Chapter 290 No matter what, I will wait for him

5 month 17 day.

late at night.

I know that the reason why he suddenly called me Skylark or sister is that he wanted me to just feel what I wanted to feel.

"..."

I have a deep prejudice against people. But that's actually the reality.

For those who don't know the identity of the 'monster', the hidden evil gaze is disgusting.

Seeing me holding his arm without any scruples, some people would be jealous or think I was shameless. In fact, I knew what etiquette was and learned it since I was a child. I also knew that even after getting married, I should not be so intimate with the opposite sex in public.

But that is a restriction on me as a human being. I can no longer be called a human being.

So, if you don’t want to be affected by other things, just hold his arm.

I feel that there is a risk of losing control and I take it for granted. Of course, I decide when I feel that I will lose control.

In fact, I have gradually gotten used to it. I can just snuggle up to him without having to think too much.

The past is also good...

It was good that he was caught tearing someone to pieces some time ago.

I'm not hated for that, am I?

Even though I did something impolite to his other woman, even though I would be jealous... he still never regretted bringing me out.

"Sertis, when I say disappear, I mean go back to where I should be."

Seeing his serious expression, I knew it was no joke.

So, where should we go?

I can't go?

"You can go, but it will take some time."

"Well...I'll be back."

Are you finally tired of it?
I understand that the woman next to him whom I envy is better than me. Even if she is just an ordinary person, even if her figure is not much different, she is still prettier and more attractive than me.

"Skylark, that's probably it."

"I rely on some power to come here to see you, but this power is not always effective. At a fixed time, I will not be able to control myself and go back."

"If I'm really fed up, why would I say it?"

"It's as good as it gets. I'll definitely be back."

I do not want.

Where can I go without him? Back to the dead city? Back... alone again.

"If it was her, she would be as sad as you. But in the end she nodded in agreement."

Never said that before.

I always thought that as long as I learned to restrain myself, I would be able to have a baby smoothly.

"Skylark, I..."

Why do you want to confess at this time?

I have said that the real me is not ignorant. Even if I have not experienced it, I can know it by reading books.

The dancer and the knight expressed their love to each other at the moment of life and death.

I won't tell you.

I wouldn't agree with that either.

I'm not kidding. If I decide not to leave, I will never be able to leave.

5 month 18 day.

early morning.

"No one can take you away."

I tied him up.

I locked it with the chain I hated the most, the one I found in the shed at the inn for tying up my mount.

"……Feel sorry."

why?

He didn't hate my behavior at all. Instead, he looked at me with an apologetic look.

fear.

Who will take him away?
It completely destroyed his fighting spirit.

Don't use such an apologetic expression. Didn't you always assume that you would only show me your boundless and lovely desires?
I have always accepted only that part.

“…Sertis?”

I no longer paid attention to his voice.

I just need to kill people again and cause panic, right? I need to become a monster that everyone hates and fears. Someone will come to me with murderous intent, and all around me will be filled with malice.

I will become very strong.

Anyone can be killed, even an ordinary traveler staying in a hotel. I am a monster anyway, so I can kill anyone, no matter if they are young and ignorant children or elderly people with limited mobility but a kind heart.

5 month 18 day.

Two o'clock in the morning.

I untied the chains that were wrapped around him.

"You might as well get tired of talking and go back to your dead city."

I huddled in the corner with my knees hugged, and he was lighting something called a cigarette next to me.

“But I’m not actually tired of it.”

"Am I a toy?"

"No."

“When will it disappear?”

"It will definitely be gone before noon today."

"You said that if you brought me out, you would take responsibility. What now?"

"..."

"Where do you want me to go?"

"Live a normal life and wait for me to come back."

"..."

My head was filled with thoughts.

Like, get stronger and keep him here forever.

For example, is he working very hard?

For example, why do you want him to be happier but also want him to stay here?
"Maybe, if you wait too long to see me again, I will have become a real monster."

"Even if you are a monster, you have to give birth to a child for me."

"..."

I think it was my good side that helped me control it.

It would not be corrupted a long time ago, why hasn't it come to that point? Is it a lie that you want to have a child?

"Save it for when we meet again."

"..."

Something that is taken for granted.

After I openly express my desire, I always get feedback quickly.

I don't want to stay that far.

Will it be a day, a year, or decades before we meet again? Can I make it through?

I thought he would need me as much as he could at this moment.

"Skylark, do you often feel that time passes very quickly?"

"Ah."

