I, holding a long sword in my hand, only know one move

——My relative is dead...

Dead... dead, dead, dead, all dead.

died--

When those pairs of inorganic eyes looked down at him, they seemed to be asking:

"Hey, how are humans feeling right now?"

The thick fog in Rick's eyes suddenly shattered, and the overflowing hatred in it could no longer be blocked by any barrier. They turned into sharp knives and stabbed Hubi directly. His voice was hoarse in the hysterical roar, giving people a creepy feeling. Feeling of cold——

It even made Rick laugh out loud in anger, which was even more terrifying.

"Hahaha...hahahaha! Human heart? OK, I'll tell you..."

"You all go to hell!!!"

The joints of the fingers exploded, and the trembling muscles all over the body screamed. If this continues, the fingers will really break.

A voice somewhere in my head asked - so what if I do such a thing?

But both reason and emotion responded in unison: Shut up, I don’t care!

"Haha, hahahaha, hahahahahahaha!!"

How can you not laugh at this? This was the first time that Rick had seen the opinions of reason and emotion so consistent, turning into waves of echoes that unified in his mind.

Then you are welcome, even if his fingers will be broken, Rick still yelled at Hubie: "Do you know how many people died because of your relationship?! How many people were killed?! How many people--"

How many people have you forced me to kill...

"....sorry....."

Amidst Rick's rants, Hubie whispered an apology.

Can an apology be enough? !

When Rick was about to yell like this, Hubie stroked Rick's cheek.

"....Huby made Rick cry....so

It is speculated that Hubby said something too outrageous..."

Seeing the hand that Hubie touched his cheek covered with tears, the person who was most surprised was Rick.

"...has mastered...Rick's 'heart'...want to kill Hubie..."

Then when he heard Hubie's words, Rick's mind went blank this time.

"....Hubby, disconnected...."

The implication is that there is no need to worry about other Ex-Machina knowing.

Hey--

I saw Hubi calmly opening the diamond-shaped armor on his chest and pointing at the parts that were wrapped in complex machinery and emitted a faint light.

"...Just use that fork to pierce it here...Hubby...will die."

But maybe because he felt inconsistent with his words, Hubie showed a surprised expression and corrected his words.

"...Death...Hubi is not a living thing...Permanently stopped - beyond repair...Total destruction?"

She continued in a very frank tone and very naturally: "Hubby... I want to see Rick's 'heart'... so... okay..."

She made a request to Rick, the boy with black eyes who reflected her figure.

"Follow your heart...kill Hubie, okay?"

Chapter 20 Ke Long, who was conquered and conquered by himself

.....ha.

That's a lie, Rick.

The sharp fork in his hand hung in front of the core of Hubi's chest, trembling slightly.

At this time you are still shirking responsibility - how far have you fallen to, you scumbag!

I see, if we want to talk about the most fundamental reason, it is the [war] fought by these guys.

So the forty-seven people who died - whatever the excuse.

The one who told them to die... is you!

boom!

Rick let go of his hand, and Hubie immediately sat down on the ground. Her wide-open eyes stared straight at him. Rick couldn't stand that look, so he turned around and buried himself in the straw mat and quilt.

"I'm going to sleep." Rick said with his back to Hubie.

Feeling really incredible, Hubie asked in a low voice: "Why... don't you kill Hubie?"

"Who knows, I don't know either, damn it! Please shut up."

Why not kill her? If you look for it, there are many reasons.

For example: Don’t think I’m the same as you.

Or: Even if you do that, the dead will not come back to life.

Again: What problem can it solve?

If you need that kind of diversionary argument or beautiful rhetoric to cover up, you can do as much as you want.

But Rick felt disgusted with himself like that.

Because he did not talk about them, that is, the full force of the dead.

After all, Rick, you are a piece of trash who can tell people to die, but dare not kill anyone with your own hands.

"....sorry...."

Why did she apologize, but it seems that she misunderstood Rick's intentions again.

Hearing such a regretful apology, Rick once again felt a sense of self-loathing as if his guts were falling.

I can't help it...I don't understand anything anymore...Too many things have happened...

"Don't leave my sight."

"Um... Hubie knows...Rick?"

The moment he closed his eyes, although he seemed to hear Hubie's confused voice, fatigue and sleepiness involuntarily took away his consciousness, causing him to fall into darkness.

...

In the kitchen, Cheng Rang, who unknowingly chatted with Ke Long, even helped out. For this lovely girl who always showed a cheerful smile and an optimistic attitude and was kind to others, what else could she do? What a more enjoyable way to spend time than chatting with her.

"It's done, let's taste it."

Cheng Rang, who is more proficient in cooking techniques than the people here, uses limited ingredients and more high-end seasonings to make delicious food that can make people move their fingers.

