Ye Yuehuan, Julie, and Nie De walked up the stairs step by step, their wet clothes dripping with water.
Victoria was the only one who didn't get wet.| The silk, lace, and stockings below were all covered in dust and became extremely dirty.
Holding Ye Yuehuan's hand, Victoria raised her head and looked at him with a doubtful expression."
"…There's something I've been concerned about since just now.”
"What is it?"
"Forget it."
"Is this fun?"
"How boring. I'm telling you, I'm merely pointing out the truth and putting the newly pieced Chaos language into words.”
After that, Victoria remained silent.
The four of them continued upstairs without saying a word.
Nie De, who was walking at the front, continued to toss tennis balls in the darkness. Just like that, Nie De's figure disappeared into the dim landing.
In the next moment, a faint thud was heard. It was as if…he heard a small wail.
Ye Yuehuan and Julie looked at each other.
"…Nie De?"
Julie asked, trembling.
There was no reply.
Ye Yuehuan continued to ask,"
"Did something happen?"
The stairs returned to silence.
Ye Yuehuan and Julie looked at each other.
Then, the two of them rushed up the stairs together. When they stepped onto the dark platform, they found something unexpected.
Over there…
Nie De fell to the ground, dead. Ye Yuehuan walked forward.
The corpse was facing down with its feet facing this way, and its right hand was pressed down.| Beneath his body. His left hand was facing this side, and his palm was pressed against his waist.
He lifted his left hand to check his pulse.
Nie De's pulse had stopped.
No, it couldn't be said to have stopped. It could only be said that with Night Moon's ordinary perception ability, she couldn't feel the tiny beats.
This golden retriever!
"He's dead…"
"…Illusion, illusion."
Victoria called out to Night Moon in a hoarse voice. She looked back and revealed a rare nervous expression. She lowered her head and looked over with a worried expression.
"What…?"
"Huan, come here for a moment."
"Oh."
Ye Yuehuan also knew that the golden retriever was not dead."
"Victoria, did you find anything?”
"…I'm so scared. Please, come to my side…Huan, please.”
Night Moon was stunned. Kneeling on the floor with one leg, he raised his head and stared at Victoria's face.
She looked at him with an irresistible expression. It was as if she was saying,"Hurry up and stand up." That line-I'm so scared, please come to me-didn't sound like Victoria at all. The awkward Victoria,
so cute
Ye Yuehuan stood up and finally returned to Victoria's side.
He looked at Julie, who was stiff all over, and she was using her hands to poke her mouth.| Bam! His eyes widened in disbelief.
"How, how…"
He muttered to himself softly.
"Exactly the same. It was exactly the same. This was exactly the same as back then…! What's going on?"
While Ye Yuehuan was paying attention to Julie, he whispered to Victoria,"
"Listen well, Huan."
Victoria's voice was filled with nervousness.
"After the three of us pass through the stairs, we will hide on the upper floor. There should be weapons on the ship. It would be best to look around.”
"Have you noticed? Victoria."
Victoria's expression stiffened, and then…she muttered enigmatic words,"
"Yes, three of us and one of them. However, two children and a woman were not confident that they could win against an adult man. Ah! It was a mistake to throw away the pistol just now…but it was too late for regrets now.”
"What are you talking about?" Julie asked softly. What's wrong?"
Victoria raised her head. His emerald green eyes were wide open, filled with unease.
His thin and bloodless lips moved as he said firmly,"
"You will be killed."
"It's okay, Victoria. You still have me.”Ye Yuehuan knelt on one knee to keep their height equal, then placed his hand on Victoria's head. Although he was touching her head, Victoria did not react at all. This did not make sense. Shouldn't loli be "meow ~"?
He pulled Julie, who was standing at the side in a daze, and slowly walked past the corpse and across the landing of the stairs.
Victoria whispered,
"…Run!"
Ye Yuehuan held Victoria and Julie's hands tightly.
A Victoria in the left hand and a Julie in the right hand... The legendary harem protagonist skill: In times of crisis, the girl's vigilance against the protagonist is reduced by 70%.
This floor was quite close to the top. It was covered with luxurious soft carpets and the walls were decorated with luxurious oil lamps. He rushed into the nearest room. It was a library prepared for first-class passengers. There was a bright crystal chandelier in the room and a row of luxurious bookshelves by the wall. He kept an eye out for traps and thoroughly searched the bookshelves, drawers, and under the carpet.
