Chapter 52, Chapter 52
Ye Sewei did not close her eyes.
The other person seemed to have said something, but the noise was so loud that she didn't hear a word clearly. She felt her eyelashes brushing against the other person's palm, and the cold hand curled up slightly in obvious shock.
Out of some unknown state of mind, she blinked a few more times.
"Don't blink."
The other party's voice came with some impatience.
This time she heard clearly.
But Ye Sewei suddenly felt that something was not right.
Of course she knew it was Morpheus, but was this man's voice... too young?
Thinking of this, she subconsciously raised her hand to pull the other person's hand down, but when her fingers touched the other person's fingers, the other person gently rotated her wrist and held it in her backhand.
Ye Sewei's heart skipped a beat and she raised her eyes.
The divine punishment that was pouring down before has disappeared. What comes into view is a young man's face with a slightly familiar outline, but obviously much greener than before. And I don't know why, I didn't feel anything before, but now.
After seeing the boy's overly handsome face, I always felt that the previous Morpheus seemed a bit like... something was missing?
She looked into the other person's pale eyes uncertainly: "Morpheus?"
The suspicion and uncertainty in the girl's heart were introduced into the boy's heart together with the murderous intention that had not dissipated just now. After she felt that it was him, her mood for a moment was like a swaying flower blooming on the river of killing.
The river of blood and the shy flowers create an extremely contrasting color contrast.
Morpheus didn't want to admit it, but at this moment, he happily changed his mind: "It's me."
"You did a great job."
Ye Sewei still had a lot of questions that she didn't want to express. Morpheus's other hand was already behind her head, and he pressed her head gently into his arms.
It seemed as if he and she were the only ones left in the world. The entire golden temple exploded beside them, but it did not affect the two of them at all. The illusion was completely filled with such light, and all the colors blended together, eventually becoming an inclusive world.
Everything is shining in pure white.
Everything was suddenly annihilated, and after a moment it returned to the original darkness, and the magic subtitles unfolded again.
[Magical Secret Realm 2: Fear.]
[Everyone has the deepest fear in their memory. Warriors, face your fears. 】
【This time, is it fear or fearlessness? 】
【Please make your choice.】
[There is no right or wrong choice, it has nothing to do with winning or losing. The way to bear the consequences of your choice is the key to passing the level. 】
fear.
Ye Sewei didn't feel any awareness that she was about to face fear. Even after these key words about the second level appeared in her consciousness, she didn't think about what she was afraid of.
The young Morpheus's body carried the fragrant scent that she was familiar with, but in comparison, it was lighter. It was entirely because the two were too close at this moment that it inevitably drifted into Ye Sewei's nose.
Yes, too close.
He didn't let go of his hand on her head, nor did he let go of his hand holding her fingers. He carried a certain kind of power that contained absolute control and undeniability. Ye Sewei felt that she was almost hearing the other person's words.
My heart beats.
No, that was not Morpheus's heartbeat. Her own heartbeat seemed to be filling all her senses. How could she have the time to take care of him?
In a place she didn't see, the scene changed. The young man raised his eyes and looked at what was in front of him.
There were four people in the group. Except for him and Ye Sewei, the other two people did not appear in the memory realm of Ye Sewei Temple just now. At this moment, they were standing in front of a black castle-like building.
The sky was dark, and the sound of jackdaws came from the dense forest behind the castle. On the silk-blue sky, the nearly dark clouds were very low, and the spire of the castle's bell tower almost seemed to break through the clouds.
Only then did he let go of Ye Sewei's hand.
Ye Sewei suddenly came back to her senses and backed away from the boy as if running away.
Although I don’t know what method Morpheus used, there is no doubt that he just helped her break through the secret realm of the temple.
She turned around and saluted him: "Thank you for helping me again."
When she slightly lifted the hem of her skirt, Ye Sewei was quite surprised to find that at some point, she had turned into a complicated and gorgeous skirt of white taffeta and dark purple, while the young man in front of her was wearing a very...
Orthodox dress——
His upper body is a white palace shirt, the golden embossed buttons on his vest are buttoned neatly to the last one, black trousers wrap his straight and slender legs, and he wears a pair of knee-length black strappy boots.
"How did you become like this?" Ye Sewei looked at his face and finally asked what she wanted to say before.
——What she means here is that she wants to know why Morpheus looks so young, as if he has returned to his teenage years. Just by looking at his face, he seems to be one or two years younger than her. But obviously, she doesn’t know.
Whether the other party deliberately misunderstood or something else, the answer had another meaning.
"Don't forget, we have two other teammates." The teenage version of Morpheus obviously talked a lot more than the youth version, and he did not hesitate to express more words with obvious emotions on this matter: "
We don’t yet know which idiots it is, but it’s clear that we’re being sucked into one of their fears and are most likely engaging in some kind of silly role-playing.”
"No, I want to ask..." Ye Sewei thought about her words: "Why did you..."
