I, Viego, conquer Terra!

Viego and W both focused their attention on the fragment because of this sudden change.

I injected the power of the Curse of Ruin into it...so now, what will happen to this fragment?

The next moment, his answer was answered.

A female figure with a gentle face appeared in front of him and W.

——Isold.

It's really her.

A subconscious feeling of disgust welled up in Viego's heart.

But at the same time, the moment Isolde appeared, the obsessions that had accumulated over thousands of years in his mind began to surge up.

The violent conflict made Viego feel dizzy.

He had to hold on to W's shoulders to steady himself.

W noticed Viego's change, supported him, glanced at him, and was about to speak when the gentle figure in front of her spoke before her.

"Viagra..." Isolde's phantom lowered his eyes, with a hint of sadness on his gentle face. "Why are you so obsessed..."

She said: "Our tragedy should have ended with me..."

She didn't even want to look up at Viego, so naturally she didn't notice anything unusual about him at the moment.

Viego gritted his teeth and widened his eyes.

Fuck you...!

It was you who cried for the Ruined King to save you before you died, and that's why he did this. And now you're asking me why he's so obsessed?!

Viego's body shouldn't have had any physiological reaction.

But at this moment, he truly felt an extreme feeling of nausea, almost to the point of vomiting.

disgust.

Viego was extremely certain.

Even though the obsessions in his mind were surging, fighting against his reason, trying to erode his mind and ideas, making those once beautiful images of the Ruined King and Isolder constantly reappear in his mind.

The disgust in his heart did not diminish in the slightest.

W was very observant. From her angle, she could just see Viego's slightly lowered face, and could also see clearly that something was wrong with him.

You can see the disgust in Viego's eyes more clearly.

"Who is this?" she whispered in Viego's ear.

This woman obviously knows Viego.

But it was the first time W saw Viego show such strong emotions.

——It’s still “disgust”, a strong and deep negative emotion.

Although Viego would usually bicker with her, quarrel with her, make harmless jokes, and talk dirty, W could actually always feel that Viego had an inexplicable sense of alienation from the world and everyone except himself.

It was like coming to a completely unfamiliar world where he knew no one and understood nothing, so he had to use a cynical attitude to cover up the alienation and sense of crisis in his heart that made him unable to fit in here.

His emotions seemed to be always indifferent, and he rarely expressed any particularly strong emotions, whether it was joy, anger or hatred.

W has always been curious about Viego, but she has never tested it or expressed it.

Now, at this moment, W felt that he might have solved part of the mystery surrounding the man next to him.

"Viego, I don't have much time left..." Isolde said sadly, and finally raised his head and noticed the white-haired Sarkaz woman who was supporting Viego. "...Who is this?"

There shouldn't be any living people around Viego.

He doesn't care about the lives of those people, and he doesn't want anyone other than himself to get close to him...right.

But now, how could it be...?

Who is this woman?

Doubts arose in Isolde's mind.

There was even something she herself hadn't noticed, like she felt that something that belonged to her was being taken away...

Taste?

Viego was now busy dealing with the chaotic thoughts and memories in his mind. He did not have the energy to explain too much to W, so he could only grit his teeth and said briefly:

"...ex-wife."

While Viego wasn't the Ruined King, he did inherit his body.

Using this word is the simplest and most convenient way for W to understand what he means.

After all, if one really wanted to explain the relationship between the Ruined King, Viego, and Isolder, it would probably take at least half an hour.

This is without considering whether the Terrans, who have no concept of "time travel", "parallel time and space", or "other worlds", can understand it. Otherwise, it would probably take several hours to explain these concepts before telling the story.

Ex-wife? After hearing Viego's words, W understood.

Although I don’t know why Viego’s ex-wife suddenly ran out from the fragment, and kept chattering about how her obsession led to a tragic ending.

But W, who could barely be considered an "outsider", could still see clearly the implicit blame in the woman's words and the deep disgust in Viego's eyes.

W stared at the warm-hearted woman with a sad face in front of him, and suddenly felt that she looked familiar.

Oh yes.

The woman's face looked as if she had compassion for the world.

Isn’t it just like the smile on your face?

