Starting as a Magical Girl, I Alone Shall Rule for Eternity Chapter 265: Lu Ya's Theory of Happiness
"It's already beyond saving..."
"Can we end this now?"
"How much longer are you going to keep this up?"
"Let's cremate him tomorrow..."
"Get back here!"
The setting sun fell on the edge of the window, the voices of her parents lingered in her ears, accompanied by the spinning fan, buzzing, buzzing, like flies, impossible to shake off.
The chaotic sirens, angry curses, scoldings, and wailing sobs.
For a long ti, they lingered around her, refusing to disperse.
Many things had already been forgotten, she only rembered she had to take Jiang Si away.
Her parents cut off her financial support, so she worked hard herself during this ti, saving up so money.
She thought it would be very tough, because everyone said it was tough, but actually doing it didn't seem as agonizing as she imagined.
She worked odd jobs during the day, and at night she would return to Jiang Si's side, read novels, recite those web novels to him, and then slowly fall asleep beside him.
Waking up in the morning and looking at his face, the fatigue of the day would completely vanish.
There was gain, there was anticipation, there was a future, doing what she wanted to do, living freely and contentedly.
If this wasn't called happiness, she didn't know what else in this world could be called happiness.
But, there were always people telling her this wasn't happiness, this had no future.
She clearly wasn't bothering anyone, wasn't relying on anyone.
She was just pursuing what she believed was happiness, why couldn't she?
Everyone told her this was wrong, but she insisted.
"Don't tell , you plan to live like this your whole life?"
"Wake up!"
Her father asked her this, "You want to take care of a dead person like this, with no hope, for a lifeti, can you really bear it?"
Wasn't that, super happy?
Why would spending a lifeti taking care of soone you love, being with soone you love for a lifeti, and him forever being able to rely only on you...
Be painful?
Just thinking about spending a lifeti like this made her feel imnse peace and satisfaction.
"You will et soone you like more soday, you will regret the youth you wasted soday, you will, soday, never be able to forgive yourself today..."
"But Dad."
She looked at her impassioned father and simply said, "That's not the of now."
"The of now is the most important, isn't it? When one day, I beco what you say, it ans the of now has died, and what lives is just another stranger. Why should I care about the thoughts of another stranger?"
"You're just too young, you'll et soone better..."
"Father, do you rember that doll from when I was little?"
She interrupted her dad.
"That old, tattered doll you threw in the trash, you always told , there will be better ones, you bought many, many more expensive and prettier dolls."
"But even now, my favorite is still that first ragged doll. Although it might indeed be cheap, and not so gorgeous and beautiful, but, liking sothing is just liking it."
Retrieved from the trash, washed clean, using needle and thread for the first ti, nding it herself, keeping it until today.
She was that kind of girl; once she liked sothing, no matter how much better others were, she didn't want to replace it.
It wasn't that the thing was special, that's why she liked it.
Rather, the thing she liked beca the most special in the world.
Dolls were like that, lovers were the sa.
Why must you think on my behalf? Why must you suffer on my behalf? Why must you regret on my behalf?
Am I not right here?
Am I not still alive?
Can't I still feel everything in this world?
Clearly, Jiang Si is the one who needs you to suffer for him, regret for him, think for him, right?
Clearly, he is the one, in the most pain, right? Never able to realize his dreams again, never able to feel those emotions again, forever lying on the bed.
If, what if he truly regretted saving ?
Who would think for him? Who would think for soone who can never get up again?
So, even if the whole world gave up, she would not give up.
Even if the whole world would never think for him again, Lu Ya would suffer for him, regret for him, think for him.
Taking her lover away from the hospital, evading others' pursuit, to better hide and transport him.
She personally dissected her lover's corpse.
She didn't find it ugly, didn't find it disgusting. She felt every organ on her lover's body; even if it was just a small piece,
her love wouldn't disperse; she could pour the sa love onto every part of her lover.
Sotis looking at those organs that had stopped functioning, she would fantasize about how they operated inside a person's body, sustaining his life.
She would marvel at the wonder of every part of the human body.
His body, she could always carefully and tirelessly touch, clean.
Piecing and suturing, to ensure future etings and reunions, she tried many tis, gradually growing fond of this process.
It felt as if her lover was gradually returning in her hands, making her sowhat obsessed.
But she wasn't ntally disturbed.
Doing these things was just for easier transportation. Practicing assembly was also because she was afraid one day she might forget how to bring her lover back.
