From the chest of the King of Darkness, he pulled out the Fire Sword stained with the abyss. Looking at the King of Darkness who had lost his consciousness and turned into a corpse, Ashes slowly raised his head and looked at

With the dark sky above my head, I let out a long breath...

Then he slowly knelt down on the ground... Emptiness and exhaustion found Ashes at this moment. He won, and the King of Darkness... lost!

Looking at Ashes kneeling on the ground, Clara couldn't help but be startled, and wanted to rush over to help Ashes up, but this time, she was stopped by the fire prevention girl...

"Madam, it's not over yet. Lord Ashes, there is still one more thing to do, and one more thing to decide, and it is not the turn of any of us to be involved in this matter..."

Hearing this, Clara turned her head in confusion and looked at Ashes who was half-kneeling in front of the Lord of Darkness, wondering what else he had to do...

Suddenly, Hui Jin inserted the fire sword in his hand into the ground, then stood up from the ground with the long sword, and grabbed the Dark King who fell on the ground. Step by step, he stepped on the yellow sand and started to move forward...

As for the Fire Sword, it was stuck in the sand and was not taken away.

Dragging the body of the Dark King, Ashes came to the row of thrones. He raised his head and looked at the eight dwarf kings who were nailed to the thrones above their heads, and then looked at the ones who had been sitting obediently on the thrones from beginning to end.

The painter showed a bitter smile and said, "Now...everything is ready, right?"

The Painter looked at the surging abyss on Ashes, and then at the body of the King of Darkness with a sword piercing the chest. He stared at the fire-proof girl's eyes, looked at Ashes and nodded lightly and said, "

Yes, great king, everything is ready, so...what is your decision? You should have felt it, the flame is calling you."

Ashes nodded noncommittally, then smiled slightly and said, "Yes, I feel it, the flame is calling me. The surging abyss is the skeleton of the new world, and the power of the king's soul is the flesh and blood of the new world... Everything is ready

Ready."

The painter nodded lightly, "As you said, great king, everything is ready. As long as you are ready, I can start painting the world. As long as you are willing, you will be the god of the new world."

"

Ashes took a deep look at the World Painter, and suddenly chuckled and said, "Actually... you don't have to do this kind of thing. To create a new world, you need a victim, and that victim will be you... you understand

Yes! This is the mission left for you by that old liar King Gwen. You... there is no need to sacrifice yourself for this, after all Gwen has been killed by me."

The Painter of the World gently shook his head, shook his little feet, showed a sweet smile to Ashes and said, "I understand that the Serpent of the World brought the King of Darkness in order to sacrifice him. Darkness

The king brought me here to sacrifice me, I understand, but apart from these, what else do I have? The great king... Painting the world is the meaning of my existence. If I don’t paint the world, my existence will be meaningless.

It’s meaningless. Do you want to deprive me of the meaning of my existence? You know, I can’t resist you.”

Hui Jin shook his head gently, looked at the Painter and said with a smile, "As long as it doesn't hinder me, I will not force others to do anything, let alone make decisions for others, so... this choice is in your hands.

, you decide for yourself!”

Hearing Huisheng's words, Huishe nodded slightly, "Thank you, great king, you are really a gentle king... If I had to choose, I would still choose Huishe. After all, this is the only thing I can do."

What I want to do is draw a... dark, cold, yet gentle world."

Speaking of this, the Huishe suddenly lowered her head and glanced at Gale's body lying between her and the ashes. A trace of sadness suddenly appeared in her eyes, and then she sniffed slightly and said, "Believe in that world."

, it will be a world where people like Grandpa Gale will no longer feel sadness and despair..."

Saying this, the painter gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, raised his head and looked at Ashes and asked again, "So, great and gentle king, what will your decision be like? You want to become

The gods of the new world?”

Ashes shook his head gently, looked at the World Painter and said lightly, "Just now, I remembered something. When I extinguished the flame for the first time, the new world had actually chosen me, let me

I wanted to become a god in the new world, but I refused. But when the souls of the four kings gathered, I couldn't stop them, so I split the souls of the kings and let them scatter in other worlds. I refused to become a god.

