World’s End: My Keyword is One More Than Others

Du Ge stopped his skill, and the three men's confessions came to an abrupt halt.

Raymond's bow was aimed at John, his face livid with rage. "You damned bastard, you actually did it with Alice... Pah! I'll kill you..."

His martial soul fused with the longbow on his back, and he suddenly released the bowstring.

The arrow shot out like a meteor, heading straight for John's heart.

The net that had been blocking the white ibis's escape route was suddenly retracted by John, transforming into a shield that blocked Raymond's arrow. "Raymond, listen to my explanation."

"Explain it to the devils in hell!"

Raymond, blinded by rage, drew his bow again and fired a volley of arrows at John.

No man could tolerate being so blatantly cuckolded, especially when it happened right under his nose. It was utterly disgusting...

This wasn't just about being cuckolded; it was worse than having someone defecate on his head.

Watching the two fight, Evan's eyes were cold. He had never imagined that his two closest companions had done such outrageous things behind his back. Although he had once urinated in Raymond's food, compared to them, his conscience was as pure as a lamb's.

However, he wasn't particularly angry. After all these years, he no longer cared about the love he had at fifteen.

Moreover.

Alice didn't seem like the goddess he had once imagined; she was more like a whore who would sleep with anyone.

Part of Evan's attention was on Du Ge, who was watching the spectacle from a tree.

Clearly.

The source of all these strange events was this white ibis with a human martial soul.

A white ibis that could tempt people into confessing their sins had immense value.

It was well known that demonic beasts weren't very intelligent.

When they had been capturing the white ibis earlier, it hadn't shown any great strength. Even after stirring up their conflicts, it hadn't taken the opportunity to escape but instead stayed to watch the drama, proving its low intelligence.

So, it was possible to catch this bird.

If those two idiots could fight each other to exhaustion, he could take the white ibis for himself...

Evan was waiting for an opportunity.

...

Damn!

A smart one...

While Evan was observing Du Ge, Du Ge, through the white ibis, was observing Evan, who hadn't joined the fight. He saw through Evan's thoughts but couldn't speak to provoke them.

If only he had possessed a parrot instead...

No!

There was still a connection.

The skill allowed him to remotely control the split mental power; it didn't say he couldn't switch bodies after possession!

A few young people with three-star martial souls couldn't possibly be stronger than his third senior brother from the Seven Stars Sect during the Qi Refining Stage, right?

Let's try!

Once this thought emerged, Du Ge couldn't hold back any longer.

The white ibis's body was too inconvenient; he needed to verify what it was like to possess a human. After all, these guys had provoked him first...

If the possession failed, he could always send a large amount of mental power from his main body to silence them.

Let's do it.

Judgment!

Ignoring the two young men fighting fiercely, Du Ge once again used Judgment on Evan, who was watching the spectacle.

Evan shuddered. "Raymond, I was jealous that Alice liked you. Since I was fifteen, I've been urinating in your food..."

Again?

Evan's eyes showed terror as he controlled his black cat martial soul to pounce on the white ibis. His eyes turned into vertical slits, confessing while coordinating with his martial soul to block the white ibis's escape route.

Unlike magicians, the impartial skill didn't affect a warrior's performance...

The two fighters stopped, stunned, and looked at Evan, who was confessing again.

"Two dogs fight, a third dog benefits." Though unable to speak, the white ibis expressed its meaning. Waves formed under the small Sea God on its head, spelling out a line of text.

"Damn, our gold coins." Seeing the text, Raymond snapped out of it. He drew his bow and shot at Evan. "Bastard, making me eat your piss, I'll kill you..."

John's net silently moved towards Evan's black cat.

In the face of profit, there were no friends...

Evan had no choice but to fight back.

Damn!

He was dragged into it after all.

Seeing his two companions blinded by greed, Evan suddenly realized that the white ibis wasn't stupid but incredibly smart. If this continued, all three of them would be severely injured, and none of them would catch the white ibis!

He wanted to explain, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he said, "John, I must confess to you too. The fifty gold coins you lost weren't stolen by a thief; I took them..."

"You damned thief, that was my tuition fee for the teacher." John's eyes instantly filled with blood. "Web of Spiders!"

As soon as he finished speaking.

