Prologue XI: This Life

The picture of the previous life was already over when I stabbed the dagger of the contract into my heart, and the screen in front of me became dim as if there was no signal at this time, and I was still thinking about why Avigne showed a stunned expression before she died, but unfortunately, no matter how much I thought about it, I couldn't get the answer, but even if I got the answer, it would be meaningless, after all, all I have to do now is to live in this life.

"The past is the past......"

Thinking back to the scenes that have just changed from front of me, there are bitterness, bitterness, sweetness, pain, and happiness, but no matter how you recall, it is only in the past after all, but the feeling of being mixed is really uncomfortable, thinking, I can't help but sigh.

At this moment, the dim screen lit up again, and I didn't want to dwell too much on the past, so I fell back to the screen......

The first thing that caught my eye was a sparse woodland, some of these trees were about 12 meters high, some were more than 20 meters high, different kinds, they were planted in a mess on this green and yellow flat land, because the picture was looking down from above, so it did have a sparse feeling from the picture, but when the picture turned, the sight fell from the air to the woods, and then looking ahead, I felt that the shadows of the trees in the woods were longing, and there was no sparse feeling when looking down from above.

The woods have long since lost their former tranquility, and from the pictures displayed on the screen at this time, you can see that there are several corpses of special guards wearing body armor and bulletproof helmets lying to the ground, these special guards are dying in a terrible state, some of their heads have been split in half by sharp weapons, and red blood and white brains are mixed and splashed next to the corpses; Some of them were brutally beheaded directly by sharp weapons, and the eyes that were open in anger because of unwillingness, and the blood sprayed from the neck from time to time with steaming heat also made it unspeakably terrifying; Some of them were even more inhumanely dismembered, its hands and feet were cut into several pieces and scattered next to the corpse without hands and feet and head, and the head that fell on the side of the corpse was also crushed in half, and the piercing blood infected the flat ground under the corpse into a blood red; All these things make this woodland as shocking as a bloody hell, and just looking at it makes people chill and shiver.

I was very impressed by this picture, because it was the first scene I saw when I came to 'this life', and I was also a little startled by this shocking scene because of my rich experience.

At this moment, there was suddenly an additional figure in his sight, he was not tall, wearing a black tight-fitting ninja suit, perhaps because of the close range of killings, so his ninja suit had been dyed with a lot of red and white things, making it look quite dirty, he was still holding a small knife in his hand, and there were a few drops of blood on the body of the knife that reflected the cold luster under the faint falling sun, and the blood beads slid along the sharp, curved blade in an arc, and then dripped to the ground after the tip of the knife stagnated for a moment, A splash of blood splattered.

"After I got out of here, I guessed too...... If I'm correct, this guy is actually just here to behead this body to ensure the complete extinction of this body, after all, the original owner of this body seems to have died before I came......"

The reason why I made such a guess was because I didn't get any memories of the original owner of this body when I fused this body, and although this ninja was also wary when he came to me, he looked at me as if he had seen a dead person, and he raised the small knife in his hand almost without any defense, and slashed at my neck with the door wide open.

At the last moment, the power that came from nowhere made me regain my mobility, I fell to the ground and suddenly rolled sideways, avoiding the small knife that fell, and when this ninja was shocked by my 'resurrection', I raised my right foot when I was lying on the ground, like a whip swept towards the ninja's leg socket, and the ninja who still did not react was swept into the leg socket by me, and my legs and feet were soft and I couldn't help kneeling down, and I stood up, put my hands together to form a hammer, and after lifting to a certain height, I hit the back of the ninja's head straight down.

It took less than three seconds to lift and hammer down, and the ninja who could react from my magical 'resurrection' didn't have time to respond, and was hit in the back of the head by my hammer with a slight sound of wind, and under the huge impact, the ninja didn't even have time to remind his partners to stay away from here, so he rolled his eyes directly, and was beaten by me and fainted to the ground, and then I didn't give him a way to live, but snatched the small knife held by the ninja, and stuck it in the back of the head of the unconscious ninja with both hands.

The smelting technology of this era is often powerful, which can be seen from the fact that when I inserted the small knife backhand, it only took eighty percent of the force to insert the small knife into the ninja's skull, and the unconscious ninja didn't even have time to say a word, and was killed by me in a coma.

