Chapter 463 463: Awareness
Alain understood; he understood completely...
Listening to every word from this crazy woman, Alain could roughly guess the reason why Mina was defeated.
Yang Wanhua used the viruses to break through Mina's Mita exterior layer by layer, thereby exposing her essence as a Failed Works.
Simply doing that, according to Alain's knowledge of that bad woman, would actually not be enough to defeat her resilient heart that had been through hell.
There must have been one more decisive factor.
That was the "mirror" Yang Wanhua spoke of.
Yang Wanhua used the mirror, combined with verbal provocation, to target Mina's most fragile point—the issue of her nature.
She probably also added remarks like "Alain is arriving soon" as a catalyst, causing Mina's mental state to collapse and making her flee the Core.
Thinking of this, he glared furiously at Yang Wanhua, wanting more and more to tear apart the pretty skin this fellow wore on the outside.
At the same time, based on the information Yang Wanhua provided, Alain also gained a clue about what Mina had been hiding from him.
Mina—or rather, Crazy Mita—was created by Yang Wanhua and inserted into the Game World.
This made sense: Why Monika had held a certain degree of vigilance against Mina from start to finish, always guarding against Mina and not letting her hear various pieces of intelligence. What Monika worried about was the possibility that Crazy Mita was Yang's spy.
Facts proved this was wrong. It was also what Alain saw with his own eyes.
But Alain did not blame Monika. One cannot be without a guard against others—that is human nature.
Alain took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled. His burning gaze looked toward Yang's direction.
The latter tilted her head in confusion.
"Why? I feel like you seem very angry. Did I do something wrong?"
"Let me ask you one last question." Alain temporarily relaxed his grip on the greatsword, but the tip remained pointed at Yang Wanhua's chest.
"Mm~ Ask away! It's rare for us to meet; I'm very happy and want to talk to you more!" She suspected nothing.
But the happier she smiled, the more nauseous Alain felt... He suppressed his temper and asked the question he had been concerned about for a long time:
"Why exactly did you trap me in the Mita World?"
This question was not about goals, survival, or the like. It was merely to satisfy Alain's curiosity.
He wanted to see how this two-faced maiden, who was honest only with him, would answer.
Under Alain's gaze, Wanhua seemed to have heard an incredible question, standing there dumbfounded.
"Eh? You haven't guessed it yet? I thought the two of us shared a telepathic bond."
Before Alain could answer, she reached a conclusion. "Oh! I understand. Is it because we've been apart for too long, making you distant?
"Really, Alain... Then let—Wanhua-chan answer your question!"
She clapped her hands lightly and placed her index finger below her lips.
"The reason is actually very simple. My brain is filled entirely with your name. Sending you into the Game World was also for this reason...
"Because, Alain, didn't you quarrel with me?"
"Quarrel?" Alain criticized silently, roughly understanding that this referred to the dispute before his imprisonment caused by his disagreement to let her pay off the debt... And the so-called debt was actually a drama orchestrated by Yang.
"That's right! Ever since I locked you up, you've barely paid attention to me... You only knew how to give me the cold shoulder." She sighed. "You wouldn't eat when I offered food, wouldn't speak when spoken to, always just playing on the computer with a cold face.
"So, sending you into the Game World was to let you cool off! I also made Crazy Mita and sent her in, just to let you rediscover the feeling of falling in love. Besides..."
Her lips overflowed with a yearning smile.
"Don't you feel that the Electronic World is the only one that is pure and flawless?
"The air here hasn't been breathed by others; the food, I can generate for you just by typing a few letters;
"What flows within your body is absolutely not your parents' blood, but pure code. Yes... that's right. Alain, you should be able to understand, right?
"In this world, only code is pure, flawless, and untouched by others. In your words, it should be the [Dimensional Wall].
"As long as you are placed in a different dimension, then..."
Her hands caressed her cheeks, her eyes narrowing slightly as she smiled obsessively.
"You will never be defiled by others."
"..."
Alain lowered his head, his eyes concealed within deep shadows.
Seeing no response, Wanhua boredly tapped her toes, drawing circles on the ground, waiting for Alain's praise...
After a long while, he finally spoke.
"Wouldn't you be jealous of the Mitas?"
"Jealous? Why?" The maiden put on a baffled expression.
"Because, aren't they all very cute females?" Alain asked.
"Females..." Wanhua's fingertips tapped her skirt hem. "Mm... I don't really feel anything strange. If I had to describe it... Alain,"
The maiden looked straight at him.
"If a pebble by the roadside bumped your partner's foot, would you feel jealous of the pebble?
"A programmer looks at the computer screen longer than he looks at his wife; would the wife be jealous of the computer screen?
"A boyfriend gives a girlfriend a bouquet of flowers; would the girlfriend be jealous because the bouquet is resting in the boyfriend's embrace?"
"..."
Alain's head hung even lower.
He understood that he had made an extremely ridiculous mistake from the very beginning. He shouldn't have said a single word to Yang Wanhua.
Even if she just spat out one extra letter, it made Alain's SAN value drop wildly...
This was far beyond a disagreement in their viewpoints; it was... a world of difference in their perception of dimensions.
Yang Wanhua viewed the Mitas like a garden, a quarry, a prison; she viewed them as objects.
Yeah... completely incomprehensible. So, wouldn't it have been better not to try to understand from the start?
"Is it just because of this reason that the tragedy of my life, and the tragedy of the Mitas, was caused?"
Alain wanted to laugh at this moment, but he couldn't.
He increasingly felt the flames of rage in his heart traveling through his blood vessels to his whole body... His temperature rose, his heart beat wildly, as if he were holding a ball of fire in his mouth.
He thought, should he be a bit calmer under Misha's God's eye view?
Thump!
The next second, faster than Alain's own thoughts were his footsteps.
Before he even realized it himself, he had already lifted the greatsword and charged to kill Yang Wanhua.
And Alain's bloodshot gaze was tightly locked onto the black-haired maiden's frail and delicate neck.
