A Gift for Pardo, with Misteln as Witness (Continued)

Although she is still slender and slim, the two ounces of flesh on her chest have increased from B to C+. This is because when Pardo was a child, she no longer ate one meal and went hungry for a day, and her nutrition improved.

When Bai Ge and Elysia were traveling the world, they spent a full ten days in Twilight Street, and then... the two of them completely conquered Twilight Street.

Although it was a place of great integrity and talent, in the face of the Five Herrscher and the Herrscher of Origin, the only path left was submission.

Bai Ge taught all the underworld bosses in Twilight Street a severe lesson, and then became the backer of Pardo and Aponia's Sanatorium, codenamed Boss.

Make those criminal gangs obediently pay tribute every month.

After all, how could he bear to let his cat and the big moth live a hard life, not to mention that Twilight Street was a mixed place where gunfights even happened from time to time.

If it weren't for Cat Anchor's incredible luck—the silver coins in her chest pouch stopped a bullet for her—she would have been sent away long ago...

Although this happened during my first playthrough.

The silver coin was given to Bai Ge as a gift by Pardo. However, with Bai Ge's protection in this 12th cycle, no one in Twilight Street dared to provoke Pado. When people saw this little cat passing by, they would think of the days when Bai Ge ruled.

Let alone getting her involved in a gunfight, even if the fighting is at its most intense, the sight of Pardo would immediately halt fire to avoid accidentally injuring her.

However, precisely because of this, the battle aid item known as "Nine Lives Difficult to Turn Around" in the Elysian Realm will no longer exist, since Pardo no longer needs silver coins to shield herself from bullets.

After all, she's the cat raised by the savior.

Harming Pardo = angering Bai Ge = becoming an enemy of the world.

Even if the Herrscher of Finality descends, she won't be able to harm her.

(Thankfully, the system saved this silver coin for me.)

Bai Ge took out the bullet-hole silver coin that Pardo had given him during his first playthrough from his system space and carefully stroked the bullet holes on it.

Putting everything else aside, just like the cross Kiana gave her, this contains half of Pardo's luck.

"Huh? Boss Bai Ge, how come you have a bullet-hole silver coin? Hmm, and it looks so familiar."

"I don't remember anymore, "Pardo asked curiously.

"Hehe, this is one of my most important treasures."

"What?! Boss Bai Ge's treasure?!"

Pardo's ears and tail stood up in shock as she looked at the silver coins in Bai's hand, and she immediately withdrew her hand.

"... Pardo, you keep this for me." Bai Ge hesitated for a moment, then returned the bullet-hole silver coin to the cat.

"This... this... this! How can this be! No, no!" Pardo shook her head vigorously and refused immediately.

She didn't think it was worthless just because it had a bullet hole. Since it was Bai Ge's treasure, it undoubtedly had special commemorative significance.

"I'm not giving it to you, I just hope Pardo can keep it for me for a while. You see, I'm usually busy fighting, what if I accidentally lose it?"

It's actually impossible for it to fall out, after all, the system space can be said to be the safest vault in the world.

"Uh, but... okay!"

Pardo hesitated for a moment before carefully accepting the silver coin. She held it tightly with both hands, as if she was worried that the coin would grow legs and run away, which made Bai Ge chuckle.

"But Boss Bai Ge, how long exactly is 'keeping it for a period of time'? You'd better take it back quickly, otherwise if you accidentally lose it, we... we don't know how to compensate you!"

"Don't worry, you don't need to keep it for long. Just keep it for me for... 50,000 years. When you live to my time, you can return it to me."

"Huh?"

Pardo was stunned.

"By the way, if you lose it, I'll be really upset. You'll have to Pardo me your whole self to get my forgiveness."

Bai Ge chuckled mischievously and scratched her chin as he spoke.

"I'll give myself to you..." Pardo's expression was blank, her tail swaying slightly as she began to fill in the blanks in her mind.

"Were you trying to lose it on purpose just now?" Bai Ge's lips curled up, seeing right through her.

"Hahaha, Bai, Bai Ge, what are you saying? How could I do such a thing?"

Pardo's cheeks flushed, her tail swayed back and forth in a slightly flustered rhythm, and she guiltily looked away. She even went so far as to initiate Artificial Herrscher Form.

He turned himself into a Canned Food cat, grabbed a silver coin, and tried to run away, but was caught by Bai Ge, who then showered him with kisses, hugs, and lifted him high in the air.

