The night at Yunjing Sky Island is as quiet as a silent opera. No matter how cold and sticky black wind whines and howls in the forest, it cannot touch this quiet place guarded by angels. Only under the primrose fields
A few hibernating crickets, unaware that they have arrived thousands of miles away from their hometown, are still vibrating the strings of the piano tirelessly, emitting harmonious chirping.
Shelia carried a small basket and walked slowly across the field ridge. Along the way, she attracted a large number of light-seeking flying insects, which surrounded her thin and slender silver hair like a doll's silk threads, fluttering and dancing, creating a lively scene.
.However, when this
When the cold-tempered bartender stopped, they dispersed and flew towards the street lights further away, as if they saw something more attractive in the orange lights, bright, warm, and
A touch of warmth.
"Ietta——"
Shelia stood outside the door and shouted to the closed door: "Sister told you to go back for dinner!"
Beside the window sill, the curtains with a pattern of seven-color primrose petals moved slightly, and then were opened, and a small white head came out. The feathers around the ears trembled slightly in the night wind: "
Shelia, hug, I’m sorry, I think it’s fine if I eat here..."
She hesitated and said apologetically.
"Why?" Shelia tilted her head, and the smooth bangs on her forehead tilted down, covering her right eye: "Didn't you say that it was very lively and happy to have dinner with everyone in the hotel? Everyone is waiting for you,
Xiaoxia and Linge are also here."
"Yes, really? Did I say that?"
Miss Angel's eyes wandered and her tone was erratic: "Maybe... yes, but maybe not? If I said that, it must be because I was still childish at that time... yes, very childish! Now I am a mature adult
Yes, I prefer to eat alone!”
Does anyone say that mature adults must eat by themselves?
Shelia felt that this was really a lame excuse, but compared to the truth, it still made people feel better. It was impossible for her to tell Iyetta directly that the matter had nothing to do with you, and you did not need to take all the responsibility.
This kind of comfort may make Ieta feel even more uncomfortable because she already knows that her guilt and self-blame are unnecessary, and she just does this to make herself feel better.
Recently, Cloud Whale Sky Island has always been shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere, as if it was going to rain. Shelia raised her head and glanced at the gloomy sky, and couldn't help but think that maybe the lights on the ground couldn't do anything at all.
It shines like the stars in the sky, so even if you have seen the stars in the universe, you will still be drowned in darkness after falling to the earth.
However, the eldest sister also said that at times like this, it is time for everyone at the hotel to play their role. They must use the most sincere greetings, the most attentive service and the most considerate care to let those who
Even if they are hunted by the Night Watch and the Scales of Order, guests who have nowhere to return can still feel the warmth of home.
Shelia came back to her senses, picked up the food basket in her hand, and signaled to Miss Angel at the window sill: "Well, since you don't want to go back to the hotel to eat with everyone, how about you let me accompany you? You
You won’t reject me, Iyeta?”
"Huh?" Iyeta blinked: "Is it okay?"
"Of course." Shelia nodded vigorously.
"Then, I'll leave it to you, Shelia~"
The voice swirled lightly in the wind and was blown away. The little head had already retracted into the house, and Shelia soon heard a trampling of footsteps, followed by the sound of the doorknob twisting. She was really
I'm so excited. I obviously want to have dinner with everyone. I obviously feel lonely when I'm alone. I've already walked out, but I still have to go back...
Shelia thought to herself, would she be happier if it was Linger instead of herself?
But then again, if it was Linger instead of herself, maybe she could be allowed to come out.
pity.
That guy is not gentle at all.
…
"I think," the silence that was like sinking in the deep sea was interrupted by a timid voice: "Mr. Ringer has always been gentle and considerate of others, right?"
"Gloria shut up!"
Bai Ye scolded her mercilessly. This was a conversation between her and Ringer. When was it the turn of a little fool to interrupt? The voice in her mind whimpered and silently shrank into the corner of her consciousness, not daring to do so.
Another squeak. The gray-feathered falcon resting on the girl's shoulder seemed to be aware of the two masters.
