Siren Blade

Chapter 196 The Siren and the Siren

While the siren was changing clothes in the fitting room, I told Jade Bird about my next plan.

Commonly speaking, my behavior of speaking in private cannot be hidden from Siren's ears, because although she seems to be attached to that body now, she still lives in my mind.However, I feel that she seems to be completely concentrating on it now. As long as I carefully gather my mental activities as she once reminded me, she should not be able to hear what I am saying now.

And my plan, the surprise I want to give her, simply put, is to take her to the unnamed mountain to watch the fireworks in full bloom in the scenic spot.

I want to let her know that even in that cold and gloomy mountain forest, there are beautiful scenes to be seen.

Why does the Siren's dream always show the mountain forest, because that is the default scene of the dream.But why does the default scene of dreams have to be that kind of unsightly place instead of other warmer and brighter places?Although the sirens never answered me directly, I knew the truth well.

The siren's dream is, after all, my dream.Because my mind is still trapped in that depraved night of insane intercourse with humanoids, that's why my dreams always manifest in that form.How much solitary time did the Sirens spend there?Even if I often go to meet and talk to her in the dream when I am free, it is far from being able to compare with the time she is alone.

Although she was able to modify my dream into other scenes, it was not a natural form after all, and even she herself could not have imagined that the place could exude temperament other than darkness and loneliness.After a long time, even she will find it difficult to continue, and what she will see after she is tired will still be the cold and gloomy mountain forest.

But as long as she can see the gorgeous fireworks in a similar place, the mountain forest in that dream will definitely become a little warmer.

And that's the little gift I want to give her.

However - this is just my original plan.

Looking at her in the real world, I inevitably had other thoughts.

"So you think so." Qingniao suddenly smiled after hearing my plan, "You want to improve her living conditions. Well, since you, the owner of the dream, believe so, the dream will also be It will definitely change as you wish. I believe she will be very happy when she goes back."

She looked at my expression while talking, and slowly became puzzled, "You don't seem to be looking forward to it... Is there something wrong with the plan?"

"It's really a bit of an accident." I sorted out my thoughts, and then expressed my true thoughts, "I think...why does she have to go back?"

Hearing this, she was stunned for two or three seconds before she realized, "Li Duo, you don't mean to..."

"Although I didn't completely kill Bloodbite, I still looted almost all of her spiritual body fragments. That's a spiritual fragment that is close to the weight of an entire super main-level warlock. As long as I have those, it is enough for Siren It has been continuously manifested in the outside world for quite a long time." I said, "And even if she leaves me alone, she should still be able to exert the power of the main force. Even if there are some unexpected changes, the stock of spirit fragments will bottom out , she can also hunt demons to supplement it. There is absolutely no need to go back to that monotonous and shabby nightmare, and there is no need to accompany me to one battlefield after another to go through life and death."

"However, if you do that, you will lose almost all your strength..." Qingniao suddenly became silent while talking.

Just then, the door of the fitting room opened.Siren changed into a playful and cute children's dress with blue as the main tone, but her expression was a little uneasy, as if she was not very used to dressing herself up.Her gaze was locked on me at the first moment, and then she walked over quickly and took my hand, which was a sigh of relief.

Then, she took my hand and took half a step back, and asked eagerly, "How...how?"

"It looks good." I'm not good at complimenting each other's clothes, so I can only give such a brief evaluation.

She seemed to be in a better mood.

But Qingniao quickly sorted out his expression and said with a smile, "Let's try some other sets."

After a long time, Siren tried on several other sets of clothes that Qingniao had personally selected, and finally I paid for them all.I used very little of the salary and mission bonuses that the Security Bureau gave me before, and I had already saved an astonishingly large amount of money without knowing it.And considering that those clothes are not very suitable for mountain climbing besides being beautiful, I first stored them in the container model.

Siren changed back to the original white student uniform, and said in a low voice: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't need to buy it. I've seen it, and I can transform it myself."

"How can the one I transformed be the same as the one given to me by the other party?" Blue Bird said with a smile, "It's my turn to give you a gift. What do you want? Don't be polite, just tell me."

The siren glanced at me first, and then said to the blue bird: "I want to ask you something... is that okay?"

"What's the matter?" Blue Bird asked curiously.

The siren let go of my hand for a while, leaned close to the blue bird and stood on tiptoe to whisper, and the latter bent down to listen cooperatively.The voice was so soft that even I couldn't hear the content clearly.

After a while, the blue bird looked at me thoughtfully, then nodded, couldn't help laughing again, and said to the siren: "I understand, I will help you with this matter."

"What are you talking about? Is it about me?" I asked.

"Yes, but I will keep it a secret from you for the time being." Blue Bird said, "Also, I want to borrow the siren for a while, is that okay?"

"I have no objection..." While speaking, I also looked at Siren, and seeing her nodding silently, I continued, "Then I'll wait for you here?"

"Okay. We'll be back soon." Blue Bird said as he held Siren's little hand.

The two quickly and temporarily disappeared into the crowd, and came back half an hour later, saying that the matter had been settled, and the details should be kept secret from me for the time being.

However, although Qingniao tried her best to conceal it, I still read an unconcealable sigh from her face.

Although I don't know what the siren is asking for, Aoto probably also told the siren about my plan while helping.

