Chapter 20 The Afterlife(1/2)
Chapter 20 Things After Death
Chido never concealed his dislike for Hawke.
Geinhawk was once a "grave robber" who traveled around ruins and tombs.
It was also because this "grave robber" whom she deeply hated, actually snatched away her most important "best friend".
If it was just like this, forget it, this damn bastard, instead of giving his "best friend" happiness, he actually made his "best friend" suffer consequences that he shouldn't have to bear at the cost of his life.
Qi Duo has never understood why a "best friend" would fall in love with a man like Hawke.
So after that "incident" ended, she often felt deeply worthless for her "best friend".
Now--
It was just a formal contact, and Chiduo's urge to take Moyu away could not be restrained no matter what.
And the memories that kept flooding in her mind were actively stimulating her emotions.
This resulted in her being unable to control her emotions and blurting out her thoughts.
"Well."
Moyu was shocked by Chiduo's words and didn't know what to say for a moment.
He could vaguely sense——
What must have happened in the past between Hawke, Chiduo, and their mother who had no memory of their predecessors.
but,
Not to mention Chiduo's motive for taking him away, anyway, he didn't want to leave the temple for the time being.
Because the location here is remote and quiet enough, it is an excellent practice environment for him.
His current plan is to quickly consolidate the foundation of the "Four Elements" and then master the two high-level application skills of "Condensation" and "Condensation".
Only when he reaches this point will he consider leaving the monastery.
Even if he wanted to leave, he would basically not choose to go with Chiduo.
Who knew how many opposing enemies a "two-star" professional hunter would have?
The most important thing is that the Sky Arena, where he can gain combat experience, is where he wants to go in the future.
About this——
In fact, he has already made a plan. Anyway, he is waiting for his telekinesis skills to be proficient enough, and then without using his "psychiatric ability", he will use only his telekinesis skills to fight against the posters in the Sky Arena.
The reason for not using "psychic ability" is because I don't want to expose my ability to the public in a useless way. I only use telekinesis skills because I want to accumulate strength faster.
Chiduo naturally didn't know what Moyou was thinking.
She looked at Moyu who was silent and wanted to further explain that she was not joking.
But the timely return of reason stopped her thoughts.
The highest priority thing at present is not to take Moyu out of here, but to completely eradicate the "power of price" that can threaten Moyu's life safety.
"I mean--"
Chiduo regained her composure and whispered in the tone of an elder: "The city I am in is very prosperous and lively. If you are free later, you can go back with me and play there for a few days before coming back."
"Okay, I've never seen a "big city" in my whole life."
With the help of the memory fragments of his predecessor, Moyu showed an expression of anticipation and excitement at the right time.
Chiduo smiled slightly, then raised her index finger and said, "There is one more thing."
"Um?"
Moyu looked at Chiduo in confusion.
Chiduo stressed: "Don't use honorifics to me in the future."
"..."
Moyo felt something was wrong, but he chose to do what was right.
Then——
Chiduo took the initiative to start a conversation with Moyu.
It was said to be a chat, but in fact it was more like a one-sided inquiry from Chiduo.
Such as...
Did Hawke ever beat you, what did Hawke usually give you to eat, would Hawke let you do odd jobs to support the family, and other questions.
I don’t know how Chiduo came up with so many questions. He asked them from morning to noon, and asked them in detail...
Moyu almost couldn't resist. Seeing that it was already noon, he quickly used making lunch as an excuse to get rid of Chido's inhumane "care".
However, as soon as he stood up, Chiduo pushed him back to his seat.
"Sit still and I'll do it."
Chiduo took the spotlight and said in a tone that did not allow for objection.
That strong and confident attitude made Moyu do as he pleased once again, and he sat obediently in his chair without moving.
Chiduo went straight to the kitchen.
"..."
Walking into the kitchen, Chiduo lowered his head slightly.
The luster reflected on the lenses obscured her eyes.
After a few seconds of silence, Chiduo raised her hand and gently pushed the frame of the mirror, and immediately began to cook.
Half an hour later.
Black smoke billowed out from the chimney on the kitchen roof, and there was a strong smell of burning.
"?"
Moyu looked at the black smoke mixed with the smell of burning coming out of the kitchen, and unconsciously flashed through his mind the confidence Chido showed when he pushed him back into the chair.
A two-star disease hunter who specializes in helping people solve various difficult problems but can’t cook?
Classic setting, right?
Moyu couldn't complain, so he walked through the black smoke to the kitchen, and saw the unknown object in the iron pot at a glance. It was so dark that it was impossible to tell what ingredients it was.
Looking further down, there was a lot of firewood stuffed into the stove, and the raging flames seemed to be breaking free from the stove, and kept spraying out of the stove mouth.
Chiduo stood by the stove, holding a spatula in his hand, looking a little at a loss.
"I'll do it."
Moyu glanced at Chiduo and suggested.
"Okay, okay."
Chiduo left the kitchen dejectedly.
Soon.
Moyu cooked a pot of noodles. I can't guarantee how good the taste will be, but the portion will be enough.
When the meal started, Chiduo, perhaps feeling embarrassed, kept eating the noodles with his head down and stopped asking Moyu many daily questions.
This made Moyu feel a lot more relaxed.
After simply filling his stomach, Moyu went directly to the guest room to clean up so that Chiduo would be more comfortable when he stayed overnight tonight.
"After a long time, I was asked so many trivial questions... but they only didn't ask me about "mind". What is the reason why I selectively turned a blind eye?"
Moyu swept the floor with a broom and lowered his head to think.
"Forget it, let's wait until Hawke comes back."
rustle--
The broom shook and dust flew around the room.
At night.
After having dinner, Moyu returned to his room to practice the basics of the Four Elements.
In the past, he practiced in the atrium, but now that there is one more person in the temple, Moyu can only continue to practice in his room.
The night is getting darker and quieter.
Chiduo slowly walked out of the room and came to the release pool in the atrium.
“It’s so quiet.”
Chiduo lowered his head and stared at the release pool.
Ordinary, nothing special.
If you are not an "informed person", how would you know——
