You call this a black hand?

The bright sunshine seeps in from the window, warm as spring, and seems to be mixed with some unique vitality and noise on campus.

In the bedroom, Meren stood in front of the mirror and looked at himself, feeling very strange.

Obviously, this is a very special experience, but for him, it is already something very familiar.

Looking back on the past, if I remember correctly, the first time Mellen had such an encounter was with Alyssa, and it was a very bad experience.

Not long ago, he was sharing a body with a nun.

Therefore, although the physical structure has undergone tremendous changes, it did not have any psychological impact on Melen.

After looking in the mirror for a while and getting used to it, he turned around, got dressed, and sat on the bedside, lost in thought. His scattered eyes were also focused on the realm that was currently invisible to the outside.

In other words, it was placed on the blue ball of light.

"It is known that this portal is closely connected to my thinking. Through changes in my thoughts, I can exchange bodies with specific targets."

"But that's not the only thing the portal is capable of."

Mellen began to summarize in his mind.

The emergence of this soul transfer ability actually didn't surprise him at all.

Because he has not forgotten what this field was made of when it was born - there were many factors, including the ability he once had to control the surrounding space.

Seriously speaking, that ethereal ability to spread thoughts into a certain surrounding space should be the prototype of the field.

Mellen has used it to possess others several times in the past.

So rather than saying that this is a unique power of the portal, it is better to say that it is an extension or advancement of some special powers in the past.

"But my intuition tells me that what I can control is not only the souls of those specific people, but also their bodies."

His review of his own behavior gradually paid off.

Considering that many things are extending according to certain ideas in his train of thought, Meren does not doubt that this portal corresponds to the plan of the Lord God Space.

As for the main god space, it must require "players", or reincarnations, to participate in its operation.

How to drag them into the space is a problem that Mellen needs to deal with.

So at this point, it seems that the birth of the portal is obviously a manifestation of the result of this problem.

However, it seems that there is still a long way to go before it can truly evolve into a qualified reincarnation selection mechanism.

Because now, Mellen cannot use it to sense too many candidates, and can only detect a limited few.

Such a few people may have miraculous effects if used properly, but they are of little use to the idea of ​​the main god space itself.

After all, what Melen wants is to obtain a large number of lives based on this to serve as a "skill library", not just a few tool men.

"On the one hand, we need to spread that prayer deeply, and on the other hand, we still need to find ways to continue to improve it..."

Mellen thought.

In fact, he had already started to do the previous thing, but before that, Mellen only regarded this matter as a secondary matter and did not pay much attention to it.

Now his thoughts have changed somewhat.

However, this kind of thing is not done in a hurry and will make immediate progress.

So Mellen stopped paying attention to the changed areas, and instead focused on the surrounding environment. In other words, he investigated his current living status.

Overall, this is a good thing.

Although his current body is a little awkward, no matter how you say it, he can be considered to have escaped, or has a way to temporarily leave the past era.

Considering that the invisible force that maintains his vests still exists in the field, he can even show his true face, or in other words, the face of Egg Wilson.

However, putting on the vest will also cause certain changes to the current body. Mellen felt that his original body was strengthened by the breathing method, so it would be okay to change it. However, the current one belonged to a nun, and he did not dare to experiment casually.

At the same time, along with the good things, it's not without its troubles.

This is not to say that his ability to switch bodies has any sequelae. Mellen checked carefully and found that there was nothing unusual about it. Although there was a certain sense of alienation when using it, this feeling did not affect his ability to feel like he was on his own.

Do everything the same in your body.

The trouble comes from the body itself.

In a sense, apart from the nun herself, Mellon is the only one in this world who understands her body best.

But now, Mellen thinks he doesn't know enough.

Because as he quickly adapted to everything about this body, he was surprised to find that some strange thoughts were constantly invading his mind.

"Is this because of the influence of demon blood?"

Mellen was a little unsure about this.

After Lydia became a nun, the bloodline originally belonging to human wizards was transformed into a bloodline similar to that of demons. Mellen had already initially experienced this situation when the other party came to her door not long ago and transformed.

.

Later, when the two were traveling through time and space, Lydia mentioned that the changes in her bloodline were mainly used to give birth to Alyssa - only by turning herself into an inhuman being and possessing the bloodline of hell can she...

Qualified to be the vessel that carries the birth of the Mother of Hell.

Yes, containers.

Lydia never thought she was Alyssa's mother.

Because there is no father's role in this process, it is completely different from normal human reproduction.

In name only, Anthony is just the performer of the birth ceremony.

And according to Lydia's narration, the couple's life as a couple was completely in name only. Apart from holding hands, they even lost their first kiss after arriving at Melen's place.

The reason is, on the one hand, because of the eunuchs.

On the other hand, according to "Anthony"'s explanation, because of the existence of demon blood, Lydia cannot have too many "distractions", otherwise she will be easily affected by the blood and fall, and it will also involve the mother of hell.

Developmental issues.

After all, the connection between Alyssa and Lydia is much closer than a normal mother and daughter.

As a baby and even as a young child, Alyssa could not withstand the influence of external desires. Although the two parties could not connect at will before this, there was still a certain resonance in the subconscious.

In the past, Mellen would not comment on this explanation. Although he felt that it made sense, he still felt that this statement was questionable and was an excuse Anthony made for himself for some reason.

After all, not all bloodlines can have as bad an influence as Alyssa.

However, now, feeling the influence of this body on his thinking every moment, he felt that maybe this was really the case, and that he had thought wrong before?

"But Lydia doesn't seem to be affected..."