One day, when she found a safe place and reassembled her lover, she would never separate him again.
Actually, she was a bit scared at first too, opening her eyes to see human internal organs in front of her.
Sotis she had nightmares, waking up in the middle of the night seeing these images, inevitably her heart would skip a beat.
But later, slowly making herself accept that these severed limbs and organs were part of her lover,
she would even put these jars on the bed, sleeping inside her lover.
It gave a feeling of being held, being loved.
Later, she accidentally scared away a forrly good friend because of this.
Constantly moving, searching everywhere for a place to live long and stably.
Thus, she lived a busy yet fulfilling life for a long ti.
She didn't know when, but she suddenly heard soone say there was a way to resurrect the dead.
Originally, she didn't have many thoughts about it. Because of her lover, she had also read many, many web novel stories, and she rembered a lot of the content. Resurrecting the dead wasn't a difficult thing in web novels.
But she never took it seriously. Although in the past, her lover would always seriously talk to her about the authenticity and reliability of web novels,
she never thought these things had anything to do with her.
She was just a little girl, staying by her husband's side. Whether it was dominating eternity or exhausting the Heavenly Dao, it was all beyond her reach.
However, that day, hearing the news about resurrecting the dead, she did have a tiny, improper thought.
Although she was already happy enough.
Although she was already satisfied enough.
But she still developed a desire for more.
Wanting to talk to her lover, wanting to let him know about the relationship and status between them now.
Once that little evil thought was born, it began to spread uncontrollably.
What a greedy and selfish girl I am.
She thought this, ultimately unable to resist pursuing the thod that could resurrect the dead.
In a daze, Lu Ya rubbed her temples.
Those mories, whether to call them unfamiliar or nostalgic, always made her sowhat uneasy and irritable.
Sotis they made her unable to distinguish whether she was in reality or in a fantasy.
Sotis they made her feel she wasn't herself.
Until she looked at Shion and the Little Black Dragon falling into the Disaster Beast's giant maw, finally revealing a relaxed smile.
That's right, just like this.
She had been striving until now, all to resurrect Jiang Si.
For, seeing him again, for talking to him again.
But, how could Jiang Si possibly have had contact with this kind of girl?
She felt a bit puzzled.
Because from Jiang Si's birth, she should have pretty much found out everything he experienced. Moreover, there was the mom who took care of Jiang Si from childhood; Mom almost told her everything about Jiang Si's childhood.
To the extent that Lu Ya even knew clearly how many tis Jiang Si wet the bed as a child.
Later, when Jiang Si went to school, the only girl he had contact with was herself.
Later still, after the car accident, lying in the hospital, it was always Lu Ya taking care of him. No other girls approached Jiang Si, and Jiang Si never woke up.
It was impossible for him to have any relationship with other girls...
In the quiet, uninhabited world bubble, the drifting Lu Ya ca back to her senses.
Then she squatted by the pit, cupping her face, looking at the monster in the deep pit completely devouring the two girls.
For a long ti, there was no reaction from the deep pit.
So, she sighed sowhat disappointedly.
"Failed again..."
Then she stood up and walked towards the previous school location.
She hadn't taken two steps before stopping again, turning her head, sowhat bewildered as she looked at that deep pit.
Although very small, that vibration, transmitted from the soles of her feet, was incredibly clear.
Imdiately after, the vibration grew larger and larger until the entire world was shaking!
Lu Ya could hardly stand steady, plopping down on the ground, staring blankly at the deep pit.
Like a volcano, purple magma erupted from ti to ti.
Scalding purple magma splashed onto the surrounding buildings, lting the surroundings like a strong corrosive substance, emitting wisps of green smoke.
Although the deep pit wasn't in the city center, there were residential areas around. Now, under this dazzling purple magma, the surrounding buildings quickly turned into ruins.
Broken utility poles, pulling on the nearby electrical tower, emitted a creaking, unpleasant sound as they tilted and collapsed. Incompletely crumbled ruins continuously underwent secondary collapses due to lting!
Raising her hand slightly to shield against the smoke and splashing dust and debris, it took Lu Ya a good while to see the purple magic continuously overflowing and flowing from the deep pit. The Disaster Beast originally hiding inside finally couldn't bear it and crawled out.
It let out a shrill roar!
However, its entire body was already battered and broken, as if it had suffered inhuman torture.
Blood hadn't even flowed out before being evaporated by the high temperature.
