Wen Nan felt indignant.
Is it because his replica soul was drawn from the lottery pool and it doesn't count as something he got by his own strength, so he won't give it to his sister?
But, luck is also a part of strength, right?
Why wouldn't he give away the fragments that he obtained through his own ability?
Yushou Zero is the guardian of the sheath of the divine staff, and his level is unfathomable. The guardians of the divine staff fragments must also have unique skills.
In this case, it would be a pity to miss it.
Just as I was sighing, I heard Yu Shujun tell me a heart-wrenching fact without any emotion:
"Omamori Twelve is the guardian of your replica soul."
Twelve Amulets...
Was it the female corpse that appeared the second time in Yu Shujun's test space? Died in such a cruel way in Yu Shujun's arms? Wen Nan restrained the joking expression on his face and looked at the other person's face seriously, "How could this happen?"
Yu Shujun lowered his eyelashes and whispered, "The power of the scepter fragment is so strong, and the power behind it is so great, it is too tempting for the players.
“Gold rank, even the ninth rank, all try their best just to get one more piece.
“The battle for fragments has always been like this.
"I obviously knew it a long time ago, but I was young and arrogant at that time. When the Twelve Guardians came to me and asked for protection, I boasted that I would protect her.
“With Carl Mirak’s strength, he is definitely no match for me in a one-on-one fight, but I underestimated the meanness of human nature.
“He signed a gentleman’s agreement with me, and I thought he would fight me openly. Who knew that the temptation of the fragment would make him openly deceive the game master and unite with three other legendary players. The four of us worked together to encircle and suppress me.
"I am no match for them. I am not afraid of death, but with Genpozan here, they dare not kill me. They let me watch the Twelve Guardians die tragically in front of me."
Yu Shujun spoke of his memories of the past in a disjointed manner, and much of the background was described very vaguely.
Wen Nan did not ask in detail. He understood what Yu Shujun meant, and he was also very clear that those past memories had hurt Yu Shujun too deeply. In fact, the other party did not want to remember those details at all, but because of Wen Nan, he was forced to uncover the old wounds and show them to him.
So, when Yu Shujun stopped, Wen Nan did not ask any further questions, but just looked at the other person's face quietly.
Yu Shujun's thick eyelashes hid the emotions in her eyes, but her furrowed brows, tight lips, and clenched fists still revealed her inner unrest.
After a moment, Yu Shujun spoke again: "Twelve was lying in my arms, covered in blood. I held her and told her I was sorry over and over again...
"But what's the point of apologizing? Amulets are not characters that can be captured. Amulets cannot enter the furnace. Once they leave, they are gone forever.
“Even if Twelve beats me, scolds me, and slanders me before he dies, it’s fine.
"But she just looked at me, used her last bit of strength to force a smile, and told me -
"'Xiaojun, it's not your fault, don't be sad, I am relieved and very happy.'"
At this point, Yu Shujun raised his eyes again, and when he looked at Wen Nan, his eyes were red, "I seldom fell asleep afterwards. Whenever I fell asleep, I would dream of Twelve's bloody smile."
Having said this, Yu Shujun stopped, his throat choked with sobs and he could hardly continue.
Wen Nan looked at the other person and sighed softly.
Where there are players, there will be the world of martial arts, and where there is the world of martial arts, there will inevitably be fighting.
Even a game like this that focuses on everyday love seems unable to escape this law.
It was Wen Nan who asked the other party to bring up this memory again. Now that the atmosphere had become so cold, he wanted to say a few words of comfort, but found that he had no idea where to start.
Like the Twelve Omotesando, saying, "Xiaojun, this is not your fault?" This will only make the other person feel more guilty.
Wen Nan suddenly became tongue-tied and after thinking for a long time, he had no idea what to say to break the deadlock.
"laugh."
Seeing Wen Nan's look, Yu Shujun actually chuckled.
Wen Nan raised his eyes and saw the corners of the other person's lips raised, and the corners of his red eyes curved downward into a crescent shape.
"Why do you have that expression? Boss Ye, who claims that there is no trouble that can't be solved by a single shot, actually has times when he is at a loss?"
Wen Nan stared at Yu Shujun's smiling face in a daze and did not respond.
