[Comprehensive] living to death

What is the so-called "symbiosis contract" all about?

Quite simply, one side is the giver and the other side is the taker. The "giver" is the person who initiates the contract. The effect is that no matter who has a longer actual lifespan, the lifespan of the giver shall prevail after the contract.If the giver has an infinite lifespan, theoretically both parties will share longevity.If one party dies, the other party cannot live alone.

Seems like a very unfair contract to the giver.In order to make up for this, the symbiotic contract also stipulates that the giver can terminate the contract at any time without any influence.But if the accepting party wants to terminate the contract, it will suffer an unbearable backlash.In short, he will die on the spot the moment the contract is terminated.

"That's what I said, but in fact, the recipient still has no obligation. As long as you obediently do nothing, you can get a long life. Who would want to cancel the contract? And if you live impatiently , Just cancel the contract and die, just clean and leave no trace, it's perfect!"

As the sun sets, Mingyue lies alone by the window, talking to herself in the face of the sunset.Or, say, stand-up comedy.No way, it's boring.There is no TV, internet, or computer here, so there is really nothing for entertainment alone.Mingyue couldn't help but reflect: Why didn't you feel bored before?

Oh, I remembered, there is a big white-haired dog who always sticks to her side.

She sighed again, looking even more sad.

"Am I really abandoned by my dear lady?" She asked herself resentfully, "Oh, Juliet! Don't go! I, Ye Liangchen... Oh no, I, Romeo, love you!"

The windows are paneled with carved panes, and delicate light and shadow fall on the wooden table.Mingyue stood with her chin on the table, and saw the cracks spreading thinly on the old desk; a little smell of old wood lingered at the tip of her nose, it was hard to tell whether it was the aroma or the stale smell.Looking outside in a blink of an eye, half of the blood-red sunset is coming.The afterglow covered the sky, resplendent and extravagant, but from this extravagant extravagance, there was a desolate and melancholy fascination.

"If I knew it earlier, I would add some conditions to the contract." Mingyue was bored, and began to think about it, "For example, instant messaging, or at least, if one party is in danger or injured, the other party has telepathy. Right...Huh?"

She sat up straight with a "stab" and her expression became tense. "Is it in danger? Speaking of which, this is Orwell's hometown after all, it is not impossible if there are some ten thousand-year-old monsters..." She was frightened by herself, slapped the table and stood up, "No way! I'm going to save my dear!"

Just leave.Mingyue tied up her long hair with a rubber band, and rushed out the door as soon as she stepped on her shoes.In her imagination, she should be valiant and high-spirited, with a golden crown on her head, auspicious clouds on her feet, and a long knife on her back. At the very moment, she should "wow" appear on the stage, brave and invincible, sweeping thousands of troops, and turning the tide. Rescuing the lover in the tiger's mouth creates a drama that can sing songs and tears, shake the world and weep ghosts and gods...

Unexpectedly, before rushing to the courtyard, the gate opened by itself.No, it should be said that it was slapped away.The gates of this kind of courtyard are all solid wood, and one door weighs seventy to eighty kilograms, but now it was violently thrown against the wall, and even the door hinge was half pulled down.

It was Ibaraki standing at the door.He was wearing ghost armor, his long hair was in a mess, and most of the ghost horns that he was proud of in the morning had been broken off.The blood that was so red and black went down from the top of his head, completely soaking his entire body.His eyes were full of blackness, and his face was covered with splashes of blood, but it didn't hinder his wanton, carefree, extremely violent, and extremely arrogant smile at all.

A strong stench instantly filled the courtyard.

Mingyue was stunned.

"you you……"

Ibaraki strode up to her, making the smell of blood in front of her even stronger.In an instant, he seemed to be transformed into a monster general who killed countless people again, dragging the bloody abyss from hell to the world.

He is laughing.

"Mingyue, I killed that monster!"

He is laughing.Laugh provocatively.The laughter went from low to arrogant, and the muscle twitch even tore the blood scab on his face.The messy hair was entangled with the dried blood, and pressed tightly against his face; the pair of golden monster eyes occupied by black energy locked her firmly, and the vertical pupils were terrifyingly sharp.

