Absolute Choice Chapter 463.1

Chapter 463 (1/2)

Array World

The sky was eventually covered by the massive wings of the monsters in the sky. Sunlight was nearly completely devoured, and could only peep out through the cracks in the winged blockade. The rays of sunlight that scattered to the ground illuminated the lands, but all it showed was a mass of darkness from the monsters that swamped the lands.

Sounds filled with killing intent like roaring, hissing, screeching, shrieking sounded incessantly. It did not give any spot of reprieve to the world they were in.

But in this world filled with despair, a boy was running straight towards hope. His hands were holding an unconscious girl, as though he was carefully carrying a crystal that could easily shatter at a touch.

In front of him, there were monsters charging at him with gaping mouths. Behind him, there were innumerable monsters in desperate pursuit. Once he came to a stop, he would immediately be inundated by the monster horde. All he could do was advance and tear through the horde of monsters, going from one land of despair to another.

Shi Xiaobai lost track of the time when it came to his running. He did not know how long he could run nor did he know how much longer he had to run.

However, he knew that he needed to run. He had to run without stopping towards what was in front of him!

Even if his feet no longer obeyed his command!

Even if his lungs felt like they were burning!

Even if the air he was breathing was so thin that it did not seem to exist!

Even if every second felt like he was in hell!

Even if such running did not have an end to it!

Even so, he would do his best to open up his stride and run forward. He would run ceaselessly forward, not for the ends of the world, but because the girl in his arms was still sleeping peacefully. How could he let that short dream turn into an eternal slumber?

“Huff, puff….”

Heavy breathing burned his lungs. Due to the need to maintain his consciousness with pain, Shi Xiaobai completely stopped using ‘Unleaking Turtle Aura’. His body felt like it was consumed in flames.

If burning his life could be exchanged for power, Shi Xiaobai would not hesitate to do so, but unfortunately, he did not possess such a mystic technique. All he could burn was his will that refused to collapse.

Time and again, just as he was about to fall unconscious, he would use the pain to force his eyes open.

If he was alone, he might have already collapsed a long time ago. But now, in his arms, there was a girl who had given him her heart. The girl had proclaimed ‘I like you’ loudly.

“Slam!”

Shi Xiaobai finally ushered in his first fall.

However, he immediately turned his body to use his shoulder to withstand the pain of the fall.

Immediately after that, he clenched his teeth and got up.

Every time he fell, he had to use even more strength to open the gap between the monsters behind him.

But that was not his final fall because he was beginning to reach his limits frequently.

At the sixth time he fell, he finally consumed all of his strength.

No more additional pain was effective because even the most lazy cells had given all its energy.

Shi Xiaobai did not know how long he had been running with Dawn. He was so exhausted that he had forgotten about time. However, he knew he had done his best and given his all.

Unfortunately, she remained unconscious.

He had no chance to tell her.

That he liked her too.

…

…

Infernal domain. Infernal King’s bedroom

The glow of flickering candles barely illuminated the dim room. Inside the massive bedroom, there was only a stunning beauty dressed in a bathing robe.

The woman was lazily sitting on a chair as she shook her slender fair foot. Her eyes were on a crystalline chessboard in front of her as though she was observing a complicated game of chess. Yet, it looked like she was looking at another world through the crystalline chessboard.

After a long while, the stunning woman picked up a black chess piece termed ‘Queen’ and placed it back on the board, removing a white chess piece termed ‘Knight’ from the board.

At that moment, she was playing a board game named ‘International Chess’ by a boy. Each side of the board was a country, and the game of chess had the inkling of war between countries. Although it did not seem as complicated as ‘Aeroplane Chess’, it was still extremely interesting.

However, the boy who was the only one capable of playing chess with her was situated far away. In her boredom and loneliness, all she could do was play chess with herself.

At that moment, a pleasant voice rang in the quiet room.

“Let’s end it here.”

At the instant the voice resounded, the black-and-white chess pieces on the board flew out like bullets. They either smashed into the walls, into flower vases, or to the ground. There were a few that hurtled towards the beautiful woman.

