"Since you disappeared, you might as well consider yourself dead. There was a bastard from IA who threw a high-explosive grenade in here. Although I eventually managed to suppress his psychic waves, I lost my anchor in the process. Well, at that moment, you were passing by with those strange waves emanating from you, so I just decided to latch onto you." Dream Butterfly didn't hide anything and straightforwardly explained the situation to Yang Xiaoyou.
Hearing this kind of explanation, Yang Xiaoyou couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine.
Disappeared.
Was that a soul? Still attached to her? It truly felt like a genuine spiritual bondage.
Even in her past life, as strong as she was, she had never noticed the other’s existence. This meant that after anchoring herself onto her body, her spiritual power continued to steadily rise by relying on her.
Moreover, if she had always been residing within her, then all of Yang Xiaoyou's experiences...
"That's right. From the moment you were captured and taken to the lab for experiments, to the end when you were blown up, I know everything about your experiences better than you do—everything from your favorite foods to your preferred positions and types." The personality of Dream Butterfly seemed to chuckle lightly at this moment, appearing even more disoriented.
It seemed that while gaining extraordinary psychic power, her body had become quite sensitive to alcohol. After taking over the main personality, even the secondary personality was now affected in such a way.
And what she said...
Yang Xiaoyou, whose ability to maintain composure had reached a certain level, felt a sense of embarrassment as she listened to Dream Butterfly's increasingly rambling tone.
She never expected that even standing atop her peak in her past life, she would still be burdened with a dead weight.
Yet it was precisely because of this dead weight that she was given an opportunity akin to rebirth.
"Not quite! At first, there were moments when someone sensed my presence. Your fiancé seemed to have some awareness of me and tried several times to drag you to the shrine for an exorcism. Hehe. Back then, your strength hadn’t fully developed yet." As Dream Butterfly's ramblings grew more indistinct, Yang Xiaoyou couldn’t help but recall Feng Lin's figure from back then.
Looking at Dream Butterfly, a strange expression crossed Yang Xiaoyou's face.
After all, this character's image had completely collapsed in his mind. Having received such a massive amount of information, no matter what heavy news came next, Yang Xiaoyou felt he could handle it.
However, how to deal with his relationship with Dream Butterfly was truly giving him a headache.
At the moment, she was inebriated, and it was impossible to define her personality or character.
But regardless, being alone and having no one to talk to, it seemed that the obsessive gaze she had fixed on him throughout his previous life had likely twisted her personality in some way.
Yet, no matter what, even his Memory Fragments were brought by her. If it came to secrets, she certainly held just as many as he did. After all, he primarily obtained Memory Fragments, while Dream Butterfly had an entire complete personality attached to him.
She indeed seemed to harbor no ill will toward him; perhaps the ghostly figure who had watched over him for an entire lifetime had developed some strange and distorted feelings for him.
After a while of talking to herself, Dream Butterfly suddenly swayed and fell over. Yang Xiaoyou reached out and caught her as she fell asleep instantly.
Looking at her serene sleeping face and the faint scent of alcohol on her breath, Yang Xiaoyou pressed his temples in frustration.
She had already been a huge trouble before; now he realized that the mess brought by this Fool far exceeded his expectations.
He then picked her up and headed back to his place.
After squeezing a few parts of her body to sense her condition, Yang Xiaoyou found that there was no hidden power within her aside from her appearance.
Her ability to reach Hive Core Member-level mobility didn’t seem to stem from anything ordinary. It was likely due to her high level of cultivation, which allowed her mental power to directly replace nerves and even tendons. At critical moments, this provided some mental stimulation that granted exceptional mobility for a period of time.
In such circumstances, combined with her unparalleled Spirit Realm, it was only natural that she could escape unscathed from Luo Guohui's grasp with the assistance of those magical artifacts.
It was likely that even Luo Guohui would find himself troubled and bewildered when faced with a Spirit Realm of this overwhelming caliber.
Indeed, having fully penetrated the barrier of the world line with her complete personality intact, her current mental power likely surpassed that of her main persona, Dream Butterfly, by a significant margin! She had truly grown into a formidable being.
With all her abilities rooted in the realm of the mind, she did not have to endure the tragic experience of starting over from scratch like someone else might.
