"You like my body, right? Then you can use it now, I promise I'll do whatever you say. Oh...right, I also have Oripathy. Aren't you a doctor? Why don't you just amputate my limbs? That way I won't hurt you..."
Bai Yue lowered her eyes, the shadows cast by her eyelashes obscuring her pink eyes and making them lose all their luster.
He looked at Vishdale, gripped her hand tightly, and felt a sense of panic. This was... it was like he had taken some kind of drug. Could a single dream really turn someone like this?
Theresa's ethereal figure stood beside him, sighing:
"See? Little one, your power is far more dangerous than swords. The former can at most take a life, but you can plunder the dignity of others. Do you really want this?"
Bai Yue tilted her head and instinctively used telepathy to mutter, "It's all your fault. If she's alive, she's alive. Why did you have to lie to her?"
Theresa crouched down, reached her hand through Vishdel's face, and whispered, "Can I really be considered alive like this? Do you really want me to show myself to comfort her?"
Hope... no way. Bai Yue pouted: "Let's not. If you show up in front of her now, she'll go crazy, if not stupid. We need to treat her psychological trauma first."
Theresa looked at Vishdel with pity: "Then I'll leave it to you, little one."
"Yes, yes, Grandma Theresa."
Bai Yue retorted, then snapped back to reality, half-kneeling on the ground, cupping her face in her hands, and looking directly into her eyes: "Calm down, don't let your impulses get the better of you. Whatever you saw, it was just a dream."
"It was just a dream."
“A dream?” Vishdel’s voice choked with sobs. “No, it’s not a dream. I can feel it. It’s Her Highness. Her hands are so warm, her voice is so clear, and she even gave me a name.”
"How could this be a dream? Ah, tell me, how could this be a dream!"
Hysterical screams, eyes streaming with tears.
Bai Yue gently wiped away her tears, pulled her into her arms, and whispered, "I know, I was there too. This really happened."
"But...a dream is just a dream. When you wake up, she's gone. Even if I let you enter the dream again, you won't see the same Theresa as before. Is that alright?"
That means that every time I enter a dream, a prince will die in the dream?
Upon realizing this possibility, Vishdel's breath caught in his throat, and tears streamed down his face uncontrollably.
Tears soaked Bai Yue's chest.
Bai Yue patted her back gently, her face showing no shame at lying.
As for the reason... he glanced at Theresa, who was also squatting next to him. Heh, the real one is here now, so from now on, his dreams will only be about the imposter.
After an unknown amount of time, Vishdale's crying stopped. She lifted her head from Bai Yue's embrace and said, trembling, "Is there really no other way?"
Bai Yue said softly, "If you can accept that each time you meet a different Theresa, then..."
“No!” Vishdel refused outright.
"Then there's nothing I can do." Bai Yue shook her head.
Does that mean I'll never see His Highness again?
The mere thought of this almost broke Vishdale's spirit. If it weren't for this possibility, it wouldn't have mattered, but now... how could someone who has tasted the light want to return to darkness?
Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness! ...
Vishdale almost lost her senses. Looking at Bai Yue's pink eyes, which were almost identical to Theresa's (even more beautiful!), and smelling the sweet fragrance in the air, she couldn't help but hallucinate.
Princess Theresa...
No, it's not.
Vishdel looked at the strikingly beautiful face before him, his eyes darkening, but his gaze never left the pink eyes. Alas, it's a pity he's not His Highness.
But then she thought, oh right, he's not His Highness, and... haven't I paid him yet?
Seeing her gaze gradually hardening, Bai Yue asked in confusion, "Why are you looking at me like that? Are you about to cry again? Sure, you can cry today."
Facing his outstretched arms, Vishdel leaned forward and pressed his soft lips directly against his target.
Bai Yue was caught off guard and felt that the kiss was very clumsy, yet incredibly tender. It was as if she was afraid of melting herself in his mouth, and her movements were as light as a feather.
