She took out the laptop from her bag and put it in front of .
"What is this for?"
"Live recording"
"Oh"
She took out a small cara and wore it on her forehead, like it was so kind of headband.
"It will hurt a little. Please endure it"
"Finish it quickly"
[Calm down, Das]
"I am calm!"
"Sorry?"
"It wasn't talking to you"
She began tattooing.
"Does it hurt?"
"I doesn't"
"If it hurts, then I can slow down"
"It doesn't hurt. Please finish it quickly"
It doesn't hurt at all.
I can't even feel anything in the first place.
After tattooing for a while, she stopped.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"I can't do it"
"What do you an?"
"I need to talk while doing it. And you just...I am sorry I can continue"
"Wait, what's wrong?"
"I am sorry"
"What do you an by can't continue it? It's your damn job!"
"I need to concentrate. And you...I just feel pressured"
"Okay. You can take your ti drawing. Just don't leave it incomplete"
"I need to keep myself concentrated. And for that, I need to keep talking. Will you talk with ?"
Is she being serious?!
"Fine. But please continue"
She started tattooing it again.
"What's your na?" she asked.
We are starting from there?!
"I am Das"
"Last ti I saw you, you were on the lap of Queen Layla"
"You knew my grandmother?"
"I used to live in her NGO until I was adopted by my current parents"
"I see"
"She had passed away when I ca back to greet her, but your mom was there. She is as kind as Queen Layla"
"Hmm"
"I was around age 8 when I got adopted by my current parents, who used to be tattooist"
"You learned this from them?"
"Indeed. They taught everything they knew. And here I am today"
"What about your parents?"
"They are at ho. Taking care of my daughter--what's going on?"
"What's wrong?"
"The tattoo...it disappeared!"
I looked at the laptop screen, and there was no tattoo on my back.
I am sure it was half done when I saw it last ti.
"What is the aning of this?"
[Your regenerating ability. Those cells died and new ones are replaced with it]
"Say..uh..what's your na?"
"It's Tina"
"So Tina. Tell this. The cells which get replaced by the cells which had ink in them, don't the old cells pass the ink to the new cells before dying?"
"They do"
Then why...I see. Not only the cells, but its content also got replaced.
Having a tattoo would be impossible now.
Every ti she will draw, it will just disappear.
What should I...do.
I can use the Oyuoris in my body.
"Lily, use Oyuoris and replace the tattoo with it"
"What?"
[It will be my first ti controlling the Oyuoris]
"It's okay. I know you can do it"
"Are you talking with soone?" she asked.
"I was just talking to myself. Please continue drawing the tattoo"
"But how did it disappear? I will get the new ink"
"No need. It will work now"
"If you say so"
She started tattooing again.
After about an hour, half on the crest was done.
"You were right. It's not disappearing now"
"Hmm"
Actually it is disappearing, but Lily is replaying Oyuoris with it.
"Is the size okay? I can resize it now if you want"
"No, it's perfect"
"Okay. Please don't move. I have to do it in detail now"
It wasn't hurting or anything, but...I could feel sothing burning inside .
It was bearable at first, but now. It burns like hell.
I feel like lava is flowing inside .
It hurts!
"Done"
I quickly got up.
"How is it?"
"It's fine"
I wore my clothes and got out of the room.
Daulla, Lier, and mom were standing outside the room.
"Are you done?" mom asked.
"Yeah"
"Show " Lier insisted.
"Later"
"Let's talk the rest while eating lunch" Daulla suggested.
"Yeah"
We were walking towards the dinner hall.
It hurts!
I can't even walk straight.
"Turn off the pain receptors!"
"What?" mom looked back.
"Did you say sothing?" Lier turned back.
"No"
[They are already off]
Then why the hell is my body burning?!
"You know Lil Das. Today's lunch is made by my Ange, Lady Lier and --"
"Later Daulla. I am going to my room"
"What about lunch?" mom yelled.
"I will eat it later"
"Das!" Lier called out.
"Not now, Lier. And no one shall co into my room!"
I hastily walked over and went into my room.
"Argh!"
My legs gave out, and I fell on the floor.
[What's wrong, Das!]
"My body...everything is burning!"
[All the pain receptors are off]
"Then"
[Our bodies, feelings, and emotions are synced and I don't feel any pain]
"It hurts!"
[Calm down, Das. I will do--]
"Please shut up for a while, Lily"
It hurts.
It really hurts.
I feel like every single cell of my body is being ripped apart one by one.
I have never felt this much pain before.
I didn't feel this much pain even when I injected Oyuoris into my body.
"Argh!"
[Das]
"Don't worry, Lily"
[I am sorry I am useless]
"Argh!"
It was hurting so badly that I was dragging my body on the floor.
"Aaaa!"
I got up and started crawling.
Just what is going on?
I didn't feel anything when I was tattooing, and as soon as I used Oyuoris.
Is it because of Oyuoris? But I thought they were perfectly mixed with my blood.
What else could have caused this?
"My neck"
My neck was burning like I had eaten fire.
Bleh~
[Das!]
I vomited blood.
"I am okay"
I don't feel any pain now.
[I am sorry]
"It's not your fault"
[Activating Frenzy Mode]
"What was that?"
[I don't know. Your system is automatically--]
[Error. The slots are empty]
"What's going on, Lily?
[Sothing was activated, but the process failed due to lack of activated slots]
"Slots? You an..."
I quickly took out my phone and checked my eye.
"It's red!"
[Your system didn't ask for any permission this ti]
"Turn my eye back to normal"
[Okay]
I feel a little better now.
"I am coming in, Das"
Lier opened the door.
It was hurting so badly that I had forgotten to lock the door.
