[BL, MTL] Unlimited Cycles of Death (Unlimited Flow)

Chapter 99: Butterfly Throne (8)

No matter how far or near, Mu Qin couldn't see the man's face clearly.

The other party's face was submerged in the darkness, surrounded by layers of fog, like a huge mystery, slowly corroding Mu Qin's heart with unknown and fear.

However, although Mu Qin couldn't see the man's face clearly, he could clearly see other parts of the man's body.

For example, this person is wearing a black dress...it should be a dress, that kind of retro European style clothing, with wide sleeves, a waist, tights and boots. The clothes are covered with golden embroidery and pleats, very luxurious and restrained.

The black dress set off the slender and beautiful figure of the man, the skin of the arms exposed under the sleeves was pale, and the chest did not rise and fall, it seemed that he could not breathe like a living person.

Mu Qin visually judged that this person's height and figure should be similar to his own...or in other words, this person's body shape was almost exactly the same as Mu Qin's.

"Who are you?" Mu Qin subconsciously asked, he is now bound on the Butterfly Throne, and the entire map of the throne is under his induction. But this strange man suddenly appeared in front of him, and he was so close that he was almost standing in front of Mu Qin, but Mu Qin didn't notice it.

Instinctively, Mu Qin knew that the identity of this man would definitely horrify him.

But this strange man didn't answer Mu Qin's question. He was still standing in front of Mu Qin. He seemed to be observing Mu Qin. From his blurred face, Mu Qin could feel the burning gaze of the other party.

After a long time, this faceless man had a new movement. He took a step closer to Mu Qin, stretched out his hand, and stroked Mu Qin's cheek with his cold fingers.

When being touched by him, the chilly touch made Mu Qin tremble uncontrollably.

As if because of Mu Qin's trembling, the Faceless Man withdrew his fingers as quickly as an electric shock, and stepped back a little, distanced himself from Mu Qin.

Then the man finally spoke to Mu Qin: "... mine."

"Your?" Mu Qin expressed doubts about this sudden sentence, he narrowed his eyes slightly, as if thinking of something.

"You are mine now." The Faceless Man said faintly, his voice seemed very ethereal, as if it came from a far, far away place, and he couldn't distinguish between men and women.

His words made Mu Qin suddenly think of Jin, and the appearance of Jin when he shouted "You will be mine sooner or later!" to him insanely.

Mu Qin couldn't help but sneered at the faceless man: "I said, my belonging...is never yours to decide.

" It has always belonged to me."

Mu Qin didn't want to argue with the other party about such inexplicable issues, he knew that even if he refuted aloud, the faceless man might not be able to listen. So Muqin

said straight to the point: "You can't... that is the so-called will of the world, right?"

reaction.

And the other party also said inexplicable words like "you are mine", combined with the information that Jin had revealed to Mu Qin before, Mu Qin could easily guess the identity of this faceless man.

In fact, what surprised Mu Qin the most was that he originally thought that something like the "will of the world" was more similar to some kind of emotionless machine, but he didn't expect that the other party could show people in human form.

Thinking about it carefully, Jin's state of believer also reflects the state of the "lord" he believes in to a certain extent. The more Jin is fanatical about Mu Qin, the more it shows the obsession of the will of the world with Mu Qin.

The Faceless Man did not refute Mu Qin's guess, he remained silent.

The silence of the other party means acquiescence.

Thinking that the faceless person in front of him might really be the legendary "Will of the World", Mu Qin couldn't help lowering his head, suppressed his body to tremble slightly, and hugged Zhou Yue's cold body tightly in his arms, as if he was facing this empty body. The shell seeks a kind of strength and courage.

"You did everything possible to get me on this throne, not just to say to me: 'You are mine'... This kind of ridiculous words?" Mu Qin tried to relax, trying to let his heart maximize calm down.

Always maintain a state of calm to indifference, easily erasing all your emotions.

"I've worked hard for a long time..." The faceless man ignored the sarcasm hidden in Mu Qin's words. He approached Mu Qin, held one of Mu Qin's hands, and said softly, "I've worked hard, brother. Why do you Don't you even look at me?"

Mu Qin suddenly opened his eyes wide and raised his head, staring at the man in front of him who couldn't see his face clearly, his inner panic was beyond words.

Clever as Mu Qin, combined with the sudden and long dream before him, he figured out the identity of the Faceless Man almost instantly. Without thinking, Mu Qin tentatively asked, "Ashin?"

"...you called me...what? "Mu Qin suddenly revealed the identity of the faceless man, which made the faceless man stunned.

Then the faceless man was so happy that he rushed up to Mu Qin like a child, and hugged Mu Qin's shoulder suddenly, "You remember me!? You haven't forgotten me! I knew you wouldn't forget me! Brother ..."

