Because he had no relevant memories, Yuanxiang really didn't know how to respond to this seemingly proud aunt. He could only find an acquaintance from the past to talk to first. Just then, Yuanxiang suddenly felt that the temperature around him seemed to have dropped a lot.
"Yuanxiang, you've arrived."
Frostnova, who had led the team back, took off her hood, strode over, and looked at Genji with a smile, saying:
"It's been a long time. Have you finished everything on your end? You don't know, a lot has happened to the Reunion Movement while you were gone. Wait, you don't look well. Are you injured...?"
At this moment, Froststara finally noticed that Genji's gaze towards her was strange, as if he were looking at a stranger. This made her frown in displeasure. Genji sighed helplessly, made an inviting gesture, and said softly:
"If you don't mind, could we talk in private for a moment? A lot has happened to me too."
202 Love at first sight for Talulah
Without much hesitation, Shuangxing accepted Yuanxiang's invitation and followed him to a corner of the village. Then she saw Yuanxiang suddenly twitch and collapse, looking like he was about to die. Startled, Shuangxing gasped and hurriedly turned to call for help. After all, her physical condition was special. Although Yuanxiang had held her hand without injury before, who knew if touching him now would worsen his condition?
However......
Just as Froststar was about to utter the words to rouse someone, the person on the ground suddenly sprang to life, stood up, covered her lips, and whispered:
"I'm sorry, the situation was special, so I tested you a little."
"...What on earth is going on!?"
Yuanxiang's pale face and weak state were the basis for Shuangxing's belief that something was wrong with him. However, looking at his sharp eyes, she was certain that he had probably encountered something that caused this situation. This made Shuangxing somewhat dissatisfied. Even if my attitude towards you was a little unfriendly before, did you have to test me like this?!
Faced with Frostnova's displeased gaze, Genji calmly withdrew his hand and shook it several times. To be honest, before making a move, he had anticipated that this person's body temperature would be very cold, but he did not expect that once he actually touched him, if he hadn't reacted in time and used Ripple, his hand would have been frozen off.
"Please let me explain, this is what happened..."
Gensou briefly explained his amnesia to Shimohoshi. Although it sounded somewhat unbelievable, recalling Gensou's previous combat prowess and mysterious, unknown origins, Shimohoshi didn't dwell on it too much and accepted Gensou's explanation. Then, she narrowed her eyes and asked, puzzled:
"So you were sure I was okay just now by doing that? Is that one of your magical little tricks?"
"No, this is just a normal observation."
Gensho pointed to his eyes as he answered:
"When I was pretending to be dead, you looked really worried. If I could still be mistaken, then I can only praise your acting skills for being too realistic."
"..."
"Hey, this icicle can really kill someone if it hits you."
Looking at the icicles embedded in the nearby rock, Gensou couldn't help but whisper to Frostnova, who had suddenly fallen silent:
"Special times call for special measures. I'm sorry to take advantage of your kindness, but let's put aside our little conflict for now. Tell me, what has happened to the Reunion Movement during this time, and why is Alina so badly injured?"
Frostnova sighed, recalling some unpleasant memories brought back by the topic, and leaned against the wall beside her, answering his question leisurely.
Actually, this isn't an old problem. The fact that Reunion Movement accepted all infected people as members from the start already sowed the seeds of conflict, because many infected people just wanted to join Reunion Movement to get the necessary supplies to survive on this tundra.
Therefore, when the Reunion Movement actively clashed with armed forces such as the Ursus Pickets, these members began to feel uneasy. They started to subtly express things like, "As long as there is no war, everyone is doing well," "Ursus is very powerful, we infected should not fight against them, we should live well one day at a time," and "We should not resist, we should hand over our weapons to appease the lords' anger and beg them to let us go."
When these words reached her father, Patriot, the general wanted to eliminate all those who were undermining morale, but Talulah stopped him. Then, the young dragon girl leader gathered everyone and said that if anyone wanted to leave, they could say so. The Reunion Movement would not only not force them to stay, but would also give those who left a certain amount of food so that they would have enough time to find a new place to live.
Furthermore, at the end of her speech, Talulah also revealed her identity, admitting that she was the adopted daughter of the Duke of Ursus. However, she also stated that before her noble status, she was more of a Reunion member, and that she would lead the Reunion Movement to change the future of the Infected, and would not betray the trust of any member.
Then...then things unfolded as expected. Members kept leaving, and the once bustling Reunion Movement base gradually became deserted. However, neither Patriot nor Talulah reacted much to this, especially Talulah. Even if all the Reunion Movement members left, she believed that there would be comrades who understood her ideals and could fight alongside her in the future.
But soon, an accident occurred. While Talulah and the others were fighting outside, an accident happened within the Reunion Movement. Some members who wanted to leave the Reunion Movement wanted to take more food and tried to cause trouble to divert everyone's attention so that they could sneak into the warehouse. However, when they tried to set the house on fire, Alina discovered their actions and shouted to stop them, but she was slashed by the thugs. If her voice hadn't attracted the patrol team, she probably would have died on the spot.
