The petite girl transformed by the siren's blade came to life in front of us.

Her eyes were silently closed, her bare feet trampling on the soft grass, and the indigo-blue glowing particles reminiscent of fireflies were floating around her body, as if the light had faded away, enveloping her in a strange sense of unreality.

As her eyes slowly opened, the glowing particles around her were extinguished. The environment has darkened, and she seems to have finally come to reality with her feet on the ground.

She lowered her head as usual and looked at her hands and feet as if to make sure there were any omissions in the details of her body. Although there didn't seem to be any emotional fluctuations, I knew her well enough to tell that she was curious about the fact that she had a body. This body had actually been created a few days ago, but this was the first time it had been officially used.

"It really looks like a kraken...... "Bluebird was also observing the siren, and she whispered, "except for the fact that the body has become smaller, and there is no feeling of horror, the rest of the place is exactly the same......"

Then, she tidied up her tone a little and said politely, "Hello, I'm Blue Bird." You should recognize me, right? ”

"I'm a siren." The siren looked at me as he spoke, and took a step closer to me.

I felt as if she wanted to hide behind me, but she held back, took another half step to the blue bird, and looked up at the blue bird, "I know you." ”

"Li Duo often mentions things to me, and you have helped him a lot. It can even be said that without you, he would not be able to get to where he is today. Thank you. Blue Bird said sincerely.

"That's what I'm supposed to do as his weapon." The siren said solemnly.

"However, although Li Duo has been using you all along, you have now obtained a body and are able to move in the real world by your own will. If you want to continue to exert your strength, you don't have to let Li Duo hold him in your hands, right? Bluebird asked tentatively.

I quickly understood her subtext and underlying concerns.

When the siren changed the siren blade into her own body, she said that she would "help me adjust the details of this body", but she did show the ability to change the shape of the siren blade. Maybe she couldn't do it at first, but she can learn what I learned at the same time. By the time I first showed my ability to change the shape of the siren, she had probably upgraded her skill to a far better realm than I did, and even beyond my lifetime. I can't transform the siren's blade into a lifelike human body, but she can do it as a matter of course as if it were breathing.

In the battle between me and Naruyoshi in the mirage, she showed another ability, which was to summon herself when I couldn't summon the siren's blade on my own initiative. Although this practice is based on the transformation of true spirit power by burning spirit fragments, in the final analysis, killing people and refining souls is not my own ability, but the ability of the sirens. And if it is in a non-combat situation, the endurance cost of the Siren's Blade is very low. So she can also kill by herself to increase her battery life, just like a person can go and find something to eat when she is hungry.

In other words, the current sirens can actually completely abandon me and make themselves an independent life form.

She doesn't even need to worry about me as a source. Even if I did, she would have completely dominated all my perceptions and completely plunged me into a world of illusions that I would never be able to wake up again.

Although she said that she was a weapon and I was her master, she was more like my master from this point of view.

The only thing she had to worry about was that if I ran out of life and died, she would be buried with me. But the hidden world is full of wonders, and with her ability to kill people and refine souls and squeeze memories, it doesn't sound so hopeless to find a way to extend my life within a year.

It was only natural that the Blue Bird would test her attitude towards this matter.

However, she didn't seem to hear the meaning of the blue bird's words, but wanted to go somewhere else, "Do you mean that I want to use this form to charge for him?" Well...... It's not impossible, although this body looks very weak, it can actually output the power of true spirits......"

"Huh?" Blue Bird was stunned.

"But the efficiency is still not as good as the original combat form. The Zealot's Hammer of Truth is a creation that mimics the Siren's Blade, which means that both operate on the same logic and are both weapons that multiply with the power of the user. The power of the Siren's Blade will be significantly weakened when the user is detached......" the Siren seems to be thinking very seriously about the feasibility of this, "and if the weapon is charged from a distance, enemies who are good at tracking and seeking enemies are likely to lock on to the user and take advantage of the opportunity to sneak up and decapitate, so that is equivalent to an extra weakness out of thin air." Even if I am asked to conceal the identity of my weapon when I am in the outside world, some enemies with strong awareness can still see through the key inexplicably, and it is still not safe enough......"

"That's not what I meant......" said the blue bird with a laugh.

She shook her head, looking at the sirens with a different look in her eyes than before, and continued, "Speaking of which, we're going to go out shopping together later, are you going to go out with us like this?" ”

"Isn't that good?" The siren examined his body again.

I also temporarily withdrew from my thoughts just now, and then understood what the blue bird meant, and suddenly said: "Some people in the Liucheng Security Bureau have seen 'it' face, and if they directly use this appearance to move around Liucheng and its surrounding areas, they may be witnessed. ”

"Majin Li Duo" and "Kraken" appeared in the same place at the same time, and they were happily moving outside - what would they think if that kind of picture were seen by the warlocks of the Liucheng Security Bureau, especially Lieq?

"So I'm going to change my appearance?" Sirens asked for my opinion.

"Okay." I wondered, "What are you going to look like?" ”

She glanced at the blue bird, and then, her body turned into light again, changing shape slightly. When the light faded again, there was another figure that I missed in its place.

This time, the siren transforms into an elementary school girl around the age of ten, wearing a white school uniform. She has medium-long black hair, a delicate face, and a white carnation hair ornament pinned to the side of her hair, reminiscent of budding flowers and bones in spring. This is the appearance of the blue bird when he was just "Ruan Van Zhu" before he became a "blue bird".

