Chapter 281: Oriental Young Spirit Dream

Every time they look at Lumia frowning at the dinner table, players can't help but ask: What is the food of the monsters?

According to the previous plot, youkai eat people, and for them, people are the food of youkai, just like rabbits and goats are human rations. For human beings, eating is a must, they don't think about the will to eat, they need to eat and eat.

And what about youkai? Do they also disregard the will of humans and eat as much as they want? Doesn't Lumia do the same?

As the game unfolds, these questions are answered one by one.

The appearance of Yakumo Purple makes the bright atmosphere take a turn for the worse, and the BGM also becomes gloomy and depressing, and the players at this time control the weak Lumia to meet the bland Yakumo Purple in the silent forest, and the two have to chat a few words as if they are reunited with old friends. Yakumo Zi looked at Lumia, who was weak and her stomach was rumbling, and said lightly: "What you really want to eat is humans!"

From her explanation, the player learns a piece of news, and that is: youkai live by eating people, and if they don't eat people, they will die.

There are two roads in front of many players, one is a big road with light, and at the end of the road Grandma and Reimu are beckoning there, and the other is a jumping rugged sheep intestine path, and at the end of the road is Yakumo Purple looking back sideways, and the meaning of this scene is equivalent to two futures in front of you. The former is to renounce cannibalism and die generously, while the latter is to break promises and follow desires......

Faced with this choice, players are extremely entangled.

They like Lumia, although she is a monster, but she is no longer a cannibal, she has been redeemed, she has reformed, but the desire to be a monster is still tormenting her, watching her get thinner and thinner, the way she doesn't belong, from the player's point of view, seeing the pain of her favorite character, naturally she won't be happy, if you want to make her happy, it's very simple, but the price is a human life, which is unacceptable to a psychologically normal person.

The ancients said that "the prodigal son does not change his money when he turns back", but now that she has turned back, there is no way ahead, only cannibalism or death!

To eat, or not to eat, that's the question!

However, just as most of the players were about to take a step into the light, Lumia suddenly lost control and retreated, and instead of taking the two paths in front of her, she explored in the direction of the darkness around her......

After saying goodbye to Yakumo, she was in a bad mood.

The body longs for the flesh and blood of human beings, but her heart is afraid, because once she eats human beings, she will change back to the way she used to be like a walking corpse, she doesn't want to lose the life and happiness she has now, in order to keep the last pure land in her heart, and in order not to hurt Grandma and Reimu, she silently left the shrine, and returned to the forest that gave birth to her alone, enduring the torment from the body, with her own will, grandma's gentleness, the innocence of Reimu and all the good bits and pieces of the past, resisting, resisting......

On the second day of Lumia's disappearance, the player controls the little reimu to come out to find Lumia, the little face that is always smiling, at this time with tears, shouting and looking for it, she walks through her favorite lively market without looking at it, she walks through the flower field where she picks flowers but her steps are hurried, she finds the forest, she shouts loudly, but she doesn't know, just beside her, in the grass not far away, Lumia is hiding there, at this time she can no longer suppress the instinct of her body.

The fire of desire burned in her mind, and the line of defense of reason was also eroded by desire, gradually collapsing, she stimulated her body with pain, vented her desire on herself, and tore her arm like a beast, blood flowed from her mouth, it was a bewitching and weird red, with a monster's broken heart inside.

"Grandma, Lumia is gone, will I never see her again?"

"No, Lumia loves Reimu the most, she'll be back!"

The sensual player began to cry, Lumia's persistence, Reimu's innocence, and Grandma's gentleness, this is the bond that maintains the relationship between the three people, and it is also the bond that connects the three of them......

What Lumia asks for is nothing more than an ordinary and ordinary life, as long as she can be happy with the smiling Reimu under the knees of her grandmother, she will be satisfied, but the desire to be a monster makes her unable to even achieve this little wish, is this God's punishment for monsters?

If you don't know, you won't be in pain, and whenever you can't bear it, you want to commit suicide, but Reimu and Grandma's voice and smile make her persist through night after night, and every time she gets up weakly the next day, she will think about a question: "If I was killed in the first place, maybe it wouldn't be so painful now, right?"

"If you don't get saved, you won't know what feelings are, right?"

"If, without all this, Reimu and Grandma wouldn't be sad, would they?"

……

Looking at Lumia who is becoming more and more desperate, even if the player has a thousand words in his heart, he can't show that he can only watch Lumia vent her energy and desire frantically in the forest alone.

If you don't click on this game in the first place, you won't cry, if you don't buy this game in the first place, you won't get hurt, and if you don't know the news in the first place, you won't be unable to get out.

Rumia's crazy venting, the players saw it and felt it, even Yakumo Purple and Grandma saw it.

Just when everyone thought that Grandma would save Lumia again, Lumia, which the player controlled, started a battle with Grandma. After a simple hand-to-hand fight, it's time for a cutscene.

Grandma pulled out an identical "Lumia" from behind her, and she explained it to Lumia, and also to the players, but everyone thought she was explaining to herself-

"Your attribute is darkness, which represents the night, and if you die, the natural order will collapse, so I found an identical you to replace your existence. ”

After saying that, Grandma put on the mask again, and what she had said at the market seemed like yesterday, but now she closed herself up again, and that happy time seemed to be sealed, as if it did not exist......

However, this time is the most important memory of Lumia from birth to the present, and it is also the only driving force that supports her fight against desire, and it is her most cherished treasure. I would rather suppress my instincts, would rather give up my life, and save the treasure, but now I have to be defeated by the grandmother of the treasure itself.

It can be felt that this time, Grandma came with murderous intent, she really wanted to kill herself, and the most important thing was that she wanted to find a replacement......

