No matter how reluctant Ning Feng is to admit it, he is not a dull person.
Maybe he could be counted as a teenager, but after experiencing so many things, he can no longer be counted.
Alice may have been unclear to others about her emotions, but Ning Feng himself was still clear about it.
He broke the agreement, but the other party still had good intentions and old feelings in his heart, and in fact, we are all kind-hearted people...
The matter seems to be very simple when it comes to this. In principle, there is no irreconcilable conflict, and it can be quickly resolved with a few soft words.
And for a prophet who can light a torch in people's hearts and convey his will to millions of people, it is not easy to incite emotions.
Over time, I have developed an aura on my body, and my eyes can convey emotions.
In the later stage, he doesn't even have to take the initiative to do anything. Just standing in front of the opponent will make someone take the initiative to bow down.
This is actually a very scary thing.
His followers who admire him will call him a "prophet", while his enemies who hate him will fearfully call him a "demon who plays with people's hearts".
Part of that power comes from the special divinity condensed in him, but more of it comes from a special personal charm.
If this ability is strictly classified, it can be regarded as a special kind of aura.
Although it has been a long time since he used it with others, the methods of playing with people's hearts are similar, and Ning Feng's technique of gaining sympathy is actually not bad at all.
If Ning Feng takes the initiative, he can even foresee the next development.
As long as he now tells the truth about the loneliness and pain he is also suffering, tells Alice that he has not actually broken his oath, and speaks out his pain, the matter will be easily solved.
At least it won't be so sharp. Alice will no longer regard Ning Feng as a liar who betrayed his oath, and Ning Feng will have more opportunities to get back together with her.
But Ning Feng didn't plan to do that this time.
Even if that could alleviate his guilt, it was actually meaningless to Alice.
She could have not gotten involved in this kind of thing. She could have left this world and walked away in a carefree way after everything was settled.
It was Ning Feng who dragged her into the quagmire of this world and handed the responsibility into her hands before leaving.
Even if they never explicitly say it, it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
Such a "request" is very weak and weak. At that time, Alice can still abandon those people and leave.
But Alice stayed.
Turs, Habalon, Jasleen, Ash... not only these people, but all the members of the Prophet's Society have become shackles for her to stay.
Even if they didn't say anything.
But the longing in their souls, the hope in their eyes, the reverence in their actions...
During the time when the Prophet disappeared, she alone supported everything in the Prophet's Society, and even said...she single-handedly raised the banner to determine the fate of mankind.
Although Alice calls herself a stargazer, she has never looked up at the stars. Instead, she has always cast her gaze on the mortals under the sea of clouds.
Loneliness, she endured it.
She took responsibility.
Pain, she tasted it.
So, do you want to compare with her now?
Now, suddenly the heartless person suddenly jumped out and said:
"You've got it all wrong, you've wrongly blamed me."
"My life is actually worse than yours, and my pain is even greater than yours."
Does this really make sense?
Apart from the responsibilities imposed on her shoulders, are there no other emotions that have supported Alice to this day?
some.
Hatred for those who break oaths.
Precisely because she hates the other person's behavior of breaking his oath, she will never become like him.
Perhaps Ning Feng really brought Alice short-term happiness, but the pain he left behind was extremely long-lasting.
Not only did he live in other people's homes, but he also brought a large group of people with him and his family. Finally, he had to have his butt wiped by others after he suddenly disappeared...
From this perspective, what Ning Feng did during the prophet period can definitely be regarded as a scumbag.
Even if Alice had resentment towards Ning Feng, he wouldn't have any surprises.
The being who has been sitting alone in the Sky City for thousands of years is a stargazer, not the innocent and cheerful Alice who once was.
Can not go back.
It is impossible for such a being to be forced to change his will just because of a few words.
The wound has already appeared, and even if it heals, it will leave a scar.
"There's no going back."
Ning Feng was very calm.
For him, this was a reunion that was bound to happen, and he had rehearsed it thousands of times in his mind.
Not going to see Alice immediately was not escaping reality, but giving her time to recover.
Ning Feng is willing to accept all decisions.
Whether it's forgiveness or resentment, he can accept it.
As long as that is her sincerity.
But if possible, Ning Feng still hopes that Alice will not indulge in resentment all the time.
It's enough to be alone for so long, don't torture yourself any more.
"...it's almost time."
Feeling that the atmosphere over there gradually returned to calm, Ning Feng knew that the other party should be ready, so he touched the edge of the pool to calm the city's mood.
Buzz——
The city was shaking, as if it was worried about something.
"It's okay, don't worry."
"Everything will be fine."
Comforting, Ning Feng suddenly raised his head and looked in one direction.
In a certain house in this city, there were some items related to him, calling him to check them out.
"Sorry, please wait for me a little longer."
Now is not the time.
Turning around, Ning Feng's figure disappeared by the pool.
…
…
Dong Dong.
He raised his hand and knocked on the door. After receiving no response, Ning Feng opened the door and walked in calmly.
It's as familiar as it was a thousand years ago.
Looking at the stargazer with light-colored eyes, Ning Feng sat down on the chair opposite her.
silence.
Neither of them spoke for the first time and looked at each other in silence.
Finally, when Ning Feng was about to speak, the stargazer opposite asked softly:
"What should I call you?"
"Ning Feng? Or a prophet?"
Ning Feng lowered his eyes for a moment, looked at the stargazer, and spoke softly:
"It's okay, it's all me."
Ah.
"I remember that here too, there was a man who insisted that he was not someone else."
Ning Feng was silent, not entangled on this issue, and asked instead:
"What about you? What should I call you?"
Alice, or... Stargazer?
How do you want to be called by me?
"Yeah, what should I call it?"
The stargazer looked up at the starry sky above his head and said to himself:
