Chapter 92 - Extra – Bloody Fairy Tale (2) (1/2)
“Swoosh……….”
Under the blood-red moonlight, the salty and bloody sea breeze blew over. Waves crashed against the dark reefs, washing away the blood stains and spreading the strong bloody smell around.
Behind the silver-haired man laid a large pile of deformed skeletons. These bones were mostly old and broken but some of them also appeared very fresh and even still had remnants of bloody-red flesh and bloodstains. As it soaked in the sea water, the water around it turned a pale red.
Met with this horribly grotesque scene and along with the smooth black tentacles that made up the man’s lower half, even if he smiled gently at him, Cheng Zhi Chu was still shocked. He couldn’t help but involuntarily take a step back.
“Don’t be scared Zhi Chu. Come here.”
Seeing him back away, the man smiled and wasn’t angry. Several tentacles silently slipped over to grab onto Cheng Zhi Chu’s wrist. Others pushed him from behind, forcing him to move closer to the man.
Cheng Zhi Chu was pulled along by the tentacles and he stumbled along. He suddenly tripped over a tentacle that laid on the reef. Using this opportunity, the man reached out to catch him and held him tightly in his embrace. A large patch of cold and pale skin came into contact with Cheng Zhi Chu who couldn’t help but shiver.
The golden-haired young man leaned against the reef watching them. He suddenly laughed and said: “Looks like brother can finally realise his wish…….When do you plan on holding the wedding?”
As he said that, the tentacles behind him swayed back and forth. It was as if he was swaying his tail. It stirred up the water around him and the corpses floating in the water rose and fell along with the waves. The scene itself was particularly horrifying.
“If possible, naturally the sooner the better.” The man rubbed Cheng Zhi Chu’s cheeks and said with a hint of a smile, “But I am willing to respect your opinion. Zhi Chu, if you can’t adapt to it for the time being, I can give you some time to get used to it.”
Cheng Zhi Chu was stunned for a moment. He didn’t know what wedding ceremony they’re referring to.
Are they talking about the wedding between the two of them? But according to the plot, he should he marrying the neighbouring country’s princess and not with a merman……….That is, if this man can still be considered a “merman”………..
Noticing his confused expression, the man gently pinched his cheek. He smiled and asked: “Why, have you forgotten about the promise you made to me?”
Cheng Zhi Chu heard those words and his heart jumped. Of course, he wouldn’t know about the promises he made but he didn’t dare ask as he was afraid that he would anger the merman.
Fortunately, the young man explained to him as a matter of factly: “Zhi Chu is human. He was still young at that time so he must have forgotten all about it.”
He said that and smiled, revealing a cute canine.
“Let me explain. At that time, you promised my brother that when you come of age, you will marry him. We would take you back to the sea and you will spend your entire lifetime with my brother.”
“At that time my brother planted a seed in your mind that would make you come to the sea on the day that you come of age and we would come to pick you up.”
The silver-haired man rubbed Cheng Zhi Chu’s wet hair and said: “The wedding isn’t urgent. We can discuss it slowly. We will take you back first.”
He said that and then he raised his hand. Using his sharp nail, he cut his wrist lightly. He then brought the bleeding wound over to Cheng Zhi Chu’s lips. He coaxed him: “Here, drink some of my blood. After a while, you will be able to move and breathe freely in the water.”
Cheng Zhi Chu looked at the dark and deep sea. He didn’t want to go into the deep sea with these brothers. Just thinking about it made him feel suffocated. He quickly asked the system in his mind:
Is the merman brother a projection that I need to kiss?
【Yes, he is……..]
After receiving a positive response from the system, Cheng Zhi Chu no longer hesitated. Under the silver-haired man’s surprised look, he supported the man’s face and quickly moved in to kiss him on the lips.
The man was stunned for a moment. The arms embracing Cheng Zhi Chu then tightened around him and he began to kiss him deeply. The tentacles on the ground became to move and, after a moment, it couldn’t help but move over to explore Cheng Zhi Chu’s body. Over the thin layer of clothes, it wrapped tightly around his body.
Cheng Zhi Chu’s kiss instantly ignited the man’s strong desires and possessiveness. He was no longer able to control himself and he had succumbed to the instincts of a beast. While biting his lips, he used his tentacles to envelop Cheng Zhi Chu’s body.
“Wait a minute brother. Don’t do it here……..”