"You..." Mingyue's voice trembled slightly, and her body also trembled slightly, "Why do you..."

"Hahahaha-"

As if pleased by her trembling, the monster general laughed even more; crazy, hearty, and shattered the stagnant air in the courtyard.

"Mingyue! You said that the old rule is to stop when you click-hahahaha!" Ibaraki laughed out of breath, with an almost grim expression, "Say 'stop when you click' to a monster? No, what I need is killing !Blood! Immortality!"

He bared his fangs sinisterly.The snow-white fangs were also mottled with blood. "I killed him and ate him, but—"

"--so what?"

Tick, tick...

Fresh blood dripped down his arm that was almost torn off again.There are also his flanks, two three-finger-wide hollows run straight through his body, fuzzy flesh and blood mixed with scraps of viscera, and the red fruit and fruit are exposed to the air.

"—You are really crazy!!"

With all his strength, the only thing he could yell out was this sentence.Immediately, Mingyue grabbed his clothes and dragged him into the house, then pressed him on the couch, took out the talisman paper, and spent several talismans on his body to stop the bleeding first, and then began to clean and treat.

She was so distressed that she was about to cry.In order not to cry, she could only remain silent for a while, all the distress and anger were compressed into the brimming aura in her hand, covering his horrific wound.

Such a serious injury...so serious!If he wasn't a monster... no, if he wasn't powerful enough, he would definitely have died!

Mingyue lowered her head and said nothing.The seriously injured monster didn't care, and leaned on the couch nonchalantly.Even though his face was pale and he was gasping for breath from the serious injury and blood loss, he didn't care whether his injury was serious, let alone whether it hurt or not; he just stared stubbornly at the human in front of him, with a ferocious expression and a grin on the corner of his mouth.

"Mingyue, are you angry? I killed the monsters here, so that makes you dissatisfied?"

Therapy also creates pain, and no matter how hard the therapist tries to be gentle, it is still unavoidable.But Ibaraki only thought that she did it on purpose, because she wanted to punish him in anger, so she made him feel more pain.Therefore, his smile became even darker.

Mingyue gritted her teeth.After a long time, she only uttered two words.

"To shut up."

The monster laughed again.He even brushed her hand away and stood up straight!The wound that had stopped bleeding just now was torn open by his rude actions, and blood gushed out again.

"Don't force yourself if you don't like it! Mingyue, seeing the way you force yourself makes my heart ache!" He said so, but the disdainful look is another matter entirely.

Mingyue maintained the previous posture, kneeling on the ground with her head down, motionless.

"Shut up."

However, her voice was so low that Ibaraki couldn't hear it at all.He even grabbed his left arm unscrupulously, almost tearing off the crumbling arm.

"This kind of injury is not important at all. In the past, I have had half of my body cut off, and opponents have been bitten into pieces of flesh by me."

The primitive, cruel, and bloody battles made the generals of the Yaozu unable to restrain their excited and cold smiles when they recalled them.He licked his sharp teeth, almost drowning in the sweet aftertaste of blood.

"Mingyue! Don't you understand my behavior? It's a pity that this is the nature of monsters!" Ibaraki laughed again, "What are you angry about? Are you angry that I destroyed other lives? It's a pity that even you can't be brought back to life! Still worried? But what are you worried about? Don't worry—"

He raised his chin, very pleased.

"In short, as long as I don't die, I won't threaten your life. I will bear all the pain alone, so you can rest assured!" He really didn't care at all, and was even excited, "From today on, how about my battle—— —It has nothing to do with you!"

His words hit the water like a huge stone.However, there was no expected sound at all.Not even a ripple.

Silence prevailed all around, and the last ray of the setting sun remained.

After a while, there was a sudden laugh.

"Oh, it's okay with me—?"

Mingyue, who had been motionless all this time, finally raised her head.Her face was expressionless, her eyes were always clear and unwavering, but there was intense emotion behind her.

"Would you like to be more straightforward and have nothing to do with me?"