The air seemed to freeze; their kiss was completely silent.
Theresa watched quietly.
She was somewhat saddened, saddened that Vishdel would try to fill the void in her heart in this way, like a drowning person unconsciously grasping at a straw. And this relationship...
It's as if they've placed themselves in an infinitely humble position.
It seems this little one will listen to whatever she's told now. Whether this is a cure or a poison depends on the little one's conscience.
.........
Vishdel went to sleep.
Bai Yue sat on the edge of the bed, quietly watched her for a while, then tucked the blanket in, tiptoed, and almost silently got up and walked out the door.
clatter...
The door closed so quietly it was barely audible.
Bai Yue leaned against the wall, lightly touched her lips with her fingertip, and complained to Theresa, who was floating beside her, "If I had known it would be this troublesome, I wouldn't have used this ability on her."
Theresa sighed, "Judging from her state, it's too late for you to say this, so... never mind, I won't say anything more. It's good that she can recognize her mistake; just be more careful when using this ability in the future."
After saying that, she looked curiously down the corridor, floated to a corner, and exclaimed in surprise, "These are the marks I made before. This is Rhodes Island, right?"
"Yes, that's right." Bai Yue walked over and glanced at the mark she had made. It was a small rabbit head, which seemed quite childlike.
Bai Yue laughed out loud: "Hehe, the famous Demon King actually used to draw this kind of thing?"
Theresa showed no embarrassment whatsoever, smiling gently, "This is one I taught Amiya to draw in the past, it's quite cute, isn't it? Um... by the way, how is she now? Is she healthy? Have you heard any bad rumors?"
Bai Yue shrugged: "She's okay, but she might not be okay soon."
"What do you mean?" Theresa asked, somewhat puzzled.
Bai Yue said directly, "The two mobile cities are about to collide, and Rhodes Island happens to hold the key to stop one of the cities. What do you think that cute little bunny will choose?"
"...Hehe, I think I know."
"By the way, little one, how many rings does Amiya still have on her wrist?"
"Ten."
"Never used it before...?"
"Little one, take me for a walk."
"Of course... Frostnova, I'm here!"
Chapter 83 What Does It Have to Do With You?
Nighttime, the lower levels of Rhode Island.
Following the location indicated by the information, Bai Yue turned a corner and was immediately pounced on by a dark figure coming straight at her.
Froststar frowned, the biting cold gathered at her fingertips almost shooting out.
But upon seeing the newcomer's long blue hair, she silently lowered her fingers, extinguished the magical fluctuations, and quietly walked to the side, treating herself as if she were invisible.
Bai Yue leaned back slightly to steady herself, and smelling the cool fragrance on her body, she realized that the person who came was none other than her own Dragon Girl.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
Chen Huijie said sullenly, "I want to leave Longmen."
"Eh?"
Bai Yue was a little confused, but she still gently patted Chen Huijie's back and asked softly, "So sudden, what happened?"
Chen Huijie said in a slightly weak voice, "No, it's nothing, it's just that I suddenly feel... Longmen is no longer the place I should be."
Bai Yue pondered for a moment, then frowned and said, "Is it your...identity that has been exposed?"
Chen Huijie shook her head: "No, I just..."
*Mobile ringtone*
The sudden noise interrupted her.
Bai Yue reached into her pocket and pulled out her phone. Looking at the "Little Tiger" icon on the caller ID, she raised an eyebrow: "Beatlex."
"Don't answer!" Chen Huijie looked up and reached out to snatch his phone.
Bai Yue remained motionless, letting her hand hold her phone, and said softly, "Chen Chen, don't I even have the right to know the truth? Or do you think I would abandon you after knowing the truth?"
"Waaah~" Chen Huijie let out a mournful cry, pulled her hand back, and buried her head in his chest again.
Bai Yue pressed the answer button.
