Super power krypton gold [Comprehensive]
Chapter 90 Flooded in mud, not at a loss
By the time I noticed the mutation, it was too late.
Countless dark and dense lines, like old stains on the floor that cannot be scrubbed clean, or like entangled vine roots of some kind of plant, centered on the old man's head, spread explosively in all directions.
Just when everyone was dodging in astonishment, I found only Xingniao alone, as if he had no reaction to this terrifying strange phenomenon, his eyes were dull, his hands were lowered, and he was stuck in place in a daze.
This time, the decadent aura seeping out of her eyes is definitely not acting.
"Hey, I say you!!"
It was too late and then too soon, the white of Xingniao's eyes had been completely dyed black, and the eyeballs melted into the darkness, making it impossible to distinguish. The scene was as weird as it could be.Seeing the black shadow rapidly spreading towards her pupil on the other side, I ignored the previous grievances and subconsciously raised my voice.
"!!This is……?!"
Xingniao seemed to wake up suddenly from sleepwalking, his facial features were violently distorted, and his expression was filled with unprecedented shake and horror.
"What's going on?! My body doesn't listen—"
"Smart people don't speak dark words. According to my rich Two-dimensional experience, I think you may be possessed!!"
I activated my "High-Speed Divine Word" (?) skill again, and my two mouths slapped frantically, and I jumped out ten words in a second:
"I just want to ask what's going on? You have exhausted all your tricks, endured humiliation, and planned painstakingly for so many years. How come you didn't realize that someone had tampered with you long ago??"
"On me??"
She looked more surprised than I did. "I don't have—no, I do, but it's to control me—"
"Ah? What are you talking about???"
"........."
Just as we were staring at each other and confused, I keenly noticed—from the root of the wall not far from my feet, there was a rattling sound of teeth, and a series of almost nervous murmured:
"It's not me, it's not my fault. It's not me, Second Miss, it's not my fault..."
"Hey."
I reacted immediately, grabbed the man's collar without thinking, and dragged him up like a dead fish:
"What 'not me', what did you do? Make it clear."
"I, no, not me, I didn't..."
"If you can't speak clearly, I'll knock your head off to see if you can turn into a corpse like your boss. Try?"
"Alas……!!"
The man I dragged up was none other than the "No. 198" who was trembling, shrinking his hands and feet, shaking like a little quail just now, struggling to survive in front of the leader's despotic power.
(Just now, the leader ordered him to be in charge of the operation and transfer his soul to me. If I guessed correctly, this man's ability is "reincarnation".)
"Don't, don't kill me!! I said, I said everything..."
At this moment, the leader's head has been blown away by Jiu Tun, and he can no longer dominate him, but the mood of No. 198 is still not much better.The only difference is that the object of his fear has changed from the leader to me.
It didn't take me much work to get him to speak the truth.
According to No. 198's confession, in fact, a long time ago, when Star Bird was a young girl, the leader had "hands and feet" on her.
This is also of course.
The eldest son, Chuyang, has been very thoughtful since he was a child, and he has a rather fearless heroism. He has long put his personal life and death aside, and has always been willing to compromise only for the sake of his mother.
But the leader knew that no matter how hard he tried and exhausted all medical and supernatural means, the life of his wife who was resolutely cut off by him—that is, Chu Yang's mother could only last for about 20 years at most.
20 years later, Chuyang is still a young man, what if he turns back in anger...
Because of this, he must firmly hold the second female star bird in his hands, and must let her be used by him for the rest of his life.
If Chuyang and Xingniao are lost at the same time, and both of them are his enemies, cracks will appear in the criminal empire of his dreams.
Therefore, he drove a "wedge" made of supernatural powers near the girl's heart.
The person who made the "wedge" was protected in a very safe secret room and maintained a single-line connection with the leader.As long as the leader finds that the star bird has a little rebellious heart, he will give an order to the supernatural person to use a "wedge" to pierce the star bird's heart.
——The above is what Hoshidori originally knew.
Affectionately, affably.Her biological father said to her with a kind smile on his face:
my child.If you betray me one day, die.
……
That's why he was able to send Xingniao to infiltrate the Secret Service without any fear, and become the "internal traitor" buried among us.From the very beginning, he wasn't worried that Xingniao would turn against him.
Because he knew that his daughter [does not want to die].
There is nothing that can be manipulated better than a person who does not want to die.
