"Why... Why did sothing else other than further expansion and protection security co to mind when thinking of ’goals’...?" Necro clutched his forehead, his pupils flickering out of focus. "Wh-What is...!?"
His consciousness suddenly blurred. It was only for but an instant, but in that instant, Necro saw sothing.
A... Mountain...
And a...
"Yimin wuvs Master thiiiis much—!"
Dragon girl...?
"Ugh!"
A splitting headache unlike anything he’d ever felt before assaulted Necro from all sides. He keeled over, coughing up blood. His complexion paled considerably, with his autonomous system slowly shutting down.
Death would definitely feel a million tis better than what he was experiencing right now.
*Thud!*
Necro’s knees smacked into the ground. He could no longer maintain his balance, and if it continued like this, he’d soon beco ntally paralyzed.
To avoid his brain being fried, Necro transford his right arm into a sharp wooden blade. Without hesitation, he slashed at his legs, cutting them off clean at the base.
The pain slightly eased his fatal symptoms.
But... it wasn’t enough...
SHA!
Necro slashed at his other arm.
When his legs regenerated, he cut them off as well.
SHA! SHA! SHA!
Necro wound up disconnecting his right arm from the rest of his body. And without holding anything back, he rcilessly attacked his own body. He cut and slashed in an endless cycle of regeneration and desecration.
Necro only stopped when his physical body had been reduced to a deford and unrecognizable block of at. Golden blood poured out of all his orifices, staining and lightly corroding the floor.
"...It’s done..." he struggled to say while waiting for his body to finish recovering. "That stinging ntal pain from earlier has vanished."
Necro was utterly clueless as to what was going on with him as of late, or why he was viewing unfamiliar images that made his heart ache.
"...There’s sothing wrong with ..."
That much he was certain.
He considered bringing forward the uncovering of his faulty wires when faint footsteps sounded.
Soone was coming up the Mansion’s stairs. This soone was attempting to be sneaky.
Necro’s eyes flashed coldly as he rose from his ditative position. He didn’t want to spread out his Nature Sense, lest whoever it was outside caught onto his probing and fled.
Yet, just as dangerous thoughts surfaced, a familiar feminine voice rang out. "Yo, Necro, you big jerk, are you up??"
*Bang!*
Su Yu rushed into Necro’s room.
But for so reason, she blushed profusely as soon as she saw him.
Necro looked where she was looking. He made an "Oh" sound after realizing that he was nude from the feet up.
"Must’ve been because of the creation of the Divine Lotus Tempering Sutra..."
"D-Don’t just start muttering to yourself! Go put on so stinking clothes, you bloody pervert...!!"
Su Yu left the room just as quickly as she arrived, but did so in a far more flustered manner.
"Hurm?" Necro was lost. "Nudity among humans should be normal. Isn’t that one of the prerequisites for reproduction?"
So then why was the human girl so obviously embarrassed??
"Humans... are so complicated..."
Sighing, Necro searched the room for so human clothes. He quickly located a loose white dress shirt and a pair of pants tailored to the young male demographic.
"These’ll work," he said as he slipped them on in the most efficient and elegant way. "Better to fit in with the other humans by wearing sothing more in style."
Those of River Mountain City were not like the humans Necro t previously. Those of this tropolitan city wore more western steampunk-type clothes instead of the robes that were prevalent in the Immortal Cultivation Sects.
Everyone dressed very classily.
"This is adequate," Necro stated while looking at his refined childlike appearance in a body-sized mirror. "Very human-like design."
"A-Are you ready yet, dummy??" Su Yu asked with a blush from the other side of the door. "There’s sothing I... need your help with..."
"You need my help?" Necro suddenly opened his door, startling the jittery young girl bashfully waiting outside. "What do you need?"
"St-Stop doing that, baka...!" Su Yu complained adorably. "I... I nearly peed myself..."
"Is your bladder that weak—"
"Just shut up, you dirty pervert!" Su Yu snapped. "Stop asking such e-embarrassing things!"
Necro nodded in understanding.
"...Why do I feel like you’re going to keep on doing it...?"
"Must be your imagination. Humans often have very wild imaginations."
Su Yu pouted before dragging Necro through the 2nd Floor corridors. "There you go again with that ’human this’ and ’human that’ stuff. You’re such a weirdo, Necro!"
"Thank yo—"
"It’s not a complint!"
Su Yu harrumphed, and by the ti she opened her vexed eyes once more, they were already outside the Mansion.
"So what is it that you need my help with?"
Necro’s voice snapped her out of it. She responded, "I... You’re strong, right? Well I require your services!"
She saved herself with a haughty laugh.
"You paying?"
"Y-You..." Su Yu teared up. "Didn’t you say that we were friends...?"
"Yeah, I was just kidding."
The waterworks started up for Su Yu. But before they reached an overflow point, Necro finished his words, saying, "I was kidding about the paynt."
Su Yu’s tears stopped flowing on the flip of a di. She stared at Necro like an angry hamster about to explode.
"When did you learn how to make jokes, you dummy!?" she retorted. "Aren’t you supposed to be the emotionless, ultra oblivious brickhead!?"
Necro put a finger up to his chin. "Yeah, I wonder what’s up with today. How perplexing."
Su Yu hopped over to him with a skeptical stare. "You know, now that I’m getting a closer look at you, your eyes shine brighter than yesterday. Are you... so sort of chaleon...?"
"A chaleon?" Necro parroted.
"Yeah, you know, like the strange color-changing lizard?" Su Yu explained.
"Hmm... Maybe...?"
Necro himself appeared confused.
"Why did you answer like there’s a chance??"
Necro’s expression turned deadly serious, taking Su Yu a bit by surprise. She turned red as a beet under his ’passionate’ gaze.
