Chapter Three: Meaning of Existence
Rayna returned to her lab with a pale face, and the reappearance of the Blood Demon Crystal made her tremble with fear. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoShe will never forget the scene when the person she loves the most is red-eyed and wants to kill her. She hugged him tightly, letting the vines whest on her back, the pain of blood gushing out was far less than the emotion gushing out of her heart. But even so, the people in front of her couldn't hear her cries and couldn't feel her despair. At the moment when her consciousness was about to disappear, she even felt that being killed by the person she loved the most was not morbid happiness?
When she opened her eyes again, she felt as if her body was stuffed with cotton, and her whole body was so soft that she couldn't even hear what the young lady was shouting to herself with red eyes. Everything seemed so far away, but she knew she was still alive, even if she had broken her spine and broken her wings, she still survived.
When she woke up, she looked for Seron like crazy. deaf to Miss's countless apologies, why did Gou survive instead of him? Relna's injuries hadn't healed yet, and she couldn't afford to toss like this. Mademoiselle stayed with her until she accepted the fact that Seron was dead. However, Relna has not forgotten, and she cannot forget. She had only sealed her fear of the Blood Demon Crystal to the deepest part of her memory, and today's words made her open the forbidden box again.
Kate walked into the laboratory with the tea, and was shocked to see Rayna lying on the table with a pale face, and hurriedly put the tea set aside, ran over in three steps and two steps, and squatted down in front of her.
"The hosts! What's wrong with you? Kate held her shoulders to prevent her from falling out of her wheelchair.
ā...... Kate...... I'm fine, I just have a bit of a headache......"
ā...... Could it be that you're remembering it again? ā
Relna nodded, and sat back in her wheelchair with Kate's strength. "I'm sorry Kate, can you get me some sedatives?"
"Okay." After Kate made sure that Raina would not fall, she opened the huge cabinet behind her, took out a small bottle from the third floor, poured out two white pills and placed them on the small saucer, and poured another cup of hot water and handed it to Rainna.
Reelna, who swallowed the pill in one gulp, took two deep breaths and forced herself to calm down. But from the way she hugged herself, it was not difficult to see that she trembled from the bottom of her heart.
"I'm sorry Kate, I'm fine."
"Shall I push you back to your room to rest?"
Raina shook her head: "No, gather the raw materials you need as soon as possible." ā
"But ........"
"Kate!" Rayna interrupted him, and seeing the worried look on his face, she smiled softly and reached out to touch his head. "Kate, I'm fine, and now that you're by my side, I'm very satisfied."
"Master......" Kate threw herself into Relna's arms and hugged her tightly.
Relna gently patted him on the back with one hand and stroked his head with the other. The afternoon sun shone on the two of them, blurring layers of light called happiness.
Xiutru opened his eyes, although it was a strange room and a strange ceiling, but it was very comfortable. How long has it been since you've had a good night's sleep like this? He closed his eyes again and stretched wide. The muscle pain seems to have eased a lot. The sunset was warm on the blanket, and he couldn't help but want to sleep again.
"Huh? Sunset? ā
He jerked off the blanket and sat up from the bed, greeted by Guviyi looking at him with a smile on his face.
"Did you sleep well?"
ā...... Forehead? I...... How did I fall asleep! Yes! Still in Mr. Guwiy's room!! He tried to get out of bed, but Guvii held him down on the shoulder.
"It doesn't matter. It's been a long time since you've had a good rest, right? What do you think? Does it still hurt anywhere on your body? ā
ā...... Well...... Feeling better after a good night's sleep. It seems that the muscles don't hurt anymore! ā
"Hehehe, that's good." Guviy turned and walked over to the hanger and took off the blazer that hung on it.
"I'm so sorry, Mr. Guwiy!" Shotru got out of bed and said to Guviyi, who was getting dressed, "I don't ...... Mr. Guviyi because of me."
"It's okay Xiutru, I originally planned to use this time to finish the work that Miss didn't finish, and I can let you sleep well, wouldn't it be a good thing to kill two birds with one stone?"
ā......ā
Guviyi, who was dressed in a suit, straightened his tie, walked up to Shotru, pressed his other hand on his shoulder, and said seriously: "Shotru, it is very important for a deacon not only to do his best to assist his master, but also to manage his own health. So I'm not going to allow that to happen because I'm overworked. Got it? ā
"Yes! Teacher Guwiy, I'll remember! ā
"Very good, then you will tidy up your appearance in the room first, and then go and wake up the young lady." Guviyi's eyes drifted down.
