Chapter 14
Nie Wuhen doesn't want to become a demon. Firstly, it was because of his mother, and secondly, he didn't want to become enemies with Yun Dian and all the immortal cultivators. He didn't want to be a rat crossing the street that everyone wanted to beat, and had to live in the dark all his life. He had had enough of that kind of life, so even if he died, he would not let himself become a demon.
But Cassell couldn't understand.
In his opinion, the demon they were talking about should be similar to the devil. Since he is a demon, he has the right to survive. He couldn't understand why Nie Wuhen said that if you become a demon, you will die. It would be terrible if he became possessed by the devil. How could he complete the mission of stopping the war between fairies and demons, how could he return to the devil's hell, and how could he meet Barbatos!
Nie Wuhen was silent again. Cassel could only sit beside him, racking his brains to think of how to comfort him. Finally, after holding it in for a long time, he said, "There's nothing wrong with being possessed by a demon."
Nie Wuhen still didn't speak.
Cassel decided to use his trump card: "I'll tell you a secret. Actually, I am a demon. I should be what you call... a person possessed by a demon..." He was not sure, but he could only bite the bullet and comfort her, "I don't understand the things in your world, but in our world, light and darkness are equal. The God of Creation said that angels and demons must coexist, otherwise the world will be destroyed."
Seeing that Nie Wuhen didn't say anything, Cassel's tone became a little anxious: "What's wrong with being possessed by a demon? It's just being possessed by a demon. I also want to be possessed by a demon." At the end of his words, he choked with sobs. He didn't want to stay in this strange environment for the rest of his life. He still wanted to go home. "Wuwuwu... Can you please not die? What should I do if you die..."
Nie Wuhen was overwhelmed. He subconsciously growled, "Don't cry." The moment he finished speaking, he wondered if his tone was too serious. The moment he opened his eyes, he saw Cassel biting his lips tightly, crying silently, his eyes were red, and tears were falling like pearls from a broken string.
He was still wiping tears sadly.
Now, it was Nie Wuhen's turn to be dumbfounded. After all, Cassel cried to comfort himself, but he was treated so harshly by him. No matter from which angle you look at it, it was his fault.
Nie Wuhen was silent. He is not very good at comforting people and doesn't know what to say at all. Apart from saying "stop crying", he really can't think of anything else to say.
He could only grope stiffly for the handkerchief from the space - but couldn't find it. I only realized later that it seemed to have been taken away by Cassel. But at this moment, Nie Wuhen couldn't open his mouth to ask Cassel for it. In the end, he pursed his lips, rolled up his sleeves, and wiped his tears resignedly.
Cassel looked up at him, sobbing, and asked him if he could not die.
Nie Wuhen's tone was extremely stiff: "It's not you who will die, but me, why are you crying?" After he said that, he regretted it, because he found that Cassel's tears could never be wiped away.
Nie Wuhen: "..." He had a moment of doubt, wondering if the monster in front of him was made of water?
"I will protect you," Nie Wuhen said dryly, "I will help you get out alive, don't cry."
Cassel let him wipe his tears - Barbatos had wiped his tears in the same way before, and he was used to it. Hearing this, he blinked twice, looked up at Nie Wuhen, and asked him: "What about you?"
Nie Wuhen followed his words: "I won't die either."
"What if he's possessed by a demon?"
Nie Wuhen was silent for a while, then said, "I won't die either."
Cassel burst into laughter. He pulled Nie Wuhen's sleeve and wiped his tears vigorously. After sniffing his nose, he rushed over and hugged Nie Wuhen while rubbing his head against Nie Wuhen's chest: "Please don't die. What will I do if you die?"
How can he go home?
Nie Wuhen was originally going to grab Cassel by the back of his collar and throw him out, but when he heard these words, his whole body froze, and for a moment, he even forgot to push Cassel out. After a long while, he closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "Back off."
"oh."
Cassel let go of his hand, took two steps back, and gave Nie Wuhen a big smile, but then he seemed to remember something and hurriedly retracted his smile, looking embarrassed.
Nie Wuhen pulled the corner of his mouth: "...Why do you have this expression?"
"I'm a little ugly," Cassel covered his face and peeked at him through his fingers, "I'm not good-looking."
Nie Wuhen: “…”
Nightfall. Cassel couldn't hold on any longer. He was tired and sleepy. He wanted to sleep, but after looking around, he didn't dare to go to bed alone. He could only look at Nie Wuhen and call him, "Nie Wuhen."
Nie Wuhen sat on the windowsill, suppressing his inner demons. The resentment around him was too heavy, and he didn't have the mermaid pearl, so the signs of being possessed by the devil became more and more serious. The voice from the sky was like a nightmare that entangled him, repeating over and over again, "Why do you sit in this position!"
At the moment when I was about to fall into endless darkness, that cautious and expectant voice was like a life-saving straw, pulling me out little by little. The drowning man grabbed a piece of driftwood, and the moment he broke through the water, he saw the light.
Cassel was still gently pulling at his sleeve: "Why are you ignoring me again... Nie Wuhen..."
Nie Wuhen raised his eyes, suppressed the dark red in his eyes, and said, "What's the matter?"
"You take a nap and I'll watch over you. I'll take a nap and you'll watch over me. Okay?"