Swire's urgent voice immediately came through the phone: "Hello, hello, can you hear me?"
"I'm here, Beatrice. What's up so late?"
Swire immediately cried out, "Where are you now? Is Chen with you? Stop her! Don't let her leave Dragon Gate! That idiot, she's going to her death!"
"Oh, that's it..."
Bai Yue lowered her voice considerably, lowered her head, and with a gloomy look in her eyes, reached out and touched the back of Chen Huijie's head.
Chen Huijie's body trembled.
"What do you mean by 'this' and 'that'? Don't you understand the seriousness of the situation? If we let Chen walk out of the Dragon Gate today, she'll never come back, do you know that?!"
Swire on the other end of the phone was so anxious he was jumping up and down.
Bai Yue continued to gently stroke Chen Huijie's head and back, and calmly smiled, "Isn't that perfect? Perfect, we can move into that villa in Century Garden and let her cry outside."
"Huh?" Swire paused, her clever little brain working quickly. Hey, that's right, thinking about it that way, it doesn't seem so bad... Pshaw, no way!
Pushing the distractions from her mind, she said earnestly:
"Bai Yue, listen up. Although I have some disagreements with that Pu Gailong on this matter, this time is different. She's going to die! I don't want to fight with a dead man... Anyway, no matter what, you have to persuade her to come back, or I'll ignore you for the rest of my life... for a whole year!"
Beep.
The phone hangs up.
Bai Yue shoved her phone back into her pocket, pushed Chen Huijie out of her arms, and said coldly, "Chen Chen, explain yourself. I don't think Beatrice would make baseless accusations, would they?"
"Um...this...that..."
Chen Huijie panicked and became flustered, no longer displaying the stern expression she had when she pointed the Chixiao sword at Wei Yanwu. At this moment, she was extremely guilty.
Bai Yue didn't urge her, and just quietly watched her.
In an environment devoid of any noise except for the rumble of machinery, Chen Huijie gradually calmed down, placed her hand on her chest, and said, "I am infected."
Froststar's ears twitched, thinking she had misheard, but Bai Yue's answer surprised her even more.
He said, "I know."
Froststar's eyes held a complex expression. So this indiscriminate eating habit didn't start with her...
"Why does Lungmen reject infected people, and even want to exterminate them?"
"I..."
As he hesitated, Bai Yue heard Lin Yuxia's voice echo in his ears, "...Remember, don't linger in the slums..." He inhaled, exhaled, and nodded, "I know."
?
Chen Huijie was immediately puzzled. What the heck? How did you know?
Bai Yue crossed her arms, tapped her arm with her fingertips, pondered for a moment, and then said, "It's those guys in black raincoats, isn't it? I saw them, and I could feel it. They were covered in the blood of hundreds of people."
Chen Huijie clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, saying, "They are Wei Yanwu's private soldiers."
"Oh, I see." Bai Yue pretended to realize something.
"Now you understand, right? The highest-ranking official in Lungmen is so hostile to the infected. I... I can no longer survive in this environment."
Chen Huijie clutched the clothes at her chest, as if she were gasping for breath in the deep sea.
Bai Yue stepped forward, gently pried open her fingers, kneaded her reddened fingertips, and then whispered, "Chen Chen, you're lying to me, aren't you? This reason alone isn't enough to make you leave Lungmen. Let me guess, hmm... is it Talulah?"
“...Hmm,” Chen Huijie nodded bitterly.
"What happened to her?" Bai Yue asked, already knowing the answer.
Chen Huijie said in a low voice, "She is controlling the core city of Chernobog and charging towards Lungmen. If she succeeds, it will inevitably trigger a war between the Abnormal Yan Kingdom and Ursus. At that time... there will be widespread devastation and suffering..."
“She’s my sister, and I have a responsibility to stop her. Even if… phew~, if that’s the case, then just forget about me. Swire is a good person, she can tolerate you, and she would be a good wife.”
