Chapter 7: A Night for Two (Part 1)

Life is a long journey for Arashi, who travels between two worlds. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info also met some people, got to know them, and then waved goodbye, maybe never to be seen.

In this body, which looks like he is about twenty years old, because of the many things he has experienced, there is a sense of maturity that does not match his appearance. The Ark is a magical place, no matter how many years he has lived in the previous world and what he has become, when he finally goes back, he will rejuvenate his body, eighteen years old, and the time that belongs to Arashi will always be eighteen years old!

To a certain extent, Arashi, who is also 'loved' by fate, once again realized the true meaning of the phrase 'things happen in a way that people themselves don't expect'.

The half-moon hung high in the night sky, and in its light the stars dimmed and the flowing clouds became clear. Arashi looked at his hand, there was wine. Looking at Emilia who had just showered and sat on her knees, there was a woman.

The evening breeze blew the girl's long silver hair, revealing the white skin of her neck, and the girl in a lilac nightdress was as holy as a goddess.

Because of Parker's persuasion, Emilia finally stayed behind and noticed Arashi's gaze and smiled softly at the side, "Arashi, what are you thinking?"

"No, I'm just lamenting the magic of fate. ”

In the Rogue Walk, Arashi, who had spent three days and three nights in Kabukicho with an out-of-tune swordsman, seemed to realize that this was the first time he had been alone with a woman under the same roof.

"Quirky. Emilia muttered.

Arashi smiled at Emilia's evaluation, picked up a bottle of wine and handed it to her, and asked, "Do you want to drink it?"

"Huh?!I...... I'm not very good at drinking!" Emilia was a little confused by the flush on her fair skin.

"Oh. ”

Lan, who was originally asked casually, didn't force it, he always wouldn't force others to do things he wasn't good at. The left hand holding the bottle was pulled by another force on the way back, and it stopped in mid-air.

Arashi looked strangely at Emilia, her hand holding the end of the bottle.

"That's it...... You can only drink it...... A bottle cap. Emilia blushed and looked away. But I saw the shadows that belonged to the two of them, two independent oblique shadows illuminated by the moonlight, and the wine bottles that connected each other's hands were infinitely reduced, and from Amilia's point of view, it was like she reached out and held Arashi.

"Good. ”

Although it was strange that Emilia's cheeks were getting redder, Arashi agreed. "If you can only drink one bottle cap......"

"No, I mean a bottle. The girl who hung her head whispered shyly, "I just said something wrong." ”

"Oh"

Arashi nodded, and handed the opened bottle back to Emilia, and the two of them groaned silently at the same time, and the moonlight was as quiet as water, shining on the lower half of their bodies.

"Is it okay to live alone in the royal capital?"

Arashi smiled at the girl's question.

"It's all good, I'm used to it. ”

"How can you get used to being alone, man, you need companions. Emilia, who was clearly misunderstood, said solemnly, "like...... It's like...... I'm with Parker. Before I met Parker, I was living alone in the village, and I felt very lonely. ”

"It's okay, it's all gone. ”

"Well, when Rozval found me, I thought this man was a weirdo, hehe. Speaking of this, Emilia smiled embarrassedly, "Why do you have the audacity to ask others to participate in the king's election?" But at that time, I was very happy, because I didn't live alone, and I would be needed and asked for help. ”

Emilia grabbed her windswept hair with her small hands, curled up in a ball and leaned against a nearby post. "As soon as I walked out of the village, I realized that the people I met seemed to hate me, or that they were afraid of me, and I slowly learned about the troubles that come with half-elven blood. ”

"It's sad, but sometimes it's happy. Because I feel that I am really living in the world at that time, I will be sad to be hated, I will be happy to be liked, I will be confident in myself when I am needed, and the more I want to let the other party understand me. ”

"Wouldn't it be strange for me to say these things all of a sudden. ”

Realizing her reckless nonsense, Emilia was a little afraid to look at her partner.

"No, didn't you tell anyone else these things?"

"Well, I don't want everyone to worry about me. After saying this, Emilia quickly covered her mouth again and explained in a panic: "No, no, I don't mean that Arashi won't worry about me...... It's not ......"

"I know, I know. Lan smiled and comforted, in fact, the girl said yes, he really wouldn't worry, "You are very much like someone I know." ”

"Someone you know?!" Emilia looked at Arashi in surprise, could it be that he had ever met someone who was also a half-elf?

"Well, but he's worse than you, hahahaha, that hot-blooded idiot. Arashi laughed and took a sip of her wine.

"What's worse than me, stupid Lan, how is he now?"

"That idiot has become a leader who is recognized by all his friends. With her hands folded behind her head, Arashi looked at the moonlight in the sky.

"Really?" Emilia stared at Arashi in disbelief.

Arashi nodded, and said slowly in a tone full of nostalgia: "Since he was very young, he has worked firmly towards his goal, no matter what difficulties he encounters, he will never waver or retreat. To be honest, even I admire him very much. ”

"Is it someone Arashi would admire too?" it's hard to imagine......" Emilia reacted exaggeratedly.

"Ma Ma, this is the only sentence, please don't take it seriously, it's just an exaggerated statement to increase the persuasiveness. ”

Listening to Arashi's explanation, Emilia laughed, and then lowered her voice and said, "Thank you." ”

"Drink bar. Arashi lifted the bottle, shook it twice at the girl, and took two sips.

There was a moment of silence between the two, and a subtle atmosphere emanated through the air, like an unknown scent in the evening breeze that made people dizzy, and it was impossible to distinguish whether it was the body fragrance of the girl after washing or the fragrance of flowers blooming at the foot of the wall.

"The two of you are secretly hiding that I'm drinking!!" The red lotus, who was wearing an exaggerated and crooked nightcap on her head and was washed all over her body, came behind the two of them at some point, and her angry shouts broke the silence at the moment.

"Ah, I'm sorry, Red Lotus, I forgot ......"

"No, big sister, you don't have to apologize. Honglian glared at Lan fiercely, "You bastard, I treat you as my brother in vain, you didn't do anything strange to the eldest sister." ”

"Oh, earth dog, it's summer. ”

"Hmph, waste, forgive me for having a thief's heart and no thief's guts!" Honglian raised her chin proudly.

"It seems to be subtly despised by a dog. Arashi kneaded her chin.

"Big sister, let's go, let's go back to the room and drink slowly. Red Lotus turned her head to Emilia and smiled.

"Huh......" Emilia looked at the red lotus in her footsteps, and looked at the Arashi in front of her.

"Go, go, I'm going to get ready to rest. Arashi smiled and waved.

"Okay. Emilia nodded, got up and picked up the red lotus and walked towards the house, "Arashi, good night." ”

Looking up at the brilliant night sky, Arashi whispered in a tone that she could only hear, "Good night." ”
