Chapter 165
165 3.18.70 – Kuro – Downfall of Humanity
Lying inside his room, Ziek bit his inner cheeks, “Fuck.”
“...” A woman in a casual shirt and pants continued to heal her leader in silence. Ziek had been spewing out profanities at his phone for half an hour. Attending to his injuries, it had to be that handsome general Yi Zen’s doing. Why would her leader let himself be treated as such, without fighting back? She didn’t dare ask, or she’ll be the one treated as his phone. After healing her leader, she left immediately.
Ziek: Is Bing Shi your first host?
Kuro: Classified information.
Another classified information. The feeling of helplessness was eating Ren Han’s guts from the inside. What was that warning? Was Bing Shi trolling him? But she clearly stated that he was not a part of her missions.
Did it mean that one wrong move and he’ll never meet Bing Shi again? Ziek thought that maybe after Bing Shi will leave this world, he’ll somehow follow her like in those reference novels.
There was this bridge called ‘Xuan Mu’ between them, but both of them refuse to cross it.
While Bing Shi didn’t want to move on from her ex-boyfriend, Ziek didn’t want to acknowledge himself as Xuan Mu.
And how did Ziek know that Xuan Mu was his past life? Xuan Mu’s memories varied from Ziek’s, which felt forced. Xuan Mu’s memories made him feel complete. His soul accepted them as if they were his from the beginning. Whatever his past life did, during meetings, working, eating... Ziek could feel this constant sense of happiness and warmth fighting against his other burling emotions. It didn’t take him long to guess that it was due to Bing Shi.
.....
So what’s the problem? His past life didn’t want to share Bing Shi with him! As if Ziek was not worthy of having even a glimpse of her! It’s like deep inside his soul; there was an overly possessive man, who didn’t want to share his treasure. It’s driving Ziek crazy because he would do the same! There was no way he’d share his current memories of Bing Shi with his shitty past lives!
Having a glimpse of a suffering Bing Shi almost ripped his heart in half. Ziek had a strong urge to take her place and suffer in her stead. Those feelings, he could differentiate. They were not his. He didn’t love Bing Shi to such an extreme degree. He was not jealous when she spoke to other men, not even her Kuro. Ziek was confident that Bing Shi would never look at another man. She didn’t even care when her ex-boyfriend’s soul was being thrashed around like a sack of potatoes!
Ziek chuckled. Her loyalty was extreme, and he loved it. What should he do from now on? The best action to take was not to trigger her bitter past and continue with his life like previously. If his past life gave up on Bing Shi, he would gladly take her for himself.
Ziek: Try to cheer her up.
Kuro: How?
Ziek: Let’s bake some sweet potatoes for her.
Kuro:??
Ziek: Tomorrow at 9 AM in front of her tent?
Kuro:??
Ziek laughed at Kuro’s ‘Yes/OK’. If Bing Shi knew what he was teaching her innocent Kuro, she would wreck him up.
Closing his eyes, he attempted to steal a few memories of Bing Shi. But all he got was his sexy secretary, Mia, “...” They were on a boring business trip on the other side of the globe. Then, an unexpected thing happened. Inside a hotel room, his past life called Bing Shi.
° Xuan Mu smiled when his phone call was picked up, “Asleep?”
° “...Maybe? I dunno. My eyes are sleeping...” Bing Shi answered with closed eyes, “But my mouth is not. It’s busy sending flying kisses across the world.”?
And damn, both Xuan Mu and Ziek got an erection from her voice alone. The desire to touch this girl was unbearable. Both of them unzipped their pants, their emotions merged.
° Xuan Mu chuckled, his body relaxed, “How many did you send?
° “One thousand.”
° ...pfft...
The smile on Ziek and Xuan Mu never disappeared.
° “I received them all. Doesn’t your mouth hurt?”
° “It’s perfectly fine. Lots of training on your MuMu did its wonders,” Bing Shi giggled.
° “...” Xuan Mu choked out. This girl. He wanted to squish her in his arms and never let go, “MuMu, and I want to see you.”
° “Oh. Do you miss me that much?” she asked.
° “I miss you so much that it hurts.”
Ziek and Xuan Mu stared intently at the phone screen. Before Ziek could get a glimpse of Bing Shi, the scene switched to the one, where Xuan Mu walked towards the trashbin to throw away a stack of paper tissues stained with his cum, while continuing talking with the girl on the phone.
|Fuck you! You dipshit! You %#$#&#%@&&!!...|

|Sleeping. Do not disturb.|
After Kuro put the sign before Bing Shi’s tent, it passed through the barrier as if the barrier didn’t exist in the first place. Kuro slithered towards the mouse toy on its little baby blue pillow bed. According to Bing Shi’s teaching how to kill mice, Kuro started to choke the mouse toy while waiting for its host next orders.
Kuro wasn’t always like this. Watching its host after host repeatedly failing their missions despite Kuro’s warning, Kuro started to give up on them. It refused to help them. After many traumatic events, where Kuro was forced to do bad things, the HQ removed a few functions from Kuro. An ability to feel emotions and the ability to distinguish right from wrong.
[“Kuro, come to me. Let’s sleep together.”]
Slithering up onto Bing Shi’s bed, Kuro let itself be engulfed in a big hug.
When a big middle finger appeared in Bing Shi’s mind, she couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
[“Did Ziek teach you that? Do you talk with each other a lot?”]
[??]
[“If he needs something, try to help him as much as possible.”]
[??]
[“Bwahaha, Kuro, stop that!”]
[Why? It’s making you laugh.??]
[“After a few more tries, it’ll stop making me laugh.”]
[??]
Bing Shi bursted out in laughter.

Ziek was picking up sweet potatoes when he got a message from Kuro.
Kuro: I made her laugh.
Ziek opened his eyes wide in surprise.
Ziek: How?
Kuro: With this: ?? She is hugging me right now.
Ziek had no idea that Kuro would use it on Bing Shi.
Ziek: If I do the same. Will she hug me too?
Kuro: LOL??
Ziek choked.
When Kuro saw the laughing Ziek through the camera, it felt like it discovered a new finding. Ziek and Bing Shi became a bad influence on Kuro.
