Chapter One Six Three: Unmodified Shame
The trees in the background seem to have never changed. Generally speaking, they are all clear and green. This should be the place where Lian grew up...
"Should I say he is lucky or unlucky..." Merlin seemed to be talking to himself, and of course Marquez heard it clearly, "It seems that he is not accepted by his own people."
Neem's memory continues to move forward, and Merlin slowly follows the growth of this little bear.
The little bear orc in the scene is now much older than before. According to this age, it should be the time to play with other orcs of the same age. As an outlier among the young bear orcs, it is natural for me to be isolated.
It wasn't just isolation, it was ridicule. Every time I wanted to get close to other peers, all kinds of curses followed, and the vicious words were occasionally mixed with sharp stones and mud on the ground.
As a young boy, he didn't know why he was treated like this, and he felt very aggrieved.
"Woo... Wu Wu..." The little bear orc was holding a stream of warm tears, his body was dirty, and he ran into the door of his wooden house as if he had abandoned his armor.
When her mother saw her son in this state, she was horrified and picked up the towel at hand, moistened it, and ran to wipe his body in three steps at a time.
"What's wrong with you? You're still injured!" Mother Bear wiped the tears from the corners of the little bear's eyes, but the tears fell down like a kite with a broken string.
He was so aggrieved and kept sobbing: "I...I wanted to play with them, but they scolded me! They even threw things at me! Oooh...it hurts...
.I was scratched by the stones they threw, and I came back."
Mother Bear pursed her lips, took a deep breath, and seemed to have made a decision: "Do you still want to play with them?"
He shook his head.
"Then just find someone who wants to play with you! But if there is really no other way, then this is the only way. I have to protect you from harm."
"I don't want to play with them! Even the little flowers on the roadside can chat with me!" He opened his eyes wide and scratched his belly. His mother's caressing could indeed relieve his sadness.
"Really?" Mother Bear was stunned for a moment, "Can you talk to flowers and plants?"
He nodded and said disapprovingly: "Of course! Can't you do it?"
Mother Bear blinked, speaking quickly in her mind, and said happily: "Of course not, my baby! This is your unique ability! In the future, you will not only have powerful power, but you may also be able to make plants obey you.
Order!"
"Well! I must let those guys know that I will become stronger!"
Everything before Merlin's eyes flew away like ashes again, and the memory of the next scene quickly took over.
"It's like watching a story," Marquez said to Merlin.
"The memory of every living thing is a story." Merlin's tone seemed to be very disapproving.
Neem has grown up again, and is smaller than his current size. The magic pattern on his belly seems to be alive, and it gradually extends on the body as the little bear grows up.
He squatted on the ground, his eyes were shining with a strange look, his mouth was slightly pouting, he was holding his breath and concentrating, his hands were stretched forward, and he was staring hard at the small open space in front of him.
"Hmm..." To be honest, in Merlin's opinion, this posture looked like defecating on the spot.
"Grow up quickly..." There was a faint crackling sound in his throat, the magic lines on his belly flickered, and his eyes turned from slow to fast.
These magic patterns are actually not much different from those on human engravings! Even when using them, the bear orcs don't need to chant magic chants. They can transport their magic power outside the body just by relying on their own thoughts!
Gululu... the sound of collision of stone chips could be faintly heard from the ground.
Something is jumping up!
Bang! Sand and gravel splashed! A hard thorn as thick as a forearm suddenly appeared in the open space in front of me. In just one or two breaths, this piece of wood had already exceeded the height of the little bear, and it was still rushing upward!
"Wow..." After exhausting all her strength, her legs went weak and she fell flat on her butt.
But the little bear immediately patted his butt excitedly, stood up, looked at the "masterpiece" created by his own strength in surprise, and opened his mouth wide.
"This is great!" he shouted happily, shaking the wooden bars he created out of thin air.
The bear orc's strength was unable to shake even one bit of this wooden stick!
This is so surprising!