Yu Shujun continued, "This matter has nothing to do with you. You are not going to take on this responsibility just because of a control pattern, right, Master?"
Wen Nan did not answer the other party's teasing question, but just said softly: "You look better when you smile."
Most of the time, the little servant was in a rebellious phase with bad tempers and was not very kind to him. Wen Nan rarely saw Yu Shujun smile at him like this, and at this moment, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, following the curve of the other's lips.
The smile on Yu Shujun's lips faded, he lowered his eyes uncomfortably, his heartbeat became faster, and two blushes spread from his cheeks to his neck.
Wen Nan had always known that his servant was not good at being teased, and at this moment he was satisfied to see the other party's flustered look, and was just about to strike while the iron was hot and say a few more words.
But Yu Shujun changed the subject and said, "I'm sorry about what happened in the trial map before."
Wen Nan's smile froze, and then he laughed and shook his head, "Why do you bring this up all of a sudden?"
This matter did make Wen Nan unhappy at first, but the little servant had followed him for so long, he had already earned it back, and he even had to thank the other party for sending himself to him to control.
But Yu Shujun obviously didn't have the good attitude of Wen Nan who didn't take anything to heart. After thinking for a moment, Yu Shujun explained:
“After Twelve died, Feng Shui Huan helped me seek help from the Lord God and predicted that the replica soul would fall on the trial map where you are.
"When I rushed to that map and met you for the first time, I was filled with hatred..."
At that time, Yu Shujun had serious problems with his mentality. Not only did he hate the Ghost Tamer Alliance and the other three legendary players who helped Carl Mirak, Yu Shujun developed hatred and rejection towards all the players.
Although he was unwilling to admit it, Yu Shujun, in order to achieve his goal, did not hesitate to make himself the most shameless person. He learned from Carl Mirak's method and used the gentleman's agreement to deceive others. After the plan was exposed, he even wanted to kill an innocent person...
The replica fragment is too special. Once used, it is likely to affect the opening of the sheath of the scepter and the throne.
Yu Shujun lost his composure because he was anxious at that time.
But this cannot be an excuse for what Yu Shujun did to Wen Nan.
Now that things have come to this, Yu Shujun regrets it, but he also knows that it is irreversible.
Yu Shujun often wondered why she met this man at that time.
If it was before the death of Yushou Twelve, or even before the death of Yushou Eight, when Yu Shujun's heart was not filled with hatred, if they had met this man named Ye Jiu, would they still have a chance?
The man opposite her rejected her so straightforwardly. Perhaps, in addition to the special group that Yu Shujun belonged to, it was also related to the unbearable encounter with them. At this point, Yu Shujun had nothing to complain about. It was all her own fault.
Now the two of them can sit opposite each other in front of the window and discuss the past like friends. For Yu Shujun, this is something to be thankful for.
Yu Shujun knew that she shouldn't expect anything more, so she stayed with the other person and watched him make love with other women in bed. Yu Shujun just stayed in the dark and watched quietly.
But when he did that with those women, Yu Shujun couldn't control himself, and became unwilling and angry...
Of course, Wen Nan had no way of knowing what Yu Shujun was thinking deep down.
Wen Nan's truth serum is useless on Yu Shujun, and the other party's mind reading skill can also use the transferred fragments to "bounce" back to Wen Nan, which often makes Wen Nan feel confused about Yu Shujun's little thoughts.
But even though he couldn't completely guess what Yu Shujun was thinking about him, Wen Nan could still clearly feel Yu Shujun's struggle, fear, and sadness about the memories of the past, so Wen Nan said seriously: "The past cannot be changed, but in the future, with me here, I will never let something like this happen again."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Yu Shujun raised his eyes again and looked at Wen Nan steadily, without responding for a long time.
If a player who had just entered the silver rank said something like this to Yu Shujun and other people heard it, they would probably laugh at Wen Nan for overestimating his own abilities.
But when Yu Shujun heard this, he felt inexplicably at ease.
Sometimes, Yu Shujun's trust in Wen Nan is even much higher than Wen Nan himself.
Although he didn't speak, Wen Nan could sense Yu Shujun's emotions from his gaze, which reminded him of something else, and he couldn't help but ask:
"You have so many fragments in your hands, and have come into contact with so many amulets. You should have known about the sheath of the divine staff a long time ago. At the beginning, you wanted to take the sheath for yourself, right? Why did you change your mind later and insist on binding the sheath of the divine staff to me permanently?"