Xingniao, who didn't want to die, especially in a cage, spent many years waiting for the opportunity to play a good daughter on the island with a low eyebrow and a vicious third-rate female supporting role in the spy department. Playing around with black and white, I finally found a chance to cut my father apart (physically), so that he didn't have time to give orders.
Her only two goals are to be free and to live.
(...Originally, it should be possible to succeed.)
"and then?"
Seeing that the situation was critical, I forced No. 198 to continue with a sharper gaze and tone:
"It's more than that. Tell me honestly, what exactly is the 'wedge' that the leader drove into the star bird's chest?"
"This...I..."
"Edmund, blow his—"
"Don't worry, I will be very cruel."
"Don't don't do this!! I said, I said!!!"
The man squatted down, hugged his head and screamed, trying his best to curl up into a very small and pitiful ball.
(What's the matter with this person. If he eats hard but not soft, is he an M?)
"In that 'wedge', the blood of the leader is actually hidden, and, and... in order to complete the 'reincarnation', the pre-drawn spell!!"
"..."
"So, so, there is no need to perform any surgery, as long as the ability is activated directly, the leader can 'reincarnate' onto the second lady and occupy her body. However, that... I heard that the second lady's ability is very resentful. It may make people crazy, short-lived, or even disabled. Many people died during the research, only the second young lady survived, and her lifespan was also affected. The leader did not think highly of her, and only regarded her as a last resort As an insurance measure... He, he still prefers Miss Fifth, that is, you."
"........."
Thanks, I'm not happy at all.
(However... in this case, there is still a question that must be resolved.)
I asked condescendingly:
"You said 'you can reincarnate as long as you activate the ability', that is to say, someone needs to activate the ability in time? Now the reason why the star bird is possessed is also because—"
"Yes, it is."
The man's eyes wandered, and his voice weakened all the way like a leak: "That, that is..."
"...Did you do it?"
"........."
Wordless silence.
It seems that this man lacks the necessary courage, whether he admits it frankly or lies about it.
"I, I don't want to either!!"
Probably smelling a hint of danger from my icy gaze, the man shuddered suddenly, and then began to shake his head to defend desperately:
"Because the leader ordered me, 'If he is found to be in danger of life, he must activate the ability immediately', I can't disobey him—"
"—But, if he burps here, you don't have to obey him anymore? You are also a victim of trafficking. If you are lucky, you may be able to go home and reunite with your real relatives."
I calmly point out the facts.
"Just now, you personally destroyed the freedom that was at your fingertips."
"…………"
This time, the sudden silence was longer than before.The man froze in place as if he had been struck by lightning, and after a while he spit out a syllable in a daze:
"……………………………………Eh?"
(...Didn't you notice, hey.)
However, it is true.
Elephants chained to a post since childhood can no longer leave the place even if the chain is loosened.
This man——Experiment No. 198, was neither the leader's loyal dog, nor a deranged villain.
He is just a [prisoner] who has been gradually paralyzed during the long imprisonment, and is overwhelmed by the fear rooted in his heart, so that he can't notice the opening of the prison door.
Probably, when I gnawed on the leader and kicked the bodyguard just now, seeing that the protective cover was on the verge of being smashed, No. 198, who was left aside, realized that "the leader's life is in danger" and "I must obey orders", so without thinking , instinctively activated the ability.
Therefore, even after Jiu Tun raised the sword and cut off the leader's head, the ability activated by No. 198 still works as usual, allowing the leader's soul to erode the star bird's body.
it is ridiculous.
It's so sad.
Number 198 is a little guy.From appearance to personality, they are ordinary, like pebbles rolling down the roadside, they can be seen everywhere and are not worth mentioning.
He doesn't have the courage, will, and wisdom of Amakawa Hoshitori. As a human being, he is undoubtedly a weak person, but the instinct of "not wanting to die" is exactly the same as hers, and the same goal is achieved by different routes.
The leader must have known his nature already, that's why he kept such a timid man by his side.
Star Bird couldn't understand the mood of the weak, so he ignored it and didn't realize his existence from beginning to end.
In the end, the powerful star bird was defeated here.
"........."
"........."
Facing the reality that was too ironic, Xingniao, Chuyang and I were speechless for a while, with mixed feelings in our hearts.However, the rapidly advancing reality does not leave us much sentimental leisure.
"I think, I probably can't do it."
Star Bird raised his hand to cover half of his cheek, and let out a long sigh mixed with a wry smile.
