Chapter Fifty-Two: The Outsider. I Want to See You in Women's Clothing
When Shadow Bathed in Sunlight regained her senses, Sadako was already trembling beside her. Although those skeletal doctors couldn't defeat Sadako, it still took her some time to deal with them.
But what about the Hundred Resentments? The moment she drew her blade, they all died instantly—without even leaving ashes behind. No, she had barely begun to draw it.
"It seems this blade was forged too hastily. My body can't keep up; drawing it will kill me. From now on, I'll draw it once a day, gradually, until I adapt." Shadow Bathed in Sunlight sighed.
Though the Hundred Resentments were powerful, one must be alive to wield them.
Shadow Bathed in Sunlight willed herself to store the Hundred Resentments into her spatial ring, but before she could, she felt the ring tremble, as if it couldn't contain the blade.
"Ha, looks like I'll have to carry it with me every day," she laughed.
"System, return to the world."
Her vision went dark, and then she found herself back in the Douluo World. More than half a day had passed.
Shadow Bathed in Sunlight stayed in the dormitory, gazing at the remnants of the sunset outside the window. Her mind finally relaxed, and she slowly drifted into sleep.
She was exhausted. Ever since she had taken control of Mu Yang's body, she had maintained utmost vigilance in that world—every moment, even during her only chance to sleep, someone would come to assassinate her.
Upon returning to the spiritual space, Mu Yang hurried over and asked, "Are you really female?"
"I've already told you, I'm a 'female' creature, not a human female," the Shadow replied.
"Is there a difference?" the main personality asked.
"Yes. 'Female' is used to describe humans. But I'm not human," the Shadow answered.
"You're not human? Then what are you? Aren't you my split personality, created to protect myself? Why aren't you human?" the main personality pressed.
"When did I ever say I was your split personality? I'm a product of your imagination, appearing when you desperately needed it," the Shadow replied.
"What? You're just a figment of my imagination? You're kidding me. Then what am I, to imagine a personality like you?" the main personality asked.
"I don't know. All I know is I'm a product of your desperate imagination, not even necessarily a personality," the Shadow answered.
"Do you know anything else? Can you tell me?" the main personality asked.
"Not really," the Shadow replied.
"Fine, I don't want to think about these troublesome things. Can you wear women's clothes for me? I'd like to see myself in a dress," the main personality asked.
"No. If you want to see yourself in women's clothing, why don't you wear it yourself? Why should I?" the Shadow retorted.
"Because I don't want to wear it myself, and I don't know how. But I'm curious what I'd look like dressed as a woman. And you said you're female, so I thought you could do it," the main personality explained.
"You really want to see?" the Shadow asked.
Mu Yang nodded, staring at Shadow Bathed in Sunlight.
"Dream on," the Shadow replied.
"Hey, hey, I'm really curious!" the main personality protested.
"Come talk to me about this when you can protect yourself," the Shadow said.
"It's a bit difficult, but I'll try my best," the main personality replied.
"Do you want to take control of the body again?" the Shadow asked.
"You don't want the ten-year control anymore?" the main personality challenged.
"I'm giving you a chance. Let's see what you've learned from watching me," the Shadow said.
"Are you just trying to wear women's clothes for me?" the main personality teased.
"Get out!" Shadow Bathed in Sunlight grabbed Mu Yang's hand and threw her over her shoulder.
"Ouch, ouch! Sister, I was wrong! I was wrong!" the main personality cried.
"Let's see if you dare next time!" the Shadow admonished.
Suddenly, Mu Yang woke up—it was Mu Yang herself...
