Leader of the Ark Raiders

"My blood relatives are not scary, people... are the scariest." The deep-sea hunter stared blankly at his palm where the fingerprints had been caught, and murmured.

"Skadi, what are you talking about? Are you okay?" Shen Cangye called her.

The orca girl suddenly came to her senses.

She raised her head in a daze, staring at Shen Cangye's face.

It took her a while to realize her state.

Skadi shuddered and slipped into a melancholy, fearful silence.

The silence lasted for several breaths, and finally Shen Cangye sat down on the side of the bed, ending the static scene.

Skadi moved her body so that Shen Cangye could sit more comfortably.

The little killer whale sat up, propped his forehead, and closed his eyes.

"Shen Cangye..." Skadi whispered, "You haven't slept yet?"

"I just woke up." Shen Cangye said.

The killer whale let out a muffled oh.

"I... I seem to be having a nightmare again." There was a little aggrieved in her tone.

"It's okay, just wake up." Shen Cangye patted her on the back lightly.

Skadi hugged the pillow in her arms a little tighter, and tilted her head to look at him, "Shen Cangye, I'm very scared. I don't know... I don't know what I am... what."

"Don't think too much." Shen Cangye comforted, "You are Skadi, an operator of Rhodes Island, that's all. Let the past pass, don't stay stagnant in the past."

Skadi's lips twitched, but no words came out.

Or she didn't know how to organize the language to express the doubts, entanglements and pains she was full of now.

"Let's take a rest, it's only two o'clock in the morning." Shen Cangye stroked her hair and said.

Skadi moved beside him.

She thought about it, and said directly, carefully, "may I go to your room and sleep with you?"

"Huh?" Shen Cangye was shocked.

He was about to say no.

But he met the straightforward and innocent gaze of the killer whale girl, which was as clear as water, without any distracting thoughts.

He had no choice but to change his words, "Why? My bed is relatively small. If we are crowded together, you will sleep even more restlessly."

"Did you wake me up just now?" Skadi said. "In a dream. I heard your voice."

Shen Cangye didn't know how to explain, "How should I put it..."

"With you here, I won't always have nightmares." Skadi said, "Even if I have nightmares, I won't get lost in them."

She whispered: "I used to have nightmares almost every night, and sometimes I even hurt myself unconsciously in my dreams, more than once."

"So serious?" Shen Cangye was astonished.

Skadi nodded sullenly, "But after moving to that...uh...university dormitory, I suddenly seldom have nightmares, and even if I have nightmares, I can wake up quickly."

"It's because of me?" Shen Cangye didn't quite understand.

Maybe it's because of Blade of the Dark Empire.

Among them, the fragment of the ancient god of Azeroth can make him immune to mental attacks to a certain extent.

Even if he entered a nightmare, he could clearly realize that it was an illusory dream, so that he would not be unable to wake up from being addicted to it.

At least, it will never happen that Skadi hurts herself in a dream like this.

But Shen Cangye did not expect that this would also affect the people around him.

"It's because of you." Skadi replied firmly, "After we came back from Lighthouse Island, you went back to college, and I was in the apartment... At that time, I started to have nightmares again... "

She opened her arm, revealing a scar that had almost healed, "It's just... I accidentally hurt myself again, I'm a little scared."

Shen Cangye touched the scar on the little killer whale's arm.

The recovery ability of the deep-sea hunter is very strong. Even so, this scar has not healed for a long time. It must be that Skadi was seriously injured at the time.

He suddenly felt soft-hearted.

Skadi looked at him seriously, "I think it's because I'm with you that I don't have nightmares."

Shen Cangye sighed, "But didn't you still have a nightmare just now..."

"But your breath makes me feel safe, and I won't be stuck in a nightmare and won't wake up." Skadi said honestly, "At least, the last few times, it was you who woke me up from the nightmare. "

Shen Cangye groaned.

That being said, Skadi used to have nightmares before, and after meeting him, it eased a little.

However, after returning from Dreamland, the situation intensified again.

Could it be that they were really marked by the so-called "God of Dreams"?

Shen Cangye himself does not need to worry.

However, what will this continuous nightmare turn Skadi into?

Countdown... yes - what is that countdown card in the dream?

426. Do You Dare To Bully My Agor Hunter?

"I want to go and sleep with you." Skadi repeated her request in a low voice, "Is that okay, Shen Cangye?"

"But in this case, you..." Shen Cangye said half a sentence, but was hit by Skadi's overly sincere eyes again.

He paused and had to change his words, "I'm not sure if I can really help you relieve your nightmares, you can try again and try to sleep."

