Late at night, living room at home.
I didn't turn on the lights since it wasn't dark enough to affect my vision. It was already quiet upstairs and downstairs. Everyone in the house was probably asleep, except for the ghost that might be wandering in the basement. However, it wasn't the time for Anveena to come upstairs. She usually entered the living room at around 11 o 'clock at night and started to sing the Undead Overture until 12 o' clock after cleaning for half an hour …
I looked around the living room and found a figure sleeping on the sofa.
What surprised him even more was that the girl who was casually sleeping in the living room was not the nine-tailed fox that had almost degenerated into a pet dog, but Lin Xue. The missy had a thin blanket draped over her body and she was curled up on the big sofa. She looked like a frozen hamster. Her head was buried under her arms and her breathing was so soft that it was almost inaudible. It was obvious that she had been asleep for a while. I stared blankly at her for a while. I didn't know why this girl would fall asleep in a place like this.
Moreover, she didn't return home today.
I carefully tiptoed in front of Da Xiaojie like a thief. I half squatted down to study the strange sleeping posture of this lass. This was the first time I saw Da Xiaojie sleeping in such a state. I didn't think that this usually all-powerful lass would have such a quiet and weak side. When she was awake, she was always radiant. She had a sharp tongue and was swift and fierce. She was like an arrogant hedgehog that could stab people at any time. But now, she was curled up into a ball and sleeping soundly. She was so weak that I was worried that she would wake up from her nightmare.
Looking at the girl in front of me, I suddenly had a feeling: She seemed to be very insecure. I didn't have any evidence, but my intuition told me so. The way she slept and the aura she exuded made me feel inexplicably that Lin Xue was very insecure. She seemed to have been frightened by something and hadn't recovered yet.
I stopped thinking about why the missy would sleep in this place and why she didn't return home today. Instead, I slowly bent down and kissed her hair. Then, I thought about how to carry her into the room — — No matter what, it wasn't a good idea to leave my girlfriend hanging in the living room like this. There was a room left for her at home. But just as I was about to carry the girl, her body suddenly moved. Then, she raised her head in a daze. A pair of eyes that hadn't woken up yet met mine in the dark.
Then, I was kicked away by her.
"Master, what's wrong!?" Anveena's panicked voice came from underground. Then, I saw half of a ghost's body emerge from the floor and look around in horror. This ghost maid wanted to learn from the female ghosts in horror movies, but she couldn't get the hang of it. However, her ability to accidentally scare people was self-taught. Very soon, An Weina saw me sliding down the wall with my head down. In front of the sofa on the opposite side, the missy in a thin blanket was maintaining a flying kick in the dark. That clean foot might have broken the sound barrier just now, with the parabola I flew out to prove it.
The light on Anveena's body flickered. She looked at the remains of the master and mistress' fight in confusion. Then, she patted the lace on her chest and bowed to me and Lin Xue. Then, with an expression of "I understand", she slowly sank down from the floor and continued to manage her wraith kingdom in the basement.
I flopped on the ground a few times and reached out my hand to the missy: "Are you going to keep watching or what?"
It was only then that Lin Xue threw down the blanket and nimbly scuttled toward me. She grabbed my arm and pulled me up while muttering, "I had a nightmare just now, I didn't do it on purpose … Also, who told you to stare at me like a pervert!? My six senses are sharp in my sleep, and it's not like you don't know that I'm a chaste person! "
I rolled my eyes while being pulled up by this chick. Your six senses are sharp? Your six senses are sharp enough for me to stare at you for ten minutes before waking up? Your six senses are sharp enough to kick me away, yet you still haven't woken up from your daze? I know this chick is a chaste person. After kissing the missy for the first time, she almost went berserk and killed someone, although I always insisted it was because my girlfriend was shy …
"Hey …" Lin Xue complained to herself, then her tone suddenly changed. She looked at me with a bit of worry, her eyes glimmered in the dark, "Are you okay? I heard the sonic boom just now. "
I: "… It was just a bit of a shock during the landing, everything else is fine."
I patted the non-existent dust off my body and pinched the missy's nose: "Why are you sleeping in the living room in the middle of the night? Aren't you going home today? Did you ask for leave? "
"I told my parents that I'm going to the Antarctic Circle to study penguins. If I don't go back for a while, I'll be frozen there temporarily." Lin Xue muttered, "Gramps already cleared it up. As for the reason, we just have to make it up that we're in the atmosphere."
