I really only stop

A gust of wind happened to blow by, just enough to blow up the brim of the man's hat covering his face.What appeared in front of Miss Kanban Niang was a pair of inorganic eyes shining with purple and black colors, and a face with a stiff smile.

Undoubtedly, that is not the smile of a [living person].

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!!!"

Driven by instinct, the body let out a high-pitched scream, and slammed into the wall behind him with a thud. The eyes of the poor Kanban lady were full of fear:

"Help! There are ghosts here! No matter who you are, please help me!!!"

"Ghost? Is it a ghost-type monster?!"

As a city where adventurers gather, Rhine City has never lacked chivalrous passers-by.Soon, a group of people dressed as warriors surrounded Mamayi with unkind faces.

"... Sir, can you raise your hood?"

After looking around, the oldest soldier stood up with a serious face:

"In the past, there have been incidents of humanoid monsters sneaking into the city and causing harm. Please forgive me for the sake of caution."

【…】

Mamai didn't speak. When he just talked to the Kanban lady, he faintly felt that, except for that weird little girl, other living people would be shocked as long as they heard his intention to communicate with others. Great damage imagined.

【The living cannot talk to the dead】——For a bard like me, this is really an ironic restriction.

"... Then I'm sorry, I will do it myself."

Seeing that the suspicious man in front of him didn't respond to him at all, the leading soldier frowned and walked up to Mamai:

"If it turns out to be a misunderstanding, everyone present will buy you a drink, brother."

lift.

"?!"

As the hood was completely lifted, Mamai's posture, which was obviously not that of a living person, was completely exposed in front of everyone.

Bizarre, eerie, frightening.

Although it is still not sure what the true face of the existence in front of him is, but the moment he saw his inorganic eyes, an instinctive chill rushed straight into his heart.

Relying on his rich experience, he quickly reacted from his stupefaction, and the leading warrior called out to the surrounding adventurers:

"It's a monster! Surround him!"

—— Immediately afterwards, a dense human wall composed of warriors, magicians, thieves, and priests completely surrounded Mamayi in the middle.

Chapter 755 Girl and Doll ([-])

It's [Human Wall] again.

Looking around at the nervous adventurers who surrounded him, Mamai's mood was calmer than he imagined.

I have seen a human wall that is ten thousand times stronger than this one [over there]. Logically speaking, even I, who can survive facing that one by chance, would have no trouble breaking through the predicament in front of me.

But I don't know why, my footsteps are like nails, and I can't move a step.

why?

Scanning the faces of every adventurer around one by one, Mamayi's heart flashed with a daze.

...I see, I have lost my [goal] to live even if I struggle.

After a long struggle on the way to death, when I finally returned to this world, 4000 years have passed.

In the vicissitudes of life, things are changing, people are changing, everything that is seen is strange things that have never been seen before, and everything that was once familiar can no longer be found—even her.

Not to mention ordinary life, even legendary creatures like giant dragons may not be able to live for 4000 years.

Struggling to get back here, in the end, it turned out to be a vain ending—could it be that the illusory nature is telling me in this way that the laws cannot be violated, and if I forcefully disobey life and death, I will only get this kind of result in the end?

"Warrior professions should protect themselves well! The magicians in the back row began to chant spells! I have never seen such a chilling monster before, so we must be more careful!"

Clearly aware that the surrounding elements are becoming dangerous with the chanting of the magicians, the standing ender puppet has no intention of avoiding it.

Yes, that's fine.

I have completely lost all of me, so I just need to be wiped out by the magic attack like this, and then go back to that place.

"Get ready! Listen to my password and launch together!"

The hasty chant didn't stop because of Mamai's thoughts. When the fireball and thunder light reached its peak, the leading warrior raised his right hand high.As long as he gives an order, the strange nameless monster in front of him will be completely crusaded.

The matter should have ended here, and the man who returned from death but fell into despair because of life is about to meet his second death.However--

"Please, please wait a moment!!!"

——A trembling but exhausted call attracted the attention of everyone present.

------------

"Hey! Little girl! Dangerous!"

Unexpectedly, he was pushed away by a thrust from behind, and after he quickly adjusted his center of gravity and stood up, the leading soldier looked in shock at the little girl standing in front of the unknown monster:

"We are hunting down the monsters that invaded the city! Hurry up and hide here!"

"No! Mamai is not a monster!"

Even though she was about to spit out nervously under so many gazes, the petite girl resisted the instinct to turn around and run away, and opened her slender arms tremblingly:

"He is the alchemy puppet I made! It won't hurt everyone!"

"Alchemy puppet?"

Frowning, he looked at Mamayi's strange face that didn't look like a normal person, and the leading adventurer waved his hand to signal the people around him to temporarily stop attacking and turn to a defensive posture:

"Little girl, do you mean you are an alchemist?"

"Yes, yes, that's it..."

Sensitively aware that the surrounding atmosphere has eased a little bit, Nana, who rarely showed courage, immediately recovered her soft nature:

"I accidentally set the wrong program this time, and let my family doll run out to scare everyone. I'm really sorry! I will correct it next time!"

"...No, it's nothing. The Kanban lady just seemed to be frightened."

