mygo, but Cthulhu

"They weren't acting on impulse. They were colluding with Mizono Watari and were planning to attack the company. If it weren't for Misaki-senpai leading us to act quickly, the company's losses would be unimaginable."

Youjia interrupted her, and Youya couldn't help but look confused. She trembled and didn't know what to say. Seeing her pitiful appearance, Youjia immediately softened her heart. She sighed, leaned over and hugged her comfortingly.

"Okay, Youya, if you really don't want to do this, we understand. You should go and rest for a while. When this mission is over, we will take you back to the company and let you transfer to a civilian position. Senior Xin should agree..."

"Civilian job? But, if that happens, I can't stay with you and everyone else... No, no, Sister Youjia, please, I don't want to leave you. Don't transfer me away, I'll do anything!"

After hearing her words, Youya was stunned for a moment and then opened her eyes wide in panic. She hugged Youjia tightly, and the latter was silent for a moment and his voice became cold and hard.

"Yuya, if you must stay with us, then you must learn to kill. We are the sharp blades of Xin-senpai. If you can't become a soldier belonging to the company like us, then you will become our loophole... Do you understand?"

"I, I understand, Sister Youjia... But I still don't understand why we killed so many people. We all just wanted to make this world a better place..."

"Yes, they also want to make the world a better place in their own way, but their method is to overthrow the company and destroy the only order in this horrible reality... Youya, do you think they are right?"

Yu Gu Youjia met the girl's blank eyes seriously, grabbed her shoulders tightly, and at the same time gritted his teeth and raised his voice.

"After those damn lunatics killed our classmates, we huddled in the bloody and ruined campus, left with only despair and collapse... But at that time, it was Senior Xin who gave us hope. She allowed us to have food and water, and she also allowed us to have

If it weren't for her, we would have died long ago."

"She saved over a hundred thousand survivors, including us. We're all still alive because of her, and yet those who haven't experienced hell are arrogantly claiming the company is the culprit... If Senior Xin hadn't provided them with food in a timely manner, they would have all starved to death. How dare they speak so brazenly?"

Her anger grew as she continued to speak, but when she saw Youya's somewhat timid look, she instantly regained consciousness and quickly slowed down her voice.

"So, Youya, do you understand? These guys only want to destroy, but they can't come up with a better solution than the company's order. If we let them do whatever they want, everything we have will collapse... Can you allow that to happen?"

"I...I can't. I want to protect you and everyone else. I don't want anything to happen to you."

Youya shook her head subconsciously, and Yuya Youjia also smiled gently and touched her head gently.

"Good boy, now that you understand all this, you should also understand the importance of killing these tens of thousands of dissidents, right? If we don't eliminate them, the chaos they cause will affect even more people. We must not be merciful. To show mercy to the enemy is to be cruel to ourselves."

"I...I understand, Sister Youjia, I will try my best to keep up with everyone."

After hesitating for a long time, Youya nodded silently, and Youjia couldn't help but sigh when he saw her painful expression, and hugged her gently.

"I'm sorry, Youya, I know you feel bad, but this is what we have to face, this is what we all have to face... In order to survive in this cruel world, we must learn to persevere."

"But don't worry. Until you grow up and can stand on your own, I will always protect you. I will teach you how to fight and how to shoot. Most importantly, I will make you accustomed to the feeling of killing until you are used to it."

"Until then, I'll be proud of you."

Chapter 349 Pain and Touch

"I'm fine now, soyorin, you really don't have to stay with me anymore."

Aine felt Su Shi's grip on her hand, which had become sticky, and spoke softly with helplessness. The flaxen-haired girl shook her head seriously, her eyes filled with gentle determination.

"No, Xiangzi has already said that as long as you rest well and don't continue to participate in the battle, the pollution rate will not be so fast. From now on, you must rest well and sleep at least ten hours a day. You must also relax. No matter what you want, you can tell me, and I will definitely agree to it."

"Eh? In that case, I want Soyorin's lap pillow, is that okay?"