The young man’s face was a little red. He quickly used his tentacles to tap his brother’s shoulder and awaken him from his desires. He quickly explained: “You clearly said that you wanted to give Zhi Chu the perfect experience. Isn’t it inappropriate doing it here?”
“……..You’re right.”
The man was silent for a few seconds. The tentacles that wrapped around Cheng Zhi Chu then slowly receded. The dark silver eyes of his recovered a little light as he released his hold of the red-faced Cheng Zhi Chu. He gently kissed his forehead and said hoarsely:
“Sorry Zhi Chu. I have waited too long and couldn’t control myself. I hope you don’t mind.”
“Huff…….Huff……….”
Cheng Zhi Chu shook his head while gasping for air to indicate that he didn’t mind. Exhausted, he leaned against the man’s shoulder and waited for his ability to take effect.
But after waiting for a while, he didn’t see any signs of the man disappearing. He panicked and asked the system: Why isn’t my ability working? Is it getting delayed?
【……..I haven’t finished speaking. You were in too much of a hurry.]
The system coughed and said: 【He is a soul projection but, as I have already told you before, there isn’t just one projection in this world. His brother is also another soul projection. You need to kiss the younger brother too.]
【Also, this instance has an aspect that is different to the other instances. After kissing, the projections will not disappear. The ability will only take effect after you kiss all the projections.]
……….Even the younger brother needs to be kissed?
Cheng Zhi Chu heard this and subconsciously looked over at the golden-haired young man. The handsome young man’s eyes were clear and bright. When their eyes met, he revealed a pure smile that resembled those of a puppy.
The young man spoke very happily: “After we go back, you can have your wedding and then Zhi Chu can give birth to brother’s baby………I’m really looking forward to it. Our family hasn’t had a new life for the past hundreds of years…………..”
“…………..” Cheng Zhi Chu was originally mulling over how he should kiss the young man when he heard his words. He was instantly stunned and he couldn’t help but ask with confusion: “………Give birth?”
“Yes, give birth.”
The young man nodded seriously. Seeing that his brother didn’t have the intention to stop him, he continued.
“Mermaids like us cannot get pregnant but we can breed with any race. Gender doesn’t matter. So, brother can inject you with mermaid seeds and you can give birth. It won’t be long until you lay lots of cute mermaid eggs.”
His eyes curved as he smiled but at this moment this appearance of his in Cheng Zhi Chu’s eyes was even more terrifying than a devil’s.
The man also hugged Cheng Zhi Chu from behind. With both hands on Cheng Zhi Chu’s lower abdomen, he smiled and said: “I’m also looking forward to it. Zhi Chu, our children will be the cutest and the loveliest. In the future they will also be the strongest…….”
No! Go away!! He’s not a mother hen, he’s a man! Why should he lay eggs for a monster?! Even if this man is Bai Yi’s projection……..That is still absolutely impossible!
Cheng Zhi Chu was scared pale. He reached out and wanted to grab the young man’s hand and quickly completely the task but at this moment the older man suddenly pinched his jaw and forcefully fed Cheng Zhi Chu his blood.
“Be good. Sleep for a while. We will take you back.”
The bloody taste spread through his mouth. Cheng Zhi Chu was horrified to find that he felt a strong sense of drowsiness. He felt weaker and weaker until even his eyes couldn’t be opened. Eventually he softly collapsed into the man’s arms and fell unconscious.
………..
【Hey, wake up. Hurry and wake up!]
The faint sound of the system could be heard in Cheng Zhi Chu’s mind. He slowly opened his eyes and reacted after a few seconds of delay. He suddenly remembered the situation he’s in and sat up quickly while covered in cold sweat. He shouted out in horror: “I don’t want to give birth!!!”
“……..give birth…….irth…….”
But what responded to him wasn’t anyone’s voice but his own echoes. It continued to echo around in this empty space.
Cheng Zhi Chu was surprised. He found himself in a completely different environment. The surroundings were very strange. He seemed to be inside an ice crystal cave. There were uneven edges and corners throughout which were all made of transparent crystals. It was very beautiful but also very strange.
Where is this place? Cheng Zhi Chu asked the system in panic: Did the mermen take me here?
【No, this isn’t the mermaid’s palace. Only your consciousness drifted over into a strange place. Your body is still with the mermen.]
Did I get eaten by them?! Cheng Zhi Chu was shocked.
