"Sounds perfect, but you need to understand that the price you pay will be a thousand times more painful than when you created the Second Avatar, and you could die at any moment. Are you afraid?" Afu asked me solemnly once again.
"Tell me, what are the chances of success?"
"Less than ten percent."
"Alright, I'm willing to give it a try."
"Since you've made your decision, I will do my best to keep you safe," Afu said.
"Little Spike, come here," Afu called.
The group strolled over, circling around me, sniffing at something and glancing between me and Afu.
"Go!" Afu suddenly shouted.
Before I could react, the Sting Lion instantly shrank down to about the size of a fist and charged towards my body.
What?! It really entered my body!
I felt something churning inside me, moving around wildly. My breath began to become erratic, and I realized this was bad...
Ink Seal watched me nervously from the side, while Purple Seal stood nearby with a furrowed brow.
"Ah—!" I couldn't help but scream; it was too painful!
My body began to swell little by little, like a balloon, inflating endlessly. No, this can't be! I'll burst! My body felt like it was tearing apart; every part of me seemed to be slowly detaching from its original position, even—falling off.
The Sting Lion inside me grew larger bit by bit, and my skin bulged and sank along with the protruding spikes on its body.
"No, no, no, please don't!" I exclaimed!
It was too painful, more brutal than being torn apart by five horses; I endured my body being shattered into countless pieces.
"Bang!"
It shattered; my body shattered. My only hope, even the Necromancer State...
I didn't know where I was floating, unable to see my body or anything around me. Consciousness faded away, my soul scattered. Soon, I would completely disappear from the three realms. I had lost.
"Xi Meng, hold on!" It was the voice of Ink Seal, but it felt like it was coming from another space, unclear and distant.
"Have you found her yet?!" It was Purple Seal, sounding very anxious.
"Not yet, just wait a little longer," said Afu.
"I can wait, but she can't hold on much longer!" Purple Seal—was this concern for me?
"We're taking a gamble; you understand that," Afu said nonchalantly as the surroundings began to fall silent again.
...
"She's not going to make it, is she?" Purple Seal sighed.
"I... I can't do anything. Little Spike is still searching; we can only wait," Afu replied.
"She will pull through!" Only Ink Seal remained steadfast as always, though his tone revealed a hint of vulnerability.
Then, I truly couldn't hear anything anymore.
“Xi Meng, Xi Meng, Xi Meng——”
Who is it? The voice is so familiar, I miss it so much, the feeling of longing.
“Is it— you, Yue?”
“Hehe, finally, I can see you again.”
“Is it really you, Yue?!”
“It’s me, it’s real.”
“Why can’t I see you…?” My voice trembles with tears. I’ve finally come this far, but I can’t see anything!
“Don’t be afraid, I can see you,” Yue reassures my anxious emotions.
“Where are you?!”
“I’m right beside you; I’ve never gone far.”
“Yue, Yue—”
“Xi Meng, you will find me, right?”
“Yes, I swear!”
“Hehe, then just hold on a little longer, and soon you will see me. From now on, I will always stay by your side.”
"Mm mm mm mm, I will hold on. You stay here, by my side."
"I will."
...
"I found it!" Afu shouted.
"Hurry, merge!" Ink Seal responded.
"Little Spike, gather! Quickly!" Afu commanded.
"Ah woof, ah woof, woof—"
...
"Xi Meng, it's time. Get ready," Yue said.
"Are you going to disappear again?"
"It's just temporary. Soon, we will meet again."
"You said that. Don't lie to me!"
"Did you forget? I will never lie to you, never hurt you, never blame you..."
"Yue—I will wait for you."
Clearly, when an object breaks, we try to piece it back together, but the process is not that easy. Just like my body, shattered into countless fragments, seems to be summoned from all directions, slowly coming together.
You should know that this feeling—equally unpleasant.
When I opened my eyes again, I dared not recall what had happened to me...
"You're awake?!" Purple Seal was the first to shout.
I slowly sat up; such a simple action made my body feel as light as a feather, without any resistance at all. This sensation was different from that of the Undead.
Standing up, I walked step by step, as if my feet barely touched the Ground. Moreover, I felt as though I was not hindered by any tangible or intangible substances in this space, moving freely.
The two inner cores quietly rotated on either side of my body, spinning at the same frequency, absorbing and emitting boundless energy.
"Master, you're awake!"
Was that Little Pink speaking?!
I suddenly looked up. Had everyone returned?!
Little Pink, Mosang, Ink Seal, Purple Seal, Afu, and her Sting Lion. I smiled lightly, though still a bit disappointed...
Moon, have we really come closer?
