Chapter 48 Desire and shame

The anti-charm amulet given to me by the Blue Bird has no effect on this charm dream. In the final analysis, the real strength of the Blue Bird is fighting, not making a talisman; while the Successor's strength is charm. Using a talisman to deal with her is to compare with others' strengths. Perhaps this talisman is useful to deal with the ordinary charm of the Successor, but now this dream is obviously a trick that the Successor is extremely prepared to do with all his strength. The anti-charm amulet turns into charcoal in the confrontation in an instant.

However, even the amulet turned into coke was enough to make me realize that I was in a dream.

At the same time, I also understood the succubus's ideas. I'm afraid she can't understand what kind of opposite sex I'm interested in, but she should think so, and it doesn't matter if she can't understand. Even if she doesn't understand, I understand it myself. Therefore, she weaves this dream, and "what I want to see" will appear. She wants me to charm myself, and the flesh in front of me is the "it" in my memory.

But she made a mistake after all.

What really charms me is the thing that even I can't understand.

During the five years I have passed with "it", I can't tell the truth of "it" and my own sincerity.

The physical bodies in front of me are only things that I can tell, especially when I realize that this is a dream, these physical bodies look even more empty and have a look. What is contained in them is not "it", but the hopeless human nature of me.

I closed my eyes silently, and when I opened my eyes again, the bodies disappeared. A black figure appeared opposite me. Just like a demon in a dream, his whole body was black, just like a shadow transforming from a flat surface to a three-dimensional one.

"Are you going to wake up from your dream again?" He could speak and made the same voice as me.

"If I'm here to drag on it, the middleman will take the opportunity to kill me." I said.

He gave a negative answer, "No. No matter how long you have passed in this dream, it will be a moment for the outside world."

"Do you think I would believe this?" I asked, "is the incarnation of succubus magic?"

"I am you. You have already realized that only what you want to see will appear in this dream. The reason why I appear is because you don't want to wake up." He said, "At the same time, you also understand that what I say is true, and you cannot be aware of such a life-related matter. The passage of time in a different space depends on the feeling of time, and this dream specializes this nature. You may still die at the hands of the middleman, but before you die, you can stay in the dream for as long as you have to die."

His voice gradually became bewitching, "Don't you want to die in the battle with the evil enemy? The situation is just right now. The story of the demon Li Duo has already ended in this heavy rain. Even if it continues, it is nothing more than a dog-tailed marten. You might as well stay on this last page forever and enjoy yourself until you are tired of it before closing."

"In that case, the two outside will die." I said.

"At the same time, you will become unable to recover that hand... This is your real and selfish idea, right?" he said, "What's the use of recovering that kind of thing? The dead will not be resurrected. Even if you can be resurrected, you don't want to return to your past self. It's better to stay here, which can satisfy all your desires without hurting anyone."

"You actually regret it very much, why didn't you listen to the blue bird's words, why did you wake up from that dream... How great would it be if you continue to be a ignorant college student Li Duo. You can clearly become a witch hunter in your dream, fight against those unforgivable bad guys and monsters, and finally become the hero you dream of in the flowers and applause. When you die, you are satisfied because you have not done anything that is ashamed of your heart." He continued, "but now,"

So what? Li Duo, a college student with a clean wealth, has become a demon with a bad record, and has made himself dirty. What sins are so serious that he has no face to live, and he is voluntarily not being brainwashed? He has had enough and does not want to torture himself anymore. All the murders are done by being hypnotized and brainwashed. The victims are all broken and swallowed in their stomachs. Don’t come to me. Even the Security Bureau has acquitted me, so I must be right.”

He "gazed" at me with his facial features, "——These are your true thoughts, aren't they?"

"Yes, these are my true thoughts." I admitted without hesitation, and continued, "But if these thoughts are true, then are you aware of the despicableness of these thoughts and deeply ashamed of them just false things? Is it true that only the desires in my heart are my own things, and the shame in my heart is not my own things? That is not the case. Since you are myself, you cannot deny these words of mine."

"But don't you think it's very tiring to live like this?" he asked. "It's better to stay in your dreams than to be so entangled."

As he said, it will be easy to accept this kind of dream. But my life is absolutely not frivolous enough to rely on this kind of thing. If I can never tell my own entanglements, then I can't tell it. That's also a punishment for me.

Besides, if I want to be greedy for these false things, then I have already chosen to indulge in the Siren's dream.

And the reason why I didn't indulge is that I had been captured by a larger dream. The weird dream of falling alone in the mountains and forests in the middle of the night, staring at the silver moonlight, and having sex with things that look like people but not humans.

However, whether it is the blue bird that keeps me, the Siren's dream, or the "it" dream, there is only one result in the end.

Although I had a thousand words in my mind, in the end, I only said one sentence, "Dreams will wake up."

Hearing this, the demon was silent for a while, and then smiled, "——Can you understand it too?"

"Are you..." Before I could finish speaking, I saw him suddenly summoning the giant shadow axe and slashing at me.

I quickly blocked with the Siren Blade, and at the moment when I blocked this attack, the world in front of me was shattered. From the ruins of the building and the heavy rain, I returned to the previous strange space, and the demon in front of me turned into an intermediary, and the weapon that attacked me changed from the giant shadow axe to the long sword of the bone.

I woke up from my dream.

Everything before was a self-question and self-answer that happened within my consciousness, and the "demon" was nothing more than another thought in my heart. However, I was still willing to believe that I was agreed with someone and gently pushed by him behind me.

