Chapter 16 The Calm Before the Disaster

I don’t know how long it took, but the sound of wood banging brought Yuexing back from her dream.

"Did you fall asleep without realizing it..." Yuexing looked at the blue sky in front of her

"Yes, it is"

A female voice came from the side

Yuexing raised her head slightly, and Rem appeared in her sight.

"Rem, I feel a little embarrassed to have you stay with me for so long. Are you tired?"

"No, Rem is not tired." Rem lowered his head and looked into Yuexing's eyes.

"I still feel a little sorry..." Yuexing's eyes turned to Crusch who was practicing sword practice.

"Yuexing is as quiet as a child when she sleeps."

"Yeah……"

"Yeah" Rem smiled.

Yuexing looked at the blue sky and said hesitantly

"That... Rem"

"Yes" Rem responded.

"What do you think of what we did this time? Did we do anything wrong? Or would it be better if I stopped Subaru from the beginning..."

"Rem thinks what Yuexing did is right and the right choice," Rem said.

"Really……"

"Um"

Yuexing looks at Rem

"Actually, Rem could have gone back to the mansion to stay with her sister, but now Roswaal asks you to stay and look after us, I'm sorry."

"That's not the case. Even without being ordered, Rem thinks that he will definitely stay with Yuexing."

"Why?"

"Because this is Rem's choice."

Yuexing was silent, looking at the blue sky in a daze

"Are you feeling a little upset?" Rem asked.

"Well... considering what happens next, I feel a little confused." Yuexing sighed.

"How about a knee pillow?" Rem said softly, with a slight blush on his face.

"Knee pillow?" Yuexing was startled.

"Yes, when Subaru was secretly crying at Roswaal Mansion, Emilia-sama did this to him."

"Crying? It seems that I am really under too much pressure. Ever since I came here..." Yuexing said with a bitter smile.

"At that time, I almost couldn't stand it anymore. After going through so much, I was still working hard for a good ending." I felt a little sad for no reason.

"Want to come?" Rem said softly.

"It's not very good, I've just grown up..."

"Hey, so is Rem."

Yuexing suddenly thought that he was born at the same time as Rem and others when he was in the ghost clan. In this case, he is really the same age, and he has to sigh at the wonder of time.

Yuexing smiled and raised her head

When it fell, it hit something soft and very elastic.

On the left side of the head is Rem's body

"how do you feel?"

"Phew...much better"

Rem gently brushed Yuexing's white hair with his hand.

"Have you grown black hair?" Yuexing asked

"Not yet……"

"All right"

"By the way, Yuexing had black hair before that time, but she also had white hair when she was little," Rem said doubtfully.

"I'm not sure anymore," Yuexing sighed.

"My eyes suddenly became melancholy," Rem said softly.

"I can't help but think about those sad things... Rem, what kind of person do you think I am?"

"I'm not usually very active, and my sense of presence is always low. Sometimes I look like a child who hasn't grown up like Subaru, at least that's what I see."

"It's true, it's very vivid, but if possible, I don't want to be such a person..."

"Then there must be some reason."

"tell you later"

"good"

Yuexing moved his gaze to Crusch, looking at the fierce sword skills

"The future is a bit confusing."



In the early morning, after practicing sword skills with Wilhelm's company, they met Rem and Subaru holding a lot of things on their way back to the lobby.

"You went out early in the morning? No wonder I didn't see you."

"Yes, I bought something." Rem walked over holding two large bags of food.

Yuexing stepped forward and took a bag from Rem's arms without any explanation.

"Hey, by the way, I also met Uncle Cadmon," Subaru said, raising the Ling Guo he was holding.

"Cadmon? The lingo shop owner?"

"Yes, he asked me nervously what happened to Mr. Rom, why he helped me deliver a letter but he couldn't be contacted by future generations, or something like that."

"and after?"

"Let's go to Reinhardt's house."

"It's okay. It's still early now. Mr. Wilhelm is still there. Do you want to come and practice sword practice?" Yuexing asked.

"Practice for a while, there's nothing to do now anyway."

Subaru walked over and saw the notebook in Yuexing's hand.

"This...book has been changed again, is it possible?" Subaru looked at it and said

"That's right, the last book is already full." Yuexing nodded.

"This... this is the fourth book now, right? You have researched so many things in one month, and you are still practicing swordsmanship and reading books at the same time. How can you make those decades-old magicians feel so embarrassed?"

"People in different worlds may have different understandings, and of course there are differences in calculation methods."

"Did you use your mobile phone to do the math? If so, your phone would have run out of battery." Subaru shrugged.

"Mobile phone? Nowadays, I don't use my mobile phone very much except for taking pictures and relaxing." Maybe he shook his head.

"Then what did you use to calculate? Did you write it by hand? That's too exaggerated."

"Have you forgotten that I have this?" Yuexing knocked on his head

Subaru was confused for a while, then fell silent.

"You're cheating," Subaru shouted to Yuexing.

"You don't have to be a fool if you have something good? It's funny." Yuexing curled her lips.

"Then... just keep working hard and let me see you then." Subaru said and walked towards the hall.

"Subaru, I've been a little irritable lately," Rem said, looking up at Subaru.

"Yeah, it's been almost a month and I still haven't gone back. It's normal."

A few days ago, Crusch called Subaru to the third floor alone and had a long chat, during which he even mentioned marriage.

