“…… So, is that all she wants you to tell me is this? ”

"Yes. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info well...... That's all she told me. ”

"Huh...... Why did it go back to that name? Never mind...... Just like that. ”

In the afternoon, the knight reported to her adoptive mother about the previous night, and the weather in June had begun to get hot, and even a demon king like the girl was starting to be too lazy to go out if it wasn't necessary...... Although she is in this state almost all year round.

"Adjustment...... Is it? Well, thank you, Lily, I probably already understand what she means, this is indeed a good way~ However, let's not mention that now, now I have a very important thing to ask you, be sure to answer me honestly. ”

At the same time as she said this, the girl sat with a serious face, and she couldn't tell that she was still lazy and dying half a second ago......

"Huh? Yes, Pray, sir. Pls what's the matter? ”

"That's right...... Lily, you ...... What do you think of your identity as a human being? ”

"Human ...... Is it? Pray, Lord Prayer, this ...... What does that mean more specifically? ”

The silver-haired knight looks a little confused, so there's nothing strange about being a human, right? So...... What does this mean exactly?

The girl sighed heavily. How so...... For her, she really doesn't know how to talk about this kind of thing......

"Okay...... I'll ask it differently. Lily, what do you think about longevity? ”

"Is life ......? I don't have any particular opinion...... After all, birth, old age, sickness and death are natural things. And...... It's too early to think about these things. ”

"Is it still early......?"

The girl smiled helplessly, she didn't know that for the sixteen-year-old party who was still in her prime, it was indeed too early to think about the question of life and death now...... Even if the other party is a member of a high-risk profession.

But how could this not be the case with young girls? When she first came to this world, she was the same age as the other party...... At that time, she was so anxious, she couldn't wait to return to that person in the next second...... When she first came here, she couldn't even imagine that she could stay in this world for so many years, and at that time, this unit would feel so long to her just thinking about it...... But if you really want to count it now, she can already be said to be Bensan's person, right? What's going on over there?

"Pray...... My lord? Pray? ”

"Ahh I don't know if it's old......? Lately I always remember some things from the past......"

"That...... Pray, you are still far from old age...... Generally speaking, I haven't heard of a king who has died at the end of his life...... Ah, sorry, I didn't mean that......"

Looking at the somewhat confused knight, the girl shook her head helplessly. Now she's different from when she was in the school city.,At that time, no matter how weak or flustered she was, she could do it.,Because she has people she can rely on.。 Can ...... now She is the object of being relied on by others, and she must be strong even if she forces herself at any time, otherwise, what will happen to those who rely on her?

"Okay, then I'll just say it. Lily, now, a normal magician can probably live to be about eighty years old, after all, there are many factors for unnatural death, but it can also be said to be a long life. As for the witch, it's easy to live to be more than 100 years old. So...... In that case, Lily, do you think that this is enough? Or is it ...... Do you want to live longer and become one of those species called immortals, which exist like the legends? ”

The knight began to frown and think, this was the first time she had seriously thought about these things. And...... Her adoptive mother asked her to answer honestly and seriously, which should be a very important thing.

The girl sat quietly and looked at each other gently. She knew that immortality or immortality was not a blessing or gift to human beings, and it could even be said to be a vicious curse. Aren't the vast majority of the immortals who possess the human mind - such as the Blood Clan - choose to commit suicide because of their long lifespan? She didn't want her daughter to try this kind of pain, so it was a must to ask these things now!

The child will have to be independent one day, and the girl may be able to give her the best of everything, and let her freely choose the life she wants, but she will never be forced to accept anything, if she wants to...... Then let her die peacefully in a hundred years as a human being. No matter how reluctant she is, she can't let her live in pain all the time...... These are the things that you must learn to accept and carry that you absolutely belong to the immortal life!

The girl looked at the other party's frowning appearance, shook her head, and felt that she was too anxious, there was no need to let the other party be so entangled now, she had not yet reached the age where she needed it, and it was too late to talk about these things later, and there was still plenty of time.

"Forget it, Lily...... There's no need to be so entangled, there's no need to answer in such a hurry. This kind of problem is ...... for everyone."

"I want to live longer, pray."

“…… It's tough. Lily, what did you just say? ”

The girl didn't react for a while, and even wondered if she had just had an auditory hallucination.