"Master, Miss. The engagement banquet is about to begin. All the guests have already taken their seats and are waiting for you two." The butler appeared behind the two of them like a ghost, interrupting Ye Sewei's words.
Morpheus quickly entered the plot, nodded proudly, said "hmm", raised his chin, and motioned for the other party to lead the way.
The housekeeper glanced at the two of them quietly, turned around, but Morpheus had a panoramic view and raised his arm towards Ye Sewei.
Ye Sewei put her hand on his arm knowingly.
A road automatically emerged under their feet, and they both took steps at the same time.
The lights of the dark castle lit up as they moved, and the street lights illuminated their feet one after another, casting long shadows.
Before entering the castle, Ye Sewei suddenly paused.
"It's possible for teammates... to play a role in the body of anyone in the secret realm, right?" She looked at Morpheus: "Is it possible that they also appeared in my secret realm just now?"
She still couldn't get used to the appearance of young Morpheus, and she was even more indescribably anxious about the inexplicable closeness between the two.
The young man lowered his eyes and looked at her: "Are they important?"
Ye Sewei:......
Is this a question of whether it’s important or not? It’s obviously written in the rules that identifying teammates is the key to clearing the level, okay!!
She was complaining in her heart, but she didn't show it at all on her face. She even showed a slightly confused smile: "Ah, isn't it important?"
Morpheus stared at her for a while, Ye Sewei's confused smile could hardly hold on, and then he burst into laughter.
Ye Sewei:......
There is a saying in Hama Pi that I don’t know whether to say or not.
She couldn't figure out what the young master was laughing at, and intuitively felt that she shouldn't figure it out, so she turned away without any curiosity.
The mood that was still a little anxious and looking forward to what she would encounter next was completely destroyed by this. Ye Sewei stepped into the castle with an empty mind and was extremely relaxed.
Melodious music was floating in the air, and guests were holding fine wines and chatting in the hall. The interlacing light and shadow of the glasses created a romantic and warm atmosphere. People kept coming up to say "congratulations" to Ye Sewei, which made Ye Sewei smile.
While feeling numb, I finally realized something belatedly.
"Is this an engagement party? Who is it to whom? Why is an engagement party a person's biggest fear?"
"The protagonist is naturally you," Morpheus's eyes moved and landed on her: "And me."
"As for fear—"
There was a bit of joking in the young man's eyes. He glanced upstairs and sneered: "Do you want to take a look?"
Before Ye Sewei nodded, the young man said "tsk": "It doesn't seem to be necessary."
Following his voice, the entire banquet hall seemed to have been put on pause. The next moment, the well-dressed adult men and women suddenly took off their formal clothes in an almost rude manner!
Ye Sewei:......?
Within a moment, the entire hall showed some kind of grotesque and absurd scene. At this moment, all humans seemed to have abandoned moral restraints and were completely dominated by the most primitive desires of primates.
"Fuck..." Ye Sewei couldn't hold it back. While letting go of Morpheus, she took a half step back and cursed: "What are these people doing?"
There is no emotion in Morpheus's eyes. If you look carefully, there is a kind of detached indifference in his too pale eyes, as if the absurd scene in front of him is different from the normal order of human society.
There is actually no essential difference in the scenarios.
The smile on his lips didn't even change.
The young man had no intention of covering Ye Sewei's eyes. It seemed to him that such a scene was not as harmful to her as the previous scene in which everyone in the temple insulted Ye Sewei.
However, Ye Sewei's expression became strange.
Suddenly, she noticed something in her mind.
If we have to talk about fear, for her, the biggest fear...isn't it just to become the stand-in female supporting character in the original book and novel?!
Damn it, why do you feel that if you start from this idea, there are several postures that overlap with some of the plots that she gradually recalled?!
Ye Sewei suddenly covered her face.
When I watched this scene just now, I still felt a little bit like I was watching a good show. After all, her soul is also an adult, so it doesn't matter. But once you look at it from a different angle...
Hiss, damn it!
"Holy shit -" a startled male voice sounded behind the two of them, and the red-haired boy stood stunned at the door of the castle: "Holy shit, what is this? Isn't this the fucking castle where the woman who seduced my cheap sister's fiancé was engaged?
?”
Ye Sewei had not yet realized the complicated relationship between the characters from this series of attributive words. Behind Belair, there was the sound of horse hooves again. The girl in red clothes spun off the horse and shook her head angrily.
Horsewhip walked in: "You are a despicable person who seduces someone else's fiancé - hiccup?"
The girl who had a three-thirds resemblance to Belair was caught in the too exciting scene and was shocked on the spot. After a while, she tilted her head and looked at Belair: "Brother Belair? Why are you here?"
She turned her eyes to Ye Sewei, and her eyes gradually changed from confused to angry at the beginning: "It was you who seduced my fiancé! You shameless bitch!"
