Chapter 74 Is it a very familiar feeling?
Bai Ye just watched.
She has been doing this since the voice in her mind told her "you can do this." She was watching when Gloria became Gloria Rithberette; she watched when Gloria found herself a member of a very amazing secret association; she was still watching when Gloria wore a deer hunting hat and a plaid shawl and hung the sign "Watson and Sherlock Holmes" at the door of the gloomy mansion, because she was allowed to live without being anyone and only as herself.
Although until now, Bai Ye still doesn't understand what kind of person he is.
But after a long period of observation, she gradually understood what kind of person Gloria was.
This guy who appeared in his mind at some point was obviously a second personality but had a completely opposite personality to him. He kept saying that he would help her realize her wish. He didn't look very smart, but in fact... he was really not very smart, and even a little clumsy.
But she was very serious, a kind of seriousness that made Bai Ye feel scared.
No matter how identity and memory change, she can always quickly put herself in and switch smoothly between every role on the stage. As a princess, she should be elegant and noble, and as an actor, she should be calm and generous. Even the most ordinary girl in the world can play the most ordinary appearance, ordinary and unobtrusive.
This should be said to be a unique talent. In fact, it is not difficult to play these roles well, because their personality, background, living habits, speaking styles, and even styles of behavior usually flow into your mind with the sudden memories. However, how to accept them is the most critical issue. Bai Ye cannot do it. She feels extremely disgusted with all memories that do not belong to her. She can even be described as hatred. She would rather be regarded as a madman or mental illness by others than drive them out of her mind. However, Gloria's speed of accepting them is as natural and rapid as a sponge to absorb water. This may be related to her empty space - a container with nothing will naturally not resist the injection from the outside world.
In an impolite way, Bai Ye even feels that she is born to be a shadow of someone. The "someone" here does not refer specifically to a person or a type of person, but countless specious shadows in your life, residual images in the mirror, those who have died in the past, those who are still alive now, and those who are about to be born in the future, are all included. Ordinary people cannot imagine the mood when they see countless different selves in a mirror, but the girl accepts it with peace of mind, as she said to Bai Ye: "I was born to respond to your wishes. If you don't want to be someone, then let me be her."
And what about Bai Ye?
Bai Ye just needs to watch.
For many years, she has been fighting an endless maze, a connected mirror and a hazy and weird dream. She is like a scarred soldier, using her stubbornness and hardness as weapons, looking for the wonderful tactics of breaking the loneliness of the world in the interweaving cycles year after year, but she was repeatedly defeated. She was forced to retreat into the fortress she built on the spiritual high ground, entrusting the heavy responsibility of war to the blank soul who had just stepped onto the battlefield, and curling up in the corner and licking her wounds silently.
Maybe at first she just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, and when she recovered, she would immediately go into the endless war. But gradually Bai Ye found that she would live a more relaxed life when she stopped fighting. The fortress that protected her was extremely strong, its foundation was cold tears, the walls were disdainful smiles, and the city walls were also equipped with crossbow arrows named introverted artillery and cannons named resistance, which were enough to block all invading enemies. However, more importantly, her successor seemed to be more adaptable to this war than herself. She eliminated the war not through battle, but through coexistence with the enemy. This sounded a bit of a compromise, but if the compromise was not herself, it might not matter?
After realizing this, Bai Ye rarely walked out of her fortress, and resisted all communication with the outside world with a stubborn attitude, not thinking that there was any need for communication between her and them, which made her even more cold and silent as if she had a slim heart polished by wind and snow. The only person who could make her speak was Gloria. As mentioned earlier, although she was very adaptable and could always actively participate in every role, she was a little clumsy. So when she played the role, she often encountered unsolvable problems and sought suggestions from Bai Ye. What should I do to act more naturally? What should I do when I was suspected? What should I do? What should I do? Every time this time Bai Ye would silently find out the part she needed from the memory of this character and tell her what to do. She has always resisted these memories, but at this time, the girl herself didn't know why.
The only person who could let Bai Ye leave this fortress was Gloria, although she was only temporarily leaving. She always forced Bai Ye to control her body on the grounds that she needed rest, wanted to be lazy, and she was not in the mood to play today. Bai Ye naturally saw her little thoughts, after all, she never concealed her, and always thought she was clever. Gloria might be kind-hearted, but the more Bai Ye contacted the outside world, the more she hated others' attitude towards her, the inexplicable memories in her mind, and even hated this body that could become anyone in the world but could not become her own. She could never control herself and did things that violated her character's identity, so that almost all the characters played by Gloria showed symptoms of "schizophrenia".
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Naturally, people will only think that Gloria is the normal master personality, while Bai Ye is the evil secondary personality - or, in other words, negative personality.
Bai Ye took an indifferent attitude towards this and even let it go, because she sometimes felt that Gloria was the most suitable personality for this body. It would be great if she really had a secondary personality born from the curse. One day she disappeared without a trace, and the problems that bothered herself and Gloria would no longer exist.
