Chapter Seventy-One: Flickering
Natsume was silent for a long time, as if he was digesting the message that had been too impactful for him. Wang Yu didn't urge, he still maintained a sincere and sincere attitude, at least it seemed sincere and sincere. The boy smiled gently and waited for Natsume to continue communicating with him, not in a hurry or impatient, he had spent an unknown amount of time in the dark, and even his sense of time had become disordered, but he still did not give up hope.
In fact, Wang Yu didn't know that Natsume had met Sixteen Night Sakuya and Red Misuzu today, and the pain Natsume experienced was the restlessness of the body itself, after all, it was originally a body that belonged to Wang Yu. He didn't know that Flandoro Scarlett was still asleep, otherwise he would have been agitated, because even if he had taken care not to hurt Flandrew in the first place, he had taken care not to hurt Flandrew. But Yakumo Purple's forbidden quadruple enchantment was extraordinarily effective, Wang Yu had no way to detect the information of the outside world, and Natsume, the only one who could bring him information, sealed his own soul, which made Wang Yu become isolated from the world.
The god of nothingness has begun to secretly regret why he gave Natsume such an ability as "psychic ability" that has a lot to do with self-awareness, I wonder if this counts as a cocoon? But at that time, the situation was critical, and the opportunity could not be lost again, nine percent of Wang Hao's abilities came from aliens, only psionic energy was not restricted by race, although the spells of the dragon and dungeon system were barely feasible, but the need for spellcasting materials itself was a deduction, God knows if this ignorant mind would expose itself when looking for materials, so it could only stimulate its own psychic ability.
Yes, their own psychic abilities. Wang Yu has a hidden psionic talent in his soul, which is something he discovered after becoming a demon for a long time, but having such a power system as psionic energy does not do much good to him who is already very strong, and it is a pity to abandon it because it is tasteless, so he simply didn't care about it, but just collected some psychic abilities out of curiosity and stored them in his mind. In fact, Wang Hao's own ability system should be a Shapemaker or Soul Blade, but when the soul of a god expresses this talent, he can easily reverse several other abilities, after all, he can easily parse the essence of psionic energy, such as looking at palm prints.
If I just entered Gensokyo ordinarily, maybe I'm already a psychic in a quiet corner now.
Wang Hao thought bitterly, and his blood-red eyes stayed on Natsume's body for a few more moments.
It's like the other me in front of me.
Wang Yu thought about the relationship between Natsume and himself when he was bored, they shared part of the three souls, although they were connected to each other, but the connection was not too close, at least not more closely than the "Wang Hao" that Wang Yu personally sent back to his original world to replace him a long time ago. If that Wang Yu is a subset of Wang Yu, then Wang Yu and Natsume are more like two independent individuals, two collections that only partially intersect, but the size is very different, even to the point that Natsume looks more like a small worm parasitic on the huge collection of Wang Yu, but Natsume himself is unconscious.
Wang Yu also sees Natsume in this way.
A little worm parasitic on itself, an independent mind born by accident, a shield that can be used until you get out of trouble.
Natsume's appearance was not expected by Wang Hui, because being sealed by Yakumo Zi was not in his expectation, so Wang Yu did not have a good impression of Natsume, especially when this little thing that occupied the magpie's nest tried in vain to strangle himself and the original owner of this life, "no good feeling" escalated to killing intent and disgust.
When he got out of trouble, it was the day when everything in Natsume was erased.
As for how to let this fool who is very wary of himself help him get out of trouble, Wang Hao has his own preparations.
The young man stared at the pure white ball of light in front of him, and his smile became brighter and warmer.
Natsume flickered twice, and finally slowly spoke:
[How can I believe that what you say is true?, I can't even bring the memories here to life, even if it's to show sincerity, should you undo the effect on my memory?]
"You're the good guy for that, my friend. I haven't touched any of your memories, and I can't even observe them now. It's the enchantment left by the old woman that you're recalling, and unless you can find its loopholes, you won't even be able to bring out even the slightest bit of information about "Wang Yu", which also gives me a headache. 】
[How big of a festival is there between you to make her so guarded?]
[The festival between us is as big as the universe, but the main reason is that every wisp of my thoughts can be turned into a doppelganger, and calling my name sincerely will allow me to perceive everything around the caller, she is not only to torture me, but also to set up such a careful seal for safety reasons. 】
[If you are really as powerful as you say, why are you still sealed by the "old woman" in your mouth. 】
Wang Hao sighed helplessly and calmly.
[First, it was because she suddenly fought for her life, I didn't expect it. The second reason is that she is stronger than I imagined, stronger than me. 】
[Then wouldn't I provoke her if I help you?]
Natsume was extremely calm, he was not confused by the powerful power in Wang Yu's mouth, perhaps this had something to do with his extremely low materialistic desires.
Wang Yu laughed instead.
[No, on the contrary, it is safest for you to help me. The old woman also paid a considerable price when she sealed me, in fact, the two of us had fought before, and both were defeated, although she was slightly better this time, but she was really in worse shape than me. Do you think she'll miss such a great opportunity when she recovers? I'm sealed in your body now, and you're at that level from us...... Too far away. 】
Natsume retracted her light and remained silent.
And Wang Yu struck while the iron was hot and continued to bewitch:
[Natsume, think about it, we've been in contact so many times, but how many times have I shown ill will to you? Trying to replace you? never. The help I have sought from you all along has only one purpose – to get out of trouble. It may be offensive to say that, but you and your Earth Spirit Temple are too small for us to even pay attention to. The war between me and the old woman will not burn on you, and you will be safer if I am separated from you. You're smart, and I think you can figure it out. 】
Wang Hao's expression was still sincere, but there was more majesty and indifference in the clouds. He lowered his eyes and whispered:
[Let the gods and demons return to the gods and demons, and the mortals to the mortals.] 】
