It was the familiar warmth and softness, Angelina's movements came to a halt.

The chaotic thoughts became clear, many memories that she buried deep within herself and did not wish to recall surfaced.

The tribe huddled together for warmth in the cold winter, wrapped in thick, warm fur. Her mother gently caressed her head, the Snowfield Wolves were wary of everything outside; nobody knew when hunters' guns would go off, when companions beside them would fall or leave.

Only when someone very close stroked her head would she let go of all her defenses, immersed in moments of warmth and beauty. In her memories, apart from her mother, there seemed to be only one other person who did this, yet she couldn't recall that person's appearance.

The girl's hand gently smoothed her tangled hair, soft as if trying to soothe all her emotional wounds, taking her to a harbor of eternal peace where pain and troubles didn't exist.

The image of the blond girl in front of her gradually became clear. Just at the moment when Angelina was about to remember everything, Xu Xiaoyou's lips curled into an unintended smile, her whole hand bursting with brilliant colors, penetrating Angelina's head.

It worked.

Dye Thief Resonance · Color Adjustment. This was the moment she had been waiting for, dragging Angelina into the long instant of memories, activating at the moment when her spirit let down its guard. Next, she just needed to delete the painful memories of thousands of years and modify them.

She could regain control over this out-of-control character card, making everything so much easier.

The next moment, Angelina stared at her expressionless, grabbed her hand, and slowly pulled it out from her head.

"You're still the same as before," Angelina said. "So vile."

Xu Xiaoyou's pupils contracted; how could this be?

Every time she activated the color adjustment ability, the target would lose consciousness, so why was Anya...not as she thought? Angelina already reached out and pinched her face, forcing her to meet her gaze.

Xu Xiaoyou knew the other had already freed herself from the chaotic state, regained her rationality, and recalled all past events.

The atmosphere fell into a brief silence, the gruesome wound on Xu Xiaoyou's neck healed with the soft green light that contained life force, the blood dried swiftly.

"Next, you will change the memories as I tell you to, otherwise, I assure you, I'll make you wish you were never born." Angelina broke the silence.

"I won't be fooled by you a second time."

Xu Xiaoyou said directly: "Then just kill me."

Angelina frowned.

"No one can force me to do anything," Xu Xiaoyou said, "Only I can suppress your pain."

Angelina's eyes glinted fiercely: "Fine, then I'll kill you now, I told you I'll make you regret it, I won't let you off."

"It's you who brought me all that pain, it's all because of you."

After speaking, Angelina's pale hand bulged with veins.

After a brief moment, Angelina released her hand again.

Xu Xiaoyou knew she had gambled right, the other indeed had no reason to kill her, she held the initiative.

"What do you intend to do?" Angelina asked.

"I can alleviate your pain, bury those hundreds of years of memories under the sea of memory, provided that this suppression can only last for a month, every month you need to come back and find me again."

"Bastard!"

Having guessed Xu Xiaoyou's purpose, Angelina's eyes almost spouted fire, with clenched teeth wanting to strangle the girl in front of her. The other just looked at her fearlessly, with an elusive smile.

"You alone can't suppress those memories, otherwise you wouldn't have come so close to losing control so many times."

"Anya."

"Don't call me by that name!!" Angelina growled, Xu Xiaoyou saw boundless brutality in her eyes, viciously wanting to tear her apart, always seemingly ready to kill her.

"Anya." Xu Xiaoyou repeated.

Angelina: "..."

"Anya."

Angelina laughed: "Are you playing the emotional card with me?"

"What exactly am I to you?"

"A dog you raised, or a handy weapon?"

"Do you want me to bark for you like I used to?"

"Sorry," Xu Xiaoyou said softly. "I have no choice."

"I don't need your charity-like apology, anyway to you on your high throne, everyone is irrelevant."

In the midst of speaking, Angelina placed Xu Xiaoyou's hand into her own chest, the heart within was the organ that carried all her memories and emotions. She stared at Xu Xiaoyou closely, fingertips on the other's carotid artery, like a sharp sword.

Xu Xiaoyou manipulated the ability, Angelina's hundreds of years of memories flashed quickly through her mind, the dye of the other's memories showed a dirty black color, exuding a heavy deathlike atmosphere akin to massive mud.

"Strictly speaking, I didn't lie to you." Handling this chaotic mass of enormous memories was not a small feat for Xu Xiaoyou, she casually chatted with the latter.

Angelina said coldly: "Yes, you didn't lie to me, you returned, and in front of me got hit by a truck, shattered, and your eyeball landed at my feet."

Xu Xiaoyou coughed twice, said: "That was already the gentlest way I could think of."

"What about Lin Ran, did he leave Corrupt Nest City?" Xu Xiaoyou shifted the topic.

"How should I know?" Angelina said viciously, "Also, don't bring up past things in front of me."

Xu Xiaoyou blinked: "Anya, do you hate me that much?"

Angelina fell silent, after a moment: "Do what you have to do."

Xu Xiaoyou helplessly accelerated the speed of processing memories, not long afterward, heard Angelina inadvertently mention:

"Who is she?"

Xu Xiaoyou was puzzled.

"The one with you last night," Angelina looked unconcerned, "Forget it, I don't need your answer."

"I don't care."

Xu Xiaoyou observed Angelina's expression, thinking the other might know something related to the character card, but she didn't specify directly, just raised an eyebrow and said: "What, jealous?"

Angelina felt a chill in her heart, glancing at the girl beneath her: "Seeing you still as hopelessly narcissistic as ever, I'm relieved."

"That obedient little wolf cub suddenly grew up." Xu Xiaoyou sighed. "Became fierce, still better as before, holding onto my waist crying not to be abandoned."

"Don't look at me with that comforting look like a mother seeing her child grown, say this again and I'll kill you!"

Just as Angelina was about to explode, Xu Xiaoyou slowly pulled her hand out from her chest, raising both hands innocently:

"It's done, can you stop pinning me down?"

"This position is rather uncomfortable."

"Of course, if Anya insists on me cooperating..." Xu Xiaoyou turned her face, a touch of alluring blush showing.

Angelina ignored Xu Xiaoyou's poor performance, watching the other with an assured demeanor, leaned down, whispering in Xu Xiaoyou's ear:

"I promise, once I've found another method of suppression, I won't kill you, I'll torture you with every means I can think of, make you wish you were dead."

Long after Angelina left, the final words echoed continuously in her ears.

Xu Xiaoyou stood up and dusted off her clothes, looking at her blood-stained, bedraggled self in the full-length mirror, the mockery fading, eyes left only with calm.
