After Crossing Through Ten Worlds, I Failed To Run Away

Ark learned from the surrounding residents' comments that the second generation of angels decided to visit the capital of Titan Star temporarily. He was at the seaside at the time, so he didn't know the news in advance, so he happened to meet them.

Perhaps it should not be called the capital city now—after all, as one of the territories of the Noah star country, the capital of the Titan star has become the capital of Noah, but the natives of the planet are still accustomed to using this city as their capital. I can't quite accept the fact that my country has changed dynasties.

Amid the majestic and majestic military music, the ostentatious and gorgeous floats slowly drove across the street. The blond second-generation angels smiled and waved in all directions. The curvature of their lips has not changed at all from the beginning to the end. measure.

Although they made smiling expressions, Alke, who is also an angel, knew that they had no emotions of their own, and they would only smile if they were required to smile on this occasion.

The same is true for the residents standing in the buildings on both sides of the street. Many of them hate the "Ark Angel", but they still have to face the intruders with a smile.

Seeing all this, Alke felt a little sad suddenly. He didn't like to see those hypocritical performances, nor did he like hatred and fear, but he was one of the murderers who caused this scene. He has unshirkable responsibilities and sins.

The second generation of angels passed by Alk, and the float finally went to the distance, but the long line was not over yet, and then several huge transport vehicles drove over, carrying large water tanks several meters high, each There is a mermaid in the water tank.

These mermaids were beautiful, but looked haggard. Most of them curled up quietly at the bottom of the tank, completely motionless, and completely lost their vitality.

"who are they?"

A childish voice suddenly resounded in the room. Alke turned his head and saw that the little mermaid had already got out of the box. With two small hands struggling to grab the window sill and flicking his tail, he saw the mermaid in the water tank. All of a sudden, my eyes widened.

"Don't come out."

Alke's heart tightened, and he immediately hugged the little mermaid back into the box so that no one would see his tail. The little mermaid splashed water in the box, and said a little excitedly: "They look a lot like me. Tails, are they my family?"

"...I don't think so."

After a moment of silence, Alke shook his head. Almost all the people related to the royal family have been killed. The little mermaid should have no relatives still alive in the world.

But he still accidentally let the little mermaid see his clansmen, which made him worry whether the little mermaid would want to go to his clansmen. If the little mermaid really wanted to leave, he might not have the heart to stop him, but What he is most afraid of is that the little mermaid will be caught and used as a plaything like those mermaids in the water tank in the future, and he will never be able to escape the tragic fate in his whole life.

"I want to see them again."

The little mermaid blinked her chubby eyes and acted like a baby at Alke. Seeing that he didn't seem to realize that those mermaids were imprisoned, Alke nodded when he encountered the excitement of the same kind, and covered the little mermaid from head to toe with a big bath towel. Wrapped his feet, only two eyes were exposed, and hugged him to the window.

The transport vehicle carrying the mermaid water tank was about to go away, the little mermaid watched without blinking, a little eager to say hello to those mermaids, but she held back.

"Oh!"

However, at this moment, the mermaid in the last water tank suddenly went berserk, and crazily hit the water tank with his head, and soon his head was bleeding, the blood stained the water inside, and at the same time, he let out an ear-piercing scream , Scratching his face dripping with blood with his long nails.

His anomaly also caused commotion among the other mermaids, and soon all the mermaids began to hit the water tank with their tails. Seeing that the situation was not good, the soldiers in charge immediately pulled down the black cloth on the top of the tank to cover the water tank, but everyone Can still hear the banging inside.

"do not look!"

As early as when the adult fish hit the tank with its head, Ark immediately covered the eyes of the little mermaid, preventing him from seeing the bloody scene below.

But the subsequent screams still frightened the little mermaid. He was trembling all over. Alcra closed the curtains, held him in his arms, covered his ears, and kept comforting him until the parade left , the little mermaid was still trembling, and tears fell from her eyes.

"He's saying he wants to get out..."

The little mermaid tightly grabbed Alke's skirt, and said to him full of pleading: "He didn't stay in there voluntarily, he was locked up, let's save him, okay, oh, Brother Alke..."

The young mermaid was crying, and Alk patted him on the back with a distressed expression, but he couldn't make any promises to the little mermaid.

If he is found by Noah again, he will be hunted down again by the second generation of angels. At that time, not only himself, but the little mermaid and Foggy will also be involved in danger. put others at risk.

The little mermaid fell asleep crying, Alk put him in the box, took him quietly out of the hotel, and returned to the temporary base.

