On the other side, on the rooftop of Spectre Inc.

“hah… I’m surprised that you can hold on for so long…” V1- War God’s laughter sounded prideful and at ease. At that moment, he was floating in the air and his whole body was radiating energy.

“I on the other hand, am not that surprised.” Feng Bujue at that moment was forced to the edge of the roof, his face, neck and arms had many wounds on them.

“Just what kind of person you are… that you will be able to give a response like that…” V1- War God continued, “From the analysis of your facial expression, you do not look like you’re bluffing, and you’re not the kind of person who cannot see the difference in power level between you and your opponent, therefore… this is not out of ignorance.” He scoffed. “Hmph… is this what you humans called… being stubborn?”

“Aiz… you just have some upper hand in close quarter combat…” Feng Bujue said with dead eyes and an easy tone, “And you think you have already won?”

!!

“Is that not enough?” V1- War God said, “You have used a continuous skill that improve your physique and an active fighting skill…” He was naturally referring to Body Enhancement Spell and Flying Dragon Fist, “as well as Geppo that you have learned from R2- Sharp Gale to barely block off my attack.” He opened his arms and shook his head. “And I was merely fighting normally.”

“I know.” Feng Bujue answered matter-of-factly. “I have already told you earlier, I have already read most of your data, I know basically everything about you…” He raised his right arm to point at his enemy. “you are the strongest Anomaly, your code is written for the sake of fighting… even in this scenario world, when your power is limited, your physiology is still far better than mine…”

“physiology is just the general term.” V1- War God interrupted. “It includes strength, speed, adaptability, self-recovery and the most basic and the most important… body intensity and explosive energy.” He said as he gripped his fist and swung it forward. The wind gathered power. It struck power like lightning. A power blow brushed past Brother Jue’s left shoulder and caused the ground under him to tremor.

“See that? I can easily do the things that you need a skill to accomplish.” V1- War God continued. “The body intensity of my body is about 10 times of yours, do you understand what that mean? That is essentially a difference between wood and metal. Furthermore, you have no advantage in size and speed. Hmph… to use an analogy, your fight with me is like a fight between a wooden stick and a buzz saw.” He titled his head and shrugged. “Even if I just stand here and allow you to attack me, you have to use your skill or some item to cause some damage to me, and that… will cause ‘exhaustion’ on you.” He raised his right hand and pointed at his face with his thumb. “In contrary, I am… always in my optimum state. The energy that I lost in the fight basically has recovered once it was depleted; I can heal damage that would have been lethal to you in an instant; even if I am amputated, I can regenerate my limbs by pouring energy into the wound…” He was getting ahead of himself, if he had a tail, it would be wagging right about now. “Do you know why my code name is V? Because it represent Victory and War God is the name most suitable for me.” At this point, V1- War God waved his arm to point, “Feng Bujue, I really do not understand… why ROOT would give up so much to place her trust in you. I only know that… if I tear up your data here, it can solve many problem. If you are the instigator that causes the split in Origin, then… I shall be the messiah that will vanquish you!”

The howling wind brought with it a temporary silence. Feng Bujue stood and then said after a while. “Are you done?”

“Yes.” V1- War God replied.

“Don’t you think you have wasted your time on too many words?” Brother Jue asked again.

“I just want you to be clear about the reason why you are going to die.” V1- War God answered.

“Then you could have just said that last sentence?” Feng Bujue uttered coldly, “Why the long essay preceding it? Are you trying to lie to yourself?”

“Laughable…” V1- War God argued, “Who is really lying to themselves here…”

“Of course, it’s you.” Feng Bujue said as his expression changed. Black data flowed rapidly through his pupils. “you have already sensed the anomaly on me, therefore you said those things… the reasons, well, one is for bluffing, two is to build up a mental defence, to provide confidence for yourself, to cool down the fear.”

“Ha! Ha ha ha ha ha ha…” V1- War God guffawed with the pride of a winner. “Is something wrong with your brain? I am the perfect Original! Why would I feel fear?”

“Of course you would, you just do not know it.” Feng Bujue said calmly, “Your creator is very clever. He understands that no matter how powerful one is physically, without a ‘heart of fear’ one cannot become the top fighter… For example, if you do not have even the concept of ‘the fear of losing to others’ it will be very unbeneficial to your growth.” He paused. “Therefore, your incredibly talented creator has given you something similar to fear, it is this string of code that perhaps you do not even perceive has compelled you to respond the way you did…”

At this point, Feng Bujue was suddenly reminded of something else. He suddenly laughed and said to himself. “Hah… so this is the meaning of ‘choice’… the ‘choice’ formed from endless codes, and the ‘destiny’ weaved through endless choices… could the truth of the digital world be…”

“bunch of nonsense!” At this point, V1- War God finally lost his cool. Perhaps Feng Bujue’s words had touched on his nerves or he already planned to make his move, in any case… V1 chose to roar and charged forward to kill.

But…

Sha Sha—Sha Sha—

In that instant, a strange noise crawled into V1- War God’s ears and it startled him. “What is this…”

“A ha ha ha ha…” At the same second, an eerie laugh rang out, “Anomaly, why don’t I come and play with you…” Following Freddy’s grating voice, the scenery before V1- War God’s eyes started to twst…

The sky turned into a bloody whirlpool and thick fog hug in the air. A large metallic claw reached out from the edge of the roof and swiped at V1- War God.
