Kallen: You're the Only Truth in This False World (Continued)
As a result, all the nobles of Kolosten were in trouble.
The two white-haired bandits brazenly "infiltrated" their mansion, eliminated them, and emptied their gold coins. Then, Bai Ge took Kallen and flew into the sky, showering the common people with a rain of gold coins.
"Uh, weren't we supposed to be infiltrating? Bai Ge, you're neither an assassin nor a phantom thief."
"Who says otherwise? Haven't I already taken care of all the enemies who saw me?" Bai Ge put his hands on his hips, indicating that this was the basic operation of the Fourth Calamity.
Kallen felt as if she had opened the door to a new world. Thinking back to the cautious way she had sneaked in, she couldn't help but marvel at how audacious people were five hundred years later.
The guards of those nobles were of course powerless to resist. Even if they went to Schicksal to report the incident, it would be useless. Schicksal's Valkyrie and Knights were almost wiped out by Bai Ge.
However, since their execution was scheduled for the next day, the two needed to spend the night together, so Bai Ge and Kallen took over the mansion of a wealthy nobleman.
Then Otto in the real world nearly had his eyes pop out, because he saw Bai Ge and Kallen lying in a bed.
Otto: (It's fake, it's fake, it's all fake! I need to stay calm! I need to stay composed! This is all just happening in the virtual world! The real Kallen already... cough 500 years ago!)
This guy accidentally hurt himself even more.
To maximize combat power, Otto did not immediately release the Valkyrie, Honkai Beast, and Herrscher data entities he had prepared to attack Bai Ge.
Instead, they planned to unleash their full power when the Honkai Beast rampage tomorrow.
But at this moment, he really wanted to launch a full-scale attack to stop Bai Ge and Kallen from sleeping together.
Otto: "Endure! I'll endure! To ensure Bai Ge is killed, this is something I can handle! Anyway, it's not the real Kallen... You two, get away from me, you bastards!"
Bai Ge: "I feel like I heard the roar of a certain loser, which makes me feel inexplicably happy. Hmph~ I really want Mr. Green Tor Apocalypse to see this scene."
The moonlight cast a silvery glow, streaming through the window onto the luxurious bed in the nobleman's house. Bai Ge and Kallen's white hair shimmered in this light, pure and beautiful.
"Um, aren't we moving a little too fast? Do we really have to sleep together tonight?"
Kallen's cheeks were so red they looked like they were about to drip water.
He looked at the double bed in front of him, then at the White Youth beside him, and had absolutely no confidence that he would be able to sleep tonight.
"Of course there's no need~"
Bai Ge stretched, then reached under the bed and pulled out an assassin Valkyrie.
Then, amidst the screams and cries of the other, he threw her out of the window, where she struck another Valkyrie who was aiming a musket at a large tree in the distance, thus achieving a double kill.
"It's just that being closer makes it easier for me to protect you. If Kallen is confident that she can withstand Schicksal's night attack, there's a clean big bed next door for her to sleep in. But it's okay if she can't. I can go to Schicksal's dungeon to pick her up tomorrow."
"Um, then let's forget about it."
Kallen recalled the cold dungeons of her past lives, where she could only sleep on the ground and was even accompanied by rats. She then decisively chose to lie down on the bed and cover her face with the blanket.
"You can't do anything reckless, Bai Ge. Right now, I only like you a little bit."
How high is this?
"About... the height of the tree you just hit."
"That sounds pretty high. Don't worry, I won't do anything bad to you. If I do, it will be after I take you outside and create a real body for you. Haha~ Goodnight."
Bai Ge yawned; he could sense that the flow of time in this virtual world was different from that outside.
Although it feels like 24 hours a day.
But in reality, 10 hours have passed in the virtual world, while only 1 hour has passed in the outside world.
(This way I don't have to worry about spending too much time and making Bronya and the others anxious, and then they'll just take off my helmet. By the way, I had a lot of fun today, time for bed~)
Bai Ge wasn't worried about anyone sneaking up on him while he was sleeping.
Aside from the girls he trusted, if any outsider dared to attack him while he was asleep...
Even in an unconscious state, Bai Ge could still kill him by relying on his physical instincts.
Bai Ge: (I love killing people in my dreams, anyone dare to try!)
Kallen stared in disbelief as the sleeping Bai Ge easily dealt with several Schicksal assassins. This damned sense of security was something she had never experienced in her tens of thousands of reincarnations.
To be honest, she had already given up. In the hundreds or thousands of past reincarnations, after trying all the possibilities, Kallen stopped struggling.