It is impossible for the blue bird to agree with me to let the siren go free.Because the Siren and the Siren Blade are strongly bound, once the Siren is independent, it is equivalent to the independence of the Siren Blade, and my power will immediately be reduced to the lowest level in the hidden world.Because of this, Jade Bird would test the Siren's attitude on the sidelines before, worrying that the Siren would fly away with the Siren Blade.

As far as the results are concerned, it seems that the opinions of the two did not reach an agreement.

We continued to go shopping in the scenic spot, eating and drinking along the way.Sirens don't need to eat, but I bought her some food anyway.She is holding my hand with her left hand and the cotton candy in her right hand. The colorful street scene attracts her gaze, and her eyes seem to be shining.

Sometimes, she is also attracted by the games at the roadside stalls.When she saw some people gathered in front of the stall to play ring games, she couldn't help but turned her head, raised her face and asked me, "Can I go over there and have a look?"

"Not only to watch, but also to play." I said.

She didn't refuse, but it was too much to bully the stall owner to play the hoop game with her ability, so she just took some cheap prizes.Even when throwing the hoop, she didn't forget to grab my hand, as if she was worried that I would run away suddenly.After playing the games here, I also went back and let her play the games she had seen before but refrained from playing.She moved her body happily, challenging one thing after another that she had never touched before.

I think, there is no doubt that she must want to stay here, in this warm world.

Occasionally, someone can be seen setting off fireworks in the distance, but there is still a while before the unified display.Qingniao looked at the phone and said, "It's almost time for the fireworks to go off, let's go up the mountain first."

We left the bustling streets and walked up the unnamed mountain.

The noisy sound was getting farther and farther away, and there were no other people around, and there were only lonely mountain roads and woods.

"Is there a place on the mountain to watch fireworks?" Siren asked.

"Yes, there is, like a viewing platform or something. But this time we are going to go to a relatively remote forest to watch the fireworks in the scenic spot." As he said, Qingniao seemed to think about it again, and then continued, "But in the The view in the woods is easily blocked, so you have to find an open space with a good view. If you look for it now, it may be too late. I will go to the sky to see if there is a suitable place, and I will call you when I find it.”

After speaking, she turned into a thunderbolt and ascended to the sky, leaving me and the siren on the ground.

I vaguely noticed that she seemed to be deliberately creating opportunities for me and the Siren to be alone, but she should be very clear about my next plan.I thought she would always monitor me, so that I would not have the opportunity to say to the siren that I hope the other party stays in the real world, or further create a chance for me to talk to me alone, so as to persuade me to give up that plan.Why is she doing this?

No matter what, the words I am going to say will not change.I looked at the siren beside me, and she looked at the night sky, then at the surrounding woods, and said to me, "It feels like a dream."

"This place really looks like that dream," I said.

"It's not just this place." She said with a sigh, "Going shopping together before was like a very happy dream. I couldn't tell which was reality and which was a dream... I was even a little scared."

"There's no need to be afraid, this is reality. You can stay here as long as you want," I said.

"Always?" She seemed to hear my implication.

"Siren, stay here." I said it directly, "Don't change back, and don't go back to that dream again."

"Do you want me to use this appearance as your weapon to continue fighting for you?" she asked.

"Not fighting for me," I said. "You can fight for yourself later, and you can live for yourself."

Hearing this, she was silent for a few seconds, and then asked: "So, what are you going to do? If you don't have me and the Siren Blade, how will you fight for yourself in the future?"

"I will figure out how to fight on my own. You don't have to risk your life to accompany me." I said.

However, there are obvious flaws in my proposal.It's actually easy for me to notice this flaw, but if I notice it, I will naturally think of more.Perhaps it was because I was unconsciously thinking about the later things that I unconsciously ignored this obvious flaw.

But she directly pointed it out, "But if you die, I will die. If you must fight, I will be safest only by your side all the time."

I was dumbfounded, and then I came to the conclusion that if I didn't want to put her in danger of fighting, there was only one way, and that was to keep myself out of the fight.

And staying away from the battle means staying away from the front line, from Qianye and Baiju.

At the same time, it also means giving up the hand of "it".

will i give upIs it possible for me to do this?

If it was only me, I would do everything without hesitation.Even if I bet my life on the gambling table with the lowest winning rate, I can still do it without blinking an eye.

However, if the siren's life is also kidnapped, things are another matter.I am willing to bet everything on this path, but not anyone else.

To say a thousand words and ten thousand words, "it" is already dead, and the only thing left in the world is that one hand.Now the Security Bureau has decided to destroy the eve of the night, no matter how skilled Bai Ju is with that hand, he can't fight against the behemoth of the Security Bureau.And the reason why I insist on taking it back with my own hands is more for myself.

But the Siren is different, she is a living companion who is extremely important to me, and I can sacrifice her no matter what.

The siren watched me quietly.

I felt that my heart was being tortured like never before.

This is my bad news, because in the past, I always avoided the real choice.This is how indecisive, how selfish, how despicable.In words, I always talk about how to value Siren, but when I put it into practice, I always bring Siren to a dangerous place, forcing her to experience the same life and death dilemma as me.Even I am not aware of my own contradictions, because I unconsciously try to muddle through.

But now that I've realized it, I can no longer allow myself not to choose.

A dead "it" or a living siren.

I……
