The Reader and Protagonist Definitely Have to be in True Love

Chapter 8 - Protagonist: ... Come here.

“Become god?” Xiu’s lips tilted up as if he wanted to smile, but his pale, gloomy face made it look like a sneer. “Do you think … I can become god?”

Not only do I believe that, but it will certainly happen. Young man, you don’t know it but in another world there is an author1 who wrote “Mixed Blood.”

Du Ze found the right words to say after a few minutes of thinking: “… I have seen it.”

He really has seen it with his own two eyes, when he read the “Mixed Blood” novel.

“Your eyes are very beautiful, prophet.”

Xiu’s hoarse voice is slightly mocking. Du Ze instantly felt tragic. In “Mixed Blood,” there is such a thing as a Prophet who can predict the future. But these Prophets all have one extremely important characteristic – they are all blind. They can see the future and the price they pay for that power is not being able to see the present. Du Ze’s plan to disguise his foreknowledge of events as prophecy has hit a roadblock. Now the suspicion in Xiu’s eyes is getting stronger and stronger …

Countless explanatory words flowed into Du Ze’s brain but the fool founds the social barrier too hard to overcome and choked on the words, standing there silently. However, when he saw the black-robed Lich raise his death scythe in a defensive position, Du Ze said, seemingly calm, “Try me and you will know.”

The hand that held the sickle paused, and Xiu stared at Du Ze. The silly youth with a cold face was ready to play, trying to divert the protagonist’s m*rderous attention.

He looked at the death scythe and remembered that in “Mixed Blood,” the protagonist was rescued by the spirit beast. Afterwards, he began to study the metal body that he previously received in the Magic Tower. The piece of metal is indeed a magical artifact. It can absorb other weapons and take on their shape and abilities. This is a weapon that goes against heaven’s will and allows the protagonist to save money! With this item, he can go from level 0 to max without changing weapons. What’s more, the artifact will change to match the protagonist’s current form – the death scythe for the Lich, the sword for the Human, the bow for the Elf, the knife for the Demon, the staff for the Angel, the iron claw for the Beastkin, the spear for the Dragon, and the hammer for the Gnome – it’s awesome! Whether it’s single player or an online game, the most expensive thing to buy is the weapon for the main character, right? When Du Xe first saw it, Du Ze wanted to applaud.

Xiu named it Qian Bian. Right now it can take on two forms, the death scythe and Louis’ Magic Codex. In a fantasy setting like this one, a Magic Codex is very important for a Necromancer and embodies the essence of their knowledge. The Lich Louis wrote down all of his knowledge, experience, and research in this Magic Codex. Using this book, the protagonist learned the Necromancer’s skills and the way out of the Lost Land.

The Lost Land is just a legend for most people and no one knew that the Lich Louis had emerged from that place into the Chaos continent. From the Codex, Xiu found out that this continent is divided into two sides: the positive and the negative. The Lost Land connects both sides. That is why inside it one can see the marvelous sight of two skies, one above and one below. Louis came from the opposite side of this continent through the Lost Land, then launched the scourge of his undead army.

When Xiu opened the Codex after following Du Ze’s instructions, the protagonist immediately started looking at Du Ze differently. Du Ze seized the chance to sell himself. “I know a lot, you can use me.”

The black-robed Lich was silent for a long time. Du Ze’s face was still impassive, but inside he was crying out: protagonist, don’t hesitate, ah! You have to believe that you will become an absolute tyrant who makes everyone weep and wail.
