Honkai: Man(Sludge) From Future

Chapter 42:  Sirin: Is It Finally My Turn?



Siegfried was a bit depressed.

He wasn't depressed because his daughter was linking up with someone else in the middle of the night, but because he was depressed about the meaning of his existence in this era.

Noldrei's answer about the future was unexpected.

The human ability to forget pain was related to the regeneration of brain neurons, but this era allowed the group of children who were most likely to forget pain to experience pain that they could never forget.

Adults weren't more sensitive to pain because they were older, had more experience, or had a deeper understanding.

It was because their own brain neurons couldn't regenerate, so their experience of pain was more difficult to forget.

Siegfried's perception of himself shattered.

His self-perceived maturity and growth seemed to have become a bit ridiculous.

"Sigh..."

Siegfried sighed and looked up at the sky. Snowflakes were falling from the sky.

He reached out and caught a snowflake in his hand. The coldness penetrated his palm. But Siegfried's heart was restless and hot, and he was holding back a feeling of frustration that he couldn't resolve.

He hesitated for a long time, and then he didn't hesitate to touch the 'small mechanism' behind his neck.

He turned himself into the little dragon called Spike, and then sat on the clothes that were scattered on the ground.

"Aww..."

"Huh? How can I speak now?"

"That's right, the fishing is over. There doesn't seem to be any point in continuing to control my inability to speak..."

Siegfried felt that he shouldn't continue to dwell on the issue of whether he could speak or write.

He didn't even know if he had been a good father to Kiana in the past.

"It's snowing. The snow in the Far East is never as cold as the snow in Siberia. Even the winter wind has a soft feeling."

Cocolia hadn't fallen asleep either. She didn't want to squeeze in with those two little girls to sleep. She also didn't want to argue with Raiden Mei. At this time, it was best to come to the living room to hide.

"Cocolia?"

Siegfried Spike, the little dragon, showed a hint of disgust on his face, and even moved his little body to the side.

"You can't hide even if you try. We've all been branded with this thing. There's no way to remove it from our bloodline." Cocolia sneered and sat in the yard with a coat on.

She continued to mock, "Can you remove the Kaslana blood from your body? You can't! But the monster sleeping with your daughter upstairs can."

Siegfried's face immediately turned red. This bastard woman actually dared to make such comments about his daughter?!

'Those two just went to link their brains!'

'Huh? It feels even stranger than sleeping together.'

Siegfried couldn't tell whether physical contact was more intimate or brain linking was more intimate. He just felt that something was a bit strange.

"Cocolia, what are you trying to plot by staying here?"

"Plot? What do I have to plot? It's more like my plot has been controlled by someone else. What do you think I'm plotting?"

Cocolia's words didn't dispel Siegfried's wariness. Instead, it made him even more wary of this woman.

Raiden Ryoma, Siegfried used to think of him as a friend.

But now...

A friend who used his daughter for experiments, it was better to think about it carefully.

"I'm saying, don't you want to bring Cecilia back to life? I mean, if he really is a future person, coming from the future to the present. Then theoretically, he should also be able to go from the present to our past, right?"

Cocolia had a slightly mysterious smile on her face. Her words made Siegfried's heart waver for a long time.

He was stunned for a moment before realizing what it meant to arrive from the future to the present.

"If you let your daughter get closer to him, then do you think... is it possible to do that?"

Cocolia was really daring. She didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said.

"Heh, you can't even confirm whether he's a future person. Yet you dare to try to bewitch me?"

Siegfried wasn't a fool. He had indeed had a moment of temptation, but he didn't believe Cocolia's nonsense.

But Siegfried was still a guy with a bottom line. He had never thought of using his daughter to achieve any purpose. Although K423 wasn't his biological daughter, his love for his daughter was the same.

Siegfried sneered, "You woman will fall on these shortcuts sooner or later."

'You're using this little dragon form to lecture me?'

The little bit of fear that Cocolia had originally had disappeared with Siegfried's current appearance.

"I do believe that he's a future person..."

She had to admit that the abilities on Noldrei were outrageous. How could a normal person control their own genes to adapt to Honkai energy?

He could even modify others to quickly complete similar functions.

If Honkai energy adaptability was so easy to achieve, wouldn't the sacrifices of Schicksal and Anti-Entropy become very laughable?

Only the fact that Noldrei was a future person could make Cocolia feel a little better. At least she had a little bit of participation in the abilities that Noldrei had shown, indicating that she had still done some 'preparations' for the future.

"Besides, what's the use of you not wanting, not liking, or not being willing? Do you have a way to change your daughter back to her original form? Heh..."

Cocolia sneered, dropped her words, and turned to leave, not giving Siegfried a chance to mock her back.

Everyone was a fallen person, so the second one shouldn't look down on the first one.

"You...!"

Siegfried Spike was so angry that his face turned red. He wanted to curse, but he couldn't find any strong words for a while.

Not to mention that his daughter was in the middle of a brain link. He didn't want to disturb her at this time.

.........

"This place is a bit strange... What's going on?"

Noldrei looked down at his consciousness body and found that he was still that white-haired young man.

Then he looked at Kiana next to him...

Was this still that white-haired dumpling girl?

Her consciousness body was like a chaotic and strange color, or like a ball of various colors of playdough twisted together and constantly rotating and changing.

On this ball of stuff were layers of fleshy buds and tentacles, as well as things that looked like fleshy caves. Inside the fleshy caves were even layers of sharp, inorganic objects like blades.

These inorganic objects were like teeth growing out of the fleshy caves. They stretched and changed unpredictably.

And this consciousness body was still making strange sounds, like wanting to fart or like the intestines of someone who was hungry.

The gurgling sounds echoed in Kiana's sea of consciousness.

"So hungry... so hungry..."

"I'm so hungry..."

Noldrei quickly understood what was going on.

'The sea of consciousness is the internalized world of a person's external senses. Is it because she wanted to change her external attributes, and then reversed it into her inner consciousness, causing her to fall into such an anxious and uneasy state?'

'The strength of her body has in turn enhanced the inner needs of her consciousness. This hunger...'

Noldrei reached out and touched the current 'Kiana consciousness body'. This huge fleshy consciousness body wriggled and seemed to be very affectionate towards him.

'It's not that she's lost her mind and forgotten the past, nor is it that she's lost the anchor point of her existence. It's simply because the hunger brought about by the expansion of consciousness has turned her into this?'

"Who are you? What's going on with her?!"

The voice was a bit arrogant, which surprised Noldrei a bit.

Sirin looked warily at the man who had appeared in this sea of consciousness.

Ever since Kiana's body had been modified, she had no way to use Kiana's body to observe the outside world.

And then the girl's consciousness body had turned into this form.

This made Sirin wonder if the 'god' outside had developed some new way to play.

Without even notifying her, the Second Herrscher?
