Days and nights of pursuit of Dottore

Chapter 404 You are so good...

Cheng Yan's sudden appearance beside her did not bring any surprise to Villette. The shocking bloodstain on her neck made her black clothes darker, which was still wet.

"What's going on..." Villette's pupils constricted and he spoke in a lost voice.

Cheng Yan seemed to have seen a life-saving straw. He rushed forward and grabbed Villette's wrist tightly.

"Do you still have the water ball that trapped me last time? Use your power to keep me here!"

Seeing the panic-stricken face and Cheng Yan's miserable appearance, Villette had endless questions to ask, but he still followed Cheng Yan's instructions and released a strand of water-like silk thread to wrap around his wrist.

Cheng Yan stared at the transparent water marks on his wrist before he breathed a sigh of relief and began to breathe heavily.

"Thank you, I'm glad to have you."

"Now can you tell me what happened? Are you hurt?"

Seeing the worry in Villette's eyes, the first thing that came to Cheng Yan's heart was not touching, but full of self-blame.

"Then Villette, if I say that my arrival will lead to the destruction of Teyvat..."

Villette frowned, "What do you mean? Are you and Teyvat... in a conflicting relationship?"

Cheng Yan's tone was unstable, and he tried hard to hold back his tears. "Yes, so you don't have to like me, and you can't be so nice to me anymore. You have noticed the abnormal spatial force in me because there is a system in my head..."

His voice was trembling so much that it was difficult for him to speak, but Cheng Yan had to grab the only life-saving straw in front of him.

"He asked me to get close to you and gain your favor. You are very important to Teyvat. The more you like me, the weaker Teyvat will be... Therefore, the reason why Teyvat is unstable now is all because of me. I am an accomplice."

The endless feeling of impact almost chiseled Cheng Yan's head open, and the fingers grabbing Villette's sleeves trembled continuously.

"Then Villette, you are different from the others. Your power can affect the system. Perhaps you are the only one who can save Teyvat. Kill me, and you will forget all the memories related to me. This place will definitely be restored to normal."

There was genuine hope in Cheng Yan's eyes that was about to overflow.

He hoped very much that all this was just a beautiful dream he had before he died. When he came here, every person he met was the person he had been entangled with in his foolish wishful thinking. Until he woke up from the dream, Teyvat was still Teyvat, and he, Cheng Yan, was fine no matter what, it didn't matter whether he was dead or alive.

The suffocating feeling in his chest became stronger, and a dagger appeared in Cheng Yan's palm again. The pain that he could not bear before was now what he desperately wanted to feel.

If he had known this would be the case from the beginning, he would not have chosen to come here.

The price of having a sweet dream is too high. The suppression from the system's dimensionality reduction attack makes him helpless except to commit suicide to cut off the connection between the system and Teyvat.

If only…if only there was a better way.

The dagger in his hand could not stab forward no matter what, and Villette noticed it and snatched it away with force.

"Cheng Yan, I have never said such words to you. It's just that when facing difficulties, the only solution you want is to commit suicide?"

The tone was stern and Cheng Yan blinked blankly, tears streaming down his cheeks.

"No...I don't want to die, at least not before I get all of your forgiveness."

"Then let's take a gamble."

That Villette took Cheng Yan's hand and put it in front of her lips, looking like she was kissing him.

"Didn't you say that I can restrain the spatial power of the system you mentioned? Then let me give you a sense of security for the time being, and you just do what you want to do. Over the past thousands of years, Teyvat has experienced countless crises. All things are in a cycle of life and death. Even if we are going to perish, we should try our best to make a final struggle."

Cheng Yan finally regained his composure. He held Villette's hand tightly, tears glistening in his eyes.

"Didn't I tell you not to be so nice to me? You should be suspicious of me now. Maybe if you just kill me, the crisis in Teyvat will be over."

Narvelette patted him gently on the back.

“If, as you said, the target of the power you mentioned is Teyvat, even if I kill you, there will be another person, and the next person will come here with the same purpose as you. Compared to these, I hope that the person in front of me is you.”
