Illimitable Until Death

Chapter 528: Small And Weak

“You…”

As Fang Li watched a large amount of black mist emanating from Rem’s body, his brows slowly furrowed.

Now, Fang Li understood why he suddenly came here and witnessed Rem’s childhood memories.

(If I’m not mistaken, this should be deep within Rem’s soul.)

Seeing Rem, even in this place, entangled with curses, it was likely that the numerous curses had penetrated deep into her soul, causing her to weaken not only physically but also spiritually.

In such a situation, coupled with Fang Li gradually getting used to entering his own soul space as Ryougi Shiki described, when using the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception to search for the Curse Technique on Rem’s body, he was inadvertently drawn into the curse deep within her soul, witnessing this memory.

After all, this memory was filled with too much death.

There was the death of Rem’s former tribe members.

There was the death of the Witch Cult sect members.

There was death all around.

And there was the gradual death of Rem’s own soul.

Thus, when Fang Li used the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception to search for the Curse Technique deep within the soul, he was also pulled into it, witnessing this memory.

Perhaps, it was because of the curse causing her soul to weaken that Rem, in a state of unstable mind/energy, found this deep-seated memory and immersed herself in past sorrows, only to be taken advantage of by the curse, delving even deeper.

Simply…

“It’s simply foolish.”

Fang Li’s ice-blue Mystic Eyes suddenly manifested as a sharp dagger fell into his palm.

“Qiāng————!”

Amidst the pleasant hum of the sword, the waning moon dagger turned into a flash as it descended.

“Pū Chī————!”

Amidst the sound of tearing fabric, the black mist entwined around Rem’s body was severed in two by a single stroke, dispersing completely.

“Eh?” Rem was suddenly stunned.

It wasn’t until this moment that Rem seemed to regain consciousness and understand what had happened.

“I…” Rem, rarely at a loss, faltered.

However, Fang Li’s actions left Rem even more bewildered.

“Being immersed in such memories, is this all you have amounted to?”

Fang Li stared with his ice-blue Mystic Eyes, looking at the village covered by the sea of fire, ignoring the ongoing battle between the Oni and the sect members, and even disregarding the bewildered young Rem sitting on the ground and the young Ram lying on the ground with a face full of blood.

With a dagger in hand, he swung it out.

“Pū Chī————!”

Suddenly, the entire world was split in two by a single stroke.

Under Fang Li’s slash.

The gruesome battlefield in front of him was directly split open along with the world, as if being simultaneously cleaved in half, torn apart.

“Pēng————!”

In the next moment, under the sound of glass shattering, this side of the world turned into fragments.

In its place was a pure white space.

Here was Rem’s soul.

And Fang Li and Rem, naturally, were transferred here together, not being drawn into the shattered world.

“You…” Rem couldn’t help but exclaim, “What have you done?”

Fang Li didn’t answer; he only uttered a line.

“Come here.”

With that, Fang Li grabbed the bewildered Rem’s hand and walked forward.

During this process, scenes began to flash in the pure white space.

There, were all the traces of Rem’s life.

Among them are scenes of Rem playing in the flower fields with Ram.

Among them are scenes of Rem and Ram sleeping soundly together under the covers.

Among them are scenes of Rem and Ram picking vegetables together in the forest.

Among them are scenes of Rem and Ram chopping wood together outside the house.

These were all memories of Rem’s childhood with Ram before the Oni village was slaughtered by the Witch Cult sect.

Rem couldn’t help but gaze at these memories, nostalgia evident in her eyes.

“See that?” Fang Li said in a dominant tone as he pulled Rem’s hand forward.

“If you’re so fond of reminiscing about the past, the things you should remember are here, not just those moments from before.”

Saying this, Fang Li forcefully pulled Rem again, turning to another direction.

There, were also scenes unfolding one after another.

However, these were memories that emerged after the massacre of the Oni village.

After Ram’s horn was severed and the Oni were slaughtered, Roswaal appeared before Rem and Ram, picking up the weakened Rem and the hornless Ram.

After that, Rem and Ram became maids at Roswaal’s mansion, responsible for all the chores inside.

So there are scenes of Rem and Ram cooking together.

So there are scenes of Rem and Ram cleaning together.

So there are scenes of Rem and Ram bathing together.

So there are scenes of Rem and Ram working together.

Scene after scene, all perfectly displayed, imprinted on Rem’s eyes.

“Look here.” Fang Li pointed to those images and said to Rem, “If you don’t like reminiscing about the past in the village, you can also remember the memories in the mansion.”

Only then did Fang Li turn around and look at Rem, interrogating her.

“With so many beautiful memories, why do you insist on clinging to those trivial scenes from who knows where? Are you dumb?”

Hearing this, Rem couldn’t help but feel enraged.

“What do you know about Rem?” Rem exclaimed, “Rem is just a substitute for Elder Sister. Without Rem, Elder Sister could have two horns, and if Elder Sister, with just one horn, is so strong, imagine how strong she would be with two!”

“It’s all because of Rem’s existence that Elder Sister ended up with only one horn, and it’s because of Rem that Elder Sister lost even that one horn, leaving behind only weak Rem. What’s the point of my existance?”

As Rem became more and more agitated while speaking, Fang Li silenced her with a single sentence.

“You’re too self-righteous.”

“————!”

As Rem glared at him in anger, Fang Li calmly spoke again.

“After your horn was severed, have you ever sincerely talked to Ram?”

It was only one sentence but this one sentence caused Rem to pause.

“It seems you haven’t at all,” Fang Li glanced at Rem and continued, “The one with the severed horn is Ram, not you.”

“The one suffering the most is also Ram, not you.”

“And yet, for all these years, you, the main culprit, haven’t once talked to your own Elder Sister but have immersed yourself in your guilt. Isn’t that self-righteousness? So, if you want to express your inferiority, at least apologize to Ram first.”

“Otherwise, you’ll forever be that weak ghost.”

Each word pierced Rem’s heart, rendering her completely silent.
