Chapter 185: I'm just helping you dig out your eyes and cut off your tongue (with some BB)
"You are my favorite student, Helvinia."
"He~wen~nia~"
"If you don't want to give in, then grab my hand. Then... swear allegiance to me."
"This girl is mine."
…
Helvinia's eyes snapped open.
A paleness came into view, but it was not snow, but the ceiling.
A familiar yet unfamiliar ceiling.
She seemed to have had a very long nightmare, so much so that she was still not sure if she had woken up from it.
My brain was groggy and my body was uncomfortable. I was soaked in cold sweat. All that echoed in my ears was my own heavy breathing and...
"It looks like you didn't sleep well."
That familiar, leisurely "voice of the heart".
The voice of others coming from the bottom of my heart.
Along with this voice comes memory.
Hevinia gradually recalled everything, even the corpse pit that she was not sure whether it was a dream or reality.
She did not speak immediately, but got up with great difficulty, from lying down to sitting, and then looked around.
Sure enough, she had returned home.
But not her home, but the real Helvinia's home, and she was lying in Helvinia's bed, and...
She lowered her head.
In Helvinia's pajamas.
After a moment of silence, Hevinia slowly spoke: "What did you do?"
"Of course I pulled you back from the brink of death." Bai Wei said with a smile, "and helped you solve a small problem."
A little...trouble?
Helvinia thought again about last night… maybe last night.
Daphne ambushed her with four experienced players, and almost instantly forced her into a desperate situation... No, not a desperate situation.
Hevinia touched her chest subconsciously.
Even though a night had passed, the feeling of death brought by the piercing of her heart was still clear, which made her clearly realize that she was dead at that time. But Bai Wei saved her and then... reversed everything.
Hevinia could no longer remember what happened afterwards, and could only barely recall a few vague fragments.
But these few blurry fragments were enough for Hevinia to know that Daphne was dead.
Daphne, who thought of herself as a hunter, was killed by a more powerful hunter.
Is this Visas?
An indescribable complex emotion surged into Hevinia's heart.
There is frustration and defeat.
But there is no sense of relief or joy for surviving the disaster.
Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in her left eye, and she subconsciously covered it with her hand.
But it still hurts, as if my eyeball was dug out with a knife.
Logically speaking, Hevinia, who had just come out of the seed area, had a stronger tolerance for pain than most people, but she was still gasping for breath due to the pain.
But what she didn't expect was that as soon as she opened her mouth, she felt a tearing pain in her tongue.
"Ah, it looks like there is a reaction." Bai Wei seemed to have sensed something, and continued to speak in a leisurely tone, "Don't be nervous, it will be a little painful at first, but you will get used to it later."
Hevinia covered her eyes with one hand and grabbed her neck with the other, and spoke with great difficulty: "What... did you do?"
"I didn't do anything. I just dug out your eyes and cut out your tongue." Bai Wei said calmly, "But I didn't do it for nothing. I installed mine for you."
Hevinia naturally understood what Bai Wei meant.
While he still had control of her body, Bai Wei returned to the dormitory and replaced her left eye and tongue with his own.
Just like that finger.
"It shouldn't hurt that much," Bai Wei said. "After all, my body's plug-and-play properties are quite high. Maybe you're too weak now, and the burden on your body is too great. Of course, it could also be an individual problem. There are still physical differences between men and women. And there isn't much time for my body to adapt to your shape, so the method is a bit rough? Maybe that's the case."
Hevinia, who was in severe pain, couldn't hear what Bai Wei was saying.
For a few seconds, she felt like she was going to be dismembered. The two extra "limbs" were unusually restless, and their eyes seemed to be poking at their sockets frantically, wanting to go further, and their tongue was tearing at her throat wantonly, trying to make its own "residence" more comfortable.
Then she finally couldn't help it and cried out in pain.
"……ah!"
The sound reached outside the room and startled the maid outside.
"Miss?" Soon, there was a knock on the door, accompanied by the maid's slightly worried greeting, "What's wrong with you?"
