Chapter 14: Parting
White Night hugged Aina and Xia Li with each hand on his back, and behind him was the burning castle. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Half of the sky was lit up by the dazzling firelight, and it was so bright that it wouldn't be long before someone noticed something unusual here.
"You have to take advantage of the fact that there is no one now, hurry back and do it again, otherwise it will be troublesome again........"
Bai Ye sighed helplessly, and after finding the unconscious Aina and Xia Li, Bai Ye took the two out of the castle after resting for a while and recovering some strength.
Then, another fire was set to burn the disgusting place.
Now he should sneak away, take Aina and Xia Li back to their house, and then pretend that he doesn't know anything, and then tell a lie by the way, and he can solve this matter.
"Well, but it's still not suitable for staying here for a long time......."
A helpless smile pulled out at the corner of his mouth, and Bai Ye disappeared into the night with two people in his arms.........
―――――――――――――――――――――――――
"Huh? Where is it? ”
Aina opened her sea-blue eyes, which were still a little sleepy, and looked at the familiar environment in front of her with some confusion.
She remembered that she and her mother were preparing dinner at home, waiting for Saya-sama to return.
But suddenly, a group of people broke in, and a tall man with a hideous face knocked himself and his mother unconscious.
Then, then she woke up to find that she had returned home.
That's right! Where's Mother?!
Aina got up in a bit of a panic, and then felt something bulge in the quilt next to her.
When I opened the futon and looked at it, I found that Xia Li was sleeping peacefully at this time, and she was still talking in a daze dream.
"Hmm! Aina, come to Mommy's bowl! ”
It must be a very warm dream.......
Ignoring some words that seemed to be important, Aina looked at her mother with a gentle look and a smile.
"Hey, hey! Little Aina will always be her mother's, and no one can snatch her! Hey, hey, hey......"
The saliva at the corners of her mouth flowed inadvertently, and Mrs. Charlie seemed to be having some bad dreams at this time.
Well, when I just didn't think about anything.
Aina helped her forehead a little helplessly, feeling that she had a headache.
Sure enough, the daughter is in the late stage of control or something, and she is no longer saved........
Quietly draped the quilt over her mother's body, Aina walked out of the room softly, she was going to figure something out.
If you say Saya-sama, you should know what's going on.
With this in mind, after Aina walked out of the door, she planned to go to the room of the white night to inquire.
But unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out of the door, he saw Bai Ye standing at the door of his house and watching something.
"Saya-sama, what are you looking at?"
"Oh, it's nothing, it's just that there's a fire over there."
"Fire?"
Aina followed the white night's gaze and found that the ancient castle in her town was actually engulfed in a fire at this time.
"Isn't that where the foreign nobles in the town live, why did it catch fire?"
"Well, who knows....."
Bai Ye said lightly, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
"Yes, yes."
Aina nodded subconsciously, suddenly not knowing what to ask.
"So, that, Saya-sama, do you know what happened before?"
Aina asked cautiously, she always felt that what had happened to her mother before, as well as the burning castle, had a connection with the young man in front of her.
"Before, when I got home, the house was in a mess, and neither of you were there."
"Then a masked man brought you back, saying that he had rescued you from a group of people."
"And then, the man disappeared and said he was going to deal with a bunch of people or something."
"By the way, where have you been taken, what has happened, and what has happened?"
Aina looked at the worried look of the young man in front of her, and she didn't know why she was a little sad in her heart.
Why are you lying, Saya-sama, are you afraid of causing us trouble.........
Aina's heart knew very well that the previous incident was probably done by the foreign nobleman in the castle.
This has happened many times before.
The people of the town were outraged by such an act, but due to the power of the nobleman's men, they had to swallow it.
So, even if something really happened to that nobleman, the people of the town would be happy.
Because, that castle was originally left in the town a long time ago, and it was only after the foreign nobles arrived here that it was occupied.
However, Bai Ye didn't know all this.
He only knew that, no matter what, the time had come for him to leave.
Whether it's for herself, or for Aina and Xia Li's mother and daughter.
"Sister Aina, I'm going to leave tomorrow. After all, I still have some things to do. ”
"Thank you and Aunt Xia Li for taking care of you these days, I will definitely repay you when I have the opportunity in the future."
"yes, yes, that's right, Saya-sama has her own business. So, please have a good rest tonight and recuperate. ”
Aina smiled a little reluctantly, feeling that her nose suddenly became a little sour, and her heart was empty.
"Well, I will, Sister Aina, you can rest too. After all, after that......"
As if he hadn't noticed anything, Hakuya responded with a smile.
"Well, then I'll go back to rest, please go to bed early."
Bai Ye looked at Aina's somewhat declining back, and couldn't help but sigh again.
I'm sorry, Sister Aina, at least for now, I am not fit to stay here with you, after all, my [desire] cannot do this.
So please treat all this as a dream........
Bai Ye glanced at Aina's room with some bitterness, and then didn't think about anything anymore, and went back to his room to sleep.
Calm nights, however, some people's minds do not seem to be calm........
―――――――――――――――――――――――――
"Well, did you really decide to leave, Saya."
In front of some simple houses, the beautiful wife was a little reluctant to look at the young man in front of her.
"Ah, I'm sorry, Aunt Charlie. But I had some things to deal with. ”
Bai Ye looked at each other apologetically, to be honest, he didn't hate that kind of comfortable and leisurely life, but this was not the life he wanted the most.
"Yes, then I wish you a pleasant trip, Night, and be careful."
"Well, I will, by the way, what about Sister Aina?"
Hearing Bai Ye's inquiry, Xia Li glanced at the young man in front of her with some confusion, and then spoke slowly.
"Aina, that child, seems reluctant to part with Xiao Ye, and doesn't want to come to see you."
"Yes."
Bai Ye smiled helplessly, then took out something from his arms and handed it to Xia Li.
It was the dagger he had always kept close to his side, used to protect against special situations.
"Please help me give this to Sister Aina, and please tell her that I will miss her."
Bai Ye paused, and after thinking for a while, he finally spoke.
"Please reassure her that I will definitely come back to her when I finish something."
Looking at the seriousness in the eyes of the young man in front of her, Xia Li couldn't help but smile.
"I understand, I'll tell her word for word. I also hope that Xiao Ye can always remember this promise. After all, that kid is really reluctant to let you go. ”
"Yes, yes, yes!"
As if he could foresee the future, Bai Ye said with a confident smile.
Promise or something, shouldn't you swear to keep it as a man?
After finally saying goodbye to Xia Li, Bai Ye slowly left under the eyes of his wife and wife.
Unexpectedly, the conversation he had with Xia Li before had already been heard by a fourteen-year-old girl hiding behind the door.
Hawkers, Saya-sama, this stupid!
Unable to bear it any longer, Aina immediately broke down the door and shouted at the white night where the back had not disappeared in the distance.
"Saya-sama! I'll be waiting for you to come back! So feel free to do what you want! ”
Bai Ye, who had already walked away, suddenly heard Aina's shout, and almost fell on the spot.
Big, adult?! This stupid girl actually exposed me at this time!!
On the other side, outside the humble house, Xia Li was looking at Aina with a "gentle" face, her eyes full of "love".
"Now, Aina, can you tell your mother what 'Saya-sama' is all about?"
"Want, one, five, one, ten, say it!"
Aina looked at her mother's face that seemed to be a little blackened with some horror, and couldn't help but exclaim.
"Oops, no, I accidentally said it."
As a result, the girl who occasionally took off the line finally felt the fear of being "loved" by her mother again today.
