Chapter 3 Holy crap! Light Yagami can transform?!
On the day Light Yagami and Ryuk first met, Ryuk said, "Anyone who has used the Death Note shouldn't think about going to heaven or hell after death."
This statement actually has a follow-up.
It's just that it wasn't written out at the beginning.
In the penultimate chapter of the manga, in the last few seconds of his life, Light Yagami recalls that day.
"I know that you can't go to heaven or hell, Ryuk."
"Huh?! What?!"
"You mean to say that there is no such thing as heaven and hell, right?"
"That really surprises me, Yue. I thought humans believed in the existence of Heaven and Hell. Yes, just as you said, no matter what humans did in life, they will disappear into another space after death, a void space. This is true for all humans equally."
Unfortunately—
Light Yagami was able to calmly ask Ryuk if he had come to take away his soul when Ryuk suddenly appeared that day, and expressed this conjecture.
Towards the end of the story.
However, they were completely unable to accept the fact that they were about to die and that everything would be empty after death.
He is no longer the same person he was back then.
As Ryuk said, "How pitiful, Light, this isn't like you at all."
In his final seconds, Light Yagami screamed in despair, "I don't want to die! I don't want to disappear!"
The last words left behind by the mighty Camille of the New World were—"Bastard."
The most ironic thing is the large double-page spread at the end of that chapter.
The right side is all white, with the words "Humanity will die" written on it, along with the two English words "DOG" and "EVIL".
The left side is all black, with the words "After death, all is vanity" written on it, along with the two English words "GOD" and "LIVE".
The four English words are paired up, just with the letter order reversed.
The original author's satire of him was absolutely outrageous.
It can be said that Light Yagami's ending in the Death Note manga was quite undignified.
The anime ending did embellish his character quite a bit.
Because the anime director is a fan of Light Yagami.
However, at this point in time, Light Yagami was clearly not as twisted as he was later.
His final few seconds were much more dignified than in the comics.
……
The countdown passed quickly in the drizzle.
The air in the alley seemed to freeze, with only the monotonous sound of rain hitting the ground repeating itself.
Light Yagami lay on the ground, his body no longer moving.
That soft "regret" also dissipated in the wind.
Xu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
The first mission was completed successfully, without even using a gun.
That's true, Light Yagami is just an ordinary person after all.
Just then, something unexpected happened!
【warn!warn! 】
[Dimensional pollution detected!]
"Crack... Crack..."
A sickeningly loud cracking sound of bones dislocating rang out.
Light Yagami's prone body began to twist and deform in an extremely bizarre way, turning into a deformed monster in the blink of an eye.
Its back is covered with jagged bone spurs.
Its body was elongated, with all four limbs on the ground, making it look like a huge and bizarre arthropod.
"Click".
The sound of a trigger being pulled echoed through the alley.
It was faint, yet clearly audible.
A pure white energy bullet, emitting a faint glow, burst from the barrel!
It instantly pierced through the monster that was actually Light Yagami.
"roar--!"
The monster roared and rolled several times.
Thick, black blood with a foul stench continuously gushed out from the bowl-sized penetrating wound.
But then, it suddenly kicked off, transforming into a black shadow that rushed straight at Xu Yuan, accompanied by a foul stench!
With a "whoosh," the air was instantly torn apart!
At that moment, Xu Yuan's body reacted faster than his brain, instinctively dodging the attack with a quick movement.
Claws slammed against the wall next to him.
"boom--!"
Bricks and stones shattered, and dust flew everywhere.
A deep claw mark was left on the wall.
Xu Yuan was shocked.
He was just an ordinary person.
If you get slapped by a claw, you'll be crippled even if you don't die!
The monster missed its first attack and lunged at him again.
Xu Yuan ducked to avoid it, and the sharp claw wind barely grazed the top of his head, making his scalp tingle.
He rolled away to create distance, gripping the "Walnut Proverb" tightly in his right hand and using his thumb to strike the hammer.
"Buzz..."
A soft buzzing sound of energy rang out!
Inside the gun barrel, pure white light rapidly condensed and compressed, forming an energy bullet that emitted a faint glow.
"roar--!"
That monster had no reason whatsoever.
Even though it had just been injured, it showed no caution whatsoever and roared as it lunged at Xu Yuan again.
But Xu Yuan dared not fire his gun easily.
Because this is the last bullet.
The remaining energy is insufficient to generate a third one.
He was just an ordinary person; even if he knew a little fighting, he couldn't possibly fight this kind of monster hand-to-hand.
If this shot doesn't kill the opponent, he's finished.
But it was precisely in these situations that Xu Yuan became even calmer, completely letting go of his previous tension, anxiety, and fear.
His eyes were fixed on the monster.
The five senses were stimulated to the extreme!
Relying on his unleashed potential, Xu Yuan dodged and weaved through the narrow, dimly lit alley, struggling to hold on.
He thought of going outside the alley.
The narrow alleyway was a disadvantage for him.
Unfortunately, this idea was impractical.
He simply doesn't have the energy for that; he'd die if he got distracted.
Prolonged defense inevitably leads to defeat, and Xu Yuan's injuries began to worsen, with blood splattering everywhere.
Although as time went on, he noticed that the monster was slowing down and its strength was decreasing, after all, it had a through wound the size of a bowl.
But the other party was ultimately far superior to him.
Even if the stalemate continues, the chances of winning seem slim.
Moreover, he has very little room for error.
There is absolutely no room for error.
Just as Xu Yuan was finding it increasingly difficult to hold on, he suddenly noticed that the monster's figure was becoming slightly unsteady.
In that instant, his eyes narrowed.
Should we seize the opportunity and take a risky strike?
Let's wait and see if it's exhausted.
Xu Yuan made a decisive decision.
What if it isn't?
Opportunities are fleeting!
While I'm still in good shape, let's give it our all!
Once he made up his mind, Xu Yuan didn't hesitate any longer and immediately pounced on the monster.
"Bang—!"
The human and the monster finally clashed head-on.
The immense force was like a heavy hammer, slamming into the left side of Xu Yuan's body.
"Ah—!" he suddenly roared.
This was his first time speaking since the start of the battle.
Pain, anger, roar!
The previous composure vanished completely from his eyes!
Instead, there is a chilling madness!
Despite the unimaginable pain, Xu Yuan raised his left arm and clamped it tightly around the monster's arm!
At the same time, his right hand, holding the gun, shot out like lightning!
The dark muzzle of a gun was pressed against its head.
The ancient and ornate flintlock muskets reflected a dim and cold light in the drizzle.
"Click".
The trigger was pulled again.
"Bang--!"
The monster's head exploded like a watermelon.
