Monster Master: Evidence of the Way

Uesugi Ai and Dream Eater must have personally entered Iin's dream, which is a necessary condition for Dream Eater's ability to be activated.

Although dying in a dream does not lead to death in reality, it can cause the consciousness to dissipate and become a vegetable.

Of course, if that were the case, the Dream Eater would not be able to maintain its ability and Yiyin would be trapped in the dream forever.

Yiyin can do whatever she wants in her dream, except ending the dream.

Unless the Dream Eater takes the initiative to remove its ability, it will be a dead end.

Therefore, Iin had to bluff and pretend to be a villain to force Uesugi Ai to make a choice.

From the limited contact I'd had with her before, I'd seen Uesugi Ai as someone who looked fierce on the outside but was actually quite timid. In this dire situation in Uqbar, she put on a fierce facade, but in reality, she was a coward.

There's no other way. For most people on the Tern Continent, this is the only way to survive. This is probably why Uesugi Ai can establish a spiritual connection with monsters like the Dream Eater.

"Don't... kill... me... please..."

As it turned out, Yiyin guessed right.

Uesugi Ai did not have the courage and determination to die with Iin because she had to survive - there were things she had to do that only she could do.

"I ask, you answer."

Yiyin originally wanted to stop the ability of Dream Eater Luo immediately, but he still had to pretend to be cold in front of Uesugi Ai. Only in this way could he better put psychological pressure on Uesugi Ai.

"it is good……"

Uesugi Ai wanted to survive so badly, no matter how dirty she became.

"Why do you want to kill me?"

Iin must first confirm Uesugi Ai's motives. If she is also one of Ouroboros's people, there is no need to keep her alive.

Uesugi Ai had just survived the disaster when she heard such cruel news and her face turned pale with fright.

"Wuwuwu...do I really have to say it?"

"You have no right to ask questions." Yi Yin pretended to be cold and said, "Next time, I will make sure you are torn to pieces."

"I said!"

Uesugi Ai completely gave in, "I'm doing this all for Li Yi."

"Who?"

"Hiyama Rii, my...sister."

"I do not believe."

Yiyin continued to intimidate.

"I can prove it."

Uesugi Ai carefully took out a photo that had been treasured a hundred times.

The photo shows a red-haired girl with a lovely smile. She is facing the camera with a sweet smile.

Unfortunately, however, her lower body is completely paralyzed and she is completely confined to a wheelchair, which is a pity.

"As you can see, Li Yi can't walk, so I've been taking care of her. We need a lot of Lukes, so I have no choice but to..."

"So, this is why you approached me before?" Yiyin asked.

"Yes."

Uesugi Ai didn't dare to hide anything. "In Uqbar, what can a weak woman like me do? If I want to make money quickly, Luke, this is the only way."

It seems that every family has its own problems.

But this is not the reason why Uesugi Ai bullied and killed himself.

"Yes... a certain organization came to me. They said that if I was willing to capture you, they would use alchemy to heal Li Yi's legs and help her stand up again."

"You believe it?"

Uesugi Ai nodded.

"I, I can't do anything about it. Li Yi wants a normal life more than anyone else. As her older sister, I can't just sit there and watch her suffer and do nothing."

"What's the name of that organization?"

"let me see……"

Uesugi Ai pondered for a moment, then drew a simple shape with her finger.

A square circle connected end to end.

A snake that bites its tail in its mouth, its head is also its tail.

This was indeed Ouroboros's trick. Could it be that his plan had been exposed and they wanted to get rid of him first?

No matter what, this served as a wake-up call for Yiyin - since the Tail-Eating Snake Queen could no longer restrain her murderous intent, he could finally go ahead and kill with confidence.

"One more thing. The Dream Eater's Basket is actually Li Yi's monster. She loaned it to me temporarily. Since she stays at home all the time, the Dream Eater's Basket rarely goes out either. I don't have any monsters."

Yiyin knew that monsters could be loaned out to others with the owner's permission. Murat had once borrowed Saint Germain's monster, the Phantom Fox.

"I see, you're doing this all for your sister."

——If I were in your shoes, I would do the same, even though... no, now is not the time to think about this——I must get out of this dream quickly, otherwise I will really be trapped here and die.

"It's just Luke, no problem."

Yi Yin's expression finally softened a bit, "Introduce your sister to me, I might be able to cure her. Or I could lend a hand and help her find a better medical monster master."

"thanks, thanks……"

Uesugi Ai choked up. She thought the world was full of evil and falsehood, but she never imagined that there was true love on Blue Star.

I believe Li Yi will be very happy after knowing this.

So, I must not fall here. It's a deal...

The Dream-Eating Ghost Luo's emotions relaxed a little, and Yi Yin could feel that he was about to wake up from this dream.

Finally, Uesugi Ai opened her mouth to say something to him, but Iin could only see her lip shapes and could not hear her words at all.

.

Adventurers Guild.

After experiencing an extremely long dream, Yiyin found himself back in the Adventurer's Guild.

As for Azure Dragon and Vermillion Bird, they were nowhere to be seen. It seemed they had never been here in the first place.

"So, I was ambushed right after arriving in Uqbar. This was really dangerous."

Yi Yin muttered, "I used the Flash spell to come directly to Uqbar, so no one should have been able to get the news in advance. So Ouroboros might have planned to capture me before then."

Just as Yi Yin was reviewing the situation, he suddenly sensed a strange connection.

"(Iin, can you hear me? Are you in the Adventurer's Guild now?)"

"Xuanwu-senpai, is your mind connection working again? ...No, have you been 'resurrected'?"

"(It's a long story. Right now, White Tiger and I are stuck in a space between the City of the Dead and reality. Time and space here are infinite, and we don't know how long it will take for us to be reborn. Fortunately, the monster skills can still be used normally, and the King of Beasts has also been upgraded to A-level during this time.)"

"I've already made arrangements with Azure Dragon and Suzaku, and they'll be coming to Uqbar to support you soon. I've read your fortune, and it seems your luck isn't looking good lately. Please be careful."

"..."

Why does this scene look so familiar?

Yiyin even wondered if he was still in a dream.

Then again, he had been led by Uesugi Ai into believing that Dream Eater was a B-rank monster. Perhaps that wasn't the case...?

In order to verify his guess, Yiyin decided to make a bold decision.

"Senior Xuanwu, I like you."
