Dragon Raja: Reboot

Chapter 147 A World with You (8k+)

The sky was clear and blue in the morning, but after a small earthquake in the afternoon, the sky turned cloudy.

It is now evening, and a light rain is falling.

The streets were nearly deserted, and because of the overcast sky, the lights in the shop windows had been turned on early.

A girl in a white dress walked along the side of the road. When she passed a wedding photography shop, she stopped and tilted her head to look at the gorgeous white wedding dress in the shop window.

She wasn't using an umbrella; raindrops fell on her eyelashes, and her hair was soaked.

She seemed lost in thought, as if she were pondering something.

Until a familiar voice came from behind.

"Young lady, this wedding dress suits you perfectly. Why not take action? How about we have one? Your senior brother will personally fund a grand wedding for you!"

The elusive figure stood behind Xia Mi, his tone devilishly seductive.

The light from the shop window cast two figures side by side.

"Junior sister, why are you carrying a birdcage?" Lu Mingfei's gaze fell on the girl's hand, and his tone suddenly became surprised.

Xia Mi turned around and shoved the birdcage in her hand into Lu Mingfei's hands, saying earnestly, "You can have it if you like. Please don't follow me anymore; are you trying to send me to my funeral?"

"How could that be? I'm here to pick up the bride!" Lu Mingfei said seriously.

"The wedding procession?" the girl asked with a half-smile. "Then why is it you who's coming?"

"I'm fast, so I came to scout out the situation first."

"If either I or Chu Zihang had to die, who would you save?"

The moment Xia Mi uttered her sharp question, the atmosphere instantly froze.

"Junior sister, isn't this a bit unnecessary?" Lu Mingfei said with a wry smile.

"But I'm not your junior sister." The girl smiled radiantly, as beautiful as a summer flower. She raised her head haughtily and said, "I am Jormungandr, the Dragon King. I watched your throne fall from the heavens, and the flames burned for seven days and seven nights. The one who led the kings to bury you made me King of the Earth and the Mountains. I am your enemy!"

Tit for tat.

Lu Mingfei touched his nose and sighed, "What a stubborn girl. Well, a stubborn girl should be paired with a stubborn boy. Have fun."

He waved, carrying the birdcage on his back and the girl on his back, and walked in the opposite direction.

Xia Mi stood expressionless in front of the shop window, her eyes as still and lifeless as a pool of stagnant water.

Her gaze shifted slightly, towards the end of the street, the bare trees, and the distant sky, with dark clouds looming over the city.

She stood under the shop window light, yet the world seemed so dark, perhaps because this world didn't belong to her.

……

……

Lu Mingfei, carrying a birdcage and humming a tune, wandered aimlessly along the street.

It seemed that nothing that had just happened had bothered him at all.

"Brother, you seem to be in a good mood?" Lu Mingze appeared beside him, looking at him curiously. "Aren't you nervous at all? If your senior brother messes up, you might really have to choose between those two."

Lu Mingfei stopped and raised his eyebrows, saying, "How could you mess this up? Don't jinx it. If you really mess it up, you'll be responsible for cleaning up the mess. Even if it's just feeding them medicine, you'll have to get these two into bed and cook the food first."

"Even if we just give them maternity leave, can a forced relationship really be sweet?" Lu Mingze spread his hands helplessly. "Of course we can force them to be together, but that's all they can do. We can't give them love because we don't even know what love is ourselves."

"Remove the word 'they'," Lu Mingfei corrected his brother's mistake. "No one in this world understands love better than me right now. I'm not bragging, but if I were in Japan, I'd be a heartthrob with thousands of admirers."

"Hehe, are you a Casanova in the theoretical field?" Lu Mingze said with a grin. "I've read just as many romance comics as you, and I'm also an expert in relationship analysis on Weibo. If theory counts, then I'm at least a Casanova god."

He shrugged, giving him a look that said, "I won't expose you, brother, because you have absolutely no practical experience."

Lu Mingfei pondered for a moment, then decided to play to his strengths and change the subject, saying, "The night view is nice tonight, let's add some lights."

"Alright!" Lu Mingze responded obsequiously, raising his hand and snapping his fingers crisply.

From west to east, both sides of the long street lit up, with streetlights, windows, and neon lights in front of shopping malls creating a dazzling display.

