Even upon death, a soul may not rest."</p> <p>Volume 5 Synopsis:</p> <p>"Surnamed Ye, if you had a choice between being a hero or a demon lord, which would you choose? Naturally, you can also choose to be a villager A or B if you wanted to."</p> <p>"What kind of question is that? Hmm."</p> <p>Contemplating for a bit, Ye Chen answers—</p> <p>"I guess, the hero? Since he always wins in the end?"</p> <p>"Hero, is it?"</p> <p>"And you, surnamed Long?"</p> <p>"I think, the role of the hero—is a role that should only be played by a masochist."</p> <p>"The hell?

Maybe, I'm just someone who has reached that point?"</p> <p>………"You're right in saying that even if this world goes up into flames, I'd still be drinking away at my leisure. Why bother to care for a world that is completely foreign to me? The people who I had cared for, they aren't here; hence, I see very little purpose in getting myself invested into this environment."………The 46th prince of the Hong Xiao Empire was born between the emperor and the 114th concubine.</p> <p>He was born on a moonlit night, and yet, since his eyes were blind, his majesty—the emperor decided to name him Bujian Yue.</p> <p>"Did you know—that the more fearful a prey is, the tastier it is? At least to me, since I enjoy chewing on my food to savor the flavor."</p> <p>"…?"</p> <p>Enlarging its stature, the black serpent abruptly snaps its head forward, and swallows the palace maid whole.</p> <p>Leaving a bite mark on the ground, the black serpent begins to chew, as the sound of meat and bones being pulverized comes from its maw.</p> <p>And eventually, the black serpent swallows.</p> <p>Volume 7 Synopsis:</p> <p>"So what? I naturally know that my actions have brought misfortune onto your village, and for that…- Honestly, I can't be bothered to apologize to you all. I'll admit to my misdeeds, but that's as far as I'm willing to go. To me, those misdeeds have brought me closer to my goal; hence, committing them was worthwhile."</p> <p>Deity, divinity, god, if there ever comes a day in which I become something that doesn't belong to the mortal world, I would simply standby, and watch slowly, as the world beneath my feet turns foreign. Behind me… There probably won't be anyone, or anything…</p> <p>………</p> <p>"You… You've accompanied me for more than a hundred years now. At this point, you've probably already developed a conscience, have you not?"</p> <p>…</p> <p>"Thank you… For your company…"</p> <p>Helplessly, I watched as you fell into the bottomless crevice, as the sound of hideous cries—from monsters in human skin went off behind me.</p> <p>Qing Yi, a person like you…-? If you have a next life, you'll probably end up as an extremely selfish person, right?</p> <p>………</p> <p>"There's a saying that having a large heart's eye is what makes a man a great character. Although you're blind, the fact that you're able to think about the well-beings of the commoners—it means that you've a heart's eye that is as large as the ocean. It's something to be proud of."</p> <p>"…"</p> <p>Taking another sip of tea, Bujian Yue thought—</p> <p>(Actually, my heart's eye is as narrow and small as a fingernail.)</p> <p>…</p> <p>(A man with over 90 offspring, and more than 70 wives, if his character isn't rotten, that would be a miracle.)</p>
