Although the cub has lost its memories of its previous life, it still has a strong affinity for things like big wolves and dogs. It's a pity for Vino; he doesn't have three heads, and once they're gone, they're gone. A wolf without a head will die.
So Vino, under Nosius's icy gaze, wanted to cry but had no tears.
Nosius is not moving Vino now, entirely because the cubs cannot bear the sight of blood.
But the cub didn't care about any of that. He stared at the big wolf with an expression of longing.
The cub was forced to forget things that were so profound that he couldn't let go, but he still remembered that riding a wolfhound like this gave him a great view.
The child wants it.
But the child cannot be obtained.
Nosius would never allow anyone to surpass him as the cub's humanoid mobility aid, so he continued to turn Chiyori's chin and teach the cub to speak:
"Nosius".
"Hmm..."
The three-word phrase was too difficult for the cub to repeat, and he began to show his familiar pained expression again.
This also startled Nosius and his men.
The witch doctor was called over to check, and thankfully it was just a false alarm.
Knowing that the cub couldn't yet call him by name, Nosius pursed his lips.
The cub touched its own chest, seemingly sensing the sudden surge of Nosius's emotions. It looked at Nosius and reached out to touch his face.
"Good boy... good boy..."
The cub was genuinely trying to coax someone with a serious expression.
Nosius: ...
Others: ...
They had no idea that the cubs were the most charming and coaxing creatures here!
Nosius's heterochromatic pupils, one gold and one silver, gradually deepened. When Qian Yuan met his gaze, she felt as if she were being enveloped by his unfathomable eyes.
What were those eyes...?
Those familiar heterochromatic eyes... who... who else has looked at him with those same eyes, giving him the same look?
That longing, once recalled, spreads like wild grass.
Qianyuan covered his head; he could hear someone crying beside him, speaking in a very sad and lonely voice:
"I want to go home."
"I want to go home."
Qianyuan wondered, what should I do? He couldn't find his way home either.
He kept apologizing to that voice in his heart:
sorry……
But the voice in his heart suddenly became clear: "...Waiting for you! Qianyuan, I want to...!"
Before Qianyuan could hear clearly, the system's buzzing sound rang out: "Abnormal data fluctuations detected, under maintenance. Repeat, abnormal data fluctuations detected, under maintenance..."
"Baby!"
Amidst the gasps of the crowd, Qianyuan fainted and nearly fell from Nosius's arms. Fortunately, Nosius reacted quickly and protected the cub tightly.
Nosius looked at the cub in his arms and used his divine power to investigate. In an instant, he even grabbed the tail of something.
The system was startled. To avoid being caught by Nosius, it had no choice but to sever a section of its data and flee quickly. Therefore, Nosius only sensed a deeper constraint within Qianyuan's body, beyond the contract he had established.
But Nosius couldn't even figure out the source of that bondage.
He lowered his brow, giving the impression that a storm was brewing.
Fortunately, the cub's coma wasn't too long this time. He woke up groggily, and the first thing he did was go find Nosius.
Nosius held his breath, unsure if the cub was alright, so he could only observe it carefully. But when he noticed the cub's eyes, his gaze sharpened.
The cub's eyes were originally misty and watery, which could easily make people feel affectionate at first glance. However, the cub's eyes have not changed much, but they have been unable to focus for a long time.
"Look, how many is this?"
Nosius's voice was calm and steady, without a trace of panic, but his heavier breathing betrayed his emotions.
The cub tried hard to see, but no matter what he did, everything in front of him was blurry.
There was only a few light sources of varying shades.
The cub clenched his fingers, a look of shame on his face, and shook his head: "No..."
It's invisible.
Nosius's heart sank to the bottom.
But his first reaction was to comfort the child: "It's okay, you can't see, you don't need to apologize. If you can't see, we are your eyes."
Qianyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
When he was blind and mute, it was during a period of severe illness. The gradual loss of sight and speech caused by the disease was perhaps the feeling of having gained something and then losing it. Qianyuan had already experienced this once, so the child is very calm now.
His only worry was whether he would cause trouble for Nosius and his group.
Why is this happening? If he could see it, he could help.
The system had just lost some data and was already struggling to recover, but due to system rules, he still needed to explain to Qianyuan:
"During the maintenance, some side effects were accidentally left behind. As compensation, one of your special ailment buffs has been removed, and we are also applying to reduce your punishment. The application should be approved soon."
But the real reason why Qianyuan went blind couldn't be clearer than the system's intention.
He was afraid that Qianyuan would recall her memories from the previous world during the mission, and then rebel against the system even more when the punishment was doubled, and directly give up collecting emotional points. If this continued, the system would not complete the mission and would also be punished by the main system.
The system and the host are actually interdependent.
However, the system beside Qianyuan has completely reversed the order of things and gone too far.
And now he is about to suffer the backlash.
The system checked again and again and found that the data it had just lost in Qian Yuan's body was its own core data.