His net split into four, blocking the black cat's escape from all angles.

Raymond took the opportunity to shoot an arrow at the black cat.

The black cat let out a miserable cry, and Evan spat out a mouthful of blood.

Seven-orifice touch.

Du Ge seized the opportunity and used the long-prepared seven-orifice touch on John, who was using the net.

With less than two thousand mental power, he couldn't control much of the Power of Poseidon.

But this world was filled with elemental power, and with the martial soul's support, it was quicker to condense a few water elements than in other worlds.

Seven or eight meters was within the range of the seven-orifice touch.

Poof!

John, who was focused on capturing Evan, didn't guard against Du Ge's sneak attack.

Of course, he couldn't guard against it.

Warriors in this world relied on their martial souls and had no defense for their bodies.

Water filled all his orifices, and John, terrified, clawed at his throat, trying to cough out the water that had entered his windpipe, but to no avail.

Severely injured, he lost control of his martial soul.

The black cat broke free and scratched his chest, blood seeping through his clothes...

The seven-orifice touch was subtle, and Raymond didn't see Du Ge's interference. Blinded by hatred and greed, he lost the ability to think. He placed two arrows on his bow. "Hahaha, you both will die... uh!"

A short scream.

The seven-orifice touch also wrapped around his body, and Raymond's face showed fear. He instinctively turned his bow towards the white ibis.

But it was too late.

The martial soul atop the white ibis's head pounced at Evan, the black cat's owner.

With a pop, it entered his body.

Du Ge's perspective switched to Evan's.

He first looked at the white ibis on the tree. The white ibis stood motionless, as if dead.

Poof!

Poof!

Two arrows hit the white ibis.

The white ibis fell straight from the tree...

John, avenged, was too weak to draw his bow again.

He looked at Evan mockingly, as if to say, even if you survive, what will you gain?

But when the same Sea God martial soul appeared above Evan's head, John's eyes widened. He reached for his bow, but his near-suffocated body had no strength left...

Du Ge looked at the two, hesitated for a moment, and withdrew the water from their orifices, pulling them back from the brink of death.

John reached for his bow again but saw a water ball floating before him. Evan smiled at him. "John, are you sure you want to fight me?"

John's hand froze. He looked at Evan's martial soul above his head and asked, "Who are you?"

"Sea God," Du Ge said after a moment of silence.

"Sea God?" John and Raymond were both stunned.

"An evil demon from another realm defeated me, scattering my divine essence. Now, he walks the world pretending to be my emissary. I barely escaped, but my divine power is almost gone. I had to possess the white ibis to find a way to reclaim my position as Sea God. But you fools wanted to sell me for money. How ridiculous."

Du Ge looked at them coldly, his eyes full of contempt. "Even without my divine essence, I am still a noble god, not someone you fools can covet."

John and Raymond exchanged glances, looking at their friend Evan, now possessed by the Sea God, unsure of what to say.

John, who had slept with his friend's woman, was quick-witted. He knelt on the ground with a thud. "Please forgive us, Sea God."

"Please forgive us, Sea God," Raymond followed suit, kneeling as well.

Having come back from the brink of death and seeing the Sea God martial soul transfer from the white ibis to Evan, they didn't doubt Du Ge's story.

Besides, who else in the world had a Sea God martial soul and could control water?

"Stand up! You are lucky I didn't kill you just now, so I won't kill you now." Du Ge looked at them and said indifferently, "But I need your help."

"Us?" John looked at Du Ge in confusion. "Sea God, we are just three-star martial souls. How can we help you?"

"Help me find the scattered fragments of my divine essence. Once I regain my power and defeat the impostor, I will elevate your soul power, making you my divine envoys," Du Ge said.

"Sea God, but we are just three-star martial souls. We can't participate in your war with the evil god," Raymond said, troubled.

"The evil god's followers are everywhere. We need to act in secret, without anyone knowing. I'll give you specific instructions. There might be other fragments with my consciousness..."

Evan's original black cat martial soul hadn't disappeared after being possessed. Du Ge looked at the weakened black cat, retracted the Sea God martial soul, and said, "During this time, we must avoid the evil god's surveillance. No one can know I'm still alive. From now on, I am still your friend Evan. We need to secretly organize a resistance against the evil god..."