There wasn't a soul in sight on the long street; Lu Mingze had probably used some trick to erase them. It was a quiet city, with no cars passing by. The lights were hazy in the rain, and large leaves were fluttering in the air. It was beautiful and lonely, like a castle in a fairy tale where even the flames were asleep.

"Why erase all the figures?"

"Because there's hardly anyone on the streets. Who wants to wander around on a rainy day? Everyone's going home to their parents. Those with wives go home to hug their wives and snuggle in bed, while those without wives go home to look at their virtual wives for comfort. Everyone's busy."

"I see. Mingze, when you look at this desolate city in the rainy night, do you feel lonely?" Lu Mingfei asked softly.

"What's wrong, brother? Are you feeling lonely again?" Lu Mingze tilted his head and looked at him, squeezing his hand tightly, as if that could convey warmth to his brother.

"What kind of person would live all alone in this world and not feel lonely?"

"...Brother, are you talking about your past self?"

"Perhaps there are other brats like me," Lu Mingfei said, looking down. "Like my senior brother."

"Your senior brother isn't lonely. He still has his mother and father, although the latter only lives on in his memories. But some people, even if they can only live on in memories, can give others endless courage and motivation. And what do you have, brother?"

Lu Mingze stood on tiptoe and tenderly smoothed the corners of his eyebrows.

"Me? I'm not actually alone, it's just that I didn't realize it before." Lu Mingfei let Lu Mingze stroke his eyebrows, his smile warm.

"Brother, is it because your senior brother and Xia Mi's matter touched your heartstrings? Why are you being so sentimental again?" the little devil said helplessly.

No, it's because of you.

"Huh? Me?"

Without answering the little devil's question, Lu Mingfei stopped and stood at the entrance of an alley, looking back around.

At the same time and in the same place, I did not encounter the same person as in my previous life.

In his previous life, right here, under the little devil's meticulous planning, he encountered a girl in a white dress who looked somewhat like Chen Wenwen, along with a group of thugs who were harassing that girl.

Without thinking, he shouted "Stop!"

Looking back now, although I got a beating afterward, at least I did the right thing and didn't make a decision that would make me hate myself.

Even if you get beaten up and lose face at the time, it's far better than missing the right choice because of cowardice, which leads to subsequent self-examination.

Humans are often not honest enough for various reasons, and as a result, they lose some of the most important things and people in their lives. By the time they regret it, it's already too late. The girl who once haunted your dreams and whom you shared mutual affection with may already be in someone else's arms, or perhaps...

It is a cold cemetery.

"You didn't block Chen Wenwen's calls to me, did you?"

"Of course not. What's wrong, brother? Are you planning to get back together with your old flame?"

"No, it's just... I suddenly feel a little happy."

"Happy?"

"Hmm. Perhaps it's because I've had a second chance and finally changed some things, instead of blindly repeating the same mistakes." Lu Mingfei revealed genuine joy, turned to look in Xia Mi's direction, and said softly, "Of course, the main course is yet to come, and I look forward to their joint answer."

"Brother, why are you so fixated on the love story between your senior brother and your junior sister?"

Lu Mingfei slowly closed his eyes, opened his arms to embrace this cold world, and whispered:

"Did you hear that? Behind every lit window, there are people: a man with the woman who loves him, and a woman with the man who loves her. They love each other, confide in each other, and grow old together."

"If there are so many couples in this world who love each other for a lifetime, why can't it be them?"

"Why...can't it be us?"

He opened his eyes, his golden pupils blazing with a fierce torch that threatened to ignite and overturn the entire world.

He seemed to be asking the little devils, or perhaps he was asking someone who didn't exist there, yet always kept their eyes on them.

Lu Mingze remained silent for a long time before finally raising his head. "Brother, I understand. Like I said, do what you want to do, and I will support you unconditionally."

"Speaking of which... what's the deal with this parrot?"

Lu Mingfei paused, looking down at the myna bird in the cage with a puzzled expression, wondering why his junior sister was carrying this birdcage and walking aimlessly down the street.

Lu Mingze also turned his gaze towards them.

Seemingly sensing the gazes of the two terrifying creatures, the parrot stiffened and shrank into the corner, trembling as it said, "I might as well marry him. This idiot looks alright..."

The Lu brothers' expressions suddenly became strange.

"Brother...it seems you've stolen tonight's main character away." Lu Mingze's tone was inexplicable.