Unexpectedly, a loud shout came from behind me: "Look! This freak doesn't know what magic he used to create such a thing!"
Merlin watched helplessly as Neem turned around in astonishment and leaned against the branch that came out of the ground behind him in panic. He had no strength now.
As a result, Neem was picked up by other bear children with malicious intentions, and was tied up in front of an adult bear orc in a menacing manner.
"Dad, this freak just made a very long stick out of the ground!"
The bear-orc's expression was as if there was a puddle of feces stuffed under his nose, and he waved his hand: "Don't let him come over, what if something happens to him? I've said it many times, don't play with this kind of freak.
!What if I get tied up by him one day!"
"I told you, don't touch him! If one day... throw him away quickly! How many times have I told you, don't touch him!"
He had no way to wipe his tears, so he had to lower his head, trying to hide his ugly appearance. His hands were held up, and the ability just now drained his strength, and now he couldn't do anything.
He seems to be born to be bullied. But I try my best to control my emotions in time every time before entering my home, and wipe off the stains and tears on my body. This kind of life is very tiring.
Merlin thought about his life with Sheldon. Comparatively speaking, he was actually very happy.
Of course, his mother has never treated him badly. He is lucky to have such a mother.
"Uh...uh!" Merlin suddenly covered his head, the expression on his face twitching crazily!
The fragile script was suddenly torn apart, and the voice belonging to me echoed in the space like a mountain!
"Don't peek into my memory!!!! No, get out of my way! Don't peek into my memory!"
"Marquez, get out of there quickly! Hurry up!"
"I know!" Merlin's body quickly became blurred in the space and was about to disappear.
"No! Want! Again! Look! No!" The voice was so loud that it even shook my own memories.
"Hurry up, it's so noisy..."
Neem's voice was full of pain: "Don't...don't peek...my memory...wuwu..."
Before Merlin left, he saw another scene.
Neem and his mother were walking hard through the woods, and behind them was a familiar village of bear orcs.
"Maybe humans can..."
Melin's mother seemed to be saying something, but Merlin could no longer hear the next words clearly.
The little boy opened his eyes wide and realized that he was holding something hard in his hand.
It was a shining blue-purple crystal bar with warm magic light spots flowing on its surface.
Merlin breathed a sigh of relief, this must be the mark inside the body... But he did not realize at all that the bear orc in front of him was staring at him with shame and anger, his cheeks were red, and he looked like he wanted to kill someone.
The little boy felt a little guilty and quickly handed the crystal in his hand to the surprised Sheldon. Before he could escape from the scene, a bear claw grabbed his shoulder.
I saw a pack of tears in the corners of his eyes, his lips were trembling, and the triangular mark on his belly was ready to move.
"My memory... is so shameful." He whispered bitterly, "Why do you want to see my memory! Ugh... you hateful humans...
He said he was trying to help me get rid of the curse on my body, but my mother and I..."
"Mei, you are not allowed to yell at the person who helped you remove the mark!" Nei's mother kept wiping her tears. She was so overjoyed that she could not hear her words clearly. "Why don't you thank him quickly!"
Finally, the mother and son thanked them deeply and left through the small door of the Orc Management Department.
Merlin was still recalling the hateful look in the bear-orc's eyes when he knew he was peeping into his memory, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly with guilt. But when he thought about the content of the memories, he couldn't laugh.
"This is the blessing of his birth, and this is also his curse. Marquez, we and he are actually the same."
"You know, his future partner is not decided by himself, but is controlled by tangible destiny for him. Once he sees someone who can fill the hole in his soul, he will immediately rush to the other person's side and form a one-way relationship with him.
The contract means that he cannot leave him for the rest of his life, and the other party will definitely have a good impression of him. You may ask, what will happen to him if the other party abandons him forcefully, right? "
Merlin nodded.
"He will die." Nightmare said coldly, "The power of fate in him will tear him apart. Do you still remember the metaphor I said before?"
"Well, I remember. If an inflated balloon had a hole..."
