Quick Transmigration Cannon Fodder’s Record of Counterattacks

Chapter 3246: We Should Terminate Our Contract

Crossbow Lar was caught between laughter and tears, but felt a bit relieved inside.

He had been deeply anxious. Meeting this woman at the end of his life made him want to protect her, but he feared he wasn’t strong enough.

He was already damaged and had resigned to death. He had accepted that fate—but now that fate had changed course.

And he was terrified.

“I’m defective, and my abilities are mediocre. We should terminate our contract,” Crossbow Lar said—but deep down, he was shouting: don’t terminate it, don’t terminate it, don’t…

Ning Shu gave Crossbow Lar a sideways look. He was saying self-deprecating things, trying to push her away, but secretly testing if she’d really leave.

Just like when a girl posts a selfie in her feed and says, “I look so ugly”—does she really mean she looks ugly?

What Crossbow Lar said wasn’t what he truly thought.

He was self-conscious and awkward—what was Ning Shu supposed to say?

Honestly, dealing with someone like that was tiring. But Crossbow Lar was also absolutely loyal.

“Uh…” Ning Shu hesitated. “So what?”

“So you should find a stronger weapon. A normal one—not a reject like me,” Crossbow Lar said, hair covering his eyes.

Under the blood-red moonlight, his face couldn’t be clearly seen.

“Uh…” Ning Shu’s eyes whirled. “You want me to find a stronger weapon—but do you think I even have the ability to attract one right now?”

“I can protect you until you find a strong weapon. Trust me, there will be weapons who will want to make a contract with you,” Crossbow Lar said.

Ning Shu: Uh…

Crossbow Lar really was sensitive and fragile. Nicole was like a beam of light in his life—he felt lucky and fearful…

How should she even respond?

“Uh, uh…” Ning Shu tried to find the words. Looking at Crossbow Lar’s face that was barely visible under his hair, she said, “What would you do without me?”

“My fate will return to the right track and I’ll quietly die—that is my destiny,” Crossbow Lar said, head lowered.

Ning Shu: Uh, uh…

This guy had a fragile heart. Ning Shu said, “Crossbow Lar, it’s me who can’t be without you.”

She raised her hand. In the web of her thumb was a black circular mark—the sign of their contract.

“You keep worrying about things that haven’t even happened, and letting them make you sad. Remember, we’re partners. Please don’t say things like that anymore.”

Crossbow Lar and Nicole loved each other painfully.

Nicole refused to accept other weapons because of him, while Crossbow Lar thought he was holding her back.

He wanted to sacrifice himself. Both of them were suffering inside.

Oh god. Ning Shu held her forehead. This was seriously heart-wrenching and exhausting.

Ning Shu just wanted to straightforwardly finish the task.

“Young man, just say what’s on your mind. You could say something like: ‘From now on, I’m your only weapon.’ Or, ‘If you want to contract with another weapon, you’ll need my approval first.’”

“There’s nothing wrong with saying that.” Ning Shyu spread her hands. “Since we’ve made a contract, we’re responsible for each other’s lives.”

Crossbow Lar fell silent.

Fine, she couldn’t expect a child who lay next to their companion’s corpse every day to have normal thoughts.

He had an inferiority complex and was very sensitive.

Ning Shu felt a little tired and out of energy to love—life was short, so why not be a bit more optimistic?

Finding joy in hardship was really important, boy!

Crossbow Lar raised his head. “Even if you get new companions, you can’t abandon me.”