Lu Mingfei stared blankly at the parrot, wondering where his junior sister had gotten such a strange bird.

No... we have to get tonight's star in the spotlight!

……

……

Chu Zihang stopped in his tracks.

The shadows of the fluorescent tubes were cast on the marble floor. He heard the torrential rain pounding on the roof.

Wangfujing subway station is on the second basement level, and the underground shopping mall of Oriental Plaza is on the first basement level. He is now standing between the steps of the first and second basement levels. Even if it is pouring rain outside, it should not be hitting the roof above his head.

But the sound of rain was still clear to the ear.

The sound of patrolling security guards could be heard from all directions, but all the footsteps were rapidly receding into the distance, as if they were running away from this space.

The fluorescent lights flickered, and the air was filled with a buzzing sound of electricity.

At this moment, rain started to leak from above. The icy rainwater came from all directions, pouring into the roof, the ground, the passageway, the vents—basically, everywhere you could think of. The water flowed calmly along the marble floor, turning into tiered waterfalls on the steps.

Chu Zihang wiped the rain off his face, took the Holy Sword from his tennis bag, and slowly walked down.

He heard the sound, coming from deep underground, the vibration of the railway tracks.

If I'm not mistaken, he's found the right place.

He arrived at the platform, where the ground was shaking and blinding lights shone from the deep tunnel.

With a screeching sound as the train rubbed against the rails, it pulled into the station and stopped in front of Chu Zihang. The rusty doors between the old-fashioned carriages were slowly pulled open, making a sound of rust peeling off.

The train pulled into the station the moment he arrived, as if it had been waiting for him.

Chu Zihang remained silent for a while, then picked up the holy sword and entered the carriage. The carriage door slowly closed behind him, and the train entered the deep tunnel.

This was a completely uneventful journey.

The train successfully stopped at its destination.

Chu Zihang disembarked from the train like any other passenger, standing on the spindle-shaped concrete platform, which extended into the tracks like a pier into the sea.

He silently gazed up at the prehistoric remnant—an ancient dragon that seemed to be one with the rock face—whose appearance was both fierce and majestic, yet sharp.

No words can describe his ancient and majestic body; he was clearly a reptile, but far more beautiful than any other reptile.

However, that beauty was a dark, majestic, and profound beauty, inspiring awe. Its entire body was covered in bluish-black scales that opened and closed sequentially from front to back, producing a metallic clanging sound. Its bony face carried a monarchical majesty.

But this magnificent creature was now cowering, its claws digging at the ground, cautiously retreating to a corner. It lowered its head until it was almost touching the ground, its eyes warily scanning Chu Zihang, a low growl emanating from its throat.

Like a guard dog, it stays alert to any outsiders.

"You…" Gu Long spoke, his voice deep and authoritative, yet his gaze was incredibly cautious, "Are you my sister's friend?"

elder sister?

Chu Zihang suddenly remembered the life experiences Xia Mi had described to him on the train.

During that period, she had a mentally challenged older brother and a pair of parents, but it was later proven that most of this was a lie. However, some things seemed to be true: she really did have a mentally challenged older brother who liked to call her "sister."

The girl was as cautious and wary as this ancient dragon when facing anyone, introducing herself by mixing her true self with false lies.

She was afraid to open up to people completely, yet she longed to communicate with them.

"Here you go." Long flapped his membranous wings, and a blue bag landed between him and Chu Zihang.

It was a bag of potato chips.

"My sister said that when guests come, we should treat them well. Potato chips are the best thing in the world, so I'll treat you."

Long still stared at Chu Zihang with great caution.

Chu Zihang hesitated for a moment, then bent down to pick up the bag of potato chips and nodded his thanks to Long.

Seemingly sensing that he meant no harm, or perhaps because he accepted his gift, Gu Long's wary gaze gradually relaxed, replaced by curiosity.

He curiously observed Chu Zihang from all angles, like a child who had never seen the world meeting a foreign friend, curiously observing his blond hair and blue eyes.

"You have your sister's mark on you. Did your sister come back with you?" Gu Long asked cautiously.

Chu Zihang sized up the prehistoric mythical beast.

It was 30 or 40 meters long, but that was not its full length; only the front half of the dragon was exposed, while the back half was integrated with the rock wall.

