Chapter 42: The Feast

My eyes widened, I slowly took two steps back, and finally crouched down in despair.

There is no better moment for me to feel the malice from the great universe more clearly, imaginary circle? Death? What the hell did that bastard man do to me!

Why, what? I'll just poke it with a knife... Can you run to another world in the blink of an eye? Could it be... Could it be... Could it be that Admiral Akainu took a knee-jerk counterattack against me, such as a meteor volcano, and...

And then... Am I dying in the void?! ┭┮﹏┭┮。

Didn't you hear that this thing is a soul that has fallen into the bones with deep desires/desires? I'm me, I'm not thinking I'm alive, I'm not doing all kinds of evil!

I think I'm okay, huh?

I don't cling to anything, I don't have the evil desire carved into my bone marrow, I have been at peace with what I encounter, and I have been trying to live, why did I go to the void?

…………

Squatting on the ground, a head of paste, and a mountain of complaints that can't be described in the language of the earth clog my reason, I just think...

There is only one cry from all the cells in the body, boiling violently, ————, take me away!"

…………

After a long time, when I swiped the millions of sentences one by one, the disconnected rational nerves were reconnected, maintaining a frustrated forward bending posture, slowly raising the rusty neck, and fixing my eyes.

Uh~ In the field of vision of gray moonlight and gravel, one large and one small sat quietly cross-legged a meter away, with aspirations on their faces... Dull, to the point of near-blank look.

The corners of his eyes twitched, paused, and twitched again, saying that the characters in the bedside story for his bear child were suddenly within reach, this feeling... That's called a sour yo~

The corners of my eyes twitched like a stroke, and for a long time, I finally smoothed out my face and was entangled, I sat cross-legged like this, coughed twice, and brewed good feelings... Uh~ refuse the 'go together' thing that I didn't notice for a while.

I admit to backsliding, but! Didn't you know just now~

These two originally thought they were the saviors of the aborigines, but they were so false!

And it's Schwartod! The only broken face that hasn't evolved with the help of Broken Jade! it! Even if I die in the void, following these two will only be safe for a while, and I may not be able to break my bones in the future!

After all, indigo Samar is not a fuel-efficient lamp, hey!

Compared with that conspirator and careerist, a group of generals in the Navy Headquarters are simply gentle and considerate, simple and kind, at least those men will not smile like a spring breeze on their faces, and they will calculate behind their backs that you will die without a whole body, right?

Cherish your life and stay away from indigo.

Also~ Don't ask me why I'm not frightened, not afraid, not crazy, because as early as more than ten years ago, when I woke up and found that I was a widow and pregnant, at that time I was overdrawn all the speechless condensation in my past life, this life and future life.

So! I、Very、Egg、Certainly!

…………

As for the two in front of you... Uh~ Carefully glanced at the next big and small lumps, and after thinking about it, I silently rolled out three white eyes.

I know that I know that a human like myself is probably about equal to paramecium (==) in the eyes of these two people, so weak that you don't have to care, the dust is the same~

So~ No matter how flattering or honest I am, I guess I can't change anything, such as the other party destroying it casually~ In that case, then I don't have to force myself to be afraid or not, right?

Anyway, when I was for the fish, I flattened it out and didn't care.

…………

A long list of broken thoughts that can't grasp the point at all, and then... I stopped, full of hope.

However, the two tile-level powerhouses looked uncertain whether it was a fugue or what, in short, judging from their sloppy eyes, it was obvious that they didn't listen to me at all.

Slowly, inhale, inhale, exhale, and finally, I got up, patted the dust on the corner of my clothes, and silently turned back, taking a step in the direction from which I came.

Anyway, anyway... Well~That's it~

Life and death are life, wealth is in the sky (fog!) ）。

…………

How can I say that I went back to my temporary settlement in the middle of the rocks, snuggled in, closed my eyes, and didn't continue to move the rocks to block the exit to ensure safety. Presumably self-defeating?

This is an imaginary circle, I thought it was a desert~ I was trembling, and as a result... Not to mention running into Schwartod, even a random miscellaneous fish can easily kill me, okay?

Safe, where is it safe?

Leaning against the rock wall behind me, I buried my face in my knees and breathed deeply.

Actually, I almost begged just now, to those two, Cor Taiya. Stark, Lilynette. Kim Jerebuck, I almost blurted out just now that I wanted to open the black cavity with a broken face.

When I knew that I was in an imaginary circle, my first reaction was to beg the other party to open the black cavity and send me to this world.

Why?

Because there may be a black shop operating without a license in the present world, and the owner of that shop pù... Omnipotent, Urahara Kisuke, uh~ I forgot a lot of plots, the former captain of the 12th team, the director of the first generation of the Technology Development Bureau, but such a strong character is still impressive.

