Teresa won't starve

Unexpectedly, Teresa blew up all of a sudden. She stood up and yelled out of control.

"I'm not your toy!!!"

"!!!"

At that moment, Karen seemed to see another little girl, completely overlapping with Teresa at this time, and shouted to herself through Teresa's mouth.

Although the child never said so, if it wasn’t so, why would she run away from herself?

Yes!

For a long time, although he didn't say it clearly, the child was like a living doll; he was always by Karen's side, and even Karen would take it for granted that the child should stay by her side.

That's just...so selfish! ! ! ! !

296 "That Man"

"No, of course you...of course you are not, you have your own freedom."

This is not only for Teresa, but also for the child; even if the child is not here, he cannot hear it.

It was she who had been holding back that child's freedom all along, she had become the canary's cage; without her, that child might have started... no, it's too late to say anything now.

In order to prevent that child from going astray and stepping into the living hell of losing herself; to let that child leave this world peacefully as a 'person' while still maintaining her self, this is the only thing she can do as a sister thing.

Of course, after that, she will return all the love and life that originated from that child to that child.

Maybe Karen understands that she can't make up for that incomplete love no matter what, and even continues to hurt the child who lacks love, which makes her almost instinctively want to pour all the remaining love on the girl who looks almost the same. Theresa's body.

At least it would make Karen feel better.

— but self-deception.

Knowing it is one thing, doing it is another.

Karen stepped forward and hugged Teresa, pressed her to her chest, feeling the slight struggle in her arms: "Hey, don't be angry, I was wrong, I was wrong, please forgive me. "

Teresa was quiet when she heard it, but she broke free immediately, with lingering anger on her face: "Don't do this kind of thing without authorization!! Did you treat me as someone else??"

"How come? You are you, and no one can replace you!"

The same was said to the child—even if the child couldn't hear it.

"Really?"

"Really, really." Karen raised her hand helplessly, and said with a solemn face: "I, Karen Kaslana, swear to God, everything I say is true. If there is even half a lie, let me—"

No more text?

After waiting for a while without waiting for the rest, Teresa urged: "What's next? Why don't you say it?"

"Let me think about it first." Kallen thought for a while, and finally found a person whose punishment was not so severe, so she thumped her right hand with her left hand: "Just let me bark like a dog! That's right! That's it!"

"...Cut, there is no sincerity at all."

"I was serious!!"

"..." x2

Neither of them spoke, just looked at each other silently.

It wasn't until a while later that Teresa broke the silence first: "I didn't expect anything from you, that's all."

Seeing Teresa sitting on the chair again, Karen followed her back to her original position.

......

"Hey, that—"

"Ok?"

"do you want--"

"???"

Teresa tilted her head and looked at Karen.

No matter what she said in half, she didn't understand what she wanted to express.

In fact, even Kallen didn't know whether to say it, after all, it was quite difficult to talk about it.

"Listen to my story?"

"Listen to a story?" Teresa thought, since she has nothing to do anyway, just listen to what she will say: "Okay, tell me."

"Then I'll start—where should I start?"

......

Once upon a time, there lived a girl named Kallen Kaslana.

......

"No, the order is wrong."

......

Once upon a time, there was a man named Otto Apocalypse. He had the multiple auras of the Immortal Bishop, the Ancient Bishop, the Catholic Bishop, etc. He was so dazzling and looked up to by countless people.

He has supreme power, dominating the life and death of countless people.

But he never felt happy about it.

Because it was never what he wanted—

Bishop Otto had a sweetheart, a beautiful woman who only existed in legends.In the legend of the Church of Destiny, 500 years ago there was a Valkyrie who was strong enough to stand against an army.

Its name: Karen Kaslana.

But it is a pity that the name "Valkyrie" is just a mortal body, and even ordinary people have the power to judge her, let alone the mighty power of time.

Although Karen Kaslana was not limited by lifespan in the end, but simply died of an 'accident'.

And with the death of the Valkyrie, Bishop Otto's heart also died.

......

"Eh? It's also called 'Karen'!"

Although she knew it was her, Teresa couldn't say that.

"Ahem, this is just a story! Do you understand the story? Of course it has to be a bit of fiction, otherwise how can it be called a story? If it is completely true, it is called a documentary!"

Even if this is the real part of the remaining memory, it still made her blush to ask Karen to tell it herself... especially after being laughed at.