"What's going on? Why did he move? Didn't you charm him?" the middleman shouted and retreated.

The succubus stood not far away and shouted in disarray: "He broke through the dream by himself... This is impossible! He should have seen what he wanted most, how could he refuse!"

While chasing the middleman, I observed the surroundings. At this moment, I was just captured by the charming dream. The girl was gone, and Qiao An was still standing not far away and staring at this side in a daze. As for the middleman, it was probably because he saw that I was charmed.

The succubus quickly took out his bone whip and attacked me, and from the other direction, another middleman rushed over to attack me. That was probably the original body - I noticed it so much.

He did not choose to kidnap Qiao An first, probably because even if he was successfully kidnapped, as long as the clone was killed by me, his body would die. The last suicide method could no longer be used on me, and he had no confidence in using hostage tactics on me, so he had to focus on me first... Unexpectedly, he was helped by his own moral disadvantages again.

But, I will win.

From the moment the succubus's charming dream tactic fails, they already lost.

Even if three people besiege me, it would be useless. Although the number of people is superior to me for the time being, the bone knife of the middleman clone and the bone whip of the succubus were soon completely broken in the collision with the Siren Blade, and the situation quickly turned to me. Seeing this, the succubus seemed to finally be unable to bear it and shouted: "I don't want to fight with such an inexplicable guy anymore. If you like to hit yourself, I'm leaving!"

After saying that, she fled in panic and disappeared into the depths of the different space, and nowhere to go again. The middleman shouted anxiously: "Bastard!"

"How did you wake up from the charm? I can't accept it. How can a person like you break free!" He turned to me with gritted teeth, "That charm will let you see what best suits your desires. Anyone who has desires in his heart will indulge, without exception! Do you have no desires? Impossible! What kind of spell did you use!"

"Desire is the real thought that arises from one's own heart." I said to him and to myself, "But isn't shame also the real thought that arises from one's own heart?"

He seemed to be hit by the most sensitive pain point, "Shame? That is just an acquired imposition of society, and it is someone else's thing!"

"Didn't you say it before? No matter who it originally belongs to, as long as it falls to you, it will be your thing." I said, "I want to label someone else's name as usual and return it to society as it is. Can you be considered a perverted murderer?"

"Nonsense!" He became crazy, and the clone next to him suddenly exploded into blood mist, and then turned into a blood-colored phantom that poured into his body, making his whole body swell even more.

Immediately, his explosive power increased dramatically, and he swung the bone sword at me with all his strength at an extremely fast speed.

In the alien space, he could not continue to use the tactics of trapping me into the alien space, nor could he escape from me. The last path left for him was to bet that his own self-sacrifice could defeat me.

The next moment, the winner will be decided.

The middle man's head and bone sword were shattered together, and the headless corpse hit the distant wall along with inertia and could no longer move.

——

Afterwards, I found another half of the mirror fragment from the corpse of the middleman, and found a safe enough place to hide Joan and the others. Then I left the alien space just like what Joe Licorice did last time, and contacted the Security Bureau to rescue them.

The girl who was replaced by the succubus was found near the battlefield. The succubus did not kill her, maybe she wanted to use it in other places, but the unknown plan was gone, and the girl also saved her life by chance.

The security bureau staff responsible for rescuing the two was Qiao Gancao. She opened it again under my escort and entered the entrance and exit of my return to the real world, and equipped the two with some amulets and props that I couldn't understand.

"Although the matter in the different space will disappear after it is transferred to the real world, as long as you inject enough spirituality into the correct method, it can be maintained for a while. As long as you use a normal diet to restore your body during this period, it will be fine. The reason why we breathe air in the different space is that it is okay because such a trace amount of matter can be maintained by the human spirit." Joe Garco explained to me, "Of course, this method is limited. The reason why Persephone can return to the ground half of the year is because she eats very little in the underworld. If a person eats in the different space for too long, he will completely become a resident there, and even if he uses this method, he will not be able to return."

"I have another question," I said, "Why will the spirits and spiritualities in the different space disappear even when they enter the real world?"

"This is a question that even the sorcerers find it difficult to reach consensus, but there is such a controversial statement. All spirituality is actually the outflow of the true spirit, while all matter is the illusion of the true spirit. The spirit body is composed of spirituality, so it will not disappear; while the illusion of matter will disappear because it transfers from one dream to another." She said, "For the true spirit, the alien space is just a dream, while the real world is a larger dream."

"Dream..." I didn't agree.

Joe Abe was shocked by the fact that his sister was a warlock. Although Joe Garco was panicked when he heard that his younger brother was trapped in a different space, he seemed particularly calm at this time, which was really admirable. After a lot of work, we found two mirror fragments in the different space again, using this as a key to return to the real world.

Under the influence of Qiao Licorice's amulets and props, there was nothing wrong with Joan and the girl. We were relieved to see this. But just in case, the two of them had to go to the Security Bureau to do further treatment, and they would have to undergo regular physical examinations for a period of time until they were confirmed that all the alien space substances in their bodies were replaced with real-world substances.

At this point, the incident has come to an end, but there are still many unresolved questions.

For example, why is the middleman so persistent about Qiao An, and what motive does the succubus support the middleman? More importantly, what is the connection between the middleman and the old bones...

It is also very simple to understand these things, just ask the middleman’s memory directly.

Another night, I entered the Siren's dream again.