"It's the same for me. Several months have passed without me noticing. At the beginning, my nose was bleeding profusely, but now I don't feel anything even when I sleep with my arms around each other every day."

"..."

"Tell me more about your attachment to me."

which type?
Body, heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and face.

All ways of speaking.

I miss everything, I want everything. I want the love of the dancer and the knight in the book, and I want everything else too.

"So."

"When we were in the dead city, we said we would go back. We have gone back now."

"It's the same this time, except that we're going farther away, so it might take longer."

But it's the same. As early as when I was in the dead city, I said that his things can reduce my pollution. So come more often, I don't have to go out anymore. Compared to barbecue... I need him to be there all the time.

As long as I live an ordinary life, can I wait?

Can I get it as long as I continue to endure the loneliness as before?
Isn’t this happiness beyond cognition?

"No. You already know me, how can it be considered happiness beyond cognition?"

When I saw his smile, I couldn't hold it back any longer.

I don't want to stay until we meet again.

"Sertis?"

"Call me Skylark. If you call me Skylark... I'll wait."

So this is what giving birth is like.

Just bear with the pain.

I didn't cry, because in all the books I've read, any book that made me cry never had a happy ending. I also wanted to laugh.

I trusted him no matter who he was, and now that the two are one, I trust him even more. So there is no reason to think in a bad way.

“Why can’t you have a child at once?”

"Well...it depends on your physique."

"I want it all at once."

"Hiss...wait!"

If I could give birth to a life for him like in the book, maybe I would not feel so lonely while waiting.

"Tell me a time. Be nice to your sister... one day? One year? Thirty years? You can think of more."

Three years?
If he said three years, I took it as thirty years.

No, sixty years would be fine. I could have survived sixty years once, so there was no reason why I couldn’t survive another sixty years knowing that he would definitely come back.

I am no longer just the escapist Sertis.

He is no longer a lark who knows only hatred.

"I like you."

It's not just about the body and whether it's funny or not.

It's not just that I want to get him. At the same time, I also want to give myself to him. Can this feeling be called love?
Same as her?

5 month 18 day.

morning.

"Why? No problem for me to wait."

"Brother Ming doesn't want to?"

"..."

It's a good thing that Sertis can recover. But can we guarantee that we can find the same passage to Tia in three years as promised?

"She's here too."

"No matter how long it takes, Brother Ming will definitely come back."

"..."

Is that so?

This is a minefield. If it takes me a long time to get back here, she will...

"Even if she's not here, Brother Ming will come back."

"Let's do the same next time. The ultimate desire that you will never forget. Hehe... It's all Brother Ming's sweat."

It's not a landmine either.

After all, she was so smiling and holding herself, buried in her accumulated chest.

"I'm jealous. But I also want to sacrifice myself... just like I wanted to sneak away before. To die alone."

"When we meet again, will Brother Ming like me as much as he likes her?"

There is no two loves exactly alike.

After all, everyone's heartstrings are touched differently.

"So, which part am I?"

5 month 18 day.

noon.

In this situation, there is no possibility of life and death. There is only the smooth body and the bright wheat color intertwined.

"Well...if I can control myself, I'll do as Brother Ming said, raising pets and farming." "I don't like eating grass either."

"Living things will be contaminated, but dead things can be eaten as long as I exercise a little restraint."

"Don't look at my sister like this. She was also a young lady a long time ago. Just like her, she also enjoyed a very comfortable life."

"Do you prefer me to call you Brother Su Ming or Brother Ming?"

"..."

"Actually, whether you call me Sister Skylark or Skylark, I will... 啾. I want to do something like this."

"..."

The pair of legs that gradually became more voluptuous with the regularity of three meals a day were floating around Su Ming's body. Generally speaking, if the baby's canteen is not large enough, it is impossible to have an oblique angle. If the body shape is not good enough, it is easy to turn into sagging.

In contrast, Tia has a unique bamboo shoot shape, while her hair falls naturally.

The pupils are so beautiful that they look like she is wearing light-colored contact lenses.

It was very hard to have a child. If giving birth to a life could make her feel better...

【mission completed】

[Returning to reality...scores will be settled later]

That's too late.

Only a slightly charming, yet somewhat shy smile was imprinted in Su Ming's sight. Everything around him appeared with a translucent text box, motionless. The sound and the faint aroma of the cafeteria disappeared.

Compared to telling Tia the truth, she was too calm.

But Su Ming could understand.