I didn't know how long I would last at this point, but I could feel that with my current physical condition, I probably wouldn't be able to support it for too long, and then I glanced around and saw that I couldn't see any ninja accomplices around for a while, so I chose a random direction to carefully avoid the dead branches that would make a noise, and left the woodland.

On the way, the ninja's accomplices seemed to notice his death and my disappearance, and as I cautiously walked forward, I could hear the birdsong from time to time in the distance behind me, but I didn't believe it was just a simple birdsong, because I had barely heard any birdsong since I left the place I had fled, so I guessed that this birdsong should be a signal for the ninja to communicate in the woods, although it is not clear why they used birdsong as a communication signal instead of using a communication tool, but I didn't have time to think about these things during the escape.

Unfortunately, the ninja tracking was obviously not something I could avoid at this time, and I was about to leave the woodland when I was spotted by a ninja.

The ninja was obviously quite shocked by my 'resurrection', as he could tell from the fact that he was stunned when he saw me running through the gap between the trees, but he recovered much faster than the ninja who came to destroy my body, and he reacted in just two seconds, followed by a loud birdsong echoing through the trees......

I didn't pay any attention to the ninja, because I could already faintly hear the sound of the river flowing, and when I rushed out of the woodland, I saw a river about three hundred meters away from the woodland, and at the same time, the ninja who was following me also caught up, and he raised his hand and threw three quadrangular shuriken at me, and the three pitch-black quadrangular shuriken scattered in the air, spinning, accompanied by a low, inaudible whistling sound, and covering me like a pitch-black palm with only three fingers.

Although I can't see the quadripartite shuriken flying from behind, but the low whistling sound is still captured by my sensitive hearing in this relatively quiet environment, when I judged that the sound came from above the head, I didn't recklessly continue to rush forward, although I haven't encountered the ninja's means, but not encountered it doesn't mean that I haven't seen it, whether it's in the movie or in the anime, ninjas rarely throw only one when throwing hidden weapons, from this consideration, since the sound comes from above, and it doesn't feel dense, It was obviously not a good idea to continue to rush forward, so I stopped for a moment, and then I rolled down to the right.

In less than a second when I rolled away, three pitch-black quadripartite shuriken flew past my side and head, accompanied by the muffled sound of "chirping ......", the three quadripartite shuriken pierced into the ground only one step away from me almost at the same time, they almost all submerged into the earthy yellow ground, leaving only a pitch-black sharp corner exposed on the ground, from this strength it can be seen that its power is not weaker than the strength of ordinary bows and arrows, if I don't avoid it one step in advance, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape if I am hit by it, I won't forget that ninja shurikens are usually painted with **.

After avoiding the ninja raid one step ahead, I didn't choose to fight back, but staggered up slightly and continued to run towards the river.

The ninja who chased after him couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he saw the boy avert his killing move, and then he chased after him, while reaching out and touching his waist, but there was no unexpected cold touch in his hand, which made him unexpectedly glance at his waist, and when he saw that the shuriken that should have been hanging on his waist was gone, he suddenly remembered that he had used up all the shuriken he was carrying in the fight just now, and this discovery made him secretly grit his teeth and be quite annoyed.

He could see at a glance the boy's destination, and although he didn't think that the boy could really jump into the river without dying, his superiors had given orders to see people in life and corpses in death, so he was annoyed, so he also quickened his pace and chased after the boy who was running in a straight line.

At this time, I was less than 100 meters away from the river, and the sound of the river that was faintly audible was obvious at this time, it sounded "la-la-......la-la", just listening to the sound, I could feel that the river was not gentle, but very turbulent, I raised my eyes to look, and I could faintly see a white line gradually appearing on the horizon, and from time to time was thrown into the air with white light of the water droplets.

I just glanced at the river that was gradually appearing in front of me, and then turned my attention behind me......

I saw that the ninja who was originally seventy meters away from me was less than sixteen meters away from me at this time, and he chased after me with a very fast pace, his short legs were like hot wheels, and almost everywhere he passed was pulled out a shallow leg shadow, and the vague scene made ordinary people probably dazzled directly when they saw it, right? And it was almost eight or nine meters per second, almost as fast as the fastest athlete in my original world.

