Collapse: The World I Live In

"I...how come...I fainted again..." Yi slowly opened his eyes, looked at the unfamiliar ceiling, and said, "Where...is this place?"

"Dr. Yi! You're finally awake!" Desdobia said hurriedly with tears in her eyes and a bandage on her head.

"How long have I been unconscious?" Yi asked as he sat up.

"More than twenty minutes." Abonya, also with bandages on his body, said as he sat aside. The three of them had suffered a lot of injuries and the energy in their bodies had not yet recovered.

"Aren't we back to reality yet..." Yi said, pressing his forehead with one hand, then looked at his bandaged right hand and said, "Where is this place..."

Destobia looked at Aponia, and Aponia looked at Destobia.

"What's wrong? Is there anything you can't say?" Yi asked, looking at the two of them.

"Not really...it's just..." Desdobia waved her hand and said, at this moment the door of the room was pushed open, and a beautiful woman walked in, it was Eden!

"Yi...how do you feel?" Eden walked in and asked Yi who was sitting up.

"Eden? Why are you here?" Yi looked at Eden in shock. Could it be that the familiar aura he felt before was Eden? This was too much of a coincidence, right?

"Why can't I be here?" Eden was puzzled by Yi's words. He looked at the other two people beside the bed and said, "You look like you have something to say, so I'll go out first and you guys chat slowly." After that, he left the room.

"That's the thing..." Desdobia scratched her head and said, "It's because of Eden's help that we have a place to rest."

"Really?" Yi said, and forced himself to get out of bed.

"Dr. Yi! You are still injured, it's better not to..." Desdobia wanted to persuade Yi not to leave the bed, but was interrupted by Yi and said, "You wait here, I'll go talk to Eden." After that, he walked out of the room.

"...Sister Nia...do you know what the relationship between Eden and Dr. Yi is?" Desdobia asked Abonya who was standing beside her.

Aponia touched his chin and said, "I'm not sure... but they must be very close... I saw the two of them..." Aponia made a gesture to Desdobia, who was shocked and said in disbelief, "Hey! How could this be? Captain Hen told me before that Dr. Yi and Dr. Mobius are..."

……

"Are we done talking so soon?" Eden said as he sat on the sofa outside and took a sip of coffee.

"We're done talking." Yi sat opposite Eden, not knowing how to start the conversation for a moment. He looked around and saw a photo frame on the cabinet next to him. On it was a photo of Eden and himself. Yi turned around and was shocked by a photo. It was his wedding photo with Eden.

"You said yesterday that you had to go out for something, but now you are injured. What happened?" Eden asked with concern.

"This..." Yi didn't know how to explain it. After all, according to the current situation, Eden in the illusion should have no memory of the real world, and he had also replaced the self in Eden's illusion.

"Forget it, it's okay if you don't say it." Yiden said when he saw that Yi didn't answer. Yi wanted to explain but Yiden interrupted him with his next words, "Just be careful next time and don't get hurt so badly."

Still so gentle... Yi couldn't help but smile when he heard Eden say that. No matter in dreams or reality, Eden never changed, silently supporting him behind him.

"Don't worry...it won't happen again..." Yi said with a smile, and then started chatting with Eden about family matters. The two of them were like an old married couple, and the scene was full of harmony.

"So... we've been ignored, right..." Desdobia said as she poked her head out of the room and looked at the two people in the living room.

"It should be... yes." Aponia said, resting her head on Destobia's.

At this moment, danger is gradually approaching, and an uninvited guest appears in the illusion where the four people are.

"Hmm? Three disgusting auras..." The Herrscher was suspended in the sky, looking down at the city from above, his eyes full of contempt and his face stained with blood, "Then you will also die with the master of this world..." Then his figure disappeared into the sky.

The next time he appeared was behind Eden, facing Yi, waving the sword in his hand and slashing at Eden.

Yi was horrified when he saw the Herrscher coming. He rushed over and knocked Eden to the ground, avoiding the Herrscher's knife. Desdobia and Aponia in the room also rushed out to face the Herrscher.

"Why... why are you here..." Yi held Eden in his arms and asked the Herrscher with a look of horror.

"Why? This is my world, why can't I be here? Then you three invaders will die!" The Herrscher said angrily. If it weren't for these three people holding him back, how could his secret be discovered! It's all because of these three people!

