"This pillar … feels a bit strange?"
At first, Chiyuketsu thought it was a cylindrical mountain. After all, nothing was strange in the dream world.
But upon closer inspection, he found that the mountain that seemed to connect the sky and the earth was not navy blue like the usual mountain rocks. Instead, it was closer to the color of flesh.
"Ah, that's not a pillar."
Dounia, who was carrying little Qiu Yue on her back, was flying in a superhuman posture. When she heard little Qiu Yue's words, she replied with a bitter smile.
"Mountain?" Chiyuketsu raised his little head a little, but the wind outside made a gurgling sound. He quickly lowered his head and pressed it against Dounia's back.
"It's a finger."
Dounia didn't seem to notice what was happening behind her. She slowed down a little to prepare for the landing. She explained to Chiyuketsu.
"After Uncle Jiang Boer lost the Spear of Seven that Dad and the others built for him in this world, he faced the end of the world with his own strength. Like Dad's former companions, he transcended the shackles of the power of heroes, broke through the constraints of the world, completed the self-consistency of the law, and achieved the true sublimation of life in the true sense."
She said softly.
Strangely, in the whistling wind produced by flying at a relatively fast speed in the sky, her soft words should be drowned out and dissipated in an instant, but Chiyuketsu heard her words in full.
It was a pity that the content was too profound for little Qiu Yue to comprehend.
"If he chose to retreat at that time, Uncle Jiang Boer should be able to survive like me with this body that has transcended the world, but in the end, he decided to face his own death. At the last moment of the world, in order to preserve the remaining fire of civilization, he used all his strength and struck at the existence that brought about the end of the world … After that blow, his sturdy body was torn apart. But thanks to this, although this world was fragmented, it was not turned into ashes by the catastrophe and completely disappeared. "
"And in the space we're in right now, because of me, Uncle Jiang Boer left behind three fingers. The one that supports the sky is his index finger, the one that turns into the earth is his thumb, and the one that evolves into all living things is his little finger. He probably feels sorry for me and my father, so he wants me to live a good life in this space until my father can find me. "
Hearing this, Chiyuketsu touched the back of Dounia's head for some reason.
Dounia: "?"
"Hey, hey, hey, I was going to pat your head, Dounia." Chiyuketsu stuck out his tongue and said, "But my head is too short, and your wings are in the way, so I can only touch the back of your head."
"Is this a new prank?"
"Of course not! Although I don't quite understand what you're saying, you must have a good relationship with that Uncle Jiang Boer, right? " Little Qiu Yue's voice became much gentler. "I once watched the person closest to me leave. At that time, I couldn't stop crying. In the end, I cried until I couldn't even cry anymore. If I didn't meet big brother, I think I would have continued to be sad for a long time … Although I don't know what kind of feelings you had when you sent that uncle off, I think it must have been something very, very painful. That's why I wanted to 'pat your head' like big brother to comfort you!"
"Really … If that's the case, you're more than a hundred years too late!"
Dounia complained, but her voice was as gentle as a spoiled child.
At this point, Dounia finally landed on the slightly undulating ground.
Although she tried her best to be as gentle as possible, Chiyuketsu still slipped off Dounia's back due to the inertia of landing. He fell face down on the grass and let out a cute whimper.
"Ahhh, sorry, because I've never flown with someone before …"
Dounia hurriedly helped him up and apologized profusely.
"It's okay, I'm fine …" Chiyuketsu, whose nose was red from the bump, waved his hand and said. Because of the bump, his voice sounded a little strange.
"That's good."
Dounia breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, her gaze turned to the towering pillar not far away.
"If there's a place in this space that's the most vulnerable and most likely to be transmigrated, it's here."
"Is it like this?"
Chiyuketsu rubbed his nose and said in a muffled voice.
"Dounia, you haven't seen me in a long time … Hmm? This … Are there other living people in this space? "
At this moment, a dark shadow suddenly shrouded the two of them.
Little Qiu Yue's movements were a little stiff as she looked towards the black shadow.
Then he saw a muscular man who could cosplay as Hercules without feeling out of place.
"Eek!" The little girl was so scared that she hid behind Dounia.
"Don't be afraid, Chiyuketsu. He's the Uncle Jainboer I was talking about."
Dounia still looked quite cheerful.
But the moment she said that, little Qiuyue trembled even more violently, like a little quail that had shrunk into a ball in winter. "B-But didn't you just say that 'Uncle Jiang Boer' is already dead?"
"Yes, he's dead." Dounia nodded.
"Hahaha, and his death was quite miserable. The biggest piece of his body was his finger. Can you believe it?"
Meng Nan was also quite cheerful as he used a barbarian's style to talk about his own death. He actually looked very happy.
"Eh? Eh? "
Chiyuketsu's eyes almost turned into question marks. She felt that her worldview was about to collapse at this moment.
"Actually, there's nothing strange about it. This world doesn't have an independent reincarnation system like the world I've been to before. Instead, like most worlds, the soul of a living being is directly connected to the world's origin after death. Therefore, after the world collapses and the origin disappears, the concept of life and death becomes very vague. Even the dead can reappear and be treated as a type of soul."
Dounia seemed to have seen through Chiyuketsu's doubts and began to explain to her.
"Huh?"
Chiyuketsu still looked confused.
But this time, Dounia didn't seem to want to explain too much. She just gently tiptoed and touched Chiyuketsu's head.
"It's okay. Leave everything to us. Just treat this as a dream."
"?" Chiyuketsu's face was full of doubts, but in the end, she nodded.
