Chapter 409: A Girl Broken Like Porcelain

The elf girl was so fast that she disappeared in the blink of an eye.

But Ye Yan still chased after her until the girl turned around and looked at Ye Yan with surprise and curiosity.

"Who are you?"

She looked at Ye Yan and asked softly.

Ye Yan's breathing paused for a moment, and a surge of excitement surged in his heart.

He looked at the girl, feeling the familiar feeling coming from her, looking at that familiar and tender face, a different emotion surged in his heart.

"you do not know me?"

Ye Yan's voice was hoarse and low, and he stared blankly at the elf girl in front of him.

"me"

The elf girl tilted her head, looking confused:

"I, I seem to know"

"very familiar……"

"me……"

The elf girl held her head with both hands, in great pain.

Her body was shaking wildly, as if it would collapse at any moment.

Seeing her in such pain, Ye Yan's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Seeing this, Ye Yan did not hesitate, took a step forward, and walked towards the girl firmly.

However, just as he was about to touch the girl, a powerful force emerged and pushed him away.

Ye Yan did not give up. He tried again, but still failed. He ended up in failure every time.

"Gluttony, swallow it!"

Ye Yan growled, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes.

【Okay, Master】

The voice of the King of Gluttony sounded in his mind, and the next moment, a ball of red mist surged out of Ye Yan's body and enveloped him.

The red fog was filled with terrifying power, as if it could devour everything.

That powerful force was wrapped in the red mist. It kept struggling and twisting, but it could not break free from the red mist.

Gradually, the power became weaker and weaker, until it finally disappeared completely.

The red mist dissipated, revealing the elf girl's delicate face and a pair of beautiful sapphire eyes.

Sapphire eyes.

However, just when Ye Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

Click!

A crack suddenly appeared on the girl's face.

The crack started from the girl's forehead and quickly spread downwards.

Her face was covered with dense cracks, as if it would collapse at any time.

Ye Yan panicked. He quickly stepped forward and tried to hug the girl.

But as he got closer, the cracks became more and more numerous and larger.

Click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click.

A series of crisp cracking sounds suddenly rang out in the silent air, like the sudden cracking of ice in winter.

The crack on the girl's face, like an ancient porcelain eroded by time, spread little by little with irreparable sadness.

There was endless astonishment and confusion in her eyes, as if she was experiencing an unspeakable nightmare.

Ye Yan's footsteps came to an abrupt stop.

He looked at the girl in front of him, his blood-red gemstone pupils trembling slightly.

That once familiar and friendly face now looked as fragile as a porcelain doll about to break.

The cracks spread from the corners of her eyes to her neck, each one was deep or shallow, like scars engraved in her heart.

The girl's skin began to peel off, one piece after another like yellow leaves falling in autumn, bringing desolation and sadness.

Piles of fine powder fell out from the peeling skin.

They float in the air like snowflakes all over the sky, carrying an indescribable sadness.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Ye Yan's heart sank.

"What's this?"

"Word?"

A faint whimper came from the girl's throat, as if responding to Ye Yan's call.

She tried hard to raise her sapphire eyes that had become dull and looked at Ye Yan in front of her, with a bitter smile on her lips.

"Very good……"

She spoke softly, her voice filled with endless sorrow and longing.

Ye Yan's heart suddenly sank. He couldn't understand the girl's mood at the moment and could only watch her disappear little by little in front of his eyes.

"Sorry……"

The girl said this with her last bit of strength, a look of deep apology on her face whose beauty could not be concealed even by cracks.

She seemed to be apologizing for not being able to continue to accompany Ye Yan, and seemed to be lamenting for all the helplessness in this world.

After saying this, the girl's body suddenly exploded into flying ceramic pieces.

The ceramic pieces drew sad arcs in the air and then drifted away with the wind.

After everything returned to calm, it was as if nothing had happened.

Ye Yan was left standing there blankly, letting the breeze blow through his snow-white hair, blowing away the smell of blood and the dust from ceramic fragments in the air.

"Gluttony..."

Ye Yan lowered his head, and no one saw the expression on his face at this moment.

"Do you know what that is?"

His voice was full of confusion and helplessness, as if he was a child lost in the vast ocean.

[I don’t know, it’s very strange]

[However, I sensed a sense of jealousy in that.]

"That woman?"

Ye Yan recalled the scene on the photo stone where the woman was about to attack his mother first, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

[Strange, what is going on? ]

[Damn it, if only I could remember the memories before consciousness was born]

Gluttony's tone was filled with regret.

In fact, most of Gluttony's memories came from Ye Yan, and a small part came from the previous owner of Gluttony before his death.

That is the previous gluttonous monarch.

An existence that almost caused the fall of the entire continent.

So, Gluttony doesn’t know much.

Among them, he didn't know much about the power of jealousy. The only thing he had used was to copy the small piece of the Philosopher's Stone.

That's right, copying.

But, Gluttony feels that the power of jealousy is not this, or rather, it is not that simple.

Just like his gluttony, he devours everything while feeding himself.

Likewise, lust holds the secrets of life and death.

Arrogance is omniscience.

None of the seven primal desires is simple.

"Ran?"

Melsana's voice suddenly sounded, breaking Ye Yan's meditation.

She caught up, scanning the surroundings with sharp eyes, but saw no sign of the white-haired elf girl.

Finally, her gaze fell on Ye Yan, with a bit of confusion and scrutiny.

"Where did you go?"

Melsana looked at the boy in front of her, his long silver hair fluttering in the wind, hiding his face, leaving only a pair of deep crimson eyes.

Ye Yan shook his head gently, his voice low and hoarse:

"I don't know."

Melsana frowned, feeling somewhat dissatisfied with Ye Yan's reaction.

"boom!"

She was about to continue asking questions when she suddenly heard a deafening sniper rifle shot from a distance. (End of this chapter)