Shutru lowered his head only to find that his tie had been pulled to his chest at some point, and most of the buttons of his white shirt had been unbuttoned, revealing his collarbone and a large patch of white skin.
"Ahhh He blushed and grabbed his collar with his hand, and fled from Gouwii's room as fast as he could.
Dressed in a well-dressed room, Xiutru came to the young lady's room and knocked on the door, but sure enough, there was no response. He sighed helplessly and pushed open the door to his room.
The setting sun has retracted its afterglow and sunk into the horizon. The room with the curtains closed was dark, and Shotru closed his eyes in the doorway for a few seconds to adjust to the light in the room. There were scattered clothes on the sofa, and it seemed that the young lady fell asleep directly in the inner lining of her skirt. He approached the large bed against the wall, where several ancient books were placed haphazardly.
ā...... Miss? Shutru spoke tentatively, but the man wrapped in the blanket showed no sign of waking up. He took a few steps closer, but he couldn't tell which was the head and which was the tail of the blanket-wrapped sphere in front of him. In desperation, he could only pat her lightly a few times, trying to wake her up.
The orb finally reacted, and the blanket lifted a corner, revealing Miss's long blond hair. The ancient books on the bed also fell to the ground because of her movements.
ā...... Don't ......" Miss seemed to be dreaming, her eyes were closed, her long eyelashes were moist, and she was muttering something. Shotru leaned closer to hear clearly, only to find a tear running through the corner of her eye.
ā...... Relna ...... I'm sorry....... Ceron ...... Right...... Not ......"
Shut down his lip with a pained expression. After learning the cause and effect of the incident from Guviyi, he felt more and more sympathy for the girl in front of him, who was even blaming herself in her sleep. He gently stroked Miss's head and whispered softly in her ear: "It's okay Miss, I will be by your side, and I will always be by your side...... So ......"
He wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with his fingers, and the young lady in the dream, as if hearing his words, stretched out a hand from the blanket and grasped the thumb of Shutru tightly, and her expression gradually softened.
ā...... Not...... Gouwiy ...... "The young lady, who had not even opened her eyes, whispered the name of her deacon, instinctively approached the warm creature at the bedside, hugged him, and buried her face in his arms.
His expression was a little sad when he heard that the young lady was not calling by his own name, but it was soon replaced by endless tenderness. He hugged the petite body in his arms who couldn't restrain the trembling, smelled the faint fragrance emanating from her, wrapped one hand around her waist, stroked her smooth long hair with the other, and whispered in her ear: "Don't be afraid, I'm here, don't be afraid." ā
Xiutru really wished that time could stop at this moment forever, but the body in his arms gradually stopped trembling, and he let go of the young lady with some unfinished thinking.
Night had completely fallen, and the only light in the hallway was the light in the hallway, but it wasn't necessarily too far away. In the dimly lit room, the already awake young lady sat on the bed and rubbed her eyes, not realizing at all how much visual impact she would bring to Xiutru in her disheveled clothes. She yawned heavily, and looked with interest at Xiutru, who was blushing as if he was about to drip blood.
"Little ...... Miss...... Horse...... Dinner soon......"
"Well, I'm awake. So...... What are you shy about? The young lady looked at him with a smile.
"Ah...... No...... It's nothing...... I...... I'll wake you up......" Shut Tru's voice grew quieter, and he probably didn't even know what he was talking about.
"What are you?" The young lady grabbed him by the tie and pulled him in her direction. "I can't hear what you're saying."
"......" Xiutru, whose face was flushed, looked blankly at the face of the young lady who was close at hand, and was speechless.
The more restrained the young lady was, the more obvious the smile in her eyes became, and she blew into Xiutru's crimson ears, and finally couldn't help laughing when she looked at the other party's panicked appearance.
"Hahahahaha, sorry, hahahaha...... Your reaction is so funny, hahaha......" Miss rolled around on the bed holding her stomach.
"Hahaha, why can your face be so red hahahaha...... Ouch, my stomach hurts so much hahaha......"
Xiutru looked stunned in the laughter of the young lady, and stood in place in a daze, looking at the young lady rolling all over the bed and feeling angry and funny.
The young lady, who had laughed for a while, finally sat up wiping her tears: "Ah, I'm sorry Xiutru, I didn't mean to. The clouds in her tearful eyes dissipated, and a pair of large, bright eyes stared at Xiutru.
"Thank you."