Subaru roughly told Yuexing about this matter. Judging from the words and expressions during the conversation, Yuexing always felt that Subaru had something else that he had not said.

"Speaking of Rem, how is your learning magic with Felice going?" Yuexing asked.

During the king's election, I specifically mentioned this matter to Felice, and Crusch also specifically talked to Yuexing about this.



"Yuexing, what you said is true, right?" Crusch sat in front of Yuexing and said seriously

"I can assure you, it's just that I don't know the specific time right now. If you lied or something, Master Crusch can also know it," Yuexing shrugged.

"I hope you can also understand the importance of this matter to him."

"Even if you don't believe me, you still have to believe in your blessing. This thing can't lie, can it?" Yuexing said lightly.

"Indeed, although I don't know where Yuexing got the information, and all you need is Felix's magic guidance, but I am willing to believe in you, and at the same time, I also believe in the person beside you." Crusch nodded.

"Does that mean Tokisaki Yumu?"

"Yes, I can see that he and you are partners. You can be recognized and trusted by the dragon. You have too many secrets, but you have to be believed." Crusch sighed.

"Although the facts are roughly the same as this, what does it matter? Let's work together for that day to come. After all, it is an existence that cannot be underestimated." Yuexing waved his hand.

"Well, for that day, I will be fully prepared to face this fierce battle," Crusch said seriously

"Well, for him, for everyone, and for myself," Yuexing responded seriously.



"Yuexing, do you want to study magic today?" Rem asked

"No, I've done enough research these days, so I plan to take a rest today."

"It's a pity that Rem can't do anything to help. I can only watch from the side, and I can't understand the words you used..." Rem said and sighed softly.

"Although you are really embarrassed to refuse if you want to watch from the side, but if you fall asleep on my bed...you can't blame me," Yuexing smiled.

"Hey, I fell asleep while chatting. I don't know why every time Rem wakes up, Yuexing always sits on the chair and reads notes. Rem's body is obviously still warm.

..." Rem's eyes stared straight at Yuexing, who blushed.

"Hmm...I don't know either." Yuexing looked at the courtyard outside the hall in embarrassment.

"So is today's plan to exercise?" Rem asked.

"In this case...what do you think of the effect of my training this month?"

Rem looked at Yuexing up and down.

"Well...Rem thinks it's quite effective. He looks much stronger than before."

"It looks like this," Yuexing nodded with satisfaction.

"Then Rem, go and do your work first. We'll talk later," Yuexing said.

"OK"

Rem picked up Lingguo at his feet and walked to the kitchen.

Yuexing came to the courtyard, looked around, found a piece of slightly raised grass, and basked in the sun comfortably.

The lawns here are very clean and tidy, so it is unlikely that your clothes will get dirty.

Yuexing closed her eyes and thought about another conversation with Crusch



He put the notes away from the table, stood up and stretched, took out his phone and looked at it. It was now around ten o'clock in the evening.

Yue

When Yuexing turned around on the lawn, she found that Rem's room was not lit, but Subaru's room was lit.

"I must be teaching writing, haven't you mastered it after all this time?"

Yuexing himself is already proficient in using the words here, but Subaru's progress is a little slow.

The night wind felt comfortable on my body, and I didn't feel cold at all, so I simply sat down.

Listen to the wind blowing by your ears and the chirping of insects. These are things you can't feel in a big city.

"Are you still up so late?" A female voice came from behind.

"...Krusiu?" Yuexing turned around and said in surprise

"Yes, what? Is there something strange about it...ah, this is like this. This is the first time I've seen you without working."

Crusch took off the military uniform-like clothes he usually wore, and was now wearing a black thin pajamas and a shawl. It gave people a completely different feeling from the serious military uniform before.

"Aren't you the same, it's so late?" Yuexing looked into the distance and said

"The work is a little longer tonight, let's do some exercise."

"Are you busy with the king's selection?" Yuexing asked

"Oh? As a political opponent...well, forget it, that's what it is." Crusch replied

"Political opponents, they think too highly of me. After all, I have never stated which camp I support." Yuexing shrugged.

"To be honest, I'm quite optimistic about you among the candidates," Yuexing said.

"Oh? Then what do you want to say?"

"It is a good idea to get rid of the long-term dependence on others and achieve great development through one's own efforts, and it is not difficult to put it into practice, but"

"But?" Crusch asked doubtfully?

"A people who have lived by dragons for hundreds of years will not change so easily."

"Supporting the entire country based on the words of the Dragon Calendar Stone is inherently very fragile, and your speech has indeed touched the interests of a large number of people, which means that your road to power will be full of bumps."

"Besides, the contract signed by the dragon and the late king is not that simple, right?" Yuexing said slowly

"..." Crusch looked at Yuexing in silence

"So you urgently need something that can convince everyone, enough to make them trust you, and something that can fully prove your strength. Then my information becomes even more indispensable, right?"

Yuexing looked up at the sky and said with emotion

"Sometimes, everything is just as destined, full of countless coincidences. Even if you don't want to do it, the facts are right in front of you, and you have to affirm the meaning of its existence."

"What you said makes sense. Just like when I become a candidate, even though I don't know what the road ahead will be like, I still have to keep going." Crusch also raised his head and looked at the sky.

"Perhaps, being with you, Yuexing, is not a bad thing."