Fighting openly and secretly, I felt that I couldn't support any side, and I felt deeply torn. In the end, I simply became a deserter. I fluttered my wings and flew away from my master. With a rapid crash like a shower, a dozen feathers flew in the air.
It whirled around and landed slowly on Bai Ye's hair and shoulders.
The gray-feathered falcon circled under the spire of the church several times and found a suitable foothold. It seemed that it did not understand what faith and awe were, and it landed directly on the palm of the goddess statue, with a pair of clear blue eyes open.
His eyes looked curiously at the two parties looking at each other in the audience, looking at Ringer for a while, and then for his master, his head swaying back and forth.
"If I hadn't known you in the past, I might not know you today."
Bai Ye gently brushed off the feathers on his shoulders and said in a cold tone: "In the past, you would not mind testing and speculating on anyone, as long as it was necessary; you would not allow Metien to help them heal, you would always
He protected her very well, as if he was the only one under his own feathers
Only under your wings can she grow up healthily. Your style has changed too much, but it has changed in a weak direction. I heard Saint Xalia say that you have learned enough lessons from that incident, but is it true?
Is the so-called lesson just to make yourself more soft-hearted?"
She walked down the altar, approached Ringer step by step, and finally stopped just one step away from the young man. Her body leaned forward slightly, with sharp and alert pupils like a cat, looking from bottom to top.
Examining every change in the young man's expression, the latter seemed indifferent to this compulsive examination, and seemed to be at peace with the warm breath so close at hand. Gradually, the corners of Bai Ye's mouth curled up, and he smiled with some meaning.
"Stop hesitating, Ringer." She said softly: "You should learn to become more ruthless."
The young man finally responded: "Like Solomon?"
"No, it's like me."
Her eyes suddenly turned cold: "If you don't know what to do, I can always give you some advice on how to use the trust of the Ash Guerrilla people in you to continue to improve our reputation in the Eastern Continent.
Solomon praised you so highly
He is so high, he must have a plot, but what he plots, shouldn't we also plot it? Green El, the last king of elves, took the followers of the Goddess of Creation across the ocean and came to the Eastern Continent to continue the inheritance. That is what is called
the paradise land of Assyria. If we want
To fight against the Witch Association, we must find Assyria and gain the support of the Assyrians. But why do they support us? Just because we claim to be the reincarnation of the saint and the heir to the King of Elves? No one will
So innocent, Ringo,
So you need reputation, you need to turn Solomon's words into reality, and prove that you are the only one who can fight against the alliance of religious orders, so that they will trust you wholeheartedly, follow you, and place their hopes on you instead of hesitating.
Decision, hesitation."
Bai Ye slowly straightened up, letting the warm and scorching breath stay away from the young man's face. She raised her head and glanced at the half-open church door, the direction Carson Berg left, and sneered: "
Isn't that guy the best chess piece? He is against the witch
The hatred of the association does not even need to be controlled by us. It only needs to be given a little guidance to help us achieve our goals. It seems that fate has brought us here and has already pointed out the way forward. In this case, you still have
What's there to be hesitant about?"
After she finished speaking, she glanced at the young man provocatively, as if she was waiting for him to say something weak to refute her. But Linge didn't speak, he just stretched out his hand to wipe his cheek, wiping away the warm breath, and then
In a tone that made it difficult to hear his true emotions, he said calmly: "Thank you for your suggestion, I will think about it carefully."
Bai Ye anticipated all his reactions, either refuting her indifferently, or remaining silent, but none of the expected situations mentioned the scene in front of her, so the girl felt irritated for no reason and snorted coldly.
Said: "It's best this way."
"So," Lin Ge asked in a calm tone as if he couldn't hear her little emotion, "Judging from his performance just now, how much of what he said is sincere?"
"hehe."
Bai Ye just sneered: "A good old man like you made the right bet again."
100% truth and not a single falsehood.
Otherwise, how could she say that Carson Berg is a very suitable chess piece?
