Chapter 135 Is it really important?

Themis of Heaven held an apple in her hand. It was not yet completely ripe, and its skin still had the kind of pathological greenness that is similar to that flowing in the blood vessels of a patient with blood loss. The girl put it in front of her eyes.

, looked at it carefully, and then put it down silently after a while. She raised her head, and her eyes saw a clear sky. Transparent clouds were floating over the high-rise buildings in the city, moving towards the forest in the north. Summer in the Temple of Heaven

The sun was so bright, it seemed like it had never withered.

But the girl knew in her heart that it wasn't that she didn't, it was just that she had been escaping, sometimes actively and sometimes passively.

When the gods and humans of Eden rebelled, she should have stayed and faced Tiandis together, but she was forced out of this chaotic vortex by the latter and failed to participate in the war that led to the destruction of the old world.

When the queen of chaos and order turned against each other for their respective ideals, she had a premonition of Alice's awakening and took the initiative to go to another world to avoid the tragedy being performed on the stage. There seemed to be a force in the dark.

Guide her and make the girl become the only bystander outside the story. It is fate, memory, and the throbbing of the soul. It is also the girl who suddenly realizes her true mission: the mediator is also an observer, and has no qualifications to interfere.

.

This truth that was realized after the birth of two universes once caused Themis in the heavens to suffer. She thought more than once that if she had not helped Alice conceal it at that time, if she had not ignored the abnormal data in the control center, what if

I didn't appear in front of Saint Xalia at that time... I just silently observed everything happening. Would the ending be better?

She convinced herself, so when both Tiantis and Ringer asked her about the whereabouts of the golden apple, Themis of the Heaven, who knew everything clearly, chose to refuse to answer. The three reasons she gave for her refusal seemed to be in line with what the goddess had left.

The instructions were given, but they were not real reasons, she just wanted to escape.

No, it's not about running away, it's about doing the right thing.

But if it is correct, why did I still have trouble sleeping last night and always think about the opposite things? I was thinking when there was no one in the room, I was thinking when I was sleepless late at night, and I am still thinking about it even now - maybe it really led to

The reason for the tragedy is not that she interfered with too many choices in the story, but precisely because she interfered with too little?

If I had not only helped Alice conceal the truth, but also helped her face those rebellious gods and humans, would they not have dared to act rashly under the intimidation of the third descendant of the goddess? What if then?

I did not escape weakly, but stayed to face Tiandis together. Could it be that the battle could actually be won? What if I had not only told Saint Xalia that "sincere emotions will not hurt anyone"

"The truth, but also told her the real reason for the demise of the old world, and warned her to be careful of those who cannot value emotions. Could it be that she and her sisters could actually beware of human betrayal and avoid turning against each other today?

What's the point?

But when she came back to her senses, she realized that there were not so many what-ifs. There was only her heart falling forever empty in a never-ending period of time.

Thinking about what if is the most empty pain.

Themis of Heaven pursed her lips and gently pressed the green fruit in her hand to her heart. What was beating inside was the most important gift given by the goddess to her, to the young girl, and to all the creatures in the world.

Things. The goddess once wanted her to have normal human emotions, but she was weak, evasive, suspicious, sensitive, hesitant, worried about gains and losses, and uncertain... This was all she learned in the end.

Even if you let this fruit replace the beating of your own heart, maybe the result will be no different, maybe even better.

The girl sighed faintly, put the apple down again, and asked calmly without looking back: "What can I do for you, Miss Alice?"

"Eh?"

The golden-haired man who was sneaking behind the door of the rooftop suddenly froze. After a while, she walked out of her hiding place. There was no embarrassment on her face, and her tone was very natural: "Oh, what a coincidence, heaven."

Themis, I was just about to come to the rooftop to enjoy the breeze, and unexpectedly I met you. It seems that we are very destined, right?"

If she hadn't known that she had searched back and forth in the control center more than a dozen times and shouted her name so loudly that it could be heard from several floors up, Themis of Heaven might have believed her.

It's still the same nonsense as before.

If nothing else, it’s time to come over and get close.

"Don't call me with honorifics. We are all descendants of the goddess, why should we be so unfamiliar?" Alice chuckled, walked to the side of Themis in Heaven, put her hands on the wall at the edge of the rooftop, and with a little force,

She turned over lightly and sat up. This was a very dangerous height. The wind was blowing fiercely and whistling. Her skirt swayed in the wind, making a hunting sound. Alice was just a weak body now.

A mortal would definitely be hopeless if she fell from this height, but she didn't look scared at all. She even took the initiative to move closer to Themis in the heaven. The two of them were suddenly very close, so close that they were slightly

If you lean forward, your shoulders will bump into each other - that's what Alice liked to do in the past.

Another meaning of this sentence is that in the past, Alice also liked to sit next to Themis in the Heaven, as if being close would give each other a sense of closeness and trust. So Themis in the Heaven had long been accustomed to this kind of tentacles.

Within reach, the girl subconsciously restrained the floating light wings behind her to make some room for Alice. She placed her hands on the skirt armor of her thighs - it was the appearance of the huge gauntlet after it was disassembled and reconstructed.

The form used by Themis in the heavenly world in daily life, and what appeared in front of the travelers yesterday was the computing form used by her at work.

However, did she just admit that she is the descendant of the goddess?

Themis of Heaven glanced at her quietly, but this subtle movement was also noticed by Alice. The golden-haired maid smiled at her, showing her white teeth. The girl hurriedly looked away, her heart beating a little fast - she actually forgot, Alice

From a long time ago, I have always been a person with keen intuition. Only in rare cases will my senses be blinded by things other than intuition, such as emotions.

But those few situations lead to the greatest tragedy.

