Chapter 53.1 – Reader: The call from the artifact.
Du Ze opened his eyes and saw Xiu’s perfect chin. He was lying pillowed on Xiu’s thigh and he was wearing his clothes again, which were now dry and clean. It seems that Xiu put the clothes back on him. Du Ze did not feel any discomfort on his body; this was obviously the work of his 0-point restore ability.
Xiu was looking out into the distance, as though he was thinking deeply about something. Du Ze’s gaze moved downwards and saw the blond youth’s bandaged chest oozing blood. His wounds must have opened. As for the cause…
Haha.
At the thought of yesterday’s disharmonious scene, some silly, cute person wanted to cover his face. He and the Moe Lord rolled around in the sheets without a care, even though they were out in the wilderness and Xiu was injured. How crazy were they? But if it happened again, Du Ze, with tears in his heart, had to admit that he still wouldn’t refuse the Moe Lord’s request to consummate their union.
Because Xiu made him feel that this person is completely insecure.
Each word from the Moe Lord poked the hole in the crazy fan’s brain so that his common sense leaked out and the cute, silly reader had no choice but to obediently lie down and be overwhelmed.
Du Ze got up from Xiu’s lap. Xiu woke up from his reverie and watched, his eyes a soft watery blue, as Du Ze groped around for his glasses and put on his headphones. Being looked at like that, some silly, cute person was somewhat uneasy. Trying to escape from the somewhat ambiguous atmosphere, the stiff-faced youth started to converse.
“What were you just looking at?”
“There’s a voice…” Xiu was unsure and asked: “I heard someone calling me, can you hear it?”
Du Ze shook his head but even if he didn’t have the advantage of knowing plot spoilers, some silly, cute reader could tell from his years of reading YY novels that this voice is from an artifact/god beast/goddess/mentor. The four dog blood (cliche) plots are: jumping down from a cliff but not dying, cheap teacher, helping the beauty, and an artifact calling to the hero. Those lonely artifacts/god beasts/goddesses/mentors were stuck in an isolated place for thousands of years, so when a protagonist appears, they act like they were injected with chicken blood (very energetic) and like to send a call: Come, hero, accept my love!
Just as the reader was elated by his ability to see through the author’s plot, he heard his family’s Moe Lord say: “It’s noisy.”
Du Ze imagined he could hear the artifact’s glass heart shatter.
“Do you know what that is?”
Du Ze shook his head helplessly. He hesitated for a moment then decided to frankly confess everything to Xiu.
“I don’t know many things now.”
——I know a lot, you can use me.
This was the reason why Xiu was willing to keep him around. Du Ze looked at Xiu and could see that Xiu’s expression is still soft. The blond, blue-eyed youth even seemed … happy? Du Ze had thought a lot about how Xiu would react but he had never guessed that he would be happy. A silly, cute person was very confused. Now that he knew that Du Ze had no more value, why was Xiu pleased?
Xiu seemed to see through Du Ze’s uneasiness and confusion. He stretched out his hand, his fingertips lingering on the skin of Du Ze’s neck.
“You just have to stay with me always. That’s enough.” Xiu’s lips curved up. “You said you wanted to see me become a God.”