"Father's original abilities were restricted by his body. After getting my body, he might grow into an unprecedented monster. He won."
At this moment, black veins as dense as blood vessels quickly covered her pale skin, making her look even more ferocious.
"Although I am very unwilling, but I am willing to bet and admit defeat, I can only go here. There is nothing to say. Brother Chuyang——and teak, you go."
"what?!"
Chu Yang shouted out one step ahead of me, "Stop joking, how could I..."
Before the words fell, there was only a "boom", and the mysterious black substance that was still clinging to the ground like stains suddenly exploded and turned into a liquid with substance—or "black mud"—that surfaced in a large area On the surface, spewing and splashing unscrupulously.
Wherever the black mud went, no matter whether it was the floor, walls or furniture, without exception, they were swallowed into it indiscriminately.
(What the hell?? Such a good appetite, almost like a slime...)
Sorry, I accidentally insulted the slime again.
(Speaking of which, what exactly did this person transform himself into???)
"Leave quickly!!"
The star bird hissed and urged again, the tone of his voice was distorted as if it had been torn apart, and it pulled out an almost mournful arc.
I don't know if it was because she was afraid that we still had nostalgia, she suddenly stretched out her hand and pulled the overwhelmed Jing Mi, and then pushed her towards me forcefully.
"Teak, take them away! I can't last long. Before I completely lose myself, I will cut off the connection between myself and the supernatural life form, and transfer the contract to you."
"Varied……"
(In other words, don’t push Jing Mi who is covered in poison?! I’m not a protagonist who is invulnerable to all poisons!!)
Compared to my wavering, Star Bird's tone was surprisingly calm:
"That way, they don't have to be devoured with me. That's the only thing I can do now."
"No, wait a minute, are you serious?! Calm down, it's me? It's Akane Yuzuki you hate the most??"
Indeed, very few summoners can voluntarily give up their abilities, or transfer them to others.But the ability is so hard-won, generally speaking, it is impossible for anyone to let it go willingly.
(What's more, the star bird has always been to me——)
"Yes."
Star Bird admitted lightly.
"Akane Yuki, I've always hated you."
Only at this moment, the woman's lifeless gray expression opens a gap, allowing me to glimpse the softness and freshness that should belong to the star bird, but has never been revealed.
It was also at this moment that the black mud that had spread out on the ground in a shallow layer rose again, and began to flow towards the living creatures on the scene—towards us.
As for the star bird, her whole body has been soaked in black mud, and it is gradually difficult to distinguish the outline of the human figure, and the facial features are also faded and blurred as if melting.
Only the smile at the corner of his mouth and the two astonishingly bright starlights in his eyes still appeared transparent and clear in the darkness.
"...Master. Although I once turned into a ghost, I still yearn to be a human in the end."
Beside me, Jiu Tun caressed Jian Feng with his fingertips, and whispered softly as if regretting his heart.
"Even if you can't live like a human, you have to die like a human, bathed in the warm light. Oops... This time, I also met an interesting Master. For ghosts, it seems a little too much." Is it dazzling?"
"It's me who should thank you all. I... am an incompetent superhuman, and I can't give you anything."
Star Bird shook his head laboriously.
I can see that her last rationality and consciousness are as thin as a gossamer, and the weight of a thousand weights is tied to a hair, and it may collapse at any time.Apart from temporarily retreating, gathering other companions, and trying to defeat the possessed leader, there is nothing I can do now.
However, before leaving, I still decided to hear her words to the end.
"Akane Yuki."
"I'm here."
"I hate you."
"I know. You've said it many times."
"I hate you, I hate you, I envy you. I... envy you very much..."
"I know all this."
"If it was me who was taken away..."
"Maybe now you and I will switch sides, maybe not. But the 'if' is impossible. Whether lucky or unlucky, we can only live in the reality we have been given."
"I understand. I understand this. I have always understood... Although I understand it, I can't stop being envious. I... can't help but dream..."
The woman who was engulfed by the mud, murmured to herself in a trance like a dream, and stretched out her hand to me unconsciously.
The muddy and trembling fingertips seem to be telling the sad essence of human beings called "Amakawa Star Bird".
In order to survive, she kept playing various roles, and she was used to wrapping herself in lies. At the end, she left the only sincere confession.
"Akane Yuki."
"I am. I am here."
"you go."
Her voice lowered a little bit, "Just like this, with the expression of happiness that I hate the most, live on..."
