Chapter 39: Shirley's Past

For Shirley, her reticence is not entirely due to her personality, but also to her physiology. www.biquge.info One of the effects of having this guest in my mind is that there are some problems with the language. Although she and the others had wondered why she wasn't affected when she recited the spell, Martin solved the mystery for her today. It turns out that it's like a stutterer who doesn't pause when he sings. The part of the human mind that speaks and sings is different, so people who stutter can sing fluently. In the same way, although Shirley's language ability is lacking due to physiological factors, it does not prevent her from reciting incantations.

Although Shirley's reticence is due to many factors, it is not a problem to tell a lot about her past as she does now. It's like a person who has been suppressed for a long time always wants to vent once. Although she was not proficient in speaking, Shirley also gushed endlessly.

It turned out that she was just an ordinary girl living in the city. One day, a passing mage discovered her talent for magic and sent her to the Mage Tower with the consent of her family. For an ordinary little girl, it is not easy to leave the family so early and go to live in a strange place. Not to mention that she was going to the Academy of Magic. Magic not only has the glamorous side in front of people, but also the darkness and horror behind it. Although in the process of growing up, the personality has been greatly affected. But in the end, she persevered, successfully became a magic apprentice, and then went through trials to become a full-fledged magician.

Unexpectedly, at that time, a mutation suddenly occurred. During an experiment with otherworldly creatures, the professor made a mistake. As a result, there was a major liability accident. She couldn't remember what had happened. I only knew that since then, a visitor from another world has lived in her mind. A soul-sucking monster from another world.

If you ask which monsters are the most terrifying in this world of monsters of all kinds, then many adventurers will vote for the spirit suckers. Just by the face, that monster is terrifying. Reflective mucus on lilac skin...... Multiple tentacles protruding from the side of the mouthparts...... And what's even more terrifying is their habits. Their food is brain, and the development process is extraordinary. Their adult psychic monsters will put an octopus-shaped larva into the ear of a humanoid, and the larva will burrow into it, all the way to the brain. Transform the gray matter of that victim into his own filthy tissue. After a day, the victim's appearance will also change dramatically - no matter what humanoid he was before, he will grow tentacles and become a new adult soul sucker.

So, why didn't the guy in Shirley's head do that to her all over again?

It turned out that the larva was a soul sucker from another world. So that kind of evil operation cannot be carried out on Shirley, a creature of this world. The reason for this is entirely because the soul sucker is a creature from another world. The creatures in that world were all DNA L-handed organisms. However, in the world in which Martin and Shirley live, the creatures are all right-handed creatures with DNA. Right-handed and left-handed organisms with DNA are similar in appearance, unlike silicon-based and carbon-based organisms that can be distinguished in appearance. But there is still a huge difference on the inside. Let's use an analogy. A tiger with a right-handed DNA cannot be nourished by preying on an antelope with left-handed DNA. Organisms with right-handed DNA can digest left-handed DNA, but cannot use it. And the soul sucker, who is good at using psionic energy as arcane, keenly sees the problem. He knew that the left-handed himself would not be able to modify the right-handed creature in that step. So, Shirley survived.

Of course, that doesn't mean she can easily coexist peacefully with that parasite. After all kinds of difficult struggles unknown to outsiders, Shirley finally subdues the larvae of the otherworldly spirit suckers with the help of Lady Triste. Unfortunately, the larva's unaware that Shirley was a right-handed creature had damaged a portion of Shirley's brain tissue forever. On the one hand, this caused some physical defects in Shirley, and on the other hand, it was better for Shirley and the visitors from the other world not to be separated again, otherwise, there may be things like Shirley's quadriplegia, deafness, blindness, excretory system, and reproductive system all stop working. In other words, in fact, some of Shirley's current bodily functions can only be maintained to the normal level of a normal person by relying on the management of that soul sucking monster. For this reason, with the help of Trace, the spirit suckers from another world signed a contract with Shirley and became the pet of the magical girl Shirley. Since then, it has been in a state of mutual assistance and mutual benefit, which is called symbiosis according to biological terms. The same is true for natural language, and now that Shirley is so fluent in long paragraphs, the role played by that soul sucker cannot be ignored. At the beginning, he was so silent in the snowy region, precisely because of the dormancy of the spirit sucking monster at that time.

"That's my past. Now accept me or not, it's up to you to decide. Shirley concludes with this sentence. She held her head high and looked at Martin with a very special gaze. As if to say, answer me according to your heart's choice. I don't need your mercy......

Just as Martin began to look down and think, suddenly he heard Shirley's voice say again: "Please let me stay, as long as I stay, you want me to wear cat ears, blindfold, naked, and my hands are tied behind my back~Wow~ Kneel in front of you with a dog tail in it~ Wow~ You still whip me and finally smack~ It's okay to have others on my face at the same time! If there is any heavy and difficult taste, I won't teach me, I will also study hard." You can do anything with no lower limit, and even if you grow tentacles, you can deal with it with a smile. Shirley has everything you can taste. You can use this body as a meat toy to squeeze any part at will~ Oh. ”

"What?" said a startled Martin looked up suddenly. As a result, I saw Shirley gently knocking her head and saying, "Be honest!"

