435 The Furious Yomi-san is Also So Alluring (First Update) Rolling and playing cute to beg for monthly tickets!!!! ... While Lin Luo and Arthur were talking, Isayama Yomi and Tsuchimiya Kagura had been listening nearby.

They couldn't understand what the two were discussing; there were too many specialized terms that left them completely bewildered. However, Isayama Yomi was not stupid, nor was she naturally oblivious; she was capable of learning by analogy. If she didn't understand something, she could convert the concept into something she could understand.

Lin Luo and Arthur weren't speaking in Classical Chinese, nor were they using Martian or M78 Nebula language. It was just that their conversation was saturated with jargon: things like God War, Walkers, Proxy Gods, Heart Sutras, Hosts, and so on. Aside from these specific terms, the rest of the meaning was easily grasped.

So, all Isayama Yomi needed to do was translate those specialized terms into concepts she could comprehend. For example, God War became a competition, Walkers became the contestants, Proxy Gods became the administrators, the Heart Sutra was the contestant's proof of entry, and the World Heart was the crucial item in the match... By doing this, she could clearly piece together the meaning of their dialogue.

There was a very special competition held across various different worlds as the arenas. Each Proxy God had a Walker participating, and these Walkers grew stronger by seizing the World Hearts of the Hosts. Any Host whose World Heart was taken would die.

Regardless of whether it was within the scope of the competition or outside of it, if Walkers encountered each other, they would engage in life-or-death combat. They would also hunt the World Heart Hosts by their own methods, though sometimes they ended up being counter-killed. Taking this world as an example, although it wasn't one of the designated arenas, three Walkers had entered it.

Furthermore, one Walker, in their pursuit of killing the World Heart Host, had taken control of all the vengeful spirits in this world and launched relentless attacks on that Host... This was the conclusion Isayama Yomi reached after the conceptual swap. And those so-called Hosts?

That was her and Tsuchimiya Kagura! This realization made Isayama Yomi furious, almost to the point of unbearable rage. Just for such a trivial matter—just to kill the two of them, just to make themselves stronger—they had thrown the entire world into chaos, resulting in countless deaths, including their friends, family, comrades, and tens of thousands of people completely unconnected to this conflict.

This kind of thing... was absolutely unforgivable! Isayama Yomi clenched her teeth, her furious eyes nearly spewing fire.

What exactly did those Walkers take this world and the humans in it for? To play with this world and its inhabitants so wantonly... At that moment, her hatred for the Walkers reached its historical peak.

She didn't even spare Lin Luo and Arthur a pleasant expression because those two were also Walkers! Lin Luo could understand Yomi’s questioning. If he were in their shoes, he might have been even angrier.

However, Arthur clearly hadn't noticed the immense, suppressed anger radiating from her. Instead, he foolishly blurted out, "Sister-in-law!" The way those two words tumbled out of his mouth, not only did it cause Lin Luo to lose his composure while secretly delighted, even Isayama Yomi was stunned, and the aggressive momentum of her questioning immediately deflated by half. "Y-you, what nonsense are you spouting?

What sister-in-law?!" Isayama Yomi was both mortified and irritated. If the man hadn't been the savior of both her and Kagura, those nonsensical words alone would have been enough to provoke a violent response from her. "Huh?

Have you and Big Brother not signed the pact yet?" Arthur was instantly taken aback. But after the words were out, he realized his mistake. He could still ascertain the status of his Heart Sutra whether they had signed or not, so he scratched his head and chuckled sheepishly, "My apologies.

I just assumed you had already signed with Big Brother, my future sister-in-law." "..." Lin Luo knew then. This guy's intelligence was probably as low as his name was complicated—a true nine—otherwise, he couldn't possibly utter such idiotic things. "I already told you not to call me sister-in-law!" Isayama Yomi's tone dropped an octave, barely restraining the rage bubbling inside her as she stated gravely, "What exactly is this God War you were discussing?

Are all Walkers people who would slaughter innocent humans just to gain their own strength?!" "Uh!" Although Arthur was somewhat dense, he understood the meaning this time and felt the anger in Yomi’s voice. He quickly explained, "It's not like that! Sister...

please don't misunderstand. While there certainly are some wicked individuals among the Walkers, most of them abide by the rules of the God War and avoid causing massive destruction to the world they currently inhabit. It’s just that our luck was terrible; we encountered a Walker who ignores all rules.