"Because, you are my dream. As long as you are still alive, my dream will not die."
"------"
At this moment, the surging black mud turned into a towering curtain wall, isolating and blocking Xingniao's entire body, and finally got involved in it wholeheartedly, completely submerged.
At the same time, the Cave King, who had been waiting behind me for a long time, picked me up, jumped out of the room in twos and threes, smashed a window in the corridor with his backhand, and supported me firmly from the height of a few floors. Down.
"..."
For the first time in my life, amidst the nauseatingly rapid weightlessness, I didn't feel a trace of panic in my heart.
Even the gradual recovery of the pain in the wound and the weakness and dizziness caused by blood loss have long been thrown out of the sky by me.
I just wrapped my arms around the Cave King's neck and buried my cheeks in his cloak silently to cover up my gnashing of teeth.
"I can not accept……"
"I see."
The Cave King spoke logically, but he didn't know what he understood.
"Really, I hate her too. She's jealous of me all the time. She's always acting weird and finding fault. Even if it's acting, I can't swallow it."
"I see."
The Cave King's tone was flat, but there was a kind of unspoken understanding and tolerance in it.
It didn't sound like he said anything, but what he meant was probably "I can understand and accept whatever you say".
So, I confessed my wish to him frankly.
"Let's save her, Edmund. Defeat the culprit, save Tianchuan Star Bird, and let her receive the punishment she deserves for what she has done.—Then, give her back her powers, and start afresh." start."
Maybe, it's not too late now.
To be honest, I'm also just a small, ordinary human being, not sure how to get to the "right" future.But now this ending must be wrong.
It cannot end like this.
I will never accept this ending.
"it is good."
To my willful wish, the Cave King answered with only one sentence.
"I have indeed heard your call."
"So……"
boom! !
Before I could answer, there was a deafening bang above my head.
When I looked up, I saw another window shattered under the impact of the black mud. The heavy and wet mud quickly condensed into a giant claw, and grabbed us head-to-head!
"Tsk...!!"
The Cave King, who was in mid-air, had nowhere to rely on, so he had no way to dodge.In order to release Black Flame to fight back, he had to release one hand from me——
However, before that.
A vortex of flames came from behind us, like a hungry dragon, and devoured the black mud covering our heads in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, I felt my other arm being roughly pulled by someone, and my whole body was taken out of the cave king's arms, and fell into another, even smaller...and unusually soft embrace.
"Hmph. I just left for a while, and you fell into this kind of crisis... Sure enough, this little Master still can't do without me."
A haughty, barbed voice.
"By the way, what's going on now? Is that guy crazy? No, take a closer look, isn't Qian injured?! What are you doing, Cave King!!!"
And, Aozhong has a little bit of coquettishness that seems to be absent, which is the most addictive.
"That, alter kiss...?"
"Kiss your head! Listen, you stay awake now, you must not sleep, you know?! The ship of the Secret Service is approaching the coast, and you will wait with the medical staff when the time comes, don't run around and get in the way!!"
"No, that, the battle..."
"And then."
The silver-haired and golden-eyed girl——Jeanne Alter turned a deaf ear to my whispered protests, hugged me with one hand and easily landed, then flipped her short hair and cloak neatly, her eyes were shining brightly, and threw a ray of ice-like sharpness towards the castle. Sight.
"In short, first turn them into flour-sized particles? Specifically, burn them repeatedly three times, and then put the ashes into the millstone and grind them slowly."
As the name suggests, the Dragon Witch looks like some kind of carnivore that hasn't eaten meat for three years, and she has a ferocious smile that looks more like a villain than a villain.
The author has something to say: The scene of the second sister’s temporary retreat was written longer than expected (wiping sweat
This time, the boss battle is really starting, and the boss is really big. The boss who got the second sister's body and abilities will summon something very white
Countless dark and dense lines, like old stains on the floor that cannot be scrubbed clean, or like entangled vine roots of some kind of plant, centered on the old man's head, spread explosively in all directions.
Just when everyone was dodging in astonishment, I found only Xingniao alone, as if he had no reaction to this terrifying strange phenomenon, his eyes were dull, his hands were lowered, and he was stuck in place in a daze.
This time, the decadent aura seeping out of her eyes is definitely not acting.
"Hey, I say you!!"
It was too late and then too soon, the white of Xingniao's eyes had been completely dyed black, and the eyeballs melted into the darkness, making it impossible to distinguish. The scene was as weird as it could be.Seeing the black shadow rapidly spreading towards her pupil on the other side, I ignored the previous grievances and subconsciously raised my voice.