"Eden, find a place to hide first, and leave the rest to me..." Yi said to Eden in his arms. After all, Eden had no fighting ability now. Eden also knew that he would hinder the three people here, so he left this place.

The Herrscher didn't care about all that and slashed at Desdobia in front of him. Desdobia quickly dodged and wanted to fight back with her telekinesis, but her telekinesis had not yet recovered and she was kicked away by the Herrscher and fell from the second floor.

Aponia on the side wanted to help Desdobia, but was knocked away in an instant.

"Damn it!" Yi could do nothing when he saw Desdobia and Aponia being defeated at this moment.

The Herrscher instantly appeared in front of Yi, and before Yi could react, the Herrscher pressed his head down and smashed it to the ground.

"Aren't you very powerful? Keep going! Hahahaha!" The Herrscher kept smashing Yi's head against the ground with such force that the floor of the second floor was smashed through and fell to the first floor. He then threw Yi aside, and the flying Yi directly smashed the wall cloth, and the rubble buried Yi's body.

"Huh... I finally feel relieved." The Herrser let out a breath and said, "It's time to send you off! Let's start with you!" The Herrser walked slowly towards Yi with a knife in hand.

Blood gushed out from new and old wounds, one of his eyes could not be opened, his whole body was weak and he no longer responded to Yi's commands.

The Herrscher was getting closer and closer, when suddenly a microwave oven was thrown at him, and he dodged sideways.

"Why... did you come here? Go away! Eden! Why are you here!" Yi looked at Eden who came to his side and yelled at Eden with the last bit of strength in his body.

"I can't just watch you die in front of me... Although I still don't understand the specific circumstances... But I'm unwilling to just watch you dying and do nothing... Just consider it as my being willful..." Eden helped Yi up and slowly walked outside.

"But... you will die! I can still delay it for a while, you take the opportunity to leave! This way, you may survive!" Yi said to Eden.

"Yi! You are really... so selfish... Have you ever considered my feelings? If you die... what will I do?" Eden gritted his teeth and led Yi out of the house, tears streaming from the corners of his eyes. He said to Yi, "We are husband and wife... We don't have the habit of running away when disaster strikes..."

"Eden..." This is the first time I've seen such a stubborn Eden.

"Ahhh ~ How touching!" The Herrscher kicked down the wall, walked out of the house and said, "Then I'll grant your wish! Let's be a pair of desperate mandarin ducks!" After that, he raised the knife and slashed at the two of them. This attack could not be avoided. Eden used all his strength to throw Yi out. Although Eden said that Yi was selfish, who isn't selfish?

"No, Eden!" Yi was thrown out, watching the blade getting closer and closer to Eden, but he was powerless. Was he going to lose it again? Why was it like this?

But just as the blade was about to hit Eden, the knife in the Herrscher's hand began to disappear from the blade.

"How is this possible? So fast?" The Herrscher looked incredulous, and then his limbs, torso, and head disappeared. Just like that, the Herrscher disappeared into the air unwillingly. If you ignore the destruction around him, it was as if he had never appeared.

Yi didn't know where he got the strength from, he stood up and ran towards Eden, hugged Eden tightly in his arms, and said, "That's great, that's great! You're okay..."

Eden also came back to his senses. He didn't mind the blood on Yi's body at all. He hugged Yi, patted Yi's back gently and said, "It's okay... It's okay..."

As for why this happened, let us return to reality. Kevin has locked onto the Herrscher's room. He is holding the Divine Key made from the core of the Seventh Herrscher - Herrscher of Flame, and the Sword of Destruction - Judgment of Skyfire, which has the destructive power to burn the entire continent.

Kevin frowned at the messy room and the pungent smell, and went to look for the Herrscher in each room. Garbage, garbage, and garbage were all Kevin saw. But in places he didn't notice, the black garbage bags were slowly overflowing with blood...

Arriving at the last room, Kevin opened the door. It was a room different from the previous ones. This room was clean and tidy. A gray-haired girl was lying on the bed with her eyes closed. No one would have thought that such a girl was the culprit of this collapse—the Herrscher of Consciousness.

Kevin took a deep breath and mercilessly thrust the Skyfire straight into the Herrscher's body. The Herrscher's body instantly turned to ashes, leaving behind a red core...

At this point, the eighth collapse officially ended...
