My Stubborn Soul Card Follower-Chapter 209 - 207: Relax, You’re Not Dead Yet, You’ll Die Without Pain (6K Triple-Length - )
What's the difference between a bodhisattva who makes others suffer to practice Buddhism and a "holy mother" who fulfills her sense of morality by making others pay the price?
Shen Sui never discriminates against ascetics or holy mothers, because they are indeed willing to pay a price for their beliefs.
In a sense, Vivian is also a person with a holy mother heart. She always likes to help some suffering animals and children, but she never demands others to conform to her values.
As for why it's in a certain sense... it's because Vivian's kindness is only reserved for the weak. For those extraordinaries who have strength but not the morality to match it, Vivian generally chooses to directly eliminate them, leaving not even ashes behind.
Suffering stared at Shen Sui.
Suddenly, an overwhelming fear filled its heart.
This was not the power of that evil god with the same name, but an instinct of its body.
But... why do I feel fear?
Ding!
A crisp sound appeared in the empty Duel Realm.
Shen Sui glanced at the Dueling Device, and his originally bored expression suddenly became interesting.
"Fuck!"
He couldn't help but curse out loud.
"Sorry." Then Suffering saw this young man clasp his hands together, smiling sincerely as he apologized.
What's he saying? Suffering was somewhat puzzled.
Yet in the next moment, a mysterious power suddenly enveloped this space. Instantly, as soon as this power touched it, it rapidly spread along Suffering's body, engulfing everything including the body of the Suffering Bodhisattva.
Then, something that terrified Suffering happened.
It could no longer use any power.
It could confirm that its power still existed, yet all ways to express the power of Suffering were without exception unusable.
It naturally did not know that this was a realm dropped by an unlucky old elder named Bargas in some world.
In the War God's realm, all magic is prohibited, and all battles must be conducted through raw, physical combat! Of course, Shen Sui had refined this realm a bit, turning it into a restriction realm that enveloped others and prohibited them from using magic.
Before Suffering could understand the situation, it noticed the flow of its life.
What?
What exactly happened?
"Relax, it hasn't yet gone." Shen Sui's friendly voice sounded in Suffering's ear.
"It's just that a not too big, not too small wound has been opened on your eye, one that will never heal," Shen Sui said with a smile. "Since you are the Suffering Bodhisattva, experiencing suffering on behalf of believers should be among your duties, right? Just stay here and slowly feel your life slipping away."
At the level of strength of the Suffering Bodhisattva, physical and mental pain could no longer shake a powerful soul.
Shen Sui was also too lazy to engage in such acts of torment.
He simply opened a wound on the Suffering Bodhisattva, allowing it to clearly feel its power ebbing away bit by bit. As the power ebbed away, it would fall from the fifteenth to the fourteenth, then thirteenth, twelfth level... until it reached zero, and then it would permanently die.
The Suffering Bodhisattva let out a furious roar.
Because it clearly sensed that the power it had accumulated over millions of years was rapidly ebbing away.
Yet it could not stop any of it.
Resentment, anger, fear...
Countless emotions rushed to the Suffering Bodhisattva.
At this moment, if Shen Sui had similar abilities to the Suffering Bodhisattva, he could probably harvest a great deal of power.
Unfortunately, Shen Sui did not, and even if he did, he would not be interested in such power. Even if he absorbed all of the Suffering Bodhisattva's power, it wouldn't move his experience bar an inch.
The Suffering Bodhisattva died.
Died very peacefully.
At least that's what Shen Sui thought, after all, it was so loudly thanking him when it passed.
With the death of Suffering, its avatar also turned into a pile of mush.
"I have urgent matters." Shen Sui said to the void, "I'll leave the cleanup to you."
Shen Sui turned his head, just about to leave, when he noticed something like a card floating down from the sky.
He raised his hand and caught the card.

Shen Sui glanced at the card in his hand, his expression shifted, and he felt a sense of gratitude from the space.
He shook his head with a smile, raised his hand, and tore the [Suffering Bodhisattva·Saint Salomoni] in his hand into pieces.
"I don't need such a card." Shen Sui casually scattered the pieces of the card into the air, "Building my bliss upon the suffering of others... haha, using such a card would disgust me."
Then, Shen Sui turned and left.
The pieces of the card decomposed into photons in the air.
The wound that was opened by the Suffering Bodhisattva rapidly healed at an extraordinary speed.
