At the same time, the Mediterranean coast, the coast of the island of Cyprus.
Albert (the clone) and Mutt gathered around the campfire to warm themselves up, in order to dry the soaked hair as quickly as possible. The same soaked clothes were replaced, but the orcs (especially the big cats)
Once the hair on the body of cats and kittens is wet, it will always make them feel very uncomfortable if they are not dried quickly.
Fortunately, the island of Cyprus is now the territory of the Turkic Elephants, and most of the Elephants live in the Turkic Swamps. They have no strong sense of territory on the island, and there will be basically no patrols to patrol. Otherwise, Albert and the others would be at the beach.
He lit a fire to keep warm and was seen by the elephants from a distance, which probably caused disputes.
As for why these two people were supposed to rush to Lviv, but they camped here on the way? It was actually because the cavalry had just "crashed", and Mutt was arrogant behind Albert's (doppelgänger's) back, causing Albert to
He was distracted. With a twitch in his lower body, Albert's clone, who was suddenly out of strength, accidentally touched the joystick of the iron cavalry that was being controlled by the automatic guidance system, so the iron cavalry changed from the automatic navigation mode to the manual navigation mode, and then
It plunged magnificently below the sea level of the Mediterranean Sea. Of course, the result was that both of them were soaked from head to toe.
The waterproof function of the iron cavalry was very good, and it was able to continue sailing without any hindrance. Not only did his lower body feel sticky, but his whole body was still dripping with water. Albert had no choice but to drive the iron cavalry in a hurry to find a place to land, and arrived at the island of Cyprus.
on the coast.
"Can you explain what happened just now?" The tiger youth (the clone) asked a little angrily: "Can I regard it as a confession? Or is it a pure prank?"
"It's a test." The cat boy was warming himself by the fire while facing Albert, but turned his head to the side, his face flushed: "You are not the real Albert, you are just his clone, right?"
"That's right."
"But the clone is also an extension of his own will. Your thoughts and actions are consistent with his own, right?" The cat boy asked in a low voice: "In other words, no matter what attitude you adopt towards the same thing, he will also
They will adopt the same attitude to deal with it, right?"
Albert's clone was silent for a moment.
"So I just wanted to try the things I just did to you to see how you react. If you resisted, I would have stopped right away. But you didn't resist... That is to say, except for that
Apart from women, is it really possible for us...?"
"This is not certain." The clone of the tiger man youth sighed.
"Why?"
"I was summoned to this world as his clone, and actually acted as his [community of destiny]. But our clones also have origins, and we are Albert in other parallel worlds----"
--Other worlds that are very similar to this world, but have subtle differences in some details.
When the distance from him is far enough, our clones share consciousness with him and suppress the existence of our own consciousness, so he can use his own consciousness to control a large number of clones to act, and not because the clones each have their own
Thoughts lead to confusion.
But now the distance between me and him is more than one kilometer. This choice of [shared consciousness] probably has a distance limit, so now I am my own consciousness, the consciousness of [Albert from another parallel world]
.Although I was temporarily given all the memories in this world that belonged to him when I was summoned to this world, I still retain my memories in that world. I am equivalent to having the memories of two worlds.
There are two [lives belonging to Albert]."
"I...didn't understand." Mutt said with a wry smile.
"It might be easier to understand if I say it this way." Albert's clone sighed: "In my parallel world, Ruf is not dead, and I have agreed to his request. He and I are already.
.....That kind of relationship."
"Uh..." Mutt's eyes widened.
"That's why I reacted to what you just did." Albert's clone said with a red face: "After all, you look exactly like Ruf, and what you did is actually what we do every night.
There's not much difference."
"so------"
"So my reaction is not accurate. After all, I am [Albert from another parallel world], not [Albert from your world], kid." Albert's clone sighed: "Every time
Individual orientations may be changed by their life experiences. Different choices on the different paths of destiny will lead to a completely different life in the future. Just because in my world, Rufu survived
, and he has been acting with me since then, and he finally moved me, so I agreed to his request. I actually still resist doing that kind of thing with him, but we do live happily together.