Mu Qin didn't make a sound, he froze in place stiffly, letting the faceless man hug him tightly.

He actually didn't know who the Faceless Man was, and he didn't think of anything related to Ashin at all.

Everything is only from that unfounded dream.

Therefore, when the faceless man happily called him brother, Mu Qin couldn't give any response. Subconsciously... Mu Qin knew that he was not his brother.

But if he's not Ashin's older brother, Mu, who is he?

After the short-term excitement, the faceless man quickly restrained his emotions. He let go of Mu Qin's arms, put his hands on Mu Qin's shoulders, and said to Mu Qin: "I have thought about many scenes of us meeting again, and I even thought you would forget me forever... that's great , Brother, so you still remember me... Great, great... I thought..."

"Think I gave up on you?" Mu Qin followed the other party's words.

When he said this, Mu Qin himself felt terrible, and he almost instinctively began to assume the role, pretending that he was really Ashin's brother.

Or, is he at all?

"Brother, I knew you wouldn't give up on me." The faceless man couldn't hold back and hugged Mu Qin again. He hugged Mu Qin tightly, but Mu Qin couldn't feel the slightest warmth from him.

But in the process of the faceless man embracing Mu Qin, the corpse that Mu Qin held tightly in his arms became the biggest obstacle between them, so the faceless man lowered his head and glanced at Zhou Yue in Mu Qin's arms , sneered and said in a helpless and doting voice: "Brother, how long will you hold this toy

?" , he couldn't understand every word the faceless man said.

"You are mine, Mu Qin. You don't need anyone else except me." The faceless man's words were meaningful, and at this time he suddenly stopped calling Mu Qin "brother", but Called Mu Qin's name directly.

The faceless man reached out, grabbed Zhou Yue's collar in Mu Qin's arms, and lifted Zhou Yue up.

The precious Zhou Yue in his arms was snatched away, and Mu Qin instinctively reached out and grabbed Zhou Yue's arm to prevent it from being snatched.

But at the same time that Mu Qin grabbed Zhou Yue's arm and wanted to take it back, Mu Qin felt the "sight" of the faceless man, the kind of sight projected from an extremely cold abyss, focused on Mu Qin's On his body, Mu Qin had goose bumps all over his body. Mu Qin tried his best to suppress the trembling of his body, and there was an indescribable...fear in his heart.

The illusion of being irresistible surrounds Mu Qin's heart. Fear spreads its teeth and claws to occupy Mu Qin's brain. Every cell in his body seems to hiss and howl in Mu Qin's ear, but Mu Qin doesn't know why he is afraid.

Fortunately, fear failed to defeat Mu Qin's rationality, and the rational Mu Qin chose to compromise.

He took a slow and deep breath to calm his beating heart, and then let go of Zhou Yue's arm little by little.

Mu Qin watched helplessly as the faceless man lifted Zhou Yue away from his arms, but he couldn't say a word to express his anger and rejection.

"It's just a toy." The faceless man seemed to feel Mu Qin's reluctance. He lifted Zhou Yue's body up in front of Mu Qin, and looked at Zhou Yue's blood-stained, stained and ashen face.

He comforted Mu Qin with a smile, "Toys will break, you see...he's already broken." Before he finished speaking, the faceless

man grabbed Zhou Yue's throat, and terrifying power spread out from his palm. Visible form, forming a black, liquid-like substance of unknown origin. These black unknown substances quickly spread to Zhou Yue's whole body, separated and degraded Zhou Yue's body, melting like a burning candle.

If it was someone else, perhaps Mnuchin would not have cared.

But that's no one else.

Mu Qin lowered his head, almost exerting all his efforts to restrain the heat from his eyes. So he didn't dare to look at what was happening in front of him, and he felt that his mind was in chaos.

He thought he needed some time to digest these things, these unknown things that he still couldn't understand, and all kinds of emotions boiling in his head.

But the Faceless Man didn't give Mu Qin a chance to digest these. After decomposing Zhou Yue's body with an unknown ability, he clapped his hands and sat down beside Mu Qin - the Butterfly Throne was big enough for the two of them to sit together intimately.

Sitting next to Mu Qin, the faceless man lowered his head and stroked the back of Mu Qin's hand with his cold fingers, his voice was gentle, "Don't be afraid, Mu Qin. I will be with you for the rest of the time."

Mu Qin didn't answer, and sat stiffly, still lowering his head unconsciously.

The faceless man next to him didn't mind his silence and boredom at all, and said in a joyful tone: "We will stay here forever, and nothing will separate us again." Putting his arms around Mu Qin's waist, he took Mu Qin into his arms. He pressed the back of Mu Qin's head and let Mu Qin's head rest on his shoulders.

