Light Spirit Epic Chapter 2669: Cut the darkness in the blink of an eye

Chapter 2669 slaying the darkness in the momentary light (fifty-one)

Great Britain, the old town of Edinburgh.

A blue swallowtail butterfly is parked on the edge of the clear window lattice.

The sun was pouring down, and it was a cool, breezy afternoon, and the humidity made this little creature very comfortable.

The butterfly began to flap its wings, fluttering, dancing, and fluttering, feeling free in this dreamlike atmosphere.

The world is so beautiful.

The fragrance came, it was a blue rose planted on the floating table by the window. They bloom silently, quietly offering blessings to this beautiful world in the most unknown corner of this dilapidated old city.

The elegant fragrance, with sweetness in the clear, floats in the atmosphere with the breath of water. The person who took care of these blue roses had watered them not long ago, so on their branches and leaves, on their slightly closed petals, there were still small and large droplets of water. These small water droplets, which have become elliptical and slightly flattened by gravity, shone like jewels under the sun, and in their shadows so small that they were almost invisible to the naked eye, they were dazzling rainbows. They are dazzled by the world's most luxurious treasures.

The world is so beautiful. This kind of beauty may not be recognized by the human eye, but the compound eye of a butterfly sees everything. It engraved all this deeply in its own soul, in order to retain the indelible beauty in its short life.

It landed gently on the petals of the rose, attracted by the sweet smell, stretched out its straw, and sucked the honeydew hidden in the depths of the flower.

It asks very little from the world, it is easy to satisfy, it does not know the vastness of the universe, nor its own insignificance, it is just a creature living in the current second. In this second, it glimpsed heaven among the flowers.

The world is so beautiful.

Dream of life and death.

Striving for fame and fortune, galloping for the mouth.

The joys and sorrows, the joys and sorrows.

In one's life, there are too many unreasonable demands and too many choices. I think I can become great, but I don't know that I'm just a speck of dust in the universe.

Through ups and downs, my whole life may be even worse than a butterfly.

While indulging, Butterfly was startled by a figure by the window. Someone approached, but it was only a small butterfly, unable to see the full picture of that tall giant.

It's just...there's a faint scent coming from that figure. Not a floral scent, but an indescribable, almost imperceptible scent.

The figure teased the butterfly with a slender jade finger. The butterfly did not panic and flee, nor did it reject it. It landed on that snow-white finger, only to further confirm the substance of that looming aroma.

Then the figure began to hum a song softly.

[You are, lying still in front of my eyes. ]

[You laugh, you are the whole world. ]

[Outside the window, a gentle breeze is blowing. ]

[My love, resides here. ]

[This love is everlasting, reserved for you only. ]

[Now, you are everything to me. ]

[In, my eternal dream. ]

[Sleep, my beloved child. ]

[Let this lullaby be for you, good night. ]

[May I be always, deep in your heart. ]

[Although I feel sad, I only wish you happiness. ]

[May this lullaby put you to sleep. ]

[Good night, good night, good night. ]

[So precious, deep sleep in my soul. ]

[Where are you hiding and laughing with me? ]

[Perhaps galloping, that sky? ]

[Maybe you are happier than me. ]

[The seeds of hope, sow the fields. Who will be lucky to germinate? ]

[If I am gone;]

[Please don't show any sadness. ]

[You won't hear, I say goodbye. ]

[I will always be in your dreams, in your heart. ]

[Sing this lullaby softly for my little one. ]

[Good night, good night, good night. ]

[Where is the light? ]

[Is it somewhere, watching over us? ]

[May I be always, deep in your heart. ]

[Although I feel sad, I only wish you happiness. ]

[Good night, good night, good night. ]

At the end of the song, the crowd dispersed. The blue swallowtail also left the windowsill and flew out.

And the beautiful and vast world awaits.

Sabo opened his eyes slowly, tears streaked in them.

He seemed to have had a dream, a beautiful but sad dream. Everything in the dream was so vague, yet so real, that he could still hear the lullaby, lingering in his ears.

He can't help but wonder.

It was he who had a dream that he was a butterfly,

Or did the butterfly have a dream that he was a human?

Is everything in front of him real again now? Or is it just a continuation of the dream?

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. If he's really just a butterfly... maybe that's not bad too?

Seems to hear movement in the room, Mason, the blond boy who lives in Sabo's house, pushes the door and probes in to check: "Brother Sabo? Are you awake?"

"Hmm..." The gray rabbit replied in a low voice, a little absent-minded. Probably fell asleep.

Mason smiled wryly, then said, "Are you hungry? I'll get you something to eat. If you can only eat liquid food after the surgery...is thin oatmeal okay? And orange juice."

"Um...please..." Sabo continued in a weak voice. He wasn't particularly hungry, but he slept for a long time, got a little bored, and wanted to eat something to pass the time and get back that feeling of being alive.

There is no real sense of "alive". He has a feeling that [he is not himself]. As Daniel mentioned before, it was probably a side effect of [rejection control agents]. Not only would that drug lower his immunity, but it had all sorts of unknown and weird side effects.

However, even without those drugs affecting him, when would he ever feel alive? There are no dreams and no hopes. Everything is lost, there is nothing left to do. Just living, living like a walking dead. Everything I do now is nothing more than to keep the broken heart a little bit longer.

