I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 1666: 22.52 Third Red Star - Capture

It was a few hours before the God of Destruction caught the ancient godsʼ souls and started targeting him. It was just after Hei Anjing entered the main cityʼs marketplace in his human form. As planned, Hei Anjing acted like a naive, real master that just successfully escaped from his home and was looking for something fun in the marketplace. Actually, as soon as Hei Anjing entered the marketplace, a lot of eyes had fallen on him. He was not only young. He is also fearless and seems a bit innocent. Especially for a situation like this, where an unknown danger is everywhere.

At a restaurant somewhere in the city.

People instantly notice the arrival of the young master wearing ordinary clothes but obviously looking like someone from an elite family. Such a fair-skinned, beautiful young master. Looking around as if finding everything in the street is something unique, marveling at how the lives of the commoners are completely different from his life.

At a certain table in the restaurant, a few nobles were watching the God of Destruction.

”Young, and beautiful. It should be my turn now, right?”

”Look how old my current vessel is. Iʼm dying. Give this vessel to me.”

”No, there are too many other vessels around. Change your old one for now. But this exquisite vessel must be mine. Look how enticing the scent this child has.”

”Is this chaos energy? How can a mortal still be sane with his kind of energy in him?”

”No, look how white his skin is. I am the only woman in the group. Give this body to me. Even if itʼs a maleʼs body, I can definitely serve you guys well~”

”Letʼs catch him first and investigate. We can debate later to whom this body will be given.”

Standing in front of a Tanghulu seller, the beautiful young master couldnʼt decide what to buy between a strawberry and an apple. The seller of Tanghulu felt teasing the young man especially when he couldnʼt decide to buy one.

”Young master~ have you decided yet?”

”N-No, not yet. Iʼm confused why the strawberry one has three pieces while the apple has only one but the same price,” Hei Anjing mumbles. ”Is it because strawberries are smaller in size? But how can one be sure that three strawberries are enough for one apple?”

The Tanghulu seller was smiling at the young man. In the eyes of the adults, the current god of destruction was a little cute.

ʼSo cute~ this young manʼs eyes are so clear, obviously someone born from a good family. Even though he is wearing a pair of commoner clothes, his demeanor and grace cannot be covered at all.ʼ

ʼIs he lost? Maybe he escaped his house? But the outside world is dangerous and he didnʼt even have guards with him.ʼ

The seller of tanghulu couldnʼt help but worry, ”Young master, you should go home. I will give you both this strawberry tanghulu and apple tanghulu. Itʼs dangerous outside.”

Hei Anjing, who was craving sweets, accepted the two sticks of fruit tanghulu. He first bit the strawberry tanghulu, and his tongue was suddenly assaulted with sourness and finally sweetness. It was the kind of combination that was both acceptable and delicious.

”But uncle, I just escaped from home. I want to play first before going home~” said Hei Anjing.

The Tanghulu seller asked, ”Do you not have guards with you? If you are in danger, find a knight on patrol or a police officer. Stay away from rotten people.”

”I will, kind uncle. I will give you this. How about you go home for today?” The God of Destruction said as he gave a gold coin to the seller of Tanghulu.

It was a real gold coin, and the tanghulu seller felt that the items he was selling had disappeared together with the young master from before. Even though he was terrified, he bowed down in whatever direction and went home as he was asked to. After all, his Tanghulus was not even worth a few silver coins, and with this gold coin, he and his family can stay at home for a whole year at least. He and his family can wait at home until the current situation passes.

As for Hei Anjing, he appeared in another store. But unlike the tanghulu seller from before, the other stores are trying to rip him off, which he needed the most to act like a proud young master.

He exclaims, ”A gold coin for a cup of juice?! Who are you trying to kid around?! Hmp!”

The God of Destruction walks away as he finally notices the eyes staring at him, but he pretends not to notice. He was still annoyed that someone had tried to rip him off when suddenly his sleeves were caught by someone. When he turned around, he saw a few beggars gathering near his feet.

”Young master, please give us some food~”

”We are hungry. Please pity us~”

”Food~ Give us some, please~”

Hei Anjing acted as if panicking as his clothes were grabbed by these unknown people and covered his nose in disgust. ”Who are you people? Let go of me!”