To be precise, the latter half of this dragon's life was still in skeletal form, with its thick spine gradually petrifying from front to back, eventually connecting with the stone wall. This thing is like a legendary immortal creature, half of its body showing the appearance of life and half of its body showing the appearance of death, life and death cleverly integrated into one, seemingly with some kind of religious mystery.

But that cutesy tone...

I wonder if they are over five years old?

"My sister isn't back yet, let's... watch TV."

He actually brought out a television, an old-fashioned 18-inch color TV, in a heavy, large box. Clearly, this was one of his important toys; he handled it with care, even being unusually careful when connecting the power cord with his wingtip. The screen's light illuminated the dragon's black scales, and the dragon rested its jaws on the platform.

Chu Zihang felt both bewildered and relieved. Sure enough, most dragons were this simple-minded; no wonder their rule was overthrown.

The dragon suddenly let out a deep, powerful roar, spread its black wings, and stood up, its golden eyes narrowing tightly as it stared unblinkingly into the dark tunnel behind Chu Zihang.

Chu Zihang's heart skipped a beat; he heard footsteps coming from inside the tunnel.

Sure enough, the girl in the white dress emerged from the darkness, like a unicorn shimmering with light from a fairy tale.

Seeing the girl he longed to see actually appear before him, Chu Zihang gripped his sword tightly, and his Blood Explosion silently materialized.

The bloodline is further purified, high-pressure blood flows through the whole body, and incredible subtle changes penetrate into every cell.

A potent, intoxicating power flowed through his veins. Even knowing it was a forbidden technique that would shorten his life, he was still intoxicated by its unparalleled power. His exhausted heart pounded like a war drum once more, squeezing out the hot blood of a dragon.

His body was instantly covered with thin, bluish-gray scales, his knuckles swelled, his facial bones protruded, his golden eyes seemed to be burning, and the fine scales all over his body opened and closed, his knotted muscles bulging out like iron tendons.

At this moment, he was no longer human.

Hybrids only possess the appearance of dragons and have the strength to rival pure-blooded dragons.

……

...Are you in such a hurry? Without even saying a word?

……

The last trace of a smile vanished from the girl's face.

Her gaze was dark, like those shadowy corners that never get to bask in the sunlight throughout their lives.

The same change occurred in her, but even more thoroughly than in Chu Zihang.

The sharp scales slowly unfurled, tearing the girl's white dress to shreds as if shattering her last dream.

There was only silence in her eyes.

She hissed in an ancient language, and a new incantation was activated, rapidly expanding the domain. Intense ionization and magnetization effects appeared within the domain; the rails melted, and molten metal droplets floated, swirling around Jormungandr. The luminous droplets collided and burned continuously, impurities turning to ash and falling away, while the remaining droplets grew ever brighter.

Chu Zihang's "Monarch Flame" also ignited, and its domain continued to expand.

At the edge where the two realms meet, a distinct layer of energy is visible, with hundreds of thousands of volts of white-purple static electricity and thousands of degrees of black fire serpents swimming across it. The bright areas are blindingly bright, while the dark areas resemble black holes.

They remained silent, yet seemed to be at odds, staring at each other in a cold and silent manner.

Both pushed off the ground simultaneously, and the dragons' uniquely curved knee joints unleashed extraordinary power, causing their figures to disappear in a high-speed movement.

then.

The battle ended in an instant.

Chu Zihang let the sharp dragon claws pierce his heart, but simply reached out and hugged the girl who had crashed into his arms. His chin rested gently and naturally on the top of her head, and the familiar fragrance filled his nostrils.

"...Aren't you going to resist?"

"I promised you I would let you win, I'm sorry I broke my promise last time."

"...Oh, I see. You're about to die. Is there anything you want to say before you die?" the girl whispered in his arms, just like the girl at the Chicago train station who was begging a rich man to take care of her.

"Yes. I bought a house in my hometown, installed two swing chairs on the balcony, and also installed the smart home system you like. I hope you can come."

"...You really can't even fool a girl properly. That company's appointments are booked until next year. Or are you trying to use money to pave the way again? Money can't buy the girl you like."

The girl whispered in his ear, her tone helpless, a helplessness directed at both the boy and herself.

Why did I still waver when it was such a clumsy and ridiculous lie?

That afternoon in the library, the girl suddenly said that she had her eye on a personalized smart home system. She was really trying to create her own home and invited the boy to go with her to help her make a decision. The boy agreed, but later the girl realized that it seemed like she would never have the chance to realize it in this lifetime.