Does all this really make sense?

"Wait a minute, then," Mason said, turning to leave to make oatmeal.

"Singing..." Sabo whispered suddenly.

"What?"

"Just now...in the haze, I seemed to hear someone singing." said the young rabbit man.

"...You must have heard it wrong?" Mason's eyes flickered, but he turned his back to Sabo, who naturally didn't see it.

"Did you hear me wrong..." Sabo closed his eyes and said, "I always feel like I heard it wrong."

Well, beautiful singing. It is again, so bleak. It was a lullaby that the mother sang to the child, but at the same time it told the farewell.

Tears welled up in Sabo's eyes whenever he recalled that rhythm.

"...Brother Sabo?"

"Can you sing, Mason?" whispered the Gray Rabbit.

"No...I'll avoid it. My bean paste throat and insufficiency------"

"Is that so?" Sabo said thoughtfully: "I thought...that magnetic voice of yours would be nice to sing."

Mason fell silent. Sabo's unintentional words seemed to touch the blond boy.

"...the oatmeal will be ready soon, just wait a minute." Mason turned the topic away with a pretence of calmness, and immediately turned away from Sabo's sight.

Did you say something wrong? The young rabbit man couldn't help but wonder.

At this time, he also heard the sound of a door being pushed open outside.

"I'm back." Daniel, a familiar guy, didn't know how to be polite, so he took Sabo's house as his own.

"Not dead yet?" Then, as Sabo expected, Daniel poked in from outside to check Sabo's condition.

"...Not dead." Gray Rabbit replied in a sullen voice: "Have you come back so soon? Didn't the Knights give you an important task?"

"It is true that I received an important task, but things will come later." Daniel said vaguely: "I may be very busy recently, probably... I can only spare half a day to come back. Not sure. I You are only here half a day every day, are you all right?"

"What a strange question. Mason is watching at home." Sabo snorted.

"Humph..." The silver knight boy lowered his voice: "Isn't that kid who worries me the most?"

Daniel seems to be guarding Mason until now, although Sabo doesn't think Daniel needs to guard the kid.

"By the way, did anything weird happen while I was away?" Daniel asked again.

"No...why ask that?"

Daniel looked at the faint tears in Sabo's eyes and didn't answer directly.

Even the Gray Rabbit felt embarrassed, so he wiped the corners of his wet eyes and said, "...If I wanted to say it, I had a strange dream."

"Oh?"

"I dreamed that I became a butterfly, flying in the sky." The young rabbit man said: "I always feel... the world in the eyes of the butterfly is more beautiful than the world we see. Whoosh...that's an interesting dream."

"Dream..." Daniel murmured thoughtfully, "Maybe it wasn't a dream."

"Just kidding?"

"It's not a joke." Daniel put on a serious face and said, "I forgot to tell you one thing. But it's fine for you to know it yourself, don't say it.

...remember? When they asked you to join the Knights, they were afraid of your abilities and implanted a chip in the back of your neck. The function of that chip is to suppress your ability as a rabbit, so that you cannot communicate with animals using your abilities. But when the doctor operated on you, he said that the chip would affect your recovery after surgery, so he removed the chip. "

Sabo frowned.

"The current you, it is reasonable to say that you can use the ability of being a rabbit to communicate with animals. But... the [rejection control agent] you eat may be affected by the use of The physique of the person is different, and various unknown side effects occur. If you think that you are not yourself, it is actually the drug that is at work. It will weaken the [absolute domain] of the creature and affect people's self-cognition ability. It relies on this principle , to prevent the newly transplanted organ from being rejected by your body."

"I don't understand. What does this have to do with that weird dream I had?"

"That may not have been a dream. You may have unconsciously activated the ability to [communicate with animals], establishing some kind of spiritual connection with the butterfly.

At the same time, the side effects of the drug affect your [self-perception ability], so you project your subjective consciousness onto the butterfly, thinking you are a butterfly. "Daniel analyzed: "All in all, the butterfly you dreamed of may actually exist. You accidentally saw the world with the eyes of a butterfly. ...probably so. "

"It's absurd," Sabo denied. He had never heard of Bunnymen having this ability. The ability of the rabbit people is not even [controlling animals], but [the ability to communicate with animals]. They can communicate and ask animals to help them with errands, but this is just a [request ~IndoMTL.com~] that is often not a mandatory [control]. This and [Controlling the Butterfly's Vision to See the World] are the two abilities that eight poles can't hit.

"Whether it's true or not," Daniel is obviously not interested in this matter, "It means that your ability is recovering, isn't it a good thing? You are lying in bed and can't move freely, maybe you can try to use this temporary gain special abilities to broaden your horizons and see the world from another perspective?

[The world through the eyes of animals]... If there is a way to see it, it must be interesting. "

Sabo did not answer. He was annoyed by Daniel's series of irresponsible speculations.

However...what if all this is true?

If he really had a way to see the world through the eyes of other creatures...?

Grey Rabbit has a bold idea, but he doesn't plan to implement it right away. At least wait until the dead of night to test it.

Sabo closed his eyes and began to meditate.