If that's the one, wouldn't there be a way...

When I thought about it, I felt ridiculous.

Why should I ask for help? What price can I pay? Whether it's opening the black cavity or looking for a way to break through the boundaries of the dimension, I have nothing to do, what can I do to impress the powerhouses of this world?

Humble to the dust of a pleading? Even if you say it, it's just a joke, right?

I don't have any capital to impress the other party at all.

So, forget it.

Don't be embarrassed to become a pathetic clown.

I'd be on my knees and beg if I could, but... There's no possibility, even if I think about it on my knees.

Even if revealing my true origin will arouse interest, then my fate will be truly sad.

I'm very timid, greedy for life and afraid of death, and cowardly, so forget it.

…………

When I opened my eyes again, I hissed because... I accidentally fell asleep, in addition, the posture of the group was not right, and I could hear the squeaking of the bones of the whole body when I woke up and moved. (╯_╰)

I put the dagger at my feet, then I stretched carefully, blinked the slightest water stain from the corner of my eye, turned my head, and swept my eyes away, and then I took half a yawn in my mouth.

Amazed.

Crevices in the rocks, white sand... At a distance of less than five meters, a lump of jet-black fabric half-blocked the exit, and when it heard the movement, the little head deviated, stared inside, and then snorted and twisted back.

Lilynette... Belch~

After a moment's pause, I twitched the corners of my eyes and slowly moved out.

The outside is still hazy gray, as far as the eye can see, raising your hand to cover your eyebrows, looking into the distance, the moon in the imaginary circle is hanging motionless, like a scenery that will not change for thousands of years.

Outside the crevice of the rock where I slept, two tile-level giants, one on the left and one on the right, sat on the gravel like door gods, and I was simply flattered.

…………

After stretching and moving my joints, finally, I sat down between the two of them with my hair in my hands, ready to... Ask what is going on.

Out of the corner of his eye, the man on the left hand side (perhaps not a human) looks up at the moon, his pale gray pupils, and an empty air of death.

Ke Taiya. Stark...

After thinking about it, he put away his slanted gaze, and shifted his gaze a few degrees———— the one on the right... Lori wearing a helmet.

Now I don't have empathy or pity, because, Lilinette. Kim Jiebuck, this one and the one on the left are actually a soul, that is to say, the broken face of the uncle's appearance on the left hand side split itself to create a Lori to fill the loneliness.

Although the words are a bit off, it is true.

Thinking that Lori is a self-attacking and lonely uncle.,Uh~ Of course, I don't have all kinds of thoughts about Lori.。

As for loneliness... Two one-half loneliness, adding up will not be one, but two~

I don't have any damage to the top-of-the-line breaks... Sympathy or pity or embarrassment, because the other party seems to me to be probably a dust paramecium, since humans do not have feelings for steak pork, at this moment, as a steak-like storage zài, of course, I will not have strange feelings towards the relative 'humans'.

…………

After a few moments, Xu could see something in my expression, and the little lump of Lilinette moved, a hand stretched out from under the jet-black fabric, palm up, and then the water-red pupils glared at me, snorted, and twisted her face to the other side.

doesn't speak, but the body movements are very clear and show the taste of tsundere.

The corners of his mouth jumped first.,I didn't wait to start laughing and remembered the subtle equal sign between Uncle Lori.,As a result... I'm embarrassed.

After waiting for a while, the helmet and hat turned back again, Lori's eyebrows furrowed and she looked fierce, and she continued not to speak, but she almost poked her hand under my nose.

Putting away the black lines on my head, I fixed my eyes on it.

Small palms, with a dozen gravel-like things lying in the palms.

They are the 'food' that I've been feeding for the past few days.

I was stunned, but suddenly understood, I raised my eyes, looked at the red pupils, and didn't know what to say for a while.

The small face, the expression is fierce, the red pupils are very clear, and the depth of the eyes seems to be a little... Something else.

Closing my eyes, I bent the corners of my mouth, reached out when the light in Lori's eyes gradually dimmed, gently put away a dozen grains of food, held them in my hands, and threw them into my mouth one by one like popcorn.

Probably... Uh~ I'm hungry, I thought.

So ah~ This kind of thing is fed by broken noodles... Hm~

…………

Seeing that I began to eat, her red eyes lit up again, and after waiting for a while, her eyebrows loosened a little, still very awkward, but her expression was obviously happy?

Swallowing the third unscented jelly, I slowly swallowed my tentative opening, "Where is this?" ”

"The Great Void Forest." A deep voice came from the left, motionless like a broken face of a sculpture that suddenly answered my question.

