Of all the people that Han Fei had interacted with, Spider was the most complicated. His 9 personas intertwined together, sometimes even he could not see his own heart clearly.
The blood rushed through and the curse on Han Fei was temporarily suppressed. The wounds on Han Fei's skin started to heal.
His strength slowly returned but the pain did not lessen, if anything, it continued to increase.
Studying the wounds, Han Fei noticed there were 2 different curses on each of them.
Spider did not know how to remove the Butterfly's curse, he merely used the kindness in his heart to strengthen the curse on Han Fei to counter the Butterfly.
The sins and sins of the whole Cattle Alley were shouldered by Spider alone, he only used a small part of it on Han Fei's wounds.
Han Fei was in so much pain that he rolled in the blood.
Seeing how energetic Han Fei was, Spider ignored him and turned to the doctor and the reader.
The black blood vessels on his heart were removed but the strange patterns that looked like butterfly wings could not be removed no matter how hard he tried. It was as if they had melded into one with the kindness in his heart.
The heart was embedded in Spider's chest but Spider did not dare to use the power of the heart. He was afraid that the butterfly patterns would grow all over his body.
His cracked chest slowly recovered. Spider was reborn from the flesh and blood of the pig-faced monsters. His body slowly returned to normal. Every movement he made affected this dirty world.
His facial features became clearer. Spider stood in the ruins of the House of the Butcher, surrounded by 3 scary figures.
As the manager, he represented the upper limit of Cattle Alley. Even in his current state, no one could defeat him here.
But if the 3 figures attacked him together, the situation would be completely different.
Therefore, the final outcome did not depend on Spider but Xu Qin who had gone out of control.
If Xu Qin joined forces with the doctor and the reader to fight for Spider's heart to become the next manager of Cattle Alley, Spider would be in grave danger.
But if Xu Qin gave up on Spider and attacked any of the reader and doctor, the situation would be completely different.
The doctor and the reader realized this as well. When the reader turned back to look at Xu Qin, the mad woman who shared the same origin as the curse was already charging at her.
There was no reason, no reason at all. The reader persona had no idea why Xu Qin would suddenly attack her. The only thing she noticed was that Xu Qin was staring at the book she was holding. It was as if she was looking at the shattered Han Fei inside the book.
The moment Xu Qin and the reader's personalities clashed, the spider made of flesh and blood attacked the doctor.
All the veins hidden in the ruins, all the corpses and bloodstains on the ground, all obeyed the spider's orders.
The doctor had only pieced his own body together to look like a spider. He had only used the black blood to imitate the spider's ability. The real spider did not care about such things at all. His web was the world.
Once they entered Cattle Alley, no one would be able to escape, not even the butterfly.
Flesh and blood surged. As far as the eye could see, everything was restricting and obstructing the doctor.
Before the spiders even got close, the doctor's body was already covered with a large number of wounds.
To assimilate the spider's kindness, the doctor himself suffered serious injuries. His chest was sliced open by the Blade of Rebirth and one of his legs was amputated by Han Fei.
Facing the spider alone, the doctor had no chance of winning.
Han Fei turned to the reader persona. The latter's situation was not looking good either. Xu Qin who had lost control was like a moving source of curse. The blood sacrifice of the 13 table knives had opened a door of unimaginable terror.
Both sides were suppressed. The outsiders who had been recruited by the doctor knew things were not going well. They scrambled to escape from the House of the Butcher.
More and more flesh and blood gathered on the spider's body. Thick veins connected the spider to the ruins. Blood flooded Cattle Alley, drowning the doctor's last shred of hope.
His ferocious and sharp legs were grabbed by pairs of hands in the blood. His huge body seemed to have sunk into a quagmire. The more he struggled, the deeper he sank.
The doctor was a very rare large Lingering Spirit but he was no match for the manager spider at Cattle Alley. Everything around him weaved into a giant web and eventually he was trapped.
Every manager had their own unique manager talent. The spider's talent was the web. He could weave everything he saw and everything he owned into an invisible web. He had absolute control over Cattle Alley. Every blade of grass and tree here was stained with his blood.
There was no screaming, no hysteria, the spider's way of killing was filled with a unique kind of peace and gentleness.
