"You look in a bad mood."

"Um."

"Is it because Elsa left?"

"Um."

"You are so pitiful. Just after showing your affection in front of me, then I did."

"Let me be quiet."

"Actually, if you want to have a drink now, I'm happy to be with you. After all, we have made some promises before."

"No, I don't want to."

"Tsk, you're so boring."

In the galloping black SUV, Riana, sitting in the passenger seat, chatting with Merlin, who was driving with expressionless face.

Basically, it was Riana who was asking, and Merlin only had a brief answer. Judging from Merlin's expression, it was not as good as a chat. He was in a very cold and uncomfortable state at this time.

Riana, sitting in the passenger seat, wore a not-so-exaggerated black dress today, wearing a baseball cap on her head, high heels, and her long golden hair scattered on her shoulders, looking like a beautiful ordinary girl on the streets of New York.

However, under her active appearance, she felt a little nervous inside.

The destination of the two of them was Xavier Talented Youth Academy. Merlin went to pick up two girls and spent the weekend and helped Riana complete what she had to do.

Reunion of relatives.

After the threat of Bellakos was completely lifted, it was time for Riana to return the memory of her brother Piot Latinpus being taken away.

"Do you think he'll get angry?"

After a few minutes of silence, Riana couldn't help asking:

"I beat him half to death and wiped his memory. Anyone who faces this situation will be angry, right?"

"I have no idea."

Merlin replied casually while pulling the reverse wheel:

"You can ask him yourself."

"You really can't comfort people."

Riana glanced at Merlin and she complained:

"Didn't you tell me now that everything will get better naturally, so as to comfort my nervous mood?"

"I'm not in the mood now."

Merlin said:

"Maybe you can comfort me first."

"OK."

Riana snorted, she unbuttoned her seat belt and threw herself on Meilin. The next moment, Meilin, who was caught off guard, was forced to kiss her again.

The Queen of Borders straddled Merlin's lap and pressed him strongly to the driver's seat. Her lips and teeth intersected, and the faint fragrance rushed into Merlin's nostrils. He could feel Riana's tongue moving on his lips.

"Swish."

Merlin's figure turned into black mist and dissipated in the driver's seat. The next moment, he appeared in the back seat, he looked at Riana, he said:

"Is this how you comfort people?"

"I heard that for a broken heart, the best way is to reopen a relationship."

Riana didn't care at all. After Merlin left the driver's seat, she sat there, grabbed the steering wheel with both hands, and moved it with curiosity. The stable car quickly began to move serpentinely on the road.

“Icarus, autonomous driving.”

Merlin pushed his glasses, and the next moment, artificial intelligence took over the car, and it quickly became smoother.

"Hi, don't be stern."

Riana looked at Merlin in the reversing mirror, and she reached out to press her cap, she said:

"You're in a better mood now?"

"No"

Merlin turned his head and looked out the window. After a moment, he shook his head and said softly:

"Okay, it's a little better. But I'm going to confirm again, Riana, between you and me."

"Don't care, it's just fulfilling the promise."

The Queen of the Border waved her hand carelessly, and she said:

"You are not the type I like. You are too old, too old-fashioned, too boring. I really don't know what Elsa likes you."

"I'm puzzled by this problem, too."

Merlin said:

"I hope someone can give me an answer, too."

"Speaking of this, Riana, I don't know if you have that feeling, just like your life has been arranged clearly, you can only be pushed forward according to the rhythm of the story. Even the feelings that appear around you are not sure whether they are real or arranged as well."

He rubbed the stubble on his chin and said:

"It's like falling in love with a mentally induced lady, although they love you very much, it still feels bad."

"Oh, fatalism."

Riana leaned against the driver's seat, and she closed her eyes and rested, saying:

"Many people in hell believe in this. They feel that behind every life there is fate's intervention, especially Bellakos, you know, the kind of evil god believers, they like to do this the most. Use fate to explain every good and bad thing that happens in their lives, so that all seemingly strange changes can be explained, living for destiny and dying for destiny."

"But if you ask me your opinion on this, I will tell you that I think this is nonsense!"

The Queen of Borders snorted, and she said in a casual tone:

"If everything was arranged, how boring would it be. Take a step back and say that if there was someone behind my life, I would find him desperately and slap him twice."

Riana's voice became a little deeper, she said:

"But if everything was as you said, the pace of life would have been clearly arranged, so what? Did you stop because of this? But have you lived? This is our life. Whether it is manipulated or not, life must continue. Look at me, I have been blinded by Bellacos for more than ten years, and am I still very happy now?"

Riana's words were in a mess and not much persuasion, but Merlin did not refute her. The two of them sat quietly in the autonomous car. After several minutes, the car turned around again, and the shadow of Xavier Talented Youth Academy was already in front of her.

"I'm very tired, Riana."

Meilin suddenly sighed, he raised his head and said in a muffled voice:

"It was okay before, but in recent years, one thing after another, one responsibility after another, they were entangled in me, like invisible shackles, aliens, mutants, aliens and Hydras hidden in the dark, those who are always restless, I cannot ignore any of them, especially after taking the promotion of order as my mission."

"I feel unfree, like people living in the net, constantly helping and saving me, and it's hard for me to really do something by myself."