[Night Moon Magic] opened the system's small map (Note: I forgot about the previous part, this is a map that shows the area around me of 10 square meters.），He found a machete. Then he looked back at Julie, who was holding a large letter opener and taking deep breaths. Ye Yuehuan grabbed the extra sword and threw it over.
"Catch!"
"Ah…"
They caught the sword in a panic and looked at each other. Ye Yuehuan put his index finger to his lips to signal silence. Julie nodded.
Everything returned to silence.
Ye Yuehuan could feel his heart thumping, thumping…and his temples were aching.
It wasn't easy to kill someone for the first time, so after a few moments…
Nothing happened.
Ye Yuehuan and Julie looked at each other. Then, Ye Yuehuan turned to Victoria and was about to ask,"" You said, we…"
The door opened silently. Standing there was-
Nie De Basda, who should be dead.
Nie De held a huge axe in his right hand.
There was no expression on his face, and he looked like a completely different person from before. It felt like the temperature in the library had suddenly dropped.
He slowly turned his head to the left and right. He first saw Julie standing by the wall and staring at him. Then, he slowly walked toward Julie. Julie waved her sword to block Nie De, who was holding his axe high, while she turned to Ye Yuehuan and the others.
"What are you guys still doing? Run! Quickly go to the radio room and ask for help!"
Nie De slowly turned around when he heard the voice.
Then, he noticed Night Moon and Victoria behind him.
His eyes were like two holes on his face, dark and empty.
However, when he saw Victoria, it began to shine.
"Girl…it's 'Wild Rabbit'…!”
"Since it's a 'wild rabbit', we must kill it. Because I'm a Hound!"
He raised his axe and flew over.
Nie De rushed towards Victoria, but Ye Yuehuan pushed her away.| He fell to the ground and swung his knife at Nie De's head.
Although there was a huge difference in physique, because of the machete, the two of them met.
"Swish!"
" Clang!" Nie De blocked it, and he waved his hand as well. "Dang!"
Ye Yuehuan raised his machete and placed it across his chest.| However, how could the sub-healthy Ye Yuehuan withstand the strength of the golden retriever Nie De? Ye Yuehuan flew backward and crashed into the wall.
" Damn it, Summon the Book of Hypnosis."
"Player 9527, you don't have enough summoning coins.”A voice that made him feel despair rang in his ears.
" What…!?"
Looking at Nie De, who was walking step by step, Ye Yuehuan got up and planned to continue fighting. (Although it was a one-sided beating.)
"Dong!"
Victoria, who had gotten up at some point, found a baseball bat and hit the golden retriever Nie De until he could not get up again.
"You're really useless, Huan." He looked at Ye Yuehuan with undisguised disdain.
"I still have you." Ye Yuehuan, who had no moral integrity, did not care about that look. However, when did the Lord of Morality die? He remembered that when he first met Victoria, the Lord of Morality was still alive…
"Alright, let's leave quickly.”Julie picked up the axe and said.
The three of them left the room together and pushed the cupboard in the corridor together.| He went to the door and blocked it.
She rushed up the stairs and heard Nie De knocking on the door after he woke up.
He climbed up the stairs that were getting brighter and brighter.
Night Moon hugged Victoria's small body tightly and ran. Victoria stared at Ye Yuehuan's face as if she had seen something unbelievable.
"You should lose weight, Huan."
Shocking! (Hey, hey, young lady, hurry up and give me back the feeling that you were looking at me affectionately.)
Julie followed behind, holding the axe in both hands as she ran up the stairs. He looked at Victoria and said with a sad expression,"
"How do you know…that he's not dead…?”
Ye Yuehuan was about to say that this was not the time to say such things…but seeing Julie's pale and anxious face, he had no choice but to shut up.
Victoria frowned slightly.
Then, in a calm voice that could not be imagined in such an urgent situation, he said,"
"It's very simple. This is what the 'Fountain of Intelligence' that keeps gushing out tells me.”
"What?"
"Forget it, Victoria. Please explain it in words!”
"Oh…"
Victoria nodded reluctantly.
"It's very simple. Don't you think that lying down like that is very unnatural? Lying on the ground, right hand pressing down| Under his body, it was as if he did not want anyone to touch him. His left hand was the opposite, facing us. It was as if he was saying, Please feel the pulse here.”
"Now that you mention it…"
"If he accidentally triggered the trap and fell to the ground, would he be in this position? Shouldn't it be more natural to stretch both hands forward? You should have noticed that this is very suspicious.”