After the massive Disaster Beast crawled out a bit, its movents suddenly halted.
Its entire body continuously slid back towards the deep pit.
Then Lu Ya saw an unbelievable scene.
The Disaster Beast, which always dragged people into the deep pit to devour them,
was now frantically crawling outwards!
Countless claws and tentacles madly scratched outward, as if trying to grab onto sothing, to escape.
That terrifying, ferocious face now only held fear, as if there was so great terror beneath the deep pit. The screams it emitted were also incredibly miserable and pitiful. Tentacles and claws frenziedly scratched countless marks on the ground!
Then it roared and howled at her continuously, as if pleading for help.
Yet no matter how it struggled, the Disaster Beast was still pulled bit by bit into that pitch-black deep pit.
After one final wail that almost resounded through the world, the Disaster Beast was finally completely swallowed by the deep pit...
Wait, that was originally its nest, right? How could its nest turn around and swallow it?
Lu Ya stood up sowhat dazedly, staggering towards the deep pit, wanting to see what was really happening.
A head suddenly flew out from the deep pit.
Then it smashed in front of her, making Lu Ya almost lose her balance.
Looking closely, that head was precisely the Disaster Beast's head from just now. Its expression remained frozen in a twisted look of fear, already completely lifeless.
Imdiately after, the purple girl jumped up from the deep pit, still holding the unconscious Little Black Dragon in her hand, grabbing the little dragon's tail. The Little Black Dragon swung back and forth in her hand like a swing.
She just walked over like that.
Lu Ya instinctively took a step back.
After Shion stepped on and crushed the Disaster Beast head in front, she retrieved the jar hidden inside the head.
She looked at that face, remained silent for a mont, then murmured to herself, "So it was here."
Lu Ya asked with difficulty, "What exactly... are you..."
But the purple girl didn't pay her any heed.
She didn't even cast her gaze upon her.
It had been like this from the start, treating her as if she were air, never truly placing her in her eyes from beginning to end.
She casually picked up the jar on her.
The jar containing her lover's limbs.
When Lu Ya tried desperately to hug it, she found she couldn't hold onto it at all.
The other party easily took the jar from her hands.
Ignoring the fallen Lu Ya, Shion pondered for a mont, as if she had figured sothing out, "So it's this kind of setting?"
After her magic was continuously absorbed by the world bubble, the world bubble beca more real, as if borrowing her own rank, reshaping itself with her magic—magic itself could 【shape】.
And the world bubble itself possessed a projection of "Jiang Si," although it was already completely dead, only a corpse's 【shadow trace】.
But when he truly entered, he posed a fatal threat to this world bubble. The world bubble possessing the shadow trace could no longer bear the arrival of the shadow trace's original owner.
Finally, just before it was about to burst and shatter, it triggered the world's own rule—actively activating the Personal Reality, causing herself to regress into a Magical Girl transformation.
This was originally the new world's ability, guiding, or rather, forcibly inducing Magical Girl transformation.
The self-will of the world, do even world bubbles have such things? As a light trace and reflection, it's a bit too active.
The world bubble borrowed her own rank, then began to change starting from the deepest trace.
These limbs and Lu Ya were the deepest traces within this world bubble.
Also the true core constituting it.
Obtaining these severed limbs seed to grant complete control over this world bubble.
Thinking this, her gaze fell upon the girl who was desperately trying to snatch back the jar.
The little knife in her hand stabbed up again, this ti targeting the vital throat.
And this ti, the little knife snapped in response.
Lu Ya tilted her head slightly, her expression sowhat blank.
"This world bubble exists because of the severed limbs." Shion gently grabbed her neck. "And you."
The petite hand clamped onto her neck, yet it felt like a pair of pliers, tightly gripping her throat.
She could hardly breathe.
"The more you obtain, the higher the authority."
That's why just a little knife could pierce the defense of Shion's Magical Outfit, who didn't care about the attack.
But now, after Shion took away all the jars she carried, the girl once again beca an ordinary person with no power.
"Give... Jiang Si... back to ..."
As drool fell onto the back of Shion's hand, Lu Ya still stretched out her hand, trying to snatch back the jar taken by Shion.
Magic burned, lting all the severed limb jars.
The world bubble rules contained within were also re-coagulated by Shion, finally condensed onto a ring.
That was the wedding ring worn on the finger of the previous severed limb.
Lu Ya's pitch-black pupils almost seed to lt.
