HISO Chapter 143
by Volare3001…
That tentacle monster actually waited for its host for so long?!
089 was so shocked that it quickly turned its head to look at its host.
It saw that the youth’s beautiful cheeks, which had just regained a bit of color, were now tinged with paleness again.
His long eyelashes were slightly damp with moisture.
After a long while, Yu An raised his eyes, but even the ending of his words trembled slightly after suppressing some emotions: “…Why tell me this?”
When he was young, Little Yu An could have escaped with the little monster, escaped to another world to grow up together.
Harboring expectations for the future, he died in a car accident. Having just entered the Transmigration Bureau, he accidentally fell into a small world. With nothing but his 18-year-old self, Little Jasmine would have fallen in love with the 19-year-old test subject A001.
But now, he is someone who has been carrying out missions for over a hundred years.
Although his appearance is still the same as it was back then, he has experienced too many things.
And his soul has already been signed over to the Space-Time Bureau, and his subsequent fate is already destined. Moreover, there’s the matter of Tan Si… he must return to the Space-Time Transmigration Bureau.
People have different goals, needs, and concerns at different ages. When facing the same thing, how could they make the same choice without hesitation as they once did?
There are too many cases of lovers who can’t stay together.
Xie Jinsheng can remain the same for a thousand years.
In this aspect, he is… not as brave and sincere as him, nor can he decide on a major life event in a short amount of time.
The woman on the other side suddenly smiled and said:
“Fortunately, you’re not a love brain. Otherwise, two love brains staying together will cause problems sooner or later.”
Yu An: “…………”
089: […]
What a sharp evaluation.
But thinking about it carefully, that tentacle monster seems to want to fill its entire brain with its host all day long.
Isn’t that the ultimate love brain!
After those words were spoken, the atmosphere eased a lot. Yu An unconsciously rubbed the key in his lucky bag and asked:
“Then why has this world been restarted so many times?”
As soon as he spoke, he stopped his movements as if he had a premonition. The woman’s voice came clearly through the light screen—
“Because of the key in your hand.”
She seemed to be able to see his actions.
Yu An paused slightly.
He heard her continue—
“It comes from an ancient legend that as long as you collect them all, you can summon a passage, obtain treasures, and learn the most powerful force in the world. With the power of any one person alone, it is impossible to destroy it before they are all collected.”
This key clearly has symbols similar to the Space-Time Bureau on it, how could she know so clearly.
Yu An pursed his lips and said, “But I am not the most suitable person after all.”
He is weak and powerless.
Before, when he only had one key, he thought that he had a system and that this was a small world, and that he could do his best to protect and complete it.
However, after learning about the origin of the key from the Space-Time Bureau’s power in the vortex of memories, and that Tan Si was also coveting it, he felt that personal ability was ultimately limited.
He never wanted to be alone again like he used to be.
“Child, there is destiny in the dark.” The woman said, “Moreover, legend has it that even if all three keys are collected, only the destined person can open the tunnel. So, destroying it is easier than opening it.”
“Then what if they steal the keys and happen to have the destined person?” Yu An asked.
“Then there’s nothing you can do, accept your fate. This was originally something beyond anyone’s ability.”
089: […]
Yu An: “…”
He felt somewhat comforted.
But no matter how fate arranges it, he will try his best before it arrives. Besides, it also concerns whether he and 089 can return to the Space-Time Bureau.
“So, is this why the end-of-the-world world is being restarted?” Yu An always felt that there was a lack of logical connection.
The woman on the other side did not answer, and even seemed to be talking about something else, as if she had some unspeakable difficulties. She only said:
“Do you still remember that manuscript map? The addresses of the cycles are marked on it. Many of them are people who have awakened from the cycles. If you need it, you can seek their help.”
“As for Xie Jinsheng, he… will be your most effective helper in your next actions. This child is stubborn and has ardent emotions. Once he recognizes someone, he will not change no matter how many times. This is also the reason why he was used in previous cycles.
But now that you have appeared, he will never betray you. You can trust him wholeheartedly, or perhaps— use him.”
Yu An frowned slightly at the last few words and said:
“No, I won’t use him.”
Regardless of whether he learned about Little Jasmine’s past.
Or before that.
In the vortex of memories, he had already decided that after going out, he would try to understand Xie Jinsheng’s heart and then decide to tell the other party about the key.
It’s just that these days he has been tormented by the exhaustion of his soul power and has not had the energy to say it.
And now he understands that the reason why Xie Jinsheng became a villain is because he lost him, not because he really wanted to destroy the world.
So, if Xie Jinsheng is willing, they can act together.
It’s just that if he tells the Space-Time Bureau’s affairs, it will be censored, and he doesn’t know if he can explain it clearly to Xie Jinsheng.
“In short,” Yu An said, “he will be my… most important person, not my stepping stone.”
