Chapter 150: 2-27 Lying
"I'm tired!" Flanda rightly tugged at Iroh's arm to prevent him from going any further.
"Miss, there may be some problems with your physical strength." Iroh reluctantly stopped.
He didn't know why Flanda's physical strength seemed to be endless when she practiced martial arts, but she was tired after running a few steps while in a hurry.
"It's because your physical strength is too good, so it seems that my physical strength is very poor, but in fact, my physical strength in our academy is still very good." Flanda said, "Shall we take a break here?" ”
"We ......"
"Mr. Knight, are you going to leave me alone?" Flanda put on a pitiful look with teary eyes again, and gently tugged at Iroh's sleeve.
I don't know when she learned this trick, anyway, as long as she pretends to be obedient and gently tugs at Iro's sleeve and sheds tears, Iroh will listen to him in everything.
"Miss, please...... Don't pretend anymore. Iroh said this, but stopped.
"You men like this little cutie type, don't you?" After Flanda's purpose was achieved, she simply didn't continue to pretend, she clasped her hands on her chest, found a bench to sit down, and then gently patted the seat next to her bench, motioning for Iroh to sit down and rest, otherwise she would not feel safe.
Iroh had no choice but to do so, and when he sat down, he replied to Flanda: "Don't generalize, and no one will like this kind of deliberate pretending, right?" At least I don't like it. ”
"Really? Mr. Knight doesn't like this kind of pretending to be pitiful...... Does that mean that Mr. Knight likes the kind of person who directly pounces on him and throws himself into his arms and catches Mr. Knight off guard? Flanda asked.
"I'm sorry, I don't like it either." Iroh sternly refused.
"Huh? Miss Mel, don't you like it either? Flanda asked, surprised.
Iroh was even more surprised: "Why do you think I like Mel?" ”
Flanda scratched her hair lightly, and then said, "I saw that you were all like this and that, and I thought there was something between you...... It's brother and sister who are affectionate, and they are not related by blood......"
"I did think of her as a sister before, but now I don't have that kind of thought, Mel has become stronger, and I don't need my protection anymore, and I won't protect her anymore." Iroh said.
"Mr. Knight likes the strong." Once again, Franda gave a strange answer that she didn't know how she had come up with it.
However, for this question, Iroh was unexpectedly serious, and he replied with a frown: "To be honest, I actually have an objection to Mel becoming stronger, her strength is not obtained through cultivation, so I don't like her very much with this kind of power." ”
"Did she also gain her power by making a pact with a demon?" Flanda asked, remembering her family's traditional rituals.
"It's not ......" I'm ashamed, the devil doesn't want you to sell your soul, but the angel does, I feel a little ironic to say this, but it's really a thing.
Flanda nodded slightly, and then said, "Why doesn't Mr. Knight like her with great power?" ”
"To give too much power to the unrighteous is to create trouble, and to give too much power to the mediocre is to waste power, and the power itself should belong to the good people, and Mel does not deserve this power, nor should he suffer the pain of having power." Iroh tells Flanda about his realization, and there is always a gap between him and Mel that cannot be filled, and that is Mel's dedication to the angel.
“…… I'm sorry, I thought you were getting close. Flanda stumbles upon this and what Iroh thinks of Mel, which makes her feel guilty.
"It doesn't matter, it's not like she doesn't know this." "I've said this kind of thing many times a long time ago, but she made her own decisions, and with the permission of the Pope, I have no right to interfere. ”
Flanda was silent for a moment, then whispered in a voice that only she could hear, "And what kind of girl does Mr. Elo like?" ”
"Miss, what are you talking about?"
"I ...... I mean, has Mr. Knight ever liked anyone before? If it's the opposite sex. Flanda asked.
Iroh turned his head sideways and thought for a moment, and then said: "I haven't liked anyone if I want love, but I have liked Her Royal Highness Elizabeth, the princess of New Cruise. ”
It's her! Flanda set off an uproar in her heart, and if Elizabeth was the target, Flanda estimated that she would not be able to surpass the other party in her life.
That's the heir of the orthodox royal family, or a woman who can snatch the inheritance from such a good Royal Highness Edward, that kind of excellence, it's simply ...... It's not something that ordinary people can achieve at all!
"But I can't tell you what it feels like, but it's gratitude? I guess, it was the day after my birthday, and it was a great honour for Her Highness Elizabeth to make pumpkin soup for me and Edward, and then to offer me belated birthday wishes. Iroh recounted.
Then, when he saw that Flanda stopped talking, he stopped talking nonsense to himself.
Both of them were silent for a while, and after a few tens of seconds, Flanda spoke: "I want to eat ice cream." ”
“…… Miss? Iroh was a little surprised by Flanda's ability to think quickly.
"There's a street from here, and you can buy ice cream all the way down the street, and I want to eat ice cream." Flanda repeated, pointing to one of the park's exits.
Although it is not a day or two that Flanda is suddenly willful, this kind of unprovoked and unreasonable willfulness still confuses Iroh.
"Mr. Knight, buy it for me." Flanda looked up at Iroh, who blinked her big flickering eyes, not squeezing tears or tugging at Iroh's sleeve.
"Okay." Iroh didn't continue to ask why, maybe Flanda really just wanted to eat ice cream, or maybe she just felt a little embarrassed to ask the previous question and couldn't let the conversation continue, all in all, Flanda said this, and Iroh was always right to follow suit.
He stepped down from the bench and said to Flanda, "Then the eldest lady is here and don't move, I'll be back later, is that okay?" ”
"Okay." Flanda nodded solemnly and obediently, although it was pretended, but it still gave people a slight sense of reassurance.
After Iroh left, Flanda immediately stepped down from the bench.
"I'm sorry, knight, I lied to you again." Flanda said softly, then turned away from the bench and walked towards the local academy.
