Chapter 88 Bewitching
Chapter 88: Seduction
The Goddess's power of concealment was indeed very strong; Ms. M didn't discover what happened last night, and Lu Ze's initial worries lessened a bit.
After feeling relieved, the suppressed drowsiness surged over him.
"Cecilia, I'm going to get some sleep," Lu Ze yawned, feeling immense nostalgia for his bed. "Don't wake me before lunch." He turned and went upstairs, entered his bedroom, merely took off his outer clothes, climbed onto the bed, and quickly fell into a dream.
In the living room downstairs, Ms. M's eyes followed Lu Ze until he entered his room and closed the door.
"...Where were we just now?"
She then retracted her gaze and asked Cecilia with a smile.
"You just said that I could also become a Beyonder."
Cecilia said cautiously and politely.
Horrible and bizarre scenes filled Lu Ze's dreams.
He dreamed of disaster befalling the world, he dreamed of everyone suffering. Disease raged, pain was rampant, fire rain fell from the sky, blizzards, floods. People cried out in despair, meeting their end.
Above the blood-rusted sky was an indescribable chaos. Each of Its tentacles was like a giant python capable of devouring heaven and earth, and as the python's mouth opened and closed, endless disasters descended upon the human world.
In the dream, Lu Ze was very helpless. He could only hold his sister's hand and run desperately towards a safe place.
After running for an unknown amount of time, light finally appeared before his eyes.
"This is great, Cecilia, we're saved!"
He looked back in surprise, wanting to share his joy with his sister, but he suddenly saw that in his hand he only held a severed palm and a section of a wrist.
"Ah!"
Lu Ze exclaimed, jumping up from the bed.
He panted heavily, looking around, finally recognizing his bedroom.
"...Was it a nightmare?"
Feeling cold sweat trickling down his forehead, he murmured unconsciously.
The last time he had a nightmare was the night he was attacked by Haynes. No, according to this logic, this is definitely not a simple nightmare! This is spirituality warning me!
He suddenly became alert. The last nightmare he had was before an attack, and this nightmare also seemed to have a similar implication.
What was in the dream? Disaster, and his sister being harmed.
Did I forget something?
Lu Ze thought back carefully and suddenly shivered.
When he entered the door just now, he was very tired, and his only energy was focused on being wary of Ms. M, forgetting to pay attention to Cecilia. She had been alone with that female Lunatic all night, and when he entered just now, both of them were still sitting on the sofa. What were they doing, chatting?
She wouldn't instill anything dangerous in my sister, would she!
Thinking of this, Lu Ze didn't care about anything else, immediately got up, threw on some clothes, and rushed downstairs.
As he expected, Ms. M and Cecilia were both sitting on the sofa. Ms. M seemed to be explaining something to his sister. Hearing Lu Ze's movements, they stopped and looked at him.
"Lu Ze, what's wrong?"
Cecilia asked, somewhat surprised, seeing his abnormality.
Lu Ze didn't speak, but instead walked directly over, pulled his sister behind him, and looked at Ms. M vigilantly, "What do you want to do to my sister?"
Ms. M smiled, as if she hadn't understood Lu Ze's words, and tilted her head slightly, her blood-red lustrous hair smoothly falling from her shoulders. A mature and beautiful woman making such a gesture seemed very charming and alluring. But Lu Ze only felt that she was like a venomous snake flicking its tongue.
"I'm just teaching your sister some basic knowledge of mysticism."
Ms. M explained calmly, "Filling the obligation that you, as her brother, haven't fulfilled, helping your sister understand a more real world."
Cecilia and Lu Ze had experienced Beyonder events together and knew that her brother and the people from Blackthorn Security Company all had some peculiar abilities. But for more specific details, due to confidentiality clauses and not wanting to worry his sister, Lu Ze hadn't told her in detail.
Lu Ze turned and glanced at Cecilia.
Cecilia, being of one mind with him, immediately understood what he meant, leaned close to his ear, and whispered everything Ms. M had taught her. It was basically basic content like potions, Sequence, and occupations.
"What do you intend to do by telling Cecilia all this?"
While Lu Ze breathed a sigh of relief, he was also a little puzzled.
"Because I feel it's unfair to your sister."
Ms. M smiled, giving an incredible answer, "You, as her brother, have already become a Beyonder and gained extraordinary abilities. But your sister can only follow behind her brother, playing a supporting role who looks up to you, cheering for you, serving you like a servant..."
"I've never thought that way!"
Hearing Ms. M's words, Cecilia was first surprised, then became angry, "You don't know what kind of person my brother is, nor do you know what kind of days we've spent together. Stop making arbitrary assumptions here!"
"Is that so, I'm very sorry."
Ms. M didn't get angry at being refuted, but smiled and continued to ask, "However, you do long for the Beyonder world, don't you?"
Cecilia pursed her lips and did not answer.
Lu Ze couldn't help but glance at his sister.
Yes, normal people would hope to gain Beyonder abilities, and it was completely understandable for Cecilia to have similar thoughts. It was his oversight as a brother that he hadn't told his sister about the dangers and madness of the Beyonder world.
"Sorry, Cecilia."
He said softly, "I just wanted you to have a more stable life, so I didn't tell you these things normally. Of course, you can also choose such a life. But there's no need to rely on her; you can completely join the Nighthawks. How good would it be for us to be official Beyonders honorably? Absolutely do not believe any of this female Lunatic's nonsense."
"I'm sorry, Brother."
Cecilia looked like she was about to cry, a mist clouding her beautiful large eyes, "I just wanted to help you. I originally wanted to test her and get information from her; it wasn't like she said."
"It's okay."
What else could Lu Ze say? He could only comfort his sister. He also understood his sister's uneasiness at the moment, her anxiety to change the status quo. She didn't know about Lu Ze's events from last night. "Trust me, things will be resolved very soon."
He looked up at the clock; it was almost eleven o'clock. Although he was still a bit tired, he was no longer in the mood to sleep. Instead, he took Cecilia into the kitchen and began preparing today's lunch.
He left Ms. M on the sofa, and Ms. M also had no reaction, but waited contentedly until the food was served, then she naturally sat down at the dining table.
Lu Ze ignored her and ate his meal.
"Oh, by the way, regarding the large death case yesterday, would you like to hear some clues from me?"
At this moment, Ms. M suddenly asked, as if she had just remembered, "I can give you a hint: this matter is related to a Demoness."
A Demoness?
Lu Ze's hand, reaching for the bread, couldn't help
