Chapter 557 Devoting the Soul
What does it feel like to fall in love with someone?
John wasn't sure, after all, he had never been in love.
He appears on Vormir.
Upon arrival, John saw an old acquaintance, the Red Skull.
He still likes to introduce other people's parents.
John raised his hand to interrupt him, "I want to ask you a question. As a wise man here, I think you should be able to give me an answer."
The Red Skull was curious about what questions someone like John would ask, and he readily agreed.
John asked, "Have you ever fallen in love with anyone?"
Who do you fall in love with?
Red Skull is a careerist, which is a good thing about him.
That is, he never wants to like anyone like those passionate young men.
In other words, everyone is a bargaining chip in his eyes.
He and Steve were polar opposites.
One is more righteous and the other is more evil.
"Love? That's not something people like."
Red Skull replied: "In other words, we will only love ourselves."
"A very special answer, but accurate."
John nodded happily, "You are very selfish, Red Skull."
"Thank you for your compliment, great Witch King, are you ready to sacrifice your loved one?"
After saying that, he silently looked at Satanish beside John.
The ugly and ferocious face made the corners of his mouth twitch slightly.
The taste of Witch King is really unique.
When Satanish heard this, he immediately became vigilant. John was going to sacrifice himself?
John sighed, "What are you thinking about."
Well, Satanish is no fool.
Red Skull is not a good thing either.
It was brought up specifically to prevent John from getting the soul gem.
Although he was cursed, the Red Skull was still keen on doing things that could cause trouble for others.
Return to Vormir's altar again.
John stood there, staring down.
Thanos' body was lying there.
As a Titan, even death would take a lot of time to decompose this powerful body.
"He died of poison." Satanish looked at John, "You killed him."
The whole universe is talking about Thanos disappearing after getting the four Infinity Stones.
However, upon seeing Thanos' body, Satanish knew that John had killed him.
This cosmic overlord, carrying everyone's greed, died quietly in Vormir.
"You have infinity stones on you?" Satanish's greed showed up again.
With infinite gems, there is no need to fear death.
Collect all the gems and he will be the true master of the universe.
Even death cannot scream at him.
"Gem?" John shook his head and said, "You want it?"
Satanish did not hide his greed, he said: "Maybe we can change the transaction method."
"What a coincidence." John said with a grin, "I don't want to change it."
Satanish choked.
John said, "It's time to work your magic."
His previous actions left Satanish with a grudge.
When Satanish heard about using love magic, his first thought was not to make John fall in love with someone.
Every demon is like this. They use transactions as traps, but in fact they send things that are more like punishments.
Satanish used magic to make John fall in love with someone.
he himself.
John felt his heart beat faster.
It was a very strange feeling. He seemed to have had it before, but it was a life that belonged to another person.
A person came to mind.
None other than himself.
He looked at Satanish, who smiled sinisterly and said: "This is your request. Now that it has been fulfilled, you should leave with me."
On the blank contract, new regulations appeared.
And Satanish, who has completed the transaction, can take away John's soul openly.
John fell in love with himself.
He looked at his reflection in the water and suddenly smiled.
"Tell me, where is the end of the soul?"
The strange question left Satanish scratching his head.
The Red Skull looked at John and said to him: "Give up, you, like me, can't love anyone else."
"You are right, the true love can only be yourself. I am very grateful to you, Satanish."
John pointed behind Satanish, "Thank you also for giving me the courage."
The breath of death spreads.
The black mark on John's soul was burning.
It's death.
She found John.
As the destination of death, death possesses all souls.
And Satanis was also alarmed by the coming of death.
John still said calmly: "I have always been worried that there will be others to take the place of my love in my heart."
"Now it seems that I am the only one who deserves to be loved the most."
His words were incomprehensible.
The Red Skull immediately sensed someone entering Vormir.
As a slave to the Soul Stone, he understands the power of death.
As a slave to the Soul Stone, he could not leave Vormir.
John smiled as their hearts raced.
"I think I can finally take that step."
He takes a step forward.
The soul body begins to fall.
This is the summons of the soul stone.
Death came too late.
John fell onto the altar.
His soul disappeared into this universe.
The soul taken away by the soul gem cannot be retrieved even through death.
She turned her attention to Satanish. The wrath and curse of death would make Satanish the most miserable lord of hell.
And John also disappeared from this universe with his self-sacrifice.
...
"Boom."
After the last beat.
The crucible completely lost its movement.
"Yadani."
Old Jovonovich was growing more and more confused.
He murmured the name of Yadani Jovonovich, God's gift to Jovonovich.
Old Jovonovich has been in this state since he saw John's death from the spring.
Suddenly, old Jovonovich stopped mumbling.
With his rickety body, the wolf whined sadly beside him.
It worked, and the fate that old Jovonovich saw befell his grandson.
He sat in a chair while the crows made an ugly cry in the treetops.
Jovonovich's children stopped what they were doing, feeling sad at the same time.
The sleepwalkers in the mind palace witnessed the sacrifice.
He shook his head, "You can't face all this, right?"
Things that even death cannot escape, choose to face them with your soul.
The Witch King also has enemies that he cannot deal with.
He chose to sacrifice and let his soul go to a place where death could not find it.
But no one will know that the Witch King died quietly.
Just like every day, they walked out, bought a breakfast, and went to work after eating.
Critics are full of contradictions between reason and emotion.
He rationally refused to die and emotionally chose sacrifice.
The love blessed by Satanish is nothing more than making him realize himself more clearly.
It's a critic's choice.
but……
Not John Wick's choice.