Because she had come to understand that no matter what she did, she could not escape this world whose purpose was to kill her.
No matter how much preparation I make, in the end, the claws of that Honkai Beast will inevitably pierce me through.
Since death is the inevitable outcome, it's better to simply follow the script of this world and save some energy than to waste it on futile struggles.
However, the flame of hope that Kallen thought had been extinguished was now rekindled.
"Oh~ my angel, if only you could have come sooner."
Looking at that sleeping face so close to hers, Kallen felt a sense of peace she had never felt before. She unconsciously moved even closer, and even moved from her own pillow to Bai Ge's pillow.
She suddenly felt a little reluctant to fall asleep like this, and wanted to spend the whole night watching Bai's sleeping face.
Kallen's gaze was somewhat unfocused. Unconsciously, she moved closer again, until Bai Ge's lips were almost touching her cheek, and she could feel his breath...
"What... what's wrong with me..."
Realizing that something was wrong with her, Kallen blushed and distanced herself from Bai Ge.
Looking at that unguarded sleeping face, Kallen felt an inexplicable charm drawing her closer, and she couldn't help but wonder why she felt this way.
Even though today was only their first meeting.
She clearly didn't know much about Bai Ge.
Why do I find myself wanting to get closer to him without even realizing it?
Why am I uncontrollably drawn to Bai Ge?
Keep in mind that her surname is Kaslana, not Sanya, so there's no story about her giving herself away for free just because she meets Bai.
The quiet night was perfect for contemplation, Kallen quickly came to an answer, her eyes slightly widening in surprise.
Kallen: "So that's how it is, because you Bai Ge, are the only reality in this world..."
This is a false world. Whether it's the sky, the earth, the people living in this world, or even Kallen herself, everything is just an illusion.
But Bai Ge is different.
He is the only truth in this false world!
As someone who knows the truth about this world, and as someone who is also a member of this falsehood, Kallen instinctively craves Bai Ge's authenticity and is unconsciously drawn to him.
Furthermore, Bai Ge was the only turning point she had encountered after waiting for tens of thousands of reincarnations, the only hope that could lead her to escape this hellish cycle of reincarnation, which made Kallen feel an involuntary sense of closeness.
If Bai Ge is likened to a candle of hope, then Kallen at this moment is like a Moth Chasing Fire, instinctively chasing after it even knowing she might be ignited.
"In that case, there's no way around it. You'd better take good care of me, my angel. Remember to think of a nice name for me later."
After figuring out her situation, Kallen gave a helpless smile, and then, no longer suppressing her instincts, she once again closed the distance between herself and Bai Ge.
Upon feeling a soft "pillow" close by, the sleeping Bai Ge immediately hugged her.
Kallen shuddered violently, but ultimately offered no resistance.
"For this one night only, my angel~"
When the next day arrived.
When Bai opened his eyes, he was so shocked that he couldn't move.
"Holy crap, what's going on?"
Bai Ge checked the situation and found that his hands were wrapped around Kallen's waist.
Kallen's hands were wrapped around his neck. She wasn't a very good sleeping posture. Like Kiana, she slept like a sloth, with her legs wrapped around him.
Meanwhile, there were several Valkyrie sent by Schicksal to assassinate them, both on and under the bed, but they were all unconscious.
"... It's also possible that I'm dreaming. If I just close my eyes and then open them again, I should wake up."
Bai Ge closed his eyes and muttered to himself, then opened them again. This time, Kallen also opened her eyes, and their reflections were mirrored in each other's eyes.
"Um, Kallen, good morning?"
"Hmm, good morning, Bai, Bai Ge."
Both of them blushed at the same time. At this distance, where they could hear each other's heartbeats, many things simply couldn't be hidden.
"Ahem, it's still early, why don't you sleep a little longer?"
"Okay, that works too, I'm actually a little sleepy..."
After they finished speaking, they awkwardly closed their eyes again, but neither of them let go of the other.
... Meanwhile, in the real world...
"Wake up!!"
Otto grabbed the screen in front of him and shook it violently, as if he wanted to throw it to the ground. He had completely lost his composure.
He now deeply regrets creating this hidden data. Bai Ge has done everything he's ever dreamed of, while he himself can't do anything and can only watch helplessly.
Otto could have directly altered this virtual world using his authority, but for some reason, he discovered that Bai Ge was being protected by a strange force.
Unless Bai is defeated in the virtual world, external interference will have no effect on him; otherwise, Otto would have already used his authority to delete him.
"It's alright, it's alright, this painful time will soon be over. Today is not only the day Kallen is executed, but also the day you, Bai Ge, are executed!"