"Meow~ Meow~ Meow~~"

Under Bai Ge's masterful cat-petting skills, the cat let out adorable meows and finally calmed down.

Picking up the adorable fallen cat, Bai Ge took Pardo to the backyard of the Golden Courtyard to bask in the sun. Under the comfortable and warm sunlight, the latter quickly fell asleep.

"To have a nap every day and to bask in the sun, that's your dream, Pardo, right? It's such a simple but wonderful dream... You must live to see the future, Pardo."

Bai Ge gazed tenderly at the cat in her arms and said.

"Meow... woo..."

The Cat Anchor unconsciously meowed after falling asleep, as if responding to him. However, what Bai Ge didn't know was that Pardo now had another dream.

That means he can pet the cat every day.

"Whoosh~ Whoosh~ Whoosh~"

The midday sun's rays were so comforting that Bai Ge closed his eyes for a short rest. However, under his deliberate control, this time he entered not a dream, but his own mental space.

Unlike the Deepest Depths Herrscher are imprisoned, Bai Ge's mental space also holds a beautiful prisoner.

"Misteln, do you want to come out for some fresh air?"

"No need. For me, there is no more comfortable place than your mental space, Master."

Bai Ge's mental space has been transformed into a white palace by a bored and eccentric young lady.

At this moment, Misteln sat in an ornate chair, holding a fanfiction book by a Bai, and was reviewing it with great interest.

Bai Ge's eyes twitched, and he snatched the book away and tore it to shreds. In his mind, reading fanfiction with him as the protagonist was simply outrageous!

"Not even allowing such a pastime, Master is such an unreasonable person," Misteln complained.

"Who's really in the wrong here? And if you hadn't betrayed me every time I reincarnated, would I be in this situation now?" Bai Ge rolled his eyes and said.

In order to prevent the Great Honkai when the Herrscher descends, Bai Ge releases his Holy Blood each time, which breaks the boundary between the Schariac Stigmata Space and the real world.

Therefore, Misteln had already awakened when the Herrscher of Reason descended during the First Honkai Eruption event.

Moreover, unlike others, as Bai Ge's Stigmata, she knows Bai Ge's memories, therefore... Misteln remembers the matter of reincarnation, possessing the memories of all ten reincarnations!

However...

Every time Bai Ge placed her in reality, Misteln would tell the Flame-Chasers about the cycle of reincarnation. During the second, third, and fourth reincarnations, this greatly disrupted Bai Ge's plans.

Moreover, Misteln absolutely no remorse!

Her purpose was all too obvious.

Then let's stop Bai Ge from continuing his cycle of reincarnation.

"Master, you and Elysia are both selfish people. You don't care about other people's feelings, you sacrifice again and again, and you have to start over again and again. It's so annoying."

Don't lie, you like me the most.

"...snort!"

Misteln crossed her arms and snorted.

Yes, he's her favorite.

But that's precisely why I can't bear to watch it.

"I don't deny our selfishness, but isn't the result beautiful? Aili ... activated her powers to protect my future, for our era."

"The result of my continuous reincarnation is that I can save more and more people. If I were to reincarnate a dozen or more times, then perhaps no one in the Previous Civilization would have to die."

Bai Ge defended himself by saying that his and Elysia's selfishness saved the world.

He saved the past, Elysia saved the future.

"But you failed to save yourselves!"

Misteln clenched her hands, a look of sadness on the face of this rational young lady.

For her, the Previous Civilization didn't matter; she was the Schariac Stigmata, and the only thing she cared about was Bai Ge.

Watching this person reincarnate again and again in search of hope, trying all sorts of methods but ultimately failing, Misteln felt so heartbroken that she could hardly breathe, as if her heart was about to break.

"Please, Master, stop."

"... This is the last time, I promise."

Bai Ge raised his hand and touched Misteln's snow-white hair, and the latter trembled all over after hearing what he said.

"Really? Don't lie to me, okay?"

"If I'm lying to you, I'll... hand over control of my body to you."

Bai Ge thought for a few seconds before speaking.

"!!!"

Misteln looked incredulous.

She understood what Bai Ge meant by those words: to completely hand over control of the body to her, which could be considered as allowing her to become the dominant personality, provided that Misteln was willing to do so.

It's even possible to lock Bai Ge in the mental space forever.