"Where?" I turned my face away, pretending not to know anything, "This desert is called the Great Void Forest?" ”

The light gray pupils turned vaguely, the plain gaze swept over, the thin lip line moved, as if he wanted to say something, but was interrupted first, "Yes, desert." Lilinette replied fiercely.

"Okay~" I quickly staggered with a name named Cortea. Stark's broken gaze paused, and he asked, "How do I get out?" Do you live here and know the way out? ”

Okay~ I don't know if Mr. Stark knows I'm lying, but... Well~ As long as these two don't make it clear, I hope I can treat him and her as human beings.

Void or something, death or something... If I 'don't know', if no one tells me the truth, isn't it, maybe a qiē will be restored to the original state? It's like I'm here without warning, is it possible to go back to the same thing in the next second?

…………

"Who knows that route?" Lilinette frowned again, her watery eyes moving away after a moment of staring at her, and she and he didn't speak for a long time.

In the end, in the silence I was waiting for, there was no... Say something that is not acceptable to 'humans'.

I think I won the bet about once.

Rarely, the bet was right, and I confessed to being hypocritical and despicable, as I used what little memory I had left in my mind to exploit his and her weaknesses.

Ke Taiya. Stark, Lilynette. Kim Jie Buck.

Once upon a time, when I was still alive, I watched the plot and happened to be serialized to the Winter War, which has the memories of the first ten blades, which is a fragment, a cold and lonely picture, like a mountain corpse, this big and a small sitting alone in the middle of the desert...

Because it is too powerful, everything that comes close will collapse and die.

As for why, I'm still alive and kicking as a human being? The answer doesn't matter, the word 'science' has completely disappeared from my three views.

Ke Taiya. Stark, Lilynette. Kim Jerebuck, he and she were surprised too, right? When they first met, the answer was obvious, and he and she were surprised.

However, he and she, like me, generally don't get to the bottom of it.

I don't care, he and she are... Probably unwilling to think about it?

Ke Taiya. Stark is too lonely, so he splits his soul and has an extra Lilynette. Kim Jiebuck, he and she seem to be two people, walking together, frolicking and having fun, but in fact they are just deceiving themselves.

He and she are alone, he plays with her, he plays with himself.

During the Winter War, he was defeated and fell into the sky, and at the end of his consciousness, that sentence... No longer alone.

He and she, or rather, should I say, Cortea. Stark, I want a companion, at least, no longer a person, as long as there is a living that will not die if you get close, even if it is a paramecium.

Paramecium = me, so... He and she chose to be silent.

Is that so?

…………

Hm~ After thinking about it, I ate the last piece of food, patted the dust that didn't have zài in my hand, and bared my teeth, "Anyway, there is no place to go, so stay here for the time being, and wait for me to recuperate, okay?" ”

Since the void circle is vast and infinite, and the two people around him are harmless for the time being, then... Stay for the time being~

I hope, uh~ the breakpoint between the two worlds here and there... At the very least, staying here in the first place might give you a 1 in 100 million hope, if you leave...

I don't want to leave~ before complete despair.

The lifespan of a human being is probably just a moment for Schwartod, right? The first ten blades of the future are going to stay or leave, or even kill me... There's hope until you run out of breath, isn't there?

I am a human being, and I have a human flaw.

I'm good at deception, I'm cowardly and cunning, and I take advantage of what I can.

I'm sorry~

I have a place where I have to go back no matter what it takes.

…………

Wait a minute, Lilinette, little Lori's nose turned up to the sky and snorted, "Troublesome human." ”

"Yes, yes~" I nodded, smiled and showed a (*^__^*) expression, thinking, dealing with the bear child... My experience bar is very sufficient~

Although the essence is an uncle, but... This did not prevent me from hypnotizing myself to treat her as an independent tsundere awkward bear child.

Thereupon...

"Love to play tangram? Let's make one for fun, shall we? ”

The carbonized black forest not far away is a good material ready to come~

I didn't get a clear response to my suggestion, but when I got up to prepare the materials, a flower in front of me instantly swept through the shallow cool breeze...

After a few moments, when the air had settled again, a small lump was already standing in my path, clutching a large, apparently broken tree.

Without speaking, his red eyes were shining and shining.

“……… Okay~" I said with a happy face, "I'll draw the pattern, and then please do it~ Lily." "You who are demolishing and relocating, please work on it~╮(╯_╰)╭.

…………

The swarthy tangram was quickly ready, and when I made the patterns out of the small wooden blocks, Lilinette quickly became obsessed, and squatted beside me, staring at the changing patterns on the sand with her eyes fixed on the changing patterns in her mouth.

"What is this?" (≧▽≦)/。

"Little Flower..."

"Where's this?" \(≧▽≦)/。

"Puppy..."

"Where's this?" ~\(≧▽≦)/~。

"Tree..."