The gentle voice continued: "Just like before, okay? Brother, I am you, and you are me, integrated into one body and never separated."

The words of the faceless man made Mu Qin tremble suddenly.

After being silent for a long time, Mu Qin asked: "Are you really Ashin?" The faceless

man was very helpless, but still said gently and patiently: "I call you brother...Of course I am Ashin."

"No You are too gentle and decisive." Mu Qin said hoarsely, "Ashin is not this kind of character...Ashin, be more lively."

This is not what Mu Qin should say.

The keen Mu Qin suddenly felt the silence around him, and the air seemed to freeze. The faceless man slowly let go of Mu Qin's arms, and then slowly grabbed Mu Qin's throat with his right hand. slow contraction.

His strength was so great that he suffocated Mu Qin until his mind went blank in a short time.

The faceless man's voice was no longer as gentle as before, but became gloomy and ruthless: "You are not Ashin, how do you know his character?"

Mu Qin, who was pinched by the throat, smiled bitterly: "So...you... You... are not Ashin..."

"No, I am Ashin! I am Ashin!" The faceless man suddenly became extremely irritable, and the hand pinching Mu Qin's throat became more and more forceful, and Mu Qin could no longer think. He even rolled his eyes, his eyes were pitch black, his consciousness was ups and downs in the dark tide, and finally returned to calm.

...

It seems that no matter how deep the feelings are, they are no match for time.

The two brothers Amu and Axin are growing up slowly. They have grown taller and have small muscles that have been trained for a long time. Although he is of yellow race, but because he has been living in the high latitudes of northern Europe, he has fair skin and deep facial features, giving him a feeling of mixed race. Tall and handsome, he attracts the favor of many young girls in the village.

Amu is not very interested in those girls who are stepping forward. He is calm and indifferent, exuding an aura of refusal from thousands of miles away, but he doesn't want this "coldness" and inaccessibility, which will arouse more girls' frenzy The pursuit...or should I say the desire to conquer?

The opposite of Ah Mu is Ashin. The more optimistic and lively Ashin is very gentle to the girls, but he also keeps his distance politely, because so far, his favorite girl is still the girl in the village who is two years older than him. Suriel.

About to reach puberty, Ashin, who is about to turn sixteen this year, is a little bit ready to move. From time to time, he wants to find an opportunity to get close to his "goddess" Su Lier, because she is two years older, and Su Lier has already started to follow her father in the early years. Working, when the dusk ends, she can be seen returning from the forest with her father.

Suril's father is Taya, a hunter who lives by hunting in the forest. Since his wife died of weakness shortly after giving birth to Suriel, Taya never thought about remarrying. The thick man who weighed 180 pounds didn't know how to take care of the little girl who was only a few years old. I was afraid of falling anywhere, so I had to hand it over to the women in the village to take care of it.

Usually when Taya went hunting in the woods, Suriel would be fostered by other women, and Taya would pick up her daughter when she came back from hunting.

But when Suriel turned eleven, Taya took her daughter with her and took her to go hunting, and would stay in the forest for ten days and a half months before coming back. During this period, Taya taught her daughter everything she had learned throughout her life, such as hunting skills, making and arranging traps, using shotguns, and handling prey.

So, after a few years, Su Lier's temperament has taken on an entirely new look, her body is full of decisive lingering, and her will and character have been fully tempered.

She was taller than many of the girls in the village, and even taller than some of the boys. After training, she has a very fit figure and slightly wheat-colored skin, with beautiful blond hair and blue eyes.

Especially when she appeared in the village wearing a hunter's uniform and holding a shotgun, the male compatriots would naturally gather around her and praise her without hesitation.

Ashin is also one of her admirers. In fact, Ashin has liked Sulier very much since she was a child. At that time, Sulier was just a little girl with a little bit of pride, but when Sulier became a hunter, her charming The temperament attracts Ashin more and more, making Ashin fascinated by him.

"Brother! I saw her in the forest again today!" Ashin yelled at his brother as soon as he entered the door, "Suriel and her father teamed up to kill a bear! A black bear, they took the bear skin and meat, etc. Bring them all back, and everyone in the village is watching."

Amu closed the book he was reading, secretly suppressed his inner anxiety, and said flatly: "Hunting a black bear...that's what hunters should do Something, right?"

"It's not that simple." Ashin disagreed, and he flaunted his teeth and claws exaggeratedly, "Black bears are terrible, and some experienced hunters dare not provoke them easily!"

Amu smiled lightly: "I On the contrary, I feel that wolves should not be provoked."