"But his pulse has stopped! There was no doubt about it. Huan also said it."
"Humph. Huan, tell me." Victoria puffed up her face when she noticed how Julie addressed Ye Yuehuan. Julie also realized who she was talking to, and her deathly pale face turned red. Then, in a low voice, he said to himself,
"At that time…her pulse…did stop.”
"…At that time?"
"No, no, nothing. Huan, tell me."
Victoria seemed to be very dissatisfied with Julie's nickname and snorted again.
" It can also temporarily stop the pulse. No, it should be said that it can make the pulse so small that it can't be felt." Ye Yuehuan seemed to have realized that his words were wrong and quickly corrected himself.
"What do we do?"
"Put the tennis ball…under your armpit."
"Ah!" He shouted.
They looked at each other and blinked several times.
"This way…Ah!"
He recalled how Nie De kept throwing and catching tennis balls. If he clamped the ball under his left armpit and tightened his grip…
"If his pulse is temporarily weak, it can also make the person who checks his pulse think that he is dead. Victoria only called me when she found out."
"I'm very afraid. Come to my side quickly.”
Julie teased.
Victoria's cheeks suddenly turned red, and she said angrily,"
"That's not what I meant. It's just that if I didn't say that, I wouldn't be able to move this Hantai who has bad thoughts about me."
"Hey, Victoria, how can you say that about your future boyfriend?”
Victoria's little face was even redder than before, making people want to take a bite.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Victoria began to play dirty. If there was land, would Victoria still be coquettish and roll around?
Julie is a little lonely| Solitary looked at the two of them who were stuck together even though they had been fighting back and forth…
The three of them walked onto the deck.
It was almost dawn, and the morning sun illuminated the wet deck. The intense rain from last night had lessened, but it had not stopped. The sea was still dark and the waves were still very turbulent.
The radio room was like a small wooden house on the mountainside, waiting for the three of them quietly. The deck was very slippery. Victoria almost fell down several times, and every time, Night Moon panicked.
Just as the two of them were about to enter the radio room…Julie, who was supposed to be following behind them, suddenly screamed.
"Waaah!"
Ye Yuehuan hurriedly turned around and saw a man pulling Julie's long black hair from behind.
That was Nie De Basda.
Julie screamed again.
"Don't!"
Nie De Basda's eyes were bloodshot, his mouth was bleeding.| Ba Kaikai looked like an evil monster in a child's nightmare. Julie's neck was bent to the limit, and she wailed in a dying struggle. The axe in his hand fell to the deck.
Nie De threw Julie's weak body onto the deck and strode over.
"Victoria, this way…!"
Night Moon dragged Victoria, who was unable to move because of fear, and ran forward. He almost slipped on the wet deck several times.
He opened the door to the radio room.
He stuffed Victoria in and was about to close the door…but Victoria stretched out.| She reached out her small hand and grabbed Ye Yuehuan.
"Victoria, you stay here. Use the radio to call for help!"
"Huan, what about you…?"
"I have to think of a way to stop that guy. Otherwise, you will be killed by him!"
"Illusion…"
"I was the one who…"
Ye Yuehuan looked at the approaching " Hound " Nie De, even though his whole body was trembling.| Trembling, he continued,
"I brought you here. I have the responsibility to let you go back safely.”
"-not at all!"
Victoria trembled.| The trembling voice shouted.
She looked like she was in pain. He clearly had something to say, but he couldn't find the words to express it... It was like the first time he encountered such a situation. Victoria opened his mouth several times, but couldn't find the appropriate words, and closed his mouth in vain.
Victoria finally found the words she wanted to say.
"…I wanted to come. I was the one who found the invitation and forced you…"
"That's not true. It's all my fault."
"Please think logically. Who is responsible?”
"This has nothing to do with logic! Right now, I just want you to be safe."
Ye Yuehuan stomped his feet anxiously. Victoria stamped her foot like him, making the floor creak. In the end, Ye Yuehuan could only say,"
"If I can't save you, am I still a man?？”
Ye Yuehuan conveyed his true feelings to Victoria.
"I love you. I just want to save you. That's all."
Victoria looked sad, but she opened her mouth as if she still had something to say. Ye Yuehuan forcefully closed the door.
The expression on Victoria's face was no longer the calm, mocking, and cold expression of the past. The transparent film that separated Victoria from the world no longer existed. Instead, it was replaced by a young girl's expression that matched her age and was filled with uneasiness.
