The fruity smoke curled up again, Moral propped himself up and sat up from the bed. Corberos was afraid that he would catch a cold, so he covered him with a thin quilt. Passion is indeed the best way to relieve exhaustion and pain. Morality took a deep breath of hookah, turned his head, and exchanged a lingering kiss with Corberus.
The man's arm was wrapped around his waist like a protection. Before the aftertaste dissipated, Morality coughed twice, and he could clearly feel that he was terribly weak.
This weakness first appeared ten months ago. At that time, Dao Dao didn't understand why, until one day not long after, he felt a call from a distant place.
At that time, it was when Cui Zuojing returned the goodwill fragments recovered in Hameln to Fu Zhe.
The soul power of Fu Zhe, who recovered his goodwill, was strengthened, so he had induction with other fragments, and because the power of the body was stronger than other fragments, Fu Zhe was also invisible, slowly absorbing the souls that escaped from other fragments. energy.
This kind of absorption is very slow and small, and it is difficult for Fu Zhe to notice, but it is still enough for the fragmented morality to discover that the most obvious change is that his body is gradually weakening.
But at that time morality didn't understand why.
Until he discovered the highly regarded supervisor Hughes, who turned out to be a clone of "The Mystery of Worms".
All of Moral's memories originated from a certain day nine years ago. He had no clear impression of what happened before that. He didn't know his name, age, where he came from, who his relatives were, and what he was going to do.
The beginning of his clear memory was that he managed the place as the owner of the casino. He used the name of the casino as his name, so from then on, people called him Mr. Mo.
He possesses powers that no one else in this world possesses, creating illusions, manipulating space, and even more, affecting human "emotions".
Director Hughes has been by his side from the very beginning, helping him manage the casino's affairs. Morality has always thought that there is nothing wrong with this, but as time goes by, he gradually realizes a terrible problem - this world, is it? Does it really exist
One day, he used the power of space to break open a door, and with the determination to never return, he walked in morally, and he entered a completely different world, as if the casino was the center of his world, the center of this world. , is a gladiatorial arena.
He met Moore, the owner of the arena. Moore, who had been in this world for more than ten years, told him that these small worlds they were in were just special "boxes".
Morality understands, but he doesn't care much about whether the world was created by other people. Anyway, he just needs to focus on his own life.
So he used the power of space to travel in various worlds, using his ability to build bridges between different boxes, to attract more guests to the casino, and also to have some fun for himself.
It has been like this for six years, and the appearance of a person broke his peaceful and lonely life.
In the arena, he saw the arrogance and the extreme desire for freedom in the eyes of men, and he bought him and named him Corberus.
Originally, an ordinary slave was nothing to him at all, until Morality discovered that Corberus had other ideas about him, and he did not intend to respond. He stopped that thought.
He seemed to have succeeded, and Corberus had not been around for a while, but Morality felt a strange emptiness—he had grown accustomed to the man's careful gaze with admiration and longing, and enjoyed it.
Who doesn't enjoy being sought after and adored? Every time he saw Corberus kneeling at his feet in a respectful manner, his moral mood would be very good.
He is so mean.
Dao Dao originally planned to hang Corberus for a few days before making the next step, gradually bringing him back closer. Morality is still nostalgic for that feeling.
But an accident disrupted his overall plan, and he found that Hughes, the supervisor who had been working in the casino from the beginning, was not as simple as it seemed.
Hughes boarded the elevator to the top floor in the middle of the night, entered his room, and tried to "devour" him, but unfortunately, not only did he fail, he was also caught by morality.
Morality locked Hughes in a basement built with space power, used some means of torture, and learned all the truth about him—
He is just the soul fragment of a person who was cursed by the successor named "The Mystery of Worms" many years ago and lost the most important three pieces of soul. Because the power of that person's soul is too strong, the three fragments are scattered all over the place. Formed an independent consciousness, they never know the past, but they have part of the power of the body and are very powerful. And "The Mystery of Worms" was not satisfied either. It placed its own clones around the three fragments, hoping to devour them one day and gain their abilities.
Hughes is the clone placed beside him in "The Mystery of Worms", and his name is Fu Zhe's morality.
The moral heart of knowing the truth is like a mess. He can't imagine that he who has an independent personality is just a fragment of a person. He can create illusions because of Fu Zhe's ability. Affecting other people's "emotions" is because he himself represents human morality.
Daode returned to the casino, and finally realized where the sudden exhaustion and weakness came from these days—the energy of his soul was being absorbed by Fu Zhe imperceptibly.
This kind of weakness gradually became serious and made Morality unbearable. Whenever he was the most uncomfortable, he would unconsciously think that it would be great if he could have someone by his side now.
This is human instinct. As a social animal, people always want help and warmth from others when they are most vulnerable, and morality is not exempt.
But the only one who stayed by his side all the time was Angela, the personal maid. Daode didn't think that such a little girl could comfort him. He thought of Corberus.