From the ramblings of this fellow during the last moments, Yang Xiaoyou began to understand some aspects of the process that allowed her to bring her Memory Fragments into this new world.
This was due to the organization itself conducting relevant research.
Of course, it was still worlds apart from any time machine capable of transferring physical objects; it remained at the most basic particle level, utilizing energy generated from particle collisions, which led to the 'disappearance' of certain fundamental particles.
Coincidentally, Dream Butterfly had participated in this research, and that underground base where everything went awry was specifically dedicated to such studies.
It was precisely because of this that what seemed like a coincidence turned out to be an inevitable Second Cycle world.
"I had already held the organization in high regard, but now it seems they have delved even deeper in another direction. If it weren't for their foresight and meticulous calculations, they might have been wiped out before Hive Security Company even had a chance to grow. Thankfully, they have always prioritized caution and stability." After tossing the strange Fool onto the bed, Yang Xiaoyou couldn't help but scratch his head.
The distance he had traveled today had indeed put his heart through a rollercoaster of emotions.
He then lay down beside it, continuously processing the heavy news he had received.
Due to Dream Butterfly's inherent characteristics, she had reached a state akin to 'immortal soul.' Although this certainly did not mean she would never die—without protection, an exposed mind could not endure indefinitely—it was still quite terrifying.
The various techniques derived from the different forces have likely surpassed the scope of the forces themselves.
Using her words, she possessed a potential in the realm of Aspects that was not inferior to hers. In her previous life, it was merely due to a lack of extra energy devoted to the realm of Aspects that led to the eventual fragmentation of her personality.
Now, with the path demonstrated by this experienced individual, it seemed feasible to not only catch up but also possibly surpass her.
This notion sparked a sense of yearning within Yang Xiaoyou.
As Yang Xiaoyou pondered these issues, feeling mentally exhausted and on the verge of falling asleep, Dream Butterfly beside her suddenly rolled over without any signs of sleepiness. She slapped Yang Xiaoyou's face and murmured in her sleep, "No matter if it's in this life or the next, you are mine."
Although the words were quite vague, it was evident that her inner personality had once again exhibited a mixed phenomenon. Seeing the Fool sleeping soundly like a pig, Yang Xiaoyou couldn't help but smile wryly at such a declaration after being awakened.
After adjusting Dream Butterfly's position, she got up and walked out of the room to the living room sofa.
When she woke up the next morning, perhaps due to the effects of alcohol, she did not notice any nighttime ambush from the Fool.
It wasn't until she prepared breakfast that Dream Butterfly, still groggy and rubbing her eyes, followed the aroma of food out. Her eyes were still half-closed as she successfully located her target by smell and sat down at the dining table.
Seeing Dream Butterfly revert to her usual adorable state relieved Yang Xiaoyou inexplicably. To be honest, being around someone whose inner personality had been completely exposed made Yang Xiaoyou feel quite uneasy.
Last night had been somewhat manageable due to Dream Butterfly's drunken state; she could extract some information. However, what would happen once she was sober?
Watching Dream Butterfly struggle with frying an egg, Yang Xiaoyou casually asked if she remembered anything from last night.
However, it was clear that Dream Butterfly was aware of another version of herself, and sometimes they could even communicate directly. Yet, she had no recollection of what happened last night.
After all, she was the original owner of this body, while the inner personality was an outsider. Therefore, it seemed that as long as Dream Butterfly's primary consciousness was awake, the inner personality rarely emerged.
Through various observations and reflections on Dream Butterfly's daily life, Yang Xiaoyou drew several conclusions.
The existence of an inner personality in Dream Butterfly could be similar to his own fractured inner self. It was difficult to make a clear judgment on whether it was good or bad; while it had its flaws and negative impacts, it could also play a significant role at certain times.
While having breakfast and casually asking questions, Yang Xiaoyou suddenly realized that he seemed to have forgotten something very important.
Just as he was about to think it over, his phone rang.
Seeing Chen Wuyou's name on the caller ID made him break into a sweat. That guy had acted alone before and even went to Dubai; what excuse did he use back then?
As these thoughts crossed his mind, Yang Xiaoyou swallowed hard and nervously answered the call.