Am I a rag doll that can be replaced?

Is my existence meaningless?

Are all my memories fake?

Is all the pain I suffer lying to me?

So, why on earth am I alive......

Lumia's mental defense collapsed under Grandma's words one after another, her heart returned to darkness, and the last tears were left in her eyes: "Those words... Those words... All the words...... Are they all lies?"

Grandma's mask on her face made it difficult to see her expression, but her voice was so resolute: "Yes!"

The players' eyes widened with disbelief.

This is the grandma we know, the grandma with a gentle smile, the grandma who wants to save everyone?

In a daze, Lumia, controlled by the player, was instantly taken away by Grandma's full force.

Incredible players used the save to get here quickly, but nothing changed anything......

At this time, a smart person suddenly mentioned whether there were two paths before, and there was a problem with the choice made by the player.

This sentence is like a lifesaver, everyone uses the save to return to this plot, but no matter what the player does, they can't make Lumia in their control take a step forward, she seems to be separated from her will and body, and the player can only watch her go down the third path, towards death, towards the end of the rupture.

Finally, the players broke out, and they controlled Lumia to frantically attack Grandma, who shattered everyone's illusions, and no one cared about the trivial matter that Lumia in the outbreak state could tie with Grandma. The players, including Lumia on screen, are already out of anger.

That happy time not only saved Lumia, but also made many players happy. They were also happy for a few people off-screen, they celebrated with their crowns, they danced with their hands, and some people even deliberately drew their memories with a brush and took them to the same platform to communicate.

That happy time was just a lie, Grandma didn't want to save herself, just for the dark night of mankind, in order for the laws of nature not to be destroyed, she didn't care if the person who controlled the night was herself......

The players had red eyes, dodging the endless cannonballs, and listening to the endless cynicism of the woman named "Grandma" opposite, when a thought flashed through everyone's hearts again, "Is this really Grandma?"

"This is the strongest trick of the Hakurei Shrine, and if you can't take it, it's death!"

"Why, why? Even the last hypocritical routine will not be left to me...... Even if the happiness of the past is hypocritical...... But that's all my memory! In the end, why is I still the only one left......

The powerful and incomparable grandma used the strongest trick passed down from the Hakurei shrine, and Rumia, who was completely devastated, also used her strongest trick, even if she was defeated, she had to use all her strength to wake her up...... However, to everyone's surprise, the energy bullet shot by the Dream God disappeared in the next moment, and Lumia's trick penetrated time and space to hit Grandma's body under her own frightened face, shattering her mask and the fragile heart of the human being.

Yakumo Zi's side, who had been watching the play just now, turned into a spirit rune and fell in the wind at this time, it was really something made by Grandma, but it was not a prop to replace Lumia as everyone thought.

It's all her scam.

"I've gotten the happiness I wanted...... Thank you, so next...... It's your turn to be happy, so your darkness ...... It's up to me to bear it. ”

With the last of her strength, Grandma sealed Lumia's power and tied her hairband around her head, and then died in Lumia's arms with a happy smile of relief.

Completely sealed, Lumia became a child, she lost all her memories, she ate her grandma under the inexplicable guidance, she devoured the darkness she needed for her life, she no longer needed to eat people, she was saved, from soul to body......

Seeing her friend die at the hands of Rumia, Yakumo Murasaki, who knew the result earlier, wanted to get to know her very much, but when she thought of her grandmother's soft smile, she couldn't do it at all.

"Rejoice as much as you like, with the share of another person, there is nothing in this world that binds you, you can enjoy your favorite mood, and live happily. ”

After listening to Yakumo Murasaki's words, Rumia, who had forgotten everything, looked at the blue sky and showed an innocent smile that once belonged to Reimu alone.

The players control Yakumo Purple back to the shrine, and from a distance, they see Xiao Reimu sitting alone on the steps in front of the shrine, she is waiting for Grandma to bring Lumia back, but unfortunately the players who know everything know that she can't wait for them anymore.

"Little Reimu, it's very cold at the gate, but you'll catch a cold after a long time!"

However, at this time, Reimu was not as lively as she used to be, she lost the bright smile on her face, she just sat there blankly, and said with her mouth open and closed: "I have to wait a little longer, Grandma said...... Lumia will be back...... She's going to love Reimu the most! Grandma will be back...... Because Grandma also likes Reimu the most, they will all come back...... Really?"

Yakumo Purple cried, Xiao Reimu cried, and the player cried...... No one can stop the tears, just like the heavy rain that falls from the sky, and the heavens and the earth are silent.

Yakumo Purple is gone, taking away Reimu's memories, she forgets the pain and sorrow, she turns back into the carefree little child, only when she sees that everyone else has a mother, she thinks, where is her mother?

On a sunny afternoon, two hearts who had forgotten everything met in the market, and the scenery here was no different from when they first watched the fireworks, but the people at this time were different, and the people who looked at each other most familiarly became the strangest people.

"Who are you?" the person in front of him was a little familiar, and Xiao Lingmeng asked with doubts. Lumia didn't care about that, although it was the first time she had seen Reimu, she pounced on it as if she had seen an old friend, hugged Reimu tightly, and grinned.

Yakumo Murasaki, who followed, introduced Reimu: "Her name is Lumia, a clumsy youkai, but she is ...... A good old man, and ......"

"Still?" Reimu, who couldn't break free, tilted his head to look at Aunt Yakumo not far away, with a puzzled expression.

"Still my loved one, my best friend!"

In a chorus of shrine maidens, the game is over.

"This is the story of Reimu is still young, the trolls are still old, and then it is the story of a shrine maiden that Yakumo has never told anyone!"
