Chapter Five: Talking to Oneself



Quite the perverse sense of humor.

"Are you angry? Oh dear, you need to understand something..."

"If you're weak enough, even your resistance seems adorable~"

The bloody patterns depicted on the altar seemed to distort, and a black shadow emerged from them.

Before Ning Feng could speak, a pair of scarlet eyes lit up from the distorted shadow.

"Alright~ Since your cuteness has brought me joy again after so long, how should I thank you?"

"It's decided, I'll show you my beautiful face!"

The shadow twisted and writhed, from which a black cat with scarlet eyes slowly emerged, raising its head and smiling at Ning Feng.

"Look, isn't this cute?"

Its eyes seemed to be smiling, but there was absolutely no warmth in them, only a deep and terrifying coldness.

In his eyes, the other party was not an adorable black cat, but an unspeakable, deep shadow!

Feeling uneasy, Ning Feng subconsciously focused his attention and looked at the shadow from which the black cat had emerged...

【▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇】

The information appearing before my eyes was completely obscured, accompanied by a barrage of delirious ramblings exploding in my mind!

"ah!"

Ning Feng collapsed to his knees, the holy flames he had unleashed spilling onto the ground. He paid no heed to that, and covered his eyes in anguish.

Blood streamed uncontrollably from the corner of his eye, and coupled with his pained expression, Ning Feng looked incredibly ferocious.

"Huh? You're really bold, aren't you? You're willing to risk your life just to see a girl's true face?"

The black cat was genuinely surprised this time; even its swishing tail paused for a moment. It tilted its head, scrutinized Ning Feng who was clenching his teeth, and said regretfully:

"It's a real shame. I was hoping to have a chat with you, but it seems I won't have the chance now."

"After all, you're about to die."

The babbling and roars in his mind were destroying Ning Feng's will; he couldn't quite understand what the black cat had said...

……die?

Who's going to die?

Tick-tock.

Blood dripped from between his fingers and onto the silvery liquid on the ground.

boom!

The silvery-white flames lit up the room again, but this time Ning Feng himself was the victim.

But perhaps because the impact on his soul was too intense, Ning Feng did not experience the heat and pain in his body at all.

In the firelight, Ning Feng's blurred vision transformed into fragmented images, constantly assaulting his already fragile will.

Under such suffering, even thinking becomes a luxury.

"Bye then~"

The black cat smiled at Ning Feng's miserable state, easily waved its paw, and its figure gradually disappeared back into the shadows.

From beginning to end, whether it appeared or disappeared, it was just talking to itself.

Even with its affectionate tone, Ning Feng's figure was never reflected in its eyes.

Ning Feng never actually had the right to engage in dialogue from the very beginning.

As the flames gradually died down, Ning Feng's consciousness also began to fade, and his body fell heavily to the ground.

In the final moments before his consciousness faded, Ning Feng, whose upper body was almost completely charred, finally saw something clearly.

【▇▇▇▇】

He read it aloud unconsciously, his voice strained and hoarse from his throat:

“...Ariana.”

The moment those words were spoken, the entire room seemed to fall silent.

The shadows that were gradually fading suddenly surged, and the dim altar became completely dark and shattered!

In the darkness, those scarlet eyes suddenly opened, brighter than ever before!

Suddenly, it seemed as if a phantom figure had descended into the room.

The figure quietly scrutinized Ning Feng, his deep gaze seemingly piercing through the depths of his soul.

final.

"Found it."

He seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and whispered slowly:

"The beginning of everything, the end of everything, I finally..."

"I've found you."

"【▇▇▇】"