"!!This is……?!"
Xingniao seemed to wake up suddenly from sleepwalking, his facial features were violently distorted, and his expression was filled with unprecedented shake and horror.
"What's going on?! My body doesn't listen—"
"Smart people don't speak dark words. According to my rich Two-dimensional experience, I think you may be possessed!!"
I activated my "High-Speed Divine Word" (?) skill again, and my two mouths slapped frantically, and I jumped out ten words in a second:
"I just want to ask what's going on? You have exhausted all your tricks, endured humiliation, and planned painstakingly for so many years. How come you didn't realize that someone had tampered with you long ago??"
"On me??"
She looked more surprised than I did. "I don't have—no, I do, but it's to control me—"
"Ah? What are you talking about???"
"........."
Just as we were staring at each other and confused, I keenly noticed—from the root of the wall not far from my feet, there was a rattling sound of teeth, and a series of almost nervous murmured:
"It's not me, it's not my fault. It's not me, Second Miss, it's not my fault..."
"Hey."
I reacted immediately, grabbed the man's collar without thinking, and dragged him up like a dead fish:
"What 'not me', what did you do? Make it clear."
"I, no, not me, I didn't..."
"If you can't speak clearly, I'll knock your head off to see if you can turn into a corpse like your boss. Try?"
"Alas……!!"
The man I dragged up was none other than the "No. 198" who was trembling, shrinking his hands and feet, shaking like a little quail just now, struggling to survive in front of the leader's despotic power.
(Just now, the leader ordered him to be in charge of the operation and transfer his soul to me. If I guessed correctly, this man's ability is "reincarnation".)
"Don't, don't kill me!! I said, I said everything..."
At this moment, the leader's head has been blown away by Jiu Tun, and he can no longer dominate him, but the mood of No. 198 is still not much better.The only difference is that the object of his fear has changed from the leader to me.
It didn't take me much work to get him to speak the truth.
According to No. 198's confession, in fact, a long time ago, when Star Bird was a young girl, the leader had "hands and feet" on her.
This is also of course.
The eldest son, Chuyang, has been very thoughtful since he was a child, and he has a rather fearless heroism. He has long put his personal life and death aside, and has always been willing to compromise only for the sake of his mother.
But the leader knew that no matter how hard he tried and exhausted all medical and supernatural means, the life of his wife who was resolutely cut off by him—that is, Chu Yang's mother could only last for about 20 years at most.
20 years later, Chuyang is still a young man, what if he turns back in anger...
Because of this, he must firmly hold the second female star bird in his hands, and must let her be used by him for the rest of his life.
If Chuyang and Xingniao are lost at the same time, and both of them are his enemies, cracks will appear in the criminal empire of his dreams.
Therefore, he drove a "wedge" made of supernatural powers near the girl's heart.
The person who made the "wedge" was protected in a very safe secret room and maintained a single-line connection with the leader.As long as the leader finds that the star bird has a little rebellious heart, he will give an order to the supernatural person to use a "wedge" to pierce the star bird's heart.
——The above is what Hoshidori originally knew.
Affectionately, affably.Her biological father said to her with a kind smile on his face:

That's why he was able to send Xingniao to infiltrate the Secret Service without any fear, and become the "internal traitor" buried among us.From the very beginning, he wasn't worried that Xingniao would turn against him.
Because he knew that his daughter [does not want to die].
There is nothing that can be manipulated better than a person who does not want to die.

Playing around with black and white, I finally found a chance to cut my father apart (physically), so that he didn't have time to give orders.
Her only two goals are to be free and to live.

"Don't worry, I will be very cruel."
"Don't don't do this!! I said, I said!!!"
The man squatted down, hugged his head and screamed, trying his best to curl up into a very small and pitiful ball.
(What's the matter with this person. If he eats hard but not soft, is he an M?)
"In that 'wedge', the blood of the leader is actually hidden, and, and... in order to complete the 'reincarnation', the pre-drawn spell!!"

It's so sad.
Number 198 is a little guy.From appearance to personality, they are ordinary, like pebbles rolling down the roadside, they can be seen everywhere and are not worth mentioning.
He doesn't have the courage, will, and wisdom of Amakawa Hoshitori. As a human being, he is undoubtedly a weak person, but the instinct of "not wanting to die" is exactly the same as hers, and the same goal is achieved by different routes.
