastards of the Devils, but people only think of it as rumors and slander. This is because the Transcendents have always been the main force resisting the Infernal King and the Devils. Even if you were to divulge it, it would only be treated as another joke or rumor. And the reason why I'm telling you this matter is to tell you that human, from the moment you ate the Devil Fruit, you have signed a Devil contract with the God of the Devils. Now, you are no longer a pure human, but … a half-devil!"
What was a Devil? There were different definitions in different worlds and planes of existence. Shi Xiaobai did not know what this world's definition of a Devil was, but it was definitely not a good word. However, Shi Xiaobai did not sense any strange changes after eating the fruit. Other than his physical strength rising several notches, there did not seem to be any other effects.
Shi Xiaobai asked, "What is a Devil? What kind of effect does This King's eating of the Devil Fruit have on you and the Transcendents, as well as this world? "
Leonis fell silent for a moment before saying, "A Devil is naturally a Devil. The Infernal King and his Devil army that resides in the Infernal domain are a type of Devil. However, the Devil bloodline of us Transcendents is not the same type of Devil as the Infernal King. Furthermore, we happen to be mortal enemies! It can be said that our race's Devil bloodline is born to destroy the Infernal domain! And the fruit you ate was originally meant for our race's King to eat, which is also for This King to eat. In order to complete the King's Mandate! "
When Shi Xiaobai heard the last few words, he immediately exclaimed, "What did you say? The King's Mandate? "
Leonis's eyebrows pricked up slightly. He could not figure out the reason for Shi Xiaobai's sudden agitation, but he could not be bothered to probe. Instead, he said coldly, "The Transcendents and the Infernal domain's Infernal King and Devils are natural enemies. Therefore, the Transcendents' King has always been burdened with the King's Mandate, which is … to kill the Infernal King and destroy the Infernal domain! Our Transcendents' King is the world's first Braveheart! And the Transcendence Holy Tree's Devil Fruit is the strongest means that the King uses to complete his Mandate! "
"This King only learned of this matter after becoming the King of the Transcendents and receiving the King's inheritance. The price paid to sign a contract with the God of the Infernal far exceeds your imagination, but the power obtained is extremely terrifying. Originally, This King only needed to eat another Devil Fruit to possess the power to kill the Infernal King. However, This King had mistakenly eaten one when he was young. Although eating two Devil Fruits will drastically shorten This King's lifespan, This King will die without regrets if he can complete the King's Mandate! "
"Human, you secretly ate a Devil Fruit and even beat This King into such a state. This means that the only hope in this world to kill the Infernal King has been extinguished by you. To This King, to the Transcendents, and to the entire world, you are the greatest villain!"
Leonis's voice grew louder as his tone turned harsher, as though he was accusing Shi Xiaobai.
However, Shi Xiaobai laughed. He said with a smile, "So that's the case. In the end, you are just hoping that This King, who had secretly eaten the Devil Fruit, will complete the so-called King's Mandate for you. That can't be any simpler. Isn't it just killing the Infernal King and destroying the Infernal domain? Why would This King be afraid!? "
Shi Xiaobai never expected that the riddle that he had been vexing over would be solved so quickly.
From the looks of it, the King's Mandate referred to the Transcendents' King's Mandate!
Although it was somewhat of a coincidence, there was no more reasonable explanation than this.
As for the Devil Fruit or the half-devil, who cared!
At the end of the day, there were only three words — kill the Infernal King!
However, this seemed to produce a strange contradiction.
From the present situation, killing the Infernal King would complete the King's Mandate, completing the first choice.
And in the recent discussions, it was concluded that killing the Infernal King would end the Age of Bravehearts, completing the second choice.
Then, the completion condition for the first and second choices was to kill the Infernal King, so why was there a choice?
The choice was obviously a fork in the road, so why did it become the same path?
Could it be that one of the inferences was wrong?
Forget it. Regardless of which inference was right or wrong, killing the Infernal King was definitely not wrong!
Shi Xiaobai grinned and looked at Pulp Farmer and company in high spirits. He said, "Let's go. Let's go to the Infernal domain to kill the Infernal King!"