Amu didn't seem to like to discuss too much with Ashin on the topic of hunters, so he changed his mind calmly: "Let's not talk about that, our sixteenth birthday is coming soon , my father asked a tailor to order two sets of dresses for us, and he asked us to try to see if they fit."

"Gowns?" Ashin asked puzzled, "Why do you wear dresses? The previous birthdays were not just casual parties. Is it all right?"

Amu smiled wryly: "For the sixteenth coming-of-age ceremony, my father will hold a banquet for us and invite people from the village to the manor, have you forgotten?"

Ashin slapped his head suddenly: "I really forgot It's over!"

"But my father is too grand." Ashin didn't particularly like this banquet, he complained: "Other boys in the village were just small gatherings when they were adults, and he had to hold a banquet after drinking and confessing to the girl he loves. It makes us look out of tune with other people."

Amu said solemnly: "My father is Russian, we are his adopted sons, and we have been registered as Russian natives, so we are different from others."

Amu's words made Amu The letter fell silent.

At that time, the country of Estonia was ruled by Russia. After ruling Estonia, many Russians immigrated to Estonia for various purposes. In other words, Estonia is a "colony" of Russia.

Since it is a colony, after the Russians came to Estonia, facing these native Estonian residents, they naturally showed a sense of superiority in every way. In serious cases, they even oppressed the native Estonians at will because of various discrimination and contradictions. Some Estonian residents do not have a good impression of Russians.

Menshak is a Russian and lives in Estonia with his two adopted sons. Although he lives in a very remote village close to the woods, and Menshak gets along very well with the Estonian residents in the village. Menshak even takes out his own Part of the assets to support the villagers, but only limited to this small village.

After walking out of the village, the outside is a completely different world. The colonists are rampant, and the local residents who are oppressed can only live with their heads down and trembling. Irreconcilable conflicts always break out in such a period.

Brothers Amu and Ashin are very clear that although most people in the village are very friendly to the Menshake family, some are hostile to them. When they first moved here, this kind of hostility was not so deep. , but as time goes by, the contradiction seems to be further expanded.

During such a tense period, Menshak held a coming-of-age banquet for his two sons with great fanfare, which will undoubtedly make those hostiles feel unbalanced. Madness thrives on hatred, without the ability to know what will happen next.

"That's why I said, it's better not to hold this kind of banquet?" Ashin undoubtedly didn't want to intensify the conflict. Recently, he could feel that some young and vigorous youths in the village were staring at him maliciously.

Amu said: "Father means that if there are conflicts, he can speak out openly and honestly at the banquet. He believes that face-to-face communication and conversation can solve problems. So this banquet is not only for the adulthood of the two of us, but also for my father. The people in the village express their sincerity." After Ah Mu

said this, Ashin stretched out his hand and scratched his head, and said with a smile: "That's right, escaping can't solve any problems, we really should deal with them head-on... brother and father are fine Smart, you can't do it like me!"

Ashin smiled brightly, and Ah Mu couldn't help reaching out and rubbing his younger brother's head, and said to him, "Let's go try on the dress."

After that, the two brothers tried on it. I took a look at the dress that Menshak had prepared early in the morning. The style of the dress was a popular pattern in Northern Europe at that time. It was a long, wide-sleeved dress with a large area of ​​black, with gold embroidery on it, and white frills on the collar and cuffs. The waist and trouser legs are tight, and with boots, the two children look very handsome.

Ashin walked around in front of the mirror in a dress for a long time, and asked Ah Mu about ten times whether he looked handsome or not, and Ah Mu answered over and over again tirelessly: "Good-looking, handsome."

"Great! "

Ashin straightened his chest in front of the mirror excitedly, and announced loudly: "I must confess to Su Lier at the banquet!" Behind him, A Mu with lowered eyebrows silently clenched his fists.

"We should always be together." Amu murmured to himself, his voice was so low that Ashin, who was immersed in excitement, didn't hear it.

...

Mu Qin woke up again. When he woke up, he was a little dazed, and lay in one position for a long time.

Then he sat up and realized that he was still on the throne map, still on the throne.

It's just that there is no faceless man around, probably that guy has already left.

Mu Qin reached out and touched his throat. There were still blue bruises on his neck that had been severely pinched. Even with the self-healing effect of the death card, the pain still could not be completely erased.

Mu Qin had no doubt that he had been strangled to death by that faceless man just now, the kind that even broke his neck, it was just the death card that brought Mu Qin back to life.

Mu Qin helplessly rubbed his neck, smiled and said to himself: "It's really cruel."

After rubbing his neck for a long time, Mu Qin felt that he had recovered. He took a deep breath and bent his legs on the throne to meditate.

"That guy really isn't Ah Xin..." Mu Qin continued to talk to himself, "...and I'm not Ah Mu either."