He raised his head and looked at the roof of the car, and he said:

"I want to go to Nan Galaxy, I want to leave with Elsa, I want to take Riven and Lorna away from this world, I want to escape even once."

"I can get a city full of monsters in 48 hours, but my own life is still a mess."

"What are you doing?"

After Merlin finished speaking, Riana asked in a weird tone:

"Are you telling me? Or do you think of me as a priest and listen to your confession?"

"No, I'm just talking casually."

While SUV was parked at the gate of Xavier Talented Youth Academy, Merlin reached out to open the car door. He said to Riana, who was standing beside him:

"You can forget them, or take them back to the border of hell and find a place to bury them."

"You are so pitiful."

Riana whispered:

"Even if you want to talk to someone, you have to be sneaky, but what I want to tell you is that Merlin, the occasional cowardice and escape, is not shameful. No matter how powerful a person is, he will have times of vulnerability."

"Um."

Merlin nodded, he reached out and patted Riana on the shoulder, and he said:

"Let's go, your brother is waiting for you."

—

It was afternoon, and the students of Xavier Talented Youth Academy were still in class, and there were only some young children chasing and playing on the lawn in front of the castle.

In the garden on the edge of the lawn, the Steelers wearing a black vest was watering flowers with a peaceful look on their faces.

This big guy who is so scary that he is a really good-tempered person. All the children in this academy like him very much. He is always very patient. He can explain those uncomplexing math problems to his children over and over again, and can also spend an afternoon telling stories to his children.

His personality, like Riana's slightly reckless temper, was almost the same as the two sides of the coin.

"Piot."

A familiar shout sounded behind Steels. He put down the kettle and turned around and saw Mr. Merlin standing on the lawn looking at him.

Beside Mr. Merlin, there was also a young girl who looked 1.7 meters tall.

She wore a baseball cap, and the raised brim covered half of her face, and her long golden hair was scattered on her shoulders. The slender girl, wearing a black dress and high heels, looked very beautiful.

Along the way, the eyes of the little boys basking in the sun on the lawn were attracted by her.

"Who is this?"

When Steelers saw Riana, a strange feeling that surged from his heart made him unable to help but close his hands.

He was sure that he had never seen this girl before, but the kindness and sadness surged in his heart, the urge to hold her in his arms, what was going on?

"Riana."

Merlin turned her head to look at the Queen of the Border. The latter bit her lips and reached out to cut the space. She took out a crystal bottle with a white halo. As Steelers were gaze, Riana pulled out the bottle plug, and a ray of light flashed out of the bottle mouth quickly, and turned around the unknown Steelers twice. Merlin stretched out her left hand with a silver bracelet. Driven by the magic of the micro-breasts, the stripped memory quickly returned to Steelers' body.

"Bang"

The big guy suddenly had some memories in his mind. The faint pain of tearing and pain, and the thought that became chaotic under the impact of Zia made him sit on the ground with his head in his arms.

He rubbed his forehead hard, trying to soothe the swelling feeling that came from his mind.

"Riana?"

After a moment, he raised his head and looked at Riana, with a hint of doubt, a hint of tremor, a hint of joy and a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice.

"Go."

Merlin pushed the border queen behind her back, and said:

"There is nothing that cannot be explained between relatives. Let's have a good chat with your brother and share each other's past experiences."

"From today, Riana, you are no longer alone."

The Queen of Border took a deep breath, and she walked towards her brother. After two steps, she suddenly turned around and showed a big smile to Merlin. She said:

"No, you said it wrong."

"The moment I met you, I was no longer alone."

"Thank you, Merlin."

When the brothers and sisters meet, they naturally have to talk about some family topics. Merlin is unwilling to disturb the reminiscence between Riana and Genris. He left the garden and waited in the castle for a while. After the students finished class, he saw Lorna carrying a schoolbag and Riven carrying a handbag beside her.

Amid the children's slightly noisy sounds, the two girls walked to Meilin. Lorna hugged Meilin's hand enthusiastically, and Ruiwen stood in front of Meilin. She looked at Meilin suspiciously and said:

"Where is Elsa? Why didn't she come to pick us up?"

"Elsa"

Merlin looked at Riven's eyes, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said softly in a complicated tone:

"She's gone."

"You let her go again?"

Riven's tone was filled with a strong dissatisfaction, she said:

"I don't understand what's going on between you, but Merlin, I saw you two tell each other with your own eyes! Are there other people secretly interfering? What's going on with you? Why can't you even keep the person you love?"

"Things are complicated, Raven."

Merlin tried to appease Riven, he explained:

"There is no problem with the relationship between Elsa and I, just some other factors."

"You defeated Dracula together!"

Ruiwen gritted her teeth and said:

"No legend can stop you! What factors and reasons can stop you from living together in this city?"

"Human life!"

Merlin said to her sister:

"Many lives"

"The result of my forced Elsa to stay with me is that the whole of New York will be ruined by disaster. Riven, I know you are disappointed with me, but we can't do things by our own heart."

Riven looked at Meilin angrily, she knew that Meilin would not joke with her about such things.

A few seconds later, Raven turned her head and stopped looking at Merlin. She said in a low tone:

"You are so pitiful, Merlin"

"You are becoming stronger every day, but you still can't even protect your own love. You put too many shackles on yourself."

This girl said stubbornly:
Chapter completed!