I thought about it. Usually, when the missy ran around with me, she rarely stayed in the atmosphere … What kind of nervous system were her parents born with? Did they buy cabbages for their daughter?
I looked at Lin Xue's sleepy face. I knew that she was very tired from the fierce battle that had lasted for two days and two nights. I originally wanted to ask her about Halan, but now my heart softened and I couldn't open my mouth. I just gently hugged her in my arms. "Are you waiting here for me to come home? This is the first time this has happened. "
I decided, if the missy turns on her tsundere mode and starts mocking me, I'll pretend I didn't hear it.
The girl in my arms was stunned, then nodded lightly: "Yeah …"
I finally realized that something wasn't right. Ever since we'd returned to the City of Shadows in the afternoon, she had been behaving strangely. When I'd been listening to the report at the headquarters, I'd met her gaze once. She'd seemed to be behaving strangely then.
Her eyes carried a sense of fear for no reason.
"What's going on?" After hugging like this for a while, I held Lin Xue's waist with one hand and patted her hair with the other. Then I realized that we had been hugging in this extremely intimate position for a few minutes. For the usually cautious and shy Xue, this was a rare situation. This fierce girl had always been a complete mess when it came to relationships between men and women.
"No …" I only heard a vague word in front of me. Then, I felt the hands around my waist tightening, as though they wanted to press their bodies into mine. Lin Xue actually hugged me tightly. I analyzed for a while and finally confirmed that the missy didn't want to murder her husband. So I had to remind her: "That … It's about to break …"
"… You blockhead, can't you die a little?!" The missy was stunned. Then, she let go of me and stepped back. She raised her foot and stepped on my toes. The entire movement was done in one go. Luckily, she was barefoot. Otherwise, Anveena would definitely be called up again by my call.
I could finally see Lin Xue's current appearance. There were tears at the corner of her eyes. She was crying.
"Damn! Girl, what's wrong with you!? " I hurriedly wiped the tears off Lin Xue's face. I felt that there was definitely something wrong with this world. Today, Lin Xue was brimming with a strong sense of strangeness. What she had done in the past ten minutes was enough to frighten our family for two weeks. At that moment, I couldn't help but want to ask if the girl in front of me was Schilling in disguise. But I knew that if I asked that question, I would definitely be sent flying. So, in the end, I suppressed it.
Lin Xue's face revealed an expression that I couldn't tell if she was crying or laughing, "Don't ask. I'm much better now. Today … I had a nightmare."
I suddenly pressed on Lin Xue's shoulder, "No, you don't look like you're fine. What happened? If you didn't tell me, I couldn't sleep. I have terminal OCD … "
Missy looked at me silently as if she was weighing whether she should really murder her husband for peace. But, in the end, she still twitched the corner of her mouth and said, "Actually, it's really nothing. There's a small problem with my prophecy … We will find out what happened. You don't have to …"
I continued to look at Missy persistently and pressed my hand on her shoulder to show my determination. Not far away, a glowing ghost maid appeared on the ground again. Anveena was about to come up and clean up the room. But, she saw the master and the mistress looking at each other lovingly (from a third-person perspective). So, she revealed an expression that said "I understand" and sank down again.
"It was when you led the troops to support the border," Missy said slowly. "Not long after you left, I 'looked' at you, but … you disappeared. Disappeared from all the events and the future."
When Lin Xue said the second half of her sentence, her eyes suddenly widened. The feeling of fear seemed to attack her again and completely engulfed her.
I knew what frightened her, and I also knew what her so-called nightmare was.
"It's okay, it's okay … Aren't I right here? I'm fine." I smiled and patted Missy's hair as if I was comforting a child. She usually looked rather strong, but when she was weak, she was really someone who needed comforting.
Disappeared from all the events … This was a scene that only Lin Xue could see. This situation meant one thing: The target of the prophecy would die at some point in time, and his death was one hundred percent certain. No matter what measures were taken, no matter what changes were made, the target's death would definitely happen. Because the eyes of the prophet could see any potential line of history, if a prophet couldn't see the target at all, then the target would definitely not be able to survive in any world.
That was the theory.
Lin Xue had foreseen my death, but she had no idea why it would happen, and she couldn't see any way to avoid it. She was terrified. I could feel that even now, when I was standing right in front of her, her body was still trembling slightly. The fear brought about by the nightmare hadn't completely subsided. I could understand what was going on.
Not only did she see that scene, but she also experienced a small part of the history after my death as the person involved. In other words, that scene wasn't just a piece of information to her, it was an event that she had experienced firsthand and had real memories of. As a prophet, this was a heavy pressure that she couldn't avoid. Everything she prophesied might just be images to others, but to her, it was as if she had really experienced it.