No one could get angry with the fluffy girl in front of him, but out of prudence, the leading soldier still didn't signal to let her go:

"Sorry, little girl. Unless you can prove that the one behind you is really the so-called [Alchemy Puppet], I can't let you go."

This is a natural judgment, because Nana's face is too immature, the warrior can't believe that she can make a free-moving alchemy puppet at her age.Unless... she can really [control] him.

"D-Of course! Please let me show it to everyone!"

Nodding vigorously, Nana turned around and whispered to Mamai:

"Quick, Mamai, come and raise your hand!"

【……why? 】

"Eh?"

【Why can Ms. Nana say so confidently, 'This is my doll'? 】

Still maintaining a standing posture, Mamayi looked down at Nana:

【Are you scared too?He is obviously such a person who is not good at communicating with others, but he mustered up the courage to stand on the opposite side of everyone for me. Why is this? 】

"Eh? Even if you suddenly ask me..."

Feeling overwhelmed by this question, Nana blinked:

"Because Mamai is the puppet I made? From design to finding materials to carving, every step is done by myself. Especially the level of finding materials, because I dare not talk to the adventurer who accepted the commission , I had no choice but to run out of the city to cut trees when the sun was at its brightest, and almost fell into the siege of chug rabbits!"

【You know what I want to ask is not this—】

"—Actually, when I talk to others, it is difficult to express my thoughts accurately. I don't know when to show closeness, and when to keep a distance—because I'm afraid that the person I'm talking to I hate it, and then I just stopped talking to people."

The two little hands were mixed together, and Nana looked into Mamayi's eyes seriously:

"However, it was different when I was with Mamai. I felt a strong sense of intimacy with you. Not only was I not nervous at all, but I also subconsciously wanted to talk to you for a while. At first I thought This is just the feeling when communicating with the puppet, but after thinking about it—"

Pointing at Mamai, and pointing at herself in turn, the girl showed a very clear smile on her little face:

"Mamai is alone, and I am also alone—two lonely people may become friends naturally when they get together~"

【! 】

It felt as if the field of vision became clear quickly as if being hit by something, and the [sense of nothingness] that had been enveloping Mamayi since waking up disappeared instantly.

Now that all ties to the world have faded with time, I thought I was an existence that didn't matter even if I died.

However, the little lady in front of me is 'relying on' me.

Even though I don't know anything about me, and I seem to have a half-knowledge of the concept of death, I am still willing to rely on me like this.

Too immature, too naive——

[So, are you willing to believe me? 】

A bright light flashed in the purple-black eyes, and Mamayi said softly to Nana:

【Even if I am a dead soul? 】

"Don't make such a horrible joke! I'm afraid of ghosts!"

The body shrank visibly, and Nana nodded firmly:

"It's not a ghost, Mamayi is just [my doll]!"

【...So that's the case, I understand. 】

Shaking her head in relief, Mamayi opened her arms wide under the watchful eyes of the adventurers around her.

【Then let it be as you wish, bard——no, your puppet Mamai, here I dedicate my favorite dance to you. 】

Against the backdrop of the surrounding streetlights, the tall and thin dolls danced gorgeous dance steps that have been lost for thousands of years.

Even if it is jumped out of the elongated and strange puppet body, the dance steps can still see a strange rhythm and beauty.Body language is the second way to express one's mind. As the dance steps are taken step by step, everyone present can't help but sink into it.

So beautiful, so precise, and the emotion contained in it is so hot.

There is no need for further proof, but with this dance, the adventurers can already conclude that this doll is not a [monster].

Not paying attention to the other people's eyes turning from guard to surprise, the ender puppet just stared at the girl clapping her little hands excitedly, a light of relief flashed in her eyes.

This second life given by you should be used to protect you as a matter of course.

Nana-san, in the future, I will be brave enough to smile in front of other people like today.

Chapter 756

[I see, beginners do not have a good sense of balance between left and right. 】

Playing the top hat in his hand up and down, the cross-dressing doll Lupine nodded deeply:

【But in the final analysis, this is still the fault of Mamai who refuses to sculpt her own body.If his hands were more diligent, wouldn’t Ms. Nana not have to sculpt so hard~]

Lying Gun Mamayi: [? ? ? ? 】

Except for Mamayi himself, upon hearing this, the surrounding puppets immediately nodded in response:

[Yes!That's it! 】

[It's the same as doing your own things. Dolls should carve themselves the way they want. Isn't this common sense!You have to trouble Miss Nana for everything! 】

【Immediately put my responsibility on Ms. Nana, or the young people nowadays... (Auntie sighs)】

Hello!Is it too much? !

According to the qualifications of being made into a puppet, I am obviously the biggest one among you, okay? ?

Even though she had no heart, Mamayi still felt a throbbing in her chest.

By the way, isn't your group of guys' doting on Ms. Nana getting more and more outrageous?Regardless of the truth, Miss Nana is an 'alchemist' on the surface!Have you ever seen an alchemist who only made the frame of the puppet and left it alone, leaving the rest to the puppet itself? !

"Everyone, this matter is really my mistake!"

Seeing that the wind of public opinion tends to turn in the direction of Mamayi, the only one who stood up to speak for the ender doll was Ruanmei:
