Lin Shuang: Is Mei Afraid Because of Me?
He forced her to turn her gaze back to Acheron.
"Speaking of which, I also saw a strange scene involving you. In the scene, for some reason, you were holding my knife and slashing at some being."
"No... you can see all of this??"
The words that Acheron uttered truly made Lin Shuang lose her composure.
Having that strange feeling is one thing.
Why can I even see the things I do in the Illusion?
This is outrageous! What could be causing this?
Is it another Ring?
What other functions does this Ring have? Why doesn't it even come with instructions for use?
Lin Shuang muttered a few words to herself with a complicated expression.
Acheron, however, did not intend to let Lin Shuang get away with it so easily.
"So, what I saw was real?"
"Ah--"
Lin Shuang, who was deep in thought, was pulled back to reality by a single sentence.
And then, embarrassingly, he realized that he had lost his chance to play dumb.
"..."
"..."
Acheron stared at him with a smile, exuding a powerful aura of pressure.
After a brief stalemate, Lin Shuang couldn't hold out any longer and chose to give up.
"I surrender, I'll talk, I'll talk, okay...?"
"Mmm, good girl~"
Acheron smiled and patted Lin Shuang's head, as if coaxing a child, and put a Pastries into Lin Shuang's mouth.
"Um... here's the thing..."
Lin Shuang recounted to Acheron what had happened at Changle Heaven that day.
He then focused on telling Acheron about his experiences in the Illusion.
If it were just a feeling, Lin Shuang wouldn't care so much.
But now that we can already see the footage, isn't this a bit too outrageous?
What's the next step? Should we just watch the live stream?
After finishing her story, Lin Shuang also shared her concerns with Acheron.
But for some reason, Acheron didn't seem very worried.
She secretly touched her Ring and said:
"While it is indeed strange... but before that, I think the more important thing is that you completely lack a proper understanding of Nihility!"
"... I think I understand you quite well."
No, you didn't.
Acheron's tone unconsciously became serious.
Nihility is not something that can be easily attempted.
Even in Illusion.
If one truly perceives the power of The Nihility through this, then reality will also be shrouded in Nihility.
This is not a power that can distinguish between Illusion and reality.
Lin Shuang did indeed know many things about the Nihility.
But it also seems that it was precisely because of her knowledge and her contact with herself that she understood.
This resulted in Lin Shuang having too low a level of vigilance towards Nihility.
To confront the power of The Nihility, and to unleash power by imitating Nihility.
Although both involve contact with Nihility, they are fundamentally different.
The latter is far more dangerous and more likely to become Self-Annihilator, shrouded in the shadow of Nihility.
But Lin Shuang seemed completely unconcerned about falling into Nihility.
This is terrible.
Acheron made no attempt to hide his worry.
Her eyes held an indescribable sadness.
The meaning of my past existence was completely swallowed up by that Black Sun.
Not only were the remains taken away, but even the Remembrance were stolen.
It has reached the point where even its existence is denied.
I've been wandering alone in the universe for far too long.
The Acheron has witnessed too many tragedies.
She was lost and numb, like a passerby in this world, maintaining kindness towards everyone while keeping her distance from everyone.
Or perhaps, in that dazed and confused state, it's inherently difficult to open up to others.
Lin Shuang is different.
It's been far too long.
Lin Shuang disregarded her own life or death, and even the wishes of Acheron.
He tricked her into wearing the Ring, pulling her out of the abyss of Nihility and simultaneously dispelling her past state of confusion.
It didn't take long.
But for Gepard, Lin Shuang has become a new anchor point for Acheron.
This applies both psychologically and physically.
Izumo is a thing of the past, and so is Acheron.
Gepard.
This is her self as she exists beside Lin Shuang.
There was no Raiden, nor was there Bosenmori.
Every time Lin Shuang called out Gepard, she intensified that impression.
Therefore, Gepard extremely disgusted, even repulsed.
Lin Shuang's initiative to approach the Nihility.
I'll do anything.
But only Nihility, only that great sun that never sets.
This is absolutely unacceptable behavior.
The meaning of its previous existence was destroyed by the great sun, witnessed by Raiden Gepard.
And this time, Gepard couldn't accept the possibility of Lin Shuang approaching Nihility.
I can't accept even the slightest possibility.
Lin Shuang stared blankly into Acheron's eyes.
This was the first time she had ever seen Gepard with such a sad and sorrowful expression.
The gentle palm tightened and became forceful.
Is this fear...?
That strong yet gentle Gepard trembles over such a small thing.
And he showed this expression.
"... sorry."
Lin Shuang apologized in a hoarse voice and tried to sit up from Gepard's lap.
Seeing Gepard's expression, she herself became sad.
He reached out and gently hugged Gepard.
He let Gepard's face rest against the inside of his neck.
First.
Lin Shuang suddenly realized that the figure she usually only admired was beautiful.
It actually looks a bit flimsy.
"I'm sorry, Gepard."

Chapter 316 Lin Shuang: Is Gepard afraid because of me?
He rested his head on Lin Shuang's shoulder.
Acheron opened his mouth and bit down hard on the soft flesh of his shoulder.
"Hiss..."
The sudden sharp pain made Lin Shuang instinctively gasp.
"Again?"
The last time Acheron was like this, saying he wanted to cover up the scent of the Firefly.
Who would have thought that, out of the blue, I would be bitten again.
"No the same."
Acheron raised his head.
This time, there was no blood on her lips, only another mark on Lin Shuang's shoulder.
"This time is different..."
Gepard murmured softly, her gaze fixed intently on Lin Shuang.
It was as if she was afraid that Lin Shuang would disappear from her sight in the next second.
This was the first time Lin Shuang had seen Gepard with such an expression.
It's as if a corner of a mask that's been hidden for so long has been lifted.
Lin Shuang gently lowered her forehead and pressed it against Gepard's forehead.
"Okay, I understand."
His hand guided Gepard's fingers, touching the bite mark on his shoulder.
Gepard stroked it quite forcefully.
The force was so strong that Lin Shuang even felt some pain.
For the first time, she realized that Gepard could feel fear.
As well as.
Gepard is worried about her own affairs to this extent.
Through her eyes and expressions.