'No wonder the people from the Ziggurat dare not come here. Before the spider's self-consciousness disintegrates, they'll be seeking death if they enter.' Han Fei was envious of the spider's power. Compared to his talent in summoning Huang Yin, the spider's power was much stronger, at least that was the case for now.
The legs on the doctor's back were removed. He was still struggling in the blood. The spider looked at the man silently. There was no pity in his eyes, no joy from revenge, no excitement. It was as if he had seen this ending many times already.
Amid the doctor's roars and growls, his body was slowly dragged deeper into the blood. What was left of the doctor was a mask with a serial number.
Other than the doctor, the blood also flowed into the room of the reader's persona, melting the bodies of the other personas.
Spider's eyes scanned the masks before landing on the reader persona who was still fighting with Xu Qin.
His current expression was very strange, as if he was lonely, but also as if he couldn't understand.
In Spider's original world, the reader persona was his only friend. They listened to each other and their souls resonated.
But at some point in time, the reader persona started to change.
Spider slowly realized he did not have a friend, he was merely ill.
He started to take the medicine, undergo therapy and psychological intervention. He adjusted his daily routine, hoping to say goodbye to everyone at some point.
But the Butterfly's intervention ruined everything. Even though Spider did not kill anyone in real life and did not break any laws, he knew he was covered in blood. He had killed 8 of himself.
Other people would have a hard time understanding Spider, even his psychiatrist could not walk into his heart. Spider had always been alone.
After the doctor disappeared, the reader persona knew everything was over. Struggling would only be a waste of energy.
"Spider, your luck is always so good but do you really plan to spend the rest of your life at Cattle Alley?"
After evading Xu Qin's curse, the reader persona grabbed the uncovered book with both hands. Then she tore the book open and tossed the pages upwards.
The first few pages of the book were filled with Han Fei and the following pages were filled with different ways of Spider's death. Each way of death was a venomous curse!
"You have a pair of eyes that can see the truth, that is why I brought you with me to witness everything. We could have been partners but you chose to fight with me from real life into my consciousness. Is everything you've done just for the last shred of humanity? "
All the curses on the book were triggered. The patterns on the reader persona's face started to spread as if trying to detonate the body.
The flesh and blood gathered and the outline of Spider's face became clearer. He took a deep breath and stared at the reader persona for a long time before asking the question that had been buried in his heart.
"When you first appeared in my consciousness, were you the reader? Or the Butterfly? "
In the end, the reader persona did not answer Spider's question. Her soul exploded and triggered all the curses inside the book.
In the blood mist, half of the blue butterfly's wing flew towards Spider's heart at an alarming speed.
The reader persona wanted to send the other half of her pattern into Spider's heart!
"Actually, I have an answer in my heart as well." Spider had regained his rationality but looking at the incoming butterfly, he did something that would appear crazy in the eyes of others. He sliced open the healing flesh and pulled out the half heart of kindness.
Like admiring the world's most beautiful jade, he studied the pattern on his heart.
"The first reader was you but unfortunately, we've all gone mad."
He mumbled to himself. It was not until the blue butterfly reached him that Spider raised his head.
His hand that gripped his heart tightened. Before the blue butterfly could touch it, Spider crushed his heart with his own hands!
The pattern of the butterfly remained in the dried flesh. The kindness and humanity that remained in the heart was delivered to Xu Qin by Spider.
The layers of curses were pierced through. Xu Qin, who was already out of control, grimaced in pain. Her eyes kept changing as if she was struggling internally.
After gifting Xu Qin the kindness, Spider used the last of his power to gather all the blood water he could control into a tidal wave. He slammed it against the ruins of the House of the Butcher.
Blood rain fell from the sky. The half butterfly wing was crushed and half of the curses around Xu Qin were washed away.
Spider was still standing in the middle of the building but the House of the Butcher was no longer in his world.
"I've been searching and thinking alone but in the end, I was trapped in the world that I saw. I was bound by the spider web that I weaved. Thankfully, you've opened an opening for me." Spider pulled Han Fei out from the blood water. He looked at Han Fei who was in a sorry state. Seeing the humanity that shone around Han Fei, his eyes were filled with envy. "You've given me a new answer on how to survive in despair."
After sending Han Fei to Xu Qin's side, Spider's body became dim and thin.
His hands reached into the blood water. Moments later, pieces of the heart appeared in his palms.
The pieces in his left hand were rotting and putrid while the pieces in his right were bleeding red.