Meanwhile, the Reunion Movement, fighting outside, also encountered an unexpected incident. While pursuing the picket team, they passed through a village and discovered that the villagers were cruelly torturing infected who were passing by and seeking food by locking them in empty warehouses and starving them to death. The village was then slaughtered by the enraged infected. By the time Talulah arrived, the village had already been engulfed by the flames of the infected's revenge.
"So, I'm very worried about Talulah's condition right now."
Frostnova sighed. After the events in the village, Talulah had become much more silent. After receiving news of Alina's critical illness, the young leader became even more taciturn. Just then, some Reunion members fell into Ursus's trap and urgently needed rescue. After a brief consideration, Talulah led a team to provide assistance. However, Patriot asked Frostnova to return first, ostensibly to settle things at home, but also secretly hoping that if Alina really died, at least Frostnova's Originium Arts could preserve her body so that Talulah could see her one last time upon her return.
“Yuanxiang, although you don’t remember your memories with us now, I hope you can go see Talulah. My dad and I aren’t good at comforting people, and besides, Talulah still trusts you.”
"I see."
After listening to Froststar's words, Gensou nodded and said softly:
"In that case, let's not delay. Give me directions, and I'll head over right away. By the way..."
Gensato, holding up 'Cyclone', instructed Froststar:
"If Alina wakes up, tell her not to come to my place, it's dangerous, understand?"
"Well, don't worry."
After receiving Frostnova's reply, Gengo transformed into Kamen Rider Cyclone and followed the direction she indicated, riding the wind to search for the dragon girl's whereabouts. About ten minutes later, he finally saw the team that was resting. He circled down slowly to avoid attracting unnecessary attacks. This emerald green figure was naturally recognized at a glance by the old members of Reunion. They excitedly explained the deeds of the Kamen Rider in the sky to the new comrades next to them. Looking at this familiar figure, Talulah's gloomy face finally showed a smile after many days.
Ok?
After landing, Yuanxiang was slightly taken aback, because Chen Huijie's description of Talulah was "a silver-haired dragon girl in military uniform, easily recognizable." He had seen the silver-haired dragon girl, but why had she changed her military uniform into a black Lolita dress, and...
Gazing at that beautiful figure, Genji gently pressed his hand to his chest. Just moments ago, his heart had skipped a beat when he saw Talulah in that pose. Genji was familiar with this feeling; it was the feeling of being moved, the touch of love at first sight, so...
There's something wrong with this woman.
Gengo's eyes suddenly sharpened. He had previously mentioned to Kirisu Mafuyu that his luck with women was strange. Any woman who made him fall in love at first sight was bound to have a big problem. Gengo had personally verified this for seventeen years without exception.
However, I haven't felt this way in a long time. Wow, now I really want to touch her dragon horns and rub her tail.
Of course, it was just a thought. Gengo was simply using this "heart-fluttering buff" to finally appreciate the beauty of the opposite sex after a long time. To be honest, it might be because he had dealt with quite a few beautiful monster hosts over the years, which led him to become more enamored when he encountered beautiful women on the street.
"It's been a long time since I've seen Yuanxiang."
Seeing Yuanxiang land on the ground, Talulah smiled and went to greet him, but the boy suddenly turned his head away, not wanting to meet her gaze. This puzzled her, and she didn't understand why he reacted this way.
Yuanxiang was speechless. This damn crush! Talulah smiled at him just now, and good heavens, his brain automatically applied a beauty filter to her. This was truly unprecedented. There must be something seriously wrong with this woman.
"Sorry, I misread it. I thought there was something over there."
Fortunately, with the mask concealing his identity, Genji was able to easily find an excuse to cover up what had just happened. Afterward, he deactivated his transformation, gave Talulah a thumbs-up, and said:
"Alina, I've healed you. When you go back, the little deer will definitely come out to greet you, all lively and energetic."
"Really?! That's wonderful..."
The moment Talulah saw Gensou, she had been hoping for news about Alina, but she was also worried that it might be too late. So, as Gensou circled in the air, her heart was in her throat. Now, finally, some good news had arrived, causing Talulah to breathe a sigh of relief, even shedding tears of joy. The dragon girl tightly grasped Gensou's hand, her voice trembling with emotion as she said:
"Thank you, Gensou, thank you so much. Alina isn't dead...that's wonderful..."
"Ah, it was nothing, don't mention it, cough cough."
At this moment, Genji pulled his hand away somewhat awkwardly. Talulah noticed this and looked up at Genji with curiosity. She saw the boy with a slightly flushed face. Well, although this word is not very appropriate to use on a man, he was so cute. She really wanted to pinch his cheeks.
Tsk... My body is really obedient.