This time, my choice is still the same. I refuse to become a god. In your...cold but warm new world, there should be no need for gods! What do you think?"

The Painter of the World took a deep look at the ashes, and then asked with a serious face, "Let me confirm again, are you sure you want to reject this honor that rightfully belongs to you? You must know that creating a new world requires

It’s not just the abyss, it also requires the power of the four king souls. And now, the abyss and the king soul you control are still entangled in everything. If you don’t become a god, you will...have nothing."

"Yes, I am sure that King Gwen told me before that I will become the god of the new world, and I have no choice. That is because he does not understand me. I will not let anything make the choice for me.

Be it God, be it the world, be it destiny... They think that I will be reluctant to part with everything I have gained, that I will be reluctant to part with this glory and powerful power, but... like I said, they don't understand me!"

After speaking, Ashes threw the body of the Dark King in front of the World Painter. He looked at the little girl in front of him and said lightly, "Come on, let's use him to draw a new world! Whether it's Dark Souls or the Three Worlds,

Whether it's the king's soul or the power of the abyss, if it's useful, I'll give it all to you! I don't need these things anymore! I already have... everything I need."

Having said this, Ashes slowly turned his head and glanced at the sand dune not far away, where he saw the fireproof girl and Clara who had been waiting for him. They were his family and everything he had.

Looking at the gentle gaze of Ashes, the Painter nodded gently, stood up slowly from the throne, came to the body of the Lord of Darkness, looked at the body in front of him, and took a deep breath.

In one breath…

Suddenly, the painter raised his head, looked at the ashes and asked softly, "Can you tell me your name?"

Hearing this question, Hui Jin couldn't help but be startled, and then looked at the painter in confusion and asked, "Why do you ask this?"

"I want to name this new world after you. After all, all this is given by you. I also hope that this new world can be like you...is that okay?"

Ashes was silent for a moment, then gently shook his head and said, "I don't have a name. All I have is a codename called Ashes. But now there is no other Ashes besides me, so just use it.

"

"Thank you, great king, then...I will begin to draw a world called Ashes."

Saying this, the Painter slowly leaned down, half-knelt in front of the body of the Lord of Darkness, stretched out his hand and caressed the hole in the Lord of Darkness' chest...

In an instant, the dark soul and the surging abyss emerged from the body of the King of Darkness and flew into the sky!

At the same time, Hui Jing also felt something pulling at the king soul in his soul and the abyss hidden there!

The scarlet eyes lost their light, and Ash slowly closed his eyes...without any resistance.

In the deepest part of his soul, Hui Jin opened his eyes again. Hui Jin watched, watching everything in this soul space begin to become blurry, and the flames burning deep in his soul also began to extinguish little by little.

…The last first fire, its extinguishing, will be the beginning of a new world.

"My king, it seems...you still refused, just as I thought." A sigh sounded in Ashes' soul. Ashes turned his head and glanced at Flam floating in his soul.

Special, and then chuckled and said, "Yeah~ I refused. I don't want to be a god, and I won't become a god. It's you, why are you still writing here? Haven't you been waiting for this moment?"

Hearing Hui Jin's question, Flammut couldn't help but be startled, and then he smiled bitterly and said, "I am really convinced by you. You can always see through everything. My king... please let me call you like this for the last time."

Hearing this, Hui Jing sneered, then waved his hand gently and said, "There's no need, go ahead! If you go slower, you won't have a chance~"

With a slight nod, Framte spread his wings, turned into a ball of fire, and flew towards the dissolving world, disappearing from Ashes' sight and disappearing into Ashes' soul...

"Is it really okay to just let him leave like this? You should know that no matter how magnificent the tower is, it will fall apart because of a stab from the back..."

Hearing the soft voice coming from his ears, Hui Jin turned his head with a smile and looked at the fire prevention woman who appeared in his soul space and was walking slowly...

Stretching out his hand and hugging the fireproof girl's waist, Hui Jin smiled and said, "No, he has always lived in my soul, so I know very well what he wants. He just... wants to open his heart again."