Helvinia still had no answer.
It hurts. It still hurts a lot.
"Miss? Miss, are you feeling unwell?" The knocks on the door became more urgent. "Then I'm coming in, Miss."
No, you can't come in.
Hold on, you must hold on.
Hevinia gritted her teeth, trying to suppress the pain with her willpower.
But it's really hard.
She couldn't even find the voice to tell the maid that she was fine.
"Miss? Miss?!" The maid became even more anxious when she got no response. "I'm coming in..."
"No!"
Hevinia raised her head subconsciously and then shouted.
And the moment she opened her mouth.
The pain is gone.
At the same time, the world changed in Helvinia's eyes.
Everything in the room became clear and unreal.
I can see everything and everything is clear.
The small eyebrow pencils on the dressing table, a wing left by some unknown insect under the eyebrow pencil, and... the maid with her hand on the door handle, her face full of anxiety.
But the maid was clearly outside the door.
Helvinia was stunned.
She clearly saw that the maid became hesitant after hearing her voice, and her micro-expression of wanting to enter but being afraid of offending her was clearly visible.
"Miss, are you okay?"
"I'm... fine, go ahead."
Hevinia spoke subconsciously, and then immediately realized that her tone at this time was not like Hevinia's usual tone, and this explanation would only make the other party more suspicious.
But what she didn't expect was that after hearing her words, the suspicion in the maid's eyes turned into confusion in an instant, but this confusion only lasted for a very short time. Soon she became expressionless, then withdrew her hand, bowed respectfully, said "yes" and left.
It was as if she was unconsciously influenced... no, controlled by some force.
After a brief moment of stunned silence, Hevinia immediately realized that this was the power of eyes and tongue.
Bai Wei's next words also confirmed this: "Oh? You really have talent."
He said with interest.
"Even though I didn't actively share my power with you, you were able to 'steal' some of it. Tsk, such strong adaptability, what an enviable body you have."
Hevinia was about to say something, but soon she felt the stinging in her eyes and tongue again, forcing her to cover her eyes once again.
"Hmm...it seems that it's not a completely good thing." Bai Wei said with a smile, "You still have to pay the price. You won't live long if you continue like this...Tsk, I'd better do it."
The moment Bai Wei finished speaking, the secondary pain caused by his eyes and tongue disappeared again, and his vision returned to normal.
"...What's going on?" Hevinia couldn't help but ask.
"Well... let me give you a simple example." Bai Wei said, "It's like I installed a faucet in your body. What flows out of the faucet is not water, but my power and your life. As long as you turn on the faucet, you can use my power at the cost of your life. Do you understand?"
“Who controls this tap?”
"Haha, you grasped the key to the problem in an instant." Bai Wei said with a tone of "As expected of you", smiling, "Generally speaking, the valve of this faucet is under my control, after all, it is my power. But your physique is so special that you also have some ability to open the valve. Although it is only a little bit, and can only release a few drops of water, it is indeed water. At least my previous two partners couldn't do it. This is your talent. But..."
Bai Wei paused.
"But you have the ability to turn on the faucet, but you don't seem to have the ability to turn it off. So if you use it like you did just now, your vitality will also flow out uncontrollably. At this time, I need to turn it off, just like I did just now."
After listening to Bai Wei's explanation, Hevinia nodded after a brief silence to indicate that she understood, and did not say anything more.
But for Bai Wei, the relationship between his power and the host's vitality is far more complicated than this metaphor.
But he didn't explain so much at this time. He was more interested in Hevinia's reaction.
This girl, who had always been wary of Bai Wei and was unwilling to use Bai Wei's power when she was forced into a desperate situation, woke up and found that three parts of her body had been replaced. Bai Wei's power had been deeply injected into her body. What kind of mentality would she have?
Ah, it’s really interesting to think about it this way.
Hevinia didn't know what Bai Wei was thinking at this moment. She just got out of bed, walked to the full-length mirror, looked at herself in the mirror calmly, and went over everything that happened last night in her mind.
