About how my wife resurrected me as tentacles after my death.

In the middle of the night...

Chen Yuan lay on Yu Wan's chest, quietly listening to her soft breathing.

She fell asleep.

He was sleeping soundly, his brow slightly furrowed, as if he was worried about something even in his dreams.

One hand was still unconsciously clasped to his chest, protecting Chen Yuan tightly.

Chen Yuan waited for a while to make sure she wouldn't wake up.

Then he began to ponder a philosophical question.

Why does absorbing this area increase experience points?

He recalled for a moment.

Although I think I've inhaled quite a bit of this stuff before... cough cough.

Forget it, I can't figure it out.

As long as it can be added, that's fine.

He quietly tightened the suction cup and took another drag.

[Experience points +3]

Current experience points: (96/99)

One more bite.

[Experience points +3]

Current experience points: (99/99)

[Congratulations! Your experience points are full, you can level up!]

Chen Yuan stared at the flashing "Upgrade" button, and his heart inexplicably started racing.

upgrade.

He took a deep breath, and then solemnly poked the button with the tip of his tentacle.

[Upgrading...]

[Host's current form has been detected as "Small Tentacle (Normal)". Upgrade path is as follows:]

[1. Enhanced Tentacles: Increased size and strength, unlocking basic attack skills]

[2. Branch Evolution: Special abilities can be unlocked by consuming additional experience points (current experience insufficient)]

[Default Selection: Enhance Tentacles]

[Upgrade Begins—]

Chen Yuan suddenly felt a heat throughout his body.

Then--

His body began to grow larger.

It didn't change gradually; it expanded all at once.

His tentacles, which were originally only as thick as a wrist, grew thicker and longer at a speed visible to the naked eye.

double.

three times.

Five times.

Chen Yuan: "???"

Wait, wait, wait! Stop it from getting too long, or you'll wake her up!

But the body was completely out of control and continued to expand.

The deep purple tentacles are now as thick as an adult's arm and emit a faint glow.

The tentacles themselves were also much firmer than before, no longer soft and limp, but full of power.

He tried to move around and found that he could control it much more flexibly than before. He could no longer just wriggle around, but move with real precision.

But that's not the point!

The point is-

He's too big now!

Yu Wan's chest was only a small area, but his swelling made her entire neckline look bulge out.

Chen Yuan desperately chanted in his mind: Stop, stop, stop, stop.

at last.

The expansion stopped when the diameter of the tentacles was almost as large as Yu Wan's slender waist.

Chen Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked at her cautiously.

He was still asleep, his breathing shallow and steady, but his brows furrowed slightly, as if he sensed something was wrong, but he didn't wake up.

That was close.

Chen Yuan tried to move again.

Sure enough, it's much easier to control than before.

Before, when he tried to move, he couldn't muster any strength and could only rub weakly.

Now it's different. If he wants the tentacle tip to go left, it goes left; if he wants it to curl up, it curls up.

I want it to be—

He tried to make the tentacles stand upright.

Pfft.

Halfway there.

The tip is sticking up, but the whole thing is still lying on someone's chest.

However, it has already made great progress!

Chen Yuan was immersed in the joy of becoming stronger when he suddenly realized a serious problem.

He's so old now, how are we going to explain this tomorrow morning?

No, when Yu Wan wakes up tomorrow morning, the first thing she'll notice is that the small tentacles have turned into large tentacles.

What will she think?

"Has Ah-Yuan grown up?"

Or is it that "A-Yuan has mutated"?

He tried to think: get smaller, get smaller, get smaller.

The tentacles really started to shrink.

Thankfully, it can turn back...

He tried several more times, getting bigger, getting smaller, getting bigger, getting smaller—

Until a reminder suddenly popped up on the panel:

[Warning: Frequent transformations will consume energy; use in moderation.]

Chen Yuan then stopped.

He glanced at the new information on the panel:

【LV.2 Enhanced Tentacles (Normal)】

Experience points: (0/299)

[Unlocked Skills:]

【1. Flexible: The size of the tentacles can be freely controlled, up to 5 times their original volume】

[2. Basic Strength: Tentacle strength is increased, allowing the user to lift objects weighing no more than 5kg]

Mimicry Level: 0 (Unlocked)

[Description: A useless tentacle, but it can already do so much more for its master.]

Chen Yuan stared at the message "Do more for the master," feeling that the system was hinting at something... inappropriate.

He glanced at Yu Wan again.

She was still asleep, and I don't know what she was dreaming about, but the corners of her mouth were slightly curved, as if she was having a sweet dream.

Chen Yuan gently touched her little face with the tip of his shrunken tentacle...

Good night.......

.......

the next day.......

It was just dawn.

Sunlight streamed in through the cracks in the small window and fell onto the bed.

Yu Wan groggily opened her eyes, still half-asleep...

Why do I feel all sticky...?

I was too tired yesterday, and I've been busy ever since I got back.

In the end, I didn't even take a shower before lying down.

I woke up now and feel like... something's not right...

The nightgown was wrinkled and wrapped around her body, and the neckline had somehow come undone, revealing a large expanse of her collarbone.

The small purple tentacle on its chest was still there, curled up quietly, as if it were sleeping.

But her attention was quickly drawn to something else.

There were two small damp patches on the chest area of ​​the nightgown.

Right at those two points.

She reached out and gently pressed it; it was wet and a little sticky.

It's not sweat, it's...

Vague fragments flashed through her mind; she seemed to have dreamt of A-Yuan again, dreamt that he kissed her like before, and then...

Yu Wan covered her face.

I had another wet dream.

And this time...she got her nightgown wet again...

.......