The monster's pupils tightened violently. "you……"

"What am I angry about? What am I worried about?" Mingyue repeated, standing up, "You really don't understand? Want to know? Okay, I'll tell you."

"Qiang Lang" sounded softly.She pulled out a short knife out of thin air and held it firmly in her palm.The knife was bright and sharp, showing its sharpness, and the cold light on the tip of the knife was only a little distance away from Ibaraki.

The monster moved its lips, forming a cold smile. "Heh, Mingyue, are you trying to teach me a lesson?" He twisted his expression, his eyes seemed to be burning, "Come on! You..."

Before he could finish speaking, the cold light suddenly rose and fell!

The tip of the knife pierced the skin and cut blood vessels, blood gushed out, and was flung at the monster's body by the light of the knife.

That is human blood.

Mingyue straightened her arms.A long wound was as long as the forearm, and blood flowed out from the ripped flesh.

Just a moment ago, in an instant, she turned the blade of the knife, and it was aimed at herself.

However, as if she didn't feel any pain, she just looked at Ibaraki blankly and asked calmly, "Is it enough? If not, I'll do it again."

A few drops of blood were also thrown onto Ibaraki's face.He didn't seem to have reacted yet, and he didn't even have time to fade the distorted smile, so he could only stare blankly at her.He even mechanically raised his hand to wipe the blood on his cheek.

Warm...blood.

Belonging to her, her blood...

"Not enough, right?" Mingyue nodded, "Okay, let's do it again."

"No-no! No no no no!"

A howl that didn't resemble a human being—no, he wasn't human in the first place.The big monster who didn't care about his own injuries, now faced with such a small injury, but howled in pain as if his life had been taken away.

He grabbed the dagger with all his might and flung it aside.The sharp blade cut his palm, but he didn't care about it, he just eagerly grabbed her injured arm.Compared to her, the monster's body was too tall, and he had to arch his body to carefully hold her arm in his palm.

Izuku trembled all over.As if his spine had been broken, he bent down and bowed his head, all he could see was the almost bone-deep wound.

The wound bled profusely, and it soon stained her forearm red, and then dripped all over his hands.Ibaraki wanted to cover her wound so that she would not bleed any more, but he couldn't control the strength of his injured arm and dared not touch her at all.He finally hated himself, hated why he only knew how to fight and kill, but didn't know anything about healing.

Finally, the monster could only look up at her.The gaze was almost forlorn.

"Moon..."

"I really find it weird," Mingyue said, "If you see me hurt and feel sad and angry at things that hurt me, why do you think I won't feel the same emotion?"

"Mingyue... Let's talk about it later, okay?" Ibaraki's hands were covered with her blood, and even his voice was trembling, "Can you stop the bleeding first?"

Mingyue said, "Sit down."

Now, no matter what she said, he dared not listen.

Ibaraki thought that after he sat down as promised, she would heal him as he wished, but she didn't say anything, she still had such a calm expression, but pulled her arm out of his palm.

Then, close to his own wound.

"Ibaraki, you have to know that blood also contains powerful power. Sometimes, using blood as a medium can have a very good effect." Mingyue squeezed the wound hard to make the blood flow out faster, " For example, during treatment, it can basically be said that the effect is immediate."

Ibaraki stared blankly at her again, and then at the movements of her hands.

Indeed, powerful and vibrant forces are constantly surging in.As soon as her blood dripped, the wound began to heal visibly.

"After all, blood is life." Mingyue said.

When Mingyue was going to squeeze the blood again, Ibaraki finally understood what everything in front of him meant.

"No—" He stared at this scene full of fear, and immediately wanted to jump up.

No, no, don't be like this, he's wrong, he knows, he listens to her, can't he, can't, can't, can't -

But Mingyue pressed his shoulder.

Some bloodstains were also pressed onto his shoulders.

"If you don't want me to cancel the contract now, then don't move." She said flatly, "Ibaraki, if I cancel the symbiosis contract, you know what will happen. And, you also know that I have this ability."

In their symbiotic contract, she was the "recipient".

--will die.

"Moon..."

Izuku looked at her in despair.However, he didn't even dare to speak, he could only plead with his eyes.do not do that.

do not do that……