Then, she slowly said, "So, how should I call you now?"
"Um?"
Hevinia looked at the star-like left eye in the mirror, as if it was looking at Bai Wei.
"I have sworn allegiance to you, haven't I?" Hevinia said expressionlessly, "That shouldn't be my illusion."
Bai Wei smiled: "You still remember it?"
"It's hard to forget an experience you've never had before, especially one that's hovering between life and death," Helvinia said. "You saved me, and my life is yours now, so I wonder how I should address you... I should say you. Is it Lord Visas, or the Lord, or..."
"Ah, you should call me Mr. like before." Bai Wei said with a smile, "I don't care much about the name, so just go with what you are used to."
"Yes, Mr. Visas," Helvinia replied obediently, "So what do you want me to do for you?"
Bai Wei didn't say anything, but just observed Hevinia quietly.
The current Hevinia is very different from before.
She looked like she had lost the strength to fight the world on her own after the huge setback last night. Her eyes were full of dejection, as if she had accepted her fate.
If Hevinia before was like a hungry wolf disguised as a lamb, then now she is like a puppet who has lost her soul and is at the mercy of others.
This situation is actually quite normal. Bai Wei has encountered a lot of it in his previous life.
The drive and dreams of many young people have been shattered after being violently hit by the locomotive called reality, and finally they abandon everything and choose to start over, from "I want to XX God" to "God still XX".
This is a very normal phenomenon.
But the question is, could Hevinia be such a person?
Bai Wei was still having a big question mark in his heart, but he didn't show it. He just pretended to be satisfied and said, "In fact, our goal is the same, which is to play the divine song. So, collecting the six golden notes before playing the divine song is what we have to do. So just follow your original plan first. If you really encounter any trouble, just come to me."
"Yes," Helvinia replied respectfully.
At this time, the door was knocked again, and the maid's voice came from outside the room: "Miss, the lady urged you to get up, saying that a guest has arrived."
Hearing the maid's words, Bai Wei also said: "Okay, enjoy your life as a young lady first. I helped you so much last night. I am also tired. It's time to go to bed."
"I wish you a pleasant sleep," Hevinia said in her heart.
Bai Wei chuckled, and then fell silent.
After feeling that Bai Wei had left her body, Hevinia's pupils condensed slightly, and her expression changed again, as if she was thinking about something.
But she did not hesitate for too long. After responding to the maid waiting outside the door, she quickly changed her clothes.
While changing her clothes, Hevinia saw again the three notes engraved on the golden score on the snow-white body in the mirror.
One gold, two silver.
This is also Bai Wei's work.
Hevinia's expression became more complicated, but she said nothing. She quickly changed her clothes and left the room.
Outside the door, the maid was still waiting respectfully.
Helvinia immediately returned to her previous state and asked casually, "What did you say about guests coming?"
"Mr. Haddock."
Helvinia paused. "Who?"
"Mr. Haddock, have you forgotten?" said the maid, "Miss Daphne's father, Mr. Haddock Traill."
I've read the comments on the previous chapter, and I feel like there's nothing wrong with what everyone said. It's indeed very poorly written, and there's nothing to defend.
In fact, I felt something was wrong when I was halfway through writing the previous chapter. I felt that there were big problems with the way it was written, but I really couldn’t think of how to write it, because that was already the second version (yes, I wrote the previous chapter twice, and the first time was PASSED), so I just gritted my teeth and finished it.
It wasn't until today that I thought carefully about why I wrote it like this, and then I came to the conclusion that it was essentially because I was too afraid to write about battles, to the point of avoiding it.
But this is not right for an author. In my notice before the last chapter, a book friend mentioned that if you can't write well, you should write more. If you don't write, you will never be able to practice. I think it makes sense, so in a few days I should find time to delete the last chapter and rewrite it, just like the chapter in the previous volume. I will notify you when it is replaced.
That's it.