Aiyin couldn't help but speak softly at this moment, half jokingly, and at the same time prepared words of apology, but to her surprise, Su Shi was stunned for a moment and did not frown as usual. Her face turned slightly red, then she pursed her lips and nodded slightly.

"If you want, Aine, I can do it."

"Eh?!"

Chihaya Aine couldn't help but open her eyes wide in disbelief. She jumped up from the bed in an instant, and was at a loss for a moment because of this answer that was completely beyond her imagination. Seeing her exaggerated reaction, Su Shi couldn't help but frown slightly, and her tone of helplessness was mixed with a little dissatisfaction.

"Why such a big reaction? In your eyes, is it impossible for me to agree to such a request?"

“Um, no, that’s because I really didn’t expect you to actually agree, Soyorin. After all, I know you’re always tough on the outside but soft on the inside. Normally, you would just hit me hard on the head and then say, “Aine, you’re really delusional…”

Aine was at a loss as to what to do and hurriedly explained. Seeing her like this, Su Shi couldn't help but smile. She looked at the pink-haired girl with a complicated expression, hesitated for a moment, and then sighed softly.

"Aine, you really do understand me well. I am usually like this... However, after going through so much together, I've gradually realized that the time we get to spend together is extremely precious. This world could be destroyed at any moment... For me, cherishing every minute is the most important thing."

“Besides, Aine, it’s my fault that you have to endure all this. If I had been able to save you then…”

"Don't say that, soyorin."

Aine interrupted her softly, shaking her head firmly and holding her hand tightly in an effort to comfort her.

"That's not your fault. I can only blame myself for being too weak, which is why I was almost eaten by that monster. I don't want you to blame yourself for this. If you say that again, I will really get angry."

“Aine…”

Su Shi couldn't help but hug her tightly with tears in his eyes, and the latter relaxed and quietly felt this precious tranquility and warmth. She was almost immersed in it, but the next moment a gradually spreading feeling of hunger spread from her stomach and intestines, and the fragrance of Su Shi's body became stronger, making her body stiffen.

"Aine, what's wrong with you?"

Su Shi did not miss this detail, and quickly let go of her and asked worriedly, while the pink-haired girl also pursed her lips. She hesitated for a moment, and finally tried to squeeze out a voice with trembling hands.

"I, I'm hungry..."

"I understand, Aine. Please wait for me for a moment. I'll go out and find food for you."

Su Shi nodded seriously and turned to leave, but the next moment her hand was held again. She turned around and met Aine's tired gaze.

"Soyorin, let me go out by myself. I don't want to trouble you."

"How can this be? You should have a good rest now, and I'm worried..."

"Please, Soyorin, I... I know you committed this sin for me, and I really don't want you to do this kind of thing for me again... Let me do it myself."

Aine looked at her pleadingly, and Su Shi couldn’t help but be stunned by that sad look. She pursed her lips hesitantly, and sighed after a moment.

"I have to at least follow you, otherwise I really won't be at ease..."

"Please, Soyorin, let me go out alone... I know that I look hideous when I eat. Even if you don't mind, I don't want you to remember only this beastly appearance. I'll be back soon, I promise."

Aine continued to plead painfully, and Su Shi couldn't help but sigh at this time. She placed a spell mark on Aine's body for positioning, stared at her reluctantly for a moment, and then slowly let go of her hand.

"Then you must come back within half an hour, otherwise I will never let you go out alone again."

"Okay, I'll be back on time... Thank you, soyorin."

Seeing that she agreed, Aine couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She hugged Su Shi gently, and before the latter could immerse herself in her warmth again, she took a step back and waved to her with a smile.

"Goodbye, soyorin."

"See you in half an hour. Remember, if you don't come back on time, Li Xi, Lenai and I will all come looking for you. Do you understand?"

Su Shi still whispered a little worriedly, and Aine nodded vigorously. She turned and left the house, and as she closed the door, the gentle smile on her face suddenly disappeared, and she sighed heavily with fatigue.