......

The passage of 500 years did not make Bishop Otto forget the Valkyrie, but was driven even more crazy by this love.

In order to bring that Valkyrie back to life and return to his side, he left behind the last reserve called 'being a human being', and began to embark on a living experiment that could be nailed to the rack of shame by countless people.

The test subject is not only others, but also himself.

It is also because of this that Bishop Otto was able to live 500 years as a 'human', which is impossible for a 'human'.

No, maybe at this time, he can no longer be called a 'person'.

297 "Bullet"

But because of this, Bishop Otto has more time to do those dangerous, even anti-human experiments.

After a long period of suffering and loneliness, Bishop Otto finally discovered the problem.

To revive a person, one must first find her lost soul.

If you simply resurrect a corpse, you will end up with a piece of gasping flesh.Even if she develops self-awareness and retains the memory of this body, it is just a kind of muscle memory.

Is this newly born personality still the same person as before?

Maybe, maybe not.

......

"Although that man is very annoying, even hateful. But he is also very pitiful. For a woman who does not exist, he is willing to give up everything and even be scolded by others. Don't you think it is sad?"

But Kallen doesn't hate him, because if it weren't for him, there would be no Kallen now.

How can a man hate the one who gave him life?

......

Of course, the premise of all this is to let that piece of meat come alive first.

It's just that this is easy to say, but very difficult to do.

Although the body of the Valkyrie was well preserved, the body's functions had already completely stopped. To revive the body was even a thousand times more difficult than replacing all the dead internal organs.

But if you replace them all...it's nothing more than a humanoid 'Ship of Theseus'.

What Bishop Otto wanted was not the kind of resurrected person who didn't even know if he was the original Valkyrie.

Instead of that, it would be better to create another Valkyrie.

then.

Bishop Otto used the blood and somatic cells of the Valkyrie to create a large number of replicas.And in the process, various accidents occurred, and the experiment encountered difficulties that could not be overcome more than once.

Even if you get around by luck and start again from another angle, that's just the beginning of the next wrong end.

......

"And just like that, the man repeated the experiment until, until—"

......

Until there is an individual who finally no longer dissolves, finally does not die, and is born with self-awareness.

It's just a pity that Karen couldn't remember the specific number of the individual, maybe there was some kind of defect hidden in the body, and the body of this individual couldn't continue to grow when he was 12 years old.

Naturally, it is impossible to inherit more, which is derived from part of the memory in the cells.

This made Bishop Otto feel disappointed, even desperate, and it became the beginning of tragedy.

......

"I named that child 'Theresa'."

......

After having the name Theresa, that girl also began to show that extraordinary talent.

Although it has the weaknesses of being afraid of the sun and fond of bloodsucking, it also has extremely obvious advantages.

For example--

By absorbing the blood of corpses, people after death can be resurrected briefly.

then.

Bishop Otto asked the girl to drink the blood of the Valkyrie every few days, so that the Valkyrie could return to this world as a resurrected person.

Because of this, the girl became a canary raised by Bishop Otto, a doll accompanying the Valkyrie, and the meaning of her own existence...is not important.

She is just a key prop that is needed, and her own thoughts are meaningless.

As a blank personality, a girl who doesn't understand anything would think about these things at all.

However, perhaps it was because she had been with the Valkyrie for a long time, and after listening to too many stories told by the Valkyrie, she began to yearn for the outside world.

But because of Bishop Otto's restrictions, she was not even allowed to choose to leave the coffin called 'home', so why would she want to see what the outside world looks like?

Perhaps it was because the Valkyrie felt sorry for her and didn't want her to spend her life in regret.So he used the privilege given to him by Bishop Otto to take the girl out of the cage without authorization.

Live a life free and unfettered - as it should be.

......

"After leaving that place, she began to be unable to control the desire to suck blood more and more. She lost her mind more than when she was awake. Many times when she came back to her senses, she found that there was a body lying under her feet. Corpse drained of blood."

Karen had seen such a scene countless times, but she never stopped it.It's not that she can't do it, but she believes in her sister, and finally she can restrain her desire (betting) and control herself.

It's a pity that the desire (betting) was too strong, so strong that the girl even attacked her sister who stood in front of her.When she woke up, she realized that she had hurt the most important person to her.

For the resistance and disgust from herself, she could not forgive herself for hurting her dear ones.