Just as the description said, extreme trust. She chose extreme trust among countless extremes.

He didn't even ask how to get back or where to disappear to.

-

reality.

【Results settlement completed】

[The score this time is 99, and the score is excellent]

[Reward: You have obtained the Immunity (Excellent Quality) card. Note: This card will take a certain amount of time to adapt automatically after use, usually no more than 72 hours]

[The world of 'The Thing' has been explored and the current score will be uploaded as the final score]

[Immunity (Excellent Quality) Card has automatically taken effect]

"..."

Su Ming was still on the sofa, and An Shiyao was also beside him.

Didn't wake up.

Her mission isn't over yet?

"Gudu."

Su Ming poured himself a glass of water and then looked at the gradually disappearing translucent text box in front of him.

A bit mocking.

I thought it was the worst trial I had ever done, but my score was the highest.

Maybe the score has something to do with the number of times the game is loaded.

This time I only reloaded the game a few times when Thetis left without saying goodbye. Thetis didn't die at the beginning, and she didn't die at the end either.

It was a very low difficulty. Apart from doing some things to improve my favorability, I didn't consider anything else.

"Ok?"

The note originally left for An Shiyao was still there on the coffee table.

In addition to the address where I could be contacted, I also talked about Sertis at that time... Now there is something else.

[Mr. Su Ming is lying. Setis is obviously very beautiful. She seems to be prettier than me.]

【Keeping to the bottom line is also deceptive. 】

[But... she's not bad. Mr. Su Ming should just bring her some ordinary clothes this time. If the clothes in the closet fit her, she can try them on. But she can't wear anything I haven't worn yet, or I'll get angry.]

[Since the agreed date didn't happen, then let's change it to a date in Dongshi? Is it too much to change it to a regular date where you can come at my beck and call for ten times and you can't refuse? ]

wrong.

Has the 10 million transaction volume mission she mentioned been completed?

'state.'

Su Ming muttered to himself.

[List of auxiliary NPC status:
Current status: Healthy

Current progress: On the way to the third mission]

You can also see the status bar of the auxiliary NPC.

No problem.

I have completed three tasks, so it is normal for her to complete three as well.

The first one is one million transaction volume, the second one is ten million, and the third one should still be 10 times the transaction volume gold coins.

"..."

Staring at An Shiyao's peaceful sleeping face.

Su Ming looked at the extra message on the note again. The handwriting was very neat... and he felt very uncomfortable.

This time, An Shiyao, who was always considered the most difficult to deal with, took the initiative to accept it. They said they would bring it back normally...but they failed to bring it back.

I understand everything.

The game doesn't say that you have to see it to be considered successful. Just complete the tasks it specifies and get the rewards.

The follow-ups that emerged from the story with An Shiyao and the others were all things I wanted extra.

Now the most important reward of the game has been obtained, but the fragrance that was still lingering in my hand just now is gone... and the body temperature is gone. With An Shiyao's brain, to complete a transaction volume of 100 million, when she has already started doing business, it is a dimensionality reduction attack in that world. Even if I wait in the winter market for a year, I will only wake up at night.

What will she say then?
'Where is Thetis?'

'Is this the end of Mr. Su Ming?'

'Don't want her?'

'...'

Although it feels strange to think about it, I just feel that An Shiyao would ask this. And then... I would be more angry than if I had a relationship with another woman. Of course, maybe it would comfort myself. That would be more uncomfortable.

It was difficult to face An Shiyao after I cheated on her.

Now it's hard to face her if I don't bring her home.

"..."

Su Ming was not in the mood to test whether immunity could protect him from poison, so he went to the bathroom to wash his face with cold water and stared at himself in the mirror.

"What Xiaoye from 2067 said is right. There will be several more women around me in the future."

"Since there are so many more...there should be Sertis among them, right?"

"..."

Thinking of some fragmented memories.

Sertis stared at herself without blinking as she smoked the last cigarette. She was more concerned about this than her own disappearance, and said she wanted to try it. But she coughed as soon as she got to the side.

Gradually I couldn't remember it.

The images that affect my mood will be blurred. I will feel very sleepy next time... If I wake up again, Yao will also feel sleepy and sleep, or will she ask questions excitedly?

I should have known better not to use the two-player mode. Yao doesn't need to know anything, just think of it as defending the bottom line... It's a completely natural idea.

Go to sleep.

At this point, we can only contact Tia and Xia Ye to find a solution together. That kind of extreme trust...