…She actually doesn’t want to eat humans

She still remembered the despair on Ueda Ayako's face, and felt sick every time she thought about it... However, her friends hoped that she could survive, even though her fate was already doomed.

Chihaya Aine covered her face, trying hard to suppress the urge to cry. She walked forward step by step, ready to find the nearest gang base and find a villain who she would not feel guilty about eating... Although she hated the smell of smoke and stench, she had no choice now.

"boom!"

When she approached the front of the building, a figure suddenly crashed through the wall and fell heavily to the ground. Aine was stunned for a moment before she saw the blood-stained and crazy face of Himari. At the same time, Mizukuri with a cold expression slowly walked out. When she saw Aine, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and her face was distorted with new anger.

"Chihaya Aine...you ate Ako, right?"

"I……"

"Hahahaha! I didn't expect that. I was just wondering where to find you, but you came to me on your own initiative. What a pleasant surprise."

At this time, Uehara Himari also laughed and roared softly. She crawled up from the ground tremblingly, and after feeling the puzzled look from Mitakeran, she realized her omission. She tore the corner of her mouth and used blood to cover up the flaw in her expression.

"I've always been curious, Chihaya Aine, what's so special about the body of a descendant of Dagon? Would you let me taste your heart?"

"Uehara Himari, Mizukari, I know you want to kill me out of madness and hatred. I can understand your thoughts. After all, I ate your friend's sister."

Chihaya Aine met their murderous gazes and responded softly with a sigh.

"I won't argue, and your desire for revenge is perfectly reasonable... But I'm only out here looking for villains I can eat without any problem, and if I'm attacked, Soyorin and Xiangzi will be here right away... Do you think you two can defeat all of us?"

As she spoke like this, Chihaya Aine couldn't help but feel a strong sense of self-mockery and irony. She knew that she was despicable now... But she had to live, even if she was gradually going crazy. Her life did not belong to her own. Her friends cared about her very much... For them, she must not die easily.

"You damn bastard..."

Hearing her threat, Mizukami couldn't help but grit her teeth. She could hardly control her anger. She could only remind herself again and again of the powerful strength of Mygo and Mujica, and tried her best to suppress her unwilling murderous intent.

"Hahahahaha! Chihaya Aine, your threats may indeed work on Ran, but what about me? Do you think I care about your strength? Death is an unattainable beauty to me."

At this moment, Uehara Himari also laughed wildly and spoke through gritted teeth, while Aine also calmly shook her head slightly.

"Yes, you won't be killed, but Lixi and Xiangzi can banish you to another dimension. You won't die, but you'll never be able to return here. You'll be stuck floating in the cold and silence... I think even for a madman like you, this would be a terrifying torture, right?"

"..."

Uehara Himari suddenly fell silent. She stared at Aine with trembling eyes, and the latter was also alert and ready to face her attack at any time. After a moment, Himari gritted her teeth and inserted the blade into her head. She dug a hole and poured out the brain matter and blood. Only then did she control her impulse, gave Aine a last twisted smile, and then turned around and walked away slowly.

"Remember, Chihaya Aine, we will definitely avenge Ako... You will definitely pay the price you deserve."

As Aine breathed a sigh of relief, Mizukuri spoke in a cold and resolute voice. She stared at Aine for a moment with murderous intent before teleporting away unwillingly, causing the pink-haired girl to silently shake her head.

"I've really attracted enough hatred..."

"Is this how human emotions work? As long as it involves hatred, even if I have to give it up temporarily due to temporary obstacles, I will still keep it firmly in my heart... It's a pity that Xiangzi didn't agree with my plan at the time."

At this moment, a voice that was familiar to Aine suddenly sounded behind her. She was stunned for a moment and quickly turned around. The data stream also slowly flowed out through the network interface, gradually condensing into a purple-haired mechanical girl. She looked at Aine calmly for a moment, and then suddenly asked softly.

"Aine, why didn't you just take action? If you had clashed with them, Shoko and the others would have arrived quickly. Then we could have killed Mitakeran and exiled Uehara Himari... That would have eliminated two threats, which would have been very helpful to us."