Themis of Heaven thought of this, her eyes were dark, she lowered her head, avoiding Alice's gaze, and at the same time gently rubbed the green fruit in her hand, as if she could find a sense of security for herself in this way - even though, no one could

I don't know what she is afraid of.

Alice's curious eyes then moved down and landed on the light blue fruit, and her eyes suddenly lit up. She leaned her head over and asked shamelessly: "What is this, an apple? Can you give it to me?"

"

Themis of Heaven suddenly went down.

Even in the past, Alice would not say such... shameless words, right? When she secretly observed Alice's recovery on Earth, she did not see her showing similar traits. Of course, maybe she was just

She played games alone in her room and never had contact with outsiders. Even though she lost her memory, she still instinctively retained the pain and sensitivity that arose when she was betrayed, and was afraid of all interactions with strangers.

, is more willing to deal with NPCs in the game - even after traveling to the Mirror Star, this trait has not changed.

In this way, she is able to do all kinds of actions that are incredible to others, perhaps because she can only communicate normally if she treats the people around her as virtual or imaginary. Although she

What you think is normal is actually abnormal in the eyes of others.

Themis of Heaven would not think this was abnormal, she just felt deeper self-blame and guilt for it. The girl pursed her lips lightly, silently handed over the fruit in her hand, and watched Alice happily take it, using her sleeves casually

He wiped it on the ground, then took a bite, and the transparent juice splashed out, drawing a beautiful arc in the amber eyes——

"Ah!" The girl's cheek suddenly twisted, as if she was suffering from great pain: "It's so sore!"

Themis of Heaven was silent for a moment before asking: "So, you asked me for this apple just to eat it?"

Alice, who grinned at the sourness of the unripe apples, looked at the silver-haired girl strangely and replied in a matter-of-fact tone: "Of course, apples are not just for eating, are there other uses?

Ah, I know, make apple pie, or make apple cider? But isn’t it still for eating? There’s no difference.”

Themis of Heaven only asked one question, and she started talking a lot, which was no different from Alice in the past. The girl listened quietly to these meaningless and sometimes contradictory nonsense.

, familiar emotions suddenly came to her mind, and she wanted to break through some kind of restraint. But she resisted the urge, with a straight face, without showing any emotional changes.

Alice did not get a response from her, so she was not discouraged. After speaking, her mouth went dry, and she casually bit the apple in her hand again. Her face was still wrinkled up from the sourness, but she still resisted chewing it.

, swallowed it. Seeing this, Themis of Heaven frowned slightly and asked calmly: "If it doesn't taste good, why do you still eat it?"

"Because I'm hungry." Alice replied with a smile: "I ran from the hotel to find you early in the morning. I didn't even have time to eat breakfast. I walked around the building several times looking for you.

I have been so hungry that I can’t stand it for a long time. Let alone a sour apple, even a roasted whole lamb, I can still eat it now!”

"Besides, although this apple is sour, it's not so sour that I can't eat it." She tossed the fruit in her hand, and the gap where she bit it showed a certain vibrant texture under the bright sunlight.

: "Sour and sweet, sweet and sour, sweet and sour, quite refreshing. Do you want to take a bite too? I think your development is not very good, you need to eat more."

She handed the apple to the girl, but the latter shook his head and refused, saying calmly: "I don't need to eat. My current body shape has been fixed since the goddess created me, and there is no possibility of growth."

"I don't think so."

Alice said: "Didn't the goddess always hope that you can live like a normal person? In this case, she must have given you some characteristics that belong to normal people, such as emotions, memory, and a body that can develop normally.

Yes. It’s just that you feel that you can’t grow anymore and refuse to eat, so you have always looked like this little kid. I love you, but you eat on time every day, so you have developed such a youthful and energetic figure, right?"

After that, she also measured her waist with her hands, feeling quite proud of herself, even though Themis of Heaven really couldn't tell that she had any figure.

But this statement made the girl startled for a moment.

It seems... makes sense.

If the goddess wanted her daughter to be a normal person, how could she not give her a chance to grow? However, growth includes not only the body, but also the mind, and Themis of Heaven feels that her heart has never grown.

Yes, that's why it hurts your body, right?

It is impossible for her to have the qualifications to become a girl like others.

The girl's mood dropped inexplicably. Her slender eyelashes drooped slightly, covering the deep thoughts in her eyes. Her voice was clear and calm: "So, do you have anything to do with me, Alice?"

Maybe the gag about the golden-haired maid really had an effect, and the girl's name for her unknowingly became the same as before.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Ah? Oh, yes! I'm here to find you, but I have something very important to ask!"

After her reminder, Alice finally remembered her purpose and nodded hurriedly, as if she was afraid that if she answered slowly, the girl would find excuses to evade.

But Themis of Heaven will not shirk it, because this is her mission - to act as a mediator and observer, to answer the questions of every girl's queen, and to judge their respective paths.

However, in contrast, she also has the right to refuse to answer certain questions.

"If it's about golden apples," the girl said coldly, "I made it very clear yesterday, so there shouldn't be any ambiguity."

"No."

Alice waved her hand: "Of course that matter is also important, but what I want to ask today is not it, but another matter."

Something other than golden apples?

Aren't those already clearly explained in the archival records?

Themis of Heaven couldn't figure out what other things besides golden apples deserved her concern at the moment? Or is Alice now just like Alice before, always unable to grasp the key points?

No, quite the opposite.

Alice firmly believes that as a genius player, she has grasped the key point of the problem. The golden apples that Ringer and Xiaoxia care about are actually meaningless at all. In this temple of heaven

In fact, there is only one thing, or in other words, one person that is really helpful to the main mission -

"Themis of Heaven!"

Alice's eyes were piercing, and her tone was as exciting as if she had found a precious hidden item in an RPG game: "Come with us!"