And I'm not that far from him, and with his relative speed to mine at this point, he only needs to run at his current speed for another four seconds to catch up with me, and four seconds later...... I couldn't help but look at the river, and in four seconds I was probably still fifty or sixty meters away from the river, in other words, if I didn't avoid his pursuit, I wouldn't have had enough time to jump into the river.

I couldn't help but grit my teeth, and in a flash of thought, the countermeasures came to mind, and I didn't have time to think about and perfect the details, and after counting silently for two seconds, I leaned down and jumped to the left...... Just as I was leaping into the air, the cold blade happened to pass less than three centimeters from my side, and the light reflected by the blade made me squint my eyes as I jumped up.

Falling from mid-air, when I was about to touch the ground, I stretched out my hands and propped myself on the ground scattered with gravel, dead branches, and fallen leaves, and my immature palms were punctured by the debris on the ground in a blink of an eye, and the tingling sensation followed, but I did not waver in the slightest, and after flipping forward, I resumed my standing posture, and then ran forward again.

My tenacity was beyond the ninja's expectations, he didn't expect that the boy who had been slaughtered just now became so difficult, surprised, anger also immediately surged into his heart, the resentment of the lord did not succeed and the sadness of the death of his companion haunted his mind, as soon as his mind was hot, the ninja raised his right hand with full of resentment and anger, and his eyes full of murderous intent were firmly fixed on the boy who was still running forward, and after a little aiming, the small knife held in his right hand did not hesitate to come out of his hand and shoot at the boy's back.

"Give me death!"

I still remember the roar of the ninja when he threw the small knife in his hand, but although he threw it quickly, it was not as fast as the sound wave that came from his roar, so when I heard the roar from his mouth, I realized that it was not good, I decisively took another side leap, narrowly avoided the key point, and only let the small knife make a hole about two centimeters long and half a centimeter deep in the shoulder of the left armDrop by drop, drop by piece, was thrown into the air, and then I left it behind and fell to the ground with gravel, dead branches, and fallen leaves.

The ninja's repeated misses finally made me barely make it to the river.

The river is about 12 meters wide, perhaps because the riverbed is deep enough, so at a glance, except for the obvious transparent color on the bank, you can see the bottom of the river at a glance, but the middle of the river is full of turquoise, it is really as turbulent as I thought, except for some dead branches and broken leaves, there are one after another small whirlpools, the turbulent river water can not extinguish these whirling whirlpools, but more like cheering for it, let it with the ups and downs of the river sometimes bigger, sometimes smaller, Just the first time I saw this river, a wave of despair came to my heart.

I originally thought that this kind of river in the depths of the mountains and forests could not be compared to the river no matter how turbulent it was, but the scene in front of me undoubtedly overturned my common sense, I raised my eyes, from time to time I could see the dead branches and broken leaves were swept into it by the whirlpools that were sometimes large and sometimes small, and disappeared in a blink of an eye, although these whirlpools are not big, but considering that I am not even a meter high now, this small whirlpool is more dangerous for me, and it is easy to be swept into the bottom of the river by it if I don't pay attention, and then ...... There is no then.

"If you don't jump, you will die, and if you jump, you may still have a chance of life...... It's really easy to understand. ”

I sighed in my head, and at this time, the distance between the river and the distance on the screen meant that 'I' had made a choice......

"I remember I fell unconscious after jumping into the river......"

The thought popped into my mind as I looked at the screen that had suddenly darkened again, and I couldn't help but feel emotional, I thought I was lucky enough because after jumping into the river and falling unconscious, I managed to survive and avoid the ninjas for the time being.

When I woke up, I found that I had been washed away by the river on a gentle bank, and I didn't know where it was, but now was obviously not the time to think about it, because the wound on my shoulder was protesting against my cranial nerves, and the wound had turned white after the river had soaked it, and the blood had not flowed out of it, but if I didn't bandage it properly, it would be terrible if I was infected.

Before treating the wound, I first found a place to hide my body, and as soon as I thought about it, I looked at the surrounding environment, which was not much different from the environment I was in when I woke up, it was a forest, and since I had no choice, I naturally walked into the woods, and as I walked forward, I also began to deal with the traces that fell behind me......

