Su Xun's words made Xiao Xiao feel at a loss for a moment.
He fell into silence.
He didn't know what kind of answer could make this man on the verge of collapse feel better?
…
The man's cry was suppressed and hoarse, echoing in this pure white space.
…
"Feel sorry."
After a long time, the man's muffled voice came out from between his fingers, "I lost my temper."
…
"It's so ugly."
The man murmured to himself, his voice vague as if he was holding it in his mouth.
…
"Forget what I just said."
This sentence is somewhat clear.
The man's mood is gradually recovering.
…
After all, he has experienced a lot in the past two years.
A battle of wits and courage with a monster?
Haha, what a story-telling experience.
The reality is far less exciting than the novel.
He does not have the abilities of the novel's protagonists, nor do they have their opportunities.
All he could do was to survive while looking for a miracle to happen.
…
He waited for two full years and finally got this miracle.
…
In the past two years, all the colors in his life have faded away, leaving only an obscure gray color.
Even though he had a firm belief in saving his mother's soul, due to the huge disparity in strength between him and the monster, his despair would always make him lose all hope from time to time.
At that time, he was just holding on for a breath.
…
Moreover, even if it is for his mother, it is true that he is helping others to do evil.
But he couldn't help himself.
Every time he thought of resisting, severe pain would sweep through his body.
He was so determined that he would rather suffer physical pain than go against his own will. He wanted to save his mother, but he did not want to hurt others or even sacrifice others because of it.
...
He knew that the right thing to do was to follow the monster.
He does whatever the monster tells him to do.
After all, this is the only way to make it relax its vigilance against him and expose its flaws in front of him.
But, he can't do it.
If his mother knew that he had done this, she would be disappointed in him, right?
The last thing he wanted to see was his mother's disappointed eyes.
…
But, he was naive after all.
That's not just a monster, it's a demon.
It actually took control of his body!
…
Su Xun watched helplessly as he walked towards a young girl.
The girl looked at him with bright eyes and two cute dimples at the corners of her mouth.
He screamed crazily in his mind for her to run away, but a gentler smile appeared on his face.
…
This experience was too bad and too scary.
If he can't even control himself, what does he have left?
Why should he fight against monsters when he has even lost his body?
Why should he save his mother's soul?
...
Moreover, what frightens him even more is, will one day the monster even wipe out his consciousness?
Then, there really is no one named Su Xun in the world.
So, who can give his mother peace after death?
…
Su Xun was really scared.
He originally thought that he was not afraid of death. What he was afraid of was that if he died, Su's mother's soul would be imprisoned by the monster forever.
However, he found that he was more afraid that although he was clearly alive, it seemed more like he was dead.
He no longer tries to disobey the monster.
But he doesn’t really obey the monster’s words.
Just this, he really can't do it.
…
Monsters are monsters after all, and do not have the delicate and complex psychology of humans.
Maybe it's also because of its strength that it doesn't disdain these twists and turns.
However, this gave him a chance.
…
Because of his cooperation, the monster no longer controlled his body.
Therefore, he had the opportunity to give some reminders to those women who were attracted by monsters without leaving any trace.
…
He should be thankful that although the monster is very patient with the prey it hunts, it doesn't have much patience with the hunting process.
Moreover, the monster wants to collect beautiful faces with different expressions.
It's not the usual fear.
Just like the look on his mother's face.
He quickly suppressed the killing intent and hatred in his heart.
…
All he needs to do is to make the woman the monster likes be a little wary of him.
Just make the other party not easily agree to his invitation.
After being rejected several times, the monster will lose interest in the woman.
It will soon fall in love with other women.
…
Even if it’s not this woman, it’s that woman.
What he did didn't seem to help.
However, he can lengthen the monster's hunting cycle and slow down its hunting speed through such small actions.
It can be considered to be better than nothing.
…
His abilities are limited and he is unwilling to do nothing.
Because in that case, Su Xun is very afraid that one day he will turn into the monster he hates most?
And some small actions that are not discovered are the limit of what he can do without angering the monster.
…
In order to put on a good show and deceive the monster, he put a lot of effort into controlling his emotions.
He thought that at this point, he had done a good job.
Unexpectedly, I still had mood swings so easily.
It is really embarrassing for a grown man to cry so embarrassed in front of someone who is almost a stranger even if he is his savior.
Even if this is just his dream.
…
But, is this really just his dream?
Su Xun couldn't help but feel a little confused.
He raised his head, his eyes were still red, but his face had been wiped clean.
He looked at Xiao Xiao intently.
So real.
The other party's reaction, words, actions, and subtle expression changes are all too real.
…
It was obvious that he only had a one-time relationship with the other party.
He didn't understand everything about the other person, and even in that one-on-one encounter, he only saw the other person's profile, and he didn't even see the other person's whole face.
If the dream is based on his real-life experience, then shouldn't the person in front of him only have half a face?
Or did the dream automatically fill in that half of the face?
…
How could such a real person appear in his dream? Su Xun suddenly realized that he still didn’t know the name of his savior?
"I'm sorry I forgot to ask. My name is Su Xun. You already know it."
He remembered that his savior had directly called him by name.
After all, it was his dream, so it's not surprising that the other party knew his name.
"But I don't know your name yet?"
…
"Xiao Xiao."
Following his introduction, the word "Xiao Xiao" outlined in gold lines appeared in the air.
This is the illusion created by Philip.
In the illusion, Feifei is the master, and naturally he can do whatever he wants.
…
Su Xun stared blankly at the two golden words floating in the air.
"Xiao Xiao?"
Did you actually tell him his name?
Did he come up with this too?
...
"Yes, hello."
Xiao Xiao smiled and stretched out his hand.
…
Su Xun reached out and took hold of Xiao Xiao's hand stretched out in front of him.
This is etiquette.
Until Su Xun was pulled up by Xiao Xiao, Su Xun was still a little confused.
