The girl sat cross-legged on the bed with a dissatisfied face: "You are not as cold, cruel and evil as I thought."
"Does my portrait give people this kind of image?" Ash looked shocked and scratched his head: "Um...this is the first time we meet, I am Ash, the viewer of the end."
"I am the black and white witch." She shook her body on the bed: "Just call me witch."
"Good evening, witch, have you eaten?"
"Stop, the unnecessary pleasantries are over." She raised three fingers: "I am here this time to establish three principles with you."
"Um?"
"First, if I don't take the initiative to tell you, you are not allowed to ask about my life."
"Second, if I don't take the initiative to ask, you are not allowed to reveal your life."
"Third," the witch raised her third finger, "I will receive the same treatment as the Sword Princess."
Ash thought for a while and asked, "Is it because of the secret?"
The witch said noncommittally: "You can think so."
The Black and White Witch's Silver Blessing and Secret Treasure can be strengthened by concealing information about herself. It is natural for her to demand privacy. She just wants to keep her privacy, so why should Ash not reveal his information?
But Ya Xiu couldn't leak much in the first place - An Nan had just ordered them not to leak secrets to non-office personnel, and even if Ya Xiu wanted to complain about his new boss in the virtual chat, he would be banned by the contract.
As for the treatment of Sword Girl, Ya Xiu thought about it carefully: endless training, the vanguard shield in the virtual realm exploration, the experimental products of various event cards...
"No problem!" Ya Xiu clapped his hands: "I will try my best to fulfill your wish!"
"Now that we have established the principles of communication, if nothing happens, I will——"
"Wait a minute, do you know Sword Girl?" Ya Xiu stopped her and said, "I haven't seen you for a few days. She is...well...she is very busy at her place and can't even spare a moment to see me.
?”
The witch looked at him with great interest: "Are you asking about the swordswoman who is a little naughty but cute, duplicitous and kind-hearted, and often looks pretty in front of the mirror?"
"...Probably?"
"I'm sorry, I don't know that kind of Sword Girl." The witch spread her hands and said, "I just know that besides you, there is a teammate named Sword Girl."
"Then how do you know so much information about her?"
"It can be seen from the vertical painting."
Many question marks popped up on Ash's head. Can the standing painting really reveal so much information?
Damn it, if it weren't for the high-definition light screen, he would definitely have to use a magnifying glass to see clearly every detail of the standing paintings of the Witch and the Sword Princess that were worth studying day and night.
"I'm curious as to why you think Sword Lady wants to see you."
The witch dragged her chin and said with a smile: "If I didn't set the rules with you before the official exploration, I would be too lazy to meet you. After all, the only intersection we have is the exploration of the virtual realm. Apart from that, we are
The most reasonable relationship is between strangers who will never meet each other and do not interfere with each other."
"What is your relationship with Sword Lady? Why does she care about you?"
Ash didn't hesitate: "Because we are not strangers, but companions with a bond. I know she will definitely care about me, just as I care about her in my heart."
The black and white witch looked at Ash quietly, feeling a little silent for a moment.
For some reason, Ash felt that her attitude seemed to have changed slightly. Although the witch seemed very natural and lively as soon as she appeared, she sat on the bed from beginning to end, keeping a large distance from Ash, and her politeness was distant.
Now, although she was still sitting on the bed, her body was leaning forward slightly, as if she was curious about Ash, and her attitude became softer.
"Whether we can appear in front of you like this is not decided by us, but by the bond between us." The witch suddenly explained: "The deeper the bond, the harder it is for us to appear in front of you. If the sword
If Ji really cares about you, then I’m afraid it will be difficult for you to see Ji Ji miss you in the future.”
"So it's not her fault that Sword Lady doesn't come to see you. She is actually waiting for you to appear in front of her, maybe in the virtual realm, or maybe..."
The witch paused: "In short, if you hope to see Sword Queen often, you might as well hope that you and Sword Queen can stay in the virtual realm forever."
"What a strange setting." Ya Xiu frowned and said, "Shouldn't it be that the deeper the bond, the easier it is to meet?"
"Distance brings beauty, and our state is not an entity after all, but longing." The witch shrugged: "The so-called longing means that you don't cherish it when it exists, and you don't get it when you want it."
"However, we haven't seen each other for just a few days, and you still miss Sword Princess so much..."
The witch's eyes were shining and her face was full of curiosity.
"o(*≧▽≦)ツDo you like her?"
"Like it."
Hearing such a decisive and straightforward declaration of love, the witch's eyes widened. She patted her face lightly and asked, "Can you say it again?"
"I like Sword Princess." Ashi said matter-of-factly: "She is so powerful, so cute, and so beautiful. Of course I like her."
Wow!
Wow!
Wow!
The witch wanted to go back immediately and tell the public the news, but she suddenly noticed that Ash was looking at her black and white silk openly when he spoke.
She hesitated for a moment, straightened her legs, and lifted her skirt above her knees, "Then do you like me?"
"If you put on a miniskirt like Li Hui, if your strength in the virtual realm exploration is high enough, and your normal growth rate is not low, I should also like you." Ash looked at the beauty of black and white silk for a moment, and commented very seriously.
.
"...It's such a cheap love."
Ash was puzzled: "Then how expensive do you want it to be? Will the insurance beneficiary write your name?"
That's right, the witch thought, after all, in Ash's view, they are not completely real existence at all, just like no one would fall in love with a piece of paper, Ash's feelings for them naturally stop at 'cheap liking'.
"But I think it will be difficult for you to catch up with Sword Lady's status in my heart, unless your strength is really high."
"Oh?" The witch raised her eyebrows: "Why? Do you think Sword Princess is prettier than me?"
"It's not just a matter of vertical painting," Ya Xiu said: "It's mainly because Sword Princess is the first companion I can trust when I come to this world, the first comrade-in-arms to fight side by side. Let's explore the sea of knowledge together,
We entered the whirlpool together, read the magician's manual together, and participated in the fate quiz together... My life in this world started with Sword Princess."
"To me, she is like the sun rising over the cemetery."
"Just because of this experience of sharing weal and woe, I feel that no one can shake her place in my heart."