"I said I wanted to live longer, pray."

The earnest knight gave a serious answer, and in his short words there was a strong will, just as the maiden had seen her for the first time on the ship a few years ago. Looking at the other party's face, the girl suddenly seemed to see her who was telling her last words to herself with a serious face at that time, and she was also so serious at that time, as if she was ready to be fully conscious at every moment.

"Lily, though I see what you mean. But I still have to warn you...... This is not the right thing to do now. Immortality is not a good thing for humans, in other words...... The first thing you have to do to live forever is to abandon your identity as a human being. Including the previous way of thinking, living habits, even family and friends, and everything, in the end, you may even become the kind of person you used to be completely unimaginable...... Even so, you ...... Still willing? ”

"Yes, I've come to my senses. Because, right...... Mother, time ...... It's not something to care about, is it? Please don't try to deceive me, I can already see this in your attitude to life at every moment. ”

This time their positions were completely reversed, and the daughter stared at her mother's eyes with a serious face, wanting to get the most sincere answer from her mother.

“…… Scold. 'Thou hast destroyed the wings of time, Thou, the mysterious dweller of life, time has rolled up dust under thy feet, and Thou art eternal. You are the Lord of Light, the self-generated youth, the first birth of primitive life, the first name of nameless things. You are the princess of the years, your body is eternal, your form is endless, trampling the darkness below. The years turn back for you in the continuous past, and move brilliantly towards the end of time. Neither man, nor sanctified dead, nor even gods, can turn you back from the path of immortality. ’”

The girl turned to look out the window, chuckling, and singing the praises of God, which had been a mantra of praise to God, but now she had excerpted and placed it on herself.

"That's it~ You should know who this is used to praise. What I want to say is: I deserve this passage better than that person~"

"Yes...... I've got it all right. ”

The knight bowed his head, and it was also a shock to her. The short-lived human pursues, sings the praises of immortality, and for the man in front of her...... Immortality is nothing more than her past achievements, her current decoration.

"Okay~ So, I'd like to make one last confirmation. Lily...... Do you really want to do that? From the deepest part of your heart, are you really willing to give up everything you had as a human to live a long, if not endless, life ahead? ”

"Yes, I do."

It was still an unwavering voice, and the girl was really relieved at this moment.

"Okay~ So...... From now on, I'm going to give Lily a good make-up lesson~ Unlike in the past, this class will be very long - from a human perspective. I don't want you to regret this decision in the future, so if you don't satisfy me, the consequences will be serious, right? ”

"Yes! I've come to my senses, please rest assured! ”

The girl looked at the witch knight in front of her tenderly, and was proud of everything she had from the bottom of her heart. And now it seems that this is not the end of the other party...... I'm really looking forward to her future...... It must be brilliant, right?

Hey, hey, I haven't spoken for so long, girl, why did you suddenly enter the rhythm of the final words? Isn't this script right?

"Shut up...... You've ruined the good atmosphere! ”

Well, this is what I know~

"Alas...... What a shaking, you. ”

"Okay, Lily. So, let's start the first lesson now: slow down the pace of everything - this is the basis of all immortal life. Slow everything down, as slowly as you can, without affecting everything. Then carefully recall your past bit by bit, including all the things in the past, and think about it, if you were given a long life, would you still care about everything you cared about? When you've reviewed everything thoroughly until this moment, tell me what you've learned. ”

"Yes, I see."

The knight replied with a serious face. This is exactly what makes the girl very satisfied but not satisfied.,It's good to be serious.,But it's a guy who is too serious...... More or less not so suitable for immortality. Let's change it slowly in the future...... After all, this is not something that can be solved overnight.

"Tut-tut, do you really understand? Then why do you start reminiscing now~? Forgot the standard premise of slowing everything down~? There's still a lot to learn~"

"Ah...... I'm so sorry I forgot that......"

Looking at the little witch with a flushed face, the girl couldn't help laughing, and under the sunlight outside the house, her smile was like a flower.

“…… No, it doesn't have to be. I said that you still have a lot to learn~ Everything new is just the beginning for you......"

ps:I'm going to report tonight.,So I can't send it for a while after this chapter.,After all, you have to adapt to the new environment or something...... After that, I have to study hard or something. However, it's still okay to take out some time code words~ It's impossible to be decisive in the day~
