Anything Is Possible in Dreams / You're My Master, You Know
Or perhaps they were simply spirits of the dead...
Yuxian remained silent for a long time before continuing, "Could we stay here for the night? It may be a bit abrupt, but you know we're probably afraid to go to the market..."
Yuxian and his group were all Unconquered Seed, and the discrimination against Unconquered Seed in this world was very serious, making it extremely difficult for them to find accommodation in the market.
Humanity in this world has been wiped out, and Yuxian and his group all appear to be human. Nigolan pondered this.
Finally, for reasons unknown, he nodded and agreed to Yuxian's request, allowing them to stay the night.
"Thanks!"
After Yuxian expressed his gratitude with a smile, the children finally received the signal and quickly ran over to communicate with the children there.
The scene suddenly became lively.
Yuxian smiled and said to Nigolan, "You see, there are advantages to living here, aren't there?"
Nigolan glanced at him but didn't say anything.
Chapter 2, Section 147: Anything Can Be Dreamed Of
Nigolan led Yuxian into the house. There were many empty rooms in the Fairy Warehouse, enough for Yuxian others to stay temporarily.
However, these rooms have been uninhabited for many years and are somewhat dirty and messy, requiring cleaning before people can move in.
That didn't matter much; Yuxian and Mash readily accepted the task.
The children have all gone to play, so the goddess and queen don't need them to lift a finger.
The two of them carefully cleaned out several rooms. Mash had prepared all the daily necessities, which could be taken out from the shield space.
Yuxian felt embarrassed to bother Nigolan with these small matters; it was already a great favor for her to be able to stay here.
This place is considered a secret location for the military and the Orlando Trade Association. Is it really okay for Nigolan to let them stay here so casually?
When Yuxian and Mash finished tidying up the room and came out, Ishtar was chatting with Nigolan, and Heracles was playing with the children. Everyone seemed to have quickly integrated into the group.
Yuxian I passed by Ishtar, I overheard her asking Nigolan questions about the merchant guild. It seems the goddess is truly never forgetting to increase her wealth!
Heracles was playing with the children on the playground outside. He was surrounded by the children, each of them wishing they could be carried on his shoulders.
They really enjoyed the game and found it very interesting, so they all eagerly and noisily competed to play.
Heracles was not bothered at all and granted almost every request, taking turns picking up the children and placing them on his shoulders so that they could experience the joy of standing on the shoulders of a giant.
He really likes children, which is something he shares with Yuxian. This is probably the common language between tough guys! Yuxian thought shamelessly.
The children of the Fairy Warehouse were not at all hostile to the newcomers; they easily accepted these new friends who had only recently arrived.
Yuxian knew that this had a lot to do with their identities.
These children were created as weapons and kept here in captivity; they basically lack the sense of crisis that ordinary children have.
I feel lost about life and death.
What a malicious world! Yuxian loathed this kind of world.
If the birth of the Cursed Child of the 'Black Bullet' world was an accident, then the birth of these Golden Fairies was man-made.
In order to find someone who can use the Holy Sword to fight the 'Beast', they went so far as to create such an existence.
What's most infuriating is that they haven't been treated well; they're being managed in this remote corner like ordinary weapons.
When the time comes, let them self-destruct, to perish together with the 'beasts'.
Thinking about all this, Yuxian felt an urge to kill.
Reason told him not to meddle in other people's business; finding the right person was his most important goal.
However, he is not an absolutely rational person, and often makes impulsive decisions.
This time, he's going to do something unnecessary again.
Yuxian stood at the door, quietly watching the children playing outside, his heart filled with unease.
They shouldn't have been born, but since they are, they should be allowed to live happily, like normal people.
"What are you thinking about, senior?"
Mash walked over; she had already noticed that Yuxian's mood was a bit off, but she hadn't said anything.
Yuxian shook his head and said, "It's nothing."
"It's okay if you don't want to say, senior. Please be sure to tell me if you need any help!" Mash said with a smile.
"Mm," Yuxian responded softly.
He hasn't figured out what to do yet, so it's too early to say anything now.
He will naturally tell everyone when the time comes, since he can't accomplish many things on his own.
"That's good." Mash received Yuxian's response and didn't ask any more questions. She said, "I'm going to help Miss Nigolan prepare dinner."
After saying that, Mash left without bothering Yu Xian Yuxian.
Yuxian continued to sit there quietly, lost in thought.
Everyone ate dinner together, and it was a very lively meal.
With so many children, it's inevitable that there will be some noise and commotion, but Yuxian felt that this was not a bad feeling.
Mash's cooking skills are now quite good, and the children in the Fairy Warehouse are very satisfied, constantly saying things like "it's delicious."
This gave Mash a great sense of accomplishment.
After dinner, the children were asked to go back to their rooms to rest early, Yuxian and the others also went back to their own rooms.