However, the front table Ruan Wenzhu in my memory is not so young. I immediately remembered that this was the appearance that the sirens used when they first met me as "Ren Sai" in the healing dream.

Bluebird blinked.

"Is this me?" She asked.

"Hmm. Can I use it? The siren asked.

"Yes." The bluebird nodded generously, walked around the siren again, and watched repeatedly, "Was this how I used to feel?" ”

In fact, it's about the same, when the blue bird was still at my front table, it was very different from now, and I don't know whether to say that it should be quiet or cold. If the current bluebird is the sun, then in the past she and the sirens were more like the moon.

"Where do you want to go next?" Bluebird turned to me and asked.

"Let's go see the fireworks first." I say.

"That's going to Nameless Mountain?" She asked.

"Yes." I nodded.

The sirens looked a little confused, but did not speak, obediently following the arrangement. Bluebird pulled his car out of the garage, and it didn't take long for the three of us to reach Nameless Mountain.

To be precise, we arrived at the scenic spot at the foot of the mountain. Unlike the city streets where you can't see many people on Chinese New Year's Eve, the nameless mountain scenic spot on the outskirts is popular at this time, with lights hanging everywhere, people setting up stalls selling various goods, and people putting stereos outside to play cheerful music, and the crowd is endless.

It was probably the first time she had seen so many people in the real world, and I felt a little apprehensive about her. She unconsciously took my hand and held it close to me, as if she was afraid that she would lose me.

At the same time, she was also patrolling around with novel eyes, looking at the colorful street scenes, all kinds of passers-by, and a dazzling array of goods, and she seemed to be unable to hide the yearning in her heart anymore.

Yes, I've felt it since a long time ago, from the time she secretly disguised herself as "it" and weaved a dream that walked hand in hand with me on the bustling streets. That dream was not only made to fulfill my desire to live with "it" in a normal form, but also showed her vision of the colorful real world.

She really wanted to come to the real world.

Looking at the siren's innocent behavior like a real child, I silently felt her holding hand with me. It's a smooth, delicate, soft hand with the body temperature of a child. It's hard to imagine an axe that was so hard and cold before.

I can't help but think a little about it.

The sirens always think of themselves as my weapons. I know very well that she really thinks and does that. She has a strong sense of belonging to my weapon, and she is happy whenever I praise her for her efforts based on that stance and her superior performance as a weapon.

At the same time, I kept telling her: you are not a weapon, you are a human.

But am I really living my words?

I always consciously or unconsciously took her to the most dangerous battlefield, knowing that she would die if I died, but every time I remembered that I was responsible for her life, and every time I felt guilty after the fact.

Am I unconsciously objectifying her after all, treating her as "my thing" and looking at her with an extremely selfish eye?

Is it only in words that she will assert that she is a human being, but somewhere in his heart he thinks she is really a convenient and useful child, and then use her as a weapon?

I still have no clue about her true identity and origin. Even if she kept silent, I didn't think to press her. I will patiently wait for the day when she speaks.

But one thing I have to figure out, "to me", what exactly is she?

I silently tortured my heart.

The sound of firecrackers could be heard in the distance.

The siren, probably remembering what I said last time, listened and asked, "Are there fireworks here?" ”

"Yes. Although fireworks are prohibited in the city, they can still be set off on Chinese New Year's Eve and Spring Festival. Of course, there are also some areas that are not allowed, such as schools, hospitals, nursing homes, and other places where there may be a lot of people, as well as parks and woodlands that are easy to burn...... All in all, many people later did not bother to calculate where to allow and what not to allow, so they simply ran to this scenic spot in the suburbs after eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner to set off fireworks. "It's looser here, as long as you don't go up the hill to set off fireworks." It's kind of a special feature here. Soon there will be people organizing fireworks at the same time, and it will look spectacular. Because of the large number of customers, there will be many vendors who will take the opportunity to do some business, and some shops will open today. ”

"I see." The sirens suddenly.

Bluebird looked at the siren holding my hand, as if she wanted to take me, but after thinking about it, she went around to the siren and took the siren's other hand.

The siren looked at her quizzically.

She looked at the sirens exactly like her childhood self, then looked at me and said with emotion, "It feels like I have an extra daughter with you." ”

I took the opportunity to answer, "Then my genes are too weak, and they are not expressed in the child's body at all." ”

"Hmm...... Am I trying to express it? The sirens looked at my face very carefully, as if they were thinking about how to combine the elements of my appearance into the appearance they were using now.

"It's ......not necessary," I thought was a bit of a strange conversation.

"It's the first time she's coming out, buy her some gifts, it's not good to go home empty-handed." Blue Bird looked at a few shops on the side of the road and said to me with a smile, "Go to that store and buy her a few clothes first, and you will pay for it!" ”

"Okay." I say.

"Clothes? I don't have to ......" Before the siren refused, the blue bird and I took the siren by the hand and walked into the clothing store that was still open on the side of the road.

Although the blue bird doesn't usually seem to spend a lot of effort on researching dressing and matching, it is much stronger than me after all, and soon researches some combinations. The siren stood in front of the fitting room with her left hand and looked at me at a loss, while her right hand was still holding my hand, as if she didn't really want to let go, but I couldn't follow up in the fitting room and watch her change.

After I persuaded her into the fitting room, the blue bird looked at the closed door and asked in a low voice, "Do you have any other ideas for bringing her to this scenic spot?" ”

"Yes." I first admitted, then said, "I want to take her on a trip to the Nameless Mountain." ”