Nie Wuhen withdrew his magic power and leaned on the windowsill without coming down. There could be no windows in a tomb, but there were windows in the yard. I guess Qiongzhi was ready to escape at any time.
"You go to sleep first," Nie Wuhen said, "I'm not sleepy."
Cassel clenched his fingers. While looking at Nie Wuhen's face, he sneakily climbed up to the windowsill and sat face to face with Nie Wuhen. In the face of Nie Wuhen's indifferent expression, he spoke without much confidence: "I want to sleep with you."
“…This is not called sleeping together.”
"Oh." Cassel didn't quite understand. He leaned back, but the corners of the window were too hard on his wings, which hurt a little. Finally, he reluctantly reached out his hands behind his back and tried to touch his wings, but when he touched it, he felt something terrible. Where were his bare little wings? ! Can anyone tell him why he still has hair?
Cassel felt like the sky was falling.
Nie Wuhen saw that he had a dull expression and didn't figure out what was going on, so he just watched him sitting there. After a long time, his eyes finally lit up and his gaze fell on him, just like a dog seeing a bone, he pounced on him!
Nie Wuhen almost couldn't sit still!
Cassel couldn't care about anything else. He pulled Nie Wuhen's clothes, crying and saying, "I want my magic power... Can you give my magic power back to me? I'm really scared..."
Nie Wuhen pulled back the hand that was supporting his waist: "Stop making trouble and sit down."
"I don't want it!" Cassel couldn't hold it in any longer, "I want magic power! It's all because of you that my wings have grown hair! They are no longer bare little wings! I'm really going to become ugly!"
Nie Wuhen didn't quite understand: "Isn't it good-looking to have hair? Birds' wings look good only when they have feathers..."
"It's different, this is different," Cassel's lips were trembling with fear, "It's not good to have hair! It's not good-looking at all! I'm a little devil, and devils can't have feathers! Wuuuuu - it's all your fault! I want magic power, give me back my magic power!"
Nie Wuhen just felt it was ridiculous: "It's not me..."
Before he could finish his words, he cried even louder! Nie Wuhen wanted to pull him out of his arms, but Cassel held him tightly, with his head on his shoulder, and used his hands and feet to wrap around him like a snake, so Nie Wuhen couldn't pull him away! In desperation, he could only hurriedly cover his mouth, his forehead throbbing: "Do you want to attract the ghost?"
The crying was obviously softer, but still choked. This was the first time Nie Wuhen saw Cassel crying so desperately, a mixture of despair and pain, but more of it was fear.
"I want magic power." Cassel sobbed, tears flowing down his cheeks, flowing over his chin, and quickly wetting his clothes. Nie Wuhen could feel that his shoulders were getting cold.
"I just want magic power," Cassel hugged Nie Wuhen's neck and refused to let go, "Or you can just pluck my feathers! It's all the fault of this world! When did my feathers grow so fast! Woo woo woo..."
Nie Wuhen felt like he couldn't breathe, so he simply pinched the back of his neck and said, "Get up!"
"I won't," Cassel didn't let go, "My little wings..."
"..." Nie Wuhen felt so tired for the first time, and his heart was exhausted. "Okay. Let go, and I will return the magic power to you."
Cassel paused in tears: "Really?!"
Nie Wuhen said weakly: "Yeah."
Cassel wiped his tears, hummed, and slowly let go of his hand. When he lowered his eyes and saw Nie Wuhen, his mind was confused for a moment. He was so overwhelmed by fear that he actually forgot that the Sword Master in front of him didn't seem to be a good person.
Cassel was stunned. He ran down tremblingly and stammering, but his legs were numb from kneeling for so long that he didn't pay attention while running and fell headfirst!
"ah--"
Nie Wuhen was waiting for Cassel to go down, but his arm suddenly sank, and before he could react, he was dragged down. With a "bang", they both fell into the window!
Cassel got up from the ground and went to help Nie Wuhen, whispering sorry. Nie Wuhen said nothing, lowered his head and patted his clothes, looking at Cassel who looked terrified, and suddenly said, "Are you afraid of me?"
Cassel's hands trembled, but he still shook his head in panic and answered no.
Nie Wuhen looked at him for a while without saying anything. He pulled a chair over and motioned for Cassel to sit down. Cassel didn't sit down: "Do you want to pluck my hair?"
Nie Wuhen asked back: "If you have magical powers, would you remove the feathers yourself?"
"No," Cassel replied, "the feathers can only be plucked out one by one." As he said this, he sat down and leaned over the table.
The wings are connected to the body and have empathy. The clothes Cassel wears have two holes on the back for the wings to come out. Nie Wuhen obviously noticed this and gave him clothes with two holes on the back.
Nie Wuhen walked over and looked down at the wings. This was the first time he had observed it so closely. The wings are black and bare on the surface. When spread out, they are as big as two adult palms and very small.
But now, there is more fluff near the tip, and when you look closer, it is still white.
Cassel drooped his antennae, lay on the table, flapped his wings twice, and asked nervously: "Did you grow a lot of feathers?"
Nie Wuhen looked at the flapping little wings: "No."
"Ah," Cassel seemed relieved and continued to ask, "What color are the feathers that grow out?"
