Chapter 958 If You Can’t Bear To Part, Fight!

Number Five gave a bitter smile. He knew Ling Lan was not so easy to fool. He lowered his voice and said, “Little Four is evolving. However, the evolution came suddenly so it could be dangerous too.”

“What is the best and worst-case scenario?” Ling Lan didn’t want to listen to Number Five beating around the bush.

“Little Four might be able to evolve and become more powerful. He will be able to help you even more.” Number Five tried to waste more time but he gave up when he saw Ling Lan’s icy gaze. He finally told her the worst scenario, “or he might have to reboot.”

“That means that the Little Four now may disappear.” Ling Lan clenched her fist. That would explain why her heart hurt just now. Ling Lan treated Little Four as her own younger brother. Hence, there was an intimate connection between the two of them. Her younger brother was in danger so her body was reminding her about it.

“Where is Little Four?” Ling Lan shouted in a low voice.

“He is in his s.p.a.ce. No one can enter it.” Number Five hoped that Ling Lan can calm down. They wanted to help Little For too but they couldn’t.

Ling Lan’s force of presence suddenly exploded. Number Five got thrown back a few meters and the learning s.p.a.ce started trembling.

“Ling Lan, are you trying to wreck the learning s.p.a.ce?” Number Five shouted angrily.

“I want to find Little Four.” Ling Lan looked at Number Five viciously. The firmness in her eyes made Number Five’s heart shudder. He understood that no one was able to stop Ling Lan now. Even if Number One came out, Ling Lan would still do it.

Number Five stomped his feet. “I won’t bother you. However, I have to remind you that you mustn’t harm the learning s.p.a.ce. This is Little Four’s main body. Don’t lose more than what you gain.”

Ling Lan nodded. She looked around the learning s.p.a.ce intently as her force of presence spread to every corner of it, attempting to look for Little Four.

Little Four finally couldn’t resist the overwhelming pressure. He watched as those numbers seeped into his body.

“Little Brother Four, are you crying?” Suddenly, Little Blossom’s puzzled voice came from within the numbers.

Little Four looked up in shock. He gazed at the direction where the sound came from in disbelief. “This is my world. Why am I able to hear Little Blossom’s voice? Is it an illusion?’

His energy was perked up again so that numbers that entered Little Four’s body got pushed out.

“Little Brother Four, where are you? Why can’t I see you when I can feel your presence?” Little Blossom’s voice was heard again.

It wasn’t an illusion. Little Blossom had really come to his world.

“Little Blossom…” Little Four called him weakly. He used up almost all of his energy when he was resisting his system.

The numbers that got pushed out didn’t give up. They congregated together again and charged towards Little Four. Little Four looked at the numbers as they entered his body again. He was still crying but there was a smile on his face.

He was consoled that he managed to hear Little Blossom’s voice before he disappeared. He knew that even if he disappeared, he would still exist in Little Blossom’s memory as well as his Boss’s memory.

Little Four looked at his body that was becoming more transparent by the second. After a while, his body would dissipate into the air. This scene looked familiar. That year, when he was clearing the enemies of his Boss in the virtual world, this was what he did too. He formatted them and then dissolved them. He didn’t expect himself to face this situation too. He would disappear just like those people.

Little Four closed his eyes slowly, as he waited for his disappearance.

“Little Brother Four, why are you crying?” Little Blossom’s voice was near his ears. Little Four opened his eyes in astonishment and he saw Little Blossom’s cold face in front of his eyes.

“Why are you leaning so close?” Little Four shouted angrily. ‘Don’t you know that it’s scary here?’

Little Blossom raised his right hand and wiped the skin under Little Four’s eyes. A crystal-clear drop of water landed on the tip of his finger. Little Blossom looked at the tear carefully and then looked up with a stern face. “You are really crying.”

Little Blossom touched his heart. No wonder he felt so uncomfortable just now. He felt as though he was going to lose something. It was a terrible feeling. He took much effort to come here because he wanted to know what was happening.

“I’m not crying.” Little Four wiped his eyes. He refuted arrogantly, “Only you’ll cry. I won’t cry.”

Little Blossom looked at the teardrop on his finger and then looked at Little Four’s stubborn face. He saw Little Four’s red ears and nodded. Then, he put his finger in his mouth. This tear was made up of formulas and data so by right, there was no taste to it. However, Little Blossom found it salty just like how the books always described how tears taste like.

Little Four had calmed down by now. He saw that he was still able to maintain his body shape. He looked at Little Blossom who was standing in front of him and understood what was happening. Little Blossom was blocking the invasion of the numbers so he didn’t disappear yet.

However, Little Four wasn’t relieved that he managed to escape the number. He shouted in fear, “Little Blossom, hurry up and leave this place. If you don’t leave, the number will format you too.” He was still able to restart if he disappeared but Little Blossom would be non-existent if he was reformatted.

‘I can’t harm Little Blossom.’

Little Blossom looked at the numbers that gave him a sense of danger. He was able to swallow data but he was afraid of data like these. But, he glanced at his Little Brother Four. He couldn’t let his brother disappear. He was someone who had been with him from the moment he opened his eyes.

No. Little Blossom felt that before he opened his eyes, he could already sense Little Four’s presence. When he was asleep, Little Four would accompany him and talk to him. He even encouraged him. That was why he was willing to recognize Little Four even after he recognized his master.

Only Little Blossom knew that Doomsday Flower had no friends. Once they recognized a master, they would reject all the people around their master. That was why Doomsday Flower could destroy the world easily. Little Four was not sure about this so he almost put himself at risk when he asked Little Blossom to recognize Ling Lan as his master. If the hidden memory and the sense of familiarity didn’t stop Little Blossom, Little Four might have been eaten by Little Blossom the moment they had met.

Of course, this was all in the past. Little Blossom now had sincerely accepted Little Four as his brother now. Based on what his Boss said, it was a brotherly love that couldn’t be forgotten.

Since he couldn’t bear to part, he would fight.

Little Blossom grabbed a chain of numbers that attempted to come nearer to his brother. The chain of numbers twisted furiously when it got grabbed. Little Blossom’s gaze turned cold. He pulled it and opened his big mouth. He bit the numbers with his white teeth.

The instant Little Blossom bit the numbers, the chain of number disintegrated.