From the other side, a group of nobles blocked Hei Anjing after getting the edge of his clothes caught by the hand of the beggar out of the latterʼs hand. The one in front of him seems like an old elite gentleman, but his eyes are creepy, as if he wanted to eat him alive. Behind him were people from the noble clans wearing expensive clothes and all. The scene looks like an elder catching a young master who escaped from home. Thatʼs why the police and the knight in patrol stayed at the side and watched for now.

”Let go of the child. Itʼs time for him to go home!”

”Who are you, old man?” said Hei Anjing as he dodged the first hand that reached out to grab him.

The fake smile on the old manʼs face twitched and finally grabbed Hei Anjingʼs wrist.

”Finally, a new vessel~”

The other people around Hei Anjing started shouting, including the beggars from the other side.

”I want that body too~”

”Thereʼs a scent of chaos energy inside of him. I want that body!”

”Hehe~ first come, first serve,” said the old man holding the wrist of the God of Destruction.

Suddenly, the innocent and panicking expression of the young master faded, and an extreme ecstatic and mischievous smile appeared on his beautiful face. A wall of ice surrounded the crowd that gathered around Hei Anjing, and everyone was caught off guard.

Under everyoneʼs eyes, the black hair and sapphire eyes of a young man change in appearance. His short black hair grew longer and turned white; even the blue eyes within those phoenix-shaped eyes turned silver as if the moon were peering on you.

They heard a playful but alluring voice. A voice no one could not recognize. ”Finally, all of you come out~”

”Dammit! Itʼs a trap! Run!”

Once these words were spoken, the people around Hei Anjing tried to escape, but their shadows had grabbed their ankles, preventing them from leaving. A black figure appeared behind the mermaid king and turned into the face of the former general, hugging the waist of his beloved. It was the God of Void.

Ye Xiajie said, ”You cannot escape from here!”

AGHHH~

Something fell from the sky and broke the hand holding the wrist of Hei Anjing. It was the World Eater who was watching the fun from a distance and finally entered the net where the prey were all caught together.

”This is a huge haul~,” said An Shizhe.

The God of Destruction said, ”Ice domain, ascend!”

The moment he entered, Hei Anjing enclosed the whole area into an ice barrier. The humans outside had seen everything from the beginning to the end and even heard the whole conversation, especially when they heard the voices of the nobles and the beggars around the young master didnʼt fit their faces. All of them had hoarse and eerie voices. Itʼs similar to the voice on the surveillance camera from those homicide cases.

Moreover, the words of these people fight for the young man as if seeing him as just a mere vessel. They shiver just thinking about how these unknown beings gather before them without them even noticing that these are the culprits of those killings. Only then did they understand what was happening. These people are not humans, and the one who baited them all to come out was the mermaid king with the help of the former general and that inhuman man.

This only means that the young lady, the former general, and the inhuman man caught before were most likely not human as well. They had been helping them catch the killers all this time, and here they thought that the general had betrayed humanity and deliberated on him. They destroyed his reputation, making them sinners that can be compared to these killers.

Hei Anjing said, ”Kill them all. Leave nothing alive!”

”Yes sir~”

The two men made a move as they started killing the human inside the ice dome while the mermaid king stood at the center of everything, calm and expressionless. He pulled another stick of tanghulu, and itʼs a grape this time. Ignoring the gory scene surrounding him, he happily ate his snack. The human outside watches dazed outside the dome.

Among the crowd was the kind tanghulu seller who was looking curiously and saw his products; the young master had been taken away. Only then did he recognize that the kind young master before was the mermaid king, who was feared by everyone in the starweb. But for him, this mermaid king is the savior of his family. That gold coin was enough for his family not to worry about food for a whole year.

The Tanghulu seller mumbles, ”So the mermaid king was not the enemy of our human race.”

His voice was not too loud, but everyone around him heard his words. The humans finally believe that the mermaid king was not their enemy, and it was they who kept offending him, angering him, and using his brethren as tools. He was kind enough not to directly kill them like those unknown beings they feared for them, saving them once again.
