Reborn as a short-lived loli who can only live for three years

kill her.

Kill her, kill her.

kill her.

Ivy swallowed back the sob that had not yet come out.

She couldn't have any thoughts or hesitations. Once she stopped, she would never be able to lift the knife again.

"Okay, sister..." Ivy replied in a low voice.

The next second, she exerted force on her feet, and her figure instantly disappeared from the spot, and then instantly appeared behind Wan Yexi.

The dagger in his hand reflected the dazzling firelight, and he cut towards Wan Yexi's throat without hesitation.

The splattered blood melted into the flames, making the fire bigger.

The only sound I could hear was the crackling sound of burning.

Wan Ye Xi fell into the flames, and she would soon be burned to ashes.

In this case…there is only one person left that Xi Xiu can possess.

Ivy tightly gripped the blood-stained knife, not daring to move her eyes as she stared at the dark sky.

My heart suddenly ached, as if I had lost something important.

Ah, right.

It must be that stolen soul that was burned in the fire.

There was no time for her to grieve, nor time to say goodbye. Ivy only paused for a moment before she started running back with her heavy legs as fast as she could.

Ran to Ye Jiyan.

……

A special defense enveloped the two of them, a technique used to temporarily isolate the soul.

"Yours." Ye Jiyan threw her a storage ring.

These were indeed Ivy's things. She had put some sundries and magic tools in them. She was taken away suddenly that day and didn't have them with her.

At this moment, one of the magical weapons inside can be used in an important way.

"What is this?" Ivy found something inside that didn't belong to her.

It looks like a life lock, but not exactly.

It's more like something made by a copycat.

"An improved lock, which contains my memories."

The lock was very light, almost weightless in the hand, but after Evie heard what he said, it suddenly felt heavier.

Ye Jiyan covered her hand and asked her to hold it tightly.

"Carry it with you, maybe it will be useful?"

The wound on Ye Jiyan's arm was completely blackened by the black mist. At this moment, it was like an open passage that could not be eliminated or closed.

The soul of the first generation was pulled out of the fire, transformed into a surging black mist, and rushed towards them.

The soul-isolating defensive spell took effect, like a transparent wall that kept the black fog out.

“Does it really work?” Ivy lowered her head and asked in a muffled voice.

The memory lock was a baseless thing that could not change any outcome. To Ivy, it was already useless.

"Then let it be a talisman." Ye Jiyan rubbed her head casually.

Cracks appeared in the defense. As the black fog hit, the cracks became more and more numerous, and it seemed that it would soon collapse.

"Can I kill one more person?" he asked.

Ivy hummed softly and took out the blood-stained dagger again.

Her action was decisive, and Ye Jiyan couldn't help but laugh: "Is this the effect of the 'magic of forgetting memories'?"

Ivy didn't say anything. She kept her head down, listening to the last words.

"But it seems that's all." Ye Jiyan raised her face, somewhat helplessly, "If there is a next time, please have more memories of the sacrifice. You look so ugly when you cry."

Evie slapped his hand away.

The defense made a sound of being overwhelmed, and the countdown quietly began.

"Forget it, I'll do it myself." Ye Jiyan took the dagger from her hand and pointed it at his heart. Then, he urged softly, "You can say your lines now."

Evie took a deep breath.

"...Let's play a game."

"If I win, give me your soul."

"If I lose, give me your soul."

Four intersecting lights appeared under the feet of the two people.

"I agree." Ye Jiyan smiled at last and stabbed the dagger into his heart.

next moment.

The defense was broken, and surging black fog rushed in, following the wound and drilling into the new body.

next moment.

The illusion breaks down, and the dream of the chess game emerges.

The chessboard is betted, with the bet as the guide and the soul as the pledge, and it is established immediately.

The black and white chess pieces are placed at both ends of the chessboard.

The ominous soul filled the dead body, Ye Jiyan's skin quickly turned pale, and dark magic surrounded him.

Xi Xiu opened his eyes in his new body. Even he had not expected that he would find himself in such a scene.

"Okay, you guys really tricked me." Xi Xiu finally realized that something was wrong and a drop of cold sweat broke out on his face.

[Eighth-level] magic weapon, gambling chessboard. If it were before, his strength would be far beyond [Eighth-level] and he would not be restrained by this thing, but now, he can only exert the strength of [Sixth-level] at most.

Where exactly did it start to go wrong?

Perhaps I should have killed Ye Jiyan from the first moment I saw him.

"To save time, are you going to just give up?" Ivy asked.

Regardless of winning or losing, the result will be the same. There is no point in playing this game of chess anymore.

But Xi Xiu seemed to want to live a little longer.

"Why give up? If this is a curtain call, I will enjoy it to the end."

Xi Xiu sat calmly on one side of the chessboard. His temperament overlapped with Ye Jiyan's, and he seemed to always have a backup plan.

But Ivy knew that he didn't have it anymore.

The All-Seeing Eye opened, and it seemed ready to proceed with this strange and absurd chess game according to the procedure. Next, it was the deprivation phase, but Ivy said, "Let's get started."

For a curtain call, a simple and unpretentious chess game is the most appropriate.

Xi Xiu didn't say anything, he acquiesced to this.

Then the All-Seeing Eye closed again.

In the silent chessboard world, it seemed that there were only the two of them.

Before the game began, Ivy had one last thing to do. This time, she did not avoid Xi Xiu. As if she was performing a magical trick, she concentrated her magic power on her fingertips and injected it into her brow.

"Oh?" Xi Xiu raised his eyes with interest.

When she opened her eyes again, the core had been replaced by another person.

The previous doubts were solved. Looking at the girl across the chessboard, Xi Xiu finally figured it out: "So this is the secret of how you escaped brainwashing... It's really a good trump card."

In the first round, Ivy looked at the familiar chessboard, then at her opponent, and she remained silent with caution.

what's going on?

"Let me introduce myself. I'm Kutar Xixiu. Please forgive me for not being able to tell you my real name because it was so long ago that even I have forgotten it." Xixiu introduced the situation to her considerately.

"This is the final battle. After the game is over, you can go to the world of the third round."

Week 3...

In the first week, Ivy's expression turned cold.

"That is to say, my revenge will be complete after I defeat you."

Xi Xiu smiled. He felt the hatred coming towards him. "Don't worry. For you, this is a game you are sure to win. Enjoy it."

"I will enjoy your appearance as a loser."