"Oh, this girl …" At this time, the muscular man on the opposite side seemed to have noticed something. He narrowed his eyes and stared at Chiyuketsu. After seeing that the latter was even more afraid, he showed a relieved expression and turned to look at Dounia. "Forget it, Dounia. What's the matter?"
"I want to send her 'outside'." Dounia "obediently" touched Chiyuketsu's head again.
Then she told the muscular man about what happened earlier.
"You really know how to make trouble for me."
The muscular man sighed, thought for a while, and then said, "If your guess is right, this is indeed the weakest part of the realm. But because of my finger, ordinary means can't pass through the world wall. "
"Is there no way at all?" Dounia asked unwillingly.
Although they haven't known each other for a long time, she did see Chiyuketsu as her own sister. She really cared about her sister.
"Not really. The best way to break through my defense is for me to throw her up. If she can cross over, she probably has a special constitution that allows her to pass through the world wall … But the problem is that when I throw her out, to be honest, it's no different from throwing her into a magic crystal cannon made by the dwarves. I'm afraid that the moment she leaves the cannon, she will be blown into a pile of minced meat."
The muscular man shook his head and explained the problem to Dounia.
"Soo Wa Tokana!"
"Nani! … By the way, what does this conversation mean? Your father liked to say this to us back then. "The muscular man subconsciously continued the conversation.
"I don't know!" Dounia replied with a cheerful smile.
"…"
"But if you're only worried about 'leaving the cannon,' I can solve this problem."
Dounia turned around and came face to face with Chiyuketsu.
Then the silver-haired little girl grabbed the black-haired little girl's hands. As the two interlocked fingers, the silver-haired little girl moved closer to the black-haired little girl, and the two were almost touching each other.
Dounia also turned her head so that her cheek was tightly pressed against Chiyuketsu's face.
The way the two little Lolis stuck to each other was very cute and pleasing to the eye. Especially Dounia, who looked happy and proud. Little Qiu Yue, on the other hand, looked a lot shyer. The two completely different appearances made them even more adorable. If there was a circle of lilies around them, they could be directly photographed and used as a hanging painting.
"Look!"
"Look at what?" Meng Nan was confused. He thought for a moment, then said with some confusion, "If your father was here, he would be very happy … But my aesthetic standards are not the same as humans. I prefer strong women. I used to be a green-skinned female beastman in the hills north of Oravia … The kind with fangs on their chin. They are very sexy. I have no interest in normal human women, especially those without breasts and buttocks …."
"Uncle Jambord, are you an idiot?" Dounia's eyes turned into cute crescents.
"Your father always says that about me … Why are you becoming more and more like that guy in this kind of place …"
"What I mean is, you can throw me out too! My cloud scales can protect Chiyuketsu! "
Dounia continued.
The muscular man thought for a moment and then hammered his hand.
"Maybe it will work!"
"Hmph, after all, it's someone else's idea."
The muscular man had always followed the maxim of acting when he thought of something. Therefore, after discussing some emergency measures with Dounia, the muscular man put his hand on the ground in a half-kneeling position and had the two of them stand on it. "Hurry up. After all, I don't have a body now. The time I can materialize is limited."
Chiyuketsu was a little scared at first, but for some reason, when he saw Dounia's encouraging eyes, most of the worry in his heart disappeared. Just like that, they stood on the muscular man's palm that was several times bigger than a casserole.
"Hold on tight, Chiyuketsu. The range of my cloud scales is a little small!"
"Okay!" Chiyuketsu immediately hugged Dounia's body tightly.
"Ugh …" Dounia was shorter than Chiyuketsu and was directly suffocated by his bear hug.
Fortunately, Chiyuketsu soon realized that something was wrong and loosened his arms slightly.
The next moment, the muscular man's muscles suddenly bulged, and the blue veins on his arms were violently protruding.
Before Chiyuketsu could react, they were already thrown into the air by the muscular man!
"Eeeeeee —?!"
Chiyuketsu let out an involuntary cry.
"Don't worry, I will protect you!"
Dounia's timely voice made the girl's fear fade away.
Due to the violent friction with the air, their surroundings had turned orange-red, which represented the high temperature. However, Dounia's cloud scales seemed to be very impressive. Not only did it isolate the damage, but it also isolated the high temperature.
The originally vast and boundless earth beneath their feet had also become visible. The only thing that didn't change was the finger that supported the sky beside them.
After flying for a long time, when the land below them became the size of a chessboard, finally, a strange hole appeared in the sky.
At the same time, the muscular man seemed to have used up all his strength. The speed of their ascent gradually slowed until it came to a stop, as if they would fall at any time.
"Dounia?!"
While Chiyuketsu was at a loss, Dounia let go of Chiyuketsu's hand, turned to Chiyuketsu's back, and spread her dragon wings.
"Don't worry, I will definitely send you back!"
The dragon wings exerted strength again, and Chiyuketsu rose toward the hole again.
But not long after, as if they had crashed into an invisible wall, the space in front of Chiyuketsu rippled. If it weren't for the cloud scales, perhaps Chiyuketsu would have been smashed into meat paste.
"Dounia …"
"Trust me!"
"… Okay!"
"Ahhhhh —!"
Dounia yelled like an angry kitten. Her body bloomed in a silver light, and her beautiful silver hair danced wildly. The propulsion of the metallic dragon wings became stronger, and the ripples in the space in front of Chiyuketsu became denser.
The sound of shattering mirrors sounded.
At first, Chiyuketsu thought it was Dounia's' cloud scales' that shattered. But after a few moments, she realized that it was the invisible wall in front of her that separated her from the big hole!