Under such circumstances, it was easy to imagine how much impact the death of her loved ones had on her.
"Something must have gone wrong, right?" Lin Xue sniffled hard as if she had finally calmed down. "I was really terrified … Don't laugh, it's true! My mind was blank at that time. I don't know how much time had passed, but when I woke up from all the events, I saw you appear again. Do you know how happy I was? "
"And because of this, you lived in fear for so many days? You didn't tell anyone? " I smiled and stroked Missy's long black hair. "And you even waited here for me to come back today. Did you want to confirm that I would really come back?"
Lin Xue, who was usually stubborn on such topics, was unusually honest this time. She nodded happily and said, "Yes, I was worried about you, you b * stard. Do you have anything to say?"
Looking at Missy's glowing eyes in the dark, I was moved. But at the same time, I was really confused by her bizarre "prophecy error." She had never made such a mistake before. No matter how I looked at it, the mistake this time was a little too ridiculous. A living person had died because of her prophecy, and the one who died was herself. If I could still remain calm at such a time, my nerves would definitely be so thick that they were close to necrosis.
"You said that you prophesied my death after the departure of the Sixth Fleet?" I confirmed it and got an affirmative answer from her. Then, I began to think about all the possible reasons.
What was I doing after the departure of the Sixth Fleet? What did I encounter at that time? Where was the position of the fleet when Missy started her prophecy?
After thinking about it, I found that the only thing that could be suspicious was the state where I was wandering in the void.
If the time difference wasn't too big, when Lin Xue made that prophecy, I should have just sunk into the void. At that time, I seemed to have had a dream. In the dream, I was talking to a strange voice. The surrounding environment was the void, and the voice reminded me of the mysterious civilization on the other side of the abyss. But it sounded different … Then, the fleet arrived at the border.
Throughout the entire process, only the state where I was wandering in the void could have interfered with Missy's prophecy. Could it be that after I entered that "original state," I would be cut off from all information in the real world?
"No, no," Missy heard my guess and shook her head so hard that I could almost see her afterimage. "I saw you when you were sleepwalking. I could see it, although it was blurry like that."
For the sake of my own health, I resisted the urge to ask Missy what 'that' was referring to.
Oh right, as I was unable to understand the senses of Void Creatures, many people in the family had always called my state of wandering in the void as sleepwalking. They felt that it could be a unique method of sleepwalking for Void Creatures. Until now, I haven't been able to change anyone's opinion on this.
It seemed that the wrong prophecy had nothing to do with the state of wandering in the void. But according to the time, it was indeed after I had entered the state of wandering in the void that Lin Xue saw the horrifying nightmare. It didn't seem right no matter how I looked at it.
At that moment, I thought of that strange voice again.
Could it be related to that voice?
Thinking about it carefully, it was the first time that I had a conversation with that voice while I was wandering in the void. Before that, Missy had never used a prophecy on me in a similar situation. In other words, I couldn't rule out the possibility that the voice had triggered the 'nightmare' that Lin Xue saw.
What I could be sure of was that the future that Lin Xue prophesied didn't happen. Furthermore, it wasn't possible for it to happen under any circumstances. Even though I wasn't confident that I was invincible, I was confident in the tenacity of the lives of Void Creatures. In theory, the only ones who could get rid of me were Xing Chen and Hilla, my two elder brothers and sisters. But no matter how they thought about it, it was impossible for them to have the impulse to reduce the population of their entire race by a third. Considering that Lin Xue only didn't see my figure appear in the future timeline and didn't see the exact scene of my death, there was only one possibility — the so-called death didn't exist. The real situation was that something had blocked Lin Xue's line of sight.
It was completely, completely blocked, to the point that not even a single route was left.
Hearing this deduction, Missy could only nod her head in agreement. That was because she was also confused. After eliminating the effect of the Prophet's Eye, this lass's deduction ability was actually on the same level as mine …
"Alright, now that the situation is clear and I am by your side, you can be at ease, right?" I felt that I had successfully saved the world. Thus, I reached out my hand and pinched Missy's soft cheeks. She finally let out a breath. The effects of the nightmare seemed to have ended. She confirmed that her world was still safe and sound and that the sky wasn't falling. Thus, she revealed a bright smile.