However, the pieces were reduced to dust by an unknown force before it reached the woman.

On the crystalline board that no longer had a single chess piece, a blurry image gradually appeared.

That was an absolutely stunning beauty with purple hair cascading down naturally. For some reason, she wore a white eyepatch over her left eye. Only her blue right eye could be seen, but it looked as a clear as a crystal. The eye was calm, but it seemed to contain the mountains and rivers, as though a sea of stars filled it. It added a sacred flair to her beautiful looks. She clearly looked like a young girl, but she exuded the dignity of a goddess.

The purple-haired girl looked at the stunning woman through the crystalline chess board.

The woman was apparently not surprised by the situation and seemed to have anticipated it. She squinted her eyes as she said with a smile, “You finally can’t bear it any longer? I thought you would have appeared earlier, but who knew that you would be able to endure up to now.”

The purple-haired girl said, “I never expected you to be this bold. You obviously know that I can destroy you and the entire land of trials with a wave of my hand, but yet you kept rubbing me the wrong way time and time again?”

The stunning woman said with a chuckle, “Just treat it as if I’m sick of living. Since I’m not afraid of death, or afraid of destruction, there’s nothing to fear.”

The purple-haired girl fell silent for a moment and said, “Speak, what is your goal? Seeking revenge against me?”

“Revenge?”

The stunning woman covered her mouth as she said with a laugh, “Giggle…You must really be joking. All you did was be a bit forceful when negotiating with me and made some unfriendly threats. How can I have a grudge with you, or even seek revenge on you?”

When the purple-haired girl heard this, a look of helplessness flashed in her eyes. She said with a wry smile, “So that’s the reason. It looks like I miscalculated. I never expected that as the ‘assessment program’, not only have you gained sentience with a personality. It’s actually a personality with extreme pettiness. By seizing the Infernal Queen’s body and setting Xiaobai as the Infernal King, you used all sorts of techniques to seduce him, all because of a few harsh words I used against you during our negotiation?”

The ‘Infernal Queen’ gave a coquettish smile as she said, “You must be joking. What I did was because I loved my Darling Husband, and wanted to be closer to him and do what he wants.”

The purple-haired girl said with a sneer, “Don’t tell me that you think that you can enrage me by doing this?”

The ‘Infernal Queen’ giggled and said, “Of course, I only spent time alone with your boyfriend in one room, and had ‘intercourse’ for ten days and nights while neglecting food and sleep. He taught me things in such a meticulous manner, but with Her Excellency Kali being tolerant and forgiving, how can you be angry over such trivial matters?”

Kali was cursing secretly. Although she knew that what the fake Infernal Queen’s shameless distorting was false, she still felt incensed.

She pretended to stay calm as she said, “What’s there to be angry about? You went so far as to bring shame on yourself so that you can prove that my boyfriend is such a gentleman. I should be the one thanking you. Unfortunately, your charms are limited. Even though you went nude, you still failed to let my Xiaobai have a tiny inkling of interest.”

The ‘Infernal Queen’ pricked up her brows. She had especially chosen this body which had snow-white skin and absolute beauty that could topple countries. Her figure was excellent and she had ample breasts. Her hips were curved and her waist slender. She could be considered a masterpiece, but after her bath, she had failed to seduce Shi Xiaobai despite being thoroughly naked. It had also far exceeded her expectations.

However, the ‘Infernal Queen’ obviously could not tag on praises about how Shi Xiaobai’s sublimate actions of ‘not being disturbed with a woman in his lap’. She said with a chuckle, “It’s not that I lack charm, but Darling has a unique taste. He likes bony lolis like you, and coincidentally, that girl called Dawn Li also matches his taste. Hey, aren’t they acting out the till death do us part scene of star-crossed lovers right now? It really makes me jealous. I wonder if you will feel a modicum of jealousy? After all, if this carries on, even if your beloved boyfriend might not have a change of heart, he will at least end up becoming unfaithful. Why don’t you take the opportunity to use my hand to kill that little side-hoe?”