Night Moon slammed the door shut.
The last thing he saw was Victoria's green eyes, which were as restless as a lost puppy.
"Illusion, illusion…"
The weak voice was almost inaudible.
"Huan, please…stay by my side. Let's go back together. I don't want to be alone. Illusion…!"
Ye Yuehuan closed his eyes and slammed the door shut.
In the next moment, the Hound pounced on him.
Ye Yuehuan gripped his machete tightly and got into position. He was negotiating with the system in his mind.
" System, can I get the rewards for the side quest: 'The Banquet in the Dark' and 'Ghost Ship Queenberry' first? Even if it's a small reward, it's fine.”
“…………”
"System, you bastard. You put me in this damn game for your own reasons. Now I'm going to die.| You didn't even give me compensation."
This time, the system's voice was no longer cold." Player 9527, you should understand that this game is similar to the novel Infinite Space. Everyone can die…"
"You bastard, infinite terror and the choice of yes and no at the beginning, you…|Mom brought me in without saying anything. Shouldn't you give me some compensation?”
"…Alright, but only this time."
" Oh, oh, long live the System." The speed at which he turned hostile…
" Player 9527 has received the system's compensation reward, a priority power card."
Special Item:
Level 1 priority power card:
(1) Mission reward prompt, mission difficulty unchanged.
(2) You can receive the mission reward first. After receiving the mission reward, you must complete the mission. If you do not complete the mission in the game, the reward amount will be deducted twice. Summoning Coins were not enough to kill him. (Note: Summoning Coins can be zero.)
"Activate the priority authority card and receive the side mission!”
"Player 9527 has activated the priority authority card. You have received a side mission reward of 12 summoning coins and a special item upgrade card.”
"System, Strength 5, Health 3, Agility 2."
After spending almost all the Summoning Coins in one go, Night Moon felt a surge of power in his body strengthening him. As for why he didn't summon the Fantasy Book, Night Moon discovered that the Fantasy Book wasn't permanent. It gave him a Summon Coin after using it once. It was a scam, but his attributes were permanent. Therefore, Night Moon added all his attributes.
Suddenly, Nie De stomped on the deck and jumped up, falling from the sky as if he was trying to suppress Ye Yuehuan. Ye Yuehuan was sent flying. His back hit the deck and he fell to the ground. The machete in his hand also flew out. Nie De pressed| He kept hitting Ye Yuehuan's face on his body. Ye Yuehuan only felt her consciousness gradually blurring.
"Damned Americans, you…|Why is Mom so strong?" Feeling that his strength was on par with hers, Yeyuohuan began to wonder how Hisashi Izumi won in the original novel...
If he lost, the lives of two people would easily disappear from the world---and what awaited him in the end was only a merciless end.
Ye Yuehuan gritted his teeth and tried his best to hold on. The moment he saw that Nie De's movements had slowed down slightly, he swung his fist upward. Ye Yuehuan's fist hit Nie De's face hard.
Nie De was hit on the head with a strength that was 0.5 times stronger than an ordinary person.
Nie De's head was knocked back several times by Ye Yuehuan's fists. However, no matter how many times he leaned back, he would stubbornly return to his original position. His face was already covered in blood, and his bloody head was truly terrifying. However, Ye Yuehuan still did not stop.
Nie De tightened his grip on Ye Yuehuan's neck, and her consciousness became blurry again.
I won't…I won't lose to you! I'm a gamer!
However, her neck was gripped tightly by the strength of an adult man, and her physical strength was disappearing bit by bit.
(Victoria, plus…!)
Ye Yuehuan opened his eyes. In his blurry vision, he could only see white.
Clenching his teeth, he used all his strength to punch Nie De's temple. Nie De, who had suffered a heavy blow, suddenly felt his strength weaken. Ye Yuehuan panted heavily and opened his eyes.
After replenishing his oxygen, he finally regained his vision. Ye Yuehuan stood up and stepped back slightly, leaning against the handrail of the deck. Nie De, whose face was covered in blood, also stood up. He dragged his feet and swayed his body as he chased after her.
Ye Yuehuan focused his gaze on the figure behind him.
…That was Julie. She had already regained consciousness and quietly approached them, her hand still tightly holding the axe. She looked at Ye Yuehuan and put her index finger to her lips to signal for silence. Ye Yuehuan nodded.
Nie De swung his fist at Ye Yuehuan again.