Later, she appeared in Bai Ye's personality and did some very excessive things, which fueled these rumors and further confirmed that Gloria was the master's personality. But Gloria was very angry after discovering it. It was the first time the two quarreled. Although they quickly reconciled, Bai Ye was still angry that she did not understand her good intentions. She felt that this guy was simply a fool, she didn't know anything, and wanted everything. From that day on, the tone of her talking to Gloria became cold and stern, and her name was also changed to "little fool Gloria". Gloria no longer just echoed her, occasionally refuted a few words, and looked unhappy when she was scolded.
But both of them knew very well that this was definitely not because their relationship had become worse, it should be said that the opposite is true.
The two personalities of twins maintained a wonderful relationship in this way, and walked all the way until they met the young man with short silver hair in the city of Renweiting, which changed their fate later.
Contacting these travelers of unknown origin is definitely the boldest decision made by the girl in her life. This is the same as both Bai Ye and Gloria, but it may be the inevitable result of lack of security. When Gloria lurked as a member of the association and secretly stole intelligence, Bai Ye had a premonition of her future destiny; and when she learned her true identity from the mouth of Linger and her group, this premonition did not turn into a relief and relaxation. She was indifferent and restrained about it, as if the so-called "girl's royalty" identity was not the "self" she had been pursuing, but just an ordinary one in the countless changes in her identity in the past. It would soon disappear until she became another person.
Gloria was very excited. She felt that she was finally on the right path, with the royal power and curse, destiny and future, desire and urgency all echoing each other. She put too heavy expectations and unpredictable trust to her new companions, and even wanted to inform them of her true identity, but was eventually stopped by Bai Ye. The latter told her that in order to win the trust of these people, the part about the curse and twin personality can be revealed, but not completely revealed. It is best to modify it and describe Gloria as the master personality, and she is the secondary personality born in the curse.
"Why?" the little fool asked her stupidly.
Of course, Bai Ye didn't want to tell her the real reason, so he casually made an excuse to perfunctory: "Because you look so easy to bully. If they knew that you were a personality born in the curse and wouldn't resist, would they want to destroy you? So I will be the sub-personal personality, and act coldly and harshly, they should not dare to act rashly."
It seems to make sense.
Gloria's mouth stuttered for a moment and whispered: "But I think Mr. Linger and the others are not that kind of people."
"Idiot! Don't use feelings, but through contact and observation! How long have you known them? Do you know what kind of person they are? In short, just listen to me!" Bai Ye made the decision unreasonably. What else Gloria wanted to say, but she had already taken control of her body away.
What happened later was as everyone knew.
Although the result of the incident confirmed Gloria's statement that these travelers not only did not eliminate Bai Ye's "subpersonality", they even wanted to seek help from the great goddess crown prince, give new life to both personalities in the same body, and make her born with curses live openly in this world. It can be said to be a typical representative of a good person, but Bai Ye never regrets her decision. For this girl who was so cruel that she was tempered by memory, she has experienced countless emotions in her life, lonely, sad, angry, unwilling, and even despair. She has confronted them, fought, fought, compromised, and even learned to coexist with them, but regret does not belong to one of them because it is too weak.
For Bai Ye, weakness is a very distant feeling.
Sometimes she could see them, but it was out of reach. For example, when she woke up and opened her eyes and found herself in a strange place, or when everyone around her kept chatting about her "what should you be" or when people whispered about how hateful that demonic personality was, perhaps it could be traced back to when she stood on the edge of the old castle balcony, the man who could usually claim to be her father ran away in panic.
Whenever it appears, Bai Ye will frown and endure the itchy feeling of the tip of his nose, as if there are mosquitoes flying around him all the time. At first, it makes people very irritated, but when you get to know each other gradually, you will feel, ah, that's not the case.
On the contrary, Gloria is very weak, which is almost everyone's impression of her. She loves to cry and dare not say too heavy words. When she sees birds falling from the tree, she will exclaim. When she holds up a precious crystal vase with her delicate and weak palms, everyone is worried about whether the pieces of the vase will cut her, rather than the way she grits her teeth and insists on it. She occasionally gains some special identities, athletes or warriors, and has a healthy body, but this weakness does not refer to physical bodies, but a kind of aura, as if this adjective constitutes everything for a girl.
Ironically, in the eyes of everyone, the relatively weak Gloria is the master personality that controls this body, and the cold and harsh Bai Ye can only be a secondary personality and a negative personality. Because humans need to have a certain degree of weakness to integrate into society, and for human life, social relations are almost equivalent to the meaning of life. Only those who can integrate into this social ecology are "people", and all other accessories are all accessories.
What is even more ironic is that Bai Ye wants Gloria to be the master of this body, even though her reasons are different from everyone.
No one would understand her.
No one would understand a cold, harsh monster who exiled herself to other people's and social relations. She lived in a solid fortress built for herself, with no friend, no emotion, no wish, and was with loneliness all day long, looking up at the distant weakness.
...
Until now.
Bai Ye raised his head and saw the young man looking at him quietly.
The tip of her nose suddenly became a little itchy, making people want to sneeze heavily.
But the girl knew she would never do something like that.
As she said, for Bai Ye, it was a very distant emotion.
"Don't...come here..."
So she begged coldly.