However, at night, the little mermaid suddenly had a fever, probably because of being frightened. He was trembling with his tail in his arms, and his whole body was very hot. Alke was so anxious that he fed medicine to the little mermaid and found ice water to wipe it over and over again. Looking at his body, watching the little mermaid sleepless all night.

It wasn't until the high temperature slowly subsided that Alke finally breathed a sigh of relief, drank some water, and ate something. This night, in order to take care of the little mermaid, he didn't even drink water, and stayed with the little mermaid all the time.

"Brother Alke..."

The little mermaid with a flushed face was placed in the incubator, her eyes opened a slit, her nose twitched, she looked at Alke outside the box with aggrieved and sad eyes, and her tears melted into the water.

Despite his weakness, he still patted the box wall, wanting Alke to hug him, Alke fished him out of the water, hugged him wetly in his arms, and kept stroking his hair, comforting him in a low voice. Him: "I'm right here."

The little mermaid stretched out her hand and hugged his wrist tightly, refusing to let go no matter what she said, crying convulsively, whispering: "I just had a terrible nightmare..."

"Don't be afraid, the things in the dream are not real." Alke wiped away the tears from the corners of the little mermaid's eyes, coaxing him gently, "With me by your side, nothing will happen."

"But in the dream you were not by my side..." The little mermaid said with a sob, "I have grown up in the dream. Although we were still together at that time, you seemed to be very busy and would always leave me. I can only Stay by yourself."

"The pool is very big, I can move freely, but I can't leave this pool, there are many terrible people looking at me, they won't let me go, and then they poured something very bitter to me, after I drank it I just kept vomiting blood, and you didn't show up until I was about to die."

"In my dream, I still called you 'Ark Angel' instead of calling you brother, that you look a little strange, not the same as now..."

Alke was stunned for a moment.

He could already hear that the nightmare described by the little mermaid was the scene of Ji Ning's death. Ji Ning was discovered by Noah's Star Country as a spy, and was sentenced to death because of being poisoned. When he arrived, it was too late. He could only watch helplessly as the mermaid died in his arms.

Why did the little mermaid dream about that scene?

He obviously shouldn't know anything.

The white-haired angel had a turbulent wave in his heart, and his pupils shrank slightly, but the little mermaid in his arms was still very weak. He had consumed a lot of energy after talking so much, and he had already curled up into a ball and fell asleep, holding Alke's hand while sleeping. , whispering uneasily in the dream.

"Don't leave me..."

"..."

Alke hugged the mermaid's small body, lowered his eyes, a faint red appeared at the end of his eyes, showing an expression of about to cry.

He didn't dare to think any more.

But he had to figure out what was going on.

……

After the mission of the red-haired man was over, he returned to Titan to visit Alk and the little mermaid. Alk trusted him and told him what he had encountered.

"So you're saying that the kid dreamed about what Ji Ning had encountered before?"

The man opened his mouth, showing an incredulous expression: "How is that possible? He's not Ji Ning, how could he know what happened before?" He immediately asked again, "Did you ask for more detailed information later on?" ?”

"...He doesn't remember." Ark's eyes showed complicated emotions, he shook his head slowly, and said in a low voice, "After his fever subsides, he no longer remembers seeing those mermaids, nor does he remember the nightmares he had. No impression."

"Is that so..."

The red-haired man stroked his chin, showing a thoughtful look: "Could it be related to the stimulation he saw his fellow tribe get? But no matter what the trigger is, the strangest thing is, why did he dream of Ji Ji?" What about Ning? Before he was born, Ji Ning was already gone, and there is no possibility of memory sharing."

He paused, then continued: "Also, I've been wondering for a long time. Although the mermaid's growth rate is very fast, its speed is much faster than that of ordinary mermaids. Maybe it's because we don't know enough about companion eggs. , there may be some secrets hidden in it..."

"Why don't you do this!" He tapped his palms and made a quick decision, "I want to sneak into the mermaid and figure out what's going on with the companion eggs. It just so happens that I've learned the mermaid language recently, so as long as I cooperate with it, I can become a mermaid." The secret medicine, I can get close to them."

"Fergie..." Alke was a little at a loss, shaking his head and said, "I can't trouble you anymore, you have done a lot for me..."

"It's not for you." The red-haired man chuckled, "Of course I want to find treasures more, otherwise I wouldn't have dedicated myself to learning the mermaid language. Finding out about companion eggs is just a matter of effort."

But in any case, Ark is very grateful to Fergie. Since he was rescued by Fergie, he has indeed received a lot of care from Fergie, but he has given him very little in return.

"It's good that you know." The red-haired man snorted and said, "When the kid grows up, you must come out and do missions with me and earn me a lot of money!"