On the other side, Gengo was inwardly berating himself. He didn't need to look in the mirror to know how innocent he looked; he was truly embarrassing himself in front of the Zaibatsu X.
"Hey, where's your military uniform? I almost didn't recognize you wearing this all of a sudden."
Gensou casually changed the subject to divert Talulah's attention from him. When asked the question, Talulah was taken aback. She looked down at her clothes and blinked in confusion. To be honest, she didn't know why she had changed into this outfit. Her military uniform was clean and not damaged. Well, she decided to just say it was a whim.
"Um, don't misunderstand, I didn't mean anything by it. It's your freedom to wear whatever you want."
Before Talulah could answer, Genji spoke up to explain. At that moment, the silver-haired dragon girl realized that Genji was acting strangely today. Compared to before, he now seemed more like a boy his age.
"Ah~~~ I'll be honest, you look really beautiful in this outfit. If you walk around my place, I'm afraid a whole bunch of people will want to write you love letters."
Gensho suddenly sighed helplessly, ending the topic in a self-deprecating manner, and then pointed to the woods behind him with his thumb, saying:
"I have something I want to talk to you about. Can we go over there and talk?"
"Of course, please."
Talulah accepted Genji's invitation without hesitation and followed him. But... as they walked, Talulah heard a strange commotion behind her. After catching a few key words, the dragon girl stared blankly at Genji in front of her, then at the woods in the distance. "Next, we'll be going in alone... could it be...?"
Even if you haven't eaten pork, you've always seen pigs run. This scene immediately reminded Talulah of some erotic scenarios, making her heart race and her bright eyes widen. This...this...Yuanxiang is indeed a reliable and good man, but...but...the Reunion Movement is only just beginning. Isn't it inappropriate to divert some of her energy to romance? But...but...rejecting him feels like a waste. Wait, wait, no, no, Yuanxiang is only seventeen this year. If I agree, will Huijie catch me and take me to the police station?!
Talulah felt her face burning hot, her mind racing with all sorts of wild thoughts. Her heart was pounding with Originium Bugs, and every step she took toward the forest felt like she was going to her execution.
What Talulah didn't notice was that as she shyly pondered, wisps of black energy dissipated from the edges of her pupils, as if powerless to intervene in the girl's wavering emotions and had no choice but to retreat.

203 Talulah's Curse
Hmm? Something has changed.
As Yuanxiang walked ahead, he suddenly felt a strange sensation coming from behind. He subconsciously turned around and saw Talulah, who tensed up after noticing his gaze. The dragon girl's tail bounced up like a cat's fur standing on end, and her gaze kept darting around. Her blushing cheeks looked especially cute against the backdrop of her silver hair.
but.....
It was utterly tasteless.
The initial flutter in his heart had quietly dissipated. Genji calmly looked at the dragon girl in front of him, his gaze becoming slightly sharper. Due to the loss of his memory, Genji could only discover the danger of his 'love at first sight' through written records. This was the first time he had actually experienced it in person, so he was very curious about what it was about these women that made him so infatuated.
At this moment, Gensou seemed to have found a clue to the answer. Recalling Talulah just now, she had a faint but strange aura about her—cunning, shrewd, and arrogant yet calm, as if she were walking on the edge of a knife. The stimulation and sense of crisis brought about by such a complex aura might be one of the reasons that attracted him.
But now...
Gensho glanced at Talulah, whose movements had stiffened under his scrutiny, and couldn't help but chuckle to himself. In comparison, she seemed much more naive at this moment.
So the question is, what exactly caused this change in her?
Thinking of this, Gensou couldn't help but glance at Talulah, whose face was flushed.
Was it a shift in attention that caused the change in demeanor? Or... Hmph, let's test it out.
"Talulah, I've heard everything that's happened from Frostnova. You've really had a hard time."
"It's nothing, I'm fine."
Hearing that Gensou was talking about serious matters, Talulah quickly straightened her expression and replied earnestly:
"As the saying goes, good things come to those who wait, and I believe in the future of the Reunion Movement."
“I’m not talking about the Reunion Movement, I’m talking about you.”
Talulah longed for a future where the infected and non-infected could coexist peacefully. However, the two massacres that occurred in the village demonstrated to her the irreconcilable conflict between the infected and non-infected. Coupled with internal strife, it's no wonder Frostnova was worried that Talulah would have a mental breakdown. Therefore, Genji didn't follow Talulah's lead and instead directly pointed the core of the problem at her:
"If you're tired, take a break. It'll be a good opportunity to organize your thoughts and see if there's anything you can do to fix it."
"...Okay, thank you."
Hearing Genji's concern, Talulah smiled and nodded, but the gloom in her heart made her smile look so forced. At this moment, Genji sensed that the dragon girl in front of him was undergoing strange changes, like a rabbit being entangled by a snake and being swallowed little by little into the snake's belly. It was that 'venomous snake' aura that made Genji's heart flutter.
I always feel that one day this feeling of being moved will become literal 'being moved'.