While I found a relatively hidden place in the woods to rest for a while, I also began to deal with the wound on my shoulder, because I did not have any wound medicine at hand, so I searched around, and only found that I could only tear a section from the good quality clothes on my body, wring it out with my hands, and then bandaging the wound, and after treating the wound on my shoulder, I finally had some time to start checking the current condition of this body.

After a slight examination of my body, I found that the inexplicable strength that had sustained me and given me a rival or even superior possession to an adult had disappeared—in fact, when I woke up, I found that my whole body was sore; Secondly, my body strangely did not feel hungry, as if I had never done intense exercise before I fell into a coma—in fact, my body was already weak; Again, I noticed that the skin of this body was quite white and tender, and I could always feel an elasticity when I pinched my face - baby fat for short.

On top of that, I was surprised to find a ...... around my neck that was so light that I barely felt the weight Necklace? The reason why I'm not sure it's a necklace is because there are no jade beads, silver beads, or gold beads connected by this red thread, but only two gold rings, but I have to admit that the shape of these two gold rings is indeed quite chic.

One of the two rings is carved into a lifelike nine-clawed golden dragon, it soars above the golden clouds, its huge (relative to the area of the ring) body, the hooked dragon claws are looming in the golden clouds, it opens its mouth and roars, and there is a golden bead surrounded by flames floating in its mouth, its first impression is that it is extremely majestic, and it is like a master who holds the power of life and death in the world is watching you, just looking at you, It makes you feel like you're just an insignificant stone, incomparably small and humble.

Another ring is carved into a phoenix that also looks lifelike, it spreads its wings and flies high in the golden clouds, surrounded by flames, the body in the clouds and flames looms, the nine phoenix tails are spread out like a peacock with the screen open, and the tail can also see a cluster of burning flames, its crested head is raised high, and the open beak of the chicken seems to be crying, it gives people the first impression that it is not unparalleled majesty, but is showing its most beautiful posture, giving people an incomparably noble, incomparably gorgeous, An unattainable and wonderful feeling.

They take different forms and give people different feelings, but they all have one thing in common - mystery.

If the impression of the dragon ring to me is an illusion of dominating the world, then the impression of the phoenix ring to me is the world of phoenixes, but what catches my attention the most is the mystery it faintly reveals, as if the feelings I feel now are just its surface, and there are secrets hidden in its depths that ordinary people can't reach......

But whether it is the appearance of this body's fine skin and tender flesh, or the high-quality clothes on its body, or even the two gold rings that you can know at a glance to be very precious, all indicate the fact that the original owner of this body is not ordinary, but unfortunately, because I have not received any memory of the previous owner of this body, all I can do now is to take one step and one step until the truth is ascertained.

After the examination, I fell into a light sleep, a little tired, and I don't know how long later, I suddenly heard a noise in the quiet woods...... This sound is like the "rustling" sound of a tree branch swaying after being blown by the wind, but this sound is quite abrupt in the quiet woods, and it also woke me up in a light sleep, I opened my eyes to see that the sky was still bright, thinking of the "rustle" sound just now, I suddenly lost interest in continuing to rest.

"There was almost no sound in the woods when I was resting, and considering that I was still being hunted down, it must have been made by the ninja who came to chase me when he crossed over the branches, right?"

There's a reason why I think so, because in both movies and anime, ninjas are flying around, and their favorite thing to use as a stepping foot when they shuttle through the woods is undoubtedly the branch, although I don't know if the ninjas here are like this, but it's obviously better to pay more attention than not to pay attention, and then, I walked out of the hideout and walked slowly in the general direction where the sound came.

My judgment and attention were not in vain, when I walked forward less than a hundred meters, I found a ninja in a black tight ninja suit on a thick tree fork, his body was slightly bent, his right hand held the hilt of the sword, and his feet crossed on a branch that was not thick, the strange thing is that this not thick branch did not bend or even break because of this, as if the ninja did not exist, it was still standing, and his eyes like a falcon were slowly scanning the surrounding environment.