In fact, that fellow, Youming, is infamous among the Walkers; many are dissatisfied with his behavior, and some Walkers have even tried to corner and kill him." The God War had explicitly forbidden actions, and some actions that fell within the rules but weren't strictly prohibited. What Youming was currently doing belonged to the latter category. Avoiding destructive harm to the Walker's current world was a spoken rule; meaning, Walkers could choose to adhere to it or not.

But since it was stated by a Proxy God, it held weight even as a verbal agreement. Most Walkers would try to follow it unless they faced a genuine life-or-death situation; otherwise, they wouldn't cause extensive damage to that world. After all, the Walkers weren't entirely devoid of feeling.

Hunting Hosts was simply because the World Heart could accelerate their power growth. In those instance worlds, Walkers sometimes encountered people who resonated with them. Once friendships were formed, they wouldn't treat that world like a game.

That kind of mass slaughter involving thousands or tens of thousands of beings was something most Walkers wouldn't undertake. Youming, however, was the exception. His Heart Sutra derived power directly from death; the more people he killed, the stronger he became.

Therefore, every time he entered a new world, he caused the deaths of tens of thousands of creatures. Although Youming had never participated in the formal God War, there was one time he entered a world alongside several other Walkers. That world possessed immense levels of mystery, so some Walkers temporarily formed an alliance there to boost their strength, even establishing relatively good relations with the local population.

However, Youming's ceaseless slaughter not only caused those Walkers to return empty-handed, but all their friends in that world were killed too. Because of this, those Walkers hated Youming to the bone, and some had already decided to gang up and eliminate him if they ever got the chance. If one were to assign a measure of good and evil among the Walkers, Lin Luo and Arthur would belong to the benevolent faction, while Dark King and some others would be neutral.

Figures like Evil King and Youming would fall into the evil faction... However, even the Evil King wouldn't engage in this kind of world-destroying massacre because it held no meaning for him. Among all Walkers, only Youming acted with such reckless abandon; even the Dark King couldn't stand him and sought an opportunity to strike him down.

"I see..." After hearing Arthur's explanation, Isayama Yomi felt a slight sense of relief, murmuring apologetically, "I'm sorry. I judged too broadly." Water and fire, hot and cold, light and darkness—everything was opposition. Humans had distinctions between good and evil.

Since the Walkers originated from humanity, it was natural that their quality varied. She understood this principle, but she had been so furious moments before that she had unfairly condemned every single Walker. "No, you are right to see the Walkers as enemies," Although Arthur waved his hands repeatedly signaling her not to apologize, Lin Luo nodded and stated firmly, "Indeed, there are some good people among the Walkers, and perhaps even more who are neutral.

But that is only when they face ordinary people. Hosts are different. Most people are selfish.

Even if they aren't inherently bad, to survive in the God War, they won't show mercy to the Hosts. A Walker like Arthur, who desperately protects his Host, existing at all is a miracle." "Hehe, because I am a Knight! Protecting the weak is my sacred duty," Arthur grinned foolishly like an idiot while scratching his head upon hearing Lin Luo's praise.

"I understand. From your conversation, I gleaned some information: for the Walkers, the World Heart inside the Host is the tool they use to grow stronger. Therefore, Walkers do not view Hosts as equal human beings." Isayama Yomi's tone was calm, her expression composed.

This viewpoint was applicable to herself as well; for instance, when she exorcised vengeful spirits, she didn't treat them with the same equality as ordinary humans. So, her anger wasn't entirely justified—the strong prey on the weak; this was the oldest law of nature. It was simply their fate to be placed in the role of prey from the start.

However, having said that, her gaze intensely fixed on Lin Luo. "Since you say it's a miracle for Arthur to protect a Host, why are you also protecting a Host? You are a Walker too, aren't you?" "The reason for that..." "Big Brother is different from other Walkers," Before Lin Luo could explain, Arthur spoke loudly as if defending his idol, "Other Walkers rely on harvesting World Hearts to increase their power, but Big Brother grows stronger by protecting his Host and forming a contract with the Host.

Therefore, Big Brother is a Walker who exists for the Host." Truly a Knight; the words were spoken with such straightforward conviction... Lin Luo inwardly admired him. Idiots had their own form of strength; if it were him, he wouldn't be able to say something so righteously without feeling awkward.

"A contract? What is that?" Another specialized term from the God War appeared, and Isayama Yomi couldn't help but ask. "All Walkers advance their level using the World Heart; this applies to every single Walker.

But the method differs..." Subsequently, Arthur detailed to Isayama Yomi and Tsuchimiya Kagura the differences between the Book of Contracts and other Heart Sutras. When he finished speaking, both young women were left stunned.