That kind of hypocritical feeling, like wearing a mask.

The kind of disguise that makes it seem like you could just reach out and peel off her entire face.

W is very familiar with this.

Maybe even this woman herself didn't realize this?

After all, people are always used to deceiving themselves.

W thought of Theresa again.

That Princess of Kazdel.

She is also gentle, with a gentle and calm temperament.

Before W met her, he also felt that she was a bit hypocritical.

But yesterday, she ran out of the ward and unexpectedly saw Theresa, only to discover that the noble princess was actually holding a stupid and thick big wrench and repairing the stuck mechanical door herself?

Then they chatted for a while.

W was able to confirm that the real Theresa was not the same hypocritical person he had imagined.

She was a truly warm person, and truly worthy of the title of Her Royal Highness the Princess of all the Sarkaz.

All the Sarkaz who have seen Theresa can confirm this.

That kind of concern for everyone that comes from the heart is never false.

But the Isolde before him was different.

It's a crude, self-deceptive disguise.

W could tell it at a glance, because when she looked at Isolde, it was as if she was seeing herself smiling in the mirror.

You keep saying that our tragedy should end together...as if you love each other so much that you should die together.

As a result, even though Viego showed obvious signs of being abnormal, this woman didn't notice at all and didn't care at all?

Her first question was even, who am I?

W laughed.

She knew what to do.

Anyway...she doesn't care about this.

"Hey, Viego."

"...What?" Viego responded through gritted teeth.

W reached out and gently pinched his chin with his index finger and thumb.

Then she pulled his face closer to her.

Viego reacted, and his green eyes widened slightly:

"Hey, you...uh...!"

The unfinished words were simply blocked.

The two pairs of gold and green eyes looked at each other.

The other person was so close that even his face was clearly reflected in his eyes.

Isolde stood aside, eyes wide open, looking at the two people kissing each other in front of him, an expression of disbelief on his face.



Chapter 38 The memories of the dead suddenly attacked me

W's method is very effective.

...is effective against both Viego and Isolde.

The sudden soft touch gave Viego a severe shock. He was stunned for a long time, and even the churning memories and obsessions in his mind calmed down without him knowing when.

When he came to his senses again, the fragment that carried a part of Isolde's sanity had already exhausted the power of the Curse of Ruin that Viego had injected into it, and lay dimly on the ground.

W distanced herself from Viego at the right time, gently brushed her lips with her fingers, stared at Viego and sneered, "It's just a kiss, why do you look so silly... Viego, you haven't even kissed anyone before, have you?"

"...Your skills aren't much better, W." Viego retorted tiredly, covering his forehead with his hands. There was still some horror on his face from being kissed by the cockroach girl. "So, why did you do this?"

...what wife is currently committing.

The minotaur was ecstatic.

——Although Viego does not consider Isolde to be his "wife".

"Do you need a reason? Just do it if you want to." W raised his eyebrows nonchalantly:

"If I have to give a reason, it's that I don't like that woman. Is that enough? Don't get me wrong, Viego, I don't really want to kiss you."

Viego sighed, sat down beside the extinguished campfire, and felt a dull pain in his head.

"So, what happened to you just now?" W sat next to him.

Viego said simply: "Headache."

Memories of the dead Ruined King suddenly attacked me.

Who wants to know how wonderful your relationship with Isolde was? Anyway, she is a bad woman now!!!

After that brief meeting just now, Viego became more certain.

I really hate Isolde.

Hate it to the point of disgust.

From his perspective, Isolde's behavior could hardly be described as pleasing.

Perhaps only the original ruined king could, driven by love and obsession, turn a blind eye to all the indifference, care and reproaches of that bad woman and continue to love her as always.

Too bad he's not the ruined king from before.

It was impossible to fall in love with Isolde again.

"Okay, so...you're okay now?" W asked.

"If I say I have something to do, can I get a lap pillow massage in return?" Viego raised his eyebrows.

"Go away, Viego." W snorted and stood up, making sure Viego was really okay. "I feel relieved to see you can still say such things. Let's go, it's time to go back."

Viego rubbed his temple and stood up.

After taking two steps, he turned back and picked up the dim fragment. "I almost forgot about this thing."