"Nyanmu-kun... No, Miss Yutenji, I heard that you suggested to Xiangzi before that you should just kill all the girls in the band except us, right?"

Aiyin asked the question in a complicated tone, and Ruomai nodded gently without hesitation, her voice smooth and even.

"Yes, that was the best solution at the time. I still don't understand why she refused, just like I don't understand why you didn't take the initiative just now."

"...Perhaps what you said makes sense, but I've already eaten their friend's sister, and my brutality has caused unbearable pain to everyone except Scarlet Mary...I really don't want to actively kill anyone else."

After a moment's silence, Aiyin squeezed out a sound bit by bit with pain, and Ruomai tilted his head slightly with an expressionless face, then spoke calmly and softly.

"You should know that your guilt means nothing to them, right? Even if you don't take action now, they will find our weaknesses and attack us when we are at our weakest. You will still have to fight them then. What difference does it make if it's sooner or later?"

"..."

Aine didn't say anything, but clenched her fists and lowered her head. Ruomai noticed the tears sliding down her face, frowned slightly, walked step by step to Aine, and stared at her seriously.

"Chihaya Aine, answer me now, do you love your friend?"

"Of course I love them, they are all I have."

Aine answered without hesitation, and Wakamai nodded slightly at this point, her voice taking on a serious tone.

"So, you're also willing to kill innocent people for them, and do anything despicable and cruel, right?"

"Correct."

"So, why don't you kill those two threats?"

Ruomai spoke softly, and Aine couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. After she reacted, the pain and guilt on her face became heavier. After the silence lasted for a long time, she could only squeeze out a trembling voice.

"I……"

"You should know that they hate not only you, but also your friends. Aftergrow and Roselia hate all of us. The person they want to kill the most is you, followed by Nagasaki Suyo, and your other friends."

Yutenji Wakamugi spoke softly, and Aine couldn't help but cover her head with her hands in tears. Ako's desperate and painful face flashed before her eyes again, as well as her eyes full of reluctance when looking at Shirogane Rinko. She felt her head buzzing again, and her vision was blurred by guilt and panic.

She knelt powerlessly on the ground, and the little conscience that was left was like a sharp blade tearing through her heart, torn together with the other side of her soul that agreed with Ruomai's statement.

"Stop talking, please..."

"Why? There is no point in avoiding this question.

Righteousness, Aine, since you are willing to risk everything for your friends, then you should eliminate factors that may threaten them. Isn't this your love for them? Or is it that your love for them cannot compare to your own pain..."

"shut up!"

Just when Aiyin was about to collapse, Su Shi's furious voice suddenly rang out. She opened her eyes wide and turned her head subconsciously, seeing Su Shi with a distorted face using magic to forcefully cut Ruomai's neck. The latter's head hit the ground, and as short-circuit sparks flashed from the broken neck, her expression gradually froze in confusion.

"Why are you attacking me? I can't understand..."

"Tear,"

The spatial ripples condensed by Li Xi turned her head into metal fragments on the ground. She kicked her headless body hard in annoyance, and then reached out her hand to Aiyin with concern.

"Are you okay, Aine?"

"Rikki, soyorin..."

Aiyin sobbed and wiped away her tears, trembling as she hugged their bodies tightly. She apologized desperately with a tearful voice, her heart filled with pain of guilt.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Ruomai is right. I should have killed Meizhulan and the others for you. I should have done that just now. I'm sorry..."

"No, you don't have to apologize, Aine. We only wanted to protect you. We never wanted you to suffer. This guy is responsible for everything. You don't need to blame yourself."

Li Xi patted her back comfortingly, and at the same time used his spatial ability to crush Ruomai's headless body into pieces. Data streams slowly flowed out of it, and she sneered at it, raised her hand and pointed at the network interface.

"Go back and cry to Xiangzi, you damn AI. We'll go find Xiangzi when we get back, but don't bother us now, or I'll kill you."