His own wings are once again soaring in the sky as a dragon. The new world of the World Painter will be an inclusive world. This small wish can still satisfy him. After all, he has no ill intentions, and

It helped us a lot along the way, didn't it?"

After saying this, Ashes suddenly turned his head and looked at the soul world constructed by the King Soul and the Abyss that was dissolving in front of him. He suddenly sighed softly and said, "In this way, I will be alone without the King Soul.

There is no abyss, and there is no power. I am no longer the powerful ashes who can do whatever they want. From now on...I am just an ordinary person..."

"Isn't this exactly what you want? To live as a human being..."

Hearing this, Ashes turned his head, looked at the fireproof girl in his arms and said with a smile, "That's true, but... in this case, we will not have eternal life~"

"To live with you and die with you, this is my wish after everything I have experienced. Your wish has been fulfilled, and so has mine. Is there anything left to regret or be dissatisfied with?"

"I love you, my fireproof girl..."

"I love you too, my ashes..."

…

The abyss serves as the foundation, constructing the framework of the new world, and the souls of the four kings serve as the dye, weaving everything in the new world. The new world, amidst the consumption of all this, slowly unfolds in the hands of the world painter...

Looking at the four colors swaying like rain in the sky, watching this desolate desert slowly receding under the influence of this power, turning into a new world, Clara took a deep breath and slowly turned around.

He turned his head and looked not far away, at the man and woman who were deep in the soul space but whose bodies were hugging each other and kissing each other without knowing when, showing a bright smile...

The consciousness gradually returned from the soul to the body, and Ashes and the Fireproof Girl, who were kissing each other, slowly woke up...

Seeing that Ashes and Fireproof Girl had woken up but were still kissing each other, Clara raised her eyebrows slightly, smiled at Ashes and Fireproof Girl and said, "Have you kissed enough? If you have kissed enough, can we separate?"

?There will be plenty of time for you to kiss each other in the future, right?"

Ashes let go of the fire-proof girl, turned his head and looked at Clara resentfully and said, "Teacher, I still say the same thing, sooner or later, you will be kicked to death by a donkey!"

Rolling her eyes, Clara shrugged helplessly, "Yes, yes, I will be kicked to death sooner or later, but...do you want to look over there?" After saying this, Clara raised her finger and pointed at the Painter not far away.

Disappearing direction…

Ashes turned his head in confusion. The World Painter had disappeared. Also disappearing were the King of Darkness, Gale and the dwarf kings. They all became part of the new world and disappeared without a trace.

Only two things were left, a long sword stuck diagonally on the ground, and a pair of... pitch-black eyes.

Looking at these two things, Ashes couldn't help but smile, turned around and pulled out the fire-transmitting sword, picked up the eyes again, returned to the fire-proof girl and said with a smile, "Take off the mask, it's time to put your

My eyes are returned to you, take a look at this new world!"

The fire-prevention woman raised her hand and took off the mask on her face. The ashes gently placed these pupils in the fire-prevention woman's eyes...

The fireproof girl who regained her eyes raised her head, looked at the new world in front of her, showed a smile and said, "A world called Ashes? I will miss this place."

Hearing this, Ashes raised his eyebrows affectionately, looked at the fireproof girl and said with a smile, "Miss you? How do you know we won't settle in this world?"

The fireproof girl smiled slightly, stretched out her hand and caressed Ash's cheek, and then said lightly, "You won't do this. We still have too many worlds that we haven't seen, right? Maybe when our lives come to an end,

I’ll come back here, but before that…”

Ashes grinned, shrugged slightly, then turned to look at Clara behind him and asked, "Where are you, Teacher?"

Clara raised her eyebrows, looked at Ashes and said with a smile, "I don't feel comfortable letting you two go. You have also lost the power of the king soul, and I may have to take care of you along the way! Not to mention that you are still

My idiot apprentice, isn’t he?”

Looking at the new sky, and then at Clara and the fire-proof girl next to him, Ashes laughed loudly, "Then there is no need to say more! Let's set off! In the days to come, live for freedom and live for yourself.

!As a human being…live!”
Chapter completed!