As an experienced mercenary, his ability is unquestionable. With his proficient mermaid language and mermaid secret medicine, he quickly broke into the mermaid tribe, gained their trust, and asked them about About the companion eggs.

"The next thing, you listen to me carefully, Ark."

After a period of time, the red-haired man returned to the land, and immediately returned to the base without stopping. His usual joking expression became a lot more serious, and he said seriously.

"Companion eggs are so rare that even most mermaids don't know about them. This is a secret I found out from an elder of the mermaid clan. Although it sounds unbelievable, I think it should be true. "

As he spoke, he glanced at the little mermaid sleeping in the water tank. The little mermaid grew up very fast, and now he looked like an eight or nine-year-old child.

"Whether it's a dream about the past, or his growth speed is different from the normal mermaid, it's the most powerful proof."

He unconsciously lowered his voice and spoke slowly.

"The mermaid elder told me that the companion eggs live in symbiosis with the mermaid's soul..."

"Even if it dies, as long as the fire of the soul is not extinguished, one day it will be reborn because of love and longing."

"I think I have to take back what I said at the beginning. He is Ji Ning, he is Ji Ning's reincarnation."

"It's you, Ark, it's you who brought him back to this world."

……

That night, Alke sat motionless by the water tank, quietly watching the little mermaid sleeping in the water, without sleep all night.

His eyes slowly traced the mermaid's eyebrows and eyes, everything seemed to be just a dream, so unbelievably beautiful that he couldn't believe it, his heart was beating, and there was a lot of pain.

He felt heartache again.

But this heartache was different from before, it was the fear and pain caused by extreme joy.

Tears fell silently from the silver pupils.

The white-haired angel finally stood up, put his palm on the water tank lightly, and kissed him lightly through the transparent tank wall.

This time, let him teach his mermaid what "love" is.

……

Before he knew it, a whole year had passed since the little mermaid was born.

After that nightmare, the little mermaid dreamed more about the previous life intermittently. Alk felt conflicted. He hoped that his mermaid could recall their past emotions, but he didn’t want him to completely To restore his memory, because his country, Titan, was destroyed after all, and he could not save it.

On the day of his birthday, the red-haired man spent a lot of effort to buy a very scarce birthday cake. Although he groaned in pain when he served the cake, seeing the happy smile on the mermaid's face, he grabbed He scratched his hair, laughed too, took out another birthday candle, and stuck it on the cake.

"Happy Birthday……"

As he said that, there was a weird look on his face, because the mermaid sitting in the short water tank was already mature, with beautiful and charming eyes, exuding a seductive aura, it seemed that he was only one year old .

However, the way mermaids calculate their age is different from that of humans. They have a long lifespan, but their juveniles grow very quickly. One year old is an adult, and a teenager grows faster than ordinary mermaids. Converted to human age, at least there are 20 years old.

"Thank you, Fergie."

The mermaid in the water tank frowned and closed his eyes to make a wish. Before blowing out the candles, he smiled and said to the other two, "Why don't you guys come and make a wish too?"

"Oh that's fine."

The red-haired man agreed happily, and made a wish with his eyes closed, and Alk did the same, silently speaking in his heart.

As an "Ark Angel", he had never heard of such a custom, but after integrating into the lives of ordinary people, he gradually understood a lot and was willing to learn, because it would make him feel more like a people.

"What is the wish of the two of you?"

After the wish was over, the red-haired man opened a bottle of wine and asked, "Of course my wish is to make money, a lot of money, money that I can never spend in my life!"

"I wish I could be with Alke forever." The mermaid said with a smile.

"What about me?" The man yelled dissatisfied, "Don't you include me in your wish?"

"I don't care, but didn't you once say that you still want to marry a wife and have children?" The mermaid laughed, "You will be with us forever, how can you get married?"

"Uh..." The red-haired man was taken aback, and muttered, "We're just together as friends..."

The mermaid smiled, but suddenly frowned slightly, supported her forehead, showing an expression of discomfort.

"what happened to you?"

Seeing this, Alke immediately stepped forward and held the mermaid's arm, only to find that his slightly cool skin was emitting bursts of heat at the moment, and the mermaid's beautiful face was also flushed brightly, and the corners of the eyes were stained with tears. Opening her lips slightly, she panted lightly.

"I have no idea……"

He looked at Alke, tears kept falling from the corners of his eyes, and held onto Alke's clothes: "But I'm so uncomfortable, Alke, I'm so uncomfortable..."

"Ah, bad..."

Seeing the mermaid couldn't stop sticking to Alke's body, and rubbing his cheek against Alke's palm, the red-haired man was startled, his eyes widened suddenly, and he murmured.

"Could it be that he has entered the reproductive period?"
