Heroic Death System (BL)

ARC 7 RE : I AM NOT A MERMAN

“But my dream is very nice.” Shang Ke scotted in front of his face as he spoke enticingly, “Do you really not want to know? Maybe my dream will make your dream nice too.”

Qin Yuan wavered and finally spoke, “I… I dreamed of myself placing you in a coffin and submerging you in the sea. But then you revived one day and was sealed in the coffin. You would suffer every day again and again until your life was thoroughly exhausted. I personally ended your chance of returning to life. While you were in helpless despair, I was wallowing in my own grief.”

Shang Ke was speechless. So what had been tormenting this whole time was his own imagination. At least this allowed Shang Ke to confirm one thing, that Qin Yuan had also been through this life once and was given another chance. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have that kind of horror imagination towards his revival, to believe that he had personally trapped him to death in a coffin.

“I’m sorry, Flames.” Qin Yuan spoke the words of guilt within his heart while saying it awake for the first time.

“Why do you need to apologize to me?” Shang Ke held his hand and chuckled, “In fact, I had a similar dream, but the middle events were a bit different.”

Qin Yuan raised his head to look at him.

“I dreamed that after I died, I was buried in the sea. I watched you suffer from insomnia everyday and remaining single for life. As such, I pleaded to the Sea God, that time could go back and I could return to you again.” Shang Ke calmly continued, “The Sea God responded to my wish and gave me another life within that coffin. After that, you found me and we lived happily ever after.”

“It sounds a bit like a fairy tale.” Although he said that, Qin Yuan’s dark eyes started returning its luster. Because hearing Shang Ke mention time flowing backwards confirmed his situation.

“Who cares if it’s a fairy tale or not, what’s important is that we’re together again.” Shang Ke hugged him and snickered, “Qin Yuan, be happier. Like me, I am smiling everyday. Isn’t that nice?”

Qin Yuan: You were born with it…

“Flames, if I never discovered your revival…:”

“That’s impossible, as long as I was alive I would think of ways to find you. Don’t forget, there are plenty of animals in the sea that I could pass information to. Finding myself a turtle or even a whale is nothing hard, plus there’s even Waves. If you never received any news from me, then I had left the world entirely.”

Qin Yuan was first dumbstrucked, then he immediately relaxed like some burden had been lifted from him. He felt light for the first time in a long time. That’s true, Flames could communicate with other animals. As long as he was alive, it was impossible to not hear anything from him.

   
“Haha.” Qin Yuan covered his face in one hand, laughing at his own stupidity. His brain had been completely taken over by fear.

Qin Yuan landed countless kisses on Flames’ forehead, “Flames, I love you!”

“Such a coincidence, I love you too.”

Now that his trauma was taken care of, Qin Yuan’s mental health immediately leaped forward. It clearly showed in the way he gained over a dozen pounds, his muscles becoming well-built and his endurance multiplying by several folds. He was bursting with life everyday and full of mettle. His entire being shown with blinding light.

A year later, the home that belonged to Qin Yuan and Shang Ke was finally done with its construction.

Although there weren’t any rare mineral resources on the island, it had fertile soul and favorable climate throughout the year. It was suitable for planting particular crops and fruits, and was completely self-sufficient.