"I didn't contact the vendors. I went to the equipment department and cooperated on several experiments. Remember? I went to the equipment department during the hearing. The reward is whatever you like. The book says to surprise girls, so I never told you. I said a long time ago that some things don't require desperate effort, you just need to change your perspective. But if some things can only be obtained by desperate effort, I can only choose to desperately effort, because I have nothing to begin with, especially after you left."

He held his girl tightly and whispered in her ear.

"I'm sorry, just like you said on the Ferris wheel, I shouldn't have waited for you to speak first."

The girl in his arms was stiff, and that forbidden emotion overflowed in his chest once again.

"I'm sorry, but there are some things I have to tell you. I've seen you touching a sea turtle through the glass of an aquarium, I've seen your face reflected in the changing lights of a movie theater, I've seen you on streets covered with fallen sycamore leaves, and I've seen you in the crowd at the basketball court..."

"That's enough..."

"So I think I might..."

"I've said enough!" The girl gripped his clothes tightly, burying her face in his neck, roaring like a female dragon. "I told you, didn't I? I told you, didn't I? There's no need to apologize for this! Why do you apologize for every single word? What do you owe me?! We don't owe each other anything! And those kinds of words are beyond the comprehension of someone with your blockhead, right? Who made them up for you? Senior Brother Lu? Fingel? Or the vice principal? What are you trying to do? Are you trying to trick me into coming back..."

"I'm sorry, I can't imagine a future without you."

The burning emotions surging in his chest finally burst forth.

All barriers crumbled under that unvarnished, intense emotion, revealing a bewildered figure behind.

The world seemed to freeze in an instant.

Time stands still here, silent for a long time.

The wind that had been blowing through the tunnel stopped.

The giant dragon, its claws outstretched, lay prone on the ground, staring blankly at the figure of the sister and the boy embracing.

Another figure stood in front of the birdcage, reaching out to tease the trembling parrot inside.

The world is so quiet.

It was so quiet that you could clearly hear the two hearts pounding violently in their chests, so close together.

Those were hearts that had crossed 8.6 light-years, transcending everything to embrace each other tightly.

"To say something like that... humans are so cunning."

The girl, who couldn't tell whether she was Jormungandr or Xia Mi, closed her eyes amidst the murmurs that lingered in her ears.

She buried herself completely in the boy's arms, like a mole greedily craving sunlight for the first time, even if it might be fatal.

Why don't you ask me if I've been lying to you all along?

I don't want to hear your lies.

"How cunning! I had all the answers prepared."

"Sorry, I think I'm a little tired..."

"Then get some sleep. I'll be by your side."

"When I wake up, will you be the first thing I see?"

"Okay, okay, go get some sleep, and everything will be back to normal when you wake up."

"One last question... You are... Xia Mi, right?" The man lying in the girl's arms raised his eyes, his pupils dimmed from blood loss.

"It's me, Xia Mi. I'm your girl." She tilted her head and smiled sweetly.

"No... I wanted to tell you that whether it's Xia Mi or not doesn't matter anymore, I will accept you..."

He didn't finish saying everything he had prepared before he fainted due to massive blood loss.

The girl stared at him blankly, his last words swirling in her mind.

Her delicate fingers gently smoothed the boy's still-frowning brow as he murmured, "Silly boy, you can't even finish explaining the final, decisive move..."

She looked at the boy lying in her arms as if asleep, a slight smile curving her lips, revealing her dimples and radiant joy.

Her smile was so beautiful, like an angel descended to earth for the boy.

Why don't you ask me if I've been lying to you all along?

If you ask me if everything I said before was a lie, I will tell you yes.

Whether it's my past, my present, or my aspirations for the future, it's all a lie.

The tatami mats, the swing chairs, the floor-to-ceiling windows, the bathtub, the lavender-patterned curtains and tablecloths—everything was a lie I created.

The biggest lie in all of this is that "Xia Mi" has eyes only for you.

But why did you take it so seriously?

You should know that there is no love in the bloodline of dragons.

You should know that the distance between us is far more than just bloodline.

You should understand that there is no girl named Xia Mi in this world.

You seem to understand everything, yet you also seem to understand nothing.

In that case...

I would believe these lies too!

……

Tears streamed down her face, but they could no longer extinguish the burning emotions surging in her heart.

The world was silent.