If he called that person up, he would be so happy that he would do whatever he asked him to do
He is so despicable that he not only enjoys it, but also recklessly exploits other people's feelings for him.
He is moral.
Daode only found it ironic, but in the end, he still called someone to call Corberus.
The man really couldn't resist his temptation, his pain was indeed relieved, the warm embrace made Daode finally feel that he was no longer like a rootless piaoping, maybe one day he would be taken back and become a part of Fu Zhe again, but At least, there is one person who will remember himself.
That day, when Corberus kissed him when he was in love, Morality gave him a slap, not missing the grievance and anger in the eyes of the other party. How did he feel at that time? Guilt? Maybe.
But Kerberos still didn't show his emotions. He approached him so humbly, even if he was trampled under his feet as a tool, he was happy.
Morality softened.
He decided to be a little nicer to Corberus.
Passion, like hookah, can only temporarily relieve the pain caused by weakness. Morality understands that he must make up for the lost soul power. Since "The Mystery of Worms" can be enhanced by devouring him, he can also absorb it in turn, right
So Daode went back to the basement cell and absorbed part of the soul energy of "The Mystery of Worms". He didn't devour it all. If he thinks right, the clone with the same tyrannical soul power can repair itself after suffering minor damage. , what morality needs is a reserve grain that can continue to feed him.
Sure enough, Moral's body was much better, and since then, every time he felt weak, he would go to "Worm Mystery" to absorb some soul power. Morality set up a space barrier around the avatar to cut off the "Worm Mystery" body and its induction, so that there is no risk of being found by "Worm Mystery".
Having found a way to relieve himself from the source, Morality has not stopped contacting Corberus, and he has become obsessed with this feeling. He was like a small animal frozen in ice and snow. Corberus rescued him and warmed him with the most sincere sincerity. Even if he was frostbitten, he stubbornly refused to give up.
Even ice cubes will melt, and morality is not made of ice cubes, he just isn't used to showing his true feelings.
He was so greedy for the warmth that Corberus gave him, just as Corberus was greedy for him.
It took seven months for morality to go from just treating Corberus as a tool to actually taking him in his heart and treating him as someone he cared about.
He taught Kerberos to read, read, and gave him the mathematical principles behind the gambling that underpin the existence of casinos, and how to get along better with others.
In the end, Morality gave him the key he carried, and gave all the remaining energy of the "Worm Mystery" clone to Kerberos. He only hoped that when the final judgment came, Kerberos would also have enough energy. The power to live well in a world without him.
The perception of the maze being broken clearly entered his heart, and there were a total of four breaking points. Sure enough, with the strength of these people, the combined power of illusion, space and morality is not enough to completely trap them.
"Corberus." Daode looked at the man, and Corberus's honey-colored eyes were the same as when they first met him, "Aren't you always curious about my name?"
"My name is Fu Zhe. To be precise, I am a part of him and his lost morality." It seems that it is not difficult to tell these secrets buried in the heart.
Corberus' shocked reaction was just as he had imagined, morality was amused, his mood suddenly relaxed, and he continued to say slowly: "As you can see, there are many worlds in this world, and I took you to them. Those and here are parallels to each other, and beyond these worlds, there is a larger world."
"Our world in that world is just one small box after another. All historical backgrounds, scenes and people who appear are all designed by a special existence. These worlds are created just to test Those in the larger world, those who are called pilgrims."
Corberos was so shocked that he was speechless for a while, but he quickly reacted and frowned: "I don't care, as long as the master is, I am where I am, and what the world looks like has nothing to do with me. Are that Mr. Lin just now, and his companions, all pilgrims?"
"Yes, to be precise, they are the ones who came to take me back." Dao paused and continued, "I probably know what they want to do, they desperately need complete space power, and I am a fragment of Fu Zhe. , with some of his power on him, so it must be taken back."
"Recall means..."
"I will become a part of Fu Zhe as a moral, and since then, Mr. Mo will no longer exist."
Kerberos was shocked and immediately said, "I won't let them take you away."
Dao Dao smiled: "If I didn't have you, I didn't plan to fight much, because as a fragment, my soul energy will always be absorbed by the body, so it will become weaker and weaker, even if there is nourishment from outside forces, At most, we can only slow down the process of debility, and we should probably be one in the first place."
He raised his hand and stroked Corberus' cheek, sighed softly, and said in a low voice, "But now, in order not to leave you alone, I've decided to try my best to resist."
"You are the only one in this world that I truly miss."
Kerberos opened his mouth, but he couldn't say a word. This was the first time the master had confessed to him, but it happened at such a time.
Corberus' sadness was so strong that even if he didn't say it, Daode felt a pain in his heart, but he just smiled slightly, and placed a light kiss on the corner of the man's lips, saying:
"Okay, get ready to welcome our friends."