But this was a bit of a slap in the face, so Bai Ye would rather die than say it directly, and he didn't bother to see the young man's reaction afterwards, so he disappeared after saying this sentence. The gray-haired girl's pupils were blank for a moment.
, out of focus like a vast mist, until another consciousness gained control of the body, the fog in the eyes reunited, forming a gray ocean.
"Huh?" Gloria blinked: "Are you going back now? No dinner?"
Bai Ye in her mind replied in a sullen voice: "I don't have the hobby of eating with fools, idiots and bad people."
Gloria's first reaction was actually: "Who is the fool?"
I have already accepted that I am the fool.
This conversation was too juvenile. Bai Ye was too lazy to pay attention to her. Gloria waited for a long time without getting her answer. She couldn't help but muttered "Ignore me again", then raised her head and found that Ringer was still watching.
After looking at herself, she grinned, also smiling. But unlike Bai Ye's mysterious, cold and fatally attractive smile, this smile was very simple, or... there was a kind of pure stupidity in it.
.
"She ignored me." Gloria said with a smile: "Then let's ignore her. Let's go quickly. It's time for dinner, Ringer! Ah, Xiaobai, come here too. I'll take you to dinner.
!”
She turned around and stretched out her hand to the statue of the goddess. Xiaobai, the gray-feathered falcon, gave a soft cry, flapped its wings and circled in mid-air for a half circle before slowly falling down. However, it did not stop on the girl's outstretched arm, but lay on its back.
He put it on her head and used the gray hair as a nest. After adjusting the position, he lay down comfortably in it. If it were another owner, it would never dare to do this. This bird has always been
He is very smart and knows which attitude to adopt when facing which master.
"Don't mess up my hair." Gloria just warned, then turned back to Ringer and smiled: "Let's go?"
"kindness."
Ringer turned around and took her away from Tianxin Church and on the way back to the hotel. Along the way, Gloria looked very happy, humming unknown tunes and looking around, always trying to make herself
My eyes passed through the lights on the island, and I saw farther away, and saw what a strange scene the black forest in the Evernight Woodland was.
She is always so carefree and unaware of sorrow, perhaps because Bai Ye protects her very well.
Ringer thought of this and asked casually: "Gloria, how is your curse? Are there any signs of changing your identity recently?"
"It doesn't seem like it?" Gloria tilted her head. Since landing in the Eastern Continent, she has lost her pirate identity, but has not gained a new one. Even the girl herself doesn't know what she is now.
What is her identity? Maybe she is a girl with only a name, but no origin, no identity, and no background? But she does not worry about such trivial matters, as long as she can still be with Bai Ye, Linge, and Xiao Bai and still have time.
Everyone on the island is happy just to be together.
Lin Ge worriedly warned: "If there are any signs, you must tell us."
The situation in the area they are now in is very chaotic. It would be terrible if Gloria randomly gets that sensitive identity, such as a member of the Ashes Guerrilla, or simply a soldier of the Seventeenth Legion.
"Yeah, I won't cause any trouble to you."
Of course Gloria agreed wholeheartedly, and then asked enthusiastically: "By the way, Ringer, what kind of identity do you want me to become?"
This question... Ringer really hasn't thought about it. After all, this is the effect of the curse, and it's not that Gloria can change into whatever identity he wants Gloria to become. So he didn't know what to do for a while.
Answered. Fortunately, Gloria just asked casually and didn't take it to heart. In contrast, what she really wanted to share with the young man was another thing——
"Linge, don't take what Bai Ye said to heart just now."
"Well, I know."
"Although she said something very hurtful, she actually told me secretly that she doesn't hate your gentle personality. Do you know what it means to Bai Ye that she doesn't hate you?"
"have no idea."
Gloria smiled as cunningly as a fox, and Ringer shook his head honestly. At this time, Bai Ye had already had a premonition of something bad, and was about to take away control of her body, but her other personality could not wait to say
The answer came out: "It just means I like it very much!"
The air froze for a while.
then.
"G! Luo! Li! Ya!"
Where the young man could not hear, the girl's anger was burning.