Lu Mingfei carried a flower basket and circled around them.

He looked up at the sky, casually took a handful of rose petals from the flower basket in his arms, and scattered them into the air, where they slowly landed around them.

The flower basket in his hand was like the four-dimensional bag of that fat blue cat; no matter how many petals he scattered, they seemed endless. In the end, petals filled the sky, like a sudden blizzard, falling gently and abundantly.

I don't know if this guy is here for a funeral or a wedding.

"Exchange?" he asked again, looking at his senior brother's dying body.

The girl knelt down, reaching out to stroke the face of the boy lying on her lap, her eyes filled with his image.

"The deal is done. Please bring me to his side."

"Then in return, I will take your names." Lu Mingfei shrugged. "From now on, you will no longer be Jormungandr. As for whether you are Xia Mi or not, that's up to you. Anyway, I'm quite happy. I'm glad to see you again."

"Junior Sister".

The man who straddles the past, present, and future stands here, head tilted back, one hand covering his face, softly proclaiming to the world.

The dragon transformation, far surpassing Xia Mi's, suddenly descended, and for a moment it seemed as if a boy was standing behind the man.

They stood back to back, as if they were fighting against the whole world together.

A raging wind that swept across the entire Nibelungen lifted him up, his enormous bone wings unfurling behind him.

He formed a giant cross with his wings and body, standing majestically in the center of heaven and earth with a godlike and demonic presence. His golden pupils displayed two colors: his left eye showed indifference as he coldly observed the world, as if the former ruler of the heavens had briefly returned; his right eye showed unrestrained and mad cruelty, as if he had once played among the mortals!

Two completely different temperaments are perfectly blended in him.

One moment he was like a devil manipulating people's hearts and minds, the next he was a ruthless monarch wielding supreme power.

He reached out, as if grasping the scepter of power once more, and sat down atop the throne high in the heavens, issuing his declaration to the entire world—

"world……"

"Time and space..."

"destiny……"

"The unreachable places will never be reached, but wherever we go, they will shine brightly."

The boundary between reality and illusion has arrived—

The surging alchemical field, capable of overturning the entire Nibelungen, instantly spread throughout the entire area!

"I bestow upon you blood, to refine your soul with blood, and to forge the mark of your bloodline."

He reached out and touched Chu Zihang's forehead. Chu Zihang, who was in a deep sleep, suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were filled with blazing golden flames. His golden eyes had never been so bright and dazzling!

"You treacherous ministers, all shall be exterminated. Today, I will inflict the ultimate punishment upon you and strip you of your true names. From this day forward, the Dragon Kings Jormungandr and Fenrir shall be utterly dead."

He coldly stared at Xia Mi, raised his hand and snatched something from between her eyebrows. In that instant, Xia Mi convulsed in pain, almost dying, as if she had fallen from heaven to hell.

The supreme authority that someone had placed in them has been taken back by its original owner.

After he finished doing all this, he let the gale sweep him back into the air, standing in the void and darkness, his golden pupils flashing with anger, indifference and the coldness of a king's punishment.

He stretched out his hand to the whole world and uttered the sacred words of final judgment:

"Sky, earth, sea... On the day I return to this world, I will fulfill the expectations of this cycle of life; traitors and rebels will all be killed!"

He declared to the world like an unyielding supreme monarch, his majesty radiating to every corner of the world, as if returning to the era of supreme authority that once reigned high above the sky.

But all of this has nothing to do with the boy and girl below.

The girl who decided to be named Xia Mi held the sleeping boy and leaned down to secretly kiss his lips.

She hummed a song, like a nursery rhyme to lull her beloved to sleep.

"We still have plenty of time..."

"You still have a choice..."

"That's our future..."

……

……

This was the autumn of 2010, and those carefully prepared lies were ultimately shut down by the boy before they could even leave the door.

Just like the terrible fate ordained for this autumn, before the compass of destiny stopped, someone reached out and grabbed the pointer of the wheel, forcibly turning it towards the realm of happiness.

As someone said, there are so many people in this world who love each other and stay together for life, so why can't you be among them?

Of course, it could be us.

I dozed off a bit in the middle, but luckily I woke up suddenly. Strictly speaking, I only slept for two hours... But this chapter is over 8 words, so please forgive me, okay?

I'm going to sleep after finishing this chapter. See ya!

By the way, I'm a guy.

(End of this chapter)
