"It's alright, it'll be fine in a bit." Lin wanted to comfort Xian, but she was powerless to do anything about it.
This body is already exhausted and its life force is waning.
You don't know the hardships of managing a household until you're in charge; you don't know the struggles of being a father until you're a parent. It was just about raising a child, but who knew it would cost me my life?
Lin looked at Xian, who had suffered from severe food shortages over the past two years and had become quite thin. If this continued, Xian would surely not live much longer.
Why am I saddened by his short life? I only ever saw him as a substitute. When did my feelings change? Was it because I'd been lonely for too long? Or did I truly begin to see myself as a father and him as a child?
Lin was in a daze and couldn't understand. The only thing he remembered was Yu's tragic death.
I don't remember exactly how many years ago it was, but my house was destroyed in an explosion, and Yu and I had no choice but to move to the other side of the city. Kyoto is a big city, and the place where we lived had cheap housing, but relatively speaking, the area was not safe.
We are saviors, and we don't care about minor issues like poor public order. However, unforeseen events can happen at any time, and misfortune can strike at any moment.
In this place, Yu Tianren and I are forever separated, never to meet again.
It was an extremely dark and cold night. Yu was feeling unwell due to a cold, and when I returned from buying medicine, the house was covered in blood, with severed limbs scattered everywhere. On the dining table in the center of the living room, I saw someone slumped over the table, holding Yu's head and gnawing on it, tearing Yu's face beyond recognition.
My feelings at that moment were indescribable. I felt as if my heart had been ripped out, ravaged, trampled, and roasted alive, the pain unbearable. At that time, my bodily functions had not disappeared; on the contrary, my five senses were even more acute, and I could hear the person swallowing.
He's eating my feathers; my feathers are being eaten as food.
This world, this world, how can it be so unreasonable!
"Hehehe, you're back!" The man grabbed the mangled feather, grinned, revealing a bloody mouth, "It's sweet, want some?"
After saying that, he bit off Yu's ear.
"Stop." I used the power of the spatial "divine grace" to snatch Yu back and carefully held her in my arms.
"Sigh, I'm still not full." The man sighed heavily.
There was nothing good to eat, so the man bent down and licked the blood and bits of meat off the table with his tongue. "It's all cold, it doesn't taste good."
It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.
The man got off the table, his mutilated limbs scattered around him, and walked to one side at random.
I saw through his intention and took back all of Yu's limbs.
"It's hard to gain weight by eating alone; good things should be shared with everyone."
The man raised his head, his neatly styled black hair was extremely eye-catching, and his gold-rimmed glasses had several drops of blood on the lenses. His narrow eyes revealed the mad pleasure after venting his hatred. He was dressed in a suit and tie, impeccably dressed, the standard attire of a successful person. However, you can know a person's face but not their heart. Inside, he was filthy and disgusting, more filthy than a sewer.
He walked towards me step by step. Yu's body was divided into many pieces, and I could not hold him firmly with both hands. I could only stand still.
When he was two steps away from me, he stopped moving.
"He's a fool too. I just told him my wallet was stolen and asked him to lend me some money for a taxi home. Not only did he believe me, he even invited me in to wash up and have a cup of hot tea. Mmm, the tea was so fragrant and strong, it was really delicious." The man took a deep breath, his smile bright and cheerful. "As the saying goes, 'No pain, no gain.' He offered me tea, so I offered him some sleeping pills. The sleeping pills were made by the Savior's Mental Hospital; they're harmless to the Savior's body, they just put people into a deep sleep. I used the sleeping pills, and he fell into a deep sleep too."
The man licked his lips, still savoring the moment, and said, "You saviors have amazing powers, fine, but why is it so hard to chop flesh and bone? Look at my hands, I've got blisters from trying to cut it into smaller pieces, it hurts so much."
I looked down at Yu's limbs; the cuts, varying in depth, were definitely not caused by a single stroke.
The man pointed to the small round ball on the ground and said, "Things made by the Savior Mental Hospital are really effective. No matter how many times I chop him up, he only frowns and groans a few times. The effects of the medicine wear off, and he really can't wake up! Amazing, no wonder I spent all my money to buy it."
I glanced at the man; his five fingers were being pulled out one by one.
"Ah...you are the savior, you cannot hurt people," the man cried out in pain.
My face remained as calm as a still, deep pool. With a gritted teeth, I snapped the man's arm in two. Blood gushed out like a faucet that had been blocked for a while.
I will make Yu repay the suffering he has endured a thousandfold.
I used my spatial abilities to control his blood, preventing him from bleeding to death. Then, I slowly crushed his hands and feet, pouring every drop of the blood from his flesh and bones into his mouth.
"Waaah..." The man finished his drink and said weakly, "So what if you're saviors? You're just a wage earner, and I can still torture you to death. Hahaha... You hypocritical scum, die, die, you all deserve to die."
"Do you know what I did to him before he died? Do you want to know? Do you want to know...?"
Before the man could finish speaking, I covered his mouth, took him to the kitchen, turned on the stove, turned the fire down to a low flame, and slowly roasted him.
As I handcuffed him, I pieced the feather together on the ground, then swallowed it bit by bit. I didn't want to be alone; I had no choice but to let the feather become part of my very being.
Yu is such a good and kind person, she definitely won't be angry with me.
Three days later, that person turned into charcoal, and Yu and I became one.
My enemy is dead, and I feel empty inside. I wander around looking for something and unexpectedly find a monster. The monster is very ugly and small, and it looks like it has shed a layer of skin.