[Dream Game Tips: [Dream Game Tips]

[To prevent players from becoming addicted to games and getting bored with reality, we will temporarily suppress players’ dopamine secretion after uploading the final results]

[It is normal for players to experience laziness, weakness, dizziness, loss of appetite, etc. 】

[It is expected that after 6 hours of deep sleep, your brain’s dopamine secretion will return to normal]

After waking up, will I still think that I must respond to that extreme trust? Although she said she was called Skylark, how much emotion she actually invested in him... God knows. Sertis doesn't know that modern people are very practical. Only one in ten people will continue to look for someone if they can't find him in 30 years.

Although Su Ming wanted to sleep next to An Shiyao, he finally chose to go back to his room. Now it was a little hard to face An Shiyao, and he couldn't face her generosity.

Master bedroom on the second floor.

"..."

Su Ming didn't know how long he slept.

A translucent text box flashed before my eyes.

[Please confirm whether to accept the limited-time challenge mission of 'Abyss']

[Difficulty of this world: Medium]

[Note: If you refuse, the task will be skipped immediately and a new trial world will be generated.]

[Note 2: After completing the limited-time challenge mission, the player will randomly receive a random reward with a quality no lower than 'Excellent']

【whether】

[Remaining confirmation time: 00:09:56]

Su Ming stared at it for a long time, until only the time was ticking in the translucent text box.

Is it because I didn't choose to accept the mission of "defeating the Witch of the Abyss" mentioned earlier? Now I'm given another chance?
Not interested in killing Sertis or anything like that.

But defeating doesn’t necessarily mean killing, right?

Compared to running around like a headless fly in reality to find the so-called "channel", and having to drag Tia and the others along, leading the task of defeating Sertis under the guise of wasting time in a real magical world, who says it will be slower than in Tia's world?
You can have extreme trust when you are around, but can you also have extreme trust when you are not around?

"..."

Su Ming went to the first floor and looked at the note that An Shiyao replied to.

This is not the point where a husband with a wife wants nothing more, right? If even his wife wants to see him bring Setis back, and he still hesitates because of the difficulty of 'medium', then that is birth.

'Yes. '

Su Ming lay back on the sofa and put his arm around An Shiyao's slender shoulders.

Besides, I'm tired of the extremely low difficulty. If I go back to the inn, Sertis is there... How difficult can it be to guide myself?

5 month 18 day.

Night.

Sertis took off the fishnet stockings from her trouser legs.

"Because Brother Ming...his socks can no longer fit in him. He's gained weight."

"Would you like it better if your flesh was strangled? You call me Sister Skylark, but you're actually a bad person. You never said giving birth would be so painful."

"Like it?"

Sertis stretched out her foot and stepped on the pillow that Su Ming had slept on. A blush rose on her cheeks. "I know you are looking under the skirt. It's called Skylark... so I'll show it to you."

5 month 20 day.

Sartis left the town in a black robe.

"No...Ming likes me to rub his back. He also likes my legs."

"They said I could play for a year."

"..."

It was much better than she thought. Although it was a bit difficult, she could only think positively, as her body would only show some signs of contaminating living things.

5 month 20 day.

A year passed.

"Three years...shouldn't it be earlier because you wanted to see me?"

"Where will you come back from? Dead City? Have you come back yet?"

"..."

Didn't come back.

All that could be seen after Sertis's violent destruction were the ruins of the buildings.

'He lied to you.'

'He's been with many women and has lived a good life. He has long forgotten you.'

'Your legs can be played with for a year, but he said that other women around him... can be played with for a lifetime. Just like the women you have seen, who are more beautiful than you. Women who are liked more than you.'

When did it all start? A voice in my head that wasn't my own began to appear.

'Humans are like this, they are not trustworthy.'

"Like you, I have been betrayed before. That's why I have sympathy for you... Don't wait any longer."

'Why not leave it to me? I will find him and kill him. I will prove to you that he has forgotten you.'

"Shut up! I'm not a monster, he said... I'm just a normal woman."

"Even if I'm a monster, I have to give birth to his child. It's me."

"Get out of my body."

Even if I used my fingernails to dig my temples until they were bloody and bruised, the voice in my head was just a cold laugh.

Three years.

He said he would be back in three years.

Even if the situation now is completely different from what I said before, I will still wait. Just like when I was in the dead city, I was lonely and hard to bear, but I waited for him to appear. This time is the same. When he appears, I will also speak frankly... I want him, more than before.