The night was quiet. This was a secluded corner where no one would come. There was no other noise except for the particularly loud chirping of insects in the grass outside.
Yuxian couldn't sleep; he was suffering from insomnia...
Quietly getting out of bed without waking the child beside me, Yuxian walked out of the house and onto the open ground outside.
The night was beautiful. Looking up at the sky, the bright moonlight and the deep starry sky were clearly visible.
Yuxian found a step and sat down, quietly admiring the beautiful starry sky.
A jumble of thoughts kept surging through his mind, disturbing his peace of mind.
"Oh! Master, you're quite the ladies' man, enjoying the night view and counting stars. Have you found Venus yet?"
Ishtar suddenly walked over, her tone teasing.
Yuxian glanced at her and said slowly, "The Venus Goddess is right here beside me. Why would I look for Venus? If I want to see her, I can just ask you to take me there."
Seeing that Yuxian wasn't in a good mood, Ishtar smiled and said, "What's wrong? Not in a good mood?"
"Yeah, I'm in a really bad mood," Yuxian sighed. "Why don't you take me for a drive? Maybe it'll cheer me up."
"Going for a drive in the middle of the night? Are you alright?"
Ishtar gave Yuxian a look that seemed to say, "Are you out of your mind? Why are you going for a drive in the middle of the night instead of sleeping? You must have nothing better to do!"
"How about you take me down there to vent? I feel so choked up right now."
Yuxian pointed to the ground, knowing that Ishtar understood what he was saying.
The ground is now a world of beasts; no living people survive there. Humanity has long been extinct.
The various races that are now barely surviving on the floating islands can only rely on the battles of the Golden Fairies to fight against the 'Beasts'. These children are the protectors of this world.
"I think you should just go to sleep; anything can happen in your dreams."
Ishtar turned and left. It wasn't that she was unwilling to help Yuxian, but she decided against it, as it would be of no use to Yuxian in his current state.
Venting through killing will only lead to deeper problems, and the goddess would naturally not agree to such a thing.
Yuxian didn't care; he was just saying it casually.
After Ishtar left, Yuxian continued to sit there gazing at the starry sky.
He was wide awake.
Chapter 3, Section 148: You Are My Master
Yuxian continued to sit outside in a daze; Ishtar's disturbance did not make him want to go back to sleep.
After a while, a shadow fell over him, blocking out the moonlight that was shining on him.
Yuxian turned his head and saw that it was Heracles.
No one knew when he had quietly come to Yuxian's side.
"Royal Lord..."
Heracles called out to Yuxian in his still-unfamiliar voice.
"Can't you sleep either?" Yuxian asked softly.
"Don't worry..."
Heracles' words startled Yuxian; he had come to comfort him.
Yuxian shook his head. "I'm fine, I just couldn't sleep, so I came out for some fresh air."
Heracles stared at Yuxian blankly for a while, then quietly left.
But soon he noticed that someone had come to his side.
"Who is it this time? Mash?"
Yuxian said somewhat helplessly that he did not look back this time.
Yuxian inwardly mocked himself, realizing he was truly an unqualified Master, causing everyone to worry about him.
"It's me."
Upon hearing this, Yuxian quickly turned around and said in surprise, "Master, what brings you here too?"
"Can't I come?" Scathach said casually, then Yuxian.
"That's not what I meant, it's just..." Yuxian didn't know how to say it.
Scathach ignored his words and slowly asked, "Are you worried about the children?"
"Yes." Yuxian nodded. "Master should know about their situation."
As the queen of the Shadow Land, Scathach naturally learned the identities of these children immediately.
The Shadow Land is the realm of the dead and the undead. Scathach controls everything in the Shadow Land, the boundary between the living and the dead, and the gate to that demonic realm.
"These children have no future... not even a present..." Yuxian said in a low voice, his expression tinged with sadness.
Scathach gently shook her head. "Their future is uncertain."
"Huh?" Yuxian was taken aback; Scathach's words surprised him.
Seeing Yuxian's puzzled look, Scathach slowly said, "I've said it before, Master, your future is full of fog and uncertainty."
"The future of these children has already changed the moment you move into this house; their future will be closely related to yours."
Yuxian frowned in thought, digesting Scathach's words.
Scathach meant that these children's future would change because of him, which gave Yuxian confidence, but also put a lot of pressure on him.
"Master, you'll help me, right?"
Yuxian looked at Scathach with expectant eyes. In the night, Scathach's figure, dressed in purple, was faintly visible, appearing somewhat mysterious.
Scathach smiled faintly, without immediately answering Yuxian.
She stood up, turned around, and walked into the house.
"You are my Master..."
Scathach's soft voice drifted from afar, reaching Yuxian's ears.
Yuxian's mood immediately improved, the gloom in his heart dissipated considerably, and the road ahead suddenly became much clearer.
