The Yellow-Haired Villain in Soaring Phoenix’s Novels Also Desires Happiness

Chapter 64、Whispers of the God of Love (Part Four)

Dust filled the air.

The shockwave whipped up a fierce wind, leaving Mu En’s hair in disarray.

At the same time, his heart was in disarray.

Fortunately, his heart was strong.

Holding the grilled fish in his hand, Mu En pondered for a moment and silently turned back around.

—Let’s pretend I didn’t see that.

It’s just a mere meteorite impact; there’s no way a symbiotic alien would pop out and try to conquer the world or something. What’s there to make such a fuss about?

I’m a man who has endured the baptism of dump trucks and even experienced a crossover. How could I possibly lack this little bit of composure?

Eat fish, eat fish, never mind it.

Creak—

Mu En was just about to take a bite of the fragrant grilled fish when he suddenly heard a sharp sound from the direction of the impact, enveloped in smoke and dust.

It sounded like metal opening and closing.

Hmm?

Mu En opened his mouth, his expression slightly startled.

Metal opening and closing?

You’re just a meteorite; how could you make such a sound?

Could it be…

A spaceship?

Mu En’s eyes widened suddenly.

The impact wasn’t from a meteorite, but from a lost spaceship!

And the sound now was the spaceship’s hatch opening, with aliens about to emerge for their exciting first walk on solid ground.

That’s a small step for me, but a giant leap for all the Celestial beings.

Sorry, I got sidetracked.

But aliens, oh how I want to take a look…

No, how could it possibly be aliens? This is a Western fantasy world! If aliens really appeared, the readers would surely curse the author for writing such nonsense.

It must be something else.

But that doesn’t matter.

Today, I must finish the fish in my hands.

I mean, not even Jesus could stop me.

“Ahem…”

Just as Mu En tried to put the grilled fish in his mouth again, he suddenly heard a cough from behind, choked by the dust.

That voice sounded so familiar.

It seemed like An.

Haha, how could that be? I’ve run so far; how could An possibly find me?

An isn’t a dog; he can’t smell me from several kilometers away.

“……”

But, I mean but.

There really is that tiny bit of possibility, is it really An?

That metallic opening and closing sound, if it’s An’s ability… then it makes sense.

Mu En looked down at the fish in his hand, fell silent for a moment… then suddenly threw it to the ground.

“Damn it, you’ve made me suffer!”

Then without another word, he slipped away, ready to make a run for it.

Jesus couldn’t stop him, but An was much scarier than Jesus.

Jesus wouldn’t play bondage with him!

But—

“Sir?”

It seemed to be too late.

A familiar voice of confusion came from behind.

It really was An!

“Haha…”

Mu En let out a dry laugh from his throat, stiffly turned around, and awkwardly said:

“Long time no see, An, have you been… well… lately?”

Mu En had originally planned to start with a trifecta of pick-up lines to stabilize An before saying anything else, but before he could even make a move, he silently retracted the whole set.

An seemed a bit off now.

Her hair was disheveled, her expression haggard, and her usually neat maid outfit was now covered in dirt, with several places even torn, exposing her pale skin.

Behind her, in the pit formed by the recent impact, there should be a metallic sphere that An had actively condensed, still lying there quietly, but the surface of the metallic sphere was now covered in gruesome scars and dents, as if it had suffered some fierce attack.

“An, what happened?”

Even if he was dense, Mu En noticed the problem, his smile fading, and his expression grew serious.

“Are you fighting someone?”

“……”

An didn’t answer directly. She stared intently at Mu En for a moment, then took a deep breath, her expression returning to normal, revealing a smile:

“It’s nothing, sir.”

“Nonsense, you look like this…”

“I just tripped, that’s all.”

“Are you trying to fool a fool?”

“I am speaking the truth.”

After settling down a bit, he said:

“And, aren’t you going to run away, young master? If you don’t run, then I can only take you back.”

“This time, I will lock the young master in a special cage, so that the young master can never escape.”

Saying this, An took two steps forward, seemingly really about to catch Mu En.

But Mu En did not move.

He stared straight at An.

Watching An approach step by step.

A rare expression of dignity belonging to the Duke’s son, a young master of the Campbell family, appeared on his face.

“Then come and catch me.”

“…”

“An, come catch me, I won’t run!”

“…”

An’s hand reached halfway, just about to touch Mu En, when it suddenly drooped in defeat.

A helpless bitter smile appeared on his face:

“At this moment, shouldn’t the young master take the chance to slip away? This is clearly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”

“You chase me, then I run. If you don’t chase me, why should I run?”

Mu En shrugged, giving a reason he didn’t even believe himself, then softly asked:

From noble mtl dot com

“Answer me, what exactly happened, An.”

“Actually…”

An sighed helplessly, just about to say something when he was suddenly interrupted by a loud rumble.

From behind the small mountain opposite Mu En, a sound like the earth trembling suddenly erupted.

At the top of the small mountain, countless tall trees suddenly toppled over, and the migratory birds that hadn’t yet taken off flew out of the woods, as if trying to escape from something.

“Master—”

“Where are you? Come and accept my love.”

“I love you.”

It was as if hundreds of people were shouting together, many voices mixed together, echoing through the mountains and forests, causing pain in the ears.

Mu En instinctively covered his ears, and before he could think about the meaning of those words, he saw…

A monster nearly as tall as the small mountain slowly emerging from the other side of the mountain.

“What is that—”

Mu En stared at the monster, unable to help but widen his eyes, his mouth inadvertently opening wide enough to fit a duck egg.

The grotesque flesh grew wildly, forming bizarre limbs that flailed about chaotically, like a body stitched together from countless humans, slowly writhing on the ground. The surface it crawled over was marked with what seemed to be stains soaked in blood, causing the plants it touched to wither instantly.

Countless twisted hands and feet moved erratically across the monster’s disordered skin, like weeds swaying in the autumn wind.

And on the monster’s chest, hundreds of human faces were densely packed together, some crying, some laughing, some sorrowful, some angry, some numb, some in despair.

Yet, regardless of the emotions in their eyes, they all wore faint smiles, calling out with deep affection:

“I love you…”

“What the hell.”

Looking at the monster, Mu En couldn’t help but shiver, feeling his sanity plummet.

In the time it took to catch a fish, where did this bizarre creature come from?

In his memory, there was no beast that looked so refreshingly unconventional.

A new species mutated from drinking nuclear waste?

No, no, this world doesn’t have that kind of country.

And…

Mu En’s gaze swept over the monster again, especially those densely packed human faces on its chest, making him feel a creeping dread of claustrophobia.

No matter how he looked at it, this thing… had to be related to humans, right?