Regarding the various spices taken out of the system backpack, Cheng Rang could only explain that they were brought from his original settlement.

However, the food placed in front of Ke Long obviously made her forget such a flawed statement.

"Wow~~! What is this? Is this really delicious made with the ingredients we have here?!"

Ke Long seemed unable to stop after taking a small bite with the spoon. His narrowed eyes shone like stars, and he picked up the plate with red cheeks and ate all the food inside.

"nice! You love it."

"More than just liking it? It's simply a delicacy that only exists in heaven! Ah~~ After eating such delicious food, I feel like I would be willing to die tomorrow..."

Cheng Rang said with a smile: "You can't say that. Kelong has to live well. If you want to eat, I can make it for you in the future. Well, I don't bring a lot of these seasonings."

Some of these condiments are from the Little Garden Market, which I picked while wandering around, and some are from some delicious small shops in Hersharemzlot. After Cheng Rang's inquiry, the shop owner revealed some strange things to him. seasoning.

All in all, it is probably a delicious thing that cannot be tasted in the world.

Don’t forget, Cheng Rang also has his own high school student in H.L.

For high-end restaurants, researching new dishes is a must.

Even if you can only stay for a week each time you go back, you still have to earn money. You can't be ruined by Elaine every time you go back, leaving you with no money to be happy, right?

"Yes...these seasonings are very precious...ah! I'm sorry!!"

Ke Long looked at the plate in front of him that he had licked clean, and then he remembered that he had already eaten lunch and had just put the food that Cheng Rang had cooked for him into his stomach unceremoniously.

The girl's cheeks were stained with blush, and she quickly bowed and apologized to Cheng Rang.

"It's so inappropriate. I...ahhhh~~I'm really sorry...!"

"It doesn't matter, I can do it again. Seeing you enjoying the meal makes me happy too." Cheng Rang waved his hand to indicate that it was nothing.

"Cooking is something that brings happiness to people. In such an environment, Kelon, you can still bring such vitality and smiles to everyone. Compared with these, what is just a meal? "

The black-haired man who said this rubbed his head and praised:

"It's amazing, Kelon."

The happiness brought by the food still vaguely lingered in the body, feeling warm, and the touch on the top of her head made Ke Long not resist. She was very happy to receive such a compliment.

Kelon showed an expression like a kitten, hummed, raised his head and looked into his eyes with the same color as Rick.

In those bright black eyes, there was a composure and maturity that seemed to transcend his apparent age, but they also revealed an innocence that only belonged to a child.

They were obviously completely contradictory and contradictory things, but Ke Long found them at the same time in Cheng Rang's eyes.

I feel like he is a very powerful and reliable person...

Ke Long knew the dangers of the "expedition" very well.

He accepted his commission and fulfilled his promise to bring Rick back intact.

The feeling of being on tenterhooks all the time seems to calm down around him...

The girl Rick brought back...even though it was...but that was his own choice.

So if this is the case, can I rest assured——

"Kelong, Kelon?"

The call in her ear suddenly brought Ke Long's consciousness back to reality. Only then did she realize that she had actually pressed herself into Cheng Rang's arms. The intoxicating warmth and sense of security made her involuntarily do something. Proper behavior.

"Ahhhhhh!!"

Pushing himself away from Cheng Rang's chest like a projectile, Ke Long felt that his head was as hot as being roasted.

"Yes, yes, yes, no...and!"

I bit my tongue while bowing.

"It doesn't matter."

The feeling of a teenage girl falling in love seems to dull Ke Long's smart and alert mind. Cheng Rang's still careless and gentle tone seems to be able to melt his heart.

As Ke Long himself said, the first important thing for human beings to survive here is to have children, followed by food, and the third, fourth, and fifth priority is to have children...

And apart from boring work, the basic entertainment activities are...ahem, married life.

It is no longer common for men and women to get married and have children after they fall in love with each other. Although Kelong, who has been single for five years, is also looking forward to a passionate love, the status of his younger brother Rick is different from that of the village. All kinds of things need to be dealt with by herself, which takes up all of Kelong's attention, leaving her with no time or mind to think about these things.

"I killed that monster."

But when I heard Cheng Rang say this outside the door that day, everything changed.

Kelon was as shocked as Rick at the time.

——Yi Wang did not deny it, and he did come back alive, so it makes no sense for Cheng Rang to lie. This is a fact that has witnesses and people who have experienced it.

That's why Ke Long asked Cheng Rang to take care of him during Rick's expedition so that he wouldn't die.

.....

The settlement has the most powerful spear, and Rick is the strongest shield that hides everyone.

So in this case, in this unreasonable world, is it possible to carve out even an extremely small amount of safe soil for everyone to live in?

No more running away all the time….
