Chapter 3: The Happy Undead
"What the hell are you crazy about? γFull Text Readingγ"Pannis hid away with his head in his hands, and asked with a full of grievances: "Suddenly becoming like two crazy women, is this really going to kill me?"
"Hahaha, you may not believe it, but it was just an accident. The two ladies looked left and right with fluttering eyes, and said with a smile: "You see, you just appeared in the right place at the right time, and we just hit the right place from the right angle, everything is actually a coincidence, it is all the arrangement of fate." β
"I see...... Who would believe it? Pannis shouted indignantly: "I won't be stupid enough to be fooled by you, and besides, you two little ones come down for me, and if you don't come down, be careful that I will beat you." Especially you, fawn, that thing is my head, not yours, you can't take it off no matter how much you hold it and shake it, and Annie, you too, don't you know that swinging with your hair hurts? Nonsense, of course you don't hurt, that's my hair, it's me. Ahh β
The two conscious little undead obviously like to be around Pannis, and the girls were a little strange about this behavior, but as time went on, the ladies gradually figured out the identity of Pannis, and guessed the reason why the two little undead liked Pannis so much. Seeing that Pannis was at a loss for the two little ones riding on her, Catherine couldn't help but smile and pulled the little skeleton that was pulling Pannis's neck hard, trying to swap her head for Pannis's head. After giving the two little ones a handful of snacks and sending the two happy children away, Catherine looked at their backs with a smile and said: "They are especially clinging to you because of the curse on your body, the power from the god of death is entrenched in your body, and this purest death power makes them feel like they are seeing their dearest relatives." β
"Well, it's the same power as their origin, and it's an instinct to follow the power of their origin, in fact, I've known it from the beginning. It's just that they don't know it. Pannis looked at the backs of the two little ones, and his eyes had long since lost the unconscious disgust and resentment he felt when he first met them, and only the doting on the two innocent children remained: "But they are also very interesting, and they have been living with living people." The power of death on his body has not decreased much. It stands to reason that even if they are high-level undead, they don't need the environment of the Demonic Night or the Land of the Dead to move freely, but if they spend a long time with the living, they will be affected to some extent. Who knew that the two of them were not only unaffected. On the contrary, it is becoming more and more active, which is quite unexpected. β
"Isn't this because of you?" asked Catherine, "I thought you were influencing them." β
"Probably not. Pannis shook his head and said, "But I'm not sure, either of them is possible." After all, we don't even understand why they've come to their senses in recent decades, let alone where they get their death energy. β
"Do you remember, Pannis. Catherine frowned, and said with some uncertainty: "I seem to have told you before, but I didn't say it in too much detail. Or when we went to the City of Innocence, I had a dream, a strange dream, I seemed to see you together in the world of the dead. Mistress Nelly launched a frontal charge in the face of the undead like a tide. β
"Well, you told me. Pannis nodded, "But I deliberately diverted the topic at the time, hehe, what's wrong?"
"I don't know if I said anything else. Catherine hesitated for a moment and said, "When I woke up, I found that Anne was awake too, and she said that she always had such dreams, and often dreamed of such scenes. β
"I think I've mentioned it too. Pannis groped his chin and said, "Maybe your spirits are interacting with each other, that's why you dream about the things she dreamed about." β
But there's obviously no way she's been through that. Catherine shook her head and said, "So I've always had a worry. β
"Are you worried that they're actually Danakus's eyes?" said Pannis, smiling, "Don't worry, they won't." Don't forget, Danacus can't even absorb the power of the souls sacrificed by the believers. Every time a believer's sacrifice ends in failure, it shows that his will is still asleep, at least at that time. I don't know what the situation is now, but maybe I've been reawakened. But judging from their performance, they were not affected. β
"That's good, I'm worried about that. Catherine sighed and said, "If they are affected, it will be troublesome, two such lovely children, I don't want to see them turn back into the unconscious undead." β
"In case, I mean in case. Pannis lowered his voice and said, "What if there is a possibility of this change between the two of them?"
"Wait until they really change. I'll take them back to sleep myself. Catherine said without hesitation: "But as long as they don't lose their minds for a day, as long as they don't change for a day, then I will treat them as a family day, and I will never allow anyone to hurt them for any reason." That's a strange question, is there something we don't know about that?"
"Not really, it's just that someone asked me a similar question two days ago. Pannis pouted and said: "Antuin, those people under me, I suspect that I have burned my brain stupidly when I was exposed to magic potions since I was a child, and I actually hope that we can send the two little guys to the Mage Tower to observe and study for a while, hehe, the courage is commendable." β
"Damn it. Catherine raised her eyebrows and said dissatisfiedly, "What do they do these two children for?" β
"Don't be angry. Pannis shrugged, "I don't think he'll have the courage to think like this a second time." However, for Anne and the others, those people also put forward a very reasonable idea, they believe that in recent decades there have been several cases of sane undead, which can actually be regarded as the embodiment of the will of the gods, although Danacus is still asleep, but even if he only has a vague will, maybe under the effect of the rules, there will be a few more sober undead in the world. β
"Quite possibly. Lina accosted her, "The will of the gods is a powerful force, so this conjecture is too likely." (To be continued.) )