But what about your world? In this world, Ruf is no longer here. And the Albert of this world met Bedivere. Everything he did after that was completely different from my original choice, and he also lived a
A life completely different from mine. Even the [Round Table Trial], which I never thought of participating in, he came to participate in. This is how he met you and the woman named Chanel.
------His life experience is different from mine. Do you still have confidence that what you just did to me will work for him?"
"As expected, it still doesn't work..." Mutt sighed.
"I said yes [may not work], I didn't say [must not work]." Albert's clone said: "You have the guts to use me for experiments, but you don't have the guts to use your own truth
The idea is to tell Albert, who truly belongs to this world, that you know Meow? Just say it boldly to whomever you like. If you don’t even have the courage, you are not qualified to say you like it."
"But even I'm not sure..." The cat boy curled up and said in confusion: "Sister Doha said it was just [a youthful impulse]. But I really don't know. I'm so scared."
I'm afraid that woman will snatch him away first. But I'm also afraid that if I say it out loud, our relationship will become different from before. What should I do?"
"Huh." Seeing Mutt so confused, Albert's clone stroked the cat boy's head with his hand: "Trouble is also a good thing, it is a part of youth. Just worry as much as you want. Even this little worry
I have never experienced it, which is equivalent to living this life in vain. And I------"
He revealed the shoulders of the cat boy: "I will stay with you until the Albert of this world removes my clone and sends me back to the parallel world that belongs to me."
As if softened, the cat boy put his head on the other person's chest and sighed: "If you were the one staying here instead of him------"
"No, that would be too selfish. In my parallel world, my Luffy is still waiting for me to go back." Albert's clone laughed.
"...Will you still remember me when you go back?"
"No. The clone that was summoned here, after returning to its own world, will have all the pain removed from its body and lose all memories of the time it came to this world. I probably won't remember everything you did.
I don’t even know you exist. After I return to my world, the pain I suffered in this world will be returned to Albert in this world, and the additional memories derived from this clone will be inherited by him---
---If the distance is close enough."
"Now that we are so far away, will...?" Mutt asked.
"The injuries I received will still be returned to him in full, so I have to be careful not to get seriously injured. But memory, that is something more special and complicated than pain, will probably evaporate like water vapor and disappear in the world.
Every corner of it can no longer be found."
The cat boy swallowed his saliva.
"In that case, I have a request." Because of his shyness, he lowered his voice unusually: "Do... do... with me?"
"No!" Albert's clone flatly refused: "Idiot, why would Meow suddenly think of such a thing?!"
"I want to confirm whether I really like you. That guy Leo also said before that you will understand after doing this kind of thing once. Whether you like it or hate it, everything will come to light after being sincere. So I want to confirm this
Everything. I want you to touch me, possess me, and enter me. Then I should know right away whether I hate being possessed by you."
"No. If you don't want it, you don't want it." The clone of the tiger man youth said: "If this body is controlled by Albert in this world and acts according to his wishes, that's a different matter. Now I have my own
I have consciousness, and I clearly remember my life in another world. To attack you even though you know this is like being disloyal to Luffy in my world. So it won’t work. I won’t do it.”
"Even if you don't remember anything after you go back?"
"Even so, it won't work." Albert's clone replied.
The cat boy sighed, but he seemed to be relieved. After sighing, he also breathed a sigh of relief: "You are a good person, you know? I only say this to you, but don't tell the world about the real Albert."
I know. Even if you are a clone, there is not much difference between you and him. Your essence is still noble... This is probably one of the reasons why I like you."
"I know, Mutt. I know." Albert's clone continued to stroke the cat boy's head, but did not do anything else out of the ordinary.
But the night was getting deeper, and the heat of the bonfire was not enough to keep the soaked two people warm enough. Mutt began to shiver. Albert's clone hugged each other tightly.
"...Doesn't it matter if you don't rush to Lviv?" the cat boy asked in a low voice.
"You have to dry yourself first."
"Wouldn't it be more conducive to water evaporation if it sticks like this?" Mutter asked again.
"But you are shaking."
"Idiot." Even though he was scolding, the cat boy cried and hugged Albert's clone tightly, snuggling tightly into his arms.