After recalling all the previous events, Mellen was somewhat doubtful about his life.

Could this still be my own problem?

Then after a while, he suddenly realized that the thing was not because of his body's bloodline, and certainly not because of him.

The root of the problem comes from blood, but it is not simply demon blood. When he felt it carefully, Mellen was surprised to realize that he could actually discover the existence of Alyssa in this body!

This kind of discovery is very strange, it is like becoming a pregnant woman, but it is different.

Mellen believed that if it was Lydia herself, she would be familiar with the current feeling, because the two of them were crowded together when traveling through time and space, and it should have been a similar situation.

However, although Melen could not control his body back then, he could speak.

At this time, Alyssa, who existed in the body, was motionless, as if she was sleeping, or she was really like a baby who didn't know what to say.

"Should I try to wake her up?"

This felt a little weird in my heart, but when I thought about it rationally, it made Meren hesitate.

Although he has not paid attention to Alyssa's affairs in the past two days due to many reasons, he knows that she is still sleeping.

It's not certain what consequences this slumber can cause, but prolonged sleep itself is clearly abnormal.

But now, perhaps because he is also an outsider, Mellen feels that he has the ability to contact the sleeping counterpart.

But, is this good or bad?

It can be felt that the sleeping partner may be sublimating in some sense, and for Alyssa herself, this sublimation should be a good thing.

But considering that her bloodline is not a good thing, it is not necessarily a good thing...

Melen hesitated because of this, but before he could think about what to do next, a voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Have things really reached this point?"

The voice sighed softly and said, "Maybe you should re-examine yourself and figure out what it is you want."

The words seemed a bit baffling.

When Mellen looked sideways, a silver-haired figure that was both familiar and unfamiliar came into his eyes.

"...Sylvie?"

…

"Are you really okay?"

When Mellen met an unexpected person in reality, the nun was still communicating with herself in this era in the past time.

Relying on her understanding of herself, she had a very pleasant exchange with the other party.

It can even be said that it has aroused the goodwill of the girl in front of him to a certain extent.

So, when the nun one after another felt that she was inexplicably spinning around visually, and even staggered unconsciously while standing still, the girl in front of her who kept smiling finally couldn't help but greet her.

"Maybe I'm seasick."

The nun replied, and then under the strange gaze of the other party, she said in an uncomfortable tone: "Sorry, Miss Chelsea, I think I should go back and take a rest first."

"It doesn't matter, your body is important."

The girl said considerately: "However, it is rare for wizards to have such symptoms. This may involve soul shock, so I suggest you see the ship's doctor before taking a rest."

"Thank you, I will consider it."

As she said that, she looked like a fat little girl with a round face and smiled apologetically, then turned around and hurried towards the entrance of the cabin.

"What a weird guy."

The blond girl watched his leaving figure from behind, her smile faded, and she murmured thoughtfully, "But it seems like it has nothing to do with my sister..."

She didn't think much about it, because in her opinion, this meeting was just a special person she met during the trip. The two of them had many similar hobbies and interests, which inevitably made her feel some affection and closeness.

But that's all.

Maybe if we continue to meet a few times, the two of them will become friends?

With this idea in mind, the girl Lydia focused on admiring the surrounding seascape.

Her behavior was completely different from the beautiful first meeting in the nun's memory.

But memory can be deceiving. If you think the past is worth remembering, you will fill it with many beautiful emotions in your mind, but in fact it may be just an ordinary trivial matter.

However, as the person involved, the nun did not pay attention to whether there were errors or omissions in her own memory. At this moment, she was at a loss because of the frequent "vertigo" feeling.

"What the hell is going on?"

Sitting on the hard bed in the simple guest room, the fat little girl covered her head with her hands, gritting her teeth in annoyance while resisting the "shaking" of the world around her.

"Damn it Melen, why don't you come out yet?"

Being suddenly pulled into this body, who else could be the instigator besides Melen?

The purpose, she thought, was not for experimentation, but for her to come out and "defeat" another self.

This kind of behavior is very bad. Of course, Lydia is not in a good mood after this bad experience. The inexplicable "seasickness" at this moment must be because she is not the real owner of this body, so she is rejected.

So of course she will be even more angry.

All in all, Lydia, who should have treated the relationship between the two with caution, now couldn't help but want to lose her temper - she was not a docile and honest woman, let alone a cowardly submissive.

However, more than half an hour later, Meren still did not appear. On the contrary, the symptoms of "sea sickness" disappeared inexplicably.

"Isn't it an accident?"

After the initial anger passed, Lydia gradually calmed down, and this idea flashed through her mind.

Although the previous speculation was very possible, there was no evidence after all. During this process, she and Mellen had not exchanged a single word, so it was not certain what the situation was now.

So, Mellen, who disappeared for no reason, was watching from the sidelines? Or did he do something else?

Or what happened?

Think about it carefully, if you want to drag yourself over to attack another self, then even if you have a certain degree of confidence in this, you should keep an eye on it?

After all, this was the first time he tried this kind of thing, not hundreds or thousands of times, so he had no reason to leave...

The more you think about it, the more likely it is that something unexpected will happen.

Lydia couldn't help but become worried, and it was even difficult to calm down and think carefully. She could only stand up and pace back and forth in the narrow guest room to relieve the anxiety in her heart.

During this process, she completely forgot about her previous anger, and unknowingly, the idea of ​​pursuing Meren's rogue behavior was temporarily forgotten.

The state lasted for almost half an hour.

Until she suddenly felt a familiar breath emerging from her body.

"Where were you just now, Mellen?"

Lydia immediately asked: "What on earth is going on?"
