Chapter 184: Desire
When they first met, Flowey was very friendly and let Qian Rui hold her tail. But as soon as she came into contact, all the warm memories of Huahua were awakened by reality, so she immediately got rid of the entanglement. Qian Rui started the game she had been missing for a long time again.
Flowey seemed to lie quietly in Bran's arms, but her figure flickered when she couldn't dodge. Even in the square inch, as long as Huahua didn't want to, Bran couldn't guess who else in this world could catch him.
After some tossing, Siri finally shifted her target and clung to the hem of Bran's clothes. Bran stared at the little hand speechlessly, is this going to make a fuss?
In the past year or so, Qian Rui has grown up a lot and learned a lot, such as temptation. After making a fuss for a long time, he found that the fourth brother was still the same, so he began to make requests. For example, he wants to learn how Bran condenses magic in his body and learn his skills of killing people silently. The former Bran readily agreed, while the latter simply refused. The reason made Qian Rui speechless, she was still too young, and she would talk about it when she grew up.
It's not an excuse, in Bran's opinion, control is the key. If Serirui can't control them, it will be a disaster. And for a child to learn to control, Bran felt funny. But you can train in advance, for example, teach her to listen.
Later, Bran feels like he's done something stupid, and he's entangled by his sister. And the people around them also consciously stopped disturbing the brother and sister.
Family dinners are always attended, and although Bran was frightened by this kind of thing, he sat down at the table uncomfortably. At this point, Schille stopped pestering and loosened Bran's placket.
It wasn't long before Bran felt the warmth of home.
If this was called a family feast, Bran decided not to attend it again. Sitting in the noisy hall, Bran finally remembered that according to the simple interpersonal relationships of the Northland, there was no one who was not a member of family.
Bran was homesick in the midst of the noise. At home, Dani would be quietly with him, and people would eat quietly. Under his influence, the people in the family have become accustomed to quiet. After the meal, everyone will casually chat about some interesting things.
Now, people here are munching and saliva. Lily's hearty laughter drowned out all the sounds from time to time, and rang in Bran's ears. Fortunately, there is a sister, at least she attracts most of the attention.
Bran sat in silence, his presence getting lower and lower, just as he had been when he was a child. There were also elders who tried to communicate with him, but when they looked at him, they involuntarily changed their minds. The idea of polite greetings was instantly replaced by the truest emotions.
But magic is not a panacea, and some children are gradually coming together. They are mostly out of curiosity, and the curiosity becomes very strong under some kind of stimulus. Children are not creatures that can act by will, so Bran, after getting rid of some of his hypocrisy, is surrounded by genuine passion.
Self-inflicted!" Bran lamented in his heart.
After a family feast, Bran's popularity among the children soared! His image plummeted in the hearts of the elders! Most of them reacted that Bran must have done something. But this kind of thing without evidence is really hard to say.
The main thing is that there is a fear in my heart, no one will like a wizard who can manipulate people's hearts. Bran's surroundings fell silent for a moment, even the children were admonished.
And Bran was also a sensible child, and he disappeared in front of people.
......
Adam walked towards the old tree in the courtyard, where Schille was sitting alone. This gave him the illusion that he had seen Bran in the Lodge.
Adam sighed, as if Lily, Bran, and Siri were the real siblings. When you look at them individually, you don't feel anything, but when the brothers sit together, some of the common qualities of the three of them are revealed.
After seeing Bran again, Adam felt like he was at ease. Bran hasn't changed much, at least in terms of personality. Still used to being alone, I hate the hustle and bustle. He already knew about the rumors here, and some people even came to him for verification. That's what Bran wants, a quiet person.
At that time, I always wanted to intervene in his actions and correct his behavior, but I didn't expect to disturb the peace he wanted most. At that time, I was too young to understand many things. For more than a year, in the constant struggle and thinking, he gradually figured out some things.
The brothers don't have to be too entangled, just as Bran once suggested that he explore the banks of Perpetual River. It's just a suggestion, but it doesn't point fingers. But he didn't take a step forward except for the storm in the city. But Bran quietly prepared, acted silently, and moved forward step by step according to his plan.
If I had been able to strengthen my faith at that time, would everything have been different?
He could see that Qian Rui was ambitious, and in a few years, his youngest sister would definitely go out.
Coming under the tree, Adam asked softly, "Bran, are you there?"
Qian Rui opened her eyes and gave her eldest brother a strange look. The fourth brother Bran is not here, she has not found him in the past two days, and even his sister is looking for him everywhere, so he doesn't believe that the eldest brother can find anything.
Adam looked at his sister's eyes and explained with a little embarrassment: "He has always used to sitting under a tree when he was at home, and I have something to do now, so I came over and asked." ”
"In. A voice rang out, relieving Adam of his embarrassment.
Sirry sprang to her feet and lunged in the direction where the sound had come from, and after crashing into a warm embrace, Bran emerged holding her in her arms.
Bran put down his sister and scratched his head, there was really nowhere to hide. The elf's home is also his home, and as long as his sister doesn't come here to rummage around at home, he will definitely not be found. It's just that......
Bran glanced at Adam with a slight resentment.
Adam spread his hands, "I think of something, but I'm afraid you'll leave at any time." ”
After thinking about it, Adam continued, "I've noticed the change in Sirri, so I wanted to ask if we could too. ”
Bran was silent for a while, and then took a long breath before he said, "Things are not that simple, and they can't be considered from the strength of an individual. I, Lily, and the little wizards' bodies are all undergoing some changes.
What am I now?"
Bran pointed at himself, distressed, worried, and his expression was very complicated.
"My body has changed so much that I don't even know if I'll be able to have offspring as an adult. If you look at Huahua now, you should think of some things, has he ever had courtship?
I do not believe that after gaining such great power, it is possible to pay nothing. ”
Bran looked at Adam seriously, "I can't, and I don't dare to let too many people get into it before the results." ”
Speaking of this, Bran smiled, "I promise, if everything is fine, I will train your child to become a great wizard." And you need to marry and have children sooner so that our bloodline continues.
We have too few people in the Northland, and we have the strength to conquer the territory, but we don't have the strength to send people to occupy it. There are only a dozen Northlanders in my Northland city.
We need people, many, many people, and that's the most important task. ”
