Who hid My Corpse!

At first, Rocky thought he had misheard.

Someone who had seen Visas in person, is this a joke?

Visas lived a thousand years ago, how could anyone live that long... Hmm, wait?

Rocky immediately looked at the Envoy of the Netherworld.

Could it be that this guy...

"Ah, Visas, oh Visas." The Envoy of the Netherworld chuckled softly, his voice hollow and weak, like the cold wind blowing over a grave, "A person both familiar and strange."

A person both familiar and strange, not a name both familiar and strange.

Rocky realized that this guy had indeed seen Visas, he had indeed lived... oh no, had indeed died a thousand years.

What level of demonic creature is this? No wonder the Prison Director's attitude towards him was different from others, this guy's age was greater than everyone else's combined.

Thinking of this, Rocky couldn't help but twitch his eyes twice, thinking that this journey was truly an eye-opener.

"What does the esteemed Prison Director want to know?" asked the Envoy of the Netherworld.

"Tell us what you know of Visas," the Prison Director asked, "not the records of history books, nor unsubstantiated rumors, but the real, tangible past."

"Hehe, esteemed Prison Director, even if you wanted me to speak of history books and rumors, I wouldn't be able to say much." The Envoy of the Netherworld smiled and pointed at his head, "Because the Netherworld does not have those things, everything we experience is engraved in our souls and we attain Eternal Life in the Lord's realm. So we don't need special historians, because each of us is history."

Each of us is history.

Is this what the followers of the Netherworld are?

"Let me think where to begin?" The Envoy of the Netherworld leaned back, recalling as he began to speak, "I know you later generations refer to Visas as the 'God Slayer', but that description isn't exactly accurate, because he didn't just slay gods."

"What else then?"

"All living beings."

The tent fell silent quickly, Ina couldn't help but glance at the Bai Wei behind her, but Bai Wei remained leisurely, as if it was none of his business.

"All living beings... what does that mean?" After a brief silence, Rocky asked, "Including humans?"

"Of course." The Envoy of the Netherworld said, "Not just humans, any individual that entered his field of vision, which could be called a living being, would become his target for extermination."

"Why is that?" Ina couldn't help but ask, "Is there a reason?"

"The true reason only he knows." The Envoy of the Netherworld laughed, "I cannot speculate on his psychology, in fact until the moment he was annihilated, we never knew where he came from or what his true aims were. I only know that from the moment he was born, he began his slaughter, and his primary target for slaughter was the Divine Race."

"...Divine Race?"

The Envoy of the Netherworld looked at Ina and smiled, "You don't know of the Divine Race's existence?"

Ina shook her head: "Sorry, during the upheaval half a year ago, all the Archbishops of Lyra sacrificed themselves, which made us lose many things, not just mechanical technology but also lots of inherited information."

"I see, that indeed was a disaster." The Envoy of the Netherworld nodded slightly, comforting, "But you needn't be too sad, although you lost everything, gaining death is the most blissful thing."

Ina: "..."

After comforting Ina, the Envoy of the Netherworld continued: "The Churches with complete heritages should know that a thousand years ago, the gods were a large race. Back then, they didn't seem so distant from humans as they do now, their interactions with humans were closer than they are now, so they seemed more like the rulers of this world than they do now, until the appearance of Visas."

"No one knows where Visas came from, nor why he possessed such great power. People only know he launched a one-sided war, or rather slaughter, on the Divine Race. The gods rapidly fell in a short time, and after the Divine Country shattered, the pieces that fell were enough to light up the sky... yes, that was the scene back then. And it was at that time that I saw Visas, although it was only a distant glance, the moment he beheaded a god, I can't forget to this day."

The atmosphere in the tent turned oppressive once more; Bai Wei noticed Ina couldn't help but look at him again, so he shrugged helplessly.

"It sounds like..." the Double Instrument Knight, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke slowly, as if contemplating how to avoid using desecrating words, "he appeared to mark the end of the god era."

"If his targets had always been gods, that could indeed be assumed." The Envoy of the Netherworld nodded slightly, "But as I just mentioned, nearing the extinction of the gods, Visas shifted his target from the divine to all living beings. Imagine, an existence that gods couldn't contend with, how would other living beings resist? And thus began a grander slaughter, everything withered, and the world rapidly fell towards the abyss of destruction."

After another silence, the Double Instrument Knight spoke again, "It seems, Visas wasn't targeting the Divine Race, but like he was restarting the world, just choosing the most powerful Divine Race as the initial target."
