Mia had absolutely no idea what Judy was doing.
Or occasionally, she knew Judy seemed to have done certain things, but she always thought it was Judy's nature, liking to try those... bold things. After all, in the Land of Freedom, among those elites in the luxury goods industry... many people play wild games.
Although she was not in charge of sales, she had seen countless outrageous behaviors by those salespeople to get close to clients.
Judy was just someone who liked to do such things. In Mia's perception, that was it.
But at this moment, listening to Judy's nearly roaring question, Mia was stunned. His world seemed to be collapsing.
Yet over the years, he had developed a certain logic, he was accustomed to having a superior life by nature.
"You... you're lying to me, right?"
Judy looked at Mia's appearance, seeing his seemingly disbelieving expression, she suddenly wanted to laugh:
"You can just think I'm lying to you. It doesn't matter; I'm not leaving anyway. Mia... here, I can live the way I want to."
Mia used to think Judy was just a pet of his, he thought losing Judy wouldn't mean anything.
But when the time of parting came, when he wanted to return to the Ark, to shed his male identity—
Mia suddenly felt a bit terrified.
It turned out that he was the one being cared for, he suddenly realized that without Judy, there would be many trivial matters in his life to handle.
But he was an artist, how could he do such things?
Arrogance made Mia unwilling, he started constantly thinking about those things that could give him a headache.
At this moment, Judy finally sensed something was wrong:
"What... what's happening? Why is it so dark outside?"
The darkness outside, could it be related to Mia? Judy couldn't help but wonder.
But at this moment, Mia was also in immense pain.
Although his memory was erased, Mia had changed significantly, he kept thinking, pondering, and questioning—why did Judy want to become a man, why were there only men in this world, yet he hated men but not Judy?
It all indicated there was another... gender.
Stimulated by intense pain, Mia finally thought of the answer.
"I won't let this concept disappear! You have to turn back! You serve me! You owe me! You owe me!"
Mia's expression turned ferocious, completely different from the intellectual look before.
Judy was scared.
Mia roared loudly:
"Judy, you are a woman! A woman!"
The word was finally spoken.
At that moment, a loud roar echoed through the sky.
Countless people outside started to exclaim.
The entire ground began to tremble.
Mia and Judy lost their balance amidst the shaking ground. The building started to collapse.
The chandelier on the ceiling fell, the bottles and cans on the table began to slide off with a crash.
At the critical moment, Mia was bewildered and helpless, but Judy suddenly rushed to protect Mia, holding his hand, soothing the hysterical and then extremely panicked Mia.
"Don't be afraid... don't be afraid!"
Judy himself was also scared, but he couldn't care less. He loved Mia. To him, it was really Mia who had helped him escape the city and get on the Ark.
With so many monsters, so many eerie legends and tales in the city, it was unimaginable what would become of someone staying on land.
But at the moment, Judy had no way to protect Mia.
Under the shroud of black mist...a gigantic monster descended from the sky.
Judy remembered the sound of that monster.
It was the War Sea Monster! That sound couldn't be wrong, all Ark people would remember.
Judy was stunned, how could the War Sea Monster have followed them onto the island? Wasn't it said that the War Sea Monster would never set foot on the island?
Precisely because of this, the Ark docked near the Evil Land's fragment island and arranged people to land for a brief period of peace without being hunted by the Sea Beast.
An enormous tentacle swept across, destroying many buildings. Amidst the collapsing buildings, Judy and Mia struggled to keep their balance, Judy merely clung to Mia tightly. Thinking Mia must not die.
And at this moment, another tentacle pierced through layers of building walls, suddenly attacked, accurately entangling Mia and Judy.
Due to the proximity, Judy finally saw clearly... it truly was the War Sea Monster.
Tentacles like giant tumors filled its body, those disgusting tentacles that could induce hallucinations!
The tentacle wrapped around the two of them, Judy only felt excruciating pain, a massive force seemed to crush his body.
It felt like his internal organs would explode.
But it was different for Mia, Mia only felt a warm force enveloping him. Countless tiny, worm-like creatures began to pour into Mia's body.
At this moment, Mia's eyes suddenly opened.
"No women. Only men, there are only men in this world!"
Mia mechanically repeated this sentence, from initial bewilderment, to slight resistance, to complete compliance, ultimately emotionlessly muttering again and again.
But Judy was already spewing blood, from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth, blood oozed out due to the immense pressure.
"Mia... I'm dying..."
At the end of his life, Judy reminisced about past events.
Promiscuity, whore, depravity, drugs... these things seemed to always surround him.