It is obvious that Yu Shujun himself is more willing to be the Sheath Bearer and is more suitable to be the Sheath Bearer, so why is he now determined to push this position to Wen Nan?
Could it be that he was influenced by the golden control pattern and became addicted to being a servant? Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Yu Shujun respond: "It was the Lord God's agent who gave me the hint."
"…The Lord God's agent? The president of the Fengshui Huan Guild?"
Yu Shujun nodded. "After I knew about the existence of the Scepter's Scabbard, I wanted to get it and become the Scabbard Bearer. But the agent told me that some things cannot be forced, otherwise it will only backfire. Some people are far more suitable to be the Scabbard Bearer than me."
Hearing this, Wen Nan nodded.
Well, it sounds like those words came from the agent, the Riddler himself.
Yu Shujun continued, "I didn't understand at the time, and I was unwilling to give up, so I asked him who was more suitable to be the sheath bearer than me, but I didn't get a direct answer from him, only one sentence -
"'You'll understand when you meet him.'"
At this point, Yu Shujun looked at Wen Nan and said, "I didn't believe it at first, but when you showed up, I believed it."
Wen Nan was stunned, looking into the other person's eyes. He vaguely thought that Yu Shujun had been with him for too long and had learned his skills in picking up girls. However, when he looked into the other person's eyes seriously, Wen Nan clearly saw a light in the other person's eyes, like stars in the night.
After being stunned for a moment, Wen Nan laughed, "Could it be that after being a servant for so long, I have started to have a filter for my master?"
Wen Nan put on a distressed look as he spoke, "Your filter is too big, the master might have an idol burden."
Yu Shujun glared at Wen Nan and thought to himself that he shouldn't have told him everything that was in his heart. This man's serious look would not last for more than ten minutes before he would immediately return to his original state.
"The legend of the Scepter's Scabbard spread throughout this gaming world a long time ago, but so many players spent so much energy searching for it to no avail. Yet, you got it without any effort. Have you ever wondered why?"
Yu Shujun paused for a moment and gave his own answer, "I think it's not the players who are searching for the Scepter's Sheath, it's the Scepter's Sheath that is searching for the right holder of the Sheath, and the Scepter's Sheath chose you."
As he spoke, Yu Shujun looked at Wen Nan seriously, "The Lord God here is looking after you."
Wen Nan felt that the other party's words were somewhat mysterious.
But after thinking for a moment, Wen Nan recalled the brief conversation he had with the Lord God when he got the [Silver Star] badge. Wen Nan frowned.
"Lord God, are you interested in me?"
Although "favor" and "take a fancy to" have similar meanings, for some reason, when Wen Nan said it, Yu Shujun always felt that it seemed to have a strange color to it.
You shouldn't discuss this kind of thing with the other party. He is totally unruly.
With a sigh, Yu Shujun said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about something else?"
Wen Nan nodded obediently, "Then let's talk about your [Golden Star]?"
Yu Shujun was startled, thinking, the [Golden Star] is just a badge, what's there to talk about? "If you want to talk about the contents of the gift package that comes with the badge, I have nothing to say. Even if you want to talk about it, the system won't allow it."
Wen Nan shook his head, "I don't want to talk about this."
"What is that?"
Wen Nan supported his knees with his hands and moved closer to Yu Shujun. He hooked his finger at her and asked her after she came closer, "Where on your body did you wear the golden halo?"
Yu Shujun:?
Yu Shujun refused to answer and jumped directly from the windowsill, preparing to evacuate the scene.
"Hey, why are you leaving in the middle of a conversation?"
Wen Nan raised his hand, grabbed the other person's wrist, and pulled him back, "It's a matter of reciprocity. Mine are all worn by you personally. Let me see what you have."
Yu Shujun struggled with his wrist but failed to break free. "Let go."
Wen Nan didn't let go, "We are all so familiar with each other, why are you still being so formal?"
Yu Shujun's mind moved, and his attitude suddenly changed, "Do you want to see it?"
Then he nodded, "Okay, I'll take it off for you to see." (End of this chapter)
