I’m Trapped in a Cube - Chapter 191
The two little sprites returned to their previous state of facing each other.
However, at this time, the purple one was holding its arms up in the air, forming the shape of an olive.
The golden one stared wide-eyed at that gesture, with light flowing in its eye sockets, like a statue frozen in place.
At this moment, the golden little sprite suddenly lost its previous restless appearance and became very quiet, its expression thoughtful.
The purple little sprite, seeing the other’s reaction, understood that its gesture had taken effect and quickly held its hand in front of the golden little sprite, looking at it expectantly.
“Is it making a wish?”
Such a powerful creature also had things it couldn’t obtain?
Mo Ling was very puzzled about what the Purple Gauze Creature wanted to obtain. Could only this golden light fulfill its wish?
Just as he was thinking, the golden little sprite before him reacted.
Its expression began changing between dazed and serious, as if that gesture had triggered some mechanism within it, with two personalities conflicting inside its body.
One personality seemed unwilling to pay attention to this gesture, wanting to continue flying around and playing. The other personality was controlling it to stay and face everything before it.
Under such conflict, the golden little sprite’s body began trembling, and in the constant trembling, the golden light on its body grew increasingly intense.
A dazzling golden light suddenly burst forth, shooting into the water flow beside it. Blurry golden virtual images began appearing on the water flow covered by that light.
The scene was very simple.
Just like the wish virtual images seen before, the Purple Gauze Creature’s wish was projected onto that golden water flow.
Only one human girl.
A girl whose figure couldn’t be seen clearly, constantly walking.
She was walking in an endless purple void.
There was no sky, no ground, nothing at all. The girl just walked slowly in the void.
The scene was very strange. There was no road here, nor anything that could provide friction, but she kept walking, as if this was her only action.
When she came to her senses, she was already standing in a forest full of purple trees.
Like a purple filter covered everything around, but the girl didn’t seem to find it strange and continued walking in the forest.
She looked toward a direction in the purple void, then reached out to grab it, as if grasping a rope, and was instantly pulled away.
She flashed and moved through the purple void, pulled by ropes to an exit radiating blinding purple light.
Though her behavior was very strange, she just returned to a nearby monitoring station in this straightforward manner, with a nameplate whose pattern couldn’t be seen clearly appearing on her body out of nowhere.
That was a Hunter’s nameplate.
She began taking missions, joining other Hunter teams. In this process, the girl was never suspected by other humans, and she gradually became more and more like a normal person.
The girl began learning to speak, learning to converse normally with others, and her behavior also became normal.
The scene shifted, and she was already climbing Inverted Mountain alone…
Just then, this strange scene came to an abrupt end.
“After watching this scene, Mo Ling’s heart was filled with doubts. What did this mean?”
“Why was the Purple Gauze Creature’s wish for a person?”
“And why was that scene so blurry and unclear? Could it be that the golden little sprite’s wish-granting ability was still unfamiliar?”
Though the scene was very blurry, both little sprites couldn’t help but look toward that reflected vision.
The strangest thing was that the scene in the golden water flow kept spinning and rolling, like a wildly flying camera constantly following this girl.
However, it seemed that because of the golden little sprite’s condition, this wish scene was particularly blurry and intermittent, with the perspective often shifting elsewhere, very bizarre.
Such scenes continued for a long time before the girl finally made a different movement.
Thinking of this, Mo Ling looked again at the two little sprites in the space.
After watching the scene, the purple little sprite was very happy, still making that olive-shaped gesture with its hands, its face full of expectation.
The golden little sprite, however, looked confused, examining the golden light on its body, seemingly not understanding why so many strange things would extend from its body.
“Can you fulfill my wish?” The purple little sprite was already somewhat impatient and asked the other.
“Can you fulfill my wish?” the golden little sprite murmured, repeating the purple little sprite’s words again.
“Can you fulfill my wish…” While looking dazed, this golden little sprite could no longer control its body’s movements.
It circled around the purple little sprite again and again, looking confused, constantly repeating, “Wish, wish, wish…”
That voice was full of confusion and bewilderment.
Finally, it stopped circling, fixed in place with wide eyes.
“Wish! I will help you realize it.”
“But I will take your wish as the cost.”
As if suddenly realizing something, the golden little sprite’s speech suddenly became fluent, and its body stopped trembling.
Flying in front of the purple little sprite, it raised its hand and touched the other’s forehead.
Calm and smooth words came from its mouth, “I will fulfill your wish!”
At this moment, it seemed to remember everything, remember its duty, and picked up that ability to realize wishes again.
The purple little sprite’s face was full of joy. It consciously brought its head to the golden little sprite’s finger, letting the golden light emanating from the finger enter its body.
Rippling golden light, like water waves, transmitted into the purple little sprite’s body.
At this time, the golden little sprite was both focused and serious. It no longer had its previous confusion and concentrated on controlling the golden light.
However, the process of it fulfilling wishes didn’t seem so simple. It kept its finger on the purple little sprite’s head for a long time without anything happening.
Mo Ling could only wait quietly. He was also very curious about what would actually happen.
Compared to the future golden little sprite, the current one didn’t look so restrained. Overflowing golden light filled the water flow space, and the way it fulfilled wishes was also different, very simple and crude.
The process of helping the Purple Gauze Creature fulfill its wish was very long, but as time passed, some subtle changes began to appear.
The purple little sprite was gradually stained by the golden light, its body uncontrollably emitting purple gauze nets. These nets would be suppressed and dispersed by the golden light as soon as they appeared.
The golden radiance formed a cage, binding the scattered gauze nets within and twisting them into the shape of a human female.
The little sprite in the golden light seemed somewhat dispirited from overusing its power.
Before long, that clear and gentle voice rang out again:
“According to your wish, I will transform you into a human…”
