"It's over, it's over. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info monster, you've been discovered. ”

Running desperately, although I didn't even have the direction to escape, although I didn't even have the strength to move a moment ago, but the moment the mask was removed, the moment I heard the sound of the water glass breaking, the moment I saw Megumi's expression, I already knew that I had to escape.

Running as fast as I could, my weakened body kept protesting, just like during the mission to the Land of Rain, maybe I would fall in the next second. It wasn't raining in the sky, but it was already pouring in my heart.

Last time, the captain pulled me up, who else will save me this time? Memories bared its fangs, the sharp pain of its cheeks burned by the flames, the disgusting touch of piercing its father's chest, and the cold despair of being called a monster came flooding back.

From start to finish, I never escaped that night. It's ridiculous, throwing away the name of the past, severing the connection with the past, putting on a mask to isolate myself from the outside world, I thought that no one would recognize me anymore, but every moment, there will always be someone watching me...... People can't escape their sight.

The wind swept across my cheeks, and the gentle wind brought a sense of fear that I had never felt before, because it reminded me that I was not wearing a mask.

There was no one around, but I could just feel a myriad of malicious eyes, laughing at me, laughing at my ugliness, laughing at my sin, laughing at my monster-like twisted heart.

I couldn't argue with that, I could only hide my face and run, the feeling of being exposed made me confused, I hadn't taken off my mask for too long.

Is there a forest ahead? Looks like it's already a mountainous area, right? I felt a sense of happiness in my heart that I could finally find shelter, to go to a place where there was no one, to a place where no one could see me in the dark, and I told myself, don't go back to the light, you are an alien who doesn't fit in.

"Let's go like this, run away like this, don't think about goodbye anymore, just go like this, and die alone. Or...... Just die like this, and end this pain. “

I said this to myself, but the happy memories of this time in my mind frantically flashed by, and my consciousness gradually blurred.

In the last period of time before I fell unconscious, I found a cave and hid myself in it with a sense of relief and nostalgia.

……

"Catch up with her and bring her back."

There was only this thought in my head, and I sped up like crazy, and the image of her struggling to move forward flashed in my mind, and my heart throbbed and ached.

The footprints she left behind were getting deeper and deeper, which meant that she was in a bad condition, so she could have this uncontrollable force. Near the footprints I saw recently, I could still see streaks of blood, which were coughed up during the high-speed run.

She sped up again, and there was already a barren mountain in front of her, in case she ran into a wild beast, in case she couldn't tell the difference between walking down the cliff, in case she was bitten by a poisonous snake, in case she ......

Shaking my head vigorously, I slapped myself hard. There can't be a just in case, no matter what happens, no matter what the price is, I have to bring her back, even if death harvests her soul, I will tear the god of death alive and snatch her back.

The footprints are becoming clearer and clearer, leading more and more clearly in one direction.

My heart sank, and beyond the trees, I could see that at the end of that direction was a hideous thing called a cliff.

My body trembled, and I began to feel fear.

Stiffly, I followed the footprints she had left behind, and the closer I went, the closer I got to the cliff, and the faster my heart was beating. I'm afraid, afraid to see a pool of bright red.

The footprints were gone, my heart beat a beat, and I almost threw myself to the edge of the cliff to look down.

Turning my head, a dark cave was not far from the edge of the cliff, and the familiar smell was in the cave.

I don't believe in God, but at this moment, I sincerely thank God.

Just wait a little longer, I'm coming, I'm here to save you.

……

Beep, beep, the flames danced happily.

The feeling of weakness came from all over the body, but the mind was clear, the feeling of dizziness that I didn't even know where I was and what I was doing disappeared, and the abnormal heat also decreased, leaving only a temporary weakness in the body.

"I ...... Aren't you dead? “

In that case, I feel like I'm going to die, but I still haven't died?

Because of the prolonged coma, his eyes could not adapt to the warm orange light for a while, and he could only see a vague shadow in front of the dancing orange flame.

Did you wake up by my movements? The shadow seemed to turn towards me.

What's that action? Is it rubbing your eyes? Good childish movements, like ...... The same as the captain?

He pounced and said something unmeaning in a loud voice, and I felt the heat on his cheeks...... Such a feeling, is it the captain? How can it be? It's an illusion, but I'm already dead, and now I'm seeing a fantasy world after death, right?

"Hey! Feed! Feed! Qianji, say a word, say a word, I beg you to say a word! “

"It's all right! Are you okay?! Say, don't scare me, don't scare me! “

Panicked words with weeping sounded in my ears, echoes in the cave stirred up the sound of the eardrums, and the feeling in my arms was very real...... I'm not dead? Am I really not dead?

The line of sight gradually became clearer. Ah, that's right, the crying man in his arms is the captain, but he will never be mistaken.

I let the captain hold me in a daze, and he seemed frightened, and tears flowed uncontrollably.

My heart hurts, and I opened my dry lips: "I...... It's okay......"

Just one sentence, the captain's tears stopped, and the whole person showed a gesture of ecstasy. I can't describe the feeling in my heart, it is the contradiction of a mixture of a sense of inferiority and a desire for him.

The fire was dancing, he looked at me like a child, I couldn't help the temptation, I wanted to touch his head, I wanted to be intimate with him. And yet, I saw my face reflected in his eyes.

Without the cover of a mask, I was disgustingly ugly.

I reacted suddenly, no, a person like me is not worthy of the captain. I'm a monster, and it's a luxury to be able to get a short period of happiness, so why more? Look at the captain's hand, wasn't it bloodied by you, a monster?

Let's go! Let's go! Run! Run!

I shoved the captain away and ran out with my face covered.

Yes, that's it, run away, and the monster won't covet the captain's gentleness anymore. He will become a great ninja, he will bring great changes, he will have a gentle and beautiful wife, a wife as bright and immaculate as the moon, and a child as cute as a star. And you? You're just a cloud, a monster.

His legs went numb, but tears flowed frantically.

I couldn't walk, I couldn't walk, because I was hugged tightly by the captain.

He kissed my earlobe, kissed my right cheek that made me gag, so gentle, but couldn't, couldn't...... Such an ugly face will stain him!

But the strength of the body was lost, and he kept telling himself to run away, but just touching this tenderness, he couldn't escape.

"Help me......" the lips betrayed their will and made such a plea.

The captain hugged me so tightly, as if he was afraid that I would escape, and he repeated it over and over again.

"I'll save you, I'll save you, no matter what, I'll save you, and I'll save you if I fight hard!"

Incredible, reassuring.