As for me, after putting down this troublesome matter, I saw Missy's happy smile and felt relieved. Then, I suddenly realized that the current atmosphere … was very subtle …
In the dead of the night, a man and a woman alone, Missy had been waiting for me until now. Furthermore, she was currently in the softest and most defenseless state in history. This … Was she going to censor the last segment?
"Blockhead?" Seeing that I was dumbfounded, Lin Xue looked at me in confusion.
I blinked and my gaze fell on the girl in front of me … She was really beautiful.
Then, I began to think about the ultimate question of life: Is it appropriate to eat this lass today?
I love her.
She loves me.
Moreover, ten minutes ago, I was 100% sure of all of this.
Then it's appropriate — — When two people in love are together, there's nothing that can't be said!
"Lass," I was a little embarrassed. I wasn't sure how to open my mouth to avoid being smashed away by this girl. But then, I remembered that I had been smashed away quite a number of times. Thus, I shamelessly grabbed her arm, "Let's go to my room, tonight."
Lin Xue's eyes suddenly widened. Then, I prepared myself. If she took out a large machete with golden rings and a silver back, then I would let her chop me a few times to vent her anger. But after waiting for a long time, Missy gave me a weird smile, "Blockhead … You beast …"
I threw caution to the wind and hugged Lin Xue, "Beast? You're already an adult — — Our child is almost as tall as you!"
Lin Xue continued to have that weird smile on her face. I couldn't understand her attitude, "Blockhead, did you forget my ability?"
Me, "?"
"Me, my eyes almost always fall on you."
Me, "…"
"I saw what you were going to say tonight when I woke up yesterday morning."
Me, "!?"
"Then, I replayed your wretched appearance more than two hundred times in my head."
Me, "!!"
"How should I answer … Before you said it, I was already done thinking about it. Now, I'm just waiting for it to happen naturally."
Me, "…" For the first time in my life, I lamented why Missy had to be a prophet when she didn't have any other abilities!! Do you have to make our first romantic time so strange?!
"Idiot …" Missy had a naughty smile on her face, "Actually, I've already decided. No matter when you say it, I'll be yours — — But you have to remember, no matter what happens, you'll always be mine! Alright, remember to put Jingle in a safe place. She's an unstable factor. "
I was very familiar with this, so I immediately took out the unconscious goddess from my pocket. Then, I took out a large open bottle from my portable space and put Jingle inside. I screwed the bottle cap and put it in the pocket of a change of clothes hanging behind the door. Since the goddess didn't need to breathe, and as far as I know, Jingle slept more soundly in a sealed bottle.
Lin Xue was stunned as she watched me do everything in thirty seconds. Her eyebrows twitched and the corner of her mouth twitched, "… How skilled are you usually!"
I brought Lin Xue to my room on tiptoe. I felt like I was a thief. Although our relationship was already public, I didn't understand why I still felt like a thief. But when I entered the room, I knew why I was tiptoeing subconsciously: there was a large suitcase under the window opposite me, and there was the sound of someone talking in their sleep coming from the suitcase.
"Wait a moment." I asked Lin Xue to wait on the side. Then, I carefully lifted the suitcase. I was afraid that I would wake up the little doll inside. Finally, I placed the suitcase in the small room next door. Before I left, I was still worried, so I placed more than twenty linear algebra exercises around the suitcase. I hoped that the doll would fall asleep when it saw these things when it came out to sleepwalk.
Seeing that I was done, Lin Xue finally said, "Do we have to follow the standards of a spy battle?"
I almost cried and looked at Missy, "It's necessary when there's a naughty child."
Then, the rest of the night belonged to us.
"I'm a little … shy."
Missy shyly sat in front of me. When I reached for her collar, this girl who was many times more reserved than she looked couldn't help but say, "We don't need anything else to pretend to be strong anymore."
I pretended not to hear, and after a while, Missy was only left in her underwear.
Yep, a set of black lace underwear that was extremely revealing and shameful was tightly wrapped around the girl's white and beautiful body. No matter where it should or shouldn't be exposed, I could basically see it — — what is this? Winning outfit!?
I suddenly remembered that two months ago, Missy mysteriously asked me what color underwear I liked girls to wear: How long did you prepare for this girl!? Is a girl with prophetic attributes so crazy?!
"Forget it! I'm going all out! " As if she had finally reached her limit, Missy broke down and stood up again. She no longer tried to hide and instead threw herself in front of me. Her chest immediately shook: This girl is actually quite busty. "Isn't it just being defiled by a beast like you! The child is already 1.6 meters tall, what is there for me to be afraid of — — Come, face me! "
"…"
Did my precious Missy finally drive me crazy?