"Well, if I say that, it will increase your chances of being accepted. The exact same voice as Shirley came out, but it could be seen from the fact that Shirley didn't open her mouth that it wasn't she who spoke.

In this case, it's the ghost-sucking prank.

Sure enough, Shirley began to explain. And this time he stumbled because he didn't have the help of the spirit sucking monsters. It's a bit of a feeling of helplessness, and it's a little twisty. At the same time, his face turned red because of shyness. However, because some of the muscles of the face are taking a different line, they still look so dull and have no other expressions, which looks a little out of tune. However, this also proves from the side that facial paralysis will also blush. And in this case it will look even more cute.

"I understand. Martin first said that he knew that it was not Shirley who said it. Then he said, "Is it true that Lady Tracer always knew your status, that is, did she know what you looked like, and she wrote us a letter of introduction?"

Shirley didn't speak, but nodded.

"Then please stay in our team, I need your help, and if you are paid, you can do whatever you want. Martin eventually replied.

"Thank you, thank you. Shirley replied. Human beings are social creatures, and they always want to communicate with others. This is true even for mages who are immersed in books. After leaving the Academy of Magic, Shirley had been lonely for too long. In a sense, she is eager to join a team that knows her well and can communicate with her heart-to-heart. In fact, it was for that reason that she was showing her other side to Martin and them. Originally, she could hide it very well.

"Actually, the reason I accepted it wasn't just because I believed in the Lady Trist. Is it because you've just seen him in action?" Martin continued.

"The monster's performance?" Natasha was a little confused.

"Yes, he understands the human sense of humor and can joke. I think that under the influence of human society for a long time, he is no longer different from his kind. It can even be said that the way of thinking is closer to that of human beings. It can be said that the danger is much reduced. It's not scary to look weird, it's scary to be inhuman. ”

"Is that so? Thank you so much. I'm also glad to have such recognition from human beings. The Spirit Sucker spoke again. But it was in a different hoarse voice. As a thank you, I can thank you in the morning by saying in Shirley's voice, "Hurry up, or I'll kiss you!" “

"Then it doesn't have to be. By the way, what will I call you in the future?" Martin said.

"Just call me Chuye. ”

"Alright, don't waste any more time, let's move on. Then he turned his head back to Shirley, "It would probably be inconvenient to be around a parasite like that." If there is any request, as long as it is within the scope of what I can allow, you can do so. ”

"Well, that doesn't have to be. It's just that, sometimes it impersonates. Shirley was still blushing when she said this.

That's too pure, isn't it? Just those words have blushed to this day. Martin thought so. He didn't understand how humiliating it was for a woman to be so clean and honest that someone used her own voice to pretend to say those words.

"Well, I can't imagine it's done that more than once. ”

"Nonsense! This is the first time I've said something like that, and I've just done some Shirley before and I sneered at a professor when he bowed to him. A disgruntled voice interjected, and it was Chuye.

Shirley tapped her head again, motioning for him to be quiet. At the same time, he retorted: "Lies, lies." ”

It seems that Shirley still has a way to restrain Chuye. I saw that he immediately said stupidly, "Okay, say to others, boy, don't you want to make a shot? There have been a few times this kind of thing." ”

......

"I hope you'll be able to tell the occasion then. Don't joke around. When I'm dealing with people, if you just say a few random words, you can't decide that you can't. Martin ordered.

"Don't look at me like this, but I can also distinguish the occasion. Chuye said.

"Well, you just said that you have tentacles or something. Natasha suddenly interjected. "I suddenly remembered, are you the legendary tentacle monster?"

"Ahhhh

"You're the one with the tentacles. ”

"Well, even if I'm a tentacle monster, I'm a pervert among tentacle monsters, ah no, a gentleman. ”

......

Well, that's it for now. After all, compared to the uncertainty of Chuye, Shirley, a mage, is more important.

With their backs to the sun, the group continued north, northward.

Oh, it's been a long time since this text has been updated. That's right, there's been a lot of going on lately. However, I am more inspired by short stories.

That's how I think about it, I want to write a short story and submit it to a magazine, after all, the manuscript fee is quite a lot.

I just don't know how to submit it. I heard that the manuscript submitted directly is likely to be muddy and there is no news about it. I don't know if anyone can tell me what to do.

So it's quite a headache.

But there are really a lot of ideas for short stories, some of which are burning and some are healing. I just don't have much time to write about it for the time being.

In addition, this chapter is actually quite a failure. I don't have enough pen power. Many plot characters who will portray the effect well do not have the ability to write it. You still need to study hard.

Anyway, I talked about the image of the female mage in the forum, and someone gave the idea that "the larvae sometimes replace the language function of the supporting characters and say some very H words, but in fact, the supporting characters are very shy, and the mouth is honest" I think this setting is quite good, and it is really used. However, because it is difficult to write those words with no lower limit, I still consulted others to get it.

Summer has really arrived. However, my frozen shoulder is not yet well. So from time to time, I came to do the actions of Blue Road, which was very relieving.

In addition, I recommend the manga drawn by CHA Ken and search for the battle girl Lillian. You can see it. There are really a lot of complaints. As for the style of painting, don't care about the style of painting for that kind of funny comic.
