The boss's swollen and infinitely expanding body is the root, extending infinitely deep into the cave, connecting to the boundary of darkness while erasing the outline of the boundary.
The circus was built because of the boss.
The movement of the circus is the movement of the boss. The storage, hiding and performance of the circus are all the manifestation of the boss's intention.
This is why even a powerful being like Mr. Rabbit is so respectful in front of the boss.
Art, the crazy and extremely vicious clown who dared to cause trouble in the Cancer Palace, would instinctively restrain himself like an obedient child when talking about his boss.
While recognizing the nature of his boss and the problem with the circus tent, William also noticed something, something that only he could notice now.
"Boss, you are... Abyss!"
“That’s right. The death of the Evil Sun’s eldest son brought the concept of death and plague to the world. It also formed the first extremely dark area in the Old World that was not shrouded by the Evil Sun, as well as the abyss called the Original Tomb.
When I was still young, I witnessed the birth of death and darkness up close by chance. I was deeply attracted and determined to pursue the ultimate darkness for the rest of my life.
Although I admired the eldest son, especially his determination to pursue his own aspirations and go against his father's will,
But I also have my own ideas. The darkness I pursue is not death, but fear.
I succeeded, at an extremely tragic price. If the original tomb is considered the source of the epidemic area rather than the abyss, then I am the "First Abyss" and the only living abyss that can move freely. "
"The First Abyss! It was formed before the war, when the Evil Sun was still alive!"
For a moment, William was filled with respect for his boss.
"William, the reason why I am optimistic about you and even promised you the title of chief in advance is because I saw the potential related to the 'abyss' in you and your inner nature's pursuit of darkness.
Before you showed up, Jaan was the best candidate to take over.
However, Jia En is not ambitious enough and too leisurely, so he is not the best candidate. But you are different. I can see your ambition and feel that you have a more persistent pursuit than me.
So, when I completely lose control or die, the circus will probably be left to you to manage."
"What!?"
William was frightened by this sudden inheritance.
"Don't panic. I know you still have a lot of things to do and a lot of concerns to resolve, but I can still hold on... At least for twenty years, there shouldn't be any big problems."
"Boss... Is there no way to treat your injury?"
"Why don't you feel it yourself and know?"
The boss part embedded in the front end of the main body took the initiative to extend his hand, motioning William to come forward for a handshake-style contact.
The moment their palms touched, William's brain immediately established a connection with the boss, quickly sensing the physical condition that the boss actively displayed.
The signal received made William's eyes widen. He couldn't believe the information received by the epileptic brain.
"this!"
The boss's seemingly huge body, each of its major 'parts' is in a broken state, and is tied, stitched and connected purely by black hair.
It is barely holding together as a whole, but may collapse and be annihilated at any moment.
After William examined the boss for half an hour through his brain, he couldn't even find a complete part. At the same time, he also figured out a problem about the nutrients that Chef Timmy injected into the boss.
After William's analysis, it would be more appropriate to describe it as hormonal drugs, which accelerate hair growth by injecting hormones to maintain the stability of the body.
This is also why there are so many remnant black hair.
"This injury... was it caused by the joint pursuit of the source epidemic area? Or was it caused by the war?"
"It's both, but the war is more important. Although I don't get along with those source areas, my hatred for them is nothing compared to foreign enemies.
I suffered such trauma because I devoted myself to the war.
The defeat also made me realize that I could not fundamentally change the world relying on my own strength, so I began to spread fear, cultivate fear and recruit talents in fear, trying to create an organization that is equivalent to the source of the epidemic area or even superior to the source of the epidemic area.
But I didn’t expect that the damage left in my body would become irreparable, and I probably wouldn’t see the day when the circus would fully mature.”
"Boss... I think there is still a chance. Even if you search the old world and can't find a way to repair it, there might be one in other worlds.
I will definitely go to other worlds in the future, and I will definitely try to find the means of repair from other worlds."
"Other worlds? Hahaha! Coming from your mouth, these words are indeed quite convincing. After all, you are a visitor from the outside world.
I reluctantly believe you, William~ However, all plans must be based on the premise that I may die at any time.
Before I die, I will merge myself with the tent, and even if my consciousness dissipates, the tent will still exist and continue to grow by feeding on fear."
At this point in the chat, the boss smiled, which was very rare.
The handshake was released, and the boss slowly reached out his hand to the surface of William's suit and touched one of the buttons.
"Okay, take off your clothes."
"Huh?" The change happened so quickly that William couldn't react for a moment.
"Strip off your skin and show me your... Abyssal Medium."
"Oh well."
William quickly corrected his thoughts, and with a snap of his fingers, his clothes fell off automatically, revealing his perfect body and the abyss life gate in the center of his abdomen.
The boss was also unceremonious and simply placed his fingers on the surface of the abyss and scraped it gently.
This scratch was terrible. Not only did it make William's whole body itch and tremble constantly,
Even in the depths of the abyss thousands of kilometers away, north of Rat City, the Tenth Abyss itself trembled, as if a tuft of hair was tickling her belly button.
“Fresh, soft and full of life… A very unique abyss, and it has a high compatibility with me, very good~very good.
That's it, William, you can go back to the construction of the theater."
William scratched his head at this time and asked tentatively:
"Boss, if I finish all the preliminary work for the theater and Price takes over as deputy director, can I take another long vacation
There are some very troublesome things to deal with in the human world. Not only does it involve the survival of the organization I belong to, but it also involves the leather factory and a former epidemic area organization that should have been exterminated - the Blood People. "
When the boss heard that William was going to take another leave, his facial hair was extremely tense and he was obviously very unhappy.
But when he heard the word "blood people", his tightly stretched hair formed an extremely terrifying empty face.
“It seems that the story about blood refugees moving into the leather factory is true
All right, as long as the preliminary work for the theater is completely finished, I will make an exception and grant you another month's leave, but you must put on a decent performance when you come back, and the dishes at the demon feast must be more amazing than last time.
Also, if you come into contact with the Blood People when dealing with humans, be sure to let fear spread in their hearts before killing them all."
"Okay, boss. Even if you don't tell me, I will kill those despicable guys."