The leader must have known his nature already, that's why he kept such a timid man by his side.
Star Bird couldn't understand the mood of the weak, so he ignored it and didn't realize his existence from beginning to end.
In the end, the powerful star bird was defeated here.
"........."
"........."
Facing the reality that was too ironic, Xingniao, Chuyang and I were speechless for a while, with mixed feelings in our hearts.However, the rapidly advancing reality does not leave us much sentimental leisure.
"I think, I probably can't do it."
Star Bird raised his hand to cover half of his cheek, and let out a long sigh mixed with a wry smile.
"Father's original abilities were restricted by his body. After getting my body, he might grow into an unprecedented monster. He won."
At this moment, black veins as dense as blood vessels quickly covered her pale skin, making her look even more ferocious.
"Although I am very unwilling, but I am willing to bet and admit defeat, I can only go here. There is nothing to say. Brother Chuyang——and teak, you go."
"what?!"
Chu Yang shouted out one step ahead of me, "Stop joking, how could I..."
Before the words fell, there was only a "boom", and the mysterious black substance that was still clinging to the ground like stains suddenly exploded and turned into a liquid with substance—or "black mud"—that surfaced in a large area On the surface, spewing and splashing unscrupulously.
Wherever the black mud went, no matter whether it was the floor, walls or furniture, without exception, they were swallowed into it indiscriminately.
(What the hell?? Such a good appetite, almost like a slime...)
Sorry, I accidentally insulted the slime again.
(Speaking of which, what exactly did this person transform himself into???)
"Leave quickly!!"
The star bird hissed and urged again, the tone of his voice was distorted as if it had been torn apart, and it pulled out an almost mournful arc.
I don't know if it was because she was afraid that we still had nostalgia, she suddenly stretched out her hand and pulled the overwhelmed Jing Mi, and then pushed her towards me forcefully.
"Teak, take them away! I can't last long. Before I completely lose myself, I will cut off the connection between myself and the supernatural life form, and transfer the contract to you."
"Varied……"
(In other words, don’t push Jing Mi who is covered in poison?! I’m not a protagonist who is invulnerable to all poisons!!)
Compared to my wavering, Star Bird's tone was surprisingly calm:
"That way, they don't have to be devoured with me. That's the only thing I can do now."
"No, wait a minute, are you serious?! Calm down, it's me? It's Akane Yuzuki you hate the most??"
Indeed, very few summoners can voluntarily give up their abilities, or transfer them to others.But the ability is so hard-won, generally speaking, it is impossible for anyone to let it go willingly.
(What's more, the star bird has always been to me——)
"Yes."
Star Bird admitted lightly.
"Akane Yuki, I've always hated you."
Only at this moment, the woman's lifeless gray expression opens a gap, allowing me to glimpse the softness and freshness that should belong to the star bird, but has never been revealed.
It was also at this moment that the black mud that had spread out on the ground in a shallow layer rose again, and began to flow towards the living creatures on the scene—towards us.
As for the star bird, her whole body has been soaked in black mud, and it is gradually difficult to distinguish the outline of the human figure, and the facial features are also faded and blurred as if melting.
Only the smile at the corner of his mouth and the two astonishingly bright starlights in his eyes still appeared transparent and clear in the darkness.
"...Master. Although I once turned into a ghost, I still yearn to be a human in the end."
Beside me, Jiu Tun caressed Jian Feng with his fingertips, and whispered softly as if regretting his heart.
"Even if you can't live like a human, you have to die like a human, bathed in the warm light. Oops... This time, I also met an interesting Master. For ghosts, it seems a little too much." Is it dazzling?"
"It's me who should thank you all. I... am an incompetent superhuman, and I can't give you anything."
Star Bird shook his head laboriously.
I can see that her last rationality and consciousness are as thin as a gossamer, and the weight of a thousand weights is tied to a hair, and it may collapse at any time.Apart from temporarily retreating, gathering other companions, and trying to defeat the possessed leader, there is nothing I can do now.
However, before leaving, I still decided to hear her words to the end.
"Akane Yuki."
"I'm here."
"I hate you."
"I know. You've said it many times."
"I hate you, I hate you, I envy you. I... envy you very much..."
"I know all this."
"If it was me who was taken away..."
"Maybe now you and I will switch sides, maybe not. But the 'if' is impossible. Whether lucky or unlucky, we can only live in the reality we have been given."
