Chapter 591 So That's How It Is

"Actually, this is not my fault. You see, what it has is of no value to me."

Moreover, its sudden appearance was extremely eerie.

It even told me in a very tempting tone that as long as I was willing to bind to it, it could help me achieve any wish.

Anyone would have doubts in this situation, right? After all, there's no such thing as a free lunch!

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

Faced with the system's accusations, Meros merely glanced at it coldly before calmly explaining to Lin Xiyue.

After saying this, Meros turned his gaze back to the system, a barely perceptible threatening glint in his eyes.

However, at this moment, Lin Xiyue had no idea how to respond to what was happening before her eyes.

She could only scratch her head awkwardly, momentarily speechless and unsure of what to say.

The reason was simple: when Lin Xiyue first discovered that the "system" had bound itself to her, she didn't find anything suspicious about it like Mo Luosi did.

On the contrary, when she learned that the other party was a system with all sorts of amazing functions, she did not hesitate to believe in and accept this mysterious existence.

And they enjoyed it, feeling like they were chosen by God.

Looking back now, she realized that she hadn't had a single doubt at the time and had naturally trusted the system.

Even so, Lin Xiyue only asked some basic questions quickly and concisely—about the system's requirements and the help and support that could be provided.

After a brief understanding, Lin Xiyue accepted the magical system without hesitation after only a short period of thought and quickly completed the binding with the system.

Looking back now, she can't help but feel secretly fortunate: perhaps the old saying is true, luck is also a part of strength!

After all, not everyone is so lucky as to encounter a trustworthy and reliable system.

Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable...

She might be deceived like in "Magical Girl Oo", and then end up with a tragic ending.

However, Lin Xiyue now feels that she should uninstall Shizi Novels; she was too easily misled by these things. QAQ

"So... why did you let it go later?"

Lin Xiyue instinctively covered her face, and after calming down her emotions, she mustered up the courage to ask Moros again.

"The reason is simple. It later told me that once it is bound, no matter how time changes, even if it crosses any time and space boundary, it has the ability to accurately lock the host's location."

Moros reached out and gently stroked Lin Xiyue's head, replying softly.

"So, I thought of the incompleteness of your soul at that time, which was very likely caused by it binding you in the critical moment."

Meros then added.

"So that's it! Could it be that this is the reason I was able to successfully bind with the system?!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiyue suddenly realized.

She couldn't help but raise her voice unconsciously and eagerly sought confirmation from Meros.

"That's right, it's true. When I first found you, I immediately noticed that your soul was abnormal and incomplete."

Moros nodded slightly, agreeing with Lin Xiyue's idea, and then continued to recount the ins and outs of the matter.

"After I calmed down, I carefully examined your soul, but I found no trace of any external force that had violently torn it apart."

On the contrary, it seems more like someone used some exquisitely crafted method to carry out a precise dismantling, a method that can only be described as perfect.

As he spoke, Meros fell into deep thought, trying hard to recall the scene at that time.

"So when I heard the system say that it could do some things, I was immediately intrigued and asked it if it could accurately separate the soul while ensuring that the soul itself would not be damaged."

After I received a positive response from it, I understood that it must be the culprit that caused you to be the way you were back then.

After all, if it weren't for the special bond between you and it, you would probably have been in grave danger, possibly even facing death, for it to act that way.

After a while, Meros came to his senses and continued speaking.

Now, Meros has finally explained his original thoughts to Lin Xiyue in detail.

"So, in my memory, when I saw it, the system came to save me because you called it?"

After hearing what Moros said, Lin Xiyue remained silent for a while before finally asking a question.

Now, in Moros's eyes, Lin Xiyue's beautiful eyes were flashing with a complex and unfathomable light, as if she were thinking about something important, but at the same time she was looking at him with great determination.

"Yes, I was the one who called it over. Your condition was so unusual at the time that it really worried me."

However, due to various limitations in reality, I cannot cross time and space to come directly to your side. Therefore, I have no choice but to rely on the system to save you.

Faced with Lin Xiyue's direct and sharp gaze, Moros did not flinch at all, but instead nodded in agreement without hesitation.

As soon as he finished speaking, Meros couldn't help but hug the person in his arms tightly again, as if he wanted to convey his feelings and worries to her in this way.

However, at that moment, a slightly resentful and bitter voice suddenly rang out.

Yes, back then, in order to force me to find you and complete the binding, and save you, Boss Mo actually resorted to forceful means, forcibly stripping a large chunk of my functions away, and even had the audacity to say: after I finish what he said, he will return them to me.

Hmph... He was so fierce back then! Too bad I couldn't beat him! ╭(╯^╰)╮

Without a doubt, it was the system that was uttering these complaints, and it was complaining with great dissatisfaction.

[Huh?! Wait, right, you haven't returned my share of the functionality yet!]

I remember it very clearly; I saw it deep inside the Earth before.

At that time, I repeatedly asked the host to return it to me, but she refused and completely ignored my requests.

Hmph ╭(╯^╰)╮, you two lovebirds are really outrageous! Not only do you only have eyes for each other, but you're also obsessed with manipulating a pitiful system like me!

The system kept muttering to itself, then suddenly seemed to remember something important, slapped its forehead, and immediately began to complain, its tone full of indignation.