Tears began to stream continuously from the corners of her eyes, yet she still struggled, trying to retrieve the ring.
Originally intending to directly strangle her, Shion, after lting all the severed limbs, found the Magical Outfit naturally disappearing.
It should be that after the original severed limbs, one of the cores, disappeared, Jiang Si's own influence on the world bubble vanished.
The world bubble's forced transformation power disappeared, and the Magical Girl transformation was also lifted.
What a nice world bubble...
The originally struggling Lu Ya trying to resist suddenly quieted down.
"Jiang Si..."
The girl, still with tears, suddenly revealed a relieved, relaxed smile.
"What's this, isn't this... super successful, resurrection..."
Her fingers for so reason felt a bit weak, but Jiang Si didn't care, just slightly tightened his grip.
Just as he was about to snap the other's neck, suddenly a black shadow pounced.
But before it could get close, it was slapped onto the ground.
The Little Black Dragon struggled on the ground, her face full of pleading, "Let go, Boss, please!"
Jiang Si glanced at her sideways, his gaze slightly disappointed.
"I really wanted to see you, Jiang Si."
Lu Ya, having gotten a slight chance to breathe, said quietly, "Wanted to talk to you, chat. I've also read, many, many web novels..."
"She doesn't like discussing web novels."
The first response she received made Lu Ya's eyes curve like crescent moons, beautiful. "So you, know so well, always rembered , huh. Suddenly, I feel so at ease."
Over there, the Little Black Dragon still tried desperately to crawl over. Jiang Si just glanced and slapped her flying.
"Jiang Si!"
This ti, the tumbling Little Black Dragon directly called his na, hysterically!
Every ti it's like this.
Every ti, every ti!
She could only shout like this!
"Jiang Si!"
The girl in Jiang Si's hand showed no anger, no fear, no struggle.
She just looked at him quietly, her pupils beginning to lose focus slightly due to lack of oxygen, drool at the corner of her mouth also increasing, yet she still looked at him quietly and obsessively.
Until finally, the mont the Little Black Dragon pounced back, from sowhere ca strength, from sowhere ca a voice.
"Do you regret saving ?"
Jiang Si tilted his head; his tone wasn't much different from when they last parted.
"Fate is heaven-made, destined to fail."
The Immortal Venerable regrets, but I do not!
Saving without regret, killing without regret!
Lu Ya smiled nostalgically and contentedly, with a brilliant sweetness.
Holding the hand that was tightly gripping her neck, she gently and greedily stroked it, placing the wedding ring on the back of his hand. "I love you most..."
The hand tightened again, cutting off the words.
Without looking at the girl who had lost her temperature and softly collapsed, Jiang Si casually tossed her aside.
The Little Black Dragon nearby let out a piercing cry, lying beside Lu Ya's corpse, wailing mournfully at the sky.
But soon the corpse gradually disappeared, dissipated.
As if it had never existed.
Only a point of light, wavering, flew into the ring.
The world bubble shook, gradually turning transparent. Jiang Si looked up expressionlessly; above was Xiao Qi sitting upright in the void,
swinging her tail.
This was inside the Disaster Beast that had swallowed the world bubble. Everywhere were colorful, illusory world bubbles, like a universe woven from countless worlds.
Only an Incubator could achieve precise deploynt of world bubbles here.
Xiao Qi slowly walked down.
"Mr. Jiang Si, Miss Shion, your lover is truly remarkable. Without the Witch Association's technology, without miracles or magic, imrsed in that negative emotion and Polluted Magic that could drown the world, yet she could still retain her mory... Although it's just a projection of a world bubble, it shows she has such qualifications, such potential..."
Jiang Si pulled out his Pistol, aiming at Xiao Qi, just asking, "Can you tell the difference?"
But the Incubator just tilted her head, not caring, several world bubbles circling around her again. "World bubbles are projections, possibilities, also mories. If used properly, we can also make world bubbles beco real."
"A bit of your magic can make world bubbles more real," the Incubator revealed a smile. "But to turn into reality, it still requires the rules and power of Full Bloom. So—"
"For your real lover, and the true disaster-human realm."
Xiao Qi said sincerely and cheerfully, "Please Full Bloom with us!"
"Wrong, deluded child."
Jiang Si shook his head. The world bubble contracted until it beca the size of a ball, held in his hand.
He casually pulled the trigger. Xiao Qi's head exploded with a bang!
"You simply can't tell the difference."