From the first time I saw him, I knew that this ninja must have come to hunt me down, otherwise why would he drill into this deep mountain and old forest? I can't help but feel a little sorry for it, if I had killed the ninja before I jumped into the river, maybe I could have delayed it longer and had more time to rest, but now...... I cautiously looked up, and instead of falling directly on the ninja, I fell to his side, focusing on him out of the corner of my eye.

"I don't have the strength to climb a tree, and I ...... I don't know how ninjas can fly around. ”

Looking at the ninja standing on the branch and looking around, I couldn't help but sigh softly, now my body is still in a state of weakness, and I don't know if the previous state of divine help can reappear, so I thought about it, and I couldn't think of a suitable solution that could ensure that this ninja could be solved with one blow, but no matter what, only by luring him to the ground first, so that I could kill him, if he stayed in the tree, then I could only stare dryly.

In order to lure him to the ground, I first retreated a distance, until the distance between me and him was about 100 meters (I could no longer see each other), I looked for a small high slope, disguised myself as if I had walked here, and then at the other end of the small high slope I randomly found a stone and threw it forward, and after making a small noise, I went around to a small cliff about a meter high next to the small high slope and hid.

This small movement was heard far away in the woods that had regained its tranquility, and the ninja who was looking around obviously heard this movement, accompanied by a "rustling" sound like a tree branch being blown by the wind, and the ninja took a long time to come to the bottom of the small high slope where I deliberately left a trace, and from his point of view, it was impossible to see me hidden behind the small broken wall, so his eyes naturally fell on the traces I deliberately left at this time.

As I expected, the ninja on top of the tree jumped down from the tree when he saw the mark, crouched down on the mark, looked at it carefully, and then walked down the small slope...... The ninja walked almost silently, deliberately avoiding the noise-making debris, and followed the trail to the small high slope, and then he was surprised to find that the trail had suddenly disappeared.

Realizing that something was wrong, the ninja turned his head and looked around, suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he found that there was an inexplicable black shadow on his side, and the black shadow rushed towards him at a very fast speed, almost in the blink of an eye, the ninja saw the appearance of the black shadow clearly, but before the ninja was happy to find the target, he suddenly threw an object from the boy's hand, and it shot over with a slight scream from the breaking wind, and its target was the ninja's head, with the distance between the two sides at this time less than twenty meters, leaving the ninja with little time to react, so the ninja instinctively chose to dodge, only to see his body suddenly bend backwards, his hands on the ground for about a second, when the object flew past him with the sound of "whoosh" breaking wind, his legs kicked hard at the right time, made a backflip and then staggered to the ground, barely recovering his standing posture.

Before the ninja could stand firmly, he saw the boy's figure low, his right hand was clenched into a fist and flush with his waist, and then his feet kicked and jumped up in the air and rushed to the ninja who had not yet stood firm, and the right fist that was level with the waist also swung out, attacking the ninja's head, this rush, a punch was fierce, although the ninja couldn't figure out why the boy could exert such strength, but he didn't want to be shot in the head by the boy like this, so he reluctantly bent his body backwards again, planning to do another backflip to avoid the boy's fierce attack.

Unexpectedly, when the ninja bent down, the boy's menacing punch suddenly changed......

When the boy jumped up just now, the ninja still didn't understand why he did this, well, although this did strengthen the momentum and strength of his punch, but if the ninja had already stood firm, with the advantage of leg length, he could have kicked the boy away, but everything was nothing, the boy just got stuck in the situation that he had not yet stood firm, and he couldn't exert force to launch an attack, but now the ninja finally understood why the boy jumped up lightly, it turned out that the boy's menacing punch was just an illusion, The reason why he jumped up was just to force himself to mistakenly think that the other party was going to give him a headshot, but in fact, the boy's jump was just to stop the momentum in front of the ninja, and then the boy's sideways spin and kick was the real killer move!

No matter how much the ninja can endure it, he can't bear the pain when he is directly hit ~ Neko, the target of the boy's foot is the ninja's life~ Genzi, although he couldn't fully stand firm, but the force of the kick with the forward force is beyond the ninja's imagination, his life~ Neko is like being viciously hit by a 20-kilogram dumbbell, accompanied by a low muffled sound, life~ Neko was suddenly kicked with the balls, The incomparably severe pain made the ninja who was very able to bear it couldn't help but let out a high-decibel scream, which really resounded in all directions.