"I understand. I understand this. I have always understood... Although I understand it, I can't stop being envious. I... can't help but dream..."
The woman who was engulfed by the mud, murmured to herself in a trance like a dream, and stretched out her hand to me unconsciously.
The muddy and trembling fingertips seem to be telling the sad essence of human beings called "Amakawa Star Bird".
In order to survive, she kept playing various roles, and she was used to wrapping herself in lies. At the end, she left the only sincere confession.
"Akane Yuki."
"I am. I am here."
"you go."
Her voice lowered a little bit, "Just like this, with the expression of happiness that I hate the most, live on..."
"Because, you are my dream. As long as you are still alive, my dream will not die."
"------"
At this moment, the surging black mud turned into a towering curtain wall, isolating and blocking Xingniao's entire body, and finally got involved in it wholeheartedly, completely submerged.
At the same time, the Cave King, who had been waiting behind me for a long time, picked me up, jumped out of the room in twos and threes, smashed a window in the corridor with his backhand, and supported me firmly from the height of a few floors. Down.
"..."
For the first time in my life, amidst the nauseatingly rapid weightlessness, I didn't feel a trace of panic in my heart.
Even the gradual recovery of the pain in the wound and the weakness and dizziness caused by blood loss have long been thrown out of the sky by me.
I just wrapped my arms around the Cave King's neck and buried my cheeks in his cloak silently to cover up my gnashing of teeth.
"I can not accept……"
"I see."
The Cave King spoke logically, but he didn't know what he understood.
"Really, I hate her too. She's jealous of me all the time. She's always acting weird and finding fault. Even if it's acting, I can't swallow it."
"I see."
The Cave King's tone was flat, but there was a kind of unspoken understanding and tolerance in it.
It didn't sound like he said anything, but what he meant was probably "I can understand and accept whatever you say".
So, I confessed my wish to him frankly.
"Let's save her, Edmund. Defeat the culprit, save Tianchuan Star Bird, and let her receive the punishment she deserves for what she has done.—Then, give her back her powers, and start afresh." start."
Maybe, it's not too late now.
To be honest, I'm also just a small, ordinary human being, not sure how to get to the "right" future.But now this ending must be wrong.
It cannot end like this.
I will never accept this ending.
"it is good."
To my willful wish, the Cave King answered with only one sentence.
"I have indeed heard your call."
"So……"
boom! !
Before I could answer, there was a deafening bang above my head.
When I looked up, I saw another window shattered under the impact of the black mud. The heavy and wet mud quickly condensed into a giant claw, and grabbed us head-to-head!
"Tsk...!!"
The Cave King, who was in mid-air, had nowhere to rely on, so he had no way to dodge.In order to release Black Flame to fight back, he had to release one hand from me——
However, before that.
A vortex of flames came from behind us, like a hungry dragon, and devoured the black mud covering our heads in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, I felt my other arm being roughly pulled by someone, and my whole body was taken out of the cave king's arms, and fell into another, even smaller...and unusually soft embrace.
"Hmph. I just left for a while, and you fell into this kind of crisis... Sure enough, this little Master still can't do without me."
A haughty, barbed voice.
"By the way, what's going on now? Is that guy crazy? No, take a closer look, isn't Qian injured?! What are you doing, Cave King!!!"
And, Aozhong has a little bit of coquettishness that seems to be absent, which is the most addictive.
"That, alter kiss...?"
"Kiss your head! Listen, you stay awake now, you must not sleep, you know?! The ship of the Secret Service is approaching the coast, and you will wait with the medical staff when the time comes, don't run around and get in the way!!"
"No, that, the battle..."
"And then."
The silver-haired and golden-eyed girl——Jeanne Alter turned a deaf ear to my whispered protests, hugged me with one hand and easily landed, then flipped her short hair and cloak neatly, her eyes were shining brightly, and threw a ray of ice-like sharpness towards the castle. Sight.
"In short, first turn them into flour-sized particles? Specifically, burn them repeatedly three times, and then put the ashes into the millstone and grind them slowly."
As the name suggests, the Dragon Witch looks like some kind of carnivore that hasn't eaten meat for three years, and she has a ferocious smile that looks more like a villain than a villain.
The author has something to say: The scene of the second sister’s temporary retreat was written longer than expected (wiping sweat
This time, the boss battle is really starting, and the boss is really big. The boss who got the second sister's body and abilities will summon something very white