He originally meant to let Skadi try again on this bed to see if he could fall asleep.

sleep together?

Ha ha.

——He was worried that he would be chopped off by Gloria tomorrow.

Skadi didn't understand.

She naturally understood another meaning, and took it as a response of permission.

With a smile on the corner of her mouth, she put down her red killer whale pillow, pulled the quilt with both hands and began to fold it.

Shen Cangye didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Skadi, I mean—"

"Huh?" The killer whale girl raised her face.

The light in her eyes made it hard to refuse.

"It's nothing, forget it... come on." Shen Cangye supported his forehead.

He led Skadi to his room, and signaled Skadi to sleep on the bed, while he sat in front of the desk beside him.

Skadi spread out the quilt and lay down on the bed.

Then she wrapped herself in the quilt and shrank obediently to a corner of the bed.

She said seriously: "Shen Cangye, my sleeping position is very good, I will never squeeze you, and I will not snore. If you are uncomfortable sleeping, you can pinch me to wake me up, let me Move away——huh? Shen Cangye, why are you sitting there? Aren't you coming to sleep together?"

Shen Cangye sat on the chair, hesitantly said: "I, I'm not sleepy yet, I'll sleep after you sleep."

"But it's already two o'clock in the morning." Skadi said.

There seemed to be rustling sounds coming from outside the window, but Shen Cangye didn't pay much attention.

He was frowning looking at the killer whale sitting on the bed with a serious face.

"Aren't you going to sleep for a while?" Skadi moved to the side again, and patted the empty space beside her.

"Go to sleep for a while, Shen Cangye. We still have work tomorrow, don't we?"

Shen Cangye had no choice but to say, "If I say no, you will always be with me, right?"

"Yeah." Skadi nodded seriously.

There is no doubt that what she says is what she thinks, and she will not turn the corner.

Shen Cangye rubbed his temples, feeling a little headache.

He had no choice but to touch the edge of the bed and lie down.

Skadi covered him with a quilt very kindly, but Shen Cangye himself was startled.

"Shen Cangye." Skadi said again.

"What's the matter?" Shen Cangye was now terrified by any request from this orca.

If you are not careful, you may have to be cut by Gloria first, and then by Kelsey.

——How dare you touch my hunter?

——Do you know how much trouble you will bring to Rhodes Island if you wantonly treat the subordinates of the partner as a last resort?

There was no shyness or coyness in Skadi's tone, and he said directly: "Can I hug you to sleep? I like to hug something, it feels more secure."

Shen Cangye had already given up on his plan to sleep peacefully tonight.

He still tried to resist, and handed over a pillow, "You hug this pillow."

"This pillow is too big."

"What about your pillow?"

"On the bed in the outer room."

"If you want, I can go outside and get your pillow for you."

"However, your bed is too small. I'm afraid that if I put a pillow on it, it will squeeze you."

"Then let's go to the bed outside. Yours is big enough."

"But I've already made up the quilt, Shen Cangye, look, roll it up like this—there won't be any air leakage."

Shen Cangye really wanted to ask, are you messing with me on purpose?

"Can I hug you to sleep, Shen Cangye?" Skadi asked again, "Your breath makes me feel safe, it's different from a pillow."

"Okay..." Shen Cangye sighed silently.

"Hmm!" The killer whale's tone had an obvious uptick.

She leaned over, wrapped his arms tightly in her arms, and curled up beside him.

"Good night, Shen Cangye." The killer whale rubbed his shoulder.

"Okay, good night."

Skadi slept soundly and soundly, and seemed to have no more nightmares.

However, Shen Cangye couldn't fall asleep for a second.

She became more and more unscrupulous in her sleep, and she rolled her long legs together, hooking his legs, completely treating him as a human pillow.

Shen Cangye opened his eyes until dawn.

Well, I'll sacrifice myself to light the candle of others' selfless devotion...

he thought bitterly.

Seeing the little killer whale like this today, she had a nightmare and looked pitiful, so I left her for the time being.

For his own physical and mental health, Shen Cangye decided that tomorrow he must explain to her clearly the common sense of getting along with people—especially between men and women.

"—Both, did you sleep well last night?" Gloria asked while having breakfast in the morning.

"Very good." Shen Cangye and Skadi replied in unison.

Agor's consul looked at Shen Cangye's dark circles, then at Skadi's refreshed and contented face, and silently wrote down another account in his heart.

——"Although there is no evidence, Kelsey's students may have bullied my hunter."

427. Kelsey: I am best at long and difficult sentences