To be honest, I didn't plan to kick his life~ Genzi, but in that inexplicable, like a state of divine help, my thinking is extremely rational, considering that I can't shoot the opponent in the head with one punch, my target is naturally placed in the place where the enemy is most likely to lose combat effectiveness - the ninja who is about to backflip obviously leaks out of his lower body, so the target of my attack naturally falls on the ninja's life~ Genzi, And the facts in front of me also proved that my blow had exactly the effect I wanted......

was crushed by my kick~ The ninja of the root has long been unable to complete the somersault at this time, he is like a shrimp in the sea bowed and fell to the ground, and his hands also unconsciously covered the vital point of the crushed lower body, and the mouth screamed miserably, and his eyes also revealed indescribable fear and resentment, but he curled up into a bow at this time completely lost his ability to fight, and the pain of the root being crushed stimulated him almost fainted, However, years of training made him unable to fall into a coma under the protection of his body's instincts, but made him feel the incomparably sharp pain from his lower body more clearly, and this torment made him feel more painful and hopeless than any torture.

Seeing that the ninja had completely lost his combat effectiveness due to the incomparably severe pain, I didn't tease him in an inexplicable state, but just walked in front of him, and in his fearful and resentful gaze, he pulled out the small knife bound to his waist, held it in both hands, and the tip of the knife hung down to the ninja's neck, and then waved the small knife in his hand like playing golf, and the sharp blade silently cut into the ninja's neck, and the ninja's skin could barely hinder it from being broken by it at all, and after blinking, The blade completely severed two-thirds of the ninja's neck, and the piercing blood spilled through the cracks, and then gradually soaked the ninja's costume around the neck......

After making sure that the ninja had been killed, I looted his belongings, in addition to a small sword and seven square shuriken that he was carrying, there was also a small bag, in addition to a nameplate engraved with numbers and the word 'ninja', there were also a few pieces of compressed dry food, a bottle of wound dressing, considering that the scream he just made was very likely to alarm the ninjas in the vicinity, so I quickly left here, and returned to the bank of the river while taking dry food, After a little care of the wound on my shoulder, I left the place along the river.

After that, it lasted for more than a year, nearly two years, and the forces behind this group of ninjas were obviously quite huge, even if I left the mountains and forests and came to the small town and city, I was not able to avoid the ninjas, and after I had a certain understanding of this world, I began to plan to escape from the earth circle and go to a new colony located at the L5 Grand Point of the universe: Plant.

I have to say that I was quite lucky, I managed to get rid of the ninjas who were chasing me, infiltrated the cargo hold of the civilian shuttle, and finally managed to reach the December of the plant, that is, the Pisces Palace.

When I arrived in December, I finally got almost a month of leisure, because I didn't have an identity card, so I was equivalent to a black household in December, basically no treatment at all, fortunately the adjuster was not as bad as a natural person, I was able to get some alms when I met a good Samaritan, and a good Samaritan suggested that I go to live in a shelter established by the Supreme Council, but I didn't know if the ninja could still hunt me down, So I just nodded yes on the surface, but in fact I was still doing the work of a beggar...... It can be said that only then did I have enough time to think about my background and my future.

However, the idle time was soon broken, and I don't know where the ninjas found out about the fact that I had escaped from the geosphere, but they eventually found out and sent the ninjas to hunt them down...... In the face of the seemingly never-ending pursuit of ninjas, sometimes I even wonder if I was born with the Orientals. Otherwise, why would you encounter these scum who are disgusting people, whether in your previous life or in this life? Of course, it cannot be denied that there are some good people among the Orientals, but I have only met one of these good people so far.

"Who is this girl? It feels so familiar......"

The picture gradually shifted to the moment before I fell unconscious, in the picture, the girl's petite figure, hip-length pink hair, and those bright, but frightened dark blue eyes all felt familiar to me, but for a moment I couldn't remember who she was......

She ...... Who is it? ”

The whole space gradually fell into darkness again, but in my mind, I was still thinking about the somewhat familiar, yet unfamiliar figure.