"Where's this?" ヾ(≧▽≦*)ゝ。

"Fish..."

…………

After playing for a long, long time, she began to be dissatisfied with the tricks I put together, so she made another pair by herself, lying on the gravel and having fun.

A small lump, with a dazzling smile.

I stretched back and tilted my head, looking at a pair of pale gray eyes.

Ke Taiya. Stark, Mr. Ten Blades, who had been sitting quietly, was still in a daze, but his gaze fell on me, his focus wandering, his eyes staring at people, happy and angry.

"Do you want to play?"

…………

…………

Cold moon, white sand, dead and silent circle.

Can't count the time, my food source... Uh~ Lilinant, little Lori can take all kinds of weird things when I wake up from sleep at a speed that I can't imagine.

Of course, I don't have the slightest appetite for other unknown weird-looking ingredients other than the tasteless fruit that looks like grit, and what it is...

I rightly rejected the answers of my two temporary companions.

Whatever it is, I don't know if I can eat it!

Also, because I couldn't calculate the time, I was called to find an anomaly... Except for hunger, there is no other physiology!

So, whether I'm 'human' or not is really debatable.

Slowly, whether it is Uncle Sanwu or Tsundere Lori, the three of us 'people' gradually began to get acquainted.

Lilynette learned to play tangrams, to get close to me and roll with me when I was asleep, and to pester me with bedtime stories, who had lived for thousands of years.

I... Unfortunately, I didn't manage to hold the psychological line for a while... Told the story of the "orange-headed hot-blooded boy who met a flat-chested girl who likes Chabi one day" who changed his face and almost changed beyond recognition (fog!) ）。

The orange head is a cooing boy, the squid head is just over the girl, the cabbage brother is expensive, the sick beauty captain, the ruffian drunkard captain, the old man with strict sù twist braids, and so on.

By the time I realized it was too late, Lilinette loved it, it was a tragedy.

Even more tragic... Ke Taiya. Stark, Mr. Ten Blades, he... He slipped into a crevice in the rocks during a routine bedtime story with Lori, and lay down like he was going home under my horrified gaze, unable to kick out.

Embarrassment.

…………

I thought I would die of old age in an imaginary circle, unable to count the time, feeling hungry, and having no other physiological reaction except hunger.

After gradually dying up, I even thought that I... It's dead, and now it's just too obsessive... Half-human, half-ghost.

Ke Taiya. Stark, perhaps because of my story, in return, Mr. Ten Blades will take the initiative to replace Lilinette when he is not asleep and energetic, and train with me in what is called play.

Yes, training.

After being ridiculed by Lori, I was angry and decided to improve my skills.

And then there's the hide-and-seek where I chase me with a dagger and Lori.

The condition is that the bedtime story continues to be serialized, and I am not allowed to change the story without saying a word.

I don't know why, obviously replacing most of the background, and smearing so-and-so Sama countless times, it turns out that these two still like 'the careerist who ended the window period of God and stood in the sky', more than 'the nine-tailed man pillar force who is dedicated to guarding'.

_(:зゝ∠)_

Training... Speaking of training, I certainly can't have played with a strong person at the top of the imaginary circle, whether it's Mr. First Ten Blades or Lilinette of the Soul Community.

He and she barely worked, and they abused me every time I sweated.

Of course, it's not without benefits.

At least I learned not to hesitate to poke with a dagger... Because you don't have to worry about killing each other by mistake.

The dagger made of Hailou stone, which is known as the strongest one, has no trace of the broken copper skin and iron bone on the top with my strength.

I admit that I hesitated to kill people by mistake, and I couldn't get through the psychological defense, and then, I was trained by him and her, and the moral shackles in my consciousness were...

Unconsciously, it is gone. (>_<)

If you don't have a burden, you will develop the habit of being ruthless.

…………

I don't know how it happened...

Last second, Cortea. Stark sneaked around my back, and I flipped my dagger and slammed it back————

In an instant, the body suddenly emptied for some reason...

The toes turned sharply, and in an instant they returned to their balance, raised their eyes, and then froze.

Holding the posture of the dagger cutting horizontally, I slowly, slowly widened my eyes... The man in the crimson suit stretched out his hand to block my wrist bones, and the eyes under the brim of his hat had a very strange look in his eyes.

Coming back?!

At a time when I was already in utter despair... It's back without warning!

After a moment's pause, I threw away the dagger and threw it forward———— raised my hand to grab the front of the crimson suit, and with both hands slammed off, I tore off the button of his shirt and pressed my palm up...

Touch.

It's real, right? There's a heartbeat, right?

It wasn't the last time Lilinette kidnapped me to fight far away, and I encountered the illusion that only caused the illusion... Right?!

You're real, right?

Admiral, Akainu Sakasky!