In that instant…
Night Moon relied on his powerful agility attribute to squat down, passing between Nie De's feet and arriving behind him. Nie De, who had his center of gravity forward, suddenly lost his target and staggered forward. Julie raised her axe high and swung it down at Nie De's back. The heavily injured Nie De roared like a wild beast.
Julie trembled.| His trembling hands left the axe.
Ye Yuehuan picked up the machete on the ground and swung it, sending Nie De into the sea with his powerful Strength attribute.
Ye Yuehuan hurriedly ran to the handrail and looked down at the sea.
"Crash…"| The waves engulfed Nie De's body.
Many white bubbles floated up. Nie De Basda's body disappeared from the surface of the sea under the crashing waves.
Julie also moved closer to the armrest. He shrugged and panted heavily.
"Huan…you saved my life."
"No, you saved my life."
"Well done."
Julie smiled faintly.
The white waves rose and fell slightly, and the sea was relatively calm near dawn. The two of them looked at the dark ocean that swallowed Nie De in silence.
In the radio room, Victoria sent an SOS signal to the rescue team at sea.
The small body sat alone in front of the huge square machine, as if someone had placed a doll there. But there was also evidence that it was not a doll-her face was pale and her hands were busy.
The door opened-and Victoria's shoulders gave a shudder of shock.
When he saw that it was Ye Yuehuan who came in, he instantly showed an expression of relief and almost cried. In the next moment, he returned to his usual calm and sarcastic aristocratic expression.
"…From what I can see, you should be safe and sound.”
Victoria had a strange expression on her face when she saw Julie.
Julie did not notice and continued to speak in a cheerful tone,"
"You've already asked for help, right?"
"Of course. They should be arriving soon. Right, our current location…"
Victoria shrugged with a dark expression.
"It doesn't seem to be far from the port where we went out to sea. The other party found it unbelievable. How could he be killed so close to land? It would take a lot of effort to explain to them via radio!”
Then, Victoria stood up and walked slowly to Night Moon.
It was like an exquisite doll walking around. However, there was also evidence that it was not a doll. An indescribable expression appeared on her face. It was relief, worry, and some kind of transparent...
Victoria remained silent and held Ye Yuehuan's hand tightly.
The three of them boarded the rescue team's boat under their protection. A few minutes later-
The cruise ship, the Queenberry, made a loud noise and sank to the bottom of the sea.
The scene was truly spectacular. The huge ship slowly sank, leaving behind a peaceful ocean that stirred up waves before disappearing. It was as if nothing had happened.
Unlike the Queenberry, the rescue ship was a sturdy ship with a well-used deck and mottled handrails.
At this moment, two young men wearing rabbit fur hunting hats (good friends) rushed over to the rescue team. They were holding hands for some reason…They were Gurewin. de Officer Blois's subordinate.
The two of them shouted with livid faces. After confirming that Victoria was safe, he said,"
"That's great! He was still alive! What a miracle!"
"You scared me to death…Wow! The ship sank! It's really amazing!"
They kept arguing.
Victoria leaned against the railing of the deck and stared at the sea. Her long golden hair, which was as soft as silk threads and shone with a dazzling luster, fluttered in the strong sea breeze. The luxurious dress she was wearing, white lace| The silk became dirty, and there were spots where it was stained and torn.
He had a lonely expression.
Ye Yuehuan stood beside her."
"What are you looking at?"
Victoria suddenly raised her head and smiled. Then, she quietly moved her cherry lips closer to Ye Yuehuan's ear and whispered,"
"I don't hate beautiful things.”
Then he pointed to the sea surface reflecting the morning sun.| The waves surged and receded like burning scarlet waves.
It was a delicate finger.
The rain had stopped at some point, and the dazzling morning sun shone on the entire ship. The surface of the sea was dyed bright red, and the strong morning sun shone brightly on the two of them.
It was only then that Ye Yuehuan realized that it was the first time his petite, blonde-haired future girlfriend (who she thought) had told him her "preferences". Ye Yuehuan could not help but smile when he realized that she was talking about something very special.
The two of them stood side by side, quietly staring at the scenery.
In the end, Ye Yuehuan whispered,"
"Do it again next time!"
"…Next time?"
"Yes! Let's go see the sea together."
Victoria smiled for some reason.
"Next time?"
"Hmm?"
"If you change your tongue, then…"
The sun slowly rose.
The red light he felt earlier had turned into a gentle light.
The ship was approaching land.
Then, the gentle waves came and went.
